454: Chapter 454 Betrayal
Dantai Qingyue frowned slightly and spoke calmly, "Qingyi is not an outsider."
It was fine as long as she didn't speak, but as soon as she did, the six martial sisters present immediately erupted.
Jiang Ling clenched her small fists and said indignantly, "Master, so you're saying the child in your womb really belongs to Qin Ge!?"
To this day, she was still a pure maiden.
Yet previously, because of the storage of the Origin power, she and Qin Ge had experienced a communion of their Divine Souls.
It was ambiguous and unclear.
She had originally thought that one day, Master would be able to make decisions on her behalf.
Who would have thought that her noble and holy Beautiful Master...
...would actually come from behind and get pregnant with Qin Ge's child!?
Long Lingyin crossed her arms indignantly and said with dissatisfaction, "Master, shouldn't you give us an explanation now!?"
Su Yaoyao nodded, "Exactly! Give us an explanation; I cannot accept this!"
Shangguan Yuer hid behind the five martial sisters and teased in a mocking tone, "What a clever move—feigning a diversion while acting in secret!"
Qin Huanhuan clenched her small fists regretfully, "If I had known, I should have stayed in Yunhai City!"
*Cough, cough—*
Ruan Xingrou tilted her snowy-white neck arrogantly, coughed twice to draw everyone's attention, and snorted coldly, "We were fighting for our lives in the Doomsday World, battling the Demon Race with everything we had, yet you, Master, turned hostility into friendship with the Desire Demoness, and together you're all lovey-dovey with Qin Ge."
"You have betrayed the Bright Moon Sect!"
"And even more so, you've betrayed us Seven Martial Sisters!"
Qin Huanhuan and the other girls echoed without hesitation, "Right! What Xingrou said is absolutely correct!"
"Master, you've gone too far this time!"
"Even with the hierarchy of respect, we cannot accept such an absurd fact!"
*Hehe—*
Ruan Xingrou looked at her martial sisters, who shared a common enemy, feeling an indescribable sense of pride.
In the past, whether it was Revered Master or her martial sisters, everyone thought she, Ruan Xingrou, was a pervert.
Now, it was finally time for her, Ruan Xingrou, to take command!?
Actually, what had happened could not be changed.
After all, no matter how much they protested, they couldn't target the child in Master's womb.
Even if they didn't consider Master's feelings, they had to consider Qin Ge's.
That was Qin Ge's first child.
A future Legitimate Son or daughter.
Only a fool would point fingers at the child in Qingyue's womb.
Right now, they wanted to stand on the moral high ground and point fingers at their once pure and noble Revered Master.
They wanted to suppress Master in terms of Aura!
They wanted Master to feel that she no longer had the right to restrain their behavior in the future.
Otherwise, once Master joined the Qin Family...
...wouldn't the Seven Martial Sisters become Master's subordinates!?
That was something Ruan Xingrou, as well as Qin Huanhuan and the other girls, could not accept!
*Whew—*
Dantai Qingyue slowly exhaled a breath of clear Qi.
She closed her eyes, feeling extremely weary.
"Enough!"
Qin Ge waved his hand, interrupting the questioning from Ruan Xingrou and the other six girls.
That's enough for now!
Suppressing Dantai Qingyue's aloof personality slightly was enough to prevent her from meddling in his back garden in the future.
His goal had been achieved.
If he let Ruan Xingrou and the others continue to be so aggressive and truly upset Dantai Qingyue, it would be counterproductive!
"Qin Ge, do you think you're in the right!?"
"You're already entangled with us martial sisters, and now you haven't even spared our Master!"
"Are you trying to catch our entire Bright Moon Sect in one net!?"
Long Lingyin frowned with dissatisfaction, crossed her arms, and glared at Qin Ge.
Back then, Qin Ge had promised to let her get pregnant and have the child take the Long family's name.
But up until now, let alone being pregnant...
...even the chances to be with Qin Ge had become rare.
Jiang Ling also gritted her teeth, "Qin Ge, how noble and holy is our Master!? She is the guardian of this plane! She is beyond mortal concerns."
"And now, you've forcibly dragged such a fallen immortal down to the mortal realm, and you still have the nerve to step in and mediate!?"
Ever since that incident, she had been constantly uneasy.
She was wondering, if Qin Ge were to pursue her, should she accept?
Or should she be reserved for a while before accepting?
As it turned out, let alone pursuing her...
...after that time, Qin Ge hadn't even met with her alone.
He had simply left her with a cold shiver for nothing.
In the end, not only did he not take responsibility...
...but he even got her Master pregnant!
"Two Senior Sisters, Young Master Qin, he..."
Ye Qingyi bit her lip and forced herself to step forward again.
She felt that at this time, Young Master Qin shouldn't be speaking.
It would easily provoke anger.
Yet, Young Master Qin couldn't bear to see Master Qingyue in a difficult position and stepped forward.
This forced her to brace herself and try to mediate once again.
"Ye Qingyi!"
"According to seniority, you're already considered the ninth!"
"When the Eldest Senior Sister and I are speaking, it's not your place to butt in!"
Long Lingyin frowned and glared at Ye Qingyi.
This time, before Qin Ge could speak...
Ruan Xingrou was the first to jump out, "Third Senior Sister, Eldest Senior Sister, it's not that I'm criticizing you, but Ye Qingyi has, after all, received Master's approval."
"What are you doing talking about seniority here?"
"According to seniority?"
"If we go by the Bright Moon Sect's seniority, then our earlier scolding of Master was an act of insubordination!"
???
Jiang Ling, Long Lingyin, Su Yaoyao, Shangguan Yuer, and Qin Huanhuan—the five girls—along with Dantai Qingyue and Ye Qingyi, all turned their heads at the same time and stared at Ruan Xingrou.
They hadn't expected that Ruan Xingrou, who had just been scolding Master the most harshly and relentlessly, would actually defect at the last moment!?
"Ye Qingyi, do you know the full story?"
Ruan Xingrou ignored the disdainful looks from her five martial sisters and stared at Ye Qingyi, asking softly.
Ye Qingyi nodded and, driven by her previous curiosity, revealed the truth she had learned, "Actually, Master Qingyue and Young Master Qin were because of Master Yun Qing's previous..."
Ruan Xingrou nodded solemnly as she listened.
Once Ye Qingyi finished, she clapped her hands and said seriously, "So that's how it is!"
"After all that, it was all trouble stirred up by that Desire Demoness!"
She turned to Jiang Ling and the other four girls and said seriously, "Senior Sisters, Junior Sister! How insidious was the Desire Cage set by the Desire Demoness? At that time, Master was consumed by the Demoness's Fire and her life was in danger. Qin Ge stepped forward to save Master from her plight. Is he wrong?"
Ruan Xingrou answered her own question, "Qin Ge is not wrong! Not only is he not wrong, but he's actually performed a great service!"
"If it weren't for Qin Ge's rescue, we might not even be able to see Master now!"
While making excuses for Qin Ge, Ruan Xingrou couldn't help but roll her eyes inwardly.
She thought to herself that her martial sisters had practically muddled their brains with cultivation!
Scolding Master was one thing.
But now the Eldest Senior Sister and Third Senior Sister were shifting the blame and actually wanted to scold Qin Ge too?
Pushing your luck, aren't you?
Her accusing Master wasn't meant to make her an enemy.
She wanted to have more of a say by Qin Ge's side, rather than being Master's subordinate.
Offending Master was for the sake of being with Qin Ge more easily.
But the other martial sisters had let their anger get to their heads and were attacking Qin Ge as well.
Damn it, wasn't this just forcing Qin Ge and Master into the same camp?
