Let him go.
Plop.
The moment Ye Zichen said that, Zuo Hongxin and his daughter, who were captured by the guest chamberlains, fell limply onto the ground.
Die …
Am I going to die?
"Big Brother, I was confused for a moment. I hope you can forgive me this time for the sake of our brotherhood."
Subconsciously, Zuo Hongxin crawled in front of Zuo Hongde and grabbed his calf.
Half of his body was already like dirt, but right now, he was kowtowing and begging with tears and snot running down his face.
Even though Ye Zichen was only giving his opinion, Zuo Hongde was the one who had the final say. However, he knew full well that in this situation, Ye Zichen's words had already sealed their fates.
"Little brother knows his wrongs. Little brother really knows his wrongs."
The surrounding guests couldn't help but shake their heads at Xia Keke's heart-wrenching cries.
"Now you know you're wrong. When I saw you colluding with that bad guy just now, I thought you were pretty arrogant. She even said that Zuo Mo colluded with outsiders to covet your Zuo family's assets. Pfft. "
Xia Keke had always been a person who hated evil. Back then, when she was watching from the guest seats, she couldn't help but get angry. When Zuo Mo was at her most helpless, she tried to help her several times, but Xiao Yumei stopped her every time.
Now that good will be rewarded, evil will be repaid with evil, this guy actually wanted to beg for mercy.
After sneering at Zuo Hongxin, Zuo Mo looked at Zuo Liang and snorted.
"Look at him. In comparison, he is much stronger than you. At least this guy isn't crying and begging for mercy. Looking at his performance, I consider him a real man. "
Xia Keke's tone sounded very funny coming from the little loli's mouth.
Su Yan and Xiao Yumei couldn't help but cover their mouths and giggle. Zuo Hongde also sighed.
"If you knew this would happen, you wouldn't have acted in the first place."
This sigh seemed to define everything that was about to happen. Zuo Hongxin's eyes bulged as he lay on the ground. His mouth was wide open and he squirmed for a long time, but he couldn't say a word.
"Then I hope that Elder Brother can let that child Qingcheng go. She … I didn't fulfill my responsibility as a father, which is why she went down the wrong path."
Only then did everyone's gaze land on Zuo Qingcheng. Her beautiful face was filled with confusion and helplessness.
She didn't cry or make a fuss, but the dull look in her eyes showed how terrified and uneasy she was.
Perhaps it was so easy for a beautiful woman to gain sympathy. Even if she had done something outrageous just now, when the people around her saw her expression, they couldn't help but show sympathetic gazes.
"Alright, as you wish. It is the father's fault for not teaching her well. Qingcheng's punishment shall be borne by you. But it's impossible for her to stay in the Zuo family now. "
"As long as we can spare her life …"
Even a vicious tiger will not eat its cubs.
Even if Zuo Hongxin was as vicious as he was, he still wanted to protect his daughter in a situation like this.
Zuo Hongde shook his head and sighed when he saw his pleading expression.
"Let Qingcheng go to the countryside and stay away from trouble. I will guarantee her a lifetime of glory and wealth."
Under Zuo Hongde's orders, a few guest chamberlains and servants brought Zuo Qingcheng away from the martial arts field.
Zuo Hongxin's eyes revealed a trace of relief when he saw this. Then, he started kowtowing non-stop, even though his head was bleeding.
Suddenly, the look in his eyes changed.
He bit down hard on his tongue and committed suicide.
Zuo Hongde felt an inexplicable pain in his heart when he saw Zuo Hongxin lying motionless on the ground while vomiting blood.
Did he hate him?
Not so long ago, this wasn't the case between them.
"Zuo Hongxin has killed himself to atone for his crime of secretly usurping the position of family head. Someone, take him away and give him a proper burial! "
A few more guest chamberlains carried him away from the martial arts field. The surrounding guests couldn't help but shake their heads.
No one knew when the Zuo family would be able to recover after such an incident.
However, they were more concerned about how to deal with Zuo Liang, who was left until the end. He was the culprit behind all of this.
"Zuo Liang …"
When Zuo Hongde's gaze landed on Zuo Liang, he stopped.
"Do you know your crimes?"
"What crimes have I committed?"
Nobody expected Zuo Liang to still be able to say such arrogant words at a time like this. What's more, there was a hint of disdain in his gaze as he looked at Zuo Hongde.
"How dare you," the guest chamberlain punched him in the stomach.
"Ugh."
Zuo Liang's mocking expression remained after he finished retching, and he glared at the people in front of him with a dark gaze.
"Don't you just want to kill me? Come, laozi isn't afraid of you. And you, Zuo Hongde, do you dare to kill me? Don't you feel guilty for killing me? Of course, it's best if you kill me now. That way, you can keep the secret of how the Zuo family became the number one family forever. Come, kill me. If you can live in peace for the rest of your life, then kill me! "
"And you, Ye Zichen, laozi hates people like you the most. You think you can do whatever you want just because you're strong. If it wasn't for the people of the Immortal Region protecting you and the Yellow Emperor protecting you, you're nothing! But it doesn't matter, I know you've always wanted to ascend and return to your so-called modern world, but it's a pity that you can't go back in this lifetime. Kill me. Even if I become a malicious spirit, I will curse you to never be able to return to this world as you wish. "
"You dare to curse my Zichen-ge?"
Before the surrounding people could react, Xia Keke had already clenched her fist and punched Zuo Liang.
In the end, Ye Zichen walked up to her and pulled her back, but she was still cursing angrily.
"Zichen-ge actually cursed you. Let Keke help you kill him!"
"Forget it." Ye Zichen merely shook his head calmly, then bowed towards Zuo Hongde. "Family Head Zuo, I won't interfere in your family matters anymore. Farewell."
"Take care, Emperor Ye."
With that, Ye Zichen left without looking back.
With his departure, a large number of people instantly disappeared from the guest seats.
"Zichen."
Zuo Mo had wanted to chase after him, but when she remembered that this concerned her Zuo family, she could only bite her lips and stay.
Zuo Hongde knitted his eyebrows and looked at Zuo Liang, unsure of what to do.
"Let him go."
At that moment, a deep and aged voice sounded out from the guest seats. The surrounding guests all raised their heads and looked over. Only then did they see that among them, an old man in plain clothes stood up and walked out.
Who is this geezer?
Many of the guests muttered to themselves. Who does he think he is? He actually dared to say that he's going to let Zuo Liang go.
The group of people in the middle of the martial arts arena also looked at the old man …
