Shi Lang's question directly questioned the motive of Third Young Master Zhu. Yang Tie was stunned by the presence of mind displayed by Shi Lang, which was too overwhelming.
The Third Young Master Zhu was stunned and speechless. He did not know how this guy turned the tables on him. This was the first time Zhu Lin had met a match in a battle of words. He wrecked his brain to respond, but he could not come up with any suitable one.
If he tried to move ahead, the situation would look like he was questioning the dignity of the Heavenly Dragon Pavillion. In the Forger City, his family may appear to be the overlord, but the Dragon Pavillion rules over the overlords. They had the best forgers in the city and were the highest taxpayers.
