Before long, the sound of a table being flipped came from inside the great hall.
Aaaah! Flips table!
"Damn it!! He actually called me a fool. Was losing the immortal city my strategic mistake? It was clearly my subordinates who were stupid. It's all second brother's fault, that useless trash, otherwise why would I have needed to take this extra step!"
Huff, huff—!
Lin Heng's smug, arrogant face just now had truly infuriated her.
After calming her emotions, Dugu Yueli sat back down in the chair, closed her eyes, and sank into thought.
Sister Yueli closed her eyes in deep thought.
Originally, she had already decided to run tonight, but after Lin Heng came over to show off, she began to hesitate again.
Because Lin Heng had told her the core purpose of winning over the clans. That was the truth, and it was also what Lin Heng was currently doing.
At present, Nine Dust Hall had already chosen to borrow a route south. She could not just watch her own people suffer losses.
Even if she escaped, it would not change the overall situation at all. On the contrary, it would waste the excellent position her current identity had paved for her.
Clearly, at the banquet... Dugu Zixuan had not recognized her true identity!
If she had been exposed, would Lin Heng still have come over to discuss contacting the exiled clan members with her?
Most likely, he would have long since been impatient to summon a group of people, lay down a net of heaven and earth, and capture her alive!
"Hmph, hmph...! Brother Lin Heng... you will pay the price for your arrogance. You want to step on Nine Dust Hall and play the good person? Dream on!"
After returning to the City Lord's Mansion.
