The clan head, Gu Lingdao sat back heavily on the head seat after hearing the full story about his daughter from Lin Xulian. He can't believe that the daughter he's been searching for decades is already dead. And to think that hateful man was actually an emperor of a country. He can't help but blame himself for being careless and tolerant of his daughter's whims.
He also wants to blame his daughter. But as a father, he cannot find it in his heart to condemn his own flesh and blood. "This young miss, are you saying that my daughter was fooled by that man because of her skills in Gu poison? And her son, my grandson is seeking justice for his mother alone?" Gu Lingdao clarified while closing his eyes to calm himself.
"Yes, clan head Gu." Lin Xulian replied solemnly.
Despite all the stories and proof that Lin Xulian presented, the elders still felt suspicious of her. "If what you said is true, then why did that Xing Guang never tried to make contact with our Gu clan?"
