A little girl?
The Masked Mansion Soldiers found it baffling. They knew this place was on the outskirts of Qishan, not far from Shu Dao Mountain. With towering mountains and dense forests, there were hardly any registered villages around—only countless swirling bandit dens. Traders would not dare travel this road without Messenger escorts.
The little girl before them wasn't even half their height. Her face was plump and fair, and her attire was quite refined, clearly indicating noble descent... How could she be walking alone in such a place?
To become a Messenger within the Mansion Soldiers system, one could be corrupt to the core, but none would be foolish enough to confuse the influential with the ordinary. When traveling, one must be cautious of the elderly, young, sick, and crippled because everyone knows they are easy to bully, yet they've survived until now. This alone proves they are not to be messed with.
"Halt!"
