Chapter 90: Is the Punishment Enough?
Lin Kongtong trembled.
Since Lin Xiao said that he had watched the whole process, Lin Kongtong understood that there was absolutely no way that he could confuse right and wrong and throw dirty water on Chu Yan.
Lin Xiao has never shown up before, so there must be his reasons.
So to a certain extent, it was Lin Kongtong's behavior that forced Lin Xiao to show up.
This forced appearance may very well ruin one of Lin Xiao's plans.
When he thought of this, Lin Kongtong's face became even more ugly. He felt as if the blood all over his body had frozen and his hands and feet became cold.
If it had been in the past, relying on his realm and status, he might still be able to have nothing to fear.
But now, Lin Xiao has returned and has reached the second level of Pulse Condensation Realm. He, Lin Kongtong, is so high that he doesn’t know where he is.
If he was still ignorant at this moment and Lin Xiao killed him, he might not even have a chance to fight back.
Lin Xiao clearly ignored Lin Kongtong on purpose at this moment. After looking around for a week, he praised Lin Miaoran a few more times.
Obviously, Lin Miaoran's unexpected promotion really made Lin Xiao very happy.
For all Lin family members, today is definitely an exciting day.
The elder has successfully been promoted and returned, and the eldest lady has also been promoted to the Pulse Condensation Realm. Today is definitely worth recording in the history of the Lin family for future generations to remember.
The happier the Lin family members are at this moment, the more it highlights the loneliness of Lin Kongtong, Lin Chongzhi and Lin Ao.
Lin Kongtong stood in the ring, and Lin Xiao never said a word to him from beginning to end, but the more this happened, the more he felt like there was a thorn in his back.
Lin Chongzhi's face was ashen and he collapsed on the ground. His left shoulder collapsed. He could not speak at this moment. Talking would involve the wound, and the pain was so painful that he almost fainted.
Lin Ao had woken up once before when Lin Kongtong was about to kill Chu Yan. His eyes flashed with excitement at that time, but when he heard that Lin Miaoran had been promoted to the Pulse Condensation Realm, he immediately raised his head and spat out a blood arrow.
, fainted again.
"The rankings for today's trials should be announced by now." After a while, Lin Xiao said.
Suddenly, the scene became quiet.
Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Chu Yan.
The most satisfying and amazing person today is Chu Yan.
"You deserve first place." Lin Xiao reached out and patted Chu Yan on the shoulder.
Chu Yan smiled, but where others couldn't see it, he bared his teeth: "There's no need to use so much force in patting on the shoulder."
"According to the previous rules, the top two clan members in this clan test can represent the clan and participate in the competition in Changqing Town one and a half months later. These two places are Chu Yan and Lin Ao. Although today Lin Ao
He suffered a small injury, but it should be no big deal." Lin Xiao glanced at Lin Chongzhi with a faint gaze.
Lin Chongzhi was injured, and when Lin Xiao turned a blind eye, he had something on his mind, so he didn't dare to say anything. He could only nod in pain: "I will urge him to practice harder."
"As for you, Lin Shan and others." Lin Xiao snorted coldly.
This snort immediately made Lin Chongzhi feel weak and almost fall down.
"You are ignoring the rules and damaging the reputation of our Lin family. In this case, I will fine you half a year's salary. In addition, your original positions will be vacated first. After half a year, if your performance is okay, you can still
Go back, if it doesn't work, others will take the lead." Lin Xiao said.
This punishment made Lin Chongzhi and others feel heartbroken.
Especially Lin Chongzhi and Lin Shan. One of them is the deputy clan leader and the other is the family tutor. They are both lucrative jobs.
But now, Lin Xiao won it with just one word.
But they couldn't say anything yet, so they could only grit their teeth and accept.
"Lin Kongtong, forget those juniors who are fooling around. You are following behind. This really makes me a little disappointed." Lin Xiao looked towards Lin Kongtong.
Lin Kongtong was full of resentment in his heart, but he did not dare to show it on his face. He could only cup his hands and say: "It is true that I didn't consider this matter well, but at the time I only thought about the children of the family. Please understand, Grand Elder."
"For the sake of the family's children, do you plan to make a grudge against an inscription master?" Lin Xiao sneered.
"Chu Yan has not reached the Pulse Condensation Realm, so he is not considered an inscription master." Lin Kongtong gritted his teeth and said.
"What about Master Li He?" Lin Xiao said.
In an instant, Lin Kongtong's face turned pale, and cold sweat dripped down his back.
He had just been focused on killing Chu Yan, but he had forgotten that behind Chu Yan stood Li He, the only inscription master in Changqing Town.
"I, I didn't think well, so I asked the elder to punish me." This time, Lin Kongtong had to admit it.
If Master Li He is really displeased, the Lin family will not be able to gain a foothold in Changqing Town based on his status and reputation. The other families in the town will not mind suppressing the Lin family to please Master Li He.
.
"It seems that you are not an old fool." Lin Xiao snorted coldly, "Since you asked for punishment yourself, then this is fine. You ignored the majesty of the patriarch and almost caused trouble for the family. If you continue to sit in the position of elder,
I'm afraid others are not convinced either, so you should step down first. The original position of your family elder will be filled by someone else selected by the clan leader and the Council of Elders.
As for you, just think about it behind closed doors for a year, pay a salary penalty for a year, and after one year, your next position will be decided based on your performance." Lin Xiao said coldly.
Lin Kongtong's face turned pale, but he did not dare to refute. He cupped his hands, stood aside, and stopped talking.
As for the other members of the Lin family, after experiencing the previous excitement and excitement, they saw Lin Xiao reshuffling the top management of the Lin family in a few words. Feeling the chilling atmosphere, everyone suddenly felt
He was as silent as a cicada, not even daring to take a breath.
"Chu Yan, are you satisfied with these decisions?" At this time, Lin Xiao asked.
Originally, these were all family affairs of the Lin family, so Chu Yan did not expect that Lin Xiao would suddenly ask for his opinion.
But soon, he reacted.
Originally, these punishments were supposed to be carried out internally by the Lin family, but now they were done in front of him in the hope that he would see them so as to appease him.
If Chu Yan could tell himself, this punishment was far from enough.
After all, Lin Ao, Lin Chongzhi, Lin Kongtong and others had planned to kill him just now.
However, as the patriarch of a family, Lin Xiao naturally needs to consider the entire family. If he really kills these people, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the family.
This kind of consequence is not something that Lin Xiao, Lin Chongtian, or other elders present want to see or happen.
"Everything is decided by Grandpa Lin." Chu Yanyi cupped his hands and said.
"Haha, your grandpa already screamed, so I should show some expression." Lin Xiao laughed, reached into his arms, and threw something towards Chu Yan, "Then, this is what I gave to you.
