Everyone widened their eyes in disbelief.
The Green Simurgh Sword, which even the Phoenix Girl could not draw, was unexpectedly pulled out by an obscure junior sister.
Before today, they had never even heard of her so-called name.
Even her entry into the palace today was by riding on the coattails of Elder Yan.
Did Gongsun Yanming know about this?

She had even used her inner strength.
"There's something wrong with the sword!"
Consort Hu snapped out of her daze and declared decisively.
