"I deserve to die?"
The girl yelled at Ji Qiuyu like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. "How can you say that? I only gave it some desserts by accident. I didn't know that it can't eat desserts. Besides, I didn't hurt anyone. That person didn't even say anything. Why are you showing off?"
Ji Qiuyu didn't expect that the girl would be so unreasonable.
The others couldn't stand it either. One of them shouted to the girl, "Miss, if it weren't for this trainer, your Red Phantom Dog would have caused a disaster and killed someone!"
"Right. If you can't take care of your pet, don't bring it out."
"How can you be a battle pet warrior when you don't know anything?"
Faced with the crowd's criticism, the young girl seemed to have not expected it and felt a little embarrassed. She gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at Ji Qiuyu. It was this' culprit 'who had caused her to fall into such an awkward situation.
"Miss, miss!"
Right then, three people ran over from outside the carriage. All of them were wearing black suits. The one in the lead was an old man in his sixties with half of his hair white. The moment he saw the girl, he dashed over to her.
When he saw the young girl's aggrieved expression, the old man was shocked. He quickly looked her up and down, and when he saw that she wasn't injured, he heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he turned his head, and his expression became cold as he looked at Ji Qiuyu.
"Who are you?"
The old man suddenly exuded an extremely dense killing intent, bringing with it a great sense of oppression. He stared sharply at Ji Qiuyu.
Ji Qiuyu's expression changed slightly. She turned pale and couldn't help but take half a step back.
At this moment, the expressions of the others in the surroundings abruptly changed as they looked at the old man in shock. This might was too strong. The old man's stooped body seemed to be infinitely taller at this moment, and he stood towering in the eyes of everyone like a giant. It was as if he could crush and annihilate all of them with a raise of his hand!
In the crowd, several seventh-rank battle pet warriors had been looking on coldly. The moment the old man unleashed his might, all of them turned pale.
That was … an eighth-rank battle pet warrior!
That old man who looked like a bodyguard was a master battle pet warrior!
The advanced battle pet warriors were bewildered. Who was this unruly girl to be called "Miss" by a master battle pet warrior?
They suddenly rejoiced that they hadn't spoken up earlier.
After the old man released his powerful aura, the surrounding people who were originally criticizing the young girl all kept quiet out of fear, not daring to make a sound.
Everyone could tell that this old man was not to be trifled with.
For such a terrifying person to call the young girl 'Miss', coupled with the young girl's unruly and arrogant appearance, she was most likely the daughter of some great power.
No one was willing to provoke trouble when they were outside.
Ji Qiuyu was sweating. She was only a fourth-rank battle pet warrior. Standing in front of a master battle pet warrior was already difficult for her.
She clenched her teeth and raised her head to look at the old man, but there was no fear in her eyes.
A glint of surprise rose in the old man's eyes. He could tell that the girl was merely a fourth-rank battle pet warrior. How could she withstand his aura? He had not exerted his full strength, but even the average sixth-rank battle pet warriors would tremble in fear in front of him. They would not have the courage to look at him.
"Tell me, what did you do to our young miss?"
The old man said coldly.
Before Ji Qiuyu could speak, a sneer suddenly sounded.
"What a powerful aura!"
The onlookers turned around.
An old man with white hair and a ruddy complexion walked out from a single room. He was wearing plain clothes and a cold smile. The old man slowly took a step forward. The next second, he appeared in front of Ji Qiuyu like a phantom. It was as if the distance between them had been shortened to an inch.
At the same time, a surge of energy burst out from the old man.
Another master battle pet warrior!
The several advanced battle pet warriors in the corner were stunned.
They didn't know that the young girl would have a master battle pet warrior with her.
The others were shocked beyond words. In their eyes, the old man with white hair and a ruddy complexion was similarly towering and huge. He was on par with the old man in the black suit and did not lose out at all.
The old man in the black suit was startled. He didn't know that the young girl would have a master battle pet warrior behind her.
"You allow the vicious dog to hurt people and you want to use violence to intimidate people. How impressive!" The old man with white hair and a ruddy complexion sneered.
With his appearance, the pressure on Ji Qiuyu's body suddenly lightened, as if a huge protective umbrella had enveloped her. She heaved a sigh of relief and turned to the old man beside her. "Grandpa, why did you come out?"
"Someone was going to bully my granddaughter if I didn't come out." The old man smiled.
The old man in the black suit frowned. "You've misunderstood. I'm a master battle pet warrior. I wouldn't attack a young girl."
Ji Zhantang sneered. Indeed, he hadn't done anything. But he had already been rude enough to intimidate people!
"I just want to know. What did you do to our young miss?" The old man in the black suit pulled a long face. While Ji Zhantang was a master battle pet warrior, they were in the Longjiang Base City and the Longjiang Base City was their territory. The old man in the black suit was confident that he could kill both the old man and his granddaughter!
"Why don't you ask your young miss?" Ji Zhantang sneered.
"Steward Huang, they were bullying me …"
As soon as Ji Zhantang finished his sentence, the young girl came back to her senses and complained to the old man in the black suit.
The old man in the black suit pulled a long face.
He would be derelict in his duty if his young miss was humiliated.
Ji Qiuyu pulled a long face after hearing the girl's words. "It was clearly your battle pet that went out of control and almost killed someone. Who bullied you?"
"You!" The young girl glared at her.
Lost control of her battle pet? When the old man in the suit heard their conversation, he glanced at the Red Phantom Dog beside the girl's feet and immediately guessed what was going on. This was not the first time something like this had happened. Previously, someone's legs were bitten off, but they paid for the incident to be resolved. Could it be that the same thing was happening here?
This time, they had a master battle pet warrior with them. The old man in the black suit had to be reasonable. He looked around and found two of the more timid ones. He told them to come over.
The two of them were a little frightened when they were suddenly called out, but they still braced themselves and walked over.
The old man in the black suit calmed down and asked them about what had happened.
The two of them were trembling with fear but they told him everything.
The two of them said the same thing.
Soon, the old man in the black suit understood what had happened. He was upset. Indeed, they were in the wrong.
From their conversation, the old man in the suit was able to tell that the girl was a trainer. She must be very talented to be able to tame the Red Phantom Dog at such a young age. Besides, she didn't do anything to his young lady. There was no reason for the old man to make things difficult for her.
This was the time to test his ability as a steward.
Not only combat strength, but also speaking skills.
To admit that he was wrong would be a disgrace to his family head.
On the other hand, to refuse to admit that he was wrong would be unreasonable. It would be even more humiliating.
"You're the one who was frightened, right?"
The old man in the black suit ignored Ji Zhantang and his granddaughter. He went straight to the victim. He was trying to teach the old man and his granddaughter a lesson, implying that they were the victim and that they shouldn't be meddling in other people's business.
"Frightened?"
Su Ping wasn't used to this description. "Sort of."
The old man in the suit raised his eyebrows. He glanced at Su Ping's backpack and his clothes. The old man had been in and out of the upper class for many years and was familiar with many famous brands. He could tell at a glance that this young man was dressed from head to toe in clothes sold at street stalls.
Everything he was wearing was no more than three hundred coins.
Why would such a young man book a single room in a carriage that cost over a hundred thousand coins? The old man couldn't understand. Had Su Ping sold his ancestral home and was planning to move away?
The old man didn't think too much about it. He reached into his pocket and took out a stack of astral coins.
As a servant, he was used to carrying the money with him, just to clean up after his young miss.
"Here are ten thousand astral coins as compensation." The old man in the black suit handed the money to Su Ping as if he were giving alms to a beggar.
