"Who do you think the girl we just brought in is? I think the sword she's holding is no ordinary weapon."
"Who knows? Could she be his future wife?"
"I don't think so. We've been squatting here for so many days and haven't found any connection between the Han family and Guying. Perhaps the appearance of this girl will bring about a change in things."
