Cultivation Online novel Chapter 1090

"Greetings, Patriarch Lin—"

"Save your breath. You'll need it." Patriarch Lin interrupted with a cold expression on his face.

Steward Jin swallowed nervously before turning to look inside the room, and that was when he noticed an exhausted-looking man sitting in the middle of the room.

Steward Jin immediately recognized this man to be the one he forced to take the blame for the incident, and his body began squeezing out every ounce of sweat it contained once he realized the situation.

"What's wrong, Steward Jin? Do you recognize this servant?" Lin Chunhua pretended to be ignorant and asked.

"Y-Yes… He's one of many servants in the Lin Family…" Steward Jin responded in a shaky voice.

"Is that all? What else can you tell me about him?" Patriarch Lin continued to ask.

"I…"

However, Steward Jin couldn't utter another word out of his mouth.

"Let's stop this pointless chatter and get straight to the point. Wu Jie, is this man, Steward Jin, the individual who forced you to take the blame?" Lin Chunhua suddenly said.

Wu Jie glanced at Steward Jin, seemingly hesitant to respond.

"Don't forget, both you and your family have our full support." Patriarch Lin reminded him.

Wu Jie nodded, and after taking a deep breath, he spoke, "Yes, he is the man who threatened my family."

"THAT'S A LOAD OF BULLSHIT!" Steward Jin subconsciously roared out loud.

When he realized what he'd just done, he quickly followed it up, "Patriarch! Ancestor! That man is speaking nonsense! I never threatened him! I am being framed!"

And before they could respond, Steward Jin pointed at Wu Jie and continued, "You claim that I'd threatened your family, but what proof do you have to back that claim?! How dare you try and frame me! A mere servant!"

The room became dead silent.

A calm voice broke the silence a moment later, "There is only one proof we need."

"What?"

Steward Jin shifted his gaze to the handsome young man sitting on the other side of Wu Jie.

Yuan pointed at the Grail of Truth resting on the table and continued, "He's not lying, and that is all I need to know that you're guilty."

"Now tell me, are you solely responsible for this mess, or are there others?"

"..."

Steward Jin didn't dare to speak, as he didn't want to drag his master to hell with him.

However, Lin Chunhua wasn't having any of this, and he grabbed Steward Jin by the neck before lifting him into the air.

"SPEAK! WHO ELSE IS RESPONSIBLE?!"

"N-Nobody! I am the only one responsible!" He muttered.

The Grail of Truth immediately began pulsating with light.

When Lin Chunhua saw this, his expression turned cold, and he suddenly tossed Steward Jin across the room.

The room shook slightly when Steward Jin's body slammed into the wall, leaving behind a large crack on it.
