Chapter 292: Chapter 292: After Disguising Herself as a Man, the Rabbit Spirit Ran Away with Her Child 2 Chapter 292: Chapter 292: After Disguising Herself as a Man, the Rabbit Spirit Ran Away with Her Child 2 Su Zhiruan’s words had barely finished when the entire place fell into silence.

Whether it was the other Demon Clan members or the Rabbit Clan Leader, everyone was stunned. All eyes were on Su Zhiruan, yet she displayed no signs of intimidation, boldly raising her arm to show.

“You, what did you say–?” The Clan Leader was confronted by this young girl and felt his face couldn’t hold up, becoming angry after being embarrassed and raising his voice, “Ridiculous! I, the esteemed Clan Leader, bully you?! If others heard this, wouldn’t they laugh their teeth off! Su Zhiruan! If you’re late, you’re late, why come up with such slanderous rumors to defame my family?!”

Su Zhiruan snickered, “So the Clan Leader is suggesting everything I said was made up, just to frame you?”

“You– Anyway, my family acts with integrity and would certainly never do anything like bullying an orphan!” The Clan Leader said defiantly, glaring at Su Zhiruan.

“Oh?”

Among the other Demon Clan envoys, the man leading them suddenly commented with a smirk, “I am not familiar with the Rabbit Clan’s customs, but I do have a suggestion–just bring out the Clan Leader’s daughter, have her confront the situation directly, and we will uncover the truth of the matter.”

“This… that’s not necessary…” Knowing his daughter’s true colors, the Clan Leader felt a cold sweat and knew if there were a confrontation, it was clear they would be the ones in the wrong.

It was only now that the Clan Leader began to regret why he had to bother Su Zhiruan in the first place. If only he had sent her off quickly!

“Clan Leader, none of the distinguished guests here are fools; your daughter is overbearing and often bullies me, a lone orphan girl. And now, when someone is needed to face death, you picked me first,” Su Zhiruan raised an eyebrow, “Your family wishes to kill me, and now that I am about to be taken to the Upper Realm, you still want to dump this mess on me, isn’t that a bit too narrow-minded and petty?”

She said whatever she wanted to say, watching as the Clan Leader’s face grew paler and in the end, even his fingers trembled.

“What do you want?” The Clan Leader looked at the envoys below, who had come to take Su Zhiruan away. If there was a delay, other Demon Clans would have objections to their Rabbit Clan.

In the end, with gritted teeth, the Clan Leader could only concede, “What is it that you want? As long as it’s within my power, I will grant it! Is that enough?”

“I didn’t expect the Clan Leader to be quite generous,” Su Zhiruan was satisfied. She clapped her hands and stated her demands, “I want to pick two Protective Magical Artifacts from your treasury, and have your daughter personally come and apologize to me! These two requests should be simple for you, right?”

The Clan Leader frowned, about to object.

But at that moment, the young man who had spoken for Su Zhiruan interjected, waving his luxurious feathered robe while leisurely adjusting the pearls and gems on his cuffs, “Clan Leader, time waits for no one. We are not here to watch you quarrel with a young girl! These demands are not excessive!”

Clearly, this young man held a high status within the group. At his words, many envoys behind him echoed in support, “Exactly, just two Magic Artifacts; anything less would really seem too stingy!”

“…” Taking a deep breath, the Clan Leader turned with a darkened face and commanded, “Give Su Miss the key to the treasury, and have the eldest Miss come out to apologize!”

His voice was heavy with the last two words, clearly very dissatisfied. Yet, with matters at this stage and the Rabbit Clan already being the lowest in the Demon Clan hierarchy, further delaying the envoys could lead to their annihilation.

Su Zhiruan nodded in satisfaction, taking the box a servant brought to her and retrieved the key to the treasury.

She was a modern person, and this was her first time in the Cultivation World. The original owner’s spells were weak, and her true form was a rabbit. Without the protection of magical artifacts, she might have ended up like the original plot, quickly eaten.

This feeling of being without power was uncomfortable. Once Su Zhiruan opened the treasury, she let the system help her choose.

“[Host, that Instant Compass to your right looks pretty good, take it, take it!]”
“And this box at your feet, it seems to be filled with talismans! They’re quite powerful and there’s a wide variety. Take them all!”

Upon hearing this, Su Zhiruan picked up everything, and thought to herself, “You seem to know a lot.”

“…You will know a lot too, in time, host.”

“Ah right, there seems to be a Space Ring in the corner! Pick it up quickly!”

Following its instructions, Su Zhiruan picked up the dusty ring from the ground.

“For now, don’t let the ring bond to you, others may not know what this ring is for.”

“So, you’re saying I can take the ring without them noticing?”

“Right.”

Su Zhiruan nodded, indicating she understood.

She had just mentioned taking two Magic Artifacts, and taking more would be embarrassing if discovered, so she placed the ring in the secret pocket at the cuff of her sleeve, and walked out of the treasure vault carrying the Compass and a box of talismans.

When the Rabbit Clan Leader saw what she was holding, his heart skipped a beat and he began to feel the ache a moment later.

On the other hand, the young man in feathered clothing who had just spoken to Su Zhiruan covered his mouth and chuckled, adding fuel to fire in a mood to watch the drama unfold, “Alright, next up is the Clan Leader’s daughter’s apology!”

The Clan Leader’s daughter, who had just shoved what she thought was a meek Su Zhiruan, was now forcibly brought over by the servants to apologize to Su Zhiruan in front of everyone.

Her face flushed red and her eyes widened as she looked at the Clan Leader, struggling to break free from the servants’ grasp, “Father!! Why should I apologize to her! On what grounds!”

“Silence!” The Clan Leader, who usually doted on her, quickly rebuked her, his expression grave, “Apologize to Miss Su!”

“Father!!” The Clan Leader’s daughter was looking at Su Zhiruan now, unable to believe that the easy target she had just bullied was holding the treasures from their vault, even the Compass she had long coveted, and was now forcing an apology from her, “Su Zhiruan! Did you bewitch them with a potion! Why should I apologize to you! Who do you think you are!”

“Enough! Apologize!” the Clan Leader rebuked again.

This time, the Clan Leader’s daughter’s eyes reddened, and she continued to struggle fiercely.

Su Zhiruan watched her with an amused smile, “Never mind, the young miss has quite the spirit!”

Just as the two heaved a sigh of relief, Su Zhiruan continued with a smile, “In that case, why doesn’t the Clan Leader personally administer twenty beatings with a plank! Spare the rod and spoil the child!”

After she said this, both the Clan Leader and the daughter’s eyes widened in shock, their faces a picture of seeing a ghost!

“What? Did I suggest too few?!” Su Zhiruan was certainly not willing to let things go!
