"If you can't speak, I don't mind shutting you up forever."
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Jiang Wan's eyes.
Andina looked at her severed hair, not only did she not shut up, but she even intensified her anger: "I'm not wrong, his beast form is ugly to begin with, can't others say it? So what if he's the number one war god of the Mingxi Empire? How can he have the nerve to live with such an ugly face? If I were him, I would have committed suicide long ago..."
The rest of her words were interrupted by the dagger that passed by her face. After a pause, Andina felt the pain on her face. She reached out and wiped her face, and screamed in fear when she was covered in blood.
"Ah—you actually scratched my face. I am the most noble little princess of the Mifa Empire. How dare you, a lowly person, scratch my face? I will make my father and brother kill you!!!"
The noisy sound made Jiang Wan's already unhappy mood even more irritated. He slapped Andina to the ground, then walked up to her, grabbed her hair and lifted her head.
"I told you before, if you can't speak, I don't mind shutting you up forever. I'm not just saying this. This wound is my final warning to you. If you still don't listen, then the next cut will be your throat."
The murderous intent contained in the cold voice made the spoiled little princess finally realize that she was not just talking.
"You...I...I am the little princess of the Mifa Empire. You...you can't...can't hurt...hurt me. My father and brother...know this. They won't...will not let you go. When...they will definitely declare war on your Mingxi Empire. You...you don't want the war between the two countries, which has finally stopped, to break out again because of you, right?"
The little princess threatened Jiang Wan with trembling lips, but her eyes kept looking at other people for help.
However, given her usual behavior, the orcs all looked away, pretending not to see her. Xiong Lie and Xi Meng wanted to come over to help, but unfortunately, they were blocked by a winged white lion and could only look at her helplessly.
"Threatening me?" Jiang Wan said with a smile, "Let alone the fact that you came here illegally, no one knows it openly. Even if your followers revealed your identity, in their eyes, you were kidnapped by space pirates. What does it have to do with us? We are just unlucky passengers who were implicated by you.
What's more, this is the Meteorite Sea, a place that the entire galaxy fears. Do you think that if I kill you here, who else but these people here will know? And these people are all citizens of the Mingxi Empire. Do you think they will start a war between the two countries just for a foreign princess like you?"
Seeing that those people did not help her and allowed this female to threaten and intimidate her, Andina hated them in her heart, but she finally faced the reality and begged for mercy humbly.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. Please, forgive me this time. I, I was just too scared. I really know I was wrong. I'm sorry."
A beautiful woman shedding tears is always adorable. Seeing the pitiful look of the little princess who was frightened out of her wits by Jiang Wan, Xiong Lie was filled with passion and spoke up to defend her regardless of Bai Li's intimidation.
"Sir Jiang Wan, the little princess is just outspoken and has no ill intentions. Why are you being so aggressive? What's more, what she said is not wrong. The little princess is just a half-orc and is quite timid. She was frightened by Admiral Yin Yi's beast form, so she said some inappropriate things. You can't kill her for that.
Now that we have ended up in this desolate place, we should help each other and unite.”
When Xiong Lie saw the beautiful little princess looking at him with gratitude, he felt more and more like the hero who saved the beauty. He puffed out his chest proudly and continued speaking.
"The little princess is delicate and should be protected, but she's still willing to cook with us, take care of everyone, and survive in this harsh environment. I think we should be grateful to her, but not only are you ungrateful, you're threatening her. That's really wrong."
After hearing his impassioned speech, not only the others, but even Xi Meng, who had originally thought that Jiang Wan had gone too far, was shocked.
Anyone with eyes could see that during this period, the little princess was not only reluctant to work, but sometimes even wasted the food they had worked so hard to hunt. She acted like a princess all day long, complaining about this and that.
She even wanted two orcs to take care of her daily life at the beginning, but was scolded by General Yin Yi and gave up.
How could Xiong Lie say such shameless words with his eyes open and against his conscience?
"Oh!"
Jiang Wan sneered, looking at Xiong Lie's righteous words with a mocking expression, "I'm really curious. How can you, a so-called 'strong' orc who dares not go out hunting again after getting injured, have the nerve to say such things about a female like me?"
As if he felt uncomfortable in his current position, Jiang Wan shook off the head in his hands, stood up and walked forward a few steps. He stood with his legs astride and his arms folded across his chest in front of Xiong Lie. The sarcasm in his eyes pierced Xiong Lie's heart like a needle.
"I completely agree with what you said about us uniting and helping each other, but as a female, I am brave enough to stand up and go hunting with other beastmen to bring back food for everyone.
And you, a bear orc, actually became timid and used the injury as an excuse to slack off after suffering a minor injury. May I ask, where is your face?
Also, the rest of us orcs and females work hard every day to cook food for everyone, bandage the wounds of the injured, and wash our clothes. However, this little princess not only makes things worse for everyone, but also often complains that the food cooked by others is not tasty.
Is this what you call being willing to take care of everyone's lives?
I'm not saying anything, but we're all human beings for the first time, so why should we give in to her? Is it because she's a little princess from another country? Or because she's a half-orc?"
"I, that's not what I meant."
Under the strong condemning gazes of others, Xiong Lie lowered his head in embarrassment and spoke in a stammering voice.
Only then did he realize that the person in front of him was not an orc like him, but the most noble and delicate female in the galaxy.
They are even more fragile than orcs.
It was just that Jiang Wan's usual toughness and extremely high fighting power made him subconsciously forget that she was also a female who needed the protection of orcs. Instead, he thought that she was bullying Andina.
