Although Long Pinghai knew that his father was a man who could not tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes, he never expected that the other party would help outsiders to deal with him, his own son!
When he was escorted to the front hall and forced to kneel in front of so many people, Long Pinghai felt extremely humiliated.
He wanted to say something, but after seeing that the Blood Demon Ancestor, whose cultivation had been sealed, was kneeling beside him, Long Pinghai knew that it was useless for him to say anything.
"Everyone, my father asked you to come here today because of a case of collusion between a traitor within our family and an evil cultivator. We in the Long family have always been brave enough to take responsibility for our actions. If there is a traitor within our family, we will never shield him."
"We have invited you all here today to observe and prove the innocence of our Long family. If you hear about this matter in the future, please testify for our Long family. We have never colluded with evil cultivators. It is just that we have unfilial descendants who have tarnished the glorious name of our ancestors."
Seeing that most people had arrived, City Lord Long bowed to everyone and explained the reason for inviting them.
These people were already frightened by the scene before them, and when they heard that evil cultivators were involved in this matter, they were even more surprised.
After hearing what City Lord Long said, they naturally understood what had happened.
On the one hand, they lamented that the Long family had such a misfortune in producing such a descendant. On the other hand, they could not help but admire the uprightness of the old City Lord Long, who was worthy of being the one who could defend the Falling Dragon City.
Everyone agreed, saying that they knew that the Long family all had righteous intentions and would never misunderstand this.
After hearing these people's responses, City Lord Long finally felt relieved and began to interrogate his son and grandson.
Things have turned out like this today, and both Long Pinghai and Long Yuchun know that they have reached the end of the road.
But Long Pinghai was too lazy to struggle, while Long Yuchun still wanted to beg for mercy from his grandfather.
So Long Yuchun answered whatever the old city lord Long asked.
He spilled everything he knew: "Grandfather, please don't kill us! This was all forced upon us by that evil cultivator! He was the one who bewitched my father first, and then my father wanted me to improve my cultivation, which is how I fell into this evil cultivator's trap!"
"Grandfather, although we know this evil cultivator, we have never done anything to harm the cultivation world. Dad and I are truly innocent!"
"Ha!" A strange sneer suddenly emanated from the silent Blood Demon Ancestor beside him. "My dear disciple, didn't you send several human sacrifices as a tribute to Master a few days ago? How come you've changed so much in just a few days?"
"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense. I have nothing to do with you!" Long Yuchun's pupils trembled and his whole body was shaking.
But if the Blood Demon Ancestor could listen to him, then there would be something fishy.
"Don't make you sound so innocent. I was being hunted by the Qingxiao Sect. If you hadn't helped me hide me in the City Lord's Mansion, I would have been caught long ago. If there was no relationship between us, why would you be so kind as to help me?"
"My dear disciple, just admit it. We are in the same group. Otherwise, where did you get the Phoenix Blood Stone statue you gave to your grandfather?"
After being reminded by the Blood Demon Ancestor, City Lord Long recalled that Princess Luo had mentioned to him before that the Phoenix Blood Stone statue that he loved so much was carved with the Phoenix Blood Stone brought by this evil cultivator.
Thinking of this, City Lord Long curled his lips and showed a look of disgust on his face.
He angrily ordered the housekeeper, "Quickly take the Phoenix Blood Stone statue from my room and return it to this evil cultivator!"
The housekeeper hurried to do it after hearing the order, fearing that there was something wrong with the statue. After all, it was made by evil cultivators, so who knew what tricks they would play?
The statue was delivered quickly and placed directly in front of the Blood Demon Ancestor.
Things had gotten to this point, and City Lord Long was too lazy to ask any further questions. He pointed at Long Pinghai and his son and said, "I know you two are heartless. You only care about your own pleasure and don't care about your father and brothers at all. Since you don't care about kinship, then I have nothing more to say."
He waved his hand at the housekeeper and said, "Take these two ruthless people and lock them up. Then remove them from the family tree! From now on, these two people will have nothing to do with our Long family!"
After hearing the decision of City Lord Long, Long Yuchun seemed to lose all his spirit. He collapsed to the ground in an instant, not knowing how to react for a moment.
As for Long Pinghai, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the old City Lord Long with resentment in his eyes: "Father, how can you be so cruel? Your son just did one wrong thing, and you want to drive us out of the City Lord's Mansion. You don't even care about our kinship?"
"You scolded me for neglecting my family, but do you care about me at all? We are all your sons, but you never see me. You only know my eldest brother and my younger brothers. If it weren't for the help of the Blood Demon Ancestor, Yuchun and I would probably have forgotten that we even existed!"
Long Pinghai, who had been silent, seemed to have finally lost his patience and spoke to the old city lord Long.
He felt that he had been wronged for many years and had been ignored by his father, so he would cooperate with the Blood Demon Ancestor at all costs just to gain a foothold in the City Lord's Mansion.
But after hearing Long Pinghai's words, the old City Lord Long was so angry that he covered his chest with his hands, his face red. "What are you thinking about all day, you idiot? I'm busy practicing and dealing with the affairs of the mansion every day. Let alone you, I only see the other children a few times a year. How come they don't feel that I'm neglecting them?"
"Besides, how could I have ignored you? You and your son may not be good at anything else, but you are good at spending money. I pay for the millions of spirit stones spent every year. If I didn't love you, I would have kicked you out of the City Lord's Mansion long ago and left you to starve!"
The old city lord became angrier and angrier as he scolded his son. He believed that his son was the most profligate spender among all his other descendants. The two of them spent more in a year than the rest of them combined.
But the old city lord never scolded them and even used his own private money to subsidize them.
So just because he doesn't see the children often, it means he's treating Long Pinghai harshly and being mean to them?
"I finally understand why you and your son have become what you are today. It seems that it's not that I didn't teach you well, but that you are bad from the root!"
City Lord Long waved his hand and said, "If you feel I've wronged you, then I have nothing to say. After all, you have no destiny with our Long family! Boss, go get the family tree, and I'll personally cross them both out!"
With the insistence of the old city lord, the Long family tree was finally taken out.
In front of Long Pinghai and his son and other guests present, the old city lord Long simply crossed out the names of Long Pinghai and his son.
The moment he saw his name being erased, Long Pinghai collapsed to the ground. He regretted it. He vaguely realized that he had made the most wrong move, but it was meaningless to say it now.
He is no longer a member of the Long family, and in the future he will be charged with the crime of colluding with evil cultivators, and he will never be able to turn things around.
