The old man quickly confirmed, "Yes."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people dressed in black emerged from the bamboo forest, surrounding Chu Qingzhi with crossbows in hand, their sharp tips aimed at her.
Chu Qingzhi glanced back and sneered at the feeble tactic.
A man in a blue robe emerged from behind the men in black, fanning himself and laughing, "I've long heard of Miss Chu's skills in business, martial arts, and medicine, but I didn't expect you to be so adept at mechanical tricks as well, breaking the formation with just a word. Truly impressive."
Chu Qingzhi raised her hand and flung several silver needles at the man in the blue robe, hitting him in the forehead, chest, dantian, and both shoulder blades.
