No sooner had she finished speaking than a pair of black boots embroidered with gold thread appeared in front of her.
A familiar, faint, cool fragrance permeated my senses.
Her instinct was to back away, but she forced herself not to move.
Instead, he tilted his head slightly and looked over calmly.
Familiar eyes,
Yet, the scent was unfamiliar.
Mo Yunhan was quite surprised.
How did this woman who appeared in Yishui Town end up in the palace and become the emperor's alchemist in the blink of an eye?
