1185: Chapter 486: Shui Liancheng (2) 1185: Chapter 486: Shui Liancheng (2) Chapter 486
Both Xuanyuan Che and Dongfang Lan were utterly speechless over Shui Liancheng’s accusations, but they understood all too well the nature of the Supreme Elder of the Shui Clan.
The man was as stubborn as an ox and obstinately bull-headed; once he latched onto an idea, no amount of talking would dissuade him until he saw the matter clearly for himself—otherwise, he would not listen to reason….
Xuanyuan Che and Dongfang Lan had spent the whole morning trying to explain, and their lips were nearly worn thin!
Yet, Shui Liancheng was relentless, convinced that Mo Jiuli was connected to them and insisted on dragging the two of them to confront Mo Jiuli face to face.
If they refused, it would be an admission of guilt in his eyes….
Helpless, Xuanyuan Che and Dongfang Lan darkly followed Shui Liancheng back to Jinghua Restaurant!
They truly wished to befriend Mo Jiuli, but after this repeated harassment, they knew there was no hope left….
Now, all they wanted was to avoid making an enemy of Mo Jiuli!
At this moment, both regretted coming to Jinghua City—if only they had known….
“Speak, are you not men of the Xuanyuan and Dongfang families, sent here to deliberately harm our Eldest Lady Shui and Young Master?
Even if you refuse to tell the truth, I have ways to make you talk.
It would be wise for you to confess willingly!” Shui Liancheng said coldly after hearing their words, looking at Mo Jiuli and her companions.
“Old man, are you not completely awake, or are you just plain stupid?
Are the Xuanyuan Family and the Dongfang Family worthy of being our master?
Ask those two Young Masters if they even rank high enough to dine with us—it’s laughable to think we were sent by them…” Guyan said sarcastically while shaking his folding fan in hand, looking at Shui Liancheng.
Upon hearing these words, the crowd’s eyes flickered.
They had not forgotten how Xuanyuan Che and Dongfang Lan tried to cozy up to Mo Jiuli the previous day, only to be flatly rejected….
“Yes, just yesterday Young Master Xuanyuan and Young Master Dongfang seemed to want to chat with her, only to be turned down right away!”
“Indeed, it seems they weren’t even allowed to sit!
The faces of Young Master Xuanyuan and Young Master Dongfang were dark when they left yesterday!”
…
Many whispered among themselves, while Xuanyuan Che and Dongfang Lan looked at Guyan with mournful eyes.
Although he spoke the truth, couldn’t he have spared them a shred of dignity….
Shui Liancheng, hearing the surrounding murmurs, frowned slightly and looked at Mo Jiuli and her group with doubt.
Had he been mistaken?
Were these people really unconnected to the Xuanyuan and Dongfang families?
Who exactly were they to dare oppose the Shui Clan?
Could they be enemies of the clan?
“Who are you?” Shui Liancheng asked, looking at Mo Jiuli.
“And who are you?” Mo Jiuli retorted, raising an eyebrow at him.
“Hmph, I am Shui Liancheng, the Supreme Elder of the Shui Clan!” he declared, his title carrying significant weight across the Haotian Continent.
In his view, merely stating his name would instill fear and wariness in others!
“Oh…
don’t know you!” Mo Jiuli replied indifferently after hearing his words.
“What did you say?” Shui Liancheng, thinking he had misheard, asked subconsciously.
“Our Lady said she doesn’t know you!” Chenxiang helpfully explained.
“You…
hmph…”
“You killed our Shui Clan’s Young Master and Eldest Lady; I don’t wish to bully you.
You all should just take your own lives, and I’ll ensure your bodies are left intact,” Shui Liancheng said sternly, looking at Mo Jiuli and her companions.
“Idiot!”
Mo Jiuli rolled her eyes disdainfully and let out a cold laugh….
