Her words were powerful and resounding. It made Ji Yunhao's face turn from green to white. He was rendered speechless for a brief moment before he could squeeze out a few words, "Ungrounded criticisms! Let's see if you can still talk again after the Chastity Testing Beast examines you."
A little girl who had no one to rely on dared to annul an imperial marriage. This was simply a wonder. This was something that ignited the flames of gossip among everyone.
Usually in the public square, people come to and fro, but at this moment, only people coming could be seen, whereas, there was no one leaving. Everyone was waiting to see the results of the trial.
In the mind of the majority of the commoners, they all hoped that Ning Xuemo would win, also letting them, the people from the lowest rung of society, release their frustrations.
However, most of them weren't too optimistic about Ning Xuemo's outcome.
After all, she was caught in bed committing adultery and the other party was a dissolute person. Anyway, they were also not convinced that Li Sanglang and Ning Xuemo were simply sleeping under the quilt. She was certainly eaten dry and wiped clean {1}.
This little girl was simply like a trapped animal that struggled. Even if she was really lucky and preserved her body's innocence, she couldn't escape from the Chastity Testing Beast's claws. In this world, there has been no woman who could escape from the Chastity Testing Beast's claws yet...
Therefore, Ning Xuemo's probability of success was very small, or possibly null.
Countless gazes were fixed on Ning Xuemo with pity. Apart from pity, there was also regret.
Everyone said that this little girl was a waste of resources, and naturally, was cowardly and dull. Following the first and second time she opened her moth, she was simply astonishingly intelligent. Her thinking was sharp and her eloquence even more so, to the point it made the Sixth Prince unable to even utter a decent line of refutation!
Furthermore, although her skin was quite pale and somewhat rough due to the years of malnutrition, as long as she properly took care of her health, in a few years, her skin would become tender again. In addition, her facial features were exceptionally delicate and pretty. After she grew up, she would certainly turn into a ravishingly beautiful woman.
...
However, that Kind of ravishing beautiful woman was going to go down under the Chastity Testing Beast's sharp claws. Just the thought of it let people wrung their hands!
Also this Sixth Prince... Was it worth it to falsely accuse this young girl? Taking her as a cè fi was also pretty good...
...
Finally, the Chastity Texting Beast arrived, transported by eight imperial bodyguards.
It was also in a big iron cage, but the cage was three times bigger than Ning Xuemo's cage.
The red curtain covering the cage was slowly pulled down. Ning Xuemo and the Chastity Testing Beast looked at each other from their respective cages.
Although the commoners had heard about this Chastity Testing Beast, they hadn't truly seen it with their own eyes until now.
This Chastity Testing Beast was the imperial family's treasure and only the imperial noblewoman who had adulterous behavior, but refused to admit it, would face it.
The imperial noblewoman who lost their innocence before their wedding night were few in number, and when caught, were mostly executed in secret by their family. From start to end, their stories were unable to be examined by a judicial officer. Because of this, countless woman held on to their wishful thinking. Even in front of death, they refused to admit guilt, so they were thrown to the Chastity Testing Beast, where they were torn into shreds.
The Chastity Testing Beast had the body of a tiger, covered in golden fur. It's face had a deeply ingrained hatred and was extremely similar to a pug. It had two ash grey horns on top of its head, similar to a deer's horn. It also had four white furred paws that seemed fluffy, with claws sharp as knives poking out...
As Ning Xuemo looked at the chastity Testing Beast, countless black lines slid down her temples {2}.
'This is the Chastity Testing Beast? This is clearly a freaky failed crossbreed! Even comparing it to a liger, it's still considered abnormal!"
Its height was three times Ning Xuemo's height. A pair of green eyes that resembled a will-o'-wisp was attentively watching Ning Xuemo. Its body exuded a blood reeking and murderous aura. It made the crowd of people unable to help, but retreat ten meters back.
"Ning Xuemo, don't you need to prove your innocence? Then, just enter the Chastity Testing Beast's cage!"
