âWhat right does she have to be related to you?â The master of the ning family asked with a cold smile.
âThe old ancestor belongs to our ning family. Sheâs just an outsider. What right does she have to be the old ancestorâs goddaughter?â Ning Xi âer said unhappily.
At this time, Ning Yuan, who was sitting at the main table, felt like dying after hearing Ning Xi âerâs words. However, he hated his niece even more for not knowing what was good for her. She actually dared to question the old ancestor in public. Wasnât she looking for trouble for herself? If she were to anger the old ancestor because of this, even he would not be able to save her!
âWhether I have the right or not is up to me, not you!â The master of the ning family suppressed the anger in his heart and said,â Was this brainless descendant really from the ning family? The ning familyâs face had been completely lost by her. Great, now the great elder had another excuse to laugh at him.
âForefather, Iâm also doing this for the good of the family. Our ning family is one of the eight great divine regions. Not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can be associated with our ning family.â Ning Xi âer said very seriously.
âWell said! The ning family is amazing to have a descendant like you! Youâre even interfering with your own ancestor. â At this moment, the first elder said with a smile.
âWho are you? Our ning familyâs matters donât need an outsider like you to interfere. â Ning Xi âer glared at the first elder, her beautiful face full of displeasure.
âAlright! Iâm an outsider! Iâll shut up!â The great elder said helplessly. However, he was in a good mood. He also wanted to see how old man ning planned to deal with this meddlesome descendant.
âForefather, isnât there a family gathering today? Why are these random people here?â Ning Xi âer continued to question the first elder when she saw that he had stopped talking.
âGreat elder, we seem to have come to the wrong place.â After hearing Ning Xi âerâs words, Leng ruoxue chuckled as she spoke to the first elder.
âMm! Why donât we leave this place?â First elder suggested with a smile.
âNone of you are allowed to leave!â Hearing the conversation between the two, the master of the ning family couldnât bear it anymore and roared.
âGodfather! Calm down, the great elder and I just didnât want to make things difficult for you. â Leng ruoxue consoled him with a smile.
âMMH! We donât want to make things difficult for you!â The great elder nodded in agreement.
Rolling his eyes at the gloating first elder, the master of the ning family turned to Ning Xi âer. âIâll give you two choices. Either you sit down obediently, or you leave this place immediately!â
âXi âer! Hurry up and sit down!â When Ning Yuan heard the old ancestorâs words, he quickly growled in a low voice. At the same time, he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and thought to himself,âfortunately, the old ancestor did not blame Xiâ er!â Otherwise, the consequences would be hard to deal with.
Now, he only hoped that Xi âer would be more sensible and not offend the old ancestor.
Actually, it wasnât that the master of the ning family didnât blame Ning Xi âer, but with his status, he couldnât be bothered to argue with a junior. Thus, he left this opportunity to Leng ruoxue. However, up until now, Leng ruoxue had no intention of making a move.
Ning Xi âer had to listen to Ning Yuanâs words. In fact, she didnât mean to annoy the old ancestor. It was just that when she saw the old ancestor introduce the woman she hated to the clan so seriously, she was madly jealous. That was why she had lost her composure in front of the old ancestor.
Seeing that Ning Xi âer had sat down obediently, the first elder smiled and said in surprise,ââIt seems that the substitute Masterâs words are more effective than yours!â
When Ning Yuan heard this, he was so scared that he knelt on the ground and said,ââOld ancestor, Xi âer has always been very obedient. She, she didnât mean it. Please forgive her this time!â
âHmph!â The master of the ning family snorted and ignored Ning Yuan.
âActing clan head! If Godfather wanted to argue with miss Wu, would he still give her two choices? Right! Godfather!â Leng ruoxue raised her head and asked with an innocent look.
âXue âer! This banquet was specially organized for you, so weâll ignore those irrelevant people for now. If thereâs anything else, weâll talk after the banquet. â The master of the ning family said indifferently. From the meaning of his words, it seemed that he still wanted to settle the accounts after autumn.
When Leng ruoxue heard this, she laughed nonchalantly,ââGodfather! Fifth miss is also doing this for the good of the ning family, please donât be angry with her!â
Hearing Leng ruoxue plead for fifth miss, master ning smiled indifferently. However, before he could speak, fifth miss ning could not help but shout,ââWho needs your fake kindness!â
As soon as she said this, Ning Yuan felt cold sweat dripping down his body. He secretly raised his eyes and looked at his old ancestor, but he did not dare to say a word.
No one could figure out his ancestorâs temper until now. Logically speaking, if it were another familyâs ancestor, they would have already punished Xi âer with the Family Law for what he had done. However, his ancestor did not have much of a reaction and allowed Xiâ er to cause trouble. Moreover, the ancestor did not say anything, and he did not dare to be presumptuous in front of the ancestor. Therefore, he could only be anxious.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Unfortunately, no matter how many looks he gave Xi âer, his niece was unmoved. Although he was angry, there was nothing he could do. Although he was the acting head of the family, with the old ancestor around, there was no room for him to speak.
âLittle girl! I donât appreciate it!â The master of the ning family didnât say anything, but the great elder spoke up, hoping that the world would be in chaos.
Ning Yuan was extremely depressed when he heard the first elderâs words. However, he did not dare to reprimand the old man. After all, the old manâs seniority and status were above his!
âIt doesnât matter!â Leng ruoxue said nonchalantly, her beautiful eyes looking at Ning Xi âer with a faint smile.
Ning Xi âer was flustered by Leng ruoxueâs stare. In a moment of desperation, she shouted,ââI want to challenge you!â
As soon as she said this, everyone was stunned, and they looked at Ning Xi âer in disbelief.
Ugh! Did they hear wrong? How did it become a challenge? However, many people still thought that Ning Xi âer had gone mad. Otherwise, why would she challenge Leng ruoxue?
âBig brother! Fifth young lady wants to challenge big sister ruoxue. What should we do?â Ning Shan, who was sitting in an inconspicuous position, asked softly with a worried look. According to the rules of the ning family, everyone had the right to challenge and also the right to reject. However, if one rejected someoneâs challenge, it would be regarded as a sign of cowardice and would be looked down upon. Although he had not known Leng ruoxue for long, he did not want her to be looked down upon.
âDonât worry, our ancestor is still here!â Ning Hai replied with a smile. He wasnât worried about the fifth young ladyâs challenge at all because her strength wasnât on the same level as ruoxue âs. If the weaker party challenged the stronger party and the stronger party didnât agree, they would definitely be looked down upon. However, the current situation was the exact opposite. The fifth young lady was a deity while ruoxue was only a mid-stage deity. Even if ruoxue refused, no one could say anything. Not to mention, she still had the old ancestorâs support!
