"If you want to find the Elder to settle this, then do as you please," Bai Li Hongzhuang replied in a dismissive tone.
With those words, Bai Li Hongzhuang walked past Han Xilin without hesitation and headed towards the palace.
Han Xilin had already pushed Bai Li Hongzhuang's limits by confronting her earlier, and now she dared to show such arrogance towards her friends as well. It was simply unbearable!
At this point, Han Xilin had run out of options, and even if she did bring the Elder, it wouldn't change anything. Ultimately, Han Xilin would be the one who would end up in an embarrassing situation.
Following Bai Li Hongzhuang, Blackwood, Xia Zhiqing, and the others disregarded Han Xilin and Tao Congrong. They now felt nothing but disgust for this woman. Xia Zhiqing and Zhan Yunfeng exchanged a glance, their faces filled with astonishment. They hadn't expected Bai Li Hongzhuang to exude such dominance.
Back in the Falling Cloud Mountain Range, Han Xilin used to look down on Hongzhuang with an air of superiority. But now, in just a short period of time, the situation had completely changed. Thinking back to how furious Han Xilin had been just now, her teeth grinding in anger, it was a far cry from her previous ethereal and lofty demeanor.
Han Xilin almost bit her silver teeth in rage as she saw Bai Li Hongzhuang confidently walking past her. "Damn it!" she exclaimed angrily. Bai Li Hongzhuang truly didn't regard her at all!
"Miss, Bai Li Hongzhuang is too arrogant. If we don't deal with her properly, she will become uncontrollable in the future!" Tao Congrong also felt indignant. She had never seen anyone in Tian Gang Sect dare to speak to Miss in such a manner. Bai Li Hongzhuang's audacity knew no bounds!
"She will eventually realize that she's nothing!" Han Xilin clenched her fists, and a surging killing intent formed a storm in her heart. She would never let Bai Li Hongzhuang continue to be so arrogant in front of her.
Seeing Han Xilin's furious appearance, Tao Congrong didn't dare to say more. She believed that Miss would come up with a way to deal with Bai Li Hongzhuang.
Only when they reached Emperor Beichen's palace area did the tense group of people finally relax a little.
"Wife, now that Xia Miss and the others have arrived, I'll take my leave," Blackwood bowed to Bai Li Hongzhuang and respectfully said.
Bai Li Hongzhuang nodded slightly, her smile serene and ethereal. "You've come a long way, so go and rest."
"Thank you, Wife."
After Blackwood and Heiming left, Xia Zhiqing was the first to approach Bai Li Hongzhuang. "Hongzhuang, you were so domineering just now! Han Xilin must have been driven mad by you!"
"Yes, I can't believe the contrast between the current Han Xilin and the one who used to look down on you. It's such a drastic change," Xia Zhiqing said with a hint of amazement.
Bai Li Hongzhuang smiled lightly, "She is now powerless, which is why she has become like this. I'm sorry to have troubled you all."
Upon hearing this, Xia Zhiqing waved her hand dismissively, "What's the big deal? Just thinking about Han Xilin's appearance earlier made me feel so refreshed!"
Bai Li Hongzhuang looked at Xia Zhiqing's cheerful demeanor and the smile in her eyes deepened. "It's been a while, but you haven't changed a bit."
"Hongzhuang, I've missed you so much during this time!" Xia Zhiqing exclaimed, her arms wrapping around Bai Li Hongzhuang. Bai Li Hongzhuang didn't refuse and also extended her arms to embrace Xia Zhiqing.
