"Miss Baili, that's not how you say it, and that's not how you settle accounts!" Nangong Liancheng looked at Baili Yin unhappily and spoke directly.
Murong Jin was a meticulous person after all. He sneered and said to Baili Mingzhe and Baili Yin:
"The teams sent by our four major families this time are roughly equal in strength. I just can't believe it. We all set out from the inner circle of the Apocalypse Mountains. Why are our other three families missing people, while your Baili family has not lost a single person?!"
While the fire was still blazing, An Yu added a handful of firewood and assisted, "We've encountered dozens of attacks from large and small monsters along the way. I wonder how many times your Baili family has encountered these attacks?
You're still here, not a single one missing. Do you have something that can help you evade attacks from monsters, or are the people sent by your Baili family simply not on the same level of strength as us?!"
An Yu's words, standing on the standpoint of the other three families, directly pointed out the two contradictions and left no room for the Baili family to defend themselves.
Either you choose to enter the Apocalypse Mountains and then start plotting against our other three families so that your Baili family can gain the greatest benefit, or the Baili family has already calculated everything at the very beginning of this secret activity and is using these three families as pawns!
Sure enough, after An Yu finished saying this, the expressions of all the people from the other two families turned ugly. They looked at Baili Mingzhe and Baili Yin with accusatory eyes, and almost asked them directly whether everything Shangguan Qingkong said was true!
A trace of obvious panic flashed across Baili Mingzhe and Baili Yin's faces, but they quickly calmed down and returned to their previous composed expressions.
"Brother Shangguan is just speculating. He has no real evidence. Why would anyone believe him?" Baili Mingzhe said with forced composure. "Everyone in the capital knows that Brother Shangguan's words can't be trusted, right?"
"What are you talking about?" Shangguan Qingkong, also known as An Yu, was immediately enraged and yelled at Baili Mingzhe, "Baili Mingzhe, what gives you the right to say that nothing I say can be trusted? You should have the courage to admit what you have done, and don't use me as an excuse!"
An Ran also sneered at this time, looking at Baili Mingzhe, and said lightly: "Could it be that my cousin has said something that is on your mind, so you have to attack my cousin personally? Master Baili, do you think I am right?"
Having said this, Baili Mingzhe had no idea what to do next. He glanced at An Ran sharply, revealing a flash of murderous intent!
An Ran naturally did not miss the murderous intent in Baili Mingzhe's eyes. She sneered in her heart, but pretended to be timid and frightened on her face, and hid behind An Yu!
"Cousin, I'm scared..."
There was no need to say anything more. An Yu glared at Baili Mingzhe and shouted angrily:
"Baili Mingzhe! What on earth do you mean? You just slandered my reputation, and now you're threatening my cousin! Isn't it just speaking your mind? A real man should take responsibility for his actions! Don't let me look down on you!"
This time, the Baili family really couldn't clear themselves from the blame even if they jumped into the Yellow River. Baili Mingzhe looked at An Yu in bewilderment. He really didn't know why the situation had developed to this point. He really couldn't argue...
"Brother Baili, the imperial capital has always rumored how gentle and elegant you are. I didn't expect you to be this kind of person. My Murong family refuses to fulfill the previous bet!" Murong Jin flicked his sleeves and took the opportunity to add insult to injury!
"My Nangong family is the same! I didn't expect that you, Baili Mingzhe, would be such a person! For the benefit of your own family, you actually slandered Shangguan Qingkong!" Nangong Liancheng followed closely behind, and said to Baili Mingzhe unwillingly to be outdone!
Seeing that the time was not ripe, An Yu snorted coldly, throwing out the last straw that broke the camel's back: "Humph, if that's the case, then let's choose a new leader! I don't want to be led by the Baili family and have me foolishly help them count the money every time they sell me out!"
"My Nangong family agrees!"
"My Murong family has no objection!"
The three families directly stated their stance, excluding the Baili family, and began to discuss the matter of re-electing a leader.
With An Yu's instigation, Murong Jin's feigned humility, and Nangong Liancheng's meaningless self-recommendation, An Ran and his group successfully pushed Murong Jin to the position of leader.
There was no other way. Among the remaining three families, An Ran and An Yu both disliked the Murong family, especially Murong Jin, so they decided that the next family to be targeted must be the Murong family!
If you want to take something, you must give it first. An Ran and the others understood this principle very well. In order to overthrow the Murong family in a natural way and make the Murong family and the Nangong and Baili families become enemies, they had to push the Murong family to a high position and then throw it down hard!
However, Murong Jin didn't know the plans of An Ran and the others yet, and he was still complacent and proud of himself for getting the leadership position!
The three families had already re-elected their chosen leaders. Baili Mingzhe and Baili Yin, feeling marginalized, had no choice but to follow the other three families. Whatever they said was the truth, they had no right to speak...
"Thank you all for your trust in me and for recommending me to be the leader of this activity. I will definitely not let you down and will work hard to lead you all to find the treasure successfully!" Murong Jin cleared his throat a few times, looked around at the people standing around him, and promised solemnly.
An Ran sneered in her heart. Murong Jin's current mentality was probably the same as when he first went to their house, very proud and complacent!
"Let's all hide now. We'll start our operation after the monster tide over there makes some movement!"
Murong Jin put on his leadership airs and spoke in a very official tone, "But everyone, please pay attention. For your safety and everyone else's, I hope you can hide better! Especially certain people. I don't want to see you causing any more trouble!"
Although Murong Jin's last sentence did not specify the target, everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to the Baili family!
Baili Mingzhe and Baili Yin's faces turned pale and red, and they were extremely embarrassed! The guards behind them also had red faces due to embarrassment!
