C254 Questioning

3I turned my head and didn't move at all. I brought Ye Zhan and Ye Shu and followed behind.     3

    

The moment we stepped out of the elevator, Wang Chao, the six great elders, also walked out. When they saw us, they couldn't help but coldly snorting in displeasure.    

    

Young Master Hwa was walking at the front, occasionally showing a flattering look as he led the way, "Come, Brother Lee, please come this way. The other six Elders are already preparing for your inauguration meeting, so they haven't appeared yet."    

    

"Yes." I turned my head to the side and glanced at Shao Wentian. I finally understood why he favored Young Master Hwa and ignored Young Master Loong. Young Master Hwa's observation skills and ability to flatter others were definitely not inferior to Zhang Hui's.    

    

Arriving at the door of a large meeting room, Young Master Hwa took the initiative to open the door and made a gesture of "please". This action of his made Shao Wentian more satisfied and he did not hide his pampering.    

    

"Lee Xianzhi , all of you come in." Shao Wentian was the first to step into the meeting room, saying, "Since you're here at Metal River, there's no need to go out. After you've been assigned a position, you can go rest.    

    

Ye Shu and I looked at each other and immediately walked in.    

    

What he saw was a large meeting room, enough to hold hundreds of people.    

    

However, in the meeting room on the stairs, there were only the six elders that he had met once before, as well as a dozen unfamiliar faces.    

    

The six elders of the old school were all elderly men with grey hair at their temples. They were at least sixty years old, but when they saw me, they stood up and couldn't help but clasp their hands in greeting.    

    

Wu Tie hastily gave a meaningful glance and the six elders turned around, pretending that they didn't know me and spoke in unison.    

    

"So this is Lee Shaobai, the famous number one fighter, Pride."    

    

"His face is like a crown jade, and his appearance is extraordinary. This is the appearance of an overlord."    

    

"Mn, not bad, not bad. Today really is a good day for our Metal River, to actually attract such a talent."    

    

"He really is a genius."    

    

"..."    

    

Following after the words of the six elders, the other Metal River members in the conference room all expressed their admiration, as if they had long been convinced by the six elders.    

    

However, their qualifications, status, and statuses in the Metal River were not as high as the elders of the six old sects. It was as if they had a stomach full of anger, and were unable to vent it out, so they could only randomly find a spot to sit.    

    

Shao Wentian took a step forward. Young Master Hwa did his duty as his son and followed closely behind him like a well-behaved child. The two of them stepped onto the stage at the same time.    

    

Shao Wentian coughed dryly, adjusted the microphone and said, "Lee Xianzhi , the few of you, find a place to sit down. There's no need to be restrained."    

    

The microphone sounded loud and echoed throughout the meeting room.    

    

Following Shao Wentian's instructions, I brought Ye Zhan and Ye Shu to sit at the front of the seats.    

    

At this moment, there were three groups of people in the meeting room.    

    

One of them was the three of us, sitting on the left front seat.    

    

The other group was a new group of six great elders led by Wang Chao. They sat at the front right side, with more than a dozen Metal River members behind them.    

    

As for the six great elders of the old sect, they were all standing firmly in the center, with more than a dozen Metal River members behind them.    

    

The three sects were sitting together, separated by a aisle, and didn't say much to each other as they waited for Shao Wentian to speak.    

    

Shao Wentian raised his hand and snapped his fingers. With a "pa da" sound, Young Master Hwa, who was behind him immediately nodded his head and opened the large projector at the back. A majestic map of China immediately appeared.    

    

The map of China was incredibly vast, but it was not the same as usual. There were flags of various colors inserted on it, as if it was a strategy map.    

    

Following that, Shao Wentian picked up the stage's laser pointer, turned on the switch, and pointed at the map of China. Infrared light immediately shone onto the location of the Yanjing and onto the red flag.    

    

Before Shao Wentian could speak, just this action alone alarmed Wang Chao who was at the right front. He stood up abruptly and said: "Sect Master, please do not, do not! Lee Shaobai has only just arrived at Metal River, how can he know our Metal River's plan?"    

    

"Wang Chao, Lee Xianzhi clearly has nothing wrong with him. Why are you always targeting him?" Shao Wentian put down the laser pointer and asked.    

    

Wang Chao looked at me from afar, separated by a group of elders and elders, and said: "I suspect that this is a scheme by Ye Family, Lee Shaobai and his two companions, perhaps it is the secret sent by Ye Family."    

    

Hearing Wang Chao's words, the entire audience cast a sidelong glance at him. Even Shao Wentian cast his gaze at him, "Lee Xianzhi , since that's the case, why don't you explain it to us personally? This way, we can avoid any suspicion."    

    

"Sure." In my heart, I knew that Shao Wentian wanted me to explain myself so that it would be effective. Besides, even though Wang Chao was targeting me, his starting point was good. After all, I have my suspicions.    

    

Wang Chao let out a cold snort. His tiger-like eyes narrowed and his expression was full of precaution as he said in a cold voice: "Since it's like this, just say it. If you don't know, don't think about leaving the Metal River's gate today."    

    

He said as he explained, "Firstly, I had to suffer different treatment at the Ye Family. If I really can't take it anymore, then I will have to leave this place immediately. You should be clear what kind of place the Langya Pavilion is.    

    

"Secondly, the two brothers surnamed Ye who have followed me here have already completely separated themselves from the Ye Family, because Ye Family is an extremely strict place. Once the people from the Langya Pavilion leave the Ye Family gate, they will never be able to return to the Ye Family again, this point, I believe everyone is well aware of right?"    

    

"If you don't believe me, you can send someone to investigate. Even if you don't, the news of me leaving the Ye Family will spread very quickly."    

    

Wang Chao's expression changed, he was unable to find any suspicious points, and immediately changed the topic. He pointed to the huge map of China and said: "But even so, you do not have the qualifications, this map is our Metal River's big plan, how can we let a brat like you know?"    

    

I instantly turned cold. If there was a reason why Wang Chao was against me before I explained, then the reason why he was still targeting me now was clearly because he couldn't maintain his face for a few consecutive times and wanted to thoroughly trample on me to regain his dignity.    

    

However, Wang Chao actually dared to talk about this map. It was simply too ridiculous.    

    

It wasn't wrong to want to get back at him, but Wang Chao was wrong. He had found the wrong person.    

    

Therefore, I slowly raised my hand, pointed at the map of China with my fingertip and sneered: "If I had said it, with just a glance, I would have known about Metal River's big plan. You … Do you believe me? "    

    

"..."
