The elder was subjugated by the Big Black Cat's coercion, standing petrified, unable to speak.
Another elder clenched his teeth, looking angrily at the Saintess who still stood by the side of the young man in white. He snarled, "Saintess, all of this is your doing. If it weren't for you, Vice Sect Leader Liu would still be alive."
"..."
The Saintess was questioned by these elders under her command and was momentarily left speechless.
"Hmph!"
The elder, gaining assertiveness, continued, "I will report this to the Sect. Your position as Saintess will not be spared."
With her head down, the Saintess felt sorrowful, tears flickering at the corners of her eyes.
"Right, you're no longer the Saintess of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird!"
The other elders, speaking with one voice, concurred, filled with righteous indignation.
The Saintess lowered her head even more, tears welling up and streaming down her face. Her body was shaking uncontrollably.
