However, the boy opposite did not give up. He actually took out a talisman from his pocket, which was clearly not a low-level talisman given by the elder!
"Yun Xin, I hate you!"
He glared at the little girl and said fiercely.
Just as he was uttering those harsh words, Tian Ning used a water talisman and an ice talisman to freeze him into a large block of ice!
The action was so swift that even the elders nearby didn't have time to react.
"What are you doing? How could you treat Young Master Ming like this!" The elder rushed forward and rescued the boy from the ice. He looked at Tian Ning sternly and said, "I will definitely report this to the family head and let the city lord know!"
"Oh," Tianning had already put the umbrella into her pouch. She casually tossed a recording stone in her hand and said indifferently, "Elder, you're moving like the wind now, but how come you couldn't move at all during that dangerous situation just now?"
The elder was clearly siding with the young masters of the Wang family, and was momentarily speechless upon hearing Tian Ning's words.
The low-level talisman he gave was just for show and wouldn't cause any real harm...
The elder looked warily at the recording stone in Tianning's hand, and didn't even bother to care about the boy he had just rescued:
"What are you doing with the recording stone? Hand it over!"
Tian Ning tilted his head and looked at him, asking in return, "The city lord has devoted himself to Snow City, and now he is guarding the city walls day and night to fight against the beast tide, but his children are being treated like this. What do you think the residents of Snow City would think if they saw what just happened?"
"You..." The elder was speechless for a moment, unable to utter a word of explanation, and could only say, "I won't tell the patriarch about this, and you'd better keep your mouth shut, the recording stone..."
But before he could finish speaking, the boy who had been rescued suddenly pushed aside the child next to him and ran away!
"Young Master Ming!"
The elder asked the other children to find someone, indicating that today's lesson was over.
It was freezing cold, and the boy ran out soaking wet. If he didn't change his clothes in time, he would definitely get sick!
Faced with such a chaotic situation, Tianning felt someone tug at the corner of her clothes.
Xin'er asked, "Sister, can you come with me to find him?"
"good."
Without asking any further questions, Tianning left with her.
The little girl seemed to know where the boy would be, and she took Tianning's hand and led him forward. On the way, Xin'er said, "His name is Wang Ming, and he is my uncle's son."
The uncle she was referring to was Wang Shengan.
"We used to be very close. He was like an older brother to me and would take care of me... But then beast tides started appearing in Snow City from time to time, and the tides became more and more frequent. Our father disappeared while protecting Snow City. At that time, he comforted me, saying that everything would be alright..." Xin'er spoke slowly, as if recalling something:
"My father and the others were missing for a long time. Then one day my father came back, but my uncle did not."
“He started to hate me after that. I know it’s because I have a father, and he doesn’t. But…” Xin’er stopped. They had reached their destination. The little girl’s gaze fell on the boy sitting by the lake in the distance, and tears welled up in her eyes: “That person isn’t my father either.”
Tianning knelt down and wiped away the little girl's tears with a handkerchief, saying, "That person isn't Xin'er's father or uncle, is he?"
The little girl nodded.
Her next words were completely unexpected: "I think... he, he's actually the guard who's with Father..."
