Lin Yi couldn't hear Wang shiqing's begging since he was trapped in the formation.
In his current situation, he couldn't care about what was happening outside.
This great cloud formation was indeed many times more terrifying than the cloud sky formation. The probing of divine senses seemed to be unhindered, but it was simply unable to penetrate the thick fog.
Even the ghostly thing couldn't break the cloud formation. If he could break it with one look, he wouldn't have been so lazy to return to the Jade space.
One could imagine that the third elder had really brought out his trump card this time.
Outside, the third elder rested for a long time, and his pale face gradually regained some color.
"Third Grandpa, are you alright?"
The Wang family disciple asked the third elder about his condition with concern. After all, the third elder had just used the cloud formation and had used up a huge amount of energy. His body would definitely not be able to take it.
Furthermore, the third elder was the current head of the Wang family.
If something went wrong, the Wang family would be in turmoil, or the Wang family hadn't stabilized from the change of power. When the third elder fell, Wang dingtian's side might fight back immediately!
These people were all relying on third elder. They were not confident to fight against Wang dingtian's side without third elder.
"It's alright." The third elder waved his hand indifferently."It's just a cloud formation. I can still take it."
"Then, third Grandpa, what should we do with Wang shiqing?"
A young woman from the Wang family asked anxiously. She had never liked Wang shiqing's attitude as a young lady. As a young lady from the collateral branch, she had always been envious of Wang shiqing from the direct line. Now, the tables had finally turned.
She couldn't wait for Wang shiqing to be driven out of the Wang family, or even killed!
The third elder looked at Wang shiqing, cleared his throat, and said,""Little Qing, don't blame third Grandpa for not giving you face. You saw the losses that Lin guy caused when he trespassed into the Wang family. Third Grandpa has to give the Wang family an explanation!"
Wang shiqing furrowed her brows. They were both thousand-year-old foxes, and there wasn't much difference between an old fox and a young fox. How could she not see through the third elder's thoughts?
Now that his father's whereabouts were unknown, this group of people clearly didn't care about him, the heir. No, he was no longer the heir. The heir of the Wang family was the grandson of the third elder!
The previous house arrest was most likely done by his third grandfather.
As for the purpose, it was obvious. He wanted to usurp the throne and get rid of obstacles like himself and his father.
Wang shiqing was well aware of this situation, and she didn't have a good impression of the Wang family or her third Grandpa.
Bloodline and kinship meant nothing in front of power! Since ancient times, had there been less quarrels between brothers over power and benefits? In the end, the Wang family could not escape this circle.
Wang shiqing's face turned cold,"third Grandpa, you can do whatever you want to me. But Lin Yi bro has nothing to do with this. Please let him go. As long as you let him go, I'll leave the Wang family of my own will."
"Hmph, you think that you'll be fine after leaving the Wang clan? You've caused so much harm to the Wang family, we won't let you off so easily!"
The young woman spoke again. She had been jealous of Wang shiqing for a long time, so she wouldn't let go of any opportunity to hit her when she was down. Her words ignited the fire in everyone's hearts.
Those young men chimed in one after another. It was obvious that they wouldn't stop until Wang shiqing was dead. They were all on the third elder's side, and their status in the Wang family would rise with the third elder's power. Only by killing Wang shiqing, the original successor, could they avoid future trouble.
If he wanted to take over the Wang family, the safest way was to exterminate all of Wang dingtian's people!
As for the third elder, he didn't say anything at this moment. His old face had an unfathomable smile on it as he quietly listened to everyone's thoughts.
He had only planned to put Wang shiqing under house arrest and not let her get involved in the Wang family's Affairs.
However, house arrest didn't work on her. She didn't know where Lin Yi came from, but he almost took her away. If Wang shiqing got away, he would gather Wang dingtian's clansmen and start an internal war.
This wasn't the ending that the third elder wanted. Only by retaining most of the Wang family's strength could he have any value in the center. The center most likely wouldn't be interested in a broken Wang family!
Hmm, it seems that Wang shiqing can't be kept alive!
The third elder had already made up his mind. Killing intent flashed in his eyes as he slowly said,""Xiao Qing, as you can see, everyone has a grudge against you. As the head of the Wang family, it would be really unsatisfactory if third Grandpa can't give everyone a satisfactory explanation!"
"Then what do you want Xiao Qing to do, third Grandpa? What will Xiao Qing do for you to let Lin Yi bro go?"
Wang shiqing's heart turned cold as she sensed the third elder's killing intent. The fact that the Wang family wanted to exterminate her made her feel like a knife was being twisted in her heart.
However, she had to save Lin Yi's big brother first, so she continued to play dumb, trying to numb the elders.
She made herself look weak and harmless-at least she'd be able to buy some time for Lin Yi to break the formation.
Wang shiqing couldn't tell Lin Yi everything she knew, but she still believed in Lin Yi's strength. As long as he had time, he would be able to get out!
Without waiting for the third elder to speak, the young woman said with a fake smile,""Sister shiqing, we're not trying to force you to your death. You've caused everyone to be in such a miserable state. You have to give us a satisfactory explanation, right?"
Wang shiqing frowned. She knew what this woman and the others were trying to do.
Biting his thin lips lightly, his eyes welled up with tears as he nodded his head vigorously."Okay, third Grandpa, as long as you let Lin Yi bro go, I'm willing to die to atone for my sins!"
It was still a plan to buy time, but it contained her sincerity. If she could use her life to exchange for Lin Yi's safety, she could accept it!
The accumulated water mist quickly turned into tears and gushed out. From the others 'point of view, it looked like Wang shiqing had failed to live up to her expectations and was crying. She was trying to use her life to exchange for her lover's life. She was really stupid.
The third elder knew that Wang shiqing wasn't afraid of death, but she was bitterly disappointed by the actions of the Wang family!
But so what? Since ancient times, which throne was not made of blood?
"Little Qing, this is not third Grandpa forcing you to die, why are you doing this? We're a family, there's no need to do such a stupid thing for an outsider!"
The third elder pretended to be in a difficult position and sighed repeatedly. Even though he wanted Wang shiqing to die as soon as possible, he still had to do it for the sake of his face.
It was a good example to prevent any future disasters for the Wang family!
