In an instant, the atmosphere was extremely cold. Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to say anything.
Shen Yaowei didn’t stop Huo Junhan either.
However, Qi Yuan looked at her with a hint in his gaze. “Miss Shen, this isn’t a small matter. His Highness is a pillar of the country. He can’t take the risk easily.”
“Imperial Preceptor, you’re wrong. The grudge between the ghost race and the human race has been acc.u.mulated for a thousand years. Now that the battle is imminent, everyone has a responsibility. If we don’t deal with the ghost race, the army will descend into the world, and the country will fall. Even as a pillar of the country, we can’t reverse the situation.” Shen Yaowei lowered her eyes and quietly held Huo Junhan’s hand under the table.
Huo Junhan’s face didn’t move, but he immediately held Shen Yaowei’s palm under the table.
A smile flashed in her eyes. Shen Yaowei raised her head and stared intently into Qi Yuan’s eyes. She said word by word, “1 agree with what His Highness said. If as a person of the Imperial Preceptor’s residence, I have to listen to the Imperial Preceptor’s orders and leave without doing anything, then I’ll leave the Imperial Preceptor’s residence at this moment.”
“Miss Shen, the matter is still being discussed. Don’t be so agitated first. You still have to act cautiously.” Yao Qingyi’s expression instantly stiffened when he heard this. He looked at Shen Yaowei anxiously.
However, Shen Yaowei didn’t even look at him. She only approached Huo Junhan a little more.
Seeing the intimate looks of the two of them, Yao Qingyi’s heart ached.
Even if Shen Yaowei didn’t say anything explicitly, he could tell that as long as Huo Junhan stayed, she would definitely stay…
No, it should be said that even without Huo Junhan, she definitely wouldn’t sit back and do nothing about this!
It was just a coincidence that she was with Huo Junhan, so the two of them faced this matter together.
Seeing that the two of them were telepathic, Yao Qingyi’s heart was about to be crushed. It was so painful that his face was pale, and even his shoulders were trembling slightly.
“Senior Brother Yao, are you alright?” Yue Xiaoyao had been paying attention to Yao Qingyi’s situation. At this moment, she stretched out her hand and gently pressed on his shoulder.
However, Yao Qingyi didn’t even look at her. He moved his shoulder to dodge Yue Xiaoyao’s touch and said with a cold expression, “Yue Xiaoyao, bring the other disciples of the Imperial Preceptor’s residence back. I want to stay too and a.s.sist Master together.”
“Qingyi, don’t mess around.” Qi Yuan’s gaze turned cold as he berated with a serious expression.
Unexpectedly, Yao Qingyi was already prepared. He reached out and pulled out the sharp dagger at his waist. After kneeling, he firmly pressed the dagger to his neck.
Even Shen Yaowei was shocked by Yao Qingyi’s sudden action.
“Master, I’ve made up my mind. Please fulfill my wish, Master! If I can’t get what I want, I’d rather die here now!” As Yao Qingyi spoke, the dagger in his hand pressed against his neck again.
The sharp blade cut through the flesh, and blood flowed out of Yao Qingyi’s neck, but he didn’t move at all as if he couldn’t see it.
When Qi Yuan saw this scene, he could only sigh heavily and turn to avoid Yao Qingyi. “Forget it, since you insist, so be it. However, the others have to leave. No one can say anything else!”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and swung it. An invisible aura swept out like a wave, making everyone present have no choice but to suppress their restless hearts.
Shen Yaowei had been sitting beside Huo Junhan. She looked at Qi Yuan and continued to remind him.
“Yue Xiaoyao, you can go upstairs and prepare to bow now. In an hour, I’ll immediately build a teleportation array and send you out first.” Qi Yuan waved his hand and urged Yue Xiaoyao and the others to go upstairs.
Yue Xiaoyao and the others couldn’t win against him. In the end, they could only listen and walk upstairs one by one..
