By the time Fan Er emerged from the small alley, the green-robed young woman had already stepped into the Dust Medicinal Shop.
As soon as she made her way into the shop, all of the female employees inside were instantly struck by a sense of inferiority in her presence. Her beauty was so stunning that it put them to shame in comparison.
In contrast with how polite and easygoing Fan Er was, the young woman was far less approachable, and she made her way directly toward the doorway that led to the backyard, while none of the female employees in the shop dared to stop her.
Zheng Dafeng was sitting on the steps outside, smoking his pipe.

However, the clan did have a branch descendant who had left the clan many years before and since become a virtuous scholar of Lake View Academy.
Even though he had never returned to the Hou Clan following his departure, the Hou Clan had benefited immensely from his status, and they sent people to pay their respects to him every year.
Aside from an intercontinental ship to Stalactite Mountain, the Hou Clan also controlled the largest number of routes from Old Dragon City to Complete Reed Continent, most of which were quite short in length, ranging from tens of thousands of kilometers to around 150,000 kilometers.
