Bai Susu cleared her throat and cast her eyes toward the silent little black-haired girl.
Chen Ye and Qing Jun had already "submitted," leaving only the acceptance of her first disciple.
As long as she acknowledged her, her position within this household... no, this mountain would be solidly secured!
Zhiwei met her gaze, performing a polite salute before speaking with dignity:
"True Inheritor Bai's swordsmanship is exceptional, Zhiwei is impressed."
Her every move was flawless, impeccable.
Yet Bai Susu felt uneasy... it was too polite, polite to the point of formality.
Zhiwei continued in her cool and distant tone, "Thank you, True Inheritor Bai, for your assistance today in rescuing my master. This kindness, both my master and I will remember."
Her words expressed gratitude and highlighted the favor, while also aligning herself with her master.
It was as if she was an outsider... no, Bai Susu was indeed an outsider.
