Facing these young masters who had betrayed her, Lin Zitong had decided not to trust them anymore.
But now that her foundation is unstable and she has not really obtained the position of leader, it is too early to deal with them now.
So she nodded to a few people expressionlessly, accepting their surrender.
It's just that her attitude was too cold, which was completely different from her attitude towards Sun Tangzhi and others, which made several young masters feel cold.
But there was nothing they could do about it. It was impossible for Lin Zitong to have the same attitude towards his group of betrayers as he did towards Sun Tangzhi, a staunch supporter. This would be unfair to Sun Tangzhi and others. .
Now they only hope that Lin Zitong will not take action against them after taking over as the head of Lushan Sect, and the two sides can slowly resolve the conflict.
This is already the best result. If they choose to continue to support Lu Xin without thinking, when Lin Zitong comes to power, the only thing waiting for them will be liquidation.
The young leader stood silently behind Lin Zitong, at the end of the line, lowering his head without saying a word, willing to be a little transparent.
At this point, there was no one else around Lu Xin except a few confidants and the remnants of the Sixiang Mountain party she had brought with her.
Lu Xin asked coldly: "Is there anyone else who wants to leave?"
This time no one moved.
Those who should leave have already left.
If I had to talk about it, it would be those dignitaries invited by Lu Xin.
They didn't know whether they should leave, but it didn't seem to matter whether they left or not, because whether they supported it or not would not affect the future of the Lushan Sect at all.
Seeing Lu Xin becoming a loner step by step, Lin Zitong did not mock him, but just said:
"Lu Xin, your grandfather is my master. Although you are older than me, in terms of seniority, you still have to call me uncle. But these are not important anymore. The Lushan Sect is not something you can control at will. People's hearts are Xiang Xiang, you don’t dare to get involved in the position of leader, let alone imprison those who don’t support you.”
"For the sake of Master, I will give you a chance to release the leader of Lu Jing and others immediately. I can forget the past and let you go!"
"But if you continue to be stubborn, even if you are Master's granddaughter, I will clean up the house for Master today!"
Lin Zitong doesn't care about those little leaders, but that doesn't mean she won't care about Lu Xin.
Lu Xin locked up everyone who opposed her in the Lushan faction, cut off one of Lu Jing's fingers to threaten Lin Zitong, and even sent the Ghost King to take action against the fetus in Lin Zitong's belly!
Any one of these three things would be enough to make Lin Zitong and Lu Xin split.
The reason why he hasn't taken action yet is because Lu Jing is still in the hands of Lu Xin. Lin Zitong cannot guarantee Lu Jing's safety, for fear that Lu Xin will jump over the wall and take action against Lu Jing and others.
Faced with the conditions proposed by Lin Zitong, Lu Xin unexpectedly smiled disdainfully.
This smile made Yan Shouyi couldn't help but frown.
Now that it has come to this point, what other trump card does Lu Xin have?
Does she think she still has a chance to make a comeback?
Lin Zitong also showed a trace of seriousness.
"Even if you have outstanding talents and strong connections, so what, I have something in my hand that is worth all the cards in your hand."
Lu Xin said, slowly taking out a crumpled piece of paper from his sleeve.
She unfolded the paper, held it with one hand, and showed it in front of everyone: "I have a handwritten letter from my grandfather, who appointed me to succeed the head of the Lushan Sect!"
"What?!"
As soon as these words came out, even Lin Zitong couldn't control his emotions.
Master Lu Jingsheng has been missing for a long time, and no one knows his whereabouts.
How could Lu Jingsheng, who had been missing for a long time, write a handwritten letter to Lu Xin?
This is impossible, this is illogical!
Yan Shouyi's mind was racing and he felt that something was very strange.
Putting aside the disappearance of Lu Jingsheng, even if he had secretly contacted Lu Xin, given the importance Lu Jingsheng attached to Lin Zitong, it was impossible for him to appoint Lu Xin as the leader.
Is it just because Lu Xin is Lu Jingsheng's biological granddaughter?
But even if Lu Jingsheng wanted to protect his son, he would never condone and tolerate Lu Xin imprisoning Lu Jing in order to become the leader.
Not to mention cutting off one of Lu Jing's fingers.
Lu Xin is not only related to Lu Jingsheng by blood, but also has a personality that is completely different from Lu Jingsheng.
"Is it really, really the handwriting of Master Lu Jingsheng?" the previously rebellious young master asked with wide eyes.
Yu Luming frowned. If Lu Xin had such a thing in his hand, even if he was a heavenly master, he would not have the right to point fingers at other sects.
After all, who will succeed the leader is an internal matter within the Lushan Sect, and his appearance is nothing more than giving Lin Zitong more leverage.
You can't help Lin Zitong "seek power and usurp the throne", right?
"Show me the book." Lin Zitong took a deep breath and stretched out her hand.
Lu Xin didn't hold back and just threw the handwritten letter up. With a gentle blow, the wind brought the handwritten letter to Lin Zitong.
Lin Zitong held the handbook and read it carefully several times, frowning and remaining silent.
"How is it? Is it the handwriting of Master Lu Jingsheng?" Yan Shouyi asked with concern.
Lin Zitong whispered: "It is indeed Master's handwriting."
"this……"
Yan Shou was speechless for a moment.
Although there were ten thousand question marks in his mind and he couldn't figure out why Lu Jingsheng did what he did, the black and white words were in front of them.
Lu Xin said coldly: "Lin Zitong, even if you have 10,000 reasons, so what. As I said, who will be the leader is an internal matter of the Lushan sect. No matter how many outsiders you call, , and it has no influence on the outcome.”
The young heads who had just rebelled showed a trace of confusion in their eyes.
They didn't expect the reversal to come so quickly. They thought Lin Zitong was already a sure winner, but they didn't expect Lu Xin to drop this bombshell at the end.
Lu Jingsheng personally appointed it, who can say anything more?
Lin Zitong silently folded the calligraphy and asked in a deep voice: "Master, where is this old man? I want to see him."
"You can't see me." Lu Xin directly rejected Lin Zitong's request.
"I can't see him, can you?" Lin Zitong said, "I have something to say to him."
Lu Xin hesitated for a moment and said, "I won't be able to see him for the time being."
Han San immediately grasped the weakness in Lu Xin's words and said harshly: "It doesn't matter if we can't see the former leader. Since you are the successor appointed by the former leader, why can't you even see him? I doubt this now. You forged the sealing letter, or you threatened the former boss and forced him to write it!"
Han San's suspicion is not unreasonable. After all, Lu Xin is currently imprisoning Lu Jing, the current head of the Lushan Sect.
But Han San's words gave Lin Zitong the confidence.
She threw the handwritten letter back and said coldly: "I will not recognize this handwritten letter until I see Master."
If Lu Xin wants to be justified, she must come up with more convincing things, otherwise Lin Zitong can also forge the handwriting!
