In an instant, eleven out of the twelve supremes had their eyes lit up.
Only Lan Muxue had not yet recovered, showing no sign of awareness.
The others, including the Law Sovereign, all gasped in surprise.
Le'er stood here, in front of everyone, like a tall and elegant bamboo standing in a quiet mountain after the rain, her petite body radiating an ethereal and translucent aura.
The Night Emperor's eyes widened.
He stood up in a daze, suddenly overwhelmed by a wave of extreme frustration.
What is this all about?
They casually grabbed a little girl, and she turned out to be a primordial ethereal body?
I really am getting old and muddled! I should have checked this beforehand. If I had taken a look, would I have brought her out in front of everyone?
These old bastards, which one of them isn't sharp-eyed?
Looking around, he saw everyone staring blankly, and his heart felt like it was being scratched by twenty-five cats, a hundred claws gnawing at it.
Which of the supremes didn’t have bright eyes? The moment they saw this little girl, with qualities that could not be concealed, they instantly knew that they had truly encountered a treasure!
Moreover, it was a treasure without an owner!
“Night Emperor!” Xiao Se indignantly spoke up, “You Night Family are truly unreliable and despicable! If there is a grievance, we should find the person responsible, why grab such a little girl? It makes me, a righteous person, furious! This is too much! Far worse than our Xiao Clan.”
Xiao Se waved his hand and said amiably, “Little girl, come here to my side. I will protect you; whoever bullies you, I will deal with them!”
The Night Emperor's eyes turned red with anger. I didn’t see you so excited before; now you see someone and you are suddenly so agitated, clearly trying to dig my corner! “You’re right! Brother Ye, what you did is truly inappropriate.” Ye Qingchou shook his head and sighed, “What a lovely little girl, so beautiful. How could you do this? It makes me extremely angry! Little girl, come here, I will take care of you. Whatever grievances you've suffered, I will stand up for you, come, come to my side.”
“Exactly! This little girl is so adorable; the Night Family is truly… sigh. Little girl, look, I have something good here, come, let me show you… isn’t it pretty?” Chen Mengchi was afraid of falling behind.
The Night Emperor roared in fury, “Shut up! This little girl is someone we invited from the Night Family!”
“Invited?” At this critical moment, who among the second ancestors would show weakness? They mocked back, “Brother Ye, what you said doesn’t even make you blush; truly a strange thing.”
“Everyone, please stop arguing.” The Law Sovereign decisively declared with authority, “Little girl, what is your name?”
Chu Le'er, ice and snow clever, although she still didn’t understand why these old men were arguing over her, realized that the situation was very favorable to her.
Hearing the Law Sovereign's question, Chu Le'er blinked her eyelashes, delicate and pitiful, and shyly said, “I... I am called Le'er…”
The Law Sovereign nodded and smiled, “Le'er, a good name, grow up happily, very good.”
The supremes rolled their eyes in unison.
The name Le'er was indeed nice, but also somewhat ordinary. Throughout the Nine Heavens, there were probably millions of little girls named Le'er. Why didn't the Law Sovereign praise others?
But with what the Law Sovereign said, they understood: it seemed that the Law Sovereign had taken notice of this little girl's talent...
The crowd wisely fell silent.
“How old are you?” the Law Sovereign asked with a smile, his expression revealing an indescribable warmth.
“Twelve years old…” Chu Le'er fidgeted with her clothes.
“Twelve years old…” The Law Sovereign was momentarily stunned; her figure didn’t resemble that of a twelve-year-old. It looked more like a -year-old.
“Come here, let me have a look at you,” the Law Sovereign said.
Chu Le'er timidly lifted her eyes, quickly scanned the surroundings, then lowered her head and walked over.
