Elder Bai was aware of the clan leader's suspicion and believed that with the clan leader's character, many would not let these twelve people go. However, if the guards were assassinated here, it would be easy to blame the Fengtian Sect. However, the guards are their relatives.
, how could they be willing to let their relatives die tragically?
Anyway, if Old Man Yan hesitates, he will arrange for his own people to guard these children.
"It's better than doing nothing, right?" Elder Bai said coldly.
"Old man Bai, what are you worried about?" Elder Yan asked doubtfully.
"Old man Yan, the disagreement between us because of the patriarch's plan is one thing, and what happened today is another. I'm going to say something ugly in front of you. If you don't protect your children, don't worry if anything happens.
Regret." Elder Bai said angrily.
When Elder Yan saw Elder Bai being so serious, he knew that the matter was not simple. Of course he understood the clan leader's temper. Since the clan leader was suspicious, he would not keep those children after all. But he had already stated that he would take over according to the clan leader's plan.
What happened, the clan leader would never hurt them, right?
Elder Yan looked at the other two elders and asked, "Elder Lin, Elder Qi, what do you think?"
The previous four elders originally wanted to protect their clan. Unfortunately, because of the clan leader's plan, the four of them had different ideas. Elder Qi and Elder Yan had the same idea. They wanted to follow the clan leader back to the tribe to find the treasure, but Elder Bai and
Elder Lin objected to the clan leader doing this.
It is not easy to return to the tribe, let alone return to Fengtian Sect to steal the map. Can the map be found just by relying on the saint's words? Sure enough, not only was the map not found, but also the map was taken away
Returned to Fengtian Sect.
Elder Qi remained silent, but Elder Lin took the lead and said, "I agree with what Elder Bai said, we cannot let those children lose their lives."
"You were originally with Old Man Bai. I don't believe what you said." Elder Yan said.
Elder Lin was too lazy to talk to him. After Elder Qi pondered for a while, he said, "Old man Yan, I also think what Old Man Bai said makes sense." When Elder Yan heard that Elder Qi also thought that Elder Bai was right, his face turned pale at that time.
Changed.
"How could you have such an idea? We don't want them to have extraneous feelings for the clan leader. We are of the same mind as the clan leader. How could he harm our descendants?" Elder Yan said coldly.
Elder Qi said: "Old man Yan, you know the clan leader better than we do. Do you think the clan leader really doesn't know how to do it?"
Elder Yan was asked by Elder Qi and didn't know how to answer. Of course he knew the clan leader, but it was different now. They were in Fengtian Sect and under the control of Wu Zun, so they had to keep it. What's more, he and the clan leader were of the same mind.
, how could the patriarch not even give him this face?
"Why don't you speak?" Elder Bai asked.
"Anyway, I don't think the clan leader would do such a thing. You are just fooling around." After Elder Yan said this, he turned around and was about to leave, but then turned around and came back and said, "It's you who should go out. This is my house."
.”
The three of them shook their heads helplessly and left Elder Yan's house. After looking at each other, the three of them went directly into Elder Bai's house.
"It seems that everyone has the same idea." Elder Bai said.
"We have watched him grow up. How come we don't know his temper? We don't know why Elder Yan is so persistent. Does he really not care about those young people?" Elder Lin said in confusion.
Elder Qi said: "Actually, when I saw how he treated that young man, I knew that the patriarch would not let them go. It's not that Old Man Yan didn't care about those young people, I think he must be very uneasy in his heart. He just
I just refuse to admit it in my heart and refuse to bow to you."
"Bow down to us? He really thinks too much. The clan leader has changed. He is no longer just thinking about the clan like his father. I know you have the same idea as Old Man Yan, but you have also seen his ambition.
It’s too big.” Elder Bai said.
"The old patriarch only thinks about the clan, and his wish is that we can return to Fengtian Sect. I have always supported the patriarch's subsequent choices. But what I didn't expect was that I found out that the patriarch actually wanted to control Xun'er.
, secretly poisoned Xun'er." Elder Qi couldn't help but said.
"Did he poison Xun'er?" Elder Bai asked in surprise.
You must know that Xun'er is his fiancée, and she is also a unique existence. Because Xun'er and the Saint are of the same lineage. Since ancient times, they have been engaged to the patriarch of this clan and the Saint. I still remember that because of the plan at that time, Xun'er
Xun'er's second uncle was not satisfied with the patriarch, so he fought against the patriarch. In the end, Xun'er's second uncle let the patriarch go because of her.
"I saw Xun'er yesterday, and she was in a trance. If Xun'er's second uncle were here, he would definitely find out that there was something wrong with Xun'er, and he would definitely take action against the clan leader again." Elder Qi said.
"To be honest, he should have stayed with Xun'er to protect her, but why didn't he show up this time? The clan leader didn't seem worried at all. Did he already know about it?" Elder Bai said.
"Yes, that fool has always loved the girl, so why is there no trace of him now? You know, it is not difficult for him to enter the Fengtian Sect. But he has not shown up yet. Is something really wrong?" Lin
The elder asked worriedly.
"The clan is getting more and more chaotic, and those girls have all been poisoned. Their relatives all want an explanation, and they really don't know what to do." Elder Bai said.
"How could so many women be poisoned?" Elder Lin asked.
Elder Lin's words naturally raised questions in the minds of the other three elders. It shouldn't be a coincidence that so many women were poisoned. What's more, they were originally from the witch clan. How could they be poisoned so easily?
However, after Elder Lin asked, several people shook their heads. They didn't know who was so cruel that they dared to poison the women of their tribe. In the past few days, they had also checked the pulses of these women and found that these women
The woman showed no signs of being poisoned at all.
"Their pulse conditions are also very strange, and there is no sign of being poisoned at all. If Elder Bai hadn't said that the princess who diagnosed the pulse was actually a saint of Fengtian Sect and the owner of Yaowang Valley, so it would have been impossible for her to diagnose the pulse.
The diagnosis was wrong, there must be something wrong." Elder Qi said.
He also had a sad look on his face, because among the children who were poisoned, there were also nieces and nephews of his own. Moreover, the reason for the troubles in the clan over the years was not caused by practicing forbidden arts. But what was the reason?
The saint didn't tell them either.
"I wonder how the saint is doing?" Elder Bai said worriedly.
"I heard that the saint was brought back and sent to the forbidden area. We are very unfamiliar with Fengtian Sect. We only heard that the saint mentioned that the forbidden area is very scary. I hope that the saint is okay and can come out of the forbidden area safely," Elder Lin said.
.
After a brief discussion, the three people decided to personally guard the twelve people. In fact, they were all worried because they didn't know if they had guessed wrong, but they knew the clan leader very well.
In the middle of the night, the three elders flew to guard outside the house. Just half an hour later, when the three elders thought that the clan leader would not come, they discovered his sneaky figure.
The patriarch quickly rushed into the room, looked at the guards lying there recovering from their injuries, and said softly: "Since you are unwilling to tell the truth, don't blame me for being rude."
After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and planned to pinch the guard's neck. The three elders stood on the roof and saw clearly. They immediately flew down and started fighting with the clan leader.
The patriarch did not expect that there was someone guarding the guard. No one could recognize him in the dark, so he immediately used witchcraft to escape from the house.
However, what he didn't expect was that the people guarding the roof of the guard were three elders, and through the moonlight, they had already seen the clan leader clearly.
Obviously, the three people looked very disappointed. Obviously they did not want to believe that the patriarch would do this, but the patriarch still did it.
"Ahem, who is it?" the guard asked after regaining his composure.
Elder Bai lit the candle and asked, "How are you?"
"It turns out they are three elders. I'm fine." The guard said quickly.
Elder Bai noticed that something was wrong. There was such a big movement in this room, but no one else in the room reacted at all. Elder Bai went over to check the breath of several people and found that their breath was very weak. Elder Bai used a silver needle to inject their breath
A few people reacted after getting a needle in their ears.
"A few of them, including this child, have all had their acupuncture points sealed." Elder Bai said.
"It's okay." Elder Lin said.
"What should we say next?" Elder Qi said helplessly.
"The patriarch won't come again, let's go back first. There are some things we can only talk about tomorrow." Before leaving, Elder Bai gave the guard who woke up an injection, and then he left the house with peace of mind.
Elder Bai gave the guard a meaningful look before following them back to his house.
As soon as the three people left, they saw a dark figure flashing into their house.
After looking at the four sleeping people, he left with peace of mind.
After returning to the house, he took off his veil. It turned out that the person who had just gone to guard the courtyard alone was actually Elder Yan. It seemed that he did not believe that the patriarch would spare them. He came earlier than the other three.
So, he hid it in the cabinet below. He didn't expect that the first people waiting would be these three people, and they would actually be guarding the children since midnight.
Just when he thought he didn't believe the patriarch and was accompanying them crazy, the patriarch really entered the room. He could see clearly that the patriarch wanted the life of the guard. He really wanted to rush out.
, blocking the clan leader's hand. Unexpectedly, Elder Bai actually took the first step, stopped the clan leader, and even fought a draw.
He could see that the patriarch did not use all his strength and was able to escape easily from the hands of the three elders, which was really surprising. Logically speaking, he knew the strength of the patriarch. In addition to refining Gu, the patriarch's martial arts were actually just
The average in the clan. Therefore, just a few moments ago, he knew that the clan leader must have concealed his strength, and he was probably secretly practicing something. When he returned to the room, he had not yet reacted. It was not until he thought about it more and more just now.
