Chapter 152

The Golden Core Elder, of lowly birth, felt a surge of annoyance upon encountering such a haughty woman, sporting a condescending attitude. He wished he could knock the woman unconscious and take her away.

However, he had his ways. He had an ample supply of drugs on him, including an illusion spell-inducing drug he had concocted. When putting away the gold coins, he dabbed a bit of the drug onto a bottle in his Storage Bag, all the while giving Long Feifeng a peculiarly unsettling smile.

The drug wafted through the air, and Long Feifeng, unsuspecting, found the Taoist's smile strikingly handsome, shaking her head in disbelief.

"Miss, the husband you seek stands before you," the Taoist said. "Follow me and you will learn the identity of your betrothed."

"Hmm, Taoist, you have a very handsome smile," she remarked.

Long Feifeng and her maid stepped into the illusion, nodding in agreement with the Taoist's words.
