The crowd became alert at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After all, this was a three-meter-tall piece of dry firewood. For this person to be able to stand on it without anyone noticing in full view of everyone, he must be quite strong!

The people carrying torches were somewhat intimidated by Chen Jiao and unanimously took three steps back.

The third prince, touching his face which was in excruciating pain and might be disfigured, silently took three steps back.

It's not that he's a coward!

He only wanted to preserve the supreme dignity of the royal family!

The master was timid, but the guards beside him were aggressive and drew their swords.

The goddess stood ramrod straight, calm and composed. "And who are you?"

That's a good question!

Shen Jiao cleared her throat, about to speak, "You ask..."

"Jiaojiao," Ji Yan suddenly called out to her.

"Hmm? Your Majesty, what do you want to say?" Shen Jiao feigned composure, her mouth moving but her face remaining still.

Shen Jiao and the Tyrant were both skilled in martial arts, and they deliberately lowered their voices to communicate, so ordinary people would not notice.

Even the Gu family's secret guards, who were relatively close to the two, couldn't hear what they were saying.

Ji Yan looked at the hamster that was trying not to bristle and laughed, "It's okay, I'll just call you."

Shen Jiao said seriously, "Your Majesty, when it comes to showing off, you can only do it once, then it will weaken, and then it will be exhausted. Can you call me again in a little while?"

"Okay." Ji Yan raised an eyebrow, which was taken as agreement.

Interrupted by the tyrant, Shen Jiao once again gathered her emotions and silently recited her prepared self-introduction.

Then, she opened her mouth and said, "You asked me who I am..."

“Bright and beautiful”.

Shen Jiao: "..."

"Your Majesty!" Shen Jiao said through gritted teeth, unable to bear it any longer, "I told you not to interrupt me!"

Ji Yan smiled and chuckled softly, "I really do have something to say."

Shen Jiao asked suspiciously, "What is it?"

Ji Yan: "I'm calling your name."
