As the Great elder Bai Qiuhe spoke, more and more people demanded that Geshu Yuan kneel. How could Geshu Yuan have ever faced such pressure from so many people?
Now, no one was willing to stand up for her, and she had become the target of public criticism. How did things turn out this way?
Even the Third Elder, Geshu Tang, shouted sternly, "Geshu Yuan, kneel! If the Geshu family's reputation is ruined because of you, I will not spare you!"
Geshu Yuan felt a surging sadness and a sense of grievance.
Clearly, Ye Xingguang was just a man-made mermaid, but she made Su Jiayu change her life trajectory.
At the moment Geshu Yuan bent her knee, Ye Xingguang coldly watched Geshu Yuan, and only after she addressed her as Her Majesty, and a full thirty seconds had passed, did she gesture dismissively, saying, "You may rise."
Then, she said to Great elder Bai Qiuhe, "Continue with the ceremony."
