Master Yushu has confidence in Lin Jia. This is due to his trust in the Shangguan family behind him. He is also confident in his own sect. He is sure that the other party will not offend the Qingcheng sect without reason.
This was also the case. Lin Jia left Master Yushu drinking tea in the front hall and called several other masters in the family to accompany him. He immediately arranged manpower and began to inspect the inside and outside of the house.
Naturally, this move quickly alarmed Shangguan Beicang and Le Zhili. Faced with the questioning from the mother and son, Lin Jia hurriedly relayed the words of Master Yushu.
Shangguan Beicang doesn't think it's a big deal. Yushu is an upright person, and he has shown courtesy when he comes to visit this time. Xuantian's thieves are ambitious, and if they are not guarded against, they will inevitably fall into their trap.
However, regarding this matter, Le Zhili, who has always been eager for justice and justice, showed great opposition.
"No!"
Le Zhili's eyebrows were raised coldly, as if she was a little nervous. She couldn't finish her sentence, and it took her a while to hold back such a lame excuse: "Just because of the Qingcheng faction's words, you will bring people to inspect your house. If this is rumored,
If we go out, the Shangguan family will be completely disgraced."
"...Madam?" Lin Jia frowned, looking puzzled.
The reputation of the Shangguan family is a joke. Over the years, they have been completely disgraced by Wen Chenyang and Le Zhili, the inexplicable sworn brother and sister. Lin Jia has no idea that their actions can bring the Shangguan family into disgrace.
Besides, the Qingcheng sect is not using force to suppress others. Master Yushu came to explain the reasons in person. There was also the fatal variable of the Thousand-faced Dharma King. They themselves led people to dig through the corners of the house to give the other party an explanation. How could it be considered
Shame on you.
"Mother?" Even Shangguan Beicang felt that Le Zhili's reaction was a bit excessive, and even this reason was somewhat untenable.
As a son, Shangguan Beicang would not doubt Le Zhili, but Lin Jia was different. He looked down on this mistress from the bottom of his heart, and naturally he had endless suspicions that were beyond the pale and offensive.
As a mistress, Le Zhili had never considered a problem from the perspective of the Shangguan family. This was the first time she had heard this so-called face mentioned. As an excuse, it couldn't be more obvious.
What Lin Jia thought at first was that the other party was not willing to have too much contact with the Qingcheng Sect because of Wen Chenyang. This time when Master Yushu came to visit, it just aroused the other party's resistance again.
But it's wrong to think about it carefully. Le Zhili is really simple-minded and outspoken. Those dissatisfactions are always shown on her face. If she is dissatisfied, the other party can just speak directly. Anyway, this is not her first time.
For once, he showed his malice towards the Qingcheng faction.
But it happened that Le Zhili found such a lame excuse this time. After Lin Jia frowned and thought, a terrifying guess arose in his mind. He looked at Le Zhili in shock. Could this woman be so stupid?
To what extent?
"lady."
Lin Jia lowered his voice and said solemnly: "Please explain to me clearly, do you know anything about the child that the Qingcheng faction is looking for?"
"...What kind of child, I don't know." Le Zhili turned her head, her tone was unnatural and angry.
It's over.
Lin Jia's eyes darkened and he felt his heart sinking to the bottom. His upright body swayed and he almost fell backwards to the ground. When he came to his senses, he almost couldn't help but curse.
Le Zhili's obvious lie made him immediately convinced that things had developed in the worst direction.
"Madam!" Lin Jia suppressed his anger and said in a low voice: "Why do you want to touch the Qingcheng sect's people if you have nothing to do? Hand them over quickly, and I will find a way to deal with this matter!"
Shangguan Beicang also looked at his mother dumbfounded. The matter was exposed, but Le Zhili had no intention of admitting her mistake. She instead said: "This matter is not that simple. I have discussed it with Brother Wen. This Qingcheng sect
The leader is not the gentleman he appears to be."
Then, Le Zhili told Lin Jia how she and Wen Chenyang found Amao in the woodshed, the special circumstances surrounding him, and their suspicions about the Qingcheng Sect.
"...That young man has the body of Xuanyin, which is really weird. He is so afraid of the Qingcheng sect. There must be some ulterior secret in it. I guess that he was kidnapped by the Qingcheng sect.
, we might as well keep him, as long as we start from him, we will always find some clues." Le Zhili analyzed.
"You are confused!" Lin Jia blurted out this sentence after hearing this.
Lin Jia was a calm person, but this was the first time he yelled without regard for his dignity. Although there was a reason, Shangguan Beicang still looked at him seriously and said with some dissatisfaction: "Mr. Lin, how could you treat your mother like this?"
say."
"...Yes, what the young master is teaching me is that my subordinate's words were too extreme. Please forgive me."
Lin Jia took a deep breath, stared at Le Zhili with disgust, and said, "Madam, you are absolutely wrong. Hand the person over quickly. I will take care of the rest, so I don't need to worry about you."
"Lin Jia, didn't you hear what I said?" Le Zhili said coldly: "These sneaky methods of the Qingcheng faction are really not the right way to do it. Is it possible that you want to help the emperor do evil?"
"Oh? According to Madam, do you want to act bravely for justice?"
Lin Jia asked back with a smile, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "Please forgive me for being rude, Madam, do you really know what you are talking about? Qingcheng Sect, whether it is a righteous person or a devil, what does it have to do with my Shangguan family?
"
"You..." Le Zhili looked at Lin Jia in disbelief.
Lin Jia said calmly: "The Shangguan family is engaged in real gold and silver business, not a charity. The Qingcheng sect's good deeds and evil have nothing to do with us. This brat was taken away by them and chopped into meat paste immediately. Our Shangguan family
I won’t even say half a word no.”
Facing Le Zhili's shocked gaze, Lin Jia said coldly: "What the Shangguan family should do now is to use this matter to resolve the dispute they had with the Qingcheng sect. As for that Xuanyin body...
We have no control over matters in the arena, and Madam should not cause trouble."
"Lin Jia! You don't distinguish between good and evil! But you know that your actions have already described the devil!" Le Zhili scolded sternly.
Lin Jia sneered and said: "Madam, I'm afraid you have been away from home for too long. Don't you know that people in the world talk about good things and demons? We, the Shangguan family, are distinguished and different from such mud-legged people. Please don't talk nonsense, madam."
"You are so presumptuous!" Le Zhili was so angry that her whole body trembled.
Lin Jia shook his head and sighed, and cast his cold eyes slowly behind Le Zhili, where Wen Chenyang stood with a face as sinking as water.
"Here comes the great hero Wen. Haha, I'm sorry to say anything. Today's matter is Shangguan's family matter after all. I hope you won't stand in the way." Lin Jia said coldly.
Wen Chenyang also responded with a stern attitude: "Of course I will not interfere in the Shangguan's family affairs, but let me say one thing, Mr. Lin has no respect for his elders today and speaks without reason. This crime he committed, I don't know what punishment should be given."
"Lin Jia made a mistake, and naturally the head of the family should punish him. I'm afraid it's not Daxia Wen's turn to comment."
Lin Jia took a deep look at Wen Chenyang, then took a step forward, his aura suddenly rose. He glared down at Le Zhili and said solemnly: "Madam, please hand this person over."
