Helplessly, the Green-clothed Venerable had no choice but to cough lightly and replied awkwardly, "Brother Tian, in your opinion, how should this matter be resolved?"
Unexpectedly, as Ji Tian heard these words, his face displayed the same mocking expression as the mysterious elder, and he spoke with a playful tone, "All I know is that Lin Zifeng has entered the valley. As for how to decide, I'll leave it to you, Green-clothed Venerable. After all... Lin Zifeng is a criminal of your Beiyao Ancient Clan!"
Ji Tian's words were indeed a double entendre, leaving the Green-clothed Venerable speechless.
The first half of the sentence very cleanly dissociated the matter from himself, reminding the Green-clothed Venerable that they were merely ordered to hunt down Lin Zifeng.
And in the latter half, it was ostensibly a sigh, but actually a mockery of the Green-clothed Venerable, implying that Lin Zifeng is a criminal of the Beiyao Ancient Clan and not of the other Ancient Clans.
