Elder Ling’s throat was dry. He looked at his close friend Elder Song, whom he had known for decades.
Elder Song stood still and expressionless, with no intention to speak up for him.
Elder Ling had given up. If even Elder Song would not help, the others definitely wouldn’t as well.
Yuchi Ba announced, "I think Elder Ling is no longer suitable for his role as an Elder in the guild. As such, I propose to dismiss him from his formal duties."
Yuchi Ba was the leader of the New Citizen Faction, while Elder Ling led the Aristocratic Faction. The two were rivals, so he didn’t feel any guilt about adding insult to injury.
Elder Song momentarily fell silent before suddenly speaking, "I second the motion."
