I Am To Blame

Inside the large, imposing hall sat a rather menacing fox god, whose ire was so great it took him extra effort to mask his emotions.

While Li Meirong was admonished by her peers and huddled in fear before him, he barely managed to restrain himself, doing his best to heed his father's reprimands.

"Reign in your temper," Bai Zhang told him.

Bai Qingyue had a reputation as a fearsome being, who rarely displayed any expression or emotion. His reputation meant nothing with his one weak point being mistreated right in front of him. It took every ounce of his control to hold himself back from lashing out at the offensive mob.

Li Meirong was the future High Goddess of the Huli Jing clan in Celestial Realm. How dare these vermin speak ill of her?

Still, he ground his teeth and managed to remain composed, observing the hall in silence.
