When the Third Elder heard that the ancestor in the fusion stage wanted to talk to the ancestor, how could he dare to use this title? He thought that the face of the Nangong ancestor was very useful, but he didn't know that it also depended on the occasion.
This is all over someone else's head. Who is not giving face to whom? The third elder thinks Yuan Lianxiao is trash, but that's just because he feels good about himself. How can others follow his thoughts? It's ridiculous...
Hence, Yuan Lianxiao was led away in a daze. As for the Third Elder, the Saint Feng Patriarch was too disdainful to deal with him. Of course, it was also possible that he saw the grudge between Yuan Lianxiao and the Third Elder and kept him for his disciple to practice.
The third elder felt like he had survived a calamity, and looked at Yang Lan'er gloomily with murderous intent in his face.
Yang Lan'er disagreed and laughed wickedly: "Third Elder broke into the residence of our Qianxiang Dynasty for no reason, and you want to leave just like that?"
It's no use provoking her anyway. Yang Lan'er doesn't suggest letting herself feel better. Anyway, the Third Elder won't hate her for letting her go now.
The third elder glanced at Yang Lan'er, as if he didn't want to bother with the younger generation, and turned to leave.
"Haha, the people of Nangong family are just like this, sneaking around and attacking people without having to take responsibility?" Yang Lan'er was not polite. She swept her eyes over the people from the royal family, and the captain of the guard who was about to leave shuddered, his scalp tingling, and a chill suddenly arose from the bottom of his heart.
As expected, the onlookers who had not yet left heard Yang Lan'er sigh deeply and said faintly: "It turns out that the security in Longyun City of the Tenglong Empire is so bad. It is also quite unsafe to stay in the royal residence."
Turning her head to look at Ye Tianqi and the others who were worried, Yang Laner smiled comfortingly: "It seems that it is not safe inside or outside the game. We should be careful, lest we win the game but get killed outside the game. It would be too unfair."
Upon hearing this, everyone at the scene was stunned and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Although Yang Lan'er's words were exaggerated, they did make sense. If someone directly tried to assassinate someone today, would it be her turn tomorrow?
What if they win the game but lose their lives during the break? What's the point? Most importantly, Yang Lan'er's words reminded some people that this is an example of an assassination that was safe and sound. Facing a country with deep hatred, this is a perfect way! The guard leader's face turned black in an instant, and his facial nerves began to twitch. He could only walk towards the third elder with a serious expression: "Third elder, please!"
Originally, he thought that once Elder Shengfeng left, everything would be fine, and he just had to show up to watch the fun.
As a result, he had to take the person back now. Otherwise, with this girl's provocation, wouldn't Longyun City be in chaos in the future? The most important thing is that if the contestants were really crippled by the masters of various countries in private, what would the continental competition be? It is estimated that the Tenglong Empire will not be able to continue to gain a foothold in the Cangyan Continent.
There are five empires in the entire Cang Yan Continent, and the competition between these empires is very fierce. Although the continental competition is carried out by various countries and the sects have the mechanism to select personnel, if there is a big mistake in this matter and the sect cannot recruit people, it will be a big trouble.
You know, in the same empire, it's not just one sect that recruits people, there are countless sects, big and small, and there are also countless countries waiting to replace the empire. As the chief guard of Longyun City, does he dare to risk the world's condemnation and become a sinner of this era?
Seeing that the captain of the guard was really going to take him back, the Third Elder was really furious. Although he knew very well that the royal family would not do anything to him, at most they would just take him there, and when no one was around, they would naturally let him go.
However, the Third Elder felt that it was too embarrassing and shameful to do this in public, so he said harshly: "You dare to arrest me?"
Hearing this, Yang Lan'er smiled slightly. If she was just going to make the Third Elder lose face, why would she waste so much time talking about this? How much is face worth? She was too lazy to waste her brain cells.
However, no matter how good Yang Lan'er's plan was, it could not compare to the Third Elder's power. This sentence was simply paving a ladder for her to move up, rather than providing a step down.
Upon hearing what the Third Elder said, the Chief of Guards also got angry. Everyone knew that they were doing this for others to see, so why were they so disrespectful? Is the Nangong family that great? Yang Lan'er was expecting the Chief of Guards to lose his temper and add fuel to the fire, but she didn't expect to see a familiar figure coming over. It seemed to be the Crown Prince of the Tenglong Empire. She immediately said with a half-smile, "It's strange. You, the elder of the Nangong family, broke the law. Why don't the imperial family dare to arrest you? What do you rely on? Could it be that the Nangong family is so powerful in the Tenglong Empire? Is the royal family surnamed Long or Nangong?"
Hearing this, the Third Elder's face turned pale instantly. If this was said in private, no one would pay attention and would think that this person was just saying something jealous.
But the situation is different now. Not only are there people from the royal family here, but there are also envoys from so many countries. What would they think if they heard such heart-piercing words? Even if the royal family is not shy about the Nangong family, they have to take some action. Otherwise, what dignity does the royal family have?
For a moment, the Third Elder regretted that he had just fought for such a little face. It was simply courting death, wasn't it? Most of the people present were savvy people in the officialdom. They immediately figured out the key point. They looked at the Third Elder with sympathy and slapped Yang Lan'er deeply. This girl's words were so damn sharp that the Royal Family had to punish the Third Elder. Are the Royal Family and the Nangong Family really so close that they have no grudges at all for such things? According to the gossip that Yang Lan'er occasionally heard, the Royal Family and the Nangong Family themselves were somewhat at odds with each other.
One is the master of the empire, the other is from one of the top ten families on the continent. It would be strange if they were as close as brothers.
The strength of both sides is equal. If they fight, both sides will surely suffer losses. Moreover, both sides have their own backers and are also about the same, which maintains a delicate balance. Neither dares to act rashly for fear of being taken advantage of by others.
"Miss Yang is right. I would also like to ask the Third Elder why they can't arrest you?" Prince Tenglong joked, his eyes full of coldness.
In fact, everyone understands the little things between the royal family and the Nangong family. Although they will not fall out for the time being, it does not mean that the people of the Nangong family can do whatever they want and save face by stepping on the face of the Long family.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince..." The third elder's face turned pale, and he wished he could slap Yang Lan'er to death. But now, he didn't dare to move. He held it in, feeling a stuffy air in his chest that couldn't be released for a long time.
Yang Lan'er blinked, feeling a little uneasy.
