Thud, thud, thud…
A series of light footsteps approached, getting closer and closer.
Immediately after, a graceful figure appeared at the top of the stairs, clad in white that hugged her frame, swaying gently in a show of elegance.
"Hmm? It's you?" Zhou Dao suddenly stood up, his face showing surprise.
The person was none other than Zhao Lingfeng, the Seven Kills Sect Saintess who had appeared in the Great Zhou Imperial Mausoleum that day.
"The woman who practices with knives!"
Qin Baichu clenched her teeth, her beautiful eyes filled with deep hostility.
"Little Zhou Dao, we meet again." Zhao Lingfeng's lips curled slightly upward as her gaze settled on Zhou.
"Not calling me 'Aunt' anymore?"
"Uh…"
Zhou Dao's face turned red, and he quickly glanced at Qin Baichu beside him.
"Is she your mother?"
Zhao Lingfeng's gaze turned cold as she looked at the Crown Princess standing beside him.
"What if I am?"
