Bab 474: Chapter 474: Flogging

The phoenix-masked woman was instantly furious.

"You! What are you saying! You dare accuse me without proof?" the phoenix-masked woman hissed, her voice laced with venomous indignation.

"You, a mere newcomer, dare to challenge me, the first candidate of the goddess?"

Yu Holea's expression remained composed, her eyes steady as she met the phoenix-masked woman's furious gaze.

"I speak from intuition and observation," she replied evenly.

"Actions speak louder than words, and yours have not gone unnoticed."

The phoenix-masked woman scoffed, her confidence wavering slightly under Yu Holea's unwavering gaze.

"Intuition and observation are not proof," she retorted sharply.

"Accusing me based on such flimsy grounds shows your ignorance and arrogance."

Yu Holea's lips curved into a faint smile, a gesture that seemed to irk the phoenix-masked woman even more.

"I have no need for arrogance," she replied calmly.
