Arriving at a shop, Junlin bought several pieces of clothing for Anning, and then commissioned a few more.
After changing into her brand-new clothes, An Ning looked completely transformed, and her shy demeanor was incredibly adorable.
No one would have guessed that not long ago, An Ning was a dirty little beggar.
An Ning looked at the clothes she was wearing, her eyes revealing joy.
She also likes pretty clothes, but in the past, if she looked at them for too long, she would be chased away.
Thinking of this, An Ning pursed her lips and gripped Jun Lin's sleeve even tighter.
She was terrified that this was all just a dream, and that when she woke up, she would still be stuck in that cold, damp alley corner, eating moldy food.
If she could, she wouldn't want to wake up from this dream.
Bang—
The sudden sound startled An Ning, and she quickly hid behind Jun Lin.
What's that noise?
Junlin, somewhat curious, pulled An Ning away from the shop, only to find the very person before him—the chosen one of destiny, Lin Shuangxing!
At this moment, Lin Shuangxing was standing in front of a girl, gently comforting her, while his Wildfire Deer intercepted a carriage.
Clearly, the commotion just now was caused by this guy.
Junlin's gaze swept over the group, and he immediately understood the current situation: the chosen one had come to the rescue!
It's such a classic and clichéd plot, old-fashioned, but still enjoyable.
Soon, a young man stepped out of the carriage. Looking at Lin Shuangxing, who had stopped his carriage, he said with a gloomy face and an icy tone, "Boy, do you know what you're doing?"
Lin Shuangxing turned around and snorted coldly, "Of course I know. I'm saving people. But what about you? What if you hurt someone while controlling your magical beasts in the street?"
The boy scoffed, "Heh, so what if you're hurt? People who can't even give way are just wasting air."
"you……"
Lin Shuangxing was stunned, seemingly not expecting the other party to say that. This guy is a beast.
"Damn it!"
Lin Shuangxing cursed inwardly, retrieved the Wildfire Deer, and pulled the girl she had rescued aside.
He didn't want to waste his time arguing with the other party.
Lin Shuangxing's concession only emboldened the young man, who stepped down from the carriage and said coldly, "What? You want to leave? Did you ask me first?"
As the son of the city lord, how could he let the guy off so easily when he was taught a lesson by some unknown brat?
Lin Shuangxing frowned slightly and gestured for the girl beside her to go first.
Then he said, "The mistake was entirely yours. I'm not going to hold it against you. What more do you want?"
The boy merely sneered upon hearing this, then waved his hand.
Suddenly, two vortexes appeared, and two giant pythons emerged from them, charging directly at Lin Shuangxing.
[Rare Mythical Beast: Crimson-Striped Python, Tier 5, Fire and Poison Dual Attributes]
The system immediately informed Junlin of the information regarding the two crimson pythons.
Jun Lin raised an eyebrow. "Fifth rank, huh? Looks like it was given to you by someone in your family."
While Lin Shuangxing was confronting the boy, the people around them were also discussing it.
What they were discussing was the boy's identity.
The son of the city lord of Xueling City, also known as the young city lord, is named Xueye. He is a spoiled brat who acts recklessly in Xueling City because of his status.
He bullied men and women, committed all sorts of evil deeds, and countless people were displaced, their families destroyed, and their lives ruined because of him.
But there was nothing they could do; he was the city lord's son.
Who can impose sanctions? Who dares to impose sanctions?
Most people have no choice but to swallow their anger and act obsequiously when they see the other party. Although they lose their dignity, they can save their lives.
"That's really bad."
Junlin couldn't help but sigh. He wanted to kill this kid. How could there be someone worse than him in this world?
However, he couldn't be too violent in front of An Ning, since in the little guy's eyes, he was a good person.
Therefore, we need to find a secret opportunity to take him down.
Anyway, this kid has offended the chosen one, so the result is death. So what difference does it make who he dies at?
An Ning huddled behind Jun Lin, trembling. Her small hands, gripping Jun Lin's sleeve, turned white with fear.
Sensing something was wrong, Junlin turned around and frowned when he saw An Ning's fearful expression. "What's wrong?" he asked.
"go home."
An Ning looked up at Jun Lin, her voice full of pleading.
"good."
Junlin nodded. Although he hadn't figured out the reason yet, since the little guy had made such a request, he would go back and discuss it later.
"Let's go, Rou Rou."
Junlin called out to Errou, who was buying sesame cakes at a nearby shop.
Okay~
Errou smiled and responded, then walked over with the sesame seed cake, handing one to An Ning as well.
But at this moment, An Ning had her head down and looked very nervous.
Seeing this, Errou asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"I'm not sure yet. I'll ask when I get back."
Junlin shook his head. An Ning's condition wasn't right; they should go back first.
Thinking this, Junlin picked up An Ning.
An Ning's trembling body calmed down considerably, and she buried her face in Jun Lin's arms, remaining still.
Errou looked at An Ning curiously. She felt that An Ning must have been stimulated by something, since she was fine when she was buying clothes.
On the way back, Junlin inquired about An Ning's situation from the system.
An Ning is a man of few words, so it will probably be difficult for her to explain clearly.
[It's very simple. The reason An Ning ended up like this is because of Xue Ye. The reason is that An Ning's parents offended Xue Ye, and as a result, their entire family was wiped out that very night.]
An Ning was hiding under the bed and watched all of this, but to be honest, she's only alive now because of good fortune.
However, because of you, she is no longer protected by good fortune.
Upon hearing this, Junlin paused, realizing that it made sense.
This Xueye, or rather the Xue family, is actually a whetstone prepared by Heaven for Lin Shuangxing, the chosen one.
Therefore, even if he intercepts An Ning, Lin Shuangxing will still incur the wrath of the Xue family for various reasons, ultimately leading to the destruction of the Xue family.
Back at my lodgings.
An Ning had already fallen asleep in Jun Lin's arms, but her little hands were still tightly gripping Jun Lin's clothes.
"So cute!"
Yun Ruoxi and Lan Xier were amazed when they saw An Ning, who had changed her clothes, especially her sleeping posture, which was extremely cute.
Junlin gently placed An Ning on the sofa.
To be honest, he hasn't stretched his muscles in a long time, so this time he'll take on this so-called Xue family.
"Brother-in-law, An Ning seemed to be afraid of something just now. Was it that young city lord? Or those two snakes?" Er Rou asked.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. Nothing had happened along the way, but as soon as that young city lord appeared, problems arose.
Junlin nodded. "Yes, it's that young city lord, so I'm going to go and annihilate him."
