Chapter 500: Sabotage (2/2)

”Allright, I'll stop teasing you.” Jin Rou laughed and said. He knew that the elder was about to spat bad blood from anger, ”How about we let this hidden gentleman to show himself?”

Jin Rou looked in a distant direction. Everyone followed his gaze and no one found anything. What Jin Rou was looking there?

The void suddenly rumbled. Jin Rou smirked and knew that the perpetrator was trying to escape. He was about to block the escape path when someone said, ”Let him be.”

Asner looked at the direction of the familiar voice and murmured, ”Father...?”

Jin Rou looked at him too and examined Asner's father.

An inner core cultivator, and a peak one at that. Jin Rou was amazed by the thick and strong foundation of this elf. He was impressed.

Tibur Xero walked up to Jin Rou and said, ”Thank you for helping my son out. However, you don't need to push far to reveal the culprit. I have already had someone who's that probably, so rest assured that this will be handled appropriately.”

The elder felt his legs almost turning jelly. Tibur Xero was a high official of Higher Office. In fact, he had a great deal of power in that stracture and could actually command respect and work. He didn't expect that he would be here at all. After all, he was a great and busy person who rarely showed himself in public.

”Elder Rus, you will be dismissed for the meantime until this problem is further investigated. So please leave.” Asner's father was still showing basic respect towards the elder despite the seniority between them, ”And I hope that you aren't involved in this case, or else I don't know what I can do.”

It was a warning. Tibur Xero wasn't going to let this slide. It was natural. His son was bullied right in front of him and he didn't even manage to notice the problem until Jin Rou spoke. It was shameful as someone who was standing by the second from the top peak of this kingdom.

Elder Rus didn't dilly dally and immediately rushed to leave. He didn't want to lose more face here and he knew that his future was doomed. He would prepare his resignation letter when he go home and hide.

That's right. He was actually guilty, and Jin Rou and Asner's father knew this but they let him go. Why? Because Asner's father was confident of finding this elder no matter where he hid himself.

The elder was filled with regret as he ran for his life. He was daring enough to play with fire because he thought that he got the backing of the person. Unfortunately, he was dumped in the process.
