Chapter 30: With a wave of his hand, the dense crowd of animals fled
A group of snakes spit out their tongues at Zhou Jinyu, staring at her with their dark eyes.
Other animals followed the snakes, as if they would attack Zhou Jinyu as soon as the snakes gave the order.
Just as Zhou Jinyu was confronting the group of animals, a man appeared in the garden, glaring at her and asking rudely, "Is that Qing Yuan you were bullying?"
Zhou Jinyu didn't say anything, but just looked at his face.
Oh, so you are He Qingyuan’s admirer. No wonder these animals have her scent, but it is not very strong.
"Don't think that you can cover up the fact that you bullied Qing Yuan by keeping silent."
The man said in a deep voice: "I came here today to stand up for her."
After he finished speaking, he took out a whistle and blew it, and the animals, led by a snake, crawled towards Zhou Jinyu in a dense group.
The number is so large that it makes people feel physically uncomfortable just looking at it.
Even Zhou Jinyu felt that they were too dense and ugly.
She waved her hand, and the group of animals stopped moving as if someone had pressed the pause button.
"Get out of here!"
Zhou Jinyu shouted, and the suspended animals suddenly jumped away in all directions.
The man was stunned for a few seconds, then shouted at them, "Come back here."
It’s a pity that no animal listened to him.
In just over ten seconds, they all disappeared.
Zhou Jinyu crossed his arms, sneered at the man, and said sarcastically, "It seems that your ability to taming beasts is just so-so."
The exasperated man glared at her and said, "It seems I underestimated you."
When he heard He Qingyuan crying about how great Zhou Jinyu was, he thought she might be exaggerating because she was not well-trained. But now, after competing with Zhou Jinyu, he found that He Qingyuan was not exaggerating at all, she was actually underestimating the truth.
Zhou Jinyu said nonchalantly, "If you feel underestimated, just do it yourself."
"Just go ahead."
The man had a dagger in his hand and came towards Zhou Jinyu.
Zhou Jinyu took a look at the dagger in his hand and became interested.
It is made of the finest black iron and can cut gold into mud. It would be a waste to let this bootlicker hold it in his hands. It would be better to give it to her.
Ensure that everything is put to good use.
With this plan in mind, Zhou Jinyu acted quickly and kicked the aggressive man in the abdomen, knocking him to the ground.
“…”
The man lying on the ground, looking at the stars in the sky, was completely confused.
He really didn't expect that he couldn't even handle a single move from Zhou Jinyu.
"Give me your dagger."
Zhou Jinyu looked down at him and asked for the dagger.
The man hid the dagger and said cautiously: "This is mine, are you trying to rob me?"
"How can a pretty girl like you be a robber?"
He frowned in disgust.
Zhou Jinyu sneered, "You can bring a group of animals to bully me, and I can't snatch your dagger by force?"
"You're the typical example of someone who only allows officials to set fires but doesn't allow ordinary people to light lamps. You're so shameless."
She was sarcastic.
The man's handsome face flushed red, and he knew he was in the wrong. He said with a weak voice, "Who told you to bully Qing Yuan first? I'm just seeking justice for her."
"She was the first to say that the talisman I drew was fake. So, why can't she allow me to fight back?"
Zhou Jinyu choked.
“…”
The man was confused. Is this possible?
Whenever He Qingyuan saw him, she started crying and complaining about how Zhou Jinyu bullied the weak. He then automatically imagined how arrogant and unreasonable she was.
I didn't expect there was such a connection.
"No wonder she allowed you to admire her. It turns out you're just the same kind of people."
Zhou Jinyu continued to sarcastically comment.
They are all selfish people who only allow officials to set fires but not the people to light lamps.
Although the man knew that there might be a hidden story behind He Qingyuan's so-called bullying, he would not allow Zhou Jinyu to tell the girl he had a crush on.
"Shut up! Qingyuan is cute and kind, she's not the kind of person you say she is. Besides, she doesn't even know I like her."
He said angrily.
Zhou Jinyu sneered, and the mockery on his face became even more pronounced.
"If she didn't know you loved her, would she run to you and cry?"
She exposed it, "She just wants to enjoy your efforts but doesn't want to be with you, so she plays dumb. Only a bootlicker like you who can't tell right from wrong would treat her unconditionally. If she were a smarter man, after giving her so much, he would at least ask for something in return."
The man became even angrier. "I've already told you that Qing Yuan isn't that kind of person. How long are you going to continue slandering her?"
Zhou Jinyu spat out two words in disgust: "Idiot."
"That's enough."
The man was furious.
"If you don't want me to tell you, give me the dagger."
Zhou Jinyu asked for the dagger again.
He said she was a robber. Okay, she had some manners and asked him for it.
The man hid the dagger tightly. Zhou Jinyu was not in a hurry, but said slowly: "It's okay if you don't give it to me. I can post the story of how He Qingyuan used green tea to lure men to the metaphysics group. I believe they will like this gossip."
"You are not allowed to do this. It will ruin Qing Yuan's character."
The man said anxiously.
Although he didn't know whether Zhou Jinyu really had a metaphysics group, he didn't allow her to tell anyone about it. He Qingyuan clearly didn't even keep him in suspense, so why should he be slandered by her?
"Don't you want me to tell you? Take the dagger in exchange."
Zhou Jinyu said again: "I don't like to say something more than the third time. This is your last chance."
After struggling for a moment, the man agreed to her request.
"Give."
He handed the dagger to Zhou Jinyu, and when he saw her taking it and looking at it with satisfaction, he felt his heart break.
It took him a long time to make this dagger, and he wore it preciously every day. Unexpectedly, Zhou Jinyu took it away the first time he took it out of the sheath.
"Hey, be careful not to break it."
He couldn't help but remind her roughly.
"It's made of the finest black iron. It won't break even if you chop your head off. If you don't believe me, why not try it?"
As Zhou Jinyu spoke, she approached the man with a dagger, frightening him so much that his pupils shrank suddenly and his heart almost jumped out of his throat.
He is the master of the dagger and knows how sharp it is better than anyone else.
It is true that gold can be turned into mud.
Zhou Jinyu retracted the dagger and said disdainfully, "You are so timid."
“…”
The man's face flushed.
Zhou Jinyu kicked him and said, "Since this dagger suits my taste, you can go now."
The man got up from the ground, but did not leave immediately. Instead, he bargained with Zhou Jinyu: "You took my dagger, so you must keep your word and not speak ill of Qing Yuan, otherwise I will never let you go."
"Not finished yet?"
Zhou Jinyu crossed his arms and sneered, "You're really used to being a bootlicker. You've already been defeated by me, and you're still thinking about begging for mercy from Qing Yuan."
"I'm happy to be a lickspittle, what's it to you?"
The man choked back, "If I knew..."
Before he could finish his words, his neck was grabbed by an invisible hand.
Zhou Jinyu raised his hand to pick at his ear. "I hate being threatened the most. How about I cut off your tongue?"
The man couldn't help but shiver several times.
He could tell from Zhou Jinyu's expression that she was not joking.
"Don't... don't mess around, or the sect behind me will definitely not forgive you."
He stuttered.
Zhou Jinyu sneered: "He's just a disciple who can control animals. Do you think I'm afraid?"
She is not even afraid of ancient ferocious beasts, so why would she be afraid of modern small animals with thin spiritual energy?
