Chapter 166: Wretched Fate (1)
Eun Han-Seol looked around, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. She was currently in Chang'an, Shaanxi Province.
Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, still had many remnants of its former glory. It was the starting and ending point for merchants traveling the Silk Road to and from the Western Regions.
The Silver Horse Merchant Association planned to stay in Chang'an for a day, so Yoo Jang-Hwan told her the departure time tomorrow and let her explore freely until then.
Alone for the first time in a while, Eun Han-Seol headed to a quiet street on the outskirts called Phoenix Immortal Road.
Crowded places irritated her, and she quite liked the serenity of this place. Thus, after coming here, she removed the veil around her face, revealing her beauty.
Although she had ceased aging at sixteen, wherever she went, her unique presence and beauty attracted attention. Already, passersby on the street were glancing at her and whispering about her appearance.
Eun Han-Seol let out a small sigh. No matter where she went, it was always like this. Like beasts in heat, men revealed their lustful desires whenever they saw her. Such dull creatures.
She slipped out of sight and entered a nearby inn.
"Welcome! What…" the waiter greeted, but his voiced trailed off mid-speech, mesmerized by Eun Han-Seol's beauty.
