Chapter 2648
2648 The picky Golden Eagle (2)
AI! This was truly a difficult choice, and if they made the wrong choice, their small family would be directly annihilated and cease to exist.
The middle-aged man had no idea that LAN lie’s words had caused some of his clansmen to change their minds. He was so angry at LAN lie’s words that he was stomping his feet.
Just as the middle-aged man was thinking of a rebuttal, Leng ruoxue’s voice suddenly rang out.
“Which one of you agrees to hand me over?” Leng ruoxue’s beautiful eyes swept across the crowd as she asked indifferently. Her voice was quite calm, and no one could make out anything from it.
The moment Leng Xiaoqing heard Leng ruoxue’s question, he became even more anxious.
“Xue ‘er, you don’t have to worry about this. Just leave it to me.” Leng Xiaoqing said hurriedly. As he spoke, he gave Leng Xiaoxiao a look.
“Yup! Xue ‘er! With us here, no one will dare to touch you. ” Leng Xiaoxiao quickly added.
“I’m just asking. Like this one said, we have to follow the public’s opinion!” Leng ruoxue looked at Leng Xiaoqing and his brother in a consoling manner, then said with a half-smile. However, the two brothers miraculously calmed down after receiving a comforting gaze from Leng ruoxue.
“That’s right, you should follow the public’s opinion,” When the middle-aged man heard Leng ruoxue’s words, he thought that she was afraid of the pressure from the crowd. He could not help but feel proud of himself. This was all his credit!
“If that’s the case, then make your choice quickly! Also, let me know who thinks that handing me over is the best way. ” Leng ruoxue replied with a smile.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he quickly turned around and said to the people behind him,””Hurry up and tell her that we all agree to do this!”
Silence! For a few minutes, no one made a sound.
“Hurry up and tell her! As long as we hand her over to Sun Tao, we’ll be safe. ” Seeing that no one responded, the middle-aged man was a little anxious. He could not understand why so many people had agreed to hand Leng ruoxue over just a moment ago. Why was everyone so silent now? If they didn’t respond, then what was the point of him acting alone?
Thinking of this, the middle-aged man was furious!
He felt that Leng ruoxue’s appearance had given everyone great pressure, causing them to not dare to express their feelings. What should he do?
The middle-aged man was very anxious. His forehead was slowly covered in cold sweat.
“What? weren’t you guys yelling and yelling happily before?” Leng ruoxue asked coldly. Are you all mute now?”
Still, no one spoke!
Those who had agreed to hand Leng ruoxue over were now in a dilemma. They had wanted to hand her over in exchange for their own safety. However, the other party’s aura was too strong, and it was so strong that they could not breathe. Hence, they were not sure if their decision was right or wrong.
“I’ll give you five minutes to think. You must make a choice.” Leng ruoxue was starting to lose her patience. She didn’t want to waste any more time with them. She deeply felt that it wasn’t worth it to waste her precious time on these people. Therefore, she decided to quickly settle everyone’s stance, so that she could decide what she should do next.
As soon as she finished speaking, LAN lie was the first to approach Leng ruoxue with a cheeky smile on his face. With a fawning expression, he said,”Xue ‘er, I have to stand on your side.”
“Do you need to thank your brother?” Leng ruoxue couldn’t help but tease LAN lie when she saw him calling himself ‘big brother’ in front of her.
“No need! No need!” LAN lie was sweating profusely. He could feel a dangerous aura. Wu…Couldn’t this girl just let him enjoy being an elder?
LAN lie was very worried!
It looked like in front of Xue ‘er, he was destined to never be able to turn things around.
Once the five minutes were up, Leng ruoxue immediately pointed at the middle-aged man and said,””You can choose now. Those who agree to hand me over, just stand behind this person. ”
Hearing this, all the major forces were still watching.
LAN lie took a look and immediately called out to the LAN family members,”The LAN family, stand on my side!”
Everyone from the LAN family looked at each other. Seeing that the old ancestor did not move, none of them dared to make a decision on their own. It was only until the old ancestor of the LAN family sighed softly that he spoke,””Follow me!”
After he finished speaking, he brought the remaining members of the LAN clan and stood between Leng ruoxue and the middle-aged man. They each took a look at each other before they stood behind the middle-aged man in shock.
Instantly, the middle-aged man was pleased.
LAN lie, the Leng family, and the other major forces were all dumbfounded. What was going on?
The LAN family’s old ancestor was speaking up for Leng ruoxue just now and looked down on a certain someone who wanted to sacrifice a woman in exchange for his own safety! Why did the LAN family’s old ancestor take the lead to go back on his word in such a short time? Especially since the LAN family’s old ancestor and young master had made different choices. Was this the rhythm of the LAN family’s division?
Everyone was puzzled. On the other hand, Leng Xiaoqing and Leng Xiaoxiao were extremely furious. As everyone knew, the Leng family and the LAN family had always had a good relationship. They were almost on the same boat. However, this time, the LAN family had slapped the Leng family in the face. Therefore, the two men’s faces turned black and white in an extremely ugly manner.
However, Leng ruoxue was extremely calm.
As the young master of the LAN family, LAN lie couldn’t stay calm at all. He shouted at the LAN family’s old ancestor in disappointment,””Old ancestor, how could you agree to hand Xue ‘er over to Sun Tao? That guy is a scumbag, he won’t let Xue ‘er off!”
When the LAN family’s old ancestor heard this, he sighed to himself, but his face was so calm that no one could tell what he was really thinking. In fact, the LAN family was also quite puzzled about this. However, since this was the decision of their ancestor, they must support it. At this moment, LAN lie’s thoughts were naturally ignored by them. Who asked LAN lie’s seniority and status to be inferior to the LAN family’s ancestor?
Seeing that the LAN family had agreed to hand Leng ruoxue over, the people who had the same thoughts but did not dare to express them no longer pretended to be invisible. They all stood behind the middle-aged man.
At this moment, other than the Leng family, her own subordinates, and LAN lie, the only one who supported her was Leng ruoxue.
Comparing the two, her side seemed a little cold and pitiful. However, when Leng ruoxue saw this situation, she became even calmer.
In the time that followed, the various forces were all extremely cautious and deep in thought before deciding on their own positions. Leng ruoxue’s side did not only consist of the Leng family, LAN lie and her subordinates. The top forces that she had thought highly of all stood on her side in the end. Other than that, the various headquarters and shadow League had also chosen to support her without exception.
What surprised Leng ruoxue was that other than the factions that had wanted to befriend her, there were also some factions with decent strength that had chosen to stand on her side. As for the middle-aged man’s side, other than the LAN family, they were all small and medium-sized forces with weak strength. Even though they seemed to have the advantage in terms of numbers, their abilities could not be compared to Leng ruoxue ‘s.
