The female Taoist priest had a quiet nature and was thin-skinned, fearing most to be pointed at and gossiped about.
Seeing Xu Qing in her flamboyant appearance now, she thought it would be best to pretend not to know her.
As for the Golden Simurgh in the cage greeting her with clucks, Yizhen also pretended not to know it.
Xu Qing was like a monk struck dumb, utterly bewildered.
Not until she saw the rat following behind Xuan Yu did Xu Qing suddenly understand: "Why on earth did you bring a rat with you when you went out? What kind of player likes to play with these?"
"Look, you've scared the senior sister away."
Xuan Yu was utterly confused. In its eyes, rats were adorable. The Cat Immortal Hall received many requests, most of which were for handling rat infestations. If it didn't deal with rats, this hall's business would be cut by more than half.
Arriving at the Flower and Bird Market, one could see people playing with cats and walking dogs everywhere.
