Chapter 393: Chapter 254: You Wouldn’t Want Your Son’s Head Crushed by Me, Right? (Chapter 1)_2

"No matter what, my son is definitely not at fault—it’s you all who are in the wrong..."

As for the nine corpses on the ground, she wouldn’t even spare them a glance.

"Lady Florence..." Rose Vesper stepped forward.

When Qin Chu threw the ring into her hands, she knew she had no other choice. She didn’t reveal the contents of the ring immediately, which had compromised her gain; thus, she absolutely had to seize every opportunity to make up for it and improve her image.

This woman was clever, so her attitude became increasingly tougher, firmly grasping the banner of righteousness.

"Your son Onions committed a heinous crime. He defiled six nuns of the Earth Mother Goddess Sect and killed them, storing the bodies in a storage ring."

"Mr. Brave saw through Onions’ crime." She was reluctant to further elevate Qin Chu’s influence, but there was no way to avoid mentioning Qin Chu in this matter: "and he removed Onions’ ring, which he handed to me. In front of Ms. Nadia, Princess Carol, and Mr. Morton—all members from Wise Mountain—the bodies were retrieved from the storage ring..."

Florence finally saw the nuns’ bodies on the ground.

But obviously, Florence did not care about the dead nuns. Her eyes narrowed, and her eyebrows furrowed in anger: "You’re talking nonsense! My son is so obedient and kind-hearted; how could he do such a thing?"

"It must be a conspiracy against my son by you all."

Florence was no fool... under normal circumstances, she could discern right from wrong, provided her son wasn’t involved.

Once it concerned her son, then absolutely nothing could possibly be his fault.

There’s no way those nuns were killed by her son... You say you have evidence? Sorry, I won’t look at it; that evidence is definitely fabricated.

Even if it really was her son who killed them, then it must have been the nuns who attacked first, and her son was forced to retaliate in self-defense.

Her indulgence towards her son had reached the point of obsession and madness.

Rose Vesper sighed heavily, her tone slightly mocking: "You mean to say, Wise Mountain, Holy Court, and the Royal Family have conspired to malign your son?"

"Lady Florence, do you not overvalue your son too much? He lacks both the value and the qualifications to provoke such a conspiracy among the three great powers." Faced with this ultimate child fanatic, Rose Vesper was gradually losing her patience: "Sorry, he’s not worth it."

Talking with Florence was basically impossible. Anything you say that could harm her son, she simply wouldn’t listen, feeling that someone was always trying to frame him.

But these scornful remarks clearly infuriated Florence.

That was her darling, her only son.

This damned little wretch, how dare she look down on her son?

Her fingers clenched unconsciously, her eyes flashing intensely cold, especially when she saw her son covered in blood and tears, his body seemingly trembling from severe pain, which pained her heart even more, her eyes welling up with tears.

Onions’ eyes, full of blood and tears, gazed at Florence, his mouth moving—he wanted to beg his mother to rescue him quickly, but Qin Chu’s slap had knocked out all his teeth, and the agony from his cracked half-face made it impossible for him to utter a sound.

This sight further tore at Florence’s heart.

As for the cold bodies nearby, Florence completely ignored them.

They were just a few nuns; dead is dead, but to hit her son was unforgivable.

A faint hint of murderous intent flickered in her gaze as she scanned the surroundings... Mr. Brave, Rose Vesper, Catherine, Morton, Norma... two women with a slight aura of demon...

And that tall woman.

There were at least eight beings at the Martial God Level.

She was confident in defeating any of them in single combat, but against all of them together, even Florence, confident as she was in her own strength, could not be sure she could take on so many.

Especially Catherine, known for her ferocity in battle, and Morton, an old-hand Martial God with astonishing combat sense.

Still having some rationality and not completely losing control, Florence took a deep breath, repressing the anger within as her eyelids drooped: "The truth of the matter has not yet been clearly investigated..."

"Since that’s the case, just hand Onions over to me. I will certainly investigate this matter thoroughly, and if indeed my son is responsible, I will discipline him appropriately. Neither the Holy Court nor the Hero has the right to judge the Saint Heir of the Earth Mother Goddess Sect, correct?"

Look at how he phrased that.

Six nuns died, and that’s your idea of discipline?

Rose Vesper frowned slightly, momentarily at a loss for words.

Just then, a charming young girl stood up, wielding a whip in her hand. It was none other than Princess Carol of the Oville Empire: "Your Highness Florence, you cannot take Onions."

"Although he is the Saint Heir of the Earth Mother Goddess Sect, and the Holy Court and the Hero naturally do not have the right to judge, these incidents occurred on the territory of the Oville Empire. Onions is not only a Saint Heir but also a citizen of the Empire. Doesn’t the Empire have the right to judge?"

"If you trust the laws of the Empire, then hand Onions over to me. I will ask my father to thoroughly investigate this matter. If it indeed was Onions’ doing, then he will be punished according to imperial law. If not, I will take responsibility to restore Onions’ reputation. How about that?"

Florence’s expression turned icy, damn this little brat. Set aside whether it was her son’s doing or not, even if it was, it was only a few nuns who died. Should her son pay with his life for that?

Though enraged internally, her face showed no signs of it.

Florence even nodded agreeably: "That sounds good, I trust the credibility of the Royal Family."

After giving her son a deep look, ignoring his pitiful howls, Florence turned and left.

Her easy agreement left the crowd incredulous, as it was out of character for Florence. But everyone breathed a sigh of relief, after all, Florence is one of the strongest humans in this world. If a conflict could be avoided, it was for the best.

Amidst Onions’ cries, the crowd gradually dispersed.

Carol approached Qin Chu to handle the prisoner exchange.

Nobody noticed, far in the distance, Florence’s silhouette dispersed like flowing sand.

On the other side, Florence’s figure suddenly emerged from the sand behind her son, her delicate hand gripping his shoulder. In her other hand, a sharp Rock Blade suddenly formed...

With a slicing sound, she swung at Qin Chu’s arm that was grasping her son’s head.

Florence ultimately did not want her son to fall into these people’s hands; these despicable bastards would surely fabricate evidence to frame her son.

As for whether the Hero might get injured or even die, Florence did not care at all.

To say nothing of the lives of six nuns, even the lives of everyone on the Sky Dome Continent combined were far less important to Florence than her own honest, kind, and obedient son.

With a hiss...

The Rock Blade tore through the air, producing a piercing sound.

This sneak attack was fierce and ruthless.

For a moment, no one could react, not even Violet realized how mysteriously Florence’s attack had come.

Just when Qin Chu’s arm was about to be severed, it suddenly radiated a burst of golden light.

It wasn’t Pseudo Absolute Defense, but Earth Element High Order Magic, Rock Armor.

Clang!

The Rock Blade slashed over the Rock Armor, leaving a pale mark but ultimately failing to sever Qin Chu’s arm.

It was Norma. freёnovelkiss-com

Also wielding the power of the Earth, Norma was more sensitive in this aspect than Violet and narrowly managed to save Qin Chu’s arm.

Seeing the failed sneak attack, as Qin Chu unwaveringly held Onions’ head, apparently expecting such a scenario, his lips curled up, and with a snap of his fingers, he said,

"Violet, finish her off!"
