Manager Ouyang bowed his head in silence, while Lady Dongfang, surrounded by disciples, although no one dared lay a hand on her, could not dream of taking half a step away. Out of desperation, she cried, "My lord! Why do you treat me this way!"
Dongfang Qingqi, as if he hadn't heard her complaint, only looked at Ouyang and said in a low voice, "I treated you as a brother, but you stabbed me in the back. Might as well tell me the whole story. Why did you do it?"
After a long silence, Ouyang finally spoke softly, "Humans and demons follow separate paths; where is the need for so many whys? Twelve years ago, you saved me, and I have served you faithfully, repaying that debt. Now that the debt is repaid, we have no more ties."
"You're a demon?!" Not just Dongfang Qingqi, but everyone present was shocked.
