As soon as Lan Chaohai finished speaking, all the guests were stunned.
Lan Chaohai, what is he talking about?
Isn’t the Saint of Tianlou Li Xufeng’s daughter?
While they were in disbelief, they couldn't help but smell a strong smell of melon.
There was a loud bang in Ruan Youning's brain.
In Kong Mangmang's mind, there was only one thought: her identity had been revealed, and everyone knew that she was fake.
A feeling of despair and helplessness hit her. Ruan Youning stood there with a pale face, unable to think of any rebuttal.
In a trance, she seemed to be able to feel the various gazes cast at her by the people around her.
There was surprise, scrutiny, watching the show, and gloating...
Elder Lan and Elder Yao could not help but close their eyes in despair. It was over, all over.
The secret they tried so hard to hide could no longer be hidden.
The most terrifying thing is, if this matter reaches the ears of the person who has been in seclusion...
When they thought of the unimaginable consequences, they shuddered.
They couldn't help but look towards the culprit.
If it weren't for her, if it weren't for her...
The culprit, Li Jinyan, was actually the calmest.
She looked at Elder Lan dimly: "I haven't seen him for over twenty years. I didn't expect that the moment Elder Lan Qi appeared, he would deny the old master's daughter."
"By doing this, Elder Lan Qi, aren't you afraid of the bloodline in your body being suppressed?
Or did Elder Lan Qi find a way to solve the bloodline suppression during the twenty years that he disappeared?
That's why you dare to deny Youning's identity. If you do this, wouldn't Sister Xufeng be sad if she knew about it?"
Everyone in Tianlou was shocked. Although Li Jinyan's statement was a bit far-fetched, who could tell the truth without evidence?
For a moment, they all had complicated expressions. This Li Jinyan was really cunning.
She spoke with such sincerity that for a moment, everyone around her suddenly understood.
"Could it be that Elder Lan Qi has truly broken free from the suppression of the Li family's direct bloodline?"
Among the guests, someone couldn't help but whisper something.
Mr. Chu Sanye also looked at Lan Chaohai, his eyes full of disbelief.
He said that the Seventh Elder's reaction to You Ning was wrong. It turned out...it turned out to be...
"Seventh Elder, are you really no longer suppressed by the Li family's direct bloodline?"
He asked softly and lightly, feeling completely at a loss.
Apart from this reason, he couldn't think of any other reason why Lan Chaohai didn't recognize Ruan Youning.
The Lan family has been suppressed by the direct descendants of the Li family for generations. Now that Lan Chaohai is free, what reason does he have to continue to be loyal?
But even if he is not loyal, there is no need to deny Youning's identity, right?
Li Jinyan looked sad, "Seventh Elder, I know that the Lan family was wiped out because of Sister Xufeng, and Youning never forgets this incident.
I know you hate it, but please don’t take your anger out on Youning, okay?
The child is innocent. I personally raised her. Although she is not my biological child, the grace of raising her is greater than the grace of giving birth to her. I have long regarded her as my own."
"Seventh Elder, even if you have a grudge against Sister Xufeng, please don't target Youning, okay?"
She spoke with such sincerity that tears rolled down her cheeks.
"I never imagined that meeting the Lan family again would be like this..."
Ruan Youning finally came back to her senses. When she saw the situation had reversed, her eyes immediately turned red.
"Elder Lan Qi... I'm sorry, I apologize to you on behalf of my mother!"
As she spoke, she suddenly bowed deeply.
"It's because of my mother that the Lan family was wiped out. I can understand why you hate me.
I feel very bad too. Over the years, I have been trying to find the murderer who killed the Lan family and help my mother atone for her sins.
It’s just that I’m still too young and my abilities are limited, so there haven’t been any results… I’m sorry.”
"Silly child, this isn't your fault. How can you be blamed for the troubles caused by the previous generation?"
Li Jinyan touched Ruan Youning's head tenderly.
Their acting was tear-jerking.
All the guests were stunned.
They looked at Ruan Youning for a while, then at Lan Chaohai.
But obviously, they still believe more in the image of Ruan Youning, which they have been operating for more than 20 years.
"The Saint of Tianlou is indeed the daughter of Li Xufeng and that person. In order to raise this little Saint, Li Jinyan risked being questioned by everyone and married that person herself."
"Yes, and with that person who has been in seclusion all the time, Li Jinyan has been both a father and a mother over the years, raising the little saint girl, which can be considered a credit."
"So, there's no need to question the identity of the little saint. On the contrary, it's Elder Lan Qi... He disappeared for over twenty years, and now he's back again. I don't know what his plans are."
"Well, it's normal for a person's character to change after experiencing the drastic change of having his family wiped out.
Moreover, he is no longer suppressed by the bloodline of his former master. This time, the first to rebel will naturally be the bloodline of his former master."
"We can't say Elder Lan Qi is wrong. The Lan family was wronged in the past, and the root cause was Li Xufeng.
Lan Chaohai's actions are understandable."
However, the person involved, Lan Chaohai, stood straight with an unchanged expression.
He looked coldly at Li Jinyan and Ruan Youning, who were both good at singing and writing.
He said, "Everyone, who do you think our Lan family is? Our Lan family will never betray our master for eternity."
Everyone was stunned and looked at him.
Li Jinyan's eyes flashed, not giving him a chance to refute: "Elder Lan Qi, we believe you. Youning is weak, and I understand that you don't want to recognize her anymore."
Lan Chaohai smiled faintly, "Young Master, of course I will acknowledge him. He is the only bloodline left by our master, the only direct descendant of the Li clan to whom my Lan family has been loyal for generations. Even if my entire clan were wiped out, I would never deny his recognition."
