“Is it the place where Uncle Jiyun fought the big demonic beast?” Qian Yizheng asked.
They had never been to the new camp, but they had seen a demonic beast taller than a mountain. It was truly terrifying! Since the guardians had driven it away, the camp should be in disarray again, right?
“Uncle Jiyun, the camp hasn’t been destroyed, right?” Qian Yirong asked.
He had heard from Uncle Yan Nuo that it was very difficult to obtain some things on Huayan Peak.
If this camp was destroyed, everyone would have to squeeze together to sleep. How uncomfortable would that be?
“If you want to know what happened to it, you can come with me to take a look. Then you’ll find out.” Qian Jiyun led the two of them out of the camp quickly and headed for the new camp.
Meanwhile, in the tent, Lan Zhiyi and An Jiuyue were glaring at each other.
An Jiuyue felt a little helpless.
She looked at him for a long time before asking, “What’s going on? Why are you acting like this? That’s your brother-in-law.”
“He’s not,” Lan Zhiyi denied. How could he be worthy of having a brother-in-law like him?
“Sister, have you forgotten how you suffered so much because of him?”
He did not see An Jiuyue five years ago. He only heard from the butler that his father had chased her out when she returned with the two babies.
He had wanted to chase after her back then, but he was only 12 years old. He was also the son of a concubine and did not have much status.
After the butler stopped him, his father ordered him to be thrown into the woodshed and locked up.
By the time he was released, he could no longer find his sister. He even heard his father and the butler murmuring about an assassin they had sent to kill his sister. However, the assassin had failed and would be blamed for his incompetence.
They talked about capturing Lan Zhiyi and handing him over to someone before using him to lure his sister out.
After all, he was An Jiuyue’s younger brother. She cared about his life.
Upon hearing that, he broke out in a cold sweat from fright. Firstly, he was concerned about his safety. Secondly, he did not want to cause trouble for his sister. Hence, he packed a few bags and ran out of the house.
“I heard everything. His mother wanted you dead and even enlisted… Lan Zhengfeng to get rid of you quickly!” he said hatefully.
Even he was unwilling to acknowledge a father who would betray his biological child, let alone his sister.
“Not his mother. It’s his stepmother,” An Jiuyue corrected him.
“They’re all the same.”
Lan Zhiyi snorted softly and pursed his lips.
However, on second thought, there was a difference. A biological mother would only do something like that for her son’s sake. However, a stepmother was different.
“You had to suffer because of him! I hate him anyway!”
“Zhiyi!”
An Jiuyue did not know what to say to him.
After all, she did not like Qian Jiyun at first and tried everything to drive him away.
However, she still wanted to defend Qian Jiyun.
There was the old Emperor, who had always wanted to deal with him, and a slew of other troublesome issues. Qian Jiyun, no matter how strong he was, only had two hands, right?
How old was Qian Jiyun? He was only a few years older than her!
“Sister, you still want to speak up for him?”
Lan Zhiyi glared at her aggrievedly when he saw her open her mouth.
“In any case, he just didn’t do a good job of protecting you. If he wanted to, he wouldn’t have let you suffer like that. It’s all his fault.. Why are you still speaking up for him? Is he worth it?”
