Stone Bandits' Hideout

"Hey, it might be a bit dangerous, so if you want, you can return home for now and wait for me to finish." Yuan said to Tian Yanyu, who immediately frowned upon hearing his words.

"Are you still looking down on me? I told you that I can handle myself, right? If I turn out to be a burden, you can leave me alone to die because I will deserve it."

"Leave you to die…? You know very well I can't do that." Yuan said with a bittersweet smile.

"Alright, if you want to follow me, go ahead."

Tian Yanyu was a peak Spirit Lord despite her seemingly young age, so she could be considered quite talented for this world's standard.

Of course, since Yuan was suppressing his spiritual energy, Tian Yanyu was unaware of Yuan's cultivation as a peak Spirit King.

With that being said, Yuan didn't bother suppressing his aura, so she knew that he was a formidable individual— at least that's what her instincts and experience told her.
