Chapter 3675: 4.1275 Seeking Justice
The Third City Lord of Phantom City chuckled, suddenly flinging open the large cloak draped over him, revealing a precious armor beneath, embroidered with gold thread and crafted from silver crystal.
His aura, like a mountain torrent, surged forth, and everyone in the hall immediately felt as if something was blocking their chests, making it difficult to breathe.
"Your Majesty, my Phantom City is beyond the three states, as you well know." The Third City Lord said with a cold smile, "If this matter didn't concern my beloved disciple, I wouldn't have come to you like this."
Mo Liusheng's smile quickly faded.
He pressed his hands down, instantly dispelling the pressure released by the Third City Lord.
"If you have something to say, say it. There's no need to release your pressure as soon as you arrive." Mo Liusheng was most impatient with the behavior of these people.
It's better to just explain things clearly. What's the point of inexplicably releasing pressure as soon as you arrive, only to suppress a group of ordinary people?
The Third City Lord of Phantom City's actions caused a hint of coldness to rise in Mo Liusheng's heart.
Phantom City was beyond the three states.
But his Mo Imperial Family was not one to be bullied at will.
If this Third City Lord continued to be so presumptuous, Mo Liusheng wouldn't mind teaching him a lesson.
"Hmph." The Third City Lord snorted coldly, his gaze suddenly falling upon the Little Poker Face.
Thus, everyone nervously cast their eyes towards the Little Crown Princess.
She, however, paid no attention to what was happening in the hall. She was simply lowering her head, using a bamboo skewer to pick at the shrimp meat on her plate, eating them one by one.
Everyone felt a bit amused and helpless, instinctively turning to look at the Crown Prince's solemn expression.
Mo Lian was frowning at this moment, looking at the Third City Lord standing in the center of the pavilion.
This person's hostile gaze towards his little wife displeased him, and his words were also cold and sharp, "If you stare at my Crown Princess again, be careful of your eyes."
The hearts of the various ministers subtly skipped a beat. Each of them kept their eyes down, silently observing, not daring to utter a sound.
Everyone knew very well that the Crown Prince's words just now were not a joke.
He was genuinely warning the Third City Lord of Phantom City.
But clearly, the Third City Lord did not take the Crown Prince's words to heart and even burst out laughing upon hearing them.
"What an arrogant and spirited Crown Prince of Shenzhou." His cold gaze fell upon Crown Prince Mo, and he sneered, "No wonder you discarded my disciple like a worn-out shoe."
At this moment, Empress Dowager Chen, sitting at the head of the table, couldn't help but speak, "Third City Lord, what are you saying? After Dan Master Shan entered the capital, we have always treated her with courtesy, not daring to show the slightest neglect."
The Third City Lord suddenly pointed in Mo Lian's direction and said sternly, "My purpose in coming today is to seek justice for my disciple. Disciple!"
The black-veiled woman, dressed entirely in black, behind him, took small, light steps and walked before everyone.
She reached out and removed the black veil from her face, revealing half of a hideous face crisscrossed with scars.
Empress Dowager Chen almost couldn't stay seated, nearly jumping up from her chair, exclaiming, "Dan Master Shan!"
"You, your face, what, what happened?" Empress Dowager Chen cried out, her eyes quickly looking at the expressionless Little Crown Princess and Crown Prince Mo.
The Little Poker Face glanced at Shan Yisu with a puzzled expression, then immediately withdrew her gaze.
Whether this woman's face was injured or not had absolutely nothing to do with her.
She was too lazy to even ask, it must have been because she provoked Qiaoqiao's Lian, and Lian taught her a severe lesson.
