As soon as they heard what Ynes Larkin had said, Alex and Hermione Yggdrasil, who had stepped towards the door with the intention of leaving, stopped dead in their tracks.
It was the sect master of Yorshire Palace who had arrived in person.
Alex, Hermione and Breena Davey only stood a short three meters from each other. For a cultivator, this was equivalent to nothing.
Thump, thump, thump!
Hermione hurriedly pulled on Alex and retreated quite a few steps. They backed up all the way behind Ynes.
Breena’s eyes were cold, hurt, angry, and there was also something else that flashed. Either way, it was complicated. She rushed in quickly, all the way to the front of Ynes.
Slap!
A hard slap landed right away.
Half of Ynes’ face was red and swollen, and a bright red handprint materialized on her fair skin.
“Wha…”
Alex and Hermione were shocked. Breena had slapped Ynes so hard, it was like the scene of a wife hitting a mistress.
In the next instance, Breena’s voice exploded. “Don’t call me master! I don’t have such a shameless disciple like you! What did I ask you to do here, and what did you do? You had an engagement here… With a man and two women, no less! Do you even know what decency and shame are? You have disgraced my Yorkshire Palace!”
Her voice echoed like thunder roaring in the skies. It was clear that Breena’ s furious temper had reached a high level.
Why has she appeared here?
Breena felt that even if she were to eat ten pounds of peppers, she wouldn’t be feeling as explosive as she was.
Thud!
Ynes knelt down in front of Breena, her face full of tears. “Master, I didn’t!” she cried.
Breena couldn’t believe her anymore. “How dare you talk back to me? Everyone else has seen it. Do you think all of them are blind? Ynes Larkin, you made my heart ache so much, and you’ve disappointed me! The biggest mistake in my life was picking you up from the snow! If I had been indifferent to you, I wouldn’t have had to experience the ridicule of this group. Yorkshire Palace wouldn’t have become the laughing stock of everyone else! You are the biggest sinner of this age… How pitiful the people of our Yorkshire Palace must be!”
“Master…”
Ynes’ face filled with despair.
