The guardian Elder's accusation rang in everyone's ears.
Xiao Mo calmly glanced at the guardian Elder, then looked away. He turned to Tushan Jing Ci and said, "Miss, I did this. It has nothing to do with you. I'll handle it."
With that, Xiao Mo started to step forward.
But Tushan Jing Ci threw her arms out, blocking Xiao Mo's path.
"Xiao Mo, you're one of my people! Your business is my business. How could this possibly have nothing to do with me?"
Tushan Jing Ci pouted angrily, then spun around. Like a little mother hen, she shielded Xiao Mo behind her and spoke to the guardian Elders with righteous indignation:
"My Xiao Mo isn't the type to start fights for no reason!"
"Your Scholar's Attendants must have done something awful!"
"If anyone should be apologizing, it's you!"
"Besides, four of your Scholar's Attendants couldn't even beat my one Xiao Mo. How dare you complain?"
"Aren't you ashamed of yourselves?"
"Shame on you!"
"Nyah!"
