At the sound of Si Mobai’s cold voice, Deng Hu could not help but tremble. When he spoke, it was with a dry smile on his face, “I only wanted to be given an account of what happened to my dear disciple, why would I want to kill the Demon King?”
Demon King was the master of the Bailan Alliance, naturally, he could not offend him. He had to be as polite and cordial as he could.
“Yesterday, Shen Yunya died in front of me, and now you want the Emperor to hand over everyone involved. Doesn’t that mean you want to kill me?” Si Mobai lifted his eyes slowly, his peach blossom eyes icy cold. He did not care to give Deng Hu any face.
As far as Si Mobai was concerned, he only needed to give face to Lan’er. As for the rest, there was no need for that.
Hearing these words, Deng Hu’s face changed. He felt rather awkward and spoke with a dry laugh, “The Demon King did not know my beloved disciple, so it is understandable that you stood by the side and did not help…”
“How could I not know her?” Si Mobai stared at Deng Hu coldly. “She murdered my consort and sabotaged us multiple times thereafter. If it were not for my beloved consort who tried to stop me many times, Shen Yunya would have died by my hand a long time ago.”
“…” Deng Hu lifted his head. He was speechless as he looked at Si Mobai. He knew about this, of course, and had been trying to make things easy for the Demon King. The Demon King only had to turn over Feng Tianlan and nothing would happen to him.
However, from what has been said so far, either the Demon King was a fool or he was doing this on purpose with wholehearted intentions to protect Feng Tianlan. Doing all this just for a woman, he was a foolish man indeed.
Seeing how Deng Hu was looking at her, Feng Tianlan lifted her eyebrows gently and met his gaze without a trace of fear. “What kind of account is Your Supremacy looking for? Please feel free to ask me. After all, what happened to Shen Yunya was all because of me.”
Si Mobai glanced at Feng Tianlan lovingly, then curved his lips into a gentle smile. He had no doubt that Lan’er would be capable of handling this.
As her words rang out, Weng Yue, who had previously behaved as though no one was around, turned to look at Feng Tianlan. She sat with her spine straight as a pine and her phoenix eyes stared straight at Deng Hu with neither arrogance nor humility. The amount of power and sharpness she displayed was no less than that of Si Mobai next to her.
He had thought that for a man as cold and overbearing as Si Mobai, the woman beside him would be gentle, adorable, or something like that. He did not expect that she would be just as overpowering as he and not any less fierce than a man.
Despite this, her overbearing attitude actually appeared very compatible with Si Mobai. This was indeed an odd pair.
“You are Shen Qingdai’s reincarnation, Feng Tianlan?” Deng Hu was startled by the power Feng Tianlan exuded but he quickly regained his senses and looked at her with disdain and antagonism.
Feng Tianlan nodded gently and lifted her eyes to look at him, asking in a neutral tone, “I was just asking Your Supremacy, what kind of account do you want about Shen Yunya? That she killed despite being innocent? That she wronged and died a victim of injustice?”
Listening to her questions, Deng Hu’s face darkened and the muscles on his face twitched. “You are indeed a witty one.”
“I am only speaking the truth. Everyone in Dongshu Nation knows that Shen Yunya brutally murdered my cousin. You must have heard about it somewhere on the Xuantian Continent.” Feng Tianlan looked at him and laughed gently, ” I believe Your Supremacy has also heard of the horrible deeds Shen Yunya has done, as broadcasted from the huge projector wall in Jialan hall. Those are definitely not baseless accusations.”
“So what if that was true? What she has done does not concern me. To me, she is just my obedient and talented disciple. Now that she is dead, as her Master, I have to ask for an account of her death and avenge her.”
