The person speaking to Long Ling'Er was none other than her eighth uncle, Long Ting. Several years ago, he had failed in his bid to wrest the Clan Leader position from her father, Long Xiaoyun. After Long Xiaoyun ascended to the position of Clan Leader, he could not bear to see brothers fighting, so he banished Long Ting from the Long Family, forbidding him from ever setting foot in the family grounds again.
Yet now he appeared here in the courtyard of the Long Family, showing just how dire the situation in the Long Family had become. A traitor had appeared in the Long Family; could it possibly be anything but severe?
If her father, Long Xiaoyun, were still in his peak state, perhaps Long Ting would not dare return to the Long Family, even if he had ten bits of courage.
Indeed, Long Ling'Er suspected that the situation in the Long Family was likely under Long Ao's control.
Thus, Long Ling'Er fixed her gaze on Long Ting and asked, "How can you be here?"
