Chapter 3429: Xie Yun: I Don’t Object
Editor: Atlas Studios
The Righteousness Hall was dead silent.
No one dared to make a sound.
Who the hell dared to go against Ji Lingfeng!
Second Elder, Fourth Elder, and the remaining hall masters who had not signed their names looked at the two men in black who entered the hall and dragged Fifth Elder’s body out, leaving a wide and long trail of blood on the ground.
Just looking at it caused their hearts to skip a beat.
At this moment, Ji Lingfeng repeated, “My patience is limited.”
It was a simple sentence, but the eyes of everyone in the Righteousness Hall twitched in fear.
Fortunately, Second Elder had seen the world and calmed down shortly. He stood up and met Ji Lingfeng’s murderous gaze. “Patriarch, can you give us some time to discuss?”
Ji Lingfeng narrowed his eyes. He neither agreed nor disagreed.
Second Elder remained calm under his substantive gaze and said reasonably, “We didn’t plan to agree to Qiao Nian taking over the Ji family previously. Now that we have to consider it, you should at least give us time to discuss it.”
Ji Lingfeng was still unmoved. “Time is limited, Second Elder.”
Second Elder knew it wouldn’t be so easy to convince him. He threw out his trump card and looked at him sincerely. “Patriarch, you don’t want to give Qiao Nian an incomplete Ji family, right? We just need some time to discuss…”
Ji Lingfeng’s eagle-like eyes scrutinized his face.
Second Elder did not move, afraid that if he made a small mistake, he would end up like Fifth Elder.
Fortunately, his last sentence did move Ji Lingfeng.
When he was about to collapse, Ji Lingfeng retracted his gaze and stood up. “I’ll give you an hour.”
One hour…
The saber hanging above everyone’s heads did not fall for the time being. Everyone secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Ji Lingfeng stayed with them for the entire night and the entire morning. His complexion was bad, and his face and lips were pale.
But he was unyielding and did not show any discomfort.
However, when it was time to take his medicine, he said to the people in the Righteousness Hall, “I’ll come over in an hour. I hope you’ve thought it through by then.”
Everyone was glad that Ji Lingfeng was willing to give them an hour to catch their breath.
Only Xie Yun looked in his direction differently. Seeing his painful frown, she silently looked away.
…
Ji Lingfeng went out.
The strong compulsion that had been hanging above the Righteousness Hall finally disappeared.
Second Elder seized the time and immediately looked at the only person who could change the situation. “Madam, what do you think about the Patriarch handing the Ji family over to Qiao Nian?”
He was a smart person.
After all, according to the rules, the Ji family should be handed over to Ji Lingfeng’s only son, Ji Nan, to inherit in the future. Ji Lingfeng’s sudden decision to give the entire Ji family to Qiao Nian undoubtedly ate into Ji Nan’s share of the pie.
With Xie Yun’s character, she couldn’t agree so easily.
As long as Xie Yun was willing to help them stall for time, based on Xie Yun and Ji Lingfeng’s decades of relationship as husband and wife, the Patriarch would definitely not deal with them as he did with Fifth Elder.
His goal was to stall.
They could drag it out until their people on the outside couldn’t wait any longer and broke in. That way, the situation could be reversed! They could also have more control.
Second Elder’s expression and tone were anxious.
Xie Yun calmly drank a cup of tea. She lowered her eyes and did not show any emotions.
Her reply was unexpected. “I don’t object.”
Second Elder was stunned.
If Xie Yun didn’t object, did that not mean she agreed?
