Normally in front of his family, the third elder would address Ling Mofeng as his second brother, but at this time, he solemnly addressed him as the head of the family, which shows his inner dissatisfaction.
"Say." Ling Mofeng said calmly without getting angry.
"You said that Ling Chuxi is Fenghua's daughter. Although I don't know about this, but judging from her appearance, she is indeed the daughter of my Ling family, so I don't doubt this. However, after all, she has been away for many years and has not yet
I have gone to the ancestral hall to recognize my ancestors and return to my clan. Isn’t it a little early to recognize my relatives now?” said the third elder.
"If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten. Let's go to the ancestral hall first, wait for Chu Xi to recognize his ancestor and return to the clan, and then meet with all the elders." Ling Mofeng knew that what the third elder wanted to say was definitely not that simple, but he remained calm.
's nodded.
Ling Chuxi could also see that the third elder was not convinced and came up with some evil ideas, but even her grandfather didn't care, so she had nothing to worry about.
"Master of the family, I'm afraid this is not appropriate. Although Wu Yude and others had bad intentions, what they said earlier made some sense. Fenghua gave birth to a child out of wedlock and ruined the family tradition. If her daughter can so easily recognize her ancestors and return to the clan, the family will be spread.
If we go out, won't our Ling family become the laughing stock of the world?" The third elder shook his head and said with a look of embarrassment on his face.
"There is some truth in what the third elder said. This... this Chu Xi's identity is not pleasant no matter how you say it. If it spreads, it will be detrimental to the reputation of our Ling family." Several other heads of the Ling family branch also said hesitantly.
They are not colluding with the third elder, but they really care about the reputation of the Ling family. After all, it is an ancient family, and the single daughter of the majestic family leader actually gave birth to a child out of wedlock. It is really not good to hear this matter spread.
Although the other young disciples were not qualified to interrupt, they looked at Ling Chuxi with hostility in their eyes. Why did the Ling family fall to where they are today? Isn't it because of the entanglement between Ling Fenghua and the Shangguan family?
Due to the Lord's prestige, they usually dare not discuss this matter openly, but in their hearts they all blame Ling Fenghua for this debt.
As the saying goes, the father pays the debt and the son pays it back. Ling Chuxi is Ling Fenghua's daughter. This debt naturally falls on Ling Chuxi.
"Hmph, Chu Xi is the granddaughter of my Ling Mofeng. Regardless of whether she recognizes her ancestor or not, she is still the granddaughter of my Ling Mofeng and a descendant of my Ling family. I want to see who dares to make irresponsible remarks.
!" Ling Mofeng snorted coldly, and the Lingtian domineering energy emerged from his body again.
"My lord, you are a high-ranking master. Naturally, no one dares to make irresponsible remarks in front of you, but what can you do to others when talking behind their backs?" Seeing Ling Mofeng show his domineering side again, the third elder
He also felt a little guilty, but this matter involved the reputation of the Ling family. No matter how domineering Ling Mofeng was, he would never do anything to his own family. He thought he was being reasonable, so he continued to babble.
Anyway, he had made up his mind. Ling Mofeng would not let him get his wish, and he would never let Ling Mofeng have an easy time. Even if there was nothing he could do to Ling Mofeng, he would still make things difficult for his granddaughter, otherwise he would not be able to get rid of the depression in his heart.
gas.
"Third Elder, please tell me clearly, what will it take for me to return to the Ling family?" Ling Chuxi couldn't help but say.
When it comes to her own identity and the reputation of the Ling family, even the relatives of the Ling family who originally supported her grandfather were quite critical. Even if her grandfather could overcome the opinions with absolute strength, they still refused to accept it. Ling Chuxi did not want to destroy her grandfather.
