Chapter 653 - 652: Are You Planning to Have a Showdown with Me?
Master Lin’s complexion became even more uncomfortable. He took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Master Su, there were many reasons for what happened back then. When the Lin Family made decisions, it wasn’t to flatter anyone, it was just to uphold justice, and the Lin Family won’t live in humiliation!"
"Is that right?" Su Yang replied with a light smile, "So, Master Lin believes that what the Lin Family did back then was correct?"
Master Lin, stiff necked, said, "I don’t think the Lin Family did anything wrong. It was his fault in the first place, and punishing him was the right thing to do!"
"Is that right?" Su Yang turned to Patriarch Cheng and said with a faint smile, "Patriarch Cheng, who do you think was at fault for the incident back then, Lin Zhenshan or the Cheng Family?"
Patriarch Cheng looked embarrassed, and finally sighed, "For that matter, the Cheng Family acted too harshly. All things considered, it was indeed our fault!"
Su Yang stood up straight and said softly, "What is going on here? The Cheng Family has a feud with Lin Zhenshan, and they themselves think it was their fault. Yet the Lin Family, who should have been Lin Zhenshan’s biggest support, the Lin Family full of Lin Zhenshan’s relatives, thinks it was Lin Zhenshan’s fault. Not only do they not avenge Lin Zhenshan or defend him, they also punish Lin Zhenshan. What kind of reasoning is this?"
The scene erupted into commotion, and even the heads of the Ten Great Families cast disdainful looks at Master Lin.
Master Lin’s face looked extremely ugly. Patriarch Cheng’s words had essentially driven his family into a dead end. Now, even he had no way to argue.
Su Yang once again asked, "Master Lin, please explain this matter. How does the Lin Family view this incident, to think that Lin Zhenshan was at fault and to punish him?"
