Chapter 911: Being Duped
Li Jin’s voice echoed in the altar, but no one paid any attention.
And in the next moment, the former clan leader walked up to a bodyguard, holding a large bowl. With a small knife, she cut open the bodyguard’s wrist, and fresh, crimson blood flowed into the bowl.
In this manner, more than twenty bodyguards had their wrists slit one after another, and the sound of blood dripping into the bowl resonated in the altar, startling Li Jin. Unable to contain herself any longer, she shouted at Lin Mi, "Lin Mi, release me quickly. I only agreed to be the clan leader; I didn’t agree to be involved in these strange rituals."
Lin Mi looked at Li Jin seriously and said, "In Li Industries, each generation has two clan leaders—one male, the Yang Clan leader, and one female, the Yin Clan leader. Every Yin Clan leader must undergo a ritual. Just endure it. Once you pass through it, the family will prosper. When Li Industries returns to the Li family, it will thrive just like the family."
At this point, no matter how foolish Li Jin had been, she finally realized what was happening.
"Lin Mi, have you been deceiving me all along? Have you been helping these parasites from the side branch plot against me? Do you think that if I die, you can take possession of all my wealth? Let me tell you, it’s impossible. My parents, my uncle, and my auntie will never agree!" Li Jin angrily questioned.
Li Jin’s words instantly incited anger among the crowd.
"Side branch? Li Jin, your lineage is the sideline. We are the main branch of Li Industries!"
"Exactly, how can it be considered scheming? The assets of your side are nothing but the assets of our Li Industries. Returning to the Li family is a matter of course."
