The middle-aged man stared at Bai Manmei and didn't reply.
Inside, Bai Manmei felt somewhat panicky, and as the seconds ticked by, beads of sweat seemed to form on her brow.
It was over!
Her foster father must have noticed something!
Severe questioning would surely follow; how should she cope?
Could she really tell him that her life was controlled by someone and she was preparing to betray the Demon Race, leading the Human Clan to steal from the Demon Emperor's home?
Just when Bai Manmei's heart grew more and more frightened, the middle-aged man's voice floated over lightly.
"I know this person, but are you sure you want to know?"
Bai Manmei hesitated for a second, then gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, I want to know."
This time, the middle-aged man didn't hesitate but answered quite straightforwardly.
"Baili Zhan."
"He is the guardian of this round in the Forbidden Land."
