Mo Bici coughed up another mouthful of blood, looked up at her with a faint smile, "Who defeated the ferocious beast is no longer important. What's important is that the people of Moyang City are no longer in danger, right, elder sister?"
She had said everything, good and bad, and Mo Yunlan trembled with anger. "You clearly wanted to take the opportunity to kill Mo Yunzhao just now, but when you failed, you shamelessly stole her credit. You have no shame!"
Mo Bici's face was pale, and she lowered her eyes in grievance. "As long as Moyang City and its people are well, whatever you say, elder sister, is fine."
This move, a feigned retreat, inflamed the anger of the onlookers. Seeing their hero so badly injured and subjected to such questioning, they couldn't stand it any longer and began to criticize Mo Yunlan.
"We could believe that Mo Yunzhao used to be able to subdue ferocious beasts, but now she's just a blind, useless woman with no spiritual power. How can she possibly subdue ferocious beasts?"
"Since the Fourth Miss has already made such concessions and doesn't want any credit, why are you still being so aggressive, Mo Yunlan?"
"No wonder they're sisters, one likes to steal other people's fiancés, and the other likes to steal other people's credit. Who's the shameless one?"
"Mo Yunzhao, who has neither the strength nor the magnanimity to tolerate others, is not worthy of being the city lord at all."
"Yes, Mo Yunzhao is not fit to be the city lord!"
"..."
Mo Bici hurriedly stepped forward and faced the crowd, weakly saying, "Don't say that about the city lord. I did take advantage of the situation to injure the beast. The city lord is the one who subdued the beast. She is your hero. Please don't disobey the city lord for my sake, and also ruin everyone's harmony."
These kind words further swayed the people's support for Mo Bici.
Mo Yunzhao, on the other hand, was a scoundrel who took advantage of the situation to subdue the ferocious beast.
Mo Yunlan's face flushed red with anger, her eyes blazing with fury, and her hand twitched slightly.
These foolish people dare to speak of her Ah Zhao like that, they deserve a beating!
"Sister."
The soft shout calmed Mo Yunlan down, and she looked up.
Mo Yunzhao and Ling Jingyu stood side by side and slowly landed on the back of the roc.
She rushed forward, anxiously asking, "Are you alright? Are you okay?"
"It's nothing," Mo Yunzhao shook his bandaged hand, then asked, "Sister, were you trying to hit someone?"
Ling Jingyu stood to one side, not interfering in the affairs of Moyang City.
Mo Yunlan lowered her head somewhat guiltily, "No, nothing."
Mo Yunzhao smiled and said, "For fools, you can hit them if you want; there's no need to hold back."
Mo Yunlan looked up abruptly, staring at her in disbelief, but then seemed relieved.
Ah Zhao has always been willful and reckless since childhood, so how could she care about the consequences?
She said softly, "Mo Yunzhao, you are the lord of this city. You need to change your temper. Otherwise, they might rebel against you. The most important thing for the stability of a city is the unity of its people."
"Mo Yunzhao, you are not worthy to be the city lord!"
Someone shouted something, and many of the onlookers joined in, chanting the slogan louder and louder.
Mo Bici weakly advised, "Fellow villagers, calm down. This is the city lord. As long as you are safe and sound, it doesn't matter whose credit it is. Just don't disobey the city lord. She is the most suitable person to be the city lord."
Mo Jinghao and the two family heads also joined in persuading the people.
Their faces showed anxious admonition, but their eyes held a smug smile.
This would only add fuel to the fire, with more and more people shouting slogans and their voices growing louder.
"Mo Yunzhao is unworthy to be the city lord. He shall relinquish the position!"
Mo Yunlan was furious.
Mo Yunzhao had just subdued the ferocious beast and was still injured, yet he was treated this way by the people.
