Capítulo 144: Love Rival

The air in the train became oppressive as Leila looked angrily at Renaud. Even the powerful yin-yang master could not withstand the wrath of a woman scorned by his careless words.

"I did not mean to offend," Renaud realised he sounded insulting and tried to explain. "I meant it is a very hidden shop with a lot of rules. I did not think you would be familiar with it. Even people from Ghost City don't know it."
