Lord State Uncle Li Zhi, upon hearing this, turned black with anger.
Just a moment ago, Ji Ruyan's words had implied that when he was toasting before The Emperor, his eyes were wandering, inattentive to the decrees, didn't this directly accuse him of being distracted?
As he was pondering how to defend himself, Ji Ruyan continued to taunt him, "Your Majesty, I truly don't understand; does Lord State Uncle have an issue with my victory in the Alchemy Competition today? Is he nitpicking? If Lord State Uncle is dissatisfied with me, then I can leave right now without any problem."
Finishing her words, she pulled Luo Shunchen and Lian Xin to stand up; she was not from You Country and had no obligation to win this competition.
The Divine Artifact of the Guardian God was already in hand, and if Lord State Uncle wanted to stir trouble, she could leave at any time without explanation.
Ji Ruyan's attitude startled everyone.
