The prince is very cruel

"Thank you for the compliment, ancestor." Lou Xinyue acted very respectful and calm.

Then, the octogenarian looked at Guan Ning. At that moment, Guan Ning felt as if he was being scrutinized by a wise man, a feeling he had never encountered before.

The old man looked at it for a long time, which made Nie Nan nervous.

"Heroes emerge from youth."

"Nan'er, you need to study hard." Finally, the octogenarian spoke again with a gleam in his eyes. He hadn't seen a man as energetic and full of vigor as Guan Ning for a long time.

Suddenly, the whole audience was shocked!

Captain Nie wants to learn from an outsider. Is this kid really that good? Has the ancestor been deceived by his appearance?

Many people cast skeptical glances.

Guan Ning smiled dumbly: "Grandfather, you are too kind. Brother Nie is handsome, decisive, and upright. He is the hero."

The octogenarian smiled without saying a word, but his eyes grew wiser with age.

"By the way, where is the assassin?"

"where?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the entire ancestral hall suddenly became solemn.

Guan Ning clearly felt the low pressure in the atmosphere and a resentful gaze. He searched hard and finally stopped at the man sitting opposite Nie Nan.

He was also of great stature, and dressed in brocade, which was very gorgeous, but he was neither simple nor upright, and his eyes revealed the fierceness of a leopard.

Is he Long Yun?

The octogenarian stood up with the help of Nie Nan. He was very old and thin, but he was full of energy and spirit. "You two have come from afar and are guests."

"I am a descendant of Bashan and I always respect my guests."

"But something like this happened on our territory. I'm very angry, little kid. I'm going to give you an explanation today."

Just a few words made Guan Ning and Lou Xinyue admire him.

There are not many old people who don’t care about their shortcomings and are open-minded!

On the other hand, the seven major branches within Bashan each had their own thoughts and dared not speak.

"Return to the ancestors, the people are outside."

"Nie Yuan, bring him in." The ancestor said directly.

At this time, the middle-aged man sitting in the front row couldn't help but stand up: "Ancestor!"

"I think it would be better if you let me investigate this matter. Your health is not good, so you should not worry about these things." He forced a smile and bent down.

The octogenarian seemed to have seen through everything and said calmly, "I'm not senile yet."

"Long Yun, I watched you grow up. I know your personality best. Do you have anything you want to say to me?"

Suddenly, the atmosphere became even more tense and silent.

Guan Ning and Lou Xinyue looked at each other. The old ancestor was going to settle family affairs. The two of them had no say in the matter, so they stepped aside and watched the situation unfold.

Sweat dripped down Long Yun's forehead, and he gritted his teeth: "Ancestor, no!"

Hearing this, the octogenarian was not angry, but his eyes dimmed for a moment, a little disappointed. He had already given him a chance.

"Let the killer in." He spoke again, his tone much tougher.

"Yes!"

Soon, the old woman was brought in.

boom!

She fell to her knees, unable to help but look at Long Yun, her face full of horror.

"Are you from Shu?" asked the octogenarian.

"I..." the old woman stammered.

"The ancestor is asking you a question!" Nie Nan scolded.

"No, it's not." said the old woman.

The octogenarian's eyes darkened slightly. Outsider?

"Who instructed you to assassinate the distinguished guest from Bashan?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience became solemn. Long Yun's face was cold and he looked at the old woman with a threatening look.

The old woman felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles, her heart and liver were broken. She hesitated and didn't dare to speak until Guan Ning coughed. Then she came to her senses and didn't dare to look at Long Yun.

"Yes, it's Long Yun!" She gritted her teeth.

The ancestral hall was in an uproar, with everyone talking about it.

The octogenarian didn't seem surprised, but there was a strong sense of disappointment in the depths of his eyes.

"Bullshit!" Long Yun was furious and reacted quickly, falling to his knees.

"Ancestor, this is slander! This is slander!"

"I absolutely did not instruct this person. I don't even know her!"

This also made the Nie family angry, and they stood up and retorted: "Humph, the evidence is conclusive, and you are still quibbling?"
