Soren felt a sense of despair. Was it really fate that the Soren family was doomed?
Giving someone hope first, and then disappointing them, is more painful than giving them despair at the beginning.
“What a terrible crime,” Zuan sneered, casually waving his hand toward the platform, sending a powerful gust of air flying towards it.
Even with their combined cultivation, the three family heads nearly lost their footing and had to use all their life's cultivation to barely maintain their balance.
The fire below the platform was extinguished by the strong winds.
"Quickly seize the girl from the Soren family!" the Yun family head shouted urgently.
But when he looked back, he was stunned. All that was left on the pillar were a few broken ropes, and Sorenshi was no longer there.
She had appeared beside Zuan without her noticing.
The women on the flying boat, who had been on tenterhooks, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he only supported her by the arm to keep her standing beside him, and did not hug the woman.
"Sister Yun, what's the deal with that Princess Soren? Are you familiar with her?" Ji Xiaoxi couldn't help but ask.
The other girls' ears perked up instantly. Yun Yuqing's expression was strange: "I only know that she is the apple of the eye of the Soren family and is known for her beauty and talent, but I don't know her well, since I have been staying with the human race for many years."
...
Even though she wasn't being held in Zaun's arms, Soren was already extremely excited, her eyes practically sparkling as she gazed at Zaun's profile.
The demon female warriors below watched with envy, thinking that if they were in her shoes and saved by such a handsome man in a desperate situation, their reaction would probably be even more exaggerated than hers.
The Yun family patriarch had no time for such romantic notions. Instead, he stared at Zu'an with a grim expression: "Is the Regent determined to break the tacit understanding between the royal court and the various races and interfere in the affairs of our demon race?"
Zuan said calmly, "There's no need to label me with those big accusations. Princess Soren is my friend, and that's enough."
"With just the word 'friend,' you dare to blatantly interfere in the internal affairs of our demon race. If the royal court finds out, I'm afraid they won't agree," the Yun family patriarch said grimly.
Soren Shi hurriedly said, "Brother Zu, this is no longer an internal affair of the Demon Clan. I suspect they are colluding with extraterrestrial demons. This is a matter of life and death for the entire Demon Clan."
She didn't want to tarnish her brother Zu's reputation because of her, so naturally she had to help him explain.
Jiang Luofu, on the distant flying boat, nodded secretly. This princess was indeed clever, making it perfectly legitimate for Zu An to do these things.
"You vile woman, you're spouting nonsense!" The Yun family patriarch roared in fury.
The other two family heads chimed in, saying, "Niece, you can't frame us for these crimes just to exonerate yourself."
"Your Majesty, please don't listen to her. She's just desperate and making baseless accusations."
Soren Shi was trembling with anger. Just as she was about to explain to Zuan, she was met with a warm and gentle smile from him: "No need to say anything, I know."
Almost instantly, Sorenshi felt all the injustice and anger in his heart vanish. He understood me...
Seeing the two of them so affectionate, the head of the Yun family's eyebrows twitched, and he said in a deep voice, "I think this matter should be reported to the royal court for a decision."
“There’s no need for that,” Zuan paused, “because I’m the one who calls the shots in the royal court.”
