The sinners of the ancient clans!
At this moment, everyone within the enormous volcano within the Fire Ancient Clan had solemn expressions on their faces.
The disciples and elders who were working outside had returned as well. They knew that the Fire Ancient Clan had caused trouble for themselves. Not delivering the goods on time was equivalent to breaching the contract and offending King Duan's Mansion!
King Duan's Mansion was one of the 4 King Mansions in Cloudsea City. It was a colossus that the Fire Ancient Clan couldn't afford to offend.
"Lin Tang, do you admit to your crimes?" Roar!
It was the Grand Elder, Lin Nan Shan.
Among the crowd, Lin Tang and everyone else in the mine knelt there with their heads lowered in silence!
They hadn't completed their mission and caused the Fire Ancient Clan to offend a formidable enemy. They were guilty indeed!
"You were in charge of the mine. Now that something has happened, you should take full responsibility for it!" Lin Nan Shan spoke again, and then he gazed at Ancestor Tai Yan, "Ancestor, I suggest that Lin Tang be removed from his position as the Sixth Elder and be punished to face the wall on Fire Spirit Mountain for 50 years!" Roar!
It was a very heavy punishment!
After 50 years of facing the wall, the world would have changed. Perhaps Lin Tang would be depressed for the rest of his life and die alone on Fire Spirit Mountain!
Ancestor Tai Yan frowned. He knew that Lin Tang's mission was very difficult, so he didn't want to punish him too much even if he failed. However, Lin Nan Shan had spoken about it in public. Even if he wanted to be lenient, it would be difficult for him to appease the crowd!
"Also, where's Lin Ling? Has he fled to avoid punishment? He can't escape responsibility for this. Moreover, he didn't contribute anything to the Fire Ancient Clan and even implicated it. I think he should be removed from his position as a genius. Also, he should face the wall on Fire Spirit Mountain for 100 years! " Roar!
100 years!
Many gasped. That was equivalent to facing the wall for the rest of his life!
"Grand Elder, this has nothing to do with Little Ling. I was in charge of the mine, so I take full responsibility!" Lin Tang stared coldly at Lin Nan Shan and said through gritted teeth.
"You indeed have to take full responsibility, but Lin Ling can't escape responsibility either!" Lin Nan Shan snorted coldly.
"That's right. Lin Ling is a Heaven's Pride of Heaven, but he hasn't made any contributions. Now, he has even implicated the ancient race. He should face the wall for a hundred years! "
"Unable to accomplish anything, but good at spoiling things. I agree with Grand Elder's decision!" "
Many people voiced their support for Great Elder. Upon closer inspection, they were all Great Elder's people.
The others were silent. Although many people knew that the Great Elder was using this as a pretext to make a fuss, it was undeniable that Lin Ling and Lin Tang had indeed made a mistake. Moreover, it was a grave mistake. Even if many people wanted to offend them, they couldn't find a good explanation!
At this moment, several figures walked over from afar. Many people glanced at them.
"It's Lin Ling! They're back!" "
Voices sounded one after another. Everyone's expression was complicated.
Lin Nan Shan sneered coldly. "You bunch of trash, you're finally back? I thought that you guys had fled to avoid punishment. I was just about to issue a warrant for your arrest! " "
Lin Ling and the others walked back. However, their expressions were calm. They knew that the Fire Ancient Clan thought that they had failed to hand over the mine. Currently, the Fire Ancient Clan had offended King Duan's Residence. No one knew that their team had not only completed their mission, but they had also found the spy hidden in the ancient race!
"Yo, you guys think you're the Ancestor. We just came back and you're already convicting us. "
Lin Changqiang was impatient. He immediately mocked them with Cold Words.
This was because he knew that the real culprit was Lin Nan Shan. Now, this old man even dared to bite back. He was really cunning!
"How dare you!" ""
Great Elder Lin Nan Shan shouted. He turned to look at Ancestor Tai Yan. "Ancestor, these people not only made a big mistake, but they're also stubborn. I think they should be executed!" ""
Ancestor Tai Yan frowned. He was a little unhappy. This Lin Nan Shan was using this as an excuse to make a fuss. He was getting worse!
"Lin Nan Shan, are you still human? They're also working hard, but things aren't under our control. Who knew that our route would be known to the enemy, causing the black iron mine to be robbed? This has nothing to do with them! " Lin Tang shouted angrily. He couldn't stand it anymore.
"Don't find excuses. A failure is a failure!" ""
Lin Nan Shan sneered. Then, he looked at Lin Ling. "Lin Ling, you're a genius. What else do you have to say?" ""
Lin Ling had been watching Lin Nan Shan jump around like a clown. Only when Lin Nan Shan asked him did he calmly smile. "I don't know why you're so proud, as if you've encountered something happy. However, you said I made a big mistake. Where did I go wrong?" As an Elder, you have to pay the price for slandering others! ""
"Don't mislead others!" "" "
Lin Nan Shan's expression turned ugly.
Lin Ling said he was happy. In fact, he was in a good mood. However, how could he show this in front of everyone? After all, the ancient race was in trouble. If he was the only one who was happy, how would others see him? They would definitely think that a grand Elder like him was looking forward to something happening to the ancient race.
Therefore, Lin Ling's casual words immediately made Lin Nan Shan gnash his teeth.
"You said you didn't make a mistake?" "You went to the mine to assist Lin Tang and handed over the ores on time, but you failed. You let down the ancient race's expectations of you and even made the ancient race offend a great enemy. Your mistake is simply infuriating!" Lin Nan Shan adjusted his attitude and said coldly.
"You're punishing me because of this?" "However, where did you get the confidence to think that I didn't hand over the ores on time? Or are you slandering me? " "Hmph, I'm the pride of this generation. Slandering me is equivalent to slandering the ancient race. Can you bear the consequences?" Lin Ling coldly snorted.
"Haha, slandering?" "Haha."
Lin Nan Shan laughed loudly. He really couldn't understand why Lin Ling still wanted to shirk responsibility at this time. However, was this possible? Everyone knew that the black iron ore in the mine had been stolen!
"If I slandered you, I'll kneel three times and kowtow nine times to you. However, if this is the truth, you won't be able to escape the ancient race's most severe punishment — death!" Lin Nan Shan shouted loudly.
He had full confidence in himself!
"Good, a gentleman's word cannot be taken back!" "Yes."
Lin Ling nodded heroically.
"What? Lin Ling is crazy! " "Yes."
The crowd was shocked. At this juncture, Lin Ling still wanted to show off and even agreed to apologize with death. Could it be that he didn't want to admit his mistake even if he was beaten to death?
Unfortunately, the truth was already a foregone conclusion. The ores in the mine had already been stolen. This was something that many people had seen!
"Little Ling."
Lin Tang was also stunned. He couldn't understand at all.
"Haha, looks like I came at the right time!" "Haha."
Just at this moment, a soft chuckle rang out from the crowd. A scholarly middle-aged man slowly walked over. He had his hands behind his back like a wise man. His calm demeanor caused everyone to be stunned.
"Ancestor Tai Yan, listen to my orders. I'm here on behalf of Duke Duan to present a banner. In this transaction, the Fire Ancient Clan has completed the shortage of weapons and contributed enough black iron ores. The Fire Ancient Clan will record this merit. This is the banner. At the same time, the Duke's boundless kindness is rewarded with three thousand spiritual crystals!" "Haha."
After the scholarly middle-aged man smiled, he slowly said.
"Ah?" "Haha."
Everyone in the Fire Ancient Clan widened their eyes as if they were afraid of seeing the wrong person.
