Ju Nanyi turned his head and the first thing he saw was the tall, thin shadow of the youth who led the group on horseback. Even though the boy's figure appeared frail and the wind pressed his clothes tightly against his body, it unexpectedly revealed his lean chest.
Ju Nanyi narrowed his eyes slightly, finding it a rare occurrence that someone was so anxiously disregarding their own status. This was a first.
The team quickly regrouped. Without a command from Ju Nanyi, they immediately adopted a posture ready to set off at any moment. The distant riders had already approached, and the youth on horseback immediately noticed the carriage firmly protected in the middle of the column at the rear. He wanted to move forward but didn't dare to act rashly.
Ju Nanyi let out another cold snort at the sight of the youth's restrained and overly cautious demeanor.
He took a step forward, blocking the youth's view without showing any fear of the terrifying rumors that surrounded the young man.
