Chapter 23: Must Protect
The person who walked inside the store was a new face—someone Noa couldn't recognize.
'New customer?' he exclaimed, nearing the entrance to greet him.
The man seemed to be in his late thirties, his dark eyes scanning the store.
He had quite unusual attire for this world. His robes were longer than usual, touching the ground.
"Hello," Noa said. "Are you interested in my products?"
He asked because he noticed how the man's gaze lingered on the shelves.
Mo Wusheng's robes glowed with unrecognizable runes, probably self-inscribed with a sword.
"I am searching for a girl," he announced rudely.
His eyes still darted through the store, not noticing Yun Qiqi sleeping behind the counter. "She is a bearer of the Disaster Seed, and you better not hide her."
Mo Wusheng continued speaking as he pleased, even warning Noa.
"Who?" Noa blinked.
