Rebirth of a Villainess 145 Banquet 31

"Congratulations! Fox King Yan, you've just secured yourself a potential wife!"

The room that was dead quiet errupted into a torrent of words as everyone seemed to be talking all at once.

"Lady Li! What do you mean by that?!"

"How disgraceful! To think Sect Leader Li's daughter could say such a word!"

"Lady Li! Please explain what you mean by that!"

"Sect Leader Li is an upright man, to think he raised such a child! It is a pity! A pity! He must think he lived his life for nothing when he hears what you just said! You didn't even consider that Sect Leader Jin and Lady Jin could witness such a shameful thing!"

"Who does she think she is?! I heard she can't cultivate! Yet she thinks she's superior to all of here, even going as far as to insult the Fox King! What has the cultivation world come to!"

At first, the GuBaiJin sect leader waa thrown off guard when he heard what Xu Hui said, even his even had a dazed look in her eyes when looking at whom she thought was the daughter of Li Guoliang.

A while later, Jin Ruimin raised his hand to end the uproar that had ceased the room.

"Lady Li, can you tell everyone here what you meant by what you said about the Fox King?"

Speaking in a deceptively quiet tone, Jin Ruimin waited to hear what Xu Hui had to say, while wife held onto his hand tightly.

Yan ShuChang had been aware of how different the daughter of the YuanLin sect leader was, he could sense what the others couldn't about the nature of her spirit energy. The fox energy made him see and sense what the rest couldn't, despite knowing that she wasn't who she projected herself to be, the fox royalty kept it to himself not wanting to tangle with whatever may result from meddling in the affairs of the heavenly realm.

Xu Hui rose up from where she sat, while Fu Zian was seething in rage when he saw how she caused the YuanLi sect to lose face in front of everyone.

"I know she isn't a disciple of YuanLi sect neither is she the daughter of sect leader, but would it kill her to not shame the name of everyone at YuanLi sect!"

Fu Zian thought those inside of him as he glared at the woman who graceful rose from the seat in his front.

"Fox King Yan, forgive my imprudence."

After saying this, Xu Hui bowed to the Fox King whose impassive face revealed none of what he thought of her.

She then turned to face the GuBaiJin sect leader and his wife, before addressing the cultivators in the hall of glaze. 

"Sect Leader Jin, haven't you noticed anything amiss?!"

"What?! What is it that I overlooked?!"

Jin Ruimin's eyes took on a much darker look as it bore into those of Xu Hui.

"Enjie is a servant from your sect and you just handed her over without putting much fight to the Fox King! What if he uses her to bring down the remaining cultivation sects left! Are you going to bear the responsibility for taking such a decision?!"

Xu Hui could sense that there was more to the Fox King's action that met the eye which was why she said those outrageous words, not knowing how true they would become later on.

"Lady Li must be tired, can one of you send her to her room! It is because I hold your father, Sect Leader Li in such high esteem that is why I would not pursue the matter by disciplining you!"

As he spoke, the disciples stationed at the door of the hall rushed over to where Xu Hui stood to do as their sect leader had spoken.
