Chapter 196 – Trying To Be Clever With Words (2/2)

Shortly after, the Elder returned with the master Lei Yun Tian following behind. There were also a group of family members rapidly rushing to this place as well.

When everyone saw the scene where Lei Yún on the ground kept repeating a single sentence did they finally believe the Elder’s words. Lei Yun Tian asked: “Little Yu, what exactly happened here?”

“I…” Lei Yu didn’t even have a chance to continue talking when the Elder interrupted. “Lei Yu was taking his revenge on being thrown off the cliff a few years ago!”

“Is this true?” Lei Yun Tian asked.

“No, it isn’t. I don’t know who you’re going to believe, but I was merely defending myself and didn’t make the first move. Lei Yún was holding a grudge from my words during the banquet so he made the first strike. I only raised my arm and nothing more.” Lei Yu’s explanation was simple and to the point. Those that heard this immediately understood the situation but inside the family, was there anyone that was going to side with Lei Yu? Perhaps the only one would be Lei Yun Tian since he’s the one that wants Lei Yu to rejoin the family as soon as possible.

“Lies! You’re definitely lying! There’s three people testifying against you! It’s all you! You tricked Lei Yún to this place and wanted to reenact the scene from a few years ago!” The Elder was hysterically screaming this and disregarded his own status.

Lei Yu raised his hands and shrugged, “I have nothing more to say. With Lei Yún’s lackeys testifying, what they said is exactly what you guys think happened. Is there any need for me to further explain myself?”

Lei Yun Tian believed Lei Yu since he wasn’t a fool. Lei Yún was the only grandson of the Elder so he was spoiled rotten by the Elder his entire life. Now that his grandson had become retarded by Lei Yu’s hands, the Elder would naturally use countless reasons to condemn Lei Yu.

After all, an Elder in the family has quite a prestigious status. Lei Yun Tian then asked: “Then what would you like done about this Elder?”

Without even thinking about it, the Elder said: “Implement the rules of the family! Break both his arms!”

“Why?” Lei Yu asked.

“Because you have inured a member of the Lei family!” The Elder rebutted. The two then started arguing back and forth.

“Doesn’t the punishment of the family rules only have the whip and the cane? Why was it that day I was thrown off a cliff, they only suffered a few whips by the family rules, yet now I have to have my arms broken?”

“Because back then, you were no longer a member of the family and had already been kicked out! Could it be that the injuries to my grandson can’t cause an outsider to have his arms broken?”

“So am I considered a member of the Lei family or not?”

“This… this…”

“Elder, are you becoming senile? An outsider like me, how can you scare me with family rules?” Lei Yu coldly said.

“You… you… you’re just trying to be clever with your words and twisting them! Master, you decide! I hope you will administer a fair judgment!” The Elder was speechless and could only put his hopes on Lei Yun Tian.

Being requested by the Elder, Lei Yun Tian suddenly felt that this wasn’t easy to handle. On one said was the future hope of the family, while the other side was a prestigious family Elder and the Elder’s successor.

If he really punished Lei Yu with the family rules, then how would he support this? Currently, Lei Yu was indeed not a member of the Lei family and the Elder and he were the ones that made the decision of kicking him out back then. This path wouldn’t make sense at all.
