"Miss Nine."
She turned towards the source of the voice and saw Lan'er being forced to kneel by two servants. She seemed relieved to see her return.
"Grandpa, did Nuo Ying do something wrong? You made such a big commotion?"
She stood tall and straight in the middle of the circle of knives. It was as if the sharp white blades didn't give her the slightest sense of pressure. Instead, it was as if they were protecting her.
An indifferent demeanor, a gentle smile, this kind of demeanor, the Xi Clan Leader asked himself honestly, even he himself would not be able to achieve this level. If it wasn't because he had a card up his sleeve, then it was because he had a clear conscience.
Which type did Schilling's Shadow belong to?
"You know what you've done. Hand it over and I won't punish you for the sake of your father's face. Otherwise …"
Bang!
The cup in his hand shattered under the pressure of his five fingers.
The courtyard was silent. A faint oppressive aura spread out. The already tense atmosphere in the courtyard became even more terrifying.
Xi Mengdie's small face behind the veil turned vicious. She looked at Schilling's Shadow with eyes full of pride and ecstasy. She, Schilling's Shadow, wouldn't live past today.
Schilling's Shadow looked at the broken cup on the ground. He didn't seem surprised at all. He only glanced at it briefly before slowly looking up. "What is the item you're talking about, Patriarch?"
"Still playing dumb with me. What kind of item don't you know?" The veins on Xi Home leader's forehead bulged. He suddenly reached out a hand to her. "Give me the jade qilin."
"So it's the jade qilin." Schilling's Shadow nodded in realization. Then he muttered to himself, "That's right. Only the jade qilin can make Patriarch lose control like this."
When she looked up again, her eyes were cold and solemn. She lowered her voice. "Since Patriarch believes that I stole the jade qilin, then where's your proof?"
A colorful bracelet that reflected the light of the rainbow started to shake under the Xi Family's grip.
"I picked this up from the place where the Jade Qilin was hidden. You should be very familiar with this bracelet."
Looking at the swaying bracelet, her gaze softened slightly. "This exquisite bracelet was brought back by father from outside. It has seven colors. It's gorgeous and expensive. In the entire Bei 'an City, you won't be able to find another one like it."
"You're quite clear. What else is there to explain?" Xi Home leader glared at him, flames of anger dancing in his eyes.
She fiddled with the Fire Phoenix Bracelet on her wrist and a cool voice echoed in the courtyard. She was not flustered by the pressure from the Xi family at all. Instead, her gaze that was directed at the bracelet was filled with mockery.
"A fake is a fake. How can it be more precious than the real Exquisite Bracelet?"
The Xi Family Patriarch was slightly taken aback. He looked down at the bracelet in his hand and his brows furrowed. Even though he was in a fit of rage, he was not blind. After hearing Schilling's Shadow's words, he pressed down hard with his thumb. With a crack, one of the beads shattered.
"This isn't the real Exquisite Bracelet!" His expression changed and his eyes were filled with bewilderment. "Shi Rao once told me that the Exquisite Bracelet is made of spirit stones from heaven and earth. Each of them is incomparably hard and can be crushed by extraordinary power. However, this bracelet was easily crushed … It really is a fake bracelet."
