The Supreme Titan's Ruthless Goddess 37 Playing With High Officials 1

Nubbi was kneeling but also sleeping, she didn't see the scene in front of her.

"Nubbi." Xia Lin called her

"Your Phoenix!" she jolted from her sleepy state, seeing her like this Xia Lin shook her head. 'This one has a long way to go before she could be sent her out.'

Nubbi was trying to stand up but her legs gave out, she had been kneeling for three days which was an equivalent of three hours for them, Xi Tian helped her up.

After Xia Lin saw her standing, she immediately started walking in the direction of the Royal court.

Nubbi hadn't even spoken yet but the Phoenix already knew why she was here.

'Her mistress was sure smart.' she thought.

"How many?" Xia Lin asked.

"Huh?" Nubbi turned to Xi Tian to get a translation of what Xia Lin meant.

"How many officials came?" Xi Tian whispered to Nubbi.

"10, Your Phoenix. They have been kneeling for three days."

"What for?"

'huh? How can she ask that? Did she already forgot that she had thrown the country's peerless genius to punitive fire?'

"To beg you to release My lady in waiting."

"Hmmph" Xia Lin smirked.

Outside of the Royal Court, ten officials were kneeling with their head down. They were all angered and outrage at the behavior of the Phoenix, from what Bai Su Zhen had told them; The Phoenix had unjustly accused Ping Ting because she couldn't contain her jealousy.

A Eunuch announced "The Supreme G.o.ddess is entering. Bow to Your Phoenix."

All the elders who were kneeling, kowtow to Xia Lin, "Long Live your Phoenix" they said in unison.

Xia Lin elegantly walked toward the Throne to sit, however, instead of sitting on the Phoenix she sat on the Dragon Throne.

"You may rise." She said while gesturing them to stand up.

The officials started standing up, but they were met with a chock upon laying their eyes on Xia Lin. One of them got so angry that he wants to speak, but before he could say anything Bai Feng's eyes warned him to retreat.

The reason was, Bai Feng knew that it was impossible for Xia Lin to release his daughter without breaking the law, but now she has broken the law by sitting on the Dragon Throne instead of the Phoenix Throne. This meant a chance to corner her into releasing his daughter!

Nubbi also was scared when she saw her mistress skipping her Phoenix Throne to go sit on the Dragon Throne instead. She wanted to tell her but she couldn't because Xia Lin was already seated and she was already facing the officials.

The court remained in awkward silence as the officials were waiting for Xia Lin to allow them to speak; but instead, she was just looking at them as if she was waiting for them to speak without her permission.

Xia Lin knew that when it came to brute force, she might be able to fight and injure a few of them, but now she had to fight them using words and wit instead of her sword. 'Man, this is boring! It would've been much more fun to slash the heart open and break some skulls. I bet they would scream like a little sissy'.

Although that was what she was thinking about when looking at them, her cold expression could only make them watch their behaviors; she looked like she was a predator watching its prey enjoys its food before the prey becomes the predator's food.

She finally gestured with her head for them to speak.

Hong Dali, one of the highest officials walked forwards, "This subject, Hong Dali greets your Phoenix." He said while slightly bowing his head to show respect.

...Silence

When he didn't hear Xia Lin telling him to speak, he slowly raised his head to see if she was gesturing him to speak, but unfortunately, he was met with a nonchalant girl who looked bored to be there.

Xia Lin really wished these people will just cut the chase and get the game. She then gestured him to speak.

"Your Phoenix is magnanimous, We are here to plead for mercy on the Lady in waiting's punishment."

...Silence. ...

All the officials looked up to see why she was silent but then again they saw her being fed grape by Xi Tian. All of them were really boiling with anger, she was clearly disrespecting them,

'She was the Phoenix, so what they had the ability to make her life a living h.e.l.l. She may be the Only Phoenix, but When The Supreme One ascends he is allowed to have concubines! She wouldn't be so c.o.c.ky after she loses favor.'
