Her voice was terribly weaker than before, as if it could disappear into the air at any time. However, after she waited quietly for a while, she only saw Yuan Yuxue lower his head slightly and looked at her calmly.
There was no other emotion in those dark eyes.
It was probably a long time later - this is what Xiao Qi felt. In fact, Yuan Yuxue responded very quickly - he shook his head very slightly, and the emotion in his eyes did not show strong resistance, but seemed inexplicably firm.
"No".
At that moment, Xiao Qi felt her stomach drop to the bottom. Her mood seemed to become very bad, and she couldn't wait to ask Yuan Yuxue why she rejected her. But in fact, she just stayed there, suddenly closed her eyes, lonely, and even looked a little pitiful.
But for some people, they would not pity Xiao Qi just because of her bad mood - on the other hand, the villagers who heard Xiao Qi's words were as if they had been blatantly and directly offended, and strange and angry sounds rolled out of their throats.
Xiao Qi betrayed them!
Although they were not originally in the same camp, the nature of this was different. The villagers believed that Xiao Qi had not only betrayed them, but also betrayed the "God". She actually tried to join forces with some outsiders who did not respect the gods, in order to gain false love through deception.
In the explosion of anger, those "vines" burst out from the dormant ground in large numbers, and along with the cracked stones, they wanted to devour Yuan Yuxue once again.
But for some reason, the altar didn't seem to exclude Xiao Qi from its part as a sacrificer, and Xiao Qi still enjoyed the right to use the altar's energy. After she realized the actions of the villagers, she frowned slightly, and then more vines grew under her control, resisting those man-eating vines that were more like monsters than "plants", in order to prevent them from having any chance of contacting Yuan Yuxue - although this obviously violated the "great consciousness" and made her consumption extremely huge, her face was as pale as paper, and her cheeks seemed to be slightly sunken, showing a strange sick air.
So Yuan Yuxue frowned slightly again.
I don’t know if it was because of the vines that wanted to attack him at this moment, or because of some other... reasons.
Po Hong Meng appeared in his palm again without making a sound. The jet-black scabbard fell into the snow-white color, creating a huge contrast. And the sharpest point of the long sword also quietly changed direction.
"Are you awake?"
While dealing with the villagers, Xiao Qi was distracted and spoke again.
But this time, she was not talking to Yuan Yuxue - but to the person Yuan Yuxue was hugging.
This was also the "sacrifice" that Yuan Yuxue stubbornly wanted to take away.
The young man's eyes dropped slightly, and fell on the mermaid leader for a short time, and then moved away quickly.
No matter what Xiao Qi wanted to say to her, her freedom should not be interfered with by anyone else, so Yuan Yuxue did not say anything to stop her.
