“Can’t I come?” After a long while, Leng ruoxue finally spoke with a smile that was not a smile. She couldn’t help but think to herself,’it seems like third elder is trying to pick a fight with me. This is the first time I’ve met third elder, so I really don’t know how I’ve offended him.’ If he really did not like her because of Ning Shan ‘er, then she would be disappointed in third elder and nothing else.
“Of course not! Only the acting Master, young master, and elders of the ning family can attend this meeting. No one else is qualified. ” The third elder said very seriously.
“Second elder! Am I really not qualified to attend this meeting?” Leng ruoxue ignored third elder’s words and turned to ask second elder, who was not too far away from her.
“Miss Leng has special privileges in the ning family, so she can naturally attend this meeting.” The second elder glanced at the third elder as he spoke indifferently.
“Second brother! “You ...” The third elder looked at the second elder in dissatisfaction, but he was interrupted before he could finish.
“Third brother! The master said that miss Leng’s words and actions in the ning family represent him, so if miss Leng is interested, you can also participate in the ning family’s elders meeting. All the elders here know this. ” The second elder said helplessly. However, anyone with eyes could tell that his words sounded like a reminder, but they were actually a warning.
“Second brother! I don’t know what the patriarch meant when he said those words, but I heard that you’ve been stripped of your position as an elder by the patriarch. Is that true?” The 3rd elder changed the topic to the 2nd elder. The 2nd elder’s face darkened.
“Not bad! The patriarch dismissed me from my position as an elder. ” The 2nd elder said with an ashen face. He didn’t expect that after so long, the first one to mention this matter would be the 3rd elder. This made him somewhat disappointed. After all, the elders ranked in the top 10 were all brothers who were closer to him by blood. The 3rd elder’s words clearly meant that he was not qualified to participate in the family’s elder conference. How could he not be angry?
“Since that’s the case, third brother and miss Leng, please leave the meeting hall together!” The third elder’s facial features were serious, and his expression did not change.
“Third brother! Don’t forget, I’m still the reverent God of the ning family. ” The second elder couldn’t help but remind him, his face turning from green to black.
“Second brother! You’re one of the only eight Hierarch in the ning family, so we’ll naturally treat you as well as we did before. However, you’re not qualified to participate in this elder’s meeting. After all, you’re no longer an elder of the ning family. If you participate in the elder’s meeting, it’ll definitely make the clan dissatisfied. ” The third elder said with a worried look. Actually, he did not want to treat the second elder this way. However, the second elder was on Leng ruoxue’s side. Since that was the case, then the second elder could not be blamed for not considering their Brotherhood.
“Is there anyone who’s unhappy with me joining the elders Guild?” After hearing the third elder’s words, the second elder glared at the other elders and asked coldly.
When the elders heard the second elder’s question, they all looked at each other, but no one dared to speak. F * ck! Who would dare to say that they were dissatisfied? With the second elder’s temper, whoever said that would die! At this moment, even the elders who were under the 3rd elder didn’t dare to say a word, afraid that they would become a tool for the 2nd elder to vent his anger. The second elder might still care about the third elder’s friendship, but he would not show any mercy to them. Therefore, no matter how the third elder winked at them, asking them to be cannon fodder, they all lowered their heads and pretended not to see it.
Seeing this, the third elder was so angry that his heart was burning with anger. The second elder was obviously much calmer, and he leisurely drank the tea in his hand.
“It seems like no one is unhappy with second elder’s attendance at the elder Council.” After a long while, Leng ruoxue said with a faint smile. At this moment, the entire Assembly Hall was so quiet that one could even hear a pin drop on the ground. When they heard her say this, the entire Assembly Hall was even more silent.
“Who says no one is dissatisfied? They’re just not in a good position to say it out of respect for the second elder. ” The third elder said through gritted teeth.
“Oh! The other elders are too embarrassed to say it in front of the second elder, but the third elder doesn’t seem to have this Gu che. Look at how you’re jumping up and down, so happily!” Leng ruoxue said with a smile.
“You ...” Third elder was so infuriated by Leng ruoxue’s words that his face turned white. His entire body trembled as he pointed at Leng ruoxue, unable to complete his sentence even after a long time.
Upon seeing this, many of the elders could not help but look at Leng ruoxue with admiration. This was their idol! Of the three great elders of the ning family, other than the great elder who had yet to return, the other two could be considered to have fought with Leng ruoxue. The second elder had suffered a crushing defeat and had become Leng ruoxue’s bodyguard. As for the third elder, he probably would not have a good ending either. Leng ruoxue had the ability to anger people to death! The seventh elder and the rest agreed with this point. Hence, no matter what they thought of Leng ruoxue, they would stand firmly on her side. After all, it was very important to choose a side!
“I what? Third elder, although I’m not a true member of the ning family, many of the ning family’s clansmen know that Godfather has given me certain privileges in the ning family. So, as long as I want to participate in this elder’s meeting, no one can stop me. ” Leng ruoxue laughed coldly as she pointed out the truth once again.
“Words are not proof! I wasn’t there at the time, so who knows what the master meant? maybe you misunderstood!” After calming down, the third elder retorted.
“Third elder’s words make sense! However, take a look at what this is. ” After Leng ruoxue finished speaking, she took out a token from her bracelet. The moment the token appeared, all the elders in the meeting hall could not help but stand up and bow respectfully to Leng ruoxue. Their expressions became nervous.
This token was the identity token of the ning family’s master. Although she had used it for a while, she had returned it to her Godfather later. The reason why this token had returned to her hands this time was because Godfather was afraid that someone in the ning family would cause trouble for her, so he had lent it to her again.
Seeing the token was akin to seeing the family head. Hence, all the elders had to bow to Leng ruoxue after seeing the token. Even the third elder, who was unwilling, did the same. Otherwise, it would be considered disrespectful to the family head. No Clansman could tolerate disrespect to the master. After all, the master of the ning family was the ancestor and the backbone of the ning family! At the same time, he was also the idol of the ning family’s thousands of clansmen. No Clansman would allow their idol to be blasphemed, or they would be the sinners of the ning family.
