The entire venue fell silent.
People glanced at each other and then began whispering.
"What? It’s this young girl who killed the Demon Dragon Princess?"
"I recognize her, she’s the eldest Miss of the Xia Family, named Xia Qi!"
"Is it true?"
"Who knows, let’s see how things develop!"
Mo Litu scrutinized Xia Qi from head to toe, seeing she was just an ordinary girl, and couldn’t help but sneer.
"Are you saying... my daughter Chunqing was killed by you?"
Xia Qi nodded, "That’s right!"
"Are you joking? Or do you think I’m a fool? My daughter was the dignified Demon Dragon Princess, how could she possibly be defeated by someone like you?"
These questions from Mo Litu were doubts shared by many.
And facing the overwhelming might of the Dragon King, Xia Qi’s face was as pale as paper, yet she did not take a step back. Instead, she took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
"As the Dragon King, do you not know what the Human Clan is best at?"
Mo Litu’s face changed, "You..."
"That’s right, my strength may not be worth mentioning, but I have wisdom and strategy! So it was very easy to gain your daughter’s trust and ultimately lead her into a trap! It means she didn’t die by the hands of a strong opponent, but was felled by my conspiracy and trickery!"
Xia Qi’s voice was clear, but Mo Litu’s face grew increasingly ugly, until he roared towards the sky.
"No! That’s impossible! Chunqing was equally intelligent and cunning; she wouldn’t fall for someone’s trap so easily!"
Amid the roar, the Dragon King’s might crashed like raging waves, forcing Xia Qi to step back repeatedly, making her body tremble even more.
The members of the Xia family naturally all saw this scene. Many Xia family elders looked sorrowful and turned their heads, unwilling to watch anymore.
Because they all knew, Xia Qi was clearly sacrificing herself to save the Xia Family!
So despite feeling a myriad of humiliations, the Xia family could only remain silent.
Already severely injured, Xia Zheng was no exception. However, at this moment, he no longer felt upset. Instead, he looked calmly at Xia Qi’s unwavering back facing the Dragon King’s might, with a hint of comfort and pride in his eyes.
This is a child of the Xia Family!
Even when facing such a powerful foe, they refused to bow and were willing to sacrifice themselves to save the entire family.
But on the ground, seeing this scene, Xia Yi was so angry that he nearly ground his teeth to dust.
"Xia Qi, you bitch, you’re willing to sacrifice yourself to protect him, I just don’t understand, what is it about him that makes you do this?"
At this moment, after venting his anger, Mo Litu suddenly lowered his head and looked at Xia Qi with icy eyes.
"Woman, are you deceiving me?"
This question turned many people’s faces pale.
Mo Litu continued in a sinister voice, "Do you think a few words are enough to convince me? You’re too naive! Indeed, you humans excel at schemes, but we Demon Dragons originate from the Bottomless Abyss—how could we easily fall into your trap? So what you’re saying clearly is to cover something up, am I right?"
As a king among the Demon Dragon clan, Mo Litu had lived for at least several thousand years. Even a fool would grow wise over such a long life.
Moreover, Mo Litu wasn’t a fool.
So his words hit the mark, making many members of the Xia Family turn pale, staring at Xia Qi’s back, worried for her.
Hearing this, Xia Yi on the ground let out a breath and then sneered, "As expected of the Dragon King, you saw through this trick at a glance. Xia Qi, let’s see what you’ll do now!"
