My junior sister pretends to be good and deceives people every day

About a quarter of an hour later, Yan Zhiqiao helped Jiang Ciyuan to the outside of the main hall.

As the prince of the dragon clan, even though he is currently seriously injured and has not yet recovered, Jiang Ciyuan will not lose his demeanor and bearing in front of outsiders.

Seeing that he concealed the tenderness that he only showed in front of her, Yan Zhiqiao's expression became stern and his back became straighter, so he let go of the hand that was supporting his arm.

But the next moment, her right hand was firmly held by Jiang Ciyuan.

Yan Zhiqiao's thick long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she raised her eyes to look at Jiang Ciyuan.

It was a rare moment for Jiang Ciyuan not to look at her. After the guards finished their message and the Dragon Queen's voice was heard from inside, he took Yan Zhiqiao's hand and walked into the hall.

On the high seat, the Dragon Queen, dressed in silvery clothes and looking solemn and noble, sat firmly in the position that originally belonged to the Dragon King.

Rang Chen and the Fox King sat at the lower left, with Gu Qingyan and three others standing behind them with serious expressions.

The other three demon kings with extraordinary demeanor sat on the right side in turn, with people standing behind them.

——They are Xunxi, the princess of the demon cat tribe, and Tang He and Qing Yuan, disciples of the Shengqing Sect.

The atmosphere in the hall was indescribably depressing and weird. If you didn't know, you would think that a criminal who had committed a heinous crime was about to be interrogated.

And the moment Yan Zhiqiao and Jiang Ciyuan walked into the hall side by side, everyone's eyes fell on them.

Yan Zhiqiao glanced at the entire audience calmly, then sighed in his heart.

The one who comes is not good.

Jiang Ciyuan, who was standing next to them, took a look at the crowd's posture. Although his expression did not change, his eyes looked at the Dragon Queen much more gloomy, with a hint of coldness.

"Greetings to the Queen Mother, the seniors, and the four uncles."

Even though he had many doubts in his mind, Jiang Ciyuan did not forget the etiquette.

He suppressed his displeasure and respectfully bowed and greeted the elders.

Yan Zhiqiao followed suit and spoke right after him.

However, just as she finished her words, she heard the Demon Cat King beside her suddenly sneer.

"Oh, demon girl, why don't you kneel down!"

Those harsh words were like pouring a spoonful of cold water into boiling hot oil, and the atmosphere in the hall dropped to freezing point in an instant.

Without waiting for anyone else to react, the fox king on the opposite side warned with an unhappy look on his face.

"Xun Yi, the truth is not yet known, don't jump to conclusions!"

Yan Linghuan was still unaware of the inside story. When she heard that the Demon Cat King actually linked Yan Zhiqiao to the demon clan, she didn't care about anything else and quickly walked up to Yan Zhiqiao, protecting her behind her.

She looked at Xun Yi with a cold expression, but her eyes fell on Tang He and Qing Yuan, and her tone was neither humble nor arrogant.

“Uncle Xun, I don’t know where you heard the rumor from, but Yan Zhiqiao is my junior sister, a disciple of Lingxiao Sect, and has nothing to do with the demon clan!”

The false accusation came without warning, and everyone was stunned for a moment.

But once Yan Linghuan moved, the other three naturally would not stand still.

They rushed forward and protected Yan Zhiqiao and Jiang Ciyuan in the middle.

As the eldest senior brother, how could Gu Qingyan just stand by and watch?

The charge brought against the Demon Cat King was too serious, and he could see that the three demon kings had come with ill intentions, so he changed his usual gentlemanly demeanor, became respectful and humble, and spoke directly in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty said that my junior sister is a demon girl. Please show us the evidence. Otherwise, if this gets to our master's ears, it will affect the harmony between Lingxiao Sect and the demon cat tribe."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expression of the Demon Cat King suddenly became much colder.

He was too embarrassed to be threatened in public by a junior.

But he had to take Gu Qingyan's words seriously.

If he didn't produce some actual evidence, it would not only be the Demon Cat Clan and the Lingxiao Sect that would have rifts. Given Master Jing Mo's protective nature, he would probably get a beating.

——Fortunately, he had evidence.

"Evidence? Of course I have it."

Xun Yi's majestic gaze shifted from Gu Qingyan's face to Yan Zhiqiao.

Judging from her appearance, this woman is indeed very charming.

Pity…

"Come here, bring the person up to me."

As Xun Xi raised his voice, guards outside the palace immediately responded.

"Yes."

For a moment, Jiang Ciyuan regretted bringing Yan Zhiqiao back to the Dragon Clan.

If he had refused Yan Zhiqiao's invitation that day, perhaps he wouldn't have caused her so much trouble.

Seeing his mother sitting on the high platform with a calm and confident attitude, he withdrew his disappointed gaze and turned to look at Yan Zhiqiao who had a calm face.

He applied slight force with his palm and wrapped her hand tightly.

Not only did he not believe that Yan Zhiqiao was a demon, he also believed that this was a trap set by the Dragon Queen and the Demon Cat King in order to separate him and Yan Zhiqiao.

"Uncle Xun, I hope the evidence you present can convince everyone. Otherwise, when I take over the throne, the dragon clan and the demon cat clan will break apart."

Jiang Ciyuan's tone was deep and slow, seemingly without any anger, but his words revealed an undisguised threat.

Such straightforward words made many people change their expressions immediately.

"Jiang Ciyuan, are you crazy?"

The Dragon Queen was the first to lose her seat, staring at him in disbelief with her eyes wide open.

When her gaze shifted to Yan Zhiqiao, she pointed her hand at her with a fierce look.

"For such a demon girl, you actually want to destroy the peace of the entire demon race?"

Ever since the demon race was born on this continent and gained a place for itself, no matter what storms they have gone through, the demon race has always been united.

Even after the Five Kings came to power, conflicts and rifts sometimes arose between the major ethnic groups, but no one had ever dared to speak as outrageously as Jiang Ciyuan.

The dragon clan and the demon cat clan both hold a very important position in the demon clan. If they ever really break up, the consequences will be disastrous!

Although he appeared calm and composed on the surface, Jiang Ciyuan's emotions were fluctuating greatly inside.

He was already seriously injured and had not yet recovered. After being stimulated like this, his chest, which had originally only been aching slightly, suddenly felt as if it was torn apart.

The overwhelming pain swept over him, but apart from his face turning a little pale, he did not show any sign of weakness.

Looking at Yan Zhiqiao's pupils that dilated slightly because of his words, he gently stroked the back of her hand with his fingertips and responded to the Dragon Queen's accusations in a calm voice.

"She is the person I cherish most, and she is also my Achilles' heel. Now that you have united to slander her and humiliate her, it is equivalent to humiliating me. You do not take me, the great prince of the dragon clan, seriously. If this is the case, why should I care about the so-called peace?"

The dragon's reverse scale cannot be touched.

If the Queen Dragon had directly threatened him and tried every means to frame him, perhaps Jiang Ciyuan would not have been so angry.

But they happened to target Yan Zhiqiao.

"you…"

This kind of resolute attitude of choosing beauty over the world and risking one's life for beauty undoubtedly made the Dragon Queen even more angry and frustrated.

She wanted to make a few more accusations, but was stopped in time by the Fox King beside her.

"queen!"

The Fox King had a very good impression of Yan Zhiqiao, and Patriarch Rang Chen also had a special liking for her, so even though the Demon Cat King had said a lot to him on the way here, he still remained skeptical in his heart.

In order to prevent the situation from developing into an irreversible direction, he had to speak up to help ease the atmosphere.
