Hence, during this period of time, the Master of the Murong family was in a towering rage. He had decided to send powerful cultivators to destroy those people and vent his anger on his precious granddaughter's behalf!
"This matter has always been the Lin family's fault." The Governor's eyes stared calmly at the crowd as he spoke in a dignified and cold voice, "If the Lin family had not made so many mistakes, how could things have turned out this way? Don't think that I'm unaware of the Lin family's actions over the years. They think that they can hide from me just because they haven't sent the Lin family's most powerful cultivators! "
Elder Wen shuddered and hurriedly lowered his head.
After all, he had been the one who had indulged the Lin family all these years. That was why the Lin family had the audacity to send powerful cultivators to hunt down the people of the secular world.
"I can let bygones be bygones but you're not allowed to make the same mistake in the future. As for the Lin family's matter, let it end here. No one is allowed to entangle themselves in this matter!" The Governor spoke calmly before he turned towards the ugly look on Elder Murong's face. "I know that your granddaughter has been hurt and you're upset but no matter how upset you are, you must endure it. This matter has always been the Lin family's fault. If word of this gets out, people will think that the Governor's Palace of the First City is taking advantage of our power to bully others!"
If the members of the Secret Order had not allowed him to reveal Dongfang Yu's identity, he would not have needed to use the Lin family's mistake to warn them! If they continue to deal with Grand Lord Hong Lian and Dongfang Yu, they would attract the Secret Order's wrath.
The Secret Order is so powerful that even the Governor's Palace of the First City has to be courteous to them.
Besides, Dongfang Yu was the Sacred Lady of the Secret Order...
"Governor, does this mean that the Murong family members had died in vain?"
Elder Murong scoffed, clearly dissatisfied with the Governor's decision.
The Governor furrowed his brows and glared at him coldly, "Murong Yang, I'm sure that you know the Murong family's actions better than anyone else. Hence, I advise you to keep your granddaughter in check. If she offends someone she shouldn't, I won't protect you."
Murong Yang's elderly face was an ugly sight to behold. He scoffed but did not refute the Governor's words. However, his heart was filled with resentment and he could not vent it no matter what.
"Grand Lord Hong Lian, Dongfang Yu, their daughter and Qianbei Ye..."
Murong Yang sighed in his heart when he thought of these names. He said fiercely, "I won't let them go!"
Even though he had said this in his heart, the Governor could read his thoughts from his face. He could not help but laugh icily. It seems that it's time for me to find something for the Murong family to do. Otherwise, this old man would never let Dongfang Yu off so easily.
"The meeting is adjourned."
The City Lord stood up and looked coldly at the crowd.
"The position of the Great Protector Families was given to you by this City Lord. That's why you were able to get it! If you continue to make mistakes, then it's time for the Guardian Families to be replaced. "
After saying this, he waved his sleeves and left without looking back.
Murong Yang took a deep breath and turned towards Elder Wen, who was next to him, and asked, "Can you bear with this grievance?"
Elder Wen's eyes flickered as a sharp light flashed through them. Suddenly, he laughed, his laughter was filled with a dense killing intent.
"Endure? How could I possibly endure this? If Grand Lord Hong Lian does not die, the Wen family will perish by his hand sooner or later. Hence, I must kill him! "
