"Huff—"
Bai Ting'er let out a long breath, patting her not-so-small chest.
"Imperial edict and the Anomaly Suppression Bureau, I'm almost scared to death."
The few women of Five Beauties Manor had lived on the outskirts of Yingshan Town for years, rarely even going to the county town. When had they ever experienced such scenes?
Especially Bai Ting'er, whose courage was the smallest. If not for her successful cultivation and having Lu Zheng by her side, she would have wet herself out of fear.
"What are you afraid of?" Lu Zheng seemed unconcerned, "We're helping the Great Jing Dynasty stabilize the populace; what can they do to us? Speaking of which, I think Emperor Jing is a bit stingy—just gave us a plaque, didn't even mention anything like spiritual pills or fruits."
"Mundane matters remain mundane," Liu Qingyan laughed, "I was rewarded as a physician, so naturally, Emperor Jing won't gift me cultivation items."
