C12 award (1/2)

In the afternoon, in the Lin Family's business hall, almost all of the twenty odd people that were the manager of the Lin Family were invited by Lin Yuan and Lin Long.

The first one who spoke was Elder Ge, who narrated how Lin Long had tactfully lied to him.

”Even though you are a direct descendant of the family, Lin Long, for you to do such a thing, how can you submit to the masses without severely punishing them?”

”I never thought that you, Lin Long, would actually be such a person. It's truly disappointing.”

”Fifth brother is born with a mellow disposition and hates evil like a hatred. I never thought that his son would be such a person.”

”It wouldn't be too much if such a person were to be expelled from the family.”

”It is indeed not excessive, because there is such a rule in the family iron law. Anyone who commits a serious crime must immediately be expelled from the family.”

After Elder Ge finished speaking, everyone present could not help but shake their heads. They did not expect Lin Long to be so shameless and brazen, as they all started to criticize him.

Seeing everyone's expression now, Lin Yuanhe was very satisfied in his heart, but when he thought about the Spirit Orchid Grass that Lin Long had taken away, his face immediately darkened, and he immediately turned to Lin Long as he asked in a stern voice, ”Lin Long, do you have anything else to say?”

”What I want to say is still the same. This Spirit Orchid Grass is originally mine.” Lin Long said lightly.

Upon hearing this, the crowd that was originally scolding Lin Long immediately stopped their discussion, and looked at Lin Long, Lin Yu and the rest in shock. If what Lin Long had said was true, then this matter would not be as simple as it seemed.

”You won't cry until you see the coffin.” Lin Yuanhe sneered, and then said to Lin Rong, who had also been called over, ”Lin Rong, tell me what exactly happened?”

Regarding this matter, Lin Yuanhe had also heard about it from his own son, Lin Yu. Lin Yu said that at that time, it was him who discovered and obtained the Spirit Orchid Grass, and then when he was leaving together with Lin Rong and Lin Long that they encountered a powerful demon beast. In the end, the three of them worked together to force the demon beast away, but in the process, Lin Long was accidentally injured by the demon beast.

Whether or not what Lin Yu had said was true, he did not believe that the current Lin Rong would go back on his words, given that Lin Yu and Lin Rong had firmly believed in the truth of the matter.

More importantly, he had a good relationship with Lin Rong's father, Lin Yuanli.

And as long as Lin Rong was speaking the same words as before, Lin Long would not be able to turn the situation around.

Under the gazes of the crowd, Lin Rong appeared to be hesitating. It was only under the urging of his father that he finally stepped forward.

”Great Clan Elder, the situation was like this. Back then, it was not Lin Yu who obtained the Spirit Orchid Grass, but Lin Long who obtained it. Only after Lin Long told us about this matter, did we find out.

”Lin Rong, what did you say? How can you invert right and wrong?” Hearing Lin Rong's words, Lin Yu who was half reclining on a chair, had a bad look on his face.

Lin Yuanhe's expression had also turned somewhat ugly. As for the people around, their expressions were strange. It seemed that this matter was indeed rather complicated.

”Young Master Lin Yu, it's judgement time now, please do not interrupt others.” Zhang Zhi's voice sounded at the right time.

Lin Yu could only shut his mouth helplessly, but his eyes were fiercely staring at Lin Rong who was not far away.

”Alright, Young Master Lin Rong, please continue.” Zhang Zhi indicated.

”Originally, I didn't have any intention of getting this Spirit Orchid Grass, but then Lin Yu secretly pulled me to the side and said that if I helped him get the Spirit Orchid Grass, he would give me a great debt.” Lin Rong continued.

”You're slandering me.” Lin Yu who had just lied back down suddenly shouted again.

”Shut up!” He then turned to face Lin Rong and said coldly, ”Lin Rong, right now we are in the family's main hall, not playing games outside. So I hope you do not casually frame anyone, or else the consequences will not be something you can bear.”

After saying that, Lin Yuanhe's gaze shifted to Lin Rong's father, Lin Yuanliao. However, he realized that Lin Yuanliao did not dare to look at him.

Damn it, what was going on with this family? Lin Yuanhe cursed in his heart.

”Understood, Grand Elder.” Lin Rong said softly, but his following words caused both Lin Yuan and Lin Yu's expressions to turn ugly.

”Because Lin Yu is the Great Clan Elder's son, and even promised to give me the secret manual for the Coiling Dragon Hands, I promised to do it later on. Later on, when Lin Long wasn't paying attention, we would slap him unconscious, and unlike what I said before, Lin Long was not injured by a demon beast. Then, Lin Yu took away the Spirit Orchid Grass on Lin Long's body, and gave me the secret manual for the Coiling Dragon Hands a few days after we returned to our clan.”

”Lin Rong, stop slandering us. There is no such thing.” Lin Yu retorted loudly, but he did not notice that his voice was trembling.
