Huge conspiracy!

"Jing Kuang, as your father-in-law, it's quite unfair of you to not allow me to stay in the Lan family."

Yue Taotian's face was filled with displeasure. Despite the hardships their Yue family had encountered, the actions of the Lan family this time were truly cutting off all ties.

"Father-in-law, I am also willing but incapable in this matter."

Sighing, Lan Jing Kuang knew that his words would inevitably provoke Yue Taotian's discontent. Thus, he resorted to playing the card of helplessness.

Fortunately, he had sufficient reasons for his current situation.

"The poison in Qing Yan has not been cured yet, and many people in the clan believe that she won't survive this time. Given the Patriarch's character, I won't be able to inherit the position of the Patriarch, and naturally, my status will plummet as well. You should understand my current predicament, Father-in-law."

Yue Taotian, originally filled with anger, couldn't help but sigh after hearing Lan Jing Kuang's words. Just as Lan Jing Kuang had said, he had foreseen these circumstances.

He had been quite satisfied with his son-in-law these past years. If something were to happen to Lan Qing Yan, not only would Lan Jing Kuang's life become difficult, but the assistance their Yue family received from the Lan family would also greatly diminish.

If Lan Qing Yan was still fine now, it was unlikely that the Lan family would refuse to let them stay in such a place.

With this in mind, Yue Taotian couldn't help but say to Yue Siqing, "Siqing, you should find a way to detoxify Qing Yan soon. This is the most important matter now."

Yue Siqing had been trying to decipher the poison affecting their clan members to prevent the enemy from using it against them again, so they wouldn't be defenseless. However, she believed that the enemy wouldn't come again for the time being, and dealing with Lan Qing Yan's condition was now the top priority.

Upon hearing this, Yue Siqing's expression became complex, but she still nodded. "I understand."

Lan Jing Kuang also breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Yue Siqing's response. Lan Qing Yan was his only daughter, and if something were to happen to her, all his years of effort would be in vain. That was something he couldn't tolerate.

Yue Manlan was taking care of Lan Qing Yan, who had become so weak that she couldn't even speak anymore.

The daily suffering made her wish she could just die, but most of the time, she was afraid of death.

When Yue Siqing arrived, Yue Manlan quickly stood up, unsure of why Yue Siqing suddenly came over.

During their journey, Yue Siqing had only helped when Lan Qing Yan couldn't bear it anymore, ignoring her at other times.

"I will try to find a solution for Qing Yan here. You should go back first."

Yue Siqing was in a terrible mood, but she had no choice but to bow her head now that they were within the Lan family's sphere of influence.

Their Yue family's power was now incredibly weak, and if anyone wanted to target them, they would be defenseless.

However, Yue Siqing had been studying Lan Qing Yan's toxins for a long time. If she could find a way to break the poison, she would have already done so. At this point, she felt increasingly frustrated, unable to find any direction for deciphering the poison.

Not only had their Yue family suffered a tremendous blow, but Lan Jing Kuang and others' positions in the Lan family had also greatly declined, as could be seen from the situation in the council chamber.

She couldn't shake off the feeling that this was a massive conspiracy.
