章節 874: 403 Frenzy (first update)

Gu Jiao subconsciously turned her head away.

She saw a woman wearing a pale green cloak with opulent attire emerge. It wasn't the ostentatious kind of opulence but a low-key luxury felt through the texture and quality of dress.

A plain white veil covered her face, barely revealing a prominent nose bridge, and a pair of eyes under the cloak's hood, calm and collected.

She looked very young, with hardly any fine lines around her eyes, yet there was a noble and elegant aura about her, as if the years had refined it, causing Gu Jiao to believe she might be a few years older than the Yao Family matron.

An unbidden thought flashed through Gu Jiao's mind—time never defeated a true beauty.

However, Gu Jiao's target was not the beauty in the room.

Gu Jiao hadn't forgotten that she was here to inquire with a Yan Country pharmacist about how to purchase the services of the Dragon Shadow Guard. She clapped her hands and stood up, heading inside without giving the beauty another glance.
