"Master, I repeated everything you taught me to Wu Qiao Jun, and now she fully trusts me. What should I do next?" Aunt Liu asked cautiously.
Silence ensued in the darkness, and after a long pause, a deep voice slowly spoke.
"Don't bother with that foolish person for now. Let me ask you, was anyone following you before you came here?"
Aunt Liu was stunned, then shook her head immediately, "No, I took a massive detour to get here, no one could have followed me!"
"Haha, that's because you simply didn't notice! Someone has already arrived in the courtyard, do you still claim no one followed you?"
Aunt Liu was shocked, immediately turned around to look, but saw the courtyard completely empty, not a single shadow in sight.
"Since you are already here, there's no need to hide. Please show yourself so we can have a proper discussion! I have some matters I wish to negotiate as well."
