Chapter 65
Below Mount Qingniu, a young man was seen rapidly approaching from the direction of Falling Leaves City. He was clad in coarse clothing and his face seemed covered with a layer of black ash, making his appearance less than attractive. However, upon closer inspection, one could see his eyes were dark and shimmering, with beads of sweat trickling down his neck, revealing the clean, fair skin beneath.
Surprisingly, this young man turned out to be a young woman in disguise. She vigilantly scanned her surroundings as she walked down the mountain path, fearing encounters with bandits on this unsafe road.
"What on earth is the mistress thinking! Putting herself in this predicament because of that scoundrel! And now, she's sending me to find that very scoundrel when trouble arises!"
This young woman was none other than Su Ying's maid, Xiao Die. She was headed to the rather notorious Frog Fort on this particular trip.
