After hearing Chen Ming's impassioned words, both Bo Saixi and Xiao Bai froze, at a loss for what to say.
Bo Saixi turned to glance at Xiao Bai, while Xiao Bai, who had been so worked up she wanted to kill someone, now wore a complicated expression.
Xiao Bai, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, knew perfectly well that her clansmen were a little arrogant.
After all, with a backer as powerful as the Sea God, even she was outrageously arrogant. With the cultivation of a mere hundred-thousand-year soul beast, she practically swaggered wherever she pleased across the ocean. Even a six-hundred-thousand-year ferocious beast like the Sea Princess treated her with great respect, welcoming her as an honored guest.
She had indeed warned her clansmen before not to get too arrogant. Otherwise, if they provoked someone they could not afford to offend, even she would be powerless to do anything. But she had never really come down hard on them, and her younger brother and the other clansmen had not listened. They still did whatever they pleased.
Occasionally, Xiao Bai also received complaints from the spirit masters on Sea God Island, saying that members of the Demon Soul Great White Shark Clan had taken advantage of them again, that another group of Demon Soul Great White Sharks had eaten their spoils, or that they had blocked their way and demanded some benefits.
Xiao Bai had reprimanded her younger brother and the leaders of these Demon Soul Great White Sharks several times, but that was all she had done. She had never hardened her heart enough to impose any meaningful punishment.
As for the accusation that these fellows had been robbing travelers... Xiao Bai genuinely could not find anything to dispute.
After all, they had far too many prior offenses.
