    The Second Elder, who was standing by the side, stepped in.


    “We may not have the evidence that you murdered her, but it’s true that you have been sleeping with Young Master Xue. There were a lot of us who saw it. Seeing that your sister would be getting married to Young Master Xue, you decided to make a move. Since you’re willing to seduce your brother-inw, who knows if you would have hated your sister, and in order to stop your sister from getting married to him, it may be possible that you would have killed her.”


    “That’s right! Even Z from the Sanctuary has testified against you, saying that you’re the murderer. What else can you say about that?”


    “We are the biological family of Saka, but it was The Sanctuary who found Saka’s body! Even her funeral was held by The Sanctuary! This is an insult!”


    “You better watch your mouth! Z was just suspecting. Does he have any evidence that I’m the one who murdered my sister?”


    “Hmph, if he had, do you think that you’d be able to stand there and continue arguing with us?”


    “That’s right!”


    Most of the elders that had the right to voice out their opinion had decided to oppose her, trying to frame her.


    Dong Yuetong was fuming with rage.


    These people were monsters, not knowing anything about ethics and integrity when there were profits involved.


    However, after spending some much time with these people, she knew that there was no point in her being angry.


    She calmed herself down and smiled instead. “Since none of you have evidence, this means that I’m still innocent, right? Since I’m innocent, I am next in line and I will be inheriting my sister’s shares. I hope that everyone remembers what the Tang Sect was built on.


    “Now that Big sister is dead, if I refuse to treat those people that are in need, the reputation of the Tang Sect will soon plummet. Without me, the powerful people wouldn’t respect the Tang Sect, and by then, even if all of you have more shares of the Tang Sect than I do, it may not be worth as much as it used to.


    “Plus, we have been friends with the Xue family for more than ten years. If it wasn’t because of my efforts in maintaining that rtionship for all these years, do you think that the Xue family would still cooperate with the Tang Sect?”


    “Second Miss is right. Although she had been together with Young Master Xue behind Saka’s back, which isn’t something to be proud of, it is Second Miss who is still with him now. If they weren’t together back then, our rtionship with the Xue family would have been broken by now. All of us are aware that the Xue family is in charge of the imports and exports of our jade business, which brings in arge ie to the Tang Sect.”


    “That’s right. We’re lucky that Second Miss is in a good rtionship with Young Master Xue, getting rid of all the troubles that we would have faced in the future.”


    “Saka was the one who personally taught Second Miss her ‘Qi’ technique. She may not be as good as Saka, but I would like to ask everyone in this room a question. Is there anyone who has skills that are better than those of Second Miss? How about the ‘Qi’ technique? Do any of you have it?”


    At that point, most of the talented people who were on Dong Yuetong’s side started speaking.


    When everyone in the room got heated, Xue Jinyuan walked into the conference room, just as Dong Yuetong had arranged.


    “Elders of the Tang Sect, I am very sorry for Saka’s death. I was her fiancé, but I fell in love with Xiao Yue. This is truly my fault, but I can promise all of you that no matter whether it’s Saka or Xiao Yue, the Xue family will give them our full support.”


    Xue Jinyuan was very talented at talking.


    What he meant was that the Xue family would not be supporting anyone other than Saka and Dong Yuetong. It wouldn’t matter who the next person in charge was because they would only be supporting the sisters.


    The head of the Xue family used to be the King of Navigation at the Delta, as he had control of all the routes on the sea. Even the Somali pirates wouldn’t dare to rob any ships that belonged to the Xue family. This was why the Xue family was so important to them.
