Xiao Hongzhen looked at Baili Hongzhuang and never expected her to be so clever.
As long as Baili Hongzhuang confidently sat beside Emperor Beichen, everyone present would feel dissatisfied with her.
However, after Emperor Beichen spoke, Baili Hongzhuang calmly and politely declined, her words filled with respect for everyone.
Just this alone was enough to make people have a favorable impression of her.
Xiao Hongzhen couldn't help but wonder if this was a plan agreed upon by Emperor Beichen and Baili Hongzhuang. But at this moment, even if it was a plan, what could they do?
Thinking of this, Xiao Hongzhen signaled to Jiang Yi with his eyes.
Now, he and Jiang Yi were like tied-up grasshoppers. The reason why Emperor Beichen left Tian Gang Sect in the first place was largely because of them. Now that Emperor Beichen had returned, they would definitely become thorns in his eyes.
Even though Emperor Beichen hadn't been back for long, they could already feel his dissatisfaction towards them.
Therefore, they only had one way to go.
If they couldn't support Ji Yangxia to become the Young Sect Master, once Emperor Beichen's position was completely stable and he successfully became the Sect Master in the future, their days would be difficult.
Seeing Xiao Hongzhen's signal, Jiang Yi immediately understood and spoke up, "Miss Baili, I heard that you were a useless person who couldn't cultivate in Fengbo Kingdom?"
The moment Baili Hongzhuang heard Jiang Yi's words, she understood that this guy was trying to find a way to deal with her.
In just an instant, everyone's gaze fell on Baili Hongzhuang. This question became the focus of their attention.
According to everyone's thoughts, if this was true, Baili Hongzhuang would undoubtedly feel nervous and even guilty when hearing this question.
If it was false, Baili Hongzhuang would surely feel angry and dissatisfied.
However, contrary to everyone's speculation, Baili Hongzhuang just smiled faintly. Her already stunningly beautiful face became even more gentle and charming, captivating everyone's hearts.
"When I was young, there were indeed some issues with my dantian, which resulted in a period of time when I couldn't cultivate. But now, it has fully recovered."
This was the truth, and as long as they sent someone to investigate, they would know. It was better to openly admit it rather than hiding it.
Seeing Baili Hongzhuang's calm response, everyone's belief in her grew stronger.
"Now that it's already cured, Master Jiang shouldn't bring up this matter anymore."
Qin Ai's face carried a faint smile, and the previous worries had dissipated with Baili Hongzhuang's answer.
On the contrary, he had a favorable impression of Baili Hongzhuang.
If it were an ordinary woman, facing such questioning from everyone would undoubtedly make her very nervous. How could she be as calm as Baili Hongzhuang?
Emperor Beichen didn't disappoint. Even though he stayed in Fengbo Kingdom for three years, he had actually brought back a treasure.
Listening to Qin Ai's slightly reproachful words, Jiang Yi's expression turned slightly ugly. He hadn't expected Baili Hongzhuang to be so calm.
However, he didn't believe that Baili Hongzhuang's dantian had truly recovered.
"Miss Baili, words alone are not enough proof. The position of the Young Sect Master's wife is not something anyone can have. If you deceive us by claiming you can't cultivate when you actually can, then..."
Jiang Yi didn't finish his words, but his expression was enough to convey everything.
"Master Jiang, are you doubting that I'm lying?" Baili Hongzhuang asked in response.
As Baili Hongzhuang's words fell, Jiang Yi's expression also revealed a hint of embarrassment.
