Caught off guard, Wanyan Luosang ended up taking on the full force of his bite.
The excruciating pain made her raise her hand and bring it down to strike Wanyan Zhi's neck.
However, Chu Jiu was faster and grabbed her wrist in one swift motion.
"Why would you attack a child, Princess Luosang? That strike could have injured or crippled the Prince," Chu Jiu said coldly. She flung Wanyan Luosang's arm aside, then pinched Wanyan Zhi's cheeks, forcing his jaw to slacken.
Wanyan Zhi suddenly burst into tears.
"You lied to me, Grandaunt. My father's gone, and you killed his beloved horse too. You're all bad people…"
Heartbroken, Long Qingzhi hurried forward and hugged him in her arms. "Don't be sad, Zhi'er. They're all bad people, but you still have me. I'll always be with you."
Wanyan Zhi continued to howl in anguish, "Father's gone, and so is his beloved horse…"
