"Summon everyone who saw the Holy Maiden this morning!"
After hearing this, Li Shiyao stopped hiding her true feelings!
"No need. Call the elders here. Shiyao has some questions for you."
The Holy Maiden spoke, and all the elders eagerly awaited the divine decree.
"Shiyao, you're the Holy Maiden, aren't you?"
"This is the sacred mountain, isn't it?"
"This title of Holy Maiden isn't something Shiyao insisted on becoming. It's because you all say that Shiyao is the daughter of God, a Holy Maiden, that's correct, isn't it?"
"You want the saintess to wear this kind of clothing to curry favor with that lord, is that it?"
As she spoke, Li Shiyao threw the tray containing the dress, along with the dress itself, onto the ground.
The elders looked at each other in bewilderment, wondering who the hell sent this.
Shi Yao is their precious darling. Not only do they rely on her, but the entire Holy Mountain depends on her leadership to achieve prosperity and flourishing!
"If any of you elders have such thoughts, you might as well speak them directly. After all, you elders have raised Shiyao, and it would be difficult for Shiyao to refuse, would it?"
"If it is the elders' request, even if it means becoming a furnace for that lord, Shiyao would be willing, as a way to repay the elders for their nurturing kindness."
"But Shiyao never expected that you would lie to her, saying you loved her, it was all a lie!"
Du Changsheng was also anxious! He turned around and questioned him!
"Are you all tired of living? How dare you give such a thing to the Holy Maiden? You have no shame, but I do!"
To be honest, even the Second Elder was dumbfounded; he had absolutely no idea about this!
"No! No, no! I... I'm doomed! Shiyao, listen to the Second Elder, he didn't mean it that way!"
Li Shiyao seemed to have given up on coaxing him, and said calmly with an air of acceptance.
"Second Elder, don't you like Shiyao?"
This made the Second Elder so anxious he could jump up and down. Looking at the way the other elders were looking at him, it was as if he had a blood feud with the other elders!
