Judging from his appearance, he must have seen most of what happened earlier.
Since that's the case... I have no choice but to pretend again.
Xu Nian's eyes reddened, and she covered her bleeding ear, choking back tears, "I don't know martial arts either, so of course I couldn't dodge the general's attack, nor could I. I just don't understand why the general would attack a girl like me who can't even kill a chicken. It's really inhumane and heartless!"
Seeing her cry, the man frowned and then turned his gaze to the carcasses of the wolves.
There are many wolves in these deep mountains. He was worried that the girl might encounter something bad if she came out alone, so he planned to follow her. But he saw that she was holding something in her hand and had burned these vicious wolves like this.
The wolves in the deep mountains are cunning. They would usually roll around and extinguish a fire, but the fire she had was magical. It instantly burned these experienced old wolves so badly that they couldn't move. The fire was so intense that in the blink of an eye, only a few corpses remained.
"Useless? A girl who can't even kill a chicken can easily subdue a wolf?" Gu Zhan pulled her up, his eyes filled with coldness.

He stared at her for a moment, and seeing that her expression didn't seem to be feigned, he pondered and said, "It would be best if it were as you say."
Who is this person?!
Xu Nian really didn't want to pay attention to him. She squatted down and picked through the pile of elm seeds, muttering under her breath, "Not only did he refuse to help, but he also wasted so much of my food..."
The other person's face was dark, and he remained silent.
