Chapter 171: Disharmony.

Ling Xiao is naturally deserving of the Oscar with his deviousness. He doesn't say 'my efforts'. Instead he says 'everyone's efforts'. If you just look at one spot and miss the big picture, it's absolutely devious. This way, everyone's attention will naturally go to the direction of 'Because of Lei Ju's error, the plan failed'.

Lei Ju realizes that the look Elder Wang and a few others are giving him are turning strange so he immediately yells out agitatedly, "I see that you are clearly trying to use this as an excuse to change the topic so you can keep that level six magic herb to yourself."

"Didn't I say that I didn't dig out that stalk of magic herb? Even if I did dig it out, doesn't that mean that it belongs to me?"

Ling Xiao asks indifferently in reply.

"You're finally showing your true face ba. Sure enough, that stalk of magic herb was stolen by you."

Lei Ju accuses him angrily.

You XiaoMo finally can't take it any longer, "Big brother Lei, your words are rather too much. At that time we already discussed it clearly. You want the magic beast. We want the magic herb. But because of your mistake, not only was the black leopard not caught, there wasn't even enough time to dig up the magic herb. And now you are actually accusing Elder brother Ling of keeping the magic herb for himself. Can it be that you think the fault doesn't lie with you? Or are you trying to shift everyone's attention so that no one will question you about your actions?"

Why does he have the feeling that Lei Ju's brain is nothing but mush?

He himself let the magic beast escape and now he wants to snatch their magic herb. Unbelievably shameless. He doesn't believe that after saying it so clearly, the others would still side with him.

Lei Ju is shamed to anger, yelling furiously at him, "Is this a place for you to talk? Merely a puny mage and yet you dare to interrupt our discussion?"

You XiaoMo shrugs his shoulders innocently, "Who asked Big brother Lei to keep harping on the magic herb? Even an idiot can see that you are trying to divert attention, simply not daring to accept the blame for the plan's failure bei."

He looks at him as if to say that he is the one that is a coward!

Lei Ju glares at him furiously and spits out the words ferociously, "Shut up!"

However, his manner instead confirms You XiaoMo's accusations. Lei Ju was so anxious to point the blame at Ling Xiao because he really had that in mind. Not even having the courage to accept responsibility, this kind of person is undoubtedly a coward!

Although no one says anything, it is clear that they already agree with You XiaoMo's words.

"Alright, let's not fight over a little thing. No matter who is to blame, this matter is already over so let's not bring it up again. Next, we still want to continue looking for magic herbs and magic beasts."

In the end, Elder Wang is again the one that becomes the peacemaker. Although his words seems to for the benefit of everyone, it can also be taken as absolving Lei Ju of any blame. The shrewd ones can tell with one glance that he is partial to Lei Ju.

"That's right ah. We are all brothers of the same sect."

The other Elder immediately chimes in.

Ling Xiao's eyes is full of amusement as he glances at the two of them, "No need. Let's go our separate ways ba. I don't want to have the same thing happen again, not getting the magic herb and still having to pay with our lives."
