4207 He was protecting her openly!
“Uh …” Elder Gong’s words were stuck in his throat, and his expression was unusually ugly.
The expressions of the people below the stage were also very strange. The words of the Lord Governor had the same effect as Ling Chuxi’s words, but no matter how one listened to it, it felt like the Lord Governor was protecting Ling Chuxi.
“Lord Governor, how can this be reasonable? Yuwen Siyuan only has a primordial spirit left. What threat can he pose to Ling Chuxi?” Elder Gong also felt that mo Shili was protecting Ling Chuxi and said indignantly. Although his strength and status were not as high as mo Shili ‘s, he still had a strong background. Otherwise, he would not have taken the risk of offending the Yutian region Lord to attack Huangfu qingjue.
“Elder Gong, I don’t need to tell you the effects of the evil Dominator pill, do I?” Mo Shili’s face darkened as he asked coldly.
Elder Gong’s cold heart trembled. The evil Dominator pill … How did mo Shili know that the pill Yuwen Siyuan had taken earlier was the evil Dominator pill? Could it be that he had actually arrived long ago? could it be that he had actually been paying attention to everything that happened earlier?
As a ruling elder, colluding with the Yuwen and Shangguan families to deal with the Ling family was already a great taboo. However, he and Shangguan wuyou were master and disciple, so it was understandable for him to help his disciple. The key was that the matter of the evil Dominator pill was of great importance. Other than the various domain Lords, many of the ruling elders didn’t know of the existence of this spiritual pill. If it wasn’t a last resort, even Elder Gong himself wouldn’t easily consume it. Now that he had given it to Yuwen Siyuan, there was no way he could avoid this matter.
Faced with mo Shili’s question, Elder Gong broke out in a cold sweat. For a moment, he didn’t know how to answer.
“Let’s drop this matter. No one is to mention it again. ” Mo Shili said firmly. After thinking for a moment, he added,”in a battle between experts, life and death are on the line. Yuwen Siyuan’s death at Ling Chuxi’s hands was only his own fault. No one is allowed to Harbor any hatred in their hearts, and even more so, no one is allowed to find an opportunity to take revenge. Otherwise, they will be making an enemy out of our aristocratic family’s ruling council.”
There was an uproar in the audience. Previously, there were also people who suspected that mo Shili had the intention to protect Ling Chuxi, but no one dared to confirm it. However, mo Shili’s words were too obvious.
Although the Council’s purpose was to maintain the balance between the noble houses and suzerains to ensure the safety of the Qing-Yun realm, there were endless disputes between the ancient noble houses, and no one could really manage them. As long as it wasn’t too serious, the zone leader usually wouldn’t interfere. This was the first time he had ever openly supported the son of an influential family.
Just who was this Ling Chuxi? How could she let an honorable region master protect her so openly!
Elder Gong obviously didn’t expect mo Shili to say this. He was stunned for a moment and then looked at mo Shili angrily. His lips moved a few times, but in the end, he didn’t say a word.
Who asked him to give the evil Dominator pill to Yuwen Siyuan on his own accord? mo Shili did not harp on this matter and did not let it go. This could be considered as giving him a way out. No matter how mo Shili shielded Ling Chuxi, he could not say anything. Otherwise, if the matter was blown up, it would not be good for him at all.
However, when he thought about how he had painstakingly schemed to deal with Ling Chuxi, to the point where he had even thrown away his face, only to end up with such a result, he could not accept it no matter what.
Mo Qingyi secretly winked at Ling Chuxi again with a smile on her face. Intimidated by mo Shili’s might, not many people dared to look up at him. Even if they did, they didn’t dare to look at mo Qingyi, so no one noticed her small movements.
