She had yet to make the necessary arrangements on this matter, but the matter had already been pointed out by a legendary figure from the Human race at the meeting. She was, without a doubt, placed in an extremely disadvantageous position.
Jiang Xiaorou remained silent. At this moment, what else could she say?
She could sense that every human present gave her a gaze that resembled a needle.
When their lives were at stake, people found it difficult to accept perishing en masse in order to save a young girl's life.
"You said that I'm ignoring the principles of caring for my race?" The former Desolate Queen sneered while standing up. "I might as well tell all of you that the Black-armored Demon God is indeed eyeing Xiaorou, and I have already guessed the reason."
When Jiang Xiaorou was locked onto by the Black-armored Demon God, Jiang Xiaorou's mother had already thought of the reason. The world was so large, filled with numerous geniuses. Why would the Black-armored Demon God eye Jiang Xiaorou?
The only possibility was that it had to do with Jiang Xiaorou's father.
Jiang Xiaorou's father, who came from the 12 Empyrean Heavens, was not an ordinary mortal. The child he left behind might have something that the Black-armored Demon God needed!
However, the former Desolate Queen would not explain these things. If Jiang Xiaorou's father was mentioned, then there would be even more people who would plot against Jiang Xiaorou.
"Have you not thought that capturing Xiaorou would necessarily be helpful for the Black-armored Demon God? Not long after, the Black-armored Demon God will return once again, and when that happens, the Black-armored Demon God would be even more powerful than now! Handing my daughter over to him will lead to disastrous consequences!"
The former Desolate Queen may love Jiang Xiaorou, but she was the Desolate Queen after all. She could not simply sacrifice her Desolate race just for Jiang Xiaorou. She had her own reasons.
"What your Highness says makes sense, but… forgive me if I'm being straight. Even if what your Highness suggests is true, we actually also have other means of avoiding this scenario… "
A legendary human figure said and looked with a strange gaze at Jiang Xiaorou.
This gaze came with a hint of malice and pity. He did not finish his sentence, but the meaning from his words was very clear.
His words implied destroying Jiang Xiaorou completely!
If the Black-armored Demon God would become stronger after obtaining Jiang Xiaorou, then wouldn't destroying Jiang Xiaorou prevent that possibility?
On the brink of life and death, to carry on surviving, killing a talented young girl to prevent a inferred possibility was not a difficult choice.
After all, the entire Tian Yuan world already had so many ruined family clans, with numerous people dead. What was one more?
Of course, the decision lay in the hands of the Desolate race.
Many of the Human race experts looked at Jiang Xiaorou indifferently. They were waiting for the former Desolate Queen's decision.
They knew that this was a difficult decision, but with the survival of their race in question, it would force the former Desolate Queen to make a decision.
Pressure!
Even though she had encountered all sorts of situations and she had been ruling over the Desolate race for many years, the former Desolate Queen felt immense pressure at the moment.
She could ignore the Human race, but for the people of her Desolate race…
"Your Highness, I, Qing Kui, am willing to follow your Highness to die in battle!"
The Shepherd Boy was the first to speak with a resolute voice. No one doubted that he would die for the Desolate race and Jiang Xiaorou without any hesitation.
However… Qing Kui was not everyone in the Desolate race.
Even if all of them did the same, the former Desolate Queen would not let the entirety of her people perish for Xiaorou.
They had the right to live on. They were not born for the royal family, nor were they meant to die for the royal family.
"Your Highness, why don't we end it here today… "
At this moment, the Sanctuary Island couple stood up. "We cannot interfere in your esteemed race's internal matters. However, since your esteemed race's Sacred Spirit is unable to fight, then even if those remaining were to fight to the death, the chances of victory are slim. Hence, I wish your esteemed race will weigh the consequences. Of course, I wish that your esteemed race will have a better choice."
The Sanctuary couple looked at Jiang Xiaorou with complicated expressions. They stopped speaking and finally only shook their heads.
They felt very sorry for this beautiful, young girl.
