Before he finished speaking, the Tenth Elder raised his hand to stop him from continuing.
“IPA is not our thing.”
"I know." Mu Qingtian certainly knew that IPA was not one of theirs, otherwise those people would have the guts to run to Temu Island to arrest him: "But we must keep our mouths shut!"
He spoke the words of silencing the witness in a calm and casual tone, without any sense of incongruity, and with such skill that it didn't seem like it was his first time.
Teme Island is such a big target and it often hosts dignitaries from all over the world. There are always one or two people who try to leak the secrets of the island.
Of course they are very familiar with doing these things, and this is not the first time.
But the old man still looked gloomy and rejected him harshly: "No."
Mu Qingtian was unhappy: "Why?"
There was a strange look in his eyes: "Don't tell me that you are still soft-hearted towards the so-called granddaughter-in-law and want to let her go."
He immediately said in a cold voice: "Ten Elders, this concerns the interests of the Sixth Continent, not your family affairs. Even if you are the patriarch of the Seron Family, you cannot have the final say! We must keep our mouths shut."
"Do you think she is one of those people you 'silenced' before? If you have the ability to do it, go ahead and silence them. I'll be happy to do so and wait for your good news here!" The old man let out a sneer and glanced at him with emotionless eyes, as if he was looking at an unworthy opponent.
Mu Qingtian suddenly recalled what kind of person Qiao Nian was, and immediately felt as if he was slapped in the face. His face turned pale and blue, and he felt extremely embarrassed.
"You can't just do nothing!"
"…you're right."
The ten elders almost whispered.
"Given her style of doing things, she won't give us the chance to take action against the IPA leader. If we take action against the IPA people now, we will only be caught with more clues. So we can't touch the IPA people! If we don't touch the IPA leader, we won't be able to put pressure on them. He will definitely find a way to pry open the mouths of the people he has captured... and then more secrets about Temu Island will be revealed."
What should he do to stop the situation from developing at this time
Qiao Nian… The Tenth Elder pressed his throbbing temples, but was unable to control the spreading headache.
He rarely has such a headache.
Last time, she sneaked into Wucheng District right under his nose, came to take his grandson away, and rescued the hostage he had captured with great difficulty.
this time…
The Tenth Elder knew very well why Qiao Nian turned against him and tried to overthrow Temu Island...
Because he had "punished" her for blowing up Victoria Harbour and for Ye Wangchuan's refusal to return to the family...
He killed the talents trained by Country Z.
Qiao Nian revealed the secret of Temu Island.
An indescribable gloom flowed through the Tenth Elder's heart, the corners of his mouth straightened, and his eyes darkened. After the huge anger, he actually admired Qiao Nian's actions.
There is give and take, and every grievance must be repaid!
The heart is ruthless enough and the hands are steady enough.
Such a woman is many times better than the fiancée he chose for his grandson. The Ye family has much better vision in this regard.
It’s a pity that she is not of the bloodline of the Sixth Continent, otherwise he would have wanted to find someone else.
“If you can’t put pressure on the IPA, then put pressure on Country Z.”
The old man's eyes gradually became calm and fierce.
When facing someone like Qiao Nian, there is only one way to go, and that is a head-on confrontation. No one can stop him from doing what he wants to do: "Doesn't she want to stand up for Country Z? Then tell her that the Theron family is not to be trifled with!"
"Let Continent M ban Country Z's chips and communication equipment!" The ten elders had a cold expression and came with authority: "If Qiao Nian wants to vent her anger for Country Z, I will let her learn how to write the word 'bow'!" (End of this chapter)
