Ji Hongyuan cleverly answered, "That's right. Madam, it's not that we don't want to wait for Ji Nan to come back, but we can't keep dragging it out, right? You said that Ji Nan will be here in an hour. Another day will be delayed if he doesn't come back.
"It doesn't matter to us, but the Ji family can't wait any longer." Ruthlessness flashed across Ji Hongyuan's eyes, but then he went back to look upright. "The various factions in the independent continent have been receiving news of the Patriarch's accident since this morning. We can't delay this matter any longer…"
After speaking, he pursed his lips and lowered his head to take a sip of tea, seemingly in no hurry.
Everyone was shocked by this news.
"Wasn't the news of the Patriarch's accident covered up? How did it spread?"
"If the other factions know that something has happened to the Patriarch…"
