Chapter 2647 The Picky Golden Eagle (1)
Unfortunately, at this moment, neither Leng ruoxue nor the mother parasol tree cared about Leng Xiaoxiao"s thoughts. The mother parasol tree was eager for the situation to be as lively and chaotic as possible, but Leng ruoxue did not care.
The few of them quickly left the Leng family"s main residence. As soon as they stepped out of the main gate, they happened to see many forces "representatives blocking the Leng family"s main residence"s entrance, shouting something loudly.
The moment they saw Leng ruoxue, the entire place fell into a momentary silence. After a few minutes, everyone finally reacted. Someone even started to stir things up,"Quickly hand Leng ruoxue over. We"ll be safe once we hand her over!"
His words quickly drew a response from many people, and the scene became chaotic. Leng Xiaoqing, who was originally maintaining order, heard his words and his face turned black immediately! "You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" These people were really too lawless. In front of him, the ancestor of the Leng family, they were clamoring to hand over the Leng family. Wasn"t this a slap to his face?
Leng Xiaoqing was furious, but he was even angrier that Leng Xiaoxiao had failed to persuade that willful girl, Leng ruoxue, to go into hiding. He had even brought her out. Wasn"t this making her a living target?
He glared at Leng Xiaoxiao angrily, and his eyes seemed to be blaming him for not doing a good job. Leng Xiaoxiao looked at his elder brother with an aggrieved expression and did not argue.
After glaring at Leng Xiaoxiao, Leng Xiaoqing turned her gaze to the person who had spoken earlier. She was about to scold him when an even angrier voice suddenly came from behind her,""Who has the guts to hand over my master?"
The ones who let out this roar were Luo Lin and the others who had arrived after them. Initially, when they heard that Sun Tao had arrived, they wanted to immediately look for Leng ruoxue. Who knew that their master had already left the falling snow garden? when they heard that, they immediately chased after her and happened to witness the scene just now!
Even though Leng ruoxue and the parasol tree mother tree did not have much of a reaction to the scene before their eyes, when Luo Lin and the rest heard someone suggesting to hand their master over to Sun Tao, their anger instantly surged. The head butler of Wanshan city was one step ahead and grabbed the collar of the instigator, loudly questioning,""Are you the one who wants to hand over my master?"
"No, it"s not just my idea. This is everyone"s idea. You"d better follow the public"s opinion. This is good for you and US!" The person being held by the head butler of Wanshan city was a middle-aged man. At this moment, his face had already turned pale from the fear of the fiendish head butler, and he was even stuttering a little. However, as soon as he thought of Sun Tao and the others outside the city, he still mustered up his courage to express his thoughts.
He felt that he wasn"t only doing this for himself, but for everyone"s benefit. Hence, everyone should be grateful to him for taking the lead to make such a request. One should know that the law couldn"t punish the ma.s.ses. If this was everyone"s intention, then Leng ruoxue would have no choice but to comply.
But would Leng ruoxue do what he had imagined? The answer was no.
When the myriad Mountain city"s head butler heard the other party"s words, he snorted and roared,""Bulls.h.i.+t! What do you mean by everyone"s intention? this was clearly your own idea, and you actually pushed the responsibility onto everyone. What kind of heart do you have? At a time like this, instead of thinking about how everyone should work together to deal with Sun Tao, you"re instigating internal strife among us. Speak! Are you a spy sent by Sun Tao?"
"I, I"m not! Don"t wrong me!" The middle-aged man was furious. In a short moment, his pale face turned red. It was obvious how angry he was.
It must be known that in the middle-aged man"s mind, instigating was one thing, but he definitely couldn"t let the other party Pin the blame of Sun Tao"s traitor on his head. If everyone suspected him like that, even if Sun Tao didn"t attack him, these people wouldn"t let him off. So for the sake of his life, he couldn"t be wronged like that no matter what.
However, after many years of experience, the head butler of the Wanshan city was no longer the kind Bandit he was in the past. The current him had the aura of a superior. Seeing that the other party seemed to want to put up a last-ditch struggle, he coldly laughed and said,"Wrongly accused you? Do I need to do that?"
"Of course there is. You are Leng ruoxue"s subordinate. Because I suggested for everyone to hand Leng ruoxue over, you bore a grudge against me." The middle-aged man quibbled.
"Alright! I hate you so much, so shouldn"t I just kill you now? Who asked you to incite everyone to hand over my master! AI! I have no choice!" Wanshan city"s head butler said with a face full of evil intent. His cold eyes swept across the others. These fence sitters, he really hoped that Sun Tao could get rid of them all. Otherwise, helping them might just turn out to be a bunch of ungrateful wolves!
"You, you ..." The middle-aged man was so angry that he couldn"t speak. After taking a few deep breaths, he turned his head to the people behind him and continued to incite,""You guys heard it. Because I suggested that we hand over his master, not only did he accuse me, he even wanted to cut me off. Sob ... You guys have to do me justice! Who did I do it for? It was all for everyone"s safety! For the safety of the entire Haotian continent!"
The middle-aged man"s words were sincere and earnest. Those who had the same thoughts as him secretly nodded. However, some people sneered at his words and suggestions.
"You put everyone"s safety and the safety of Haotian continent on the basis of sacrificing a woman. You call this for everyone"s good? You"re a disgrace to all men. " The LAN clan"s old ancestor was the first to speak in disdain. After he finished speaking, he even nodded towards Leng ruoxue, indicating that he was on her side.
Naturally, Leng ruoxue returned him a smile to show that she appreciated his kindness.
LAN lie saw that his ancestor had stood up for him, so he naturally agreed,""That"s right, are you even worthy of being a man? What did your parents teach you? You"re always thinking of sacrificing others when you"re in danger. No wonder your family is still a small, unranked family. With your thoughts, your family will never be able to become strong. I truly feel sorry for your clansmen. How could they have a clan head like you? "You sacrificed a weak woman when you encountered danger today, but what about next time? If there"s any more danger, are you going to sacrifice your family?"
LAN lie"s words were malicious and seemed to be trying to sow discord. The middle-aged man"s family members listened to LAN lie"s words and thought about it carefully. After all, this kind of thing could happen in the future. They knew better than anyone else what kind of person their master was.
He was a timid person. To say that he was a spy planted by Sun Tao was indeed an injustice. Their family head did not have the brains to think of submitting to Sun Tao. Furthermore, their family"s strength was too low. Sun Tao might not even be interested in them.
And now, in order to protect himself, the family head had obviously offended those who were close to Leng ruoxue. As such, some of the more flexible-minded people were thinking about whether they should unite with the family head or go against him.
These people were very conflicted. This was because Sun Tao"s strength was obvious, while Leng ruoxue"s strength was like a flower in the water or the moon in the mirror. No one could figure it out. Therefore, they didn"t know what to do for a while.
