"Great Alchemist Ling, if it was anyone else, this would be possible, but Xiahou Ying is not just anyone. He is a Deacon of the clan's Council. Although he is only an outer Deacon, he is still a member of the Council. By doing this, aren't you making an enemy of the Council?" Clan master Qian shook his head and sighed.
"It's precisely because he's a member of the noble clan's Council that I have to do this," Said Ling Chuxi with a slight smile.
"Alchemy Grandmaster Ling, you mean ..." Clan master Qian looked at Ling Chuxi in confusion.
"The great clan judgement Committee exists to judge the fights between the great clans and to maintain the peace of the Qing-Yun realm. However, the Qing-Yun realm is so big, and there are so many great clans, so they can't take care of the small things. It is for this reason that even someone like Xiahou Ying, who can't even be seen in public, dares to use a chicken feather as an arrow, brazenly bullying men and women, even brazenly asking for bribes.
If I were to endure today's matter, not only would he continue to pester me, but he would also most likely make things difficult for you with his authority. "If that's the case, I might as well make a big deal out of it, and in the end, everyone in the small realm will know about it. It'd be best if I could make it even bigger, and directly report it to the clan adjudication board. I'd like to see if the clan adjudication board would risk the world's taboo and make things difficult for so many clans in the small realm for a mere outer Deacon. "Ling Chuxi laughed coldly.
Clan master Qian and the others finally realized that Ling Chuxi had not been impulsive, but had long planned it. After thinking about it carefully, Ling Chuxi's words made sense. If this matter were to blow up, the aristocratic family's ruling council would not risk the world to favor a mere outer Deacon.
It was also because of this reason that Ling Chuxi only ruthlessly beat up Xiahou Ying and did not kill him. If she really did kill him, no matter who was in the wrong, it would be equivalent to declaring war on the aristocratic family's ruling council.
It seemed that Ling Chuxi's actions just now seemed impulsive on the surface, but in fact, she had thought it through carefully. Zhang Chi's control was at the right time and she had grasped it just right.
Looking at Ling Chuxi's delicate and beautiful face, no one would have thought that she actually had such a scheming mind and such a scheme.
However, with her meddling, why did it feel like all the aristocratic families present had been tied to the same rope by her? they were bound together for good or bad.
"That's right. Since we've already beaten him up, we might as well go all out. We'll send someone to spread the news. The bigger the commotion, the better." The Chen clan head's habit of fearing for the world to not be in chaos reappeared as he spoke with great interest.
"I don't think there's a need. There's no such thing as a wall that doesn't leak. The commotion just now was so big that I think someone has already leaked it. It won't take long for the news to spread throughout the entire small realm." Ling Chuxi said with certainty.
The Xu family head and the others looked at Ling Chuxi in confusion. Suddenly, they heard a crisp sound from the side. A maidservant who was serving food staggered and her hand slipped, dropping the plate on the ground.
"Lord patriarch, please calm down. I didn't do it on purpose, I didn't do it on purpose." The maidservant's face was red as she lowered her head in fear.
Upon seeing this situation, everyone guessed that the maidservant must have told the others about this matter while she was serving the dishes. Hearing Ling Chuxi's words, she was so frightened that she lost her head.
"How dare you!" The Xu family head shouted sternly.
