Some people are natural standout figures, becoming the most conspicuous presence in a crowd as if they can control everything, intimidating onlookers, leaving them no choice but to treat them with respect.
Yelu Yan was such a presence.
Habu, looking at Yelu Yan speaking, felt very timid inside, but to protect Li Xianyun, he had no time to worry about the consequences.
Li Xianyun had always been the one putting in the effort, single-handedly looking for a way out for everyone; now was the time for them to repay her.
The villagers shared Habu's thoughts. Even though they were extremely afraid of Yelu Yan, worried that a mere flick of his finger could spell their doom,
their respect and gratitude for Li Xianyun made them throw caution to the wind, stiffening their necks and masking the fear in their hearts.
When Li Xianyun heard what Habu said, she finally understood the situation and laughed, "Elder, you are mistaken, he's not here to trouble me."
"Not?" Habu asked, skeptical.
