The one speaking these words was naturally Yun Xiao. With the soul of the reincarnated Long Xiao Battle God, he wouldn't be too concerned about a mere Xuanyue Empress and as he stated, in the presence of others, reasoning had to prevail. Blind partiality was entirely inconsistent with the vaunted title of a virtuous Empress.
"What do you count as? How dare you meddle in the affairs of the Royal Family?"
Little did he know, as soon as Yun Xiao finished speaking, the Empress, known for her virtue in the Xuanyue Empire, flipped him a cold look and spoke as if she didn't even regard this unknown wretch as worthy of her attention.
In fact, the Empress had already reached the Peak of Spirit Vein Realm, a presence that could stand equally against Xuan Haoran. In the eyes of such a powerful figure, a mere cultivator at the Late Stage of Meridian Rushing Realm had no right even to speak.
