Upon hearing this, the woman was stunned for a moment, followed by a warm surge up her chest; all she had hoped for was to leave with her life intact, but now not only had she saved her life, she had also obtained a Protective Magical Artifact. This... this was like a dream come true!
It is worth noting that defensive Magic Artifacts are much rarer and more precious than purely offensive ones.
It was also at this moment that the woman was deeply moved by Yang Xiao. Having spent quite some time in Xiang Ma Town, she had seen the ruthless, the greedy and lascivious, and those who plotted and schemed with daggers hidden behind their smiles; but she had never seen anyone as generous as the man before her. She now sort of understood why such a young man had been able to take the high position of Pingxi Marquis and become one of the Four Major Families in the town.
