Xia Miao and Xia Xiong exchanged a glance, both utterly bewildered.
How were they supposed to explain this to Xia Chujian when she came back? Both of them felt deeply guilty.
At the same time, they were terrified.
To be fair, Xia Chujian's protection of her family had already reached the utmost extreme.
Just imagine, in the entire Beichen Empire, what family could afford to have two Rank 3S Gene Evolvers protecting their relatives? Not even the Four Great Noble Families were that extravagant! Even the Imperial Family probably only gave the emperor himself such treatment!
