Chapter 3244 - 3245: Nothing Is Off Limits
Moreover, those clan elders all listen to her. As long as she says it, his expulsion from the Ding Family genealogy is set in stone, an unchangeable matter.
However, how could he be willing? Even if he were expelled from the genealogy, he must obtain those medicinal herbs.
"Lin Baizhong, hand those herbs over to me, the family master. Those are mine! If you dare take what’s mine, beware that I may let you have possession but not enjoy it!"
His eyes couldn’t hide the madness as he looked at Lin Baizhong, shouting at him.
"You—"
The steward, upon hearing his words, was both infuriated and amused.
He couldn’t understand it; clearly, it was Old Madam Ding who acquired the herbs for Young Master Ding Xu. How did it become the property of Sixth Ding?
Does everything Sixth Ding desires automatically become his, even if it’s in someone else’s hands, destined to be respectfully handed over to him?
How could such logic exist in this world?
"Sixth Master, those herbs were never yours, right? They are what our family’s old mistress went through great pains to acquire for Young Master Ding Xu’s illness."
He sternly said to Sixth Ding.
"Now that Commander Lin’s daughter has cured Young Master Ding Xu, even if those herbs were indeed given to the Lin Family, they are deservedly Lin Family’s. What grounds do you have to claim those herbs as yours?"
"I clearly asked that old woman first. What right does she have to not give them to me, but instead to those wretched beings around Ding Xu who should have died long ago?"
Sixth Ding shouted at the steward, having nothing left to lose.
If he had known this would happen, he should have poisoned that old woman to death with poison pills years ago.
"You—"
Hearing his words, the steward opened his mouth but couldn’t utter a single word.
Is this person insane? Daring to insult the Old Madam. It seems the Old Madam’s decision was indeed accurate. Keeping him in the Ding Family is leading the Ding Family down a path to ruin.
After a long pause, he found his words, looking at Sixth Ding with a sneer.
"You speak well, as if it weren’t outright robbery. Just because you desire something, must others hand it over to you on your word? Sixth Master, who do you think you are, the ruler of the Illusion Continent?
Even a ruler cannot casually seize others’ things, let alone you, who is nothing but a collateral branch surviving in Sky City thanks to the Ding Family.
Oh, right, you used to be a collateral branch; you are no longer."
"You..."
Enraged, Sixth Ding raised his hand, attempting to strike the steward dead.
"You dog slave, I will kill you...ugh!"
Just as he struck, he didn’t anticipate that the spiritual energy he unleashed wouldn’t reach the steward but would be swept away by another force, hurling him to the other side of the crowd, landing heavily on the ground.
"Truly seeking trouble for no reason."
Lin Baizhong flicked his sleeve, looking coldly in the direction where Sixth Ding had been struck.
He had let Sixth Ding cause trouble, thinking someone would be unable to bear it and would come to remove him.
Who knew, no one came.
Then why keep this person causing trouble at his doorstep? While it wasn’t necessary to kill him at this time, he shouldn’t be allowed to have it easy.
