Chapter 16 Compensation

"Shut up!"

Ling Buyang slapped Xu Xin across the face, causing him to spin around several times.

This was the greatest blunder of his life, which he had barely managed to conceal. Now you ask him to announce it in public, do you want to kill me?

"Lord, I just couldn't stand him speaking to you like that..."

Xu Xin looked utterly confused.

How did helping to speak end up with getting hit?

"If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"

With a cold sneer, Ling Buyang steadied his emotions and then looked at the fat man before him, "Since you could accompany Young Master Zhang in the trial, you must be a person of some status, surely not someone who would recklessly spread unverified and evidence-lacking information! By then, not only would damaging my reputation be a trifling matter, but causing my Mo Dao lineage to lose face wouldn't be very nice, would it?"
