When the group of ladies noticed Yuan stopping right above them, they hastily retrieved their weapons and prepared to fight him.
"What do you want from us, you stalker?!" one of them shouted at him.
Yuan raised an eyebrow.
"Stalker? Just because we're heading in the same direction doesn't mean I am stalking you. It's just a coincidence," he calmly replied.
"Then why did you stop? If you're not here for us, then hurry up and get lost!"
After a moment of silence, Yuan responded, "In that case, I'll stop bothering you and be right on my way. Sorry for the disturbance."
Without another word, Yuan flew away.
"What a creepy fellow."
"Right?"
Only after Yuan's presence vanished entirely did the group allow themselves to breathe freely, settling back into their rest.
However, their rest was short-lived, as the earth beneath them quaked without warning, sending a jolt of alarm through the group.
"W-What's going on?!"
