She looked at Bai Fong in shock. Did she just call the Human-Faced Owl "Aunt"? From Qian Mo's understanding, despite the girl appearing to be in her late teens, even younger than Bai Fong, she was likely old enough to be Bai Fong's great-grandmother!
"Ah~ It's still my niece Bai Fong who knows how to speak. Unlike that thick-headed Bai Feng, who keeps calling others 'senior' and annoying them! Look at this, she's getting angry! Aunt Bai Yin came this time just to help you two out! Huh? Who is this human?"
Suddenly pulling out a large red feather fan to cover her face, she gently waved it, causing the fire circle surrounding Bai Feng to instantly vanish. It seemed she had no intention of harming Bai Feng; she just wanted to tease her.
At that moment, aside from being covered in dirt and having a tattered cloak, Bai Feng had no injuries at all...
If it were any other time (why do I even say 'any other time'...), she would have definitely mocked this stubborn kid who insisted on calling her 'senior'. But now, Bai Yin's attention was entirely focused on Qian Mo.
Dressed in rags with no discernible style, it was impossible to judge their origins... they were unmistakably human, without any distinctive features. By human aesthetic standards, they were passably attractive. Since Bai Fong had started whispering with him as soon as she arrived here, she didn't even bother saving her brother... Tsk tsk... This little girl was at an age where humans typically start considering love and marriage... No, as an aunt, I need to properly assess my niece's potential husband!
Her eyes glowed with intensity, as if she could see straight into his soul. When Qian Mo met that gaze, he instantly felt exposed, as if he were naked and being scrutinized from all angles.
I must say, Qian Mo's sensitivity is truly remarkable!
If there are indeed similarities between owls and the Human-Faced Owl Clan, it might be their exceptional vision. Bai Yin's fiery eyes could even penetrate the souls of weaker beings; calling it mind-reading would not be an exaggeration.
But what did she see now? An incredibly powerful soul! Beyond that, a void of darkness... Even more alarming was that she could sense something terrifying emanating from that darkness! Bai Yin felt like a colossal joke; how could a human soul instill fear in her, a proud member of the Human-Faced Owl Clan?
"Hehe, it seems that even if I hadn't come this time, you two siblings wouldn't have been bullied!"
With the fan covering her face and her eyes slightly narrowed in amusement, Bai Yin spoke teasingly while keeping her almond-shaped eyes fixed on Qian Mo.
"Uh... Bai Yin... Miss?"
Qian Mo cautiously chose his words, fearing he might offend this somewhat eccentric Human-Faced Owl. Seeing that she showed no signs of rejection eased his mind. In truth, he didn't want to step forward so soon, but judging by Bai Yin's demeanor, if he didn't speak up now, she might take action herself...
"As you can see, I am indeed a human and bear no hostility; I'm here solely to assist the Bai Feng siblings. Moreover, I have some connections with Bai Xu as well, so I believe our goals should align."
"Oh? You have connections with Bai Xu? As far as I know, Bai Xu was granted control over this vast territory five hundred years ago. During these five centuries, while he has treated humans well enough, the only ones he has truly interacted with are these two siblings. Now you tell me you have ties with him? A human whose lifespan barely spans a few decades—could you really have known him five hundred years ago?"
