Bi Ji looked into Snow Empress's ice-blue eyes, which seemed capable of seeing through everything, and alarm bells rang in her heart.
Without drawing attention, she pulled Jiang Li'er a little farther behind her, maintaining a gentle expression, though her voice carried a trace of barely perceptible tension.

This was too astonishing! For ferocious beasts,
