After some thought, I realized I still needed to resolve the situation. If there really was an issue, it wouldn't be good for the Huang Family Immortal either.
I looked at the shadow on the wall and bowed with a smile, saying,
"Immortal Family, please give me some face. It seems they really might not know anything. I'll go back and ask on your behalf. Let's not have any misunderstandings. If one of our own gets hurt by mistake, that could affect your cultivation too, right?"
The shadow in the corner stirred, and the woman at my feet suddenly spoke up with a cold laugh,
"Who are you to claim a connection with my great-grandmother? Girl, don't you speak nonsense, or it will cost your whole family their lives."
Great-grandmother...
Huang Shufen is its great-grandmother, so now I've suddenly become safe.
