Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ji Beiwang indignantly looked at him. “But she…”
“Don’t you understand what I’m saying?” Ji Lingfeng glared at him, visibly enraged.
Ji Beiwang reluctantly looked where the girl had disappeared. He clenched his fists and unwillingly lowered his head. “Patriarch, I didn’t mean that.”
Ji Lingfeng said indifferently, “That’s good. Disperse!”
The people from the Punishment Hall looked at each other. All of them were silent like cicadas in winter. No one dared to go against his wishes, but they did not want to leave.
He Lin arrived at this moment. His heart suddenly constricted when he saw Ji Lingfeng confronting the people from the Punishment Hall. He quickly approached Ji Lingfeng and lowered his voice to say, “Patriarch, the people from the Bright Gate are here. They said they must see you.”
“What are they doing here?” Ji Lingfeng asked impatiently. In a bad mood, his expression was extremely cold as he frowned.
He Lin stole a glance at the people from the Punishment Hall and vaguely said, “I don’t know either. That Young Master Ye from Bright Gate only said that he must see you, Patriarch.”
Ye Wangchuan came personally?
Ji Lingfeng smirked. “Let’s go.”
“Yes, Patriarch.”
He Lin straightened his back and prepared to lead the way.
Before Ji Lingfeng left, he slightly turned his head, not directly looking at the people from the Punishment Hall, and said to them, “I said to let her go. If anyone chases after her again, don’t blame me for falling out with you.”
He Lin vaguely guessed who barged into the Ji family today.
His eyelids twitched violently. He lowered his head and did not dare to show it. He only quickened his pace to lead the way for Ji Lingfeng.
In the blink of an eye, He Lin and Ji Lingfeng disappeared from everyone’s sight. Only when they were out of sight did the people from the Punishment Hall dare to discuss.
“Why didn’t Patriarch let us chase after him? That person is too arrogant. He actually dared to barge into the Ji family. If we let ‘him’ leave just like that, what will the families outside think of us?”
“That’s right. I don’t know what the Patriarch is thinking. He actually stopped us from chasing him!”
Ji Ming ignored them and walked straight to Ji Beiwang’s side. He patted his shoulder, asking with concern, “Are you alright?”
Ji Beiwang was in his early fifties. He was of medium height and had a strong figure. His eyes were filled with a reserved glint. At a glance, he was someone with some ability.
Hearing this, he retracted his gaze. “Did you see the satchel on that person’s back? She definitely took something from the Punishment Hall! Moreover, since she spent so much effort to cause such a huge commotion, what she took was definitely not ordinary!”
“There’s nothing we can do if the Patriarch doesn’t allow us to chase.” Ji Ming was the one who shot Qiao Nian. He only patted his shoulder hard and persuaded in a low voice, “Just think about it.”
Ji Beiwang was expressionless. He pursed his lips with doubts in his heart.
“Don’t you think the Patriarch seems to know who that person is? The Patriarch is protecting her.”
Ji Ming was shocked and quickly interrupted him. “Stop talking!”
Ji Beiwang’s eyes were filled with disappointment and anger. He clenched his fists tightly and pursed his lips, not saying anything else.
However, he was already suspicious of Ji Lingfeng.
In his eyes, regardless of whether Ji Lingfeng knew the person who barged into the Ji family today, as the head of the family, he should prioritize the family’s interests and reputation.
In his opinion, no matter who the person today was, the Ji family should stop him at all costs.. Otherwise, how could the Ji family call themselves the number one family in the independent continent in the future?!
