C442 A Heart of Pill
Outsiders?
Sui Guan felt a sharp pain in his heart. He couldn't help but recall the Immortal Domains that he had used to live in the Immortal Domain. In fact, both of them were the same kind of people!
But very quickly, he pulled himself together again. He looked at the guy who was righteously saying that he was an outsider and said with an expressionless face,
"I am indeed an outsider, but as a friend of Miss Mu Rong, I can't ignore what you have done."
The man didn't show any fear towards Sui Guan's words. Instead, he spoke aggressively.
"The people of Murong Family have violated the will of the Ancient Martial Family. Naturally, they should be punished. Besides, they said that the resources they have were provided by the Ancient Martial World. So, they naturally have to return the resources to us."
After hearing what this guy said, Sui Guan didn't get angry. Instead, he smiled.
This was clearly a mistake made by a few people, but this group of high and mighty people actually wanted the entire Murong Family to atone for their mistakes.
And they even thought in a dignified manner that this was the rule of the Ancient Martial World.
Although there were no rules and regulations, the law was nothing more than a favor.
All rules and regulations should include the ways of the world. If one transcended, this would not be a rule but a trial.
With this thought in mind, Sui Guan sneered.
"Haha, Murong Hee's own mistakes have already been punished. But even so, all of you are still holding back. I don't think it's a rule to follow. "Hehe. It's better to say that all of you are harboring evil intentions."
Upon hearing Sui Guan's words, many of the big shots present couldn't sit still any longer. All of them glared at Sui Guan.
This guy knew what he was doing. Why did he say it out loud? Wasn't he clearly trying to tear the table down and slap his face?!
In the face of these angry eyes that had surrendered to him, Sui Guan simply ignored them.
Although there were unspoken rules in all walks of life, he was very sorry. Since Sui Guan had encountered this matter today, he had to take care of it until the end.
As Murong Piaoxue's only trustworthy friend and the fact that the Murong Family was in trouble, he had a certain relationship with Sui Guan. Therefore, he would never stand idly by.
"Currently, Murong Hee is atoning for his crimes in the prison. The rest of them have never involved themselves in his plan. Furthermore, all of you are from the Ancient Martial Family. It would be convenient for you to lower your head and not see each other."
He said with a deep meaning in his words. Then, he looked at the few Family Master from the Ancient Martial Family.
When these people were scanned by his eyes, they immediately became alert. They could hear the implied meaning of Sui Guan's words.
One should know that Sui Guan still had the evidence that these people had colluded with Murong Hee. If he revealed it at this moment, it would definitely cause a huge commotion in Ancient Martial World.
If that was the case, wouldn't today be their tomorrow?
In an instant, these people felt their scalps go numb. They lowered their heads freely and no longer expressed their opinions.
However, when they compromised, they would not bring others along to compromise.
In the face of the calm and composed Sui Guan, the person in charge of Wang Family was still as stoic as before. He said:
"It's a mistake, it's a mistake. As a Family Master, Murong Hee represented the entire Murong Family. As such, a large part of the reason why he made a mistake was because of the lack of supervision from the rest of the Murong Family. "
Damn, this kid has a sharp tongue!
Seeing the person in charge of the Wang Family making such a solemn vow, Sui Guan couldn't help but curse in his heart.
In fact, what the other party said was very important, making him unable to refute for a moment.
After a while, they exchanged glances. "Even so, don't you feel that your actions are a little overdone?"
"Overly correcting is better than making mistakes again and again. Since the Murong Family can produce a Murong Hee... "Then who knows if there will be anyone else!"
The person in charge of the Wang Family had a glib tongue. For a moment, he attracted countless cheers from the crowd, causing Sui Guan to cry out in pain.
Judging from the current situation, it seemed like the only way to resolve this dispute was by fighting.
With this thought in mind, Sui Guan didn't want to waste any more time talking nonsense. Since he couldn't get through to the other party, he could only rely on fighting to solve the problem. Anyway, as a man, he would try his best to fight less.
Seeing Sui Guan's expression and actions, Murong Long knew that this matter was going to be terrible.
They had come today to talk and reason, not to fight.
Murong Family's reputation had already been ruined. If Sui Guan really wanted to make a big scene here for her, it would be a disaster for them. What would the rest of the people think of the Murong Family?
In an instant, Murong Piaoxue's mind began to spin rapidly. Finally, she stood up and quickly ran to the side of her senses, stopping the other party from moving.
Seeing her looking at him worriedly, Sui Guan comforted her. "Piaoxue, don't worry. I will settle this matter."
Unexpectedly, Murong Piaoxue shook her head and turned to look at the person in charge of Wang Family. She said slowly,
"I admit that the Murong Family can't be excluded from Murong Hee's matter. I don't ask for any mercy from my uncles. I beg the Murong Family to be treated fairly."
Her fair treatment involved many aspects, and none of the people present couldn't hear what she was implying.
Hearing this, the person in charge of Wang Family snorted heavily. "Hmph, you mean to say that the rules of our Ancient Martial World are unfair?"
Murong Piaoxue shook her head. "I don't mean that. It's because..."
Before she could finish, the big shot, who thought he had a high position, acted as a peacemaker.
"Alright, let's put this matter aside. Since the chief evil Murong Hee has already been executed, there's no need for us to make things difficult for a group of old, weak, women and children. After all, everyone was once under the same roof, so there's no need to be so resolute in this matter."
When the person in charge of Wang Family heard this, he was shocked. "Elder Chen, you..."
He vaguely remembered that the development of the matter did not seem to be arranged like this.
At that time, wasn't it time for everyone to sit in a row and divide up Guo Guo from the Murong Family? Then what was going on right now?
Seeing this, Elder Chen glared at the person in charge of the Wang Family, signaling him to shut up.
After that, he moved to Sui Guan and Murong Piaoxue's side.
"Uncle Chen, thank you."
At this moment, Murong Piaoxue looked at him gratefully. She was very grateful for Elder Chen's help just now.
Sui Guan sighed helplessly when he saw Murong Piaoxue regain her former elegance.
This little girl, the reason why she stood out just now... That was definitely another scheme!
Indeed, Sui Guan's prediction was right.
The reason Elder Chen came out to control the situation was because he saw the intimate relationship between Sui Guan and Murong Piaoxue. If he continued to be aggressive, it might backfire and affect the overall situation.
"Sui, before you came, we actually had a consensus that you will be elected as the leader of Ancient Martial Family."
Upon hearing this, Sui Guan forcefully suppressed the excitement in his heart. He raised his head and looked at Elder Chen. He felt that Elder Chen had a different motive.
Sure enough, what he said next confirmed his guess.2
"Of course. Since you are the leader, how can we not benefit from you?" Elder Chen looked at Sui Guan with a smile.
Sui Guan felt shameless and asked quietly, "What do you mean by benefits?"
Elder Chen did not continue to keep him in suspense. He directly pointed a finger at Sui Guan.
"What do you mean?" Sui Guan didn't understand.
Elder Chen shook his head. He said, "One billion in cash."
Sui Guan frowned when he heard that. One billion was not a small amount to him.
Moreover, this was only in cash. A billionaire in China who could take out one billion in cash was like a phoenix feather or a qilin horn.
Even though there were many billionaires in China with a net worth of ten billion, most of those assets were real estate. One billion in cash was not a small problem for anyone.
Elder Chen saw Sui Guan frown slightly and quickly tried to persuade him, "Sui, ah! What else is there to consider? As long as you lead the Ancient Martial Family... What else can't you do?"
"Elder Chen, I think you have misunderstood me. I want to lead the Ancient Martial Family, not because I want to gain some benefits from it, but because I want you all to get out of this predicament!"
Sui Guan's powerful reply immediately made everyone blush with shame.
