Chapter 2296 Leng Xiaoyu’s Question (2)
"What you mean is that we only need to state which side we're on and we don't need to deal with Leng ruoxue?" Jiang Ning asked.
"That's what I meant. Of course, if there are any righteous people who are willing to help the divine realm get rid of evil, we will also welcome them. However, before that, I need to know everyone's attitude. Only then can I better formulate the next plan. " The head of the Yao clan continued.
"Since you don't need our Alchemist Guild headquarters to deal with Leng ruoxue, I'll remain neutral. I'll sell the pills to both parties and I'll guarantee that the price will be the same. I won't be biased towards either party. How about it?" Jiang Ning said with a smile.
Hearing this, the head of the Yao family almost vomited blood!
F * ck! What did Jiangning mean? He even wanted to sell them pills? The war between them and Leng ruoxue had become a great opportunity for Jiangning to accumulate wealth! The head of the Yao family was extremely depressed. However, the other party was Jiang Ning, the Vice President of The Alchemist Guild headquarters. So, even though he was filled with hatred, he didn't dare to speak rudely. Otherwise, if they really offended Jiangning, the Yao family would definitely be the one in trouble.
But what made the head of the Yao family even angrier was yet to come!
As soon as Jiang Ning expressed his thoughts, a few other forces quickly expressed that they would remain neutral. Furthermore, they were afraid that they would anger the head of the Yao family and be put in a difficult position. Therefore, after these forces expressed their opinions, they immediately chose to leave. They didn't even give the head of the Yao family a chance to stay and disappeared.
This scene made the head of the Yao family so angry that his liver hurt. However, it was fortunate that most of the power was still there, so he felt a little comforted.
Seeing that Jiangning's path was no longer feasible, the head of the Yao family deliberately asked for the opinion of the craftsmen's Guild.
Although Mo Yan was the leader of the craftsmen's Guild, the head of the Yao family deliberately didn't ask about Mo Yan, but instead asked about the newly appointed second elder.
Although the position of the second elder of the craftsmen's Guild wasn't low in the eyes of others, in the eyes of the Yao family's patriarch, he was somewhat unpresentable. After all, this second elder was not conspicuous enough in the craftsmen's Guild where talents were abundant. If he hadn't become the second elder of the craftsmen's Guild, the Yao family's patriarch would probably not have noticed him!
And now, seeing that the Yao family head had asked for the opinion of his armament Guild headquarters, the second elder instantly felt that he had gained face and could represent the armament Guild. Therefore, just as he was about to say something, Leng Xiaoyu beat him to it,""Yao family head, the leader of our blacksmith Guild headquarters is His Excellency Mo Yan. Instead of asking His Excellency Mo Yan, you asked for the second elder's opinion, are you looking down on His Excellency Mo Yan?"
Leng Xiaoyu's words definitely had the suspicion of sowing discord. Just as the second elder was about to speak up for the Yao family head, he was glared at by Mo Yan. That glare frightened the second elder back from the words he was about to blurt out, so the second elder was well-behaved for the time being.
When the head of the Yao family heard Leng Xiaoyu's provocative words, he smiled and asked,""How should I address you, Sir?"
"Leng Xiaoyu!" Leng Xiaoyu said calmly.
"Leng Xiaoyu? Your surname is also Leng? May I know what is your relationship with Leng ruoxue?" Hearing the name Leng Xiaoyu, the head of the Yao family asked this on purpose.
In reality, he had investigated Leng ruoxue very thoroughly. Naturally, he knew that Leng ruoxue had just come to the immortal realm from the lower realm not long ago, and he was also aware of the relationship between Leng Xiaoyu and Leng ruoxue. However, he pretended to be ignorant and even asked this question on purpose. He wanted to give everyone the feeling that this person was related to Leng ruoxue. This way, even if Leng Xiaoyu did not dare to reveal her identity, everyone would be suspicious of his words. This way, he would naturally achieve his goal.
"Leng ruoxue is my direct descendant." Leng Xiaoyu answered honestly when she heard the Yao family head's question. When the people present heard this answer, they all showed surprise in unison. Then, they turned around and started whispering to the people beside them.
Leng Xiaoyu's answer also caused the head of the Yao family to be slightly taken aback. He really did not expect that under such circumstances, Leng Xiaoyu would still dare to reveal his relationship with Leng ruoxue. Was he not afraid of being attacked by the crowd? What gave him the courage to do so? The head of the Yao family couldn't understand, but at the same time, he couldn't help sighing. Why didn't the Yao family have such a daring descendant?
It was undeniable that if Leng Xiaoyu had not been close to Leng ruoxue, he would have admired this young man. What a pity! They were destined not to be friends. Of course, if Leng Xiaoyu was willing to give up on Leng ruoxue and stand on his side, it would be a different story.
But was that possible?
If Leng Xiaoyu was really on his side, he would be suspicious of her motives.
Sighing, the head of the Yao family said,"I really didn't expect that the armament Guild headquarters would send Leng ruoxue's ancestor here. Sir Mo Yan, does the armament Guild headquarters not know why our Yao family invited all of you?"
"Of course I know." Mo Yan said calmly. He glanced at Leng Xiaoyu and continued,""Leng Xiaoyu is my disciple. Before I came here, I asked him what he would do if Leng ruoxue really did something that would anger the heavens and the people. Xiao Yu personally told me that he would put righteousness before family because he stood on the side of justice. So, what reason do we blacksmiths have to not let him come?"
Mo Yan's words were very sincere, and everyone could not help but secretly nod in agreement. At the same time, they also had a little more admiration for Leng Xiaoyu. After all, there were not many people in this world who were willing to put righteousness before family. Most people would protect their juniors unconditionally. Even if their juniors did something wrong, they would not allow others to criticize them, let alone allow their juniors to be killed by others!
Leng Xiaoyu calmly accepted the attention from the crowd and returned a smile before continuing,""I've heard a little about Xue 'er's matter, and with what you've just said, I finally have a general understanding of it. So, I have a few questions for you to answer, and I hope you can enlighten me."
Then, without giving the head of the Yao family a chance to speak, Leng Xiaoyu started to ask,""First, I want to know where the victim of the God lord's estate's bounty is. They said that because Xue 'er coveted the magical beasts, she had allied with some rebels from the divine realm to attack the magical beasts. Then what about the victims of the magical beasts? There has to be a victim who can explain it, right?"
"The magical beasts have already made a statement. Leng ruoxue is their enemy." The head of the Yao clan said.
"That's right! Leng ruoxue is the common enemy of the beast clan! This is something that everyone knows. " Elder Qin echoed.
"What if I say that the magical beasts were forced to make that declaration due to the God lord's estate's attitude? Since the beasts have made a statement, is there a problem for the victims to come out and explain how Xue 'er attacked them?" Leng Xiaoyu asked again.
"Didn't we already say that the beast clan was attacked by Leng ruoxue? Where are the victims!" The head of the Yao family said matter-of-factly. This time, none of the elders of the dragon-kind and the Phoenix-kind interrupted.
