"Um... may I ask how old you are this year?"
Tang Shishi asked not about being in her twenties because she knew that once someone reached a certain level of strength, their appearance wouldn't change much.
Just like before, Li Li appeared to be just over twenty, but Xia Shuyun called him "Grandfather."
Therefore, Tang Shishi speculated that Xia Shuyun's age couldn't be particularly young either, after all, she didn't know how long Li Li had been alive.
"I just turned twenty the day before yesterday, and after I completed the coming-of-age ceremony, my mother passed Ascend Cloud Sect on to me," Xia Shuyun said, the dessert in her mouth not preventing her from speaking, albeit a bit unclearly.
She indeed was starving.
Even if, after reaching a certain strength, one could sustain themselves on internal energy without eating, she would always feel strange without food.
In fact, she wouldn't have any problem not eating now, but eating had become her habit.
