If this had happened one day before, Elder Er would have immediately protected Murong Rou'er and disregarded everything else.
But the current situation has raised a few of his alarm bells...
Even though Murong Rou'er's every action had pointed towards protecting Murong Yan, her every word had clearly stated that Murong Yan was behind Master's illness. When Murong Yan had denied the allegations, she still tried to convince everyone that Murong Yan had allied herself with outsiders to kill Master.
Furthermore, considering what Master has just stated, does this mean that I've misjudged her all along?
Elder Er shut his eyes at the thought of this and his elderly face filled with anguish.
He truly does not wish to believe that Murog Rou'er, whom he has always treated like his own granddaughter, would turn out to be someone so malicious...
