Chapter 6 - 4 Trampling Dignity_1
The fire raged for two full hours before gradually dying down. An area several hundred meters in radius was burned to cinders. A light wind stirred, sending ash swirling, obscuring the moonlight and starlight.
BOOM!
A section of the ground split open, and Uncle Yuan leaped out, scanning his surroundings.
The fire had just died out, but the heat waves were still scorching enough to roast a person. Uncle Yuan, however, stood amidst them, completely unaffected.
Suddenly, with a flick of his wide sleeve, a fierce wind erupted, swiftly sweeping the rolling heat waves across the void into the distance.
Once the area cooled, he looked up at the starry sky, his old eyes reflecting a mixture of sorrow, relief, and reluctance.
He spent the entire night without sleep, guarding Qin Feiyang.
「At dawn.」
The sun slowly rose.
Qin Feiyang finally awoke from his deep sleep.
That night, he had no nightmares and felt an unprecedented sense of peace.
