Chapter 1494 It's Him? !
"Why on earth?"
Ling Chengtai said coldly to Ling Yingbo.
"Even if there is a purpose, I... I am also, for Yun Peng, I... I hope he can be the future head of the family!"
Ling Yingbo gritted his teeth.
"Ling Yingbo! You...are you going to kill me?!"
Ling Yunpeng shouted at the top of his lungs, saying that there was simply no way he could defend himself.
On the surface, it seemed like this had nothing to do with him, but the disaster still fell on his head!
Sure enough, the eyes of many members of the Ling family fell on Ling Yunpeng again. Now that things had come to this, everyone understood.
It's simply that Ling Yingbo wants to take on all the responsibilities on his own and doesn't want to drag Ling Yunpeng into it.
Even if Ling Yunpeng really didn't know about this matter, it was definitely directly related to him and he couldn't escape the connection!
Ling Chengtai's gaze also fell on Ling Yunpeng. In fact, he already knew exactly what was going on.
"No... Father, you must understand clearly that if this matter is really related to me, I will not die a good death. I will be struck by lightning..."
Ling Yunpeng roared, feeling as if the sky was falling and wanting to die.
Even if I die... I can't die in such an unclear way.
"Yingbo! You are confused!"
"Ling Yunpeng, you dare to do it but not to take responsibility, right?"
Many elders criticized this matter and were unable to accept it.
If the head of the family really died, they might be able to understand the fight between the two brothers.
But since Ling Qianfan brought back the opportunity and robbed and killed him midway, that means he wanted to kill the head of the family, which is truly vicious!
"No...I didn't, I really didn't."
Ling Yunpeng tried his best to deny it, sweating all over. Thinking of something, he looked at Ling Deyuan.
"Second uncle...it's really not me who can save my second uncle..."
Looking at Ling Deyuan again, he seemed calmer than the others.
Ling Chengtai also glanced at Ling Deyuan out of the corner of his eye, as if thinking about something.
"Master, this matter really has nothing to do with Yun Peng! This is all my idea!"
Ling Yingbo insisted.
"Ling Yingbo! Do you really think I'd be so easy to fool?"
Ling Chengtai suddenly changed the subject.
"Who is the person behind this?"
Upon hearing this, all the elders and the Ling family members behind them changed their expressions. What did this mean?
Could it be that behind Ling Yingbo, there is someone else other than Ling Yunpeng?
Many of the elders were looking at each other, guessing something, and feeling somewhat terrified. It seemed like something was really going to happen...
Xiao Yi and the others were also exchanging glances, and their expressions had obviously changed.
Ling Chengtai's words gave Ling Yunpeng a hope of survival, so who is behind Ling Yingbo?
Thinking of something, he suddenly had a guess in his mind and suddenly looked in a certain direction!
At this moment, Ling Yingbo, who was kneeling on the ground, was shocked. Could it be that the head of the family... already knew about it?
"Keep your head up!"
Ling Chengtai shouted.
Ling Yingbo raised his head slowly: "Master, I deserve to die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his aura changed, and he planned to destroy his Dantian and die!
However, Ling Chengtai was obviously prepared. He stepped forward instantly and slammed Ling Yingbo's dantian with one palm.
"puff!"
Ling Yingbo felt excruciating pain, spitting out blood, and fell to the ground.
Ling Chengtai's palm strike seriously injured him and made it impossible for him to commit suicide.
The sudden scene shocked everyone at the scene. Ling Yingbo was actually going to commit suicide! Was he really going to protect the person behind him?
"Ling Yingbo! Tell me, your crime is not punishable by death, so why are you seeking death?"
Ling Chengtai said in a deep voice.
"Don't...ask anymore. This matter is all my fault..."
Ling Yingbo was breathing heavily and looked very weak.
"You've been out a lot recently. Who told you the news from home? And who told you that Qian Fan and the others went to look for opportunities?"
Ling Chengtai interrupted.
Ling Yingbo closed his eyes slightly, remained silent, and did not intend to respond.
"Will anyone admit it?"
Ling Chengtai was looking at Ling Yingbo in front of him, but his words were addressed to the elders behind him.
Many people looked at each other, but in fact they already had the answer in their hearts to a certain extent.
"Master, don't waste your energy."
After a while, a voice suddenly sounded.
Hearing the sound, everyone turned their eyes to one place.
The next second, Ling Deyuan stood up, still looking calm.
"Second uncle!"
Ling Yunpeng gritted his teeth, it was indeed Ling Deyuan!
For a moment, he still found it hard to believe. It was obvious that Ling Deyuan had been helping him with plans from the beginning to the end, so why did he let Ling Yingbo take action behind his back in the end?
Then, his eyes froze, and he suddenly understood something.
Ling Deyuan didn't want to help him become the future head of the family at all, but wanted to use him to mess up the Ling family, then destroy him, and eventually become the head of the Ling family himself!
After figuring this out, Ling Yunpeng was completely petrified and felt ridiculous. It turned out that he had always been used as a gun...
"Deyuan... this..."
"Second brother!"
Many elders were shocked, even many of them were Ling Deyuan's men, they were completely unaware of the situation.
Ling Yingbo, who had his eyes slightly closed, opened them and looked at Ling Deyuan, his expression changing a little.
"Ling Deyuan, what do you want to say?"
Ling Chengtai asked, but in fact he had already guessed it before.
"Yingbo only gave me instructions. I had no choice but to do this. Please forgive me, Master."
Ling Deyuan said slowly.
"Are you still qualified to plead for others now?"
Ling Chengtai frowned. The hatred was real, and the heartache was also real.
The real mastermind behind the scenes finally appeared!
In an instant, the entire Ling family was in an uproar, with all kinds of discussions rising one after another.
Ling Deyuan faced Ling Chengtai and slowly knelt on the ground.
"I am willing to accept...any punishment!"
Ling Deyuan said, he had guessed that today would end like this.
There is no point in fighting any longer now, so it is better to admit defeat gracefully.
In fact, he understood something half an hour ago, so he compromised on the matter of Ling Qianfan returning to the Ling family.
He believed that Ling Chengtai would also understand this, so at this moment, he had no choice but to plead guilty.
"Any punishment?"
Ling Chengtai snorted coldly and sat back in the top seat.
"Yes!"
Ling Deyuan responded.
"So, are you doing all this for Yunpeng?"
Ling Chengtai asked deliberately.
At this point, he no longer felt surprised or shocked.
Ling Yunpeng almost cried. Just when he breathed a sigh of relief, his heart rose to his throat again.
No... could you please stop blaming him for everything? His life is not worth killing.
Fortunately, Ling Deyuan's answer made him completely relieved.
"It has nothing to do with him. It's for myself."
Ling Deyuan admitted it and stopped throwing dirty water on Ling Yunpeng, as it was meaningless.
Although his answer was simple, it still resounded like a loud bell in everyone's hearts. Did he still covet the position of patriarch?
If this is the case, then Ling Deyuan is really hopeless...
"In that case, there is nothing more to say."
After a while, Ling Chengtai spoke again and sighed in his heart, thinking that there was no need to ask any more questions.
"Master, only Yingbo and I know about this. No one else knows."
Ling Deyuan thought for a moment and said.
These words made the elders who followed him feel relieved. The problem was that they didn't know about it in the first place. However, now they no longer had the possibility to plead for Ling Deyuan.
"I won't wrong anyone!"
Ling Chengtai looked down from above.
"What else do you want to say?"
"No."
Ling Deyuan shook his head.
