Chapter 777 Your Highness, It’s Time for You to Take Your Medicine (119)
Xing Rong: ...
Her heart was beating fast and she glared at Tian Jie fiercely. She quickly withdrew from his arms, hugged a pillow, and shrank into the corner to find a comfortable position, curling up like a well-behaved cat.
Tianjie, whose arms suddenly felt empty, was like a wronged child, pouting and looking as pitiful as he could be.
He knew that she didn't like facing so many people, so he continued to stick to her like a dog-skin plaster, hugging one of her arms tightly and refusing to let go.
Although Xing Rong was somewhat resentful of him for letting so many people in, considering his status, she could not explain too much and had to let him come over to cling to her. She waited quietly until they were completely quiet before she began to answer the question that everyone wanted to know the most.
"Planet X is indeed gone. All the creatures that were on that planet at the time have been wiped out." Just as she was about to continue, Max was like a ignited powder keg, roaring angrily: "What did you say! What about those people? How can you just stand by and watch them die!"
Xing Rong looked at him with a gaze that gradually became as cold as ice, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Why, why didn't you go to save them? Why were you only concerned with taking your son to escape at that time, but now you only roar at me like a mad dog? If you can't bear to leave them, you can also go to accompany them."
Max was furious when he heard this, "You..."
Tian Jie's expression was as cold as ice, as if he could freeze the whole world. "Max!" His voice was as serious as a thunder, and full of warning, as if telling Max that if he dared to say another word, he would never see tomorrow's sunrise alive.
"What? You have the nerve to yell at me but can't refute him?" Xing Rong continued to mock him in a tone as calm as dead water, "Why do you think Hunter next to you has become so ugly?"
Hunter, who was suddenly called, just had a slight flash of his eyes, then buried his head in the sand like an ostrich, not daring to say a word.
But Xing Rong's words were like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, stirring up thousands of waves. Everyone's eyes were focused on him like a spotlight.
The wrinkles that were extremely disproportionate to his current age had climbed up his face like ivy. His hair had turned gray as frost, and his hands, which had once been firm and beautiful, were now like dry branches, looking like an old man.
"Why do you think your eldest prince went to Planet Z to mine energy? Why was Kwins so good to Huntley, and why did Huntley want to cripple his eldest brother's legs so that he could become king?"
"Planet X has long been in ruins. If it weren't for the energy mines that kept the planet going and your king who kept it alive, you would have been wiped out along with the planet."
Hunter Lee still couldn't believe it, "You really knew it a long time ago? How did you know?" If he hadn't been naughty as a child and liked to hide everywhere, and if he hadn't accidentally overheard the conversation between his father and grandfather, he would probably have been kept in the dark until now.
Moreover, he was ignorant at that time. It was only after he grew up and saw his brother frequently going to Planet Z to dig energy mines that he suddenly remembered this matter.
However, Xing Rong said calmly: "Is this difficult?" As long as she had some doubts in her heart, she only needed to take a quick peek into the interior of the planet and she would know.
Max still didn't believe it, "You're lying! You said there's an energy mine, how could you possibly need him to keep Planet X alive? He can barely be considered an S-class!"
"Want to know why?" Xing Rong seemed to be interested. She raised her eyebrows like a lively willow leaf. The next moment, she threw a small piece of energy stone into Max's arms.
The two energies surged like wild horses, and Maxton felt as if his body was about to be torn apart. Something was drilling into his body like millions of ants. After a few seconds, all the energy was instantly drained away like a tide. A bean-sized bead of sweat slid down his forehead, and Xing's voice, as cold as the water of a cold pond, came to his ears again, "Do you know why?"
Max nodded in astonishment, "Purification."
Xing Rong stopped looking at him and her gaze fell on the housekeeper, "Uncle Xiuen, I'm fine and Mingxi is fine too. Thank you for worrying about me." After saying that, she did not forget to give him a smile as blooming as a spring flower.
The others were all dumbfounded: Why did she only smile at Huen? She treated them differently!
Her smile faded, and she turned her gaze to Bei Haici, "As for you...he and Uncle Huen already knew my identity, and I don't want to say anything more about the past. I only know that you are his aunt, and I don't know what you mean by remembering or not."
Bei Haici couldn't help but feel a little sad, but it was no wonder she had saved so many people, how could she remember every one of them.
