"What did you say?" The Shadow Moon Palace Lord's eyes suddenly widened, his shocked gaze sweeping back and forth between Yue Ye and Jun Wu Xie.
"My Lord, your subordinate was left with no other choice! Chang Huan had bragged about his meritorious service in presenting the medicine to the Palace Lord and over this period, his actions had become more and more unbridled. Your subordinate knew that he was highly valued by the Palace Lord and was a disciple groomed by Elder Ying, so I did not dare to restrain him too much. But today, Little Ye had wanted to bring her elder brother to thank Chang Huan but had not expected that the moment she came to Chang Huan's residence, Chang Huan would lose his composure and lay his hands on Little Ye, intending to take liberties with her. Fortunately, the disciple who sent Little Ye there noticed something amiss and wanted to go stop it but was injured by Chang Huan. After your subordinate heard the news, I rushed over. "Elder Yue berated Jun Wu Xie for her rudeness and arrogance and just as his voice fell, a youth with a swollen face came walking into the palace hall to kneel down, coincidentally confirming Elder Yue's words.
Jun Wu Xie swept her gaze over to look at the youth with wounds all over his body, and her eyes were filled with a chill. From the moment Yue Ye came into her little courtyard to the moment she was "invited" to the main hall, she had not seen this disciple at all. But Elder Yue had forcefully pinned this person's injuries onto her head.
In order to bring her down, Elder Yue had really gone to great lengths.
To actually arrange all the charges so appropriately.
"Reporting to my Lord ….. Your disciple had wanted to go stop Chang Huan but was not a match for him, so I ….." The injured disciple knelt on the ground trembling, not even daring to raise his head, like he was terrified by Jun Wu Xie's beating.
The disciple's words were tinged with a trembling tone, and it wasn't just because his injuries were too severe, but because he was too afraid.
The veins on the Shadow Moon Palace Lord's forehead throbbed, his eyes filled with rage as he stared at Jun Wu Xie kneeling before the palace hall.
Elder Yue's words, the disciple's words, and the wretched state that Yue Ye was in, seemed to have sentenced Jun Wu Xie to death, without any room to retaliate.
"Chang Huan, is what they said true?" The Shadow Moon Palace Lord asked through gritted teeth as he stared at Jun Wu Xie. If this had happened to any other disciple today, he would not have even asked a single word, but would just have the disciple executed immediately.
But even so, the rage in the Shadow Moon Palace Lord's tone was highly obvious.
Jun Wu Xie raised her head up slowly, her gaze calm as she looked at the Shadow Moon Palace Lord who was trying his best to suppress his rage.
"What does Your Highness think?" Jun Wu Xie asked instead of answering.
The expression on the Shadow Moon Palace Lord's face grew uglier and uglier.
Was she questioning him?
Elder Yue laughed secretly in his heart. If Jun Wu Xie had cried and begged for mercy and redress the injustice, it might have been able to appease the Shadow Moon Palace Lord's rage a little. But with Jun Wu Xie's frank and honest words, it was no different from questioning the Shadow Moon Palace Lord's judgment. Not only would it not have any effect, it would instead stoke the fire in the Shadow Moon Palace Lord's heart to burn even more furiously!
"Chang Huan! How dare you act so presumptuously in front of His Highness? Since His Highness is asking you this question, you just need to answer it properly. Have you forgotten your own identity? How dare you question His Highness! " Elder Yue's face was cold and hard as he berated Jun Wu Xie, but in his heart, he wished for nothing more than for Jun Wu Xie to be a little more disrespectful, so that the Shadow Moon Palace Lord would be completely infuriated with him.
Jun Wu Xie did not even look at Elder Yue but just stared at the Shadow Moon Palace Lord, as she said in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing: "What is there for me to explain? His Highness is wise and mighty and he would naturally have his own judgment. For things that I have not done, I believe that my Highness will clear my name. "
