'Ling Xuan thought to himself.'
He had just seen Chi Heng holding Wen Qian, which put him on high alert.
Hearing this, Chi Heng raised an eyebrow. "No need."
'They were just a few low-level beastmen; they posed no threat to him at all. As for Wen Qian, he was confident he could protect her.'
"Suit yourself." Ling Xuan couldn't be bothered to argue with him anymore. 'This guy seems pretty stubborn.'
As he thought this, the young man glanced over at Li Jiu, who was sleeping soundly. 'This kid really has no situational awareness,' he thought.
After a moment, Ling Xuan turned, walked to the balcony, and vaulted over the railing.
'No matter what that guy says, I have to protect Wen Qian. It's an order from the Young Master, and I have to obey it no matter what.'
Seeing the man sit back down on the edge of the flowerbed, Ling Xuan watched as his eyes grew utterly still.
