The expert from the Lin Family gave a dry laugh. Seeing nobody speaking, he continued, "Dean Qin, don't listen to the slander of petty people. We are all allies; how could we possibly have any ill thoughts toward the Tianyi Branch?"
"Allies."
Qin Hao softly uttered these two words, then smiled and said, "Hearing those two words from your mouth is truly ironic. If you really considered yourselves allies of the Tianyi Branch, you wouldn't have done such a thing."
The Lin Family expert's expression turned solemn as he earnestly said, "Dean Qin, you are in the wrong here. Since we are allies, you should trust us."
"What if I don't trust you?" Qin Hao retorted.
"Then we have no choice but to leave. After all, you are our ally; even if you don't trust us, we cannot blame you, since we are allies."
The Lin Family expert had a righteous demeanor, which made the others almost bulge their eyes out in disbelief.
