394 Accountability

Ji Yueyue had never been insulted like this and was about to flare up when she was pulled back by the First Elder. Their expressions were solemn. In just a few decades, they already started to disregard the secret families. Perhaps they had always been too confident, so they ignored one unforeseen event after another! It seemed that the secret families had to unite again.

The crowd suddenly fell silent. Most of them tried their best to reduce their presence, for fear that they would be killed if they acted rashly.

“The royal family is entertaining the Ji family, but why did you guys forget about the Lin family?” Lin Hang’s voice sounded. Then, he walked in with an arrogant expression while wearing fiery red clothes.

“Lin Hang!” The First Elder looked at Lin Hang, who had suddenly appeared, in surprise. They had heard a lot about Lin Hang.

Qiao Yanhui and the others narrowed their eyes at the same time as they looked at Lin Hang with killing intent. If not for Qiao Yanhui, the Ancient Kingdom might be under Lin Hang’s rule now.

“Yo, isn’t this the number one beauty in the world, the Saintess of the Ji family? What’s wrong with your face? It’s so swollen that I can’t see your eyes.” Lin Hang smiled disdainfully. He used to like Ji Yueyue very much. After all, she was good-looking. He wanted to skin her and make her into a drum. When he knocked on the drum, the sound would definitely be very melodious. Unfortunately, she was unwilling to.

When Ji Yueyue heard Lin Hang’s words, her eyes instantly emitted killing intent and fear. After all, no normal person could remain calm when they saw a person skin someone alive. She would never forget how Lin Hang had asked her gently, “Can I skin you?”

Lin Hang was a lunatic and a psychopath!

“Lin Hang, don’t go overboard!” Ji Yueyue gritted her teeth and warned._{𝐟𝗿𝚎𝐞𝓌e𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝒆𝑙.c𝚘𝓶}

“Heh!” Lin Hang sneered in disdain. This woman was no threat to him at all. Her skin was no longer intact, so he didn’t want her anymore. He turned to look at Xu Qing. He really had to get rid of Xu Qing. Otherwise, it would affect his plan. She knew too much.

As Qiao Yanhui stood in front of Xu Qing, he was filled with killing intent and the atmosphere instantly became tense. The ministers couldn’t help but tremble in fear.

Wasn’t today a simple reception banquet? Why was the atmosphere so scary?!

“It’s rare for people from two prominent clans to come. It’s the honor of the Ancient Kingdom!” Ao Jie’s tone was a little derisive, as if he was mocking the secret families for being in disarray and that they were destined to be unable to achieve anything great.

Lin Hang’s expression instantly darkened. “I don’t know if you guys are honored or not, but I’m here today to settle the Lin Clan’s business.”

Ao Jie’s eyes flickered.

“I believe Your Majesty knows that Lin Shu is a person of high status in the Lin family!” Lin Hang said as he dusted his body.

“So what if I know?” Ao Jie finally revealed a hint of coldness. He hated it when others mentioned Lin Shu.

Everyone could tell that Ao Jie was angry. Even Lin Hang could tell and he couldn’t help but be stunned. After all, in his impression, Ao Jie never showed his anger. But so what? “The Ancient Kingdom has no right to punish the higher-ups of the Lin family!”

Lin Hang stared at Ao Jie with condescension.

Ao Jie continued to feed Xue’er grapes with his beautiful fingers.

Qiao Yanhui didn’t take Lin Hang seriously either and discussed what to eat tonight with Xu Qing.

Lin Hang narrowed his eyes and was about to say something when he heard Ao Jie say coldly, “Since she’s a married woman, how can she have a high status? If the Lin family gives a married woman such a high status, people will have to suspect the Lin family’s intentions!” His last sentence made everyone present feel the pressure of an emperor.

Qiao Yanhui raised his eyebrows. Ao Jie was indeed suitable for the throne. As long as Ao Jie returned to normal, he would have nothing to worry about.

Lin Hang didn’t expect Ao Jie to become so eloquent.

Gazing at Ao Jie, Ji Yueyue felt even greedier. At the same time, she mocked Lin Hang for not knowing his place. This psychopath had finally met his match.

“What motive can the Lin family have? We’re just afraid that our clansman will be bullied, so we gave her more power,” Lin Hang replied calmly.

“In that case, you think the Ancient Kingdom is going too far? Then how are you going to explain the matter of the Lin family harming the royal family and killing commoners?” Ao Jie’s tone was cold and he seemed as if he wanted to pursue this matter to the end.
