As soon as Lin Pinghai spoke, the expressions of the people in the council hall were different. Xu Haoran's expression had a hint of expectation. He also wanted to see Xu Ziyan's true ability and whether she could really refine a top-quality paper talisman. After all, hearing is believing, seeing is believing. However, Xu Haobo's face showed a helpless expression. He knew that Lin Pinghai, because he had always been the first person in the Xu family in talisman making, was very proud and sometimes even didn't give face to his elder brother. He also knew in his heart that the art of making talismans was a profound subject. Not to mention Lin Pinghai, even he himself never believed that the girl in front of him could make a top-notch paper talisman. Now Lin Pinghai clearly doesn't believe that Xu Ziyan can make a top-quality paper talisman. What's even more deadly is that his words are very heavy and he hasn't left any face for Xu Ziyan. Xu Haobo doesn't want to lose Xu Ziyan's treasure because of Lin Pinghai's reasons. But he also knew that once Lin Pinghai's personality was called true, no one's face would be given. In this way, his face could only show helplessness. And in his heart, he also wanted to take a look at the expression on Lin Pinghai's face after Xu Ziyan showed her skills. He thought about Lin Pinghai's arrogance in the past when he didn't take him seriously, and he had a hint of secret joy in his heart.

At this moment, Xu Ziyan was not clear about Lin Pinghai's identity, but she could be certain in her heart that the person in front of her must be able to make talismans, and her level should not be low, otherwise she would not have questioned herself like this. But his tone made Xu Ziyan unhappy, very unhappy, very unhappy! If anyone were to be pointed at and scolded, they would feel uncomfortable. Besides, Xu Ziyan didn't rush to become the guest elder of the Xu family, so she couldn't help but feel angry. So she took a step sideways, dodged Lin Pinghai, and completely ignored his existence. With a pair of beautiful eyes, she looked at Xu Haoran sitting in front of her, revealing a clear meaning:

Who is this? Can members of the Xu family easily shout and scream at guests in the council hall

Xu Haoran, sitting in the seat, immediately understood the meaning in Xu Ziyan's gaze, his face revealing a hint of embarrassment, and his heart couldn't help but reposition Xu Ziyan. He never expected that Xu Ziyan, at such a young age, could so skillfully grasp the situation, ignoring Lin Pinghai's scolding towards her and turning his gaze to himself. If Xu Ziyan were to scold Lin Pinghai, whether it was her immediate explanation or anger, it would have weakened her momentum. But now Xu Ziyan simply looked over and immediately handed over the problem to herself, not only maintaining her status, but also carrying a faint arrogance. In this way, Xu Haoran had to speak up:

Lin Sheng, this

Chief, don't be deceived by her. See how I expose her

Lin Pinghai really didn't give face to Xu Haoran. At that time, he cut off Xu Haoran's words and glared at Xu Ziyan with anger and arrogance. He is not someone who doesn't know the depth of things, so he wouldn't interrupt the leader halfway through what he just said. He was also angered by Xu Ziyan's actions just now. Who is he? The most influential talisman maker in the Xu family has now been ignored by a little girl. He doesn't feel that his attitude is bad. Is it necessary to be polite to a scammer who dares to deceive the clan leader? Moreover, he believes that this is also to safeguard the interests of the family, not only without guilt, but also with merit. After thinking about exposing Xu Ziyan's trick for a while, the clan leader's grateful and guilty expression couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart.

Xu Haoran was choked back by Lin Pinghai's words and couldn't help but feel a little depressed. He also didn't like Lin Pinghai's behavior, but he didn't want to offend him in his heart. After all, he hadn't seen Xu Ziyan's ability, so he turned his gaze to Xu Ziyan.
