The Second Elder gritted his teeth. He couldn't allow the clan to use the Soul Searching Technique on that person. He originally had some suspicion that Bai Ruozhu was bluffing him, but since the Bai family hadn't been poisoned by the Mandala Flower Powder, perhaps they had already taken precautions.
He was indeed careless.
"My body is fine, and the clan's affairs need someone to oversee them. We certainly cannot allow certain people to harm our clan members," the Second Elder said through gritted teeth, implying that Bai Ruozhu and his family shouldn't harm "innocent" people. Unfortunately, the Third Elder seized upon this statement, sneering, "The Second Elder is right; we cannot allow anyone to poison my two children. Are they not members of the Jiuli?"
