Consort Mei, relying on Jing Tian'ao's arrival, couldn't help but embellish her words, spitting out saliva as she spoke more and more passionately. After finishing, she didn't forget to shoot a triumphant glare at Huxin, completely forgetting how Huxin had previously left her speechless.
Jing Tian'ao's cold eyes quickly scanned Huxin, not really paying attention to what Consort Mei was loudly proclaiming. His Mo Tong narrowed slightly, and when his gaze landed on Huxin, there was a moment of complex astonishment. How could this calm and clear-eyed girl before him still be the same Xia Huxin who had been infatuated with him day in and day out?
A myriad of emotions surged within Jing Tian'ao, making it hard to express.
His expression grew three points colder.
“Xia Huxin, do you have anything to say?” Jing Tian'ao spoke coldly, harboring unspoken resentment and dissatisfaction towards the now uncontrollable Huxin.
“Prince Ping, how can you listen to Xia Huxin's nonsense? She is nothing but a madwoman now, only capable of scaring people with that Vajra Furnace. You should take me and Le Yi back to the palace to report everything that has happened here to the Emperor and Empress Dowager, so that Xia Huxin doesn't continue to wreak havoc in the world!”
Consort Mei would not allow Huxin to speak; as soon as Jing Tian'ao finished his words, she hurriedly interjected.
A chill ran through Jing Tian'ao, his eyes filled with deep disgust for Consort Mei.
He had come to the Xia Family not to rescue Consort Mei and Le Yi, but simply to see Xia Yingba. He had heard that yesterday, Xia Huxin had used the Vajra Furnace to melt Liang Siqian's hand, which made him increasingly suspicious of the current state of Huxin. Today, he unexpectedly found Xuan Yuan Ling also present, stirring an inexplicable jealousy within him.
“What happened today at the Xia Family, I will draw my own conclusions! No need for you to say more, my lady.” Jing Tian'ao spoke coldly, his expression growing increasingly grim and terrifying. Originally wanting to add fuel to the fire, upon seeing Jing Tian'ao’s expression, Consort Mei unwillingly shut her mouth, though her gaze towards Huxin was filled with undisguised pride and malice.
“Xia Huxin, I want to hear what you have to say now!” Jing Tian'ao looked at Huxin again. The calmer and more composed her expression became, the more intense his jealousy grew.
“Prince Ping, you must think carefully! This Xia Huxin is best at twisting facts and creating chaos; you have seen how she clung to you in the past. How can you still believe what she says? You should hurry and take Le Yi and the lady into the palace…”
"Scoundrel! When did it become your place to speak up in matters of This King?" Jing Tian'ao's inquiry towards Huxin was once again interrupted by Le Yi. Jing Tian'ao couldn't help but let out a low growl, his expression as cold as frost. The usually composed and dignified Jing Tian'ao was now revealing a side of irritation and anger.
Xuan Yuan Ling looked at Jing Tian'ao in this state, a deep mockery evident in his eyes. Le Yi shivered violently; he had always admired and respected Jing Tian'ao, but today he had momentarily lost himself in arrogance, neglecting the king's undeniable authority.
Xuan Yuan Ling watched the expressions of Jing Tian'ao and the others with cold amusement. He then stood up and strode over to Huxin, dressed in fiery red, as passionate as the gaze he directed at her. The fervent look in Xuan Yuan Ling's eyes made Jing Tian'ao clench his fists tightly beneath his wide sleeves, the back of his hands turning pale with cold fury.
"Sister Huxin, that Vajra Furnace was still warm in my hands yesterday before being tricked away by Red Hawk. Had I known that Gu Xuanhong would go back on his word just to please you, I might as well have handed it over to you myself last night. That way, Sister Huxin, you would still owe me a favor, wouldn't you? Now it seems I've unwittingly given an advantage to that scoundrel Gu Xuanhong. It's hardly worth it when I think about it."
When Xuan Yuan Ling mentioned Gu Xuanhong, his mind automatically associated the exquisitely beautiful face of Gu Xuanhong with that of a Nine-Tailed Silver Fox.
