The person who spoke was the third elder of Lin Xuan's faction. At this moment, he decisively stood out to support Lin Xuan.
In fact, Lin Xuan's expulsion back then was completely a conspiracy. At that time, the patriarch was in seclusion and Lin Xuan's father had disappeared. The first elder took control of the elder group and expelled Lin Xuan, the young master.
After that, although Lin Xuan's faction was furious, they couldn't find any trace of Lin Xuan. Only then did the matter gradually settle down.
Now that Lin Xuan had returned, the clan members behind him naturally wouldn't let the matter rest.
Their cultivation was so high that no one could compare to them except for the patriarch.
"That's enough, Ye 'er." The first elder who had been silent suddenly spoke. "Today is a big day for our Lin family. Don't let these small matters spoil the mood."
"Lin Xuan, your status as a disciple of the Lin family has temporarily been restored. You can participate in the family meeting."
"However, you can only return to the clan if you obtain first place. Otherwise, you will be expelled again. Do you have any objections?" the first elder said indifferently.
"What first place? Lin Xuan clearly didn't do anything wrong. Why should he be expelled!" Second Master Lin was furious.
"Okay, Second Uncle, I agree." Lin Xuan pulled Second Master Lin's sleeve and shook his head slightly.
The current situation was very unfavorable for Lin Xuan's faction. His grandfather was in seclusion and the first elder relied on various methods to control more than half of the Sword Pool Manor.
Moreover, not long ago, the first elder had broken through to the Spirit Transformation Realm. It could be said that he was abnormally powerful.
"Since you are a disciple of the Lin family, you should obey the family rules. You can't deny this, right?" the first elder said indifferently.
"Of course." Lin Xuan nodded.
"According to the family rules, you can't cause trouble and can't kill the innocent!"
"Not only did you repeatedly harm Feng 'er on Levitating Island, but you also used despicable means to kill Meng Yan, an Earth Fire Sect disciple. Do you know your crimes?" the first elder suddenly shouted coldly.
"What? Meng Yan is dead? Lin Xuan killed him? "
Everyone's expression changed as they stared at Lin Xuan.
Who was Meng Yan? He was the number one person on the Hidden Dragon Roll, the target of countless young martial artists.
But now, the idol in their hearts was dead, and he was killed by a disciple of the Lin Family.
If this was not handled properly, a sect war would definitely break out!
If the two top forces were to go to war, the impact would be huge.
Lin Xuan's face darkened. He didn't think that this old thing would play such a trick on him.
He had just admitted that he was a disciple of the Lin Family. As a disciple of the Lin Family, he had to follow the rules of the Lin Family.
Moreover, Meng Yan was indeed killed by him. If he resisted and disobeyed the rules of the clan, then the Grand Elder would have the chance to expel him in front of everyone again!
If that happened, he would really lose the opportunity to enter his family's ancestral land.
Lin Xuan gnashed his teeth in anger. "Old bastard, this move is quite sinister!"
Second Master Lin and the rest were also shocked. He cast a questioning look at Lin Xuan, but when he saw Lin Xuan's expression, he confirmed that this matter had indeed happened.
Otherwise, with Lin Xuan's character, he would definitely deny it at the first moment.
At this moment, the Earth Fire Sect elder suddenly stood up and said with a ferocious expression, "Grand Elder Lin, this brat is Meng Yan's murderer. Grand Elder Lin, please say the word and hand him over to our Earth Fire Sect to be dealt with!"
"No!" Second Master Lin shouted. If they handed him over, they would definitely torture him to death.
"Lin Zheng, the matter is already very clear. Don't tell me you still want to protect this murderer!" Lin Xuan sneered.
"Where's the evidence? You can't just spout nonsense, right?" Third Elder said solemnly.
"Yes, show us the evidence. Otherwise, we won't let you take Lin Xuan away!" Fifth Elder also echoed. Other than that, there were a few other elders who stood on Lin Xuan's side.
The other elders also spoke up for the Grand Elder. From this, it could be seen that the Grand Elder's influence had almost completely infiltrated the Sword Pool Palace. Even the elders under Lin Xuan's faction were speaking up for him.
"You want evidence?" The Grand Elder said in a deep voice, "I'll show you the evidence now."
"No need." Lin Xuan said indifferently.
Everyone was puzzled and looked at Lin Xuan with puzzled eyes.
Even Lin Xuan and the Grand Elder's eyes flashed with doubt.
"I was the one who killed him," Lin Xuan said slowly as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
"What? He really killed him?! "
"Meng Yan is a half-step Harmonious Spirit expert! How could he kill him?! " Everyone exclaimed. The martial artists below started to discuss among themselves. They originally came to watch the Lin Clan's martial arts competition. Who would have thought that such a shocking scene would happen?
"Impossible!" Second Master Lin and the others denied it immediately. They weren't belittling Lin Xuan, but Meng Yan was too outstanding. Half a year ago, even Lin Feng didn't have the confidence to kill Meng Yan, let alone Lin Xuan.
Moreover, they also checked Lin Xuan's cultivation, but they didn't find anything unusual.
Of course, they didn't know that Lin Xuan had a special secret technique that could hide his cultivation. Moreover, the black cloak could also conceal his Qi.
Lin Xuan and the Grand Elder were even more puzzled. They originally wanted to take out some specious evidence and force Lin Xuan to admit his guilt through coercion and intimidation.
As long as Lin Xuan endured it, he would be dead.
However, they didn't expect the process to be so smooth. They didn't even need to prepare the evidence.
"What an idiot!" Lin Xuan was overjoyed.
"Since he has admitted his guilt, then it's easy to handle. Elder Meng, I'll leave him to you. If you want to kill him, do as you see fit. The Sword Lake Palace won't interfere. "The Grand Elder said slowly.
"Wait!" Lin Xuan shouted coldly. "I haven't finished yet. The Grand Elder seems to be impatient!"
"You have admitted your guilt. What else is there to say?!"
"That's right. The Lin Clan doesn't have a trash like you!"
"Trash? I killed the Hidden Dragon Ranking's number one, Meng Yan. How dare you say that I'm trash? " Lin Xuan sneered, "Fourth Elder, please tell me, what is not trash? Is it because you've lived for more than a hundred years and your cultivation is still at the early Harmonious Spirit realm?"
"You, you …" The Fourth Elder was trembling with anger, "Rebel, you're rebelling!"
"Men, take him down!"
"Fourth Elder, I'm afraid it's not your turn to give orders here!" Second Master Lin sneered, "Xuan 'er, tell me everything. Even if the sky falls, I'll support you!"
"Yes, and us old bones. Don't worry, we won't let you go with them."
"Second Uncle, Great Grandfathers, don't worry. I'll explain everything."
Lin Xuan said slowly, "That day, I got something from the Floating Island, but I was surrounded by a group of people, including Meng Yan."
"They wanted to kill me and steal my treasure, but I killed them instead."
"Everyone, please be reasonable. Someone wanted to kill me, can't I fight back?"
The crowd was noisy. After listening to Lin Xuan's explanation, most of them agreed with him.
"What's wrong with killing someone for his treasure?"
"That's right! You were surrounded, can't you fight back?! "Liu Yangwei and the others took the lead.
On the huge platform, Second Master Lin said with a smile, "So it's the disciples of the Earth Fire Sect who wanted to kill me and steal my treasure. Elder Meng, you're so impressive, how dare you bully my nephew!"
"Do you really think there's no one in the Sword Pool Palace?"
"No, no …" Elder Meng panicked when facing the powerful Second Master Lin. After all, this was not his territory.
"Second Master, this is only this kid's side of the story. You can't believe him!" Lin Lin said coldly. "Lin Xuan, I advise you to tell us the truth about the assassination of Meng Yan!"
"I'm telling you the truth. Unfortunately, Lin Feng wasn't there at that time. Otherwise, I would have killed him!" Lin Xuan said coldly.
"How dare you!" Lin Lin was furious.
