g Xiaorou exclaimed. 。Fang Yu hasn't decided yet whether to take the college entrance exam. 。Taking the college entrance exam means going to university. 。For many years, Fang Yu has attended universit...Luchen pleaded repeatedly, while Nan Yuan on the opposite side kept her head bowed, silent.

Empress Xiaoyue still sat calmly on the high platform at the front, without any statement.

The atmosphere in the main hall was extremely oppressive.

As a direct descendant of the ancient Demon Emperor, members of the royal family... actually chose to pledge allegiance to an external force of unknown origins.

Such conduct is a serious crime, and could even be considered treason!

If this were to reach the ears of the Ancient Demon Emperor... Nan Yuan, Lu Chen, Xu Zhenyun, and many other members of the royal family's collateral lines would all be slaughtered!

After Xu Zhenyun was captured by Fang Yu and thrown into the Ancient Demon Prison... Nanyuan knew there was no other choice.

She could only confess everything, leaving her fate in the hands of her mother... Empress Xiaoyue would come to her rescue!

Subordinate bloodlines, mostly the biological offspring of Empress Xiaoyue.

In such a dire situation, Nan Yuan could only gamble.

She hoped her mother... would take pity on all these flesh and blood kin of hers and come to their rescue!

Otherwise, they are doomed!

"Mother…"

When Lu Chen saw that the Queen of Xiao Yue had remained silent, he raised his head and looked towards the high seat in front with tear-filled eyes.

Queen Xiaoyue remained silent.

Lucen's heart sank to the bottom.

At that moment, Empress Xiaoyue suddenly spoke.

Her tone... remained notably flat.

Lu Chen glanced at Nan Yuan, then looked towards the position of Empress Xiao Yue, and kowtowed again while crying out: "Empress Mother, we know we were wrong, we really know we were wrong... Please, you must save us..."

Nan Yuan didn't show any other reaction, she just stood up directly.

Be quiet and get up.

The Empress Xiao Yue spoke again, this time her voice turned somewhat cold.

Lu Chen's cries suddenly stopped.

She looked up and glanced at Nan Yuan across from her, then stood up as well.

"Do you know, as members of the royal family, surrendering to outside forces... carries how much weight in blame" Empress Xiaoyue asked coldly, "Especially your father emperor... absolutely would not accept such a thing."

"We know the consequences, and we've thought them through."

Before Lu Chen could speak, Nanyu had already answered.

"But in the end, we still did it." Nanyuan said calmly, "If our father doesn't give us fairness, then we can only rely on external forces to obtain it. Otherwise, we will always be suppressed by the main lineage bloodline."

"Fairness... how much benefit can they offer you Enough to make you risk everything" Empress Xiaoyue asked.

"There are many benefits. We only need to help them with small things to gain a large amount of cultivation resources." Nan Yuan answered calmly without any fear, "After cooperating with the Holy Academy, my cultivation has progressed rapidly. Mother should have seen it."

"And there's also Elder Zhenyun, Luchen, and even the entire sub-lineage... After cooperating with the Holy Court, they have all shown significant improvement."

"Without the Holy Academy, there would be no such progress."

After hearing this, Queen Xiaoyue remained silent for a moment before saying, "In that case, you still have to thank the Holy Institute."

"No need for thanks, we are simply in a cooperative relationship, each taking what we need," Nan Yuan replied. "Of course, judging from the previous situation, what we have received...is not proportional to what we have put in. I've also thought about the intentions of the Holy Institute, but haven't gotten any clues."

Besides, I don't want to delve into it further.

"To me, cultivation is the most important thing. If we want to change our circumstances, we must reach the top! Otherwise, our offspring of inferior bloodlines will never be able to turn things around!"

"Bang!"

When Nan Yuan said the last words, her cheek was slapped. A crisp sound echoed through the hall!

Nanyuan covered her left cheek and stood still, gazing at Empress Xiaoyue with unwavering determination in her eyes, showing no fear whatsoever.

But on the opposite side, Lucheng had his eyes wide open, looking at Nanyu in disbelief.

She didn't expect that Nanyu would actually dare to mention the term 'inferior bloodline' in front of their mother.

This word, for a mother... is the ultimate humiliation!

This term, originating from members of the main lineage, is a derisive expression used towards those belonging to the secondary lineage.

Anything born from Empress Xiaoyue is inferior blood, no comparison to their noble mainline lineage!

After this statement was released, the status of the members of the collateral bloodline within the entire Ancient Demon Emperor Clan... dropped again.

Even some opinions do not even consider the collateral bloodline as royal!

"Mother, Mother…" Lu Chen trembled, wanting to say something.

"Isn't that so Am I not speaking the truth"

Just then, Nan Yuan spoke again, her voice trembling with excitement.

"Those are the words those people use to humiliate us. If we don't say them, do they cease to exist" Nanyu stared straight at the spot where Empress Xiaoyue should be, gritting her teeth and saying, "Do you think that if we keep retreating and conceding, our lives will get better"

"No! Our retreat will only embolden them, allowing them to further encroach upon our living space and make the environment even worse. In the end, there will be no place for us left in the Ancient Demon Star System!"ks... like he's not very strong.""She was thin and her aura was completely overshadowed by Murong Jian.""Zhanlong Pavilion should win two consecutive games to enter the top 25."Most of the audience wa...
