However, just because she wanted to avoid trouble did not mean that everyone felt the same. The young lady did not appear offended by her cold attitude, but the guard behind her was.

The guard took a step forward and shouted at An Jiuyue, “My master is asking you a question! Hurry up and reply!”

His gaze was fierce, as if he wanted to rip a chunk of An Jiuyue’s flesh off. His arrogant tone also suggested that he would not be polite to them if she did not respond to the young lady.

Qian Jiyun narrowed his eyes. Just as he was about to act, An Jiuyue noticed him and grabbed him, preventing him from hurting anyone.

“Forget it. There’s no need to argue.” She shook her head at Qian Jiyun and stored all the roasted meat in her space. “The meat is ready. Let’s eat as we walk.”

“Okay,” Qian Jiyun replied and glanced at the group of people.

Standing up, he took An Jiuyue’s hand, ready to leave.

“You…”

Qian Jiyun’s attitude seemed to enrage the young lady.

It was clear that she was a pampered young lady. She had never been so angry. Everyone around her had always catered to her since she was young. She had never seen anvone disregard her.

“Stop them!” she immediately ordered the guards behind her.

The guards glared at Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue like wolves, as though they were about to pounce on them.

“Sui Sui, forget it. They don’t—”

The young master standing next to the young lady wanted to intervene and dissuade her, but she pushed him away.

“Forget it? Can’t you see that they bullied me? Brother Yang, my father didn’t ask you to look after me just for you to make me angry. If you do this, I’ll tell my father, and your family will be… Hmph!”

Instead of completing her sentence, she snorted at the young master.

The young master could only look at Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue apologetically before retreating to the side.

“Ha!” An Jiuyue chuckled. Strange people truly existed everywhere.

“Jiyun, I was wrong.”

“I’m glad you realized.” Qian Jiyun raised his index finger and tapped the tip of her nose.

“Kindness is unnecessary in this world. There’s nothing to be hesitant about. You can do whatever you want.”

As he spoke, he flicked his sleeve fiercely at the group of people. The fire was still burning, but it flared even more from his Original Soul energy.

The flickering flames and the burning wood flew towards that group of people immediately.

The young lady only had time to shield her head before the flames reached her body. Her clothes burned immediately, and she was so terrified that she screamed and stomped her feet.

“Get down quickly!”

When the young master saw this, he rushed forward and pushed the young lady to the ground.

“Roll a few times to put out the fire!” he shouted at the young lady, but she clearly could not hear him and continued to scream.

The young master took a deep breath. He had no choice but to kick her, sending her rolling on the ground a few times before the flames on her body finally extinguished.

The others were not much better either. Their clothes were burned and tattered..
