C84 Annoyed
When he thought about how Zhao Ming saw Mu Xianxian's arrogant and respectful manner, Long Yaotian knew that it must have something to do with this masked girl!
The hatchet man that he had made friends with left just like that, and was even tricked by these two people. This naturally made Long Yaotian feel very uncomfortable in his heart. He snorted coldly and said, "Today's banquet will end here. This prince is feeling a little uncomfortable. I will return to the prefecture to rest first."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the jade pendant on the table. This jade pendant must not fall into Long Xiaotian's hands! Otherwise, not to mention that he would not be able to explain it to his father in the future, even his mother would scold him severely when she found out about this matter.
"Third Brother, this jade pendant is not yours anymore!" Although Long Xiaotian looked like he was joking with Mu Xianxian in a low voice, his eyes had already been fixed on Long Yaotian's actions. Seeing that Long Yaotian wanted to break his promise, he attacked first. He grabbed the jade pendant in his hand.
"How dare you!" Long Yaotian couldn't help but shout in anger. His palm was called 'Subduing Dragon Palm', and it was aimed at Long Xiaotian's chest.
"Peng!" Long Xiaotian caught it with his palm, and both of them took a step back.
Long Yaotian's facial expression changed. In his heart, he had already become suspicious of Du Chen. Could it be that Du Chen had also colluded with Long Xiaotian? Therefore, he only showed the fight in the dojo to himself.
Since Zhao Ming could collude with Long Xiaotian to make fun of him, why couldn't Du Chen?
But now, he knew that he was wrong. Long Xiaotian's strength wasn't any weaker than his. He attacked first, but was still blocked by ___.
He didn't know whether Long Xiaotian was pretending or not. One should know that although Long Xiaotian didn't seem to have a cultivation base on the surface, his cultivation base was at the peak of the Body Refining Tier, and his strength was far from what he could compare with.
Long Xiaotian smiled and said, "Mo, do you want to say that it doesn't count?"
Long Yaotian said with a gloomy expression, "Fifth Brother, I didn't think that you had been hiding your strength all this time. Does this mean that Wang Er died in your hands?"
Steward Wang Er had mysteriously disappeared, and all the suspicious points were pointed at the Fifth Prince's Estate. But what puzzled Long Yaotian was that besides Long Xiaotian, there was also Xiao Fang in the Fifth Prince's Estate.
If Xiao Fang really had the strength to kill Steward Wang, then she wouldn't have been exposed even after she was captured by Du Chen. However, Xiao Fang didn't have any cultivation base at all!
He had always suspected that it was Lin Wushuang who attacked or sent out a protector, because Lin Wushuang had such an ability. A mere Wang Er wasn't even in his eyes.
Although Lin Wushuang wasn't as powerful as before, he was still a Great General. Now that Long Yaotian wanted to become a Great General, he really didn't dare to offend Lin Wushuang. Therefore, he could only suppress his anger.
However, he had never thought that Long Xiaotian would have a cultivation base that was on par with his. This meant that it might not be Lin Wushuang who did it. Why couldn't Long Xiaotian do it himself if he had such strength?
He had made a mistake. It turned out that this kid had been hiding his strength all along. It was ridiculous that he and Second Brother thought that he was a cripple that could be bullied at will!
"You're right. Master has deceived his master. You dare to bully my maidservant with your power, and you even spoke rudely to me. Don't tell me that I don't have the right to punish him?" Long Xiaotian asked in an overbearing manner.
Long Yaotian was rendered speechless. No matter what, Long Xiaotian was still the Fifth Prince. Wang Er was just a puny servant. Even if Long Xiaotian had no reason to kill him, he would only be grounded.
"Third Brother, I can understand how you feel about this jade pendant. But, give me an answer, and I will return this jade pendant to you. Otherwise, this will be mine. " Long Xiaotian stroked the Golden Dragon Jade Pendant, as if he couldn't bear to part with it.
The Golden Dragon Jade Pendant was something Long Yaotian couldn't lose no matter what. When he heard that Long Xiaotian wanted to give it back, he couldn't care less about Wang Er's death. If he continued to ask, he would only lose more face.
The most important thing for him right now was to take the Golden Dragon Jade Pendant back from Long Xiaotian's hands. He was willing to pay any price.
Thinking of this, Long Yaotian hurriedly asked, "What conditions do you have? As long as I have it, I can give it to you. Gold, silver, crystal, jewelry. As long as you say it!"
"I want one word from you." Long Xiaotian stared at Long Yaotian coldly." Did you do it? "
Although Long Xiaotian spoke vaguely, Long Yaotian immediately understood what he meant. On the surface, it seemed like Wang Er was the one who did it, but Long Xiaotian wanted him to admit that he was the one who drugged him in front of so many people. No matter what, he couldn't admit it!
If he admitted it, not only would he lose face, no one would dare to support him openly. He would also lose the qualification to fight for the throne.
"Fifth Brother, what are you saying? That Soul Dispelling Powder is a sect item, how can I have the qualifications to obtain it?" Under Long Xiaotian's aggressive gaze, Long Yaotian felt a little weak in his heart. He unnaturally avoided Long Xiaotian's gaze and explained in a weak voice.
Long Xiaotian laughed and said, "When did I say that I used Soul Dispelling Powder? Third Brother, you are making a confession yourself."
Although Long Xiaotian's intuition told him that it was Wang Er who attacked him, it must be his master's intention. Judging from the various signs, Long Yaotian was indeed anxious to get rid of him as a hindrance.
The reason was very simple. Although he was a trash, there was a big tree behind him, and that was the Lin Family.
Sigh, speaking of which, the Lin Family really did let him down. No one came to help him when he was being bullied, but judging from Lin Tao's behavior, the Lin Family didn't seem like a heartless person.
Although the Lin Family had never done anything to help him, this wasn't the case in Long Yaotian's eyes.
Long Yaotian could rope in other princes because these princes didn't have any backing, and his mother was the eldest daughter of the Lin Family. Thus, he naturally regarded them as a thorn in his side.
However, it was only his guess. Even if Long Yaotian and Du Chen had colluded to set him up, there was no solid evidence.
But now, Long Xiaotian understood that it was really Long Yaotian who did it. This caused killing intent to flash in Long Xiaotian's eyes.
Long Yaotian's expression also changed. "I, I was just guessing..." Even he felt that he could not explain himself. It was just that he suddenly realized that he was afraid in front of Long Xiaotian, this trash. Wouldn't this make everyone laugh in their hearts?
When he thought of this, he could not help but become angry from embarrassment and said, "Fifth Brother, you have to hand it over even if you don't want to. Even if you want to hand it over, you still have to hand it over. Quickly return the Golden Dragon Jade Pendant to me! This was given to me by Imperial Father!"
