Yin Chuan shivered instinctively. His nature was upright and kind, and he had no intention of defending Miao Xiaocui's actions. In fact, he was also furious!
Shu An was so young, and she did that to such a young child... it was too terrifying!
He pursed his lips and recounted what he had seen, "Sister Shu Yue, it was Sister Cui who put Shu An in a bag and buried... buried her next to the latrine. I was curious and dug her out to look, and I didn't expect..."
Shu Yue's eyes turned cold, and her body grew colder. If it weren't for Yin Chuan, her Shu An might truly... still be buried in such a place. Miao Xiaocui, how dare you!
Clenching her fists, she bowed deeply to Yin Chuan, "Xiao Chuan, thank you for saving Shu An."
Yin Chuan dared not accept such a grand gesture and quickly sidestepped, stammering, "No, no need to thank me, it's what I should do!"
Their good lives were given by the Shu Xin sisters. Everyone in Warrior City was deeply grateful to them in their hearts. Even though they were females, they were respected by everyone.
Shu Yue took a deep breath, calming the anger in her heart, and said sincerely, "Xiao Chuan, if you have any difficulties in the future, tell me, and I will do my best to help you. But Xiao Chuan, there's one more thing I hope you can help me with."
Yin Chuan asked, "What is it?"
"Be my witness." Shu Yue took a deep breath. Miao Xiaocui, you've touched my reverse scale!
...
"So lively, what happened?"
"Did you hear? Cui buried Shu Yue's little female alive..."
"Heavens! Is this really true?"
"Ah? How could she be so vicious?"
Miao Miao stood in the crowd, unable to believe her ears. Did Cui really do this? Why would she do it?
It wasn't just Miao Miao who was suspicious. Miao Xiaocui's mates also looked anxious. They had just returned from a hunt, and such a big incident had occurred?
In the central square under the twilight, which was originally a place for celebrating festivals and sacrifices, a ten-meter-tall pillar now stood, with a person tied to it. It was Miao Xiaocui.
Miao Xiaocui watched as more and more tribesmen gathered, some flustered, some fearful, but most of them filled with hatred!
Her cheeks were swollen, and her eyes, filled with poison, stared fixedly at Yin Chuan. She would never have imagined that it was he who betrayed her!
Baron held a long whip, and his stern pupils reflected a cold glint. This was the first time he had faced a female with such a gaze!
His little granddaughter was so innocent and cute, how dare this vicious female do such a thing!
Fox Shaya Ya and other females who were close to Shu Yue were furious, their faces flushed red. It could be said that they too had never seen a female attack a cub!
Unforgivable! No matter how much the adults of the two families disagreed, they couldn't attack the other's cubs. Children were innocent!
Miao Xiaocui had not only touched Shu Yue's reverse scale but also the reverse scale of all the females. Which tribe would keep a female who harmed cubs?
Wente struggled to suppress his anger, lest he strangle this vicious female on the spot!
In front of the pillar, Yin Chuan was recounting the facts he had witnessed. Midway through, Miao Xiaocui screamed and questioned, "Yin Chuan, I treated you well, why are you betraying me!"
Yin Chuan looked back at her. The少年's eyes were filled with anger and condemnation, but no apology or shame. "It doesn't matter how you treat me, Sister Cui, but you shouldn't have buried little Shu An alive. If I hadn't dug her out in time, Shu An would have really died. How could you bear to do this to a child?"
Even as a male, he couldn't bring himself to do it, yet Miao Xiaocui, a female, had such a cruel heart!
The words "buried alive" struck heavily in the hearts of the tribesmen. Wente and his wife wished they could bury her alive right now and let her experience the feeling of suffocation!
However, Yin Xiao and others were now somewhat suffocated. None of them could believe that their gentle mate would do such a thing!
Miao Xiaocui screamed in her own defense, "What do you know! You know nothing!"
"Shu Yue harmed my child and seduced my mate. I was just getting revenge! Just revenge!"
Hearing this, Shu Yue's anger also surged. "Miao Xiaocui, speak clearly. When did I harm your child, and when did I seduce your mate? Of your mates, which one can compare to my Wente?"
"Do you have delusions and spout slanderous words as soon as you open your mouth?"
Miao Xiaocui stared at her intently, offering no explanation, only a cold laugh. If she had been tied to the top of the ten-meter pillar before, she would have been so terrified that her legs would have gone weak, let alone being stared at by countless eyes that held not admiration and respect, but disgust and fear.
However, at this moment, she was not afraid at all. Her heart was filled only with grievance and overwhelming hatred!
Miao Xiaocui laughed mockingly, "Didn't you all say I was a messenger of the Beast God? Is this how you treat a messenger?"
This sudden remark made the tribesmen gasp. Yes, this female had another identity.
A'Man sneered, "Messenger of the Beast God? How dare you mention it? Are you? Do you deserve it!"
His daughter-in-law was almost lost. His anger was no less than Wente's!
A'Man usually appeared carefree, but Shu Yue's children had grown up under his watch, just like his own children. He would not allow anyone to harm his children!
Baron sneered and announced, "I forgot to tell everyone something. Miao Xiaocui is not a messenger of the Beast God; she is just an ordinary female. I have never acknowledged her as one. Although I don't know how you all came to believe she is a messenger of the Beast God, I am now telling everyone clearly, she is not."
As soon as these words were spoken, the tribesmen looked at each other. The City Lord hadn't said anything? They thought carefully, and it seemed he had never publicly acknowledged it!
Then where did the news of Miao Xiaocui being a messenger of the Beast God come from?
Miao Miao was stunned and shouted loudly, "It was that old woman who said it! If Cui is not a messenger of the Beast God, why were those beasts kidnapping us years ago!"
Miao Miao's loud question was met with no answer from the surroundings. Bai Ling had a good memory, and the kidnapping incident was still fresh in her mind. She recalled carefully. It seemed that after they were rescued, City Lord Baron had not made any explanation about Miao Xiaocui's identity, only stating that there was no messenger of the Beast God in the tribe.
So, they had been mistaken all along?
Miao Xiaocui showed no surprise at Baron's statement. Perhaps she had come to terms with it herself over the years, but that didn't mean she would let the matter rest.
She said sarcastically, "City Lord, you are truly amazing. With a single sentence, you've negated all my hard work?"
"I may not be a messenger of the Beast God, but Warrior City has become so good. Do you dare say I had no part in it?"
"Look at the bamboo baskets, nets, clothes, and the crops that fill your stomachs in every household. Which one did you not get from me? I was merely seeking personal revenge, and this is how you treat me? Is this not repaying kindness with enmity?"
