Xiao Chong and Xiao Ke were confused. They did not know what was going on.
Xiao Zhan's reaction was the most intense. After all, he was the one who had placed the box containing the Ancestral Divine Skill in Ji Tianxing's residence.
However, the Grand Elder said expressionlessly, "I have searched his residence and did not find the Ancestral Divine Skill!"
The other two Elders also nodded in agreement with the Great Elder's words.
"That's right. We have searched Verdant Pine Yard twice!"
"Xiao Zhan, the Grand Elder's Soul Imprint is on the box. This cannot be wrong!"
Xiao Zhan was dumbfounded. His eyes were red as he shouted, "This is impossible! The Treasure Box must be in his residence! Even if it is not in his room, it must be in his Infinite Space Ring! "
Seeing Xiao Zhan's reaction, the Grand Elder seemed to have understood something. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Enough! Xiao Zhan, shut the hell up!
The three of you maliciously framed others. According to the rules, you will be demoted to servant for three years!
This matter involves the Ancestral Divine Skill. Your crimes are even more severe. I will demote you to servant for ten years! "
When the Great Elder announced this order, the thousands of Xiao Clan members in the square broke out into loud discussions and gasps of surprise.
"Oh my god! Isn't this punishment too severe? "
"Xiao Zhan, Xiao Chong, and Xiao Ke are the elites and geniuses of our clan. They have high statuses. How can they be demoted to servant?"
"Even if there is a mistake, this is just a misunderstanding. Why is the punishment so severe? Ten years! "
Xiao Zhan, Xiao Chong, and Xiao Ke also showed expressions of anger. They unwillingly shouted, "No! I don't believe this is true! "
"Grand Elder, please search again. I will bring you there personally!"
Originally, the three of them had used their lives as a guarantee that Ji Tianxing had stolen the Ancestral Divine Skill.
However, the Grand Elder had searched Verdant Pine Yard carefully and did not find the Treasure Box or the Ancestral Divine Skill.
He did not want to anger Ji Tianxing. After all, he had offended the genius of the Emperor Palace for no reason. Of course, he would punish the three of them severely.
However, he could not bear to kill the three of them.
The three of them were the elites of the Xiao Clan. If they were killed, the loss would be too great.
Therefore, the First Elder chose a compromise and sentenced the three of them to ten years of odd jobs.
However, the First Elder didn't expect that before Ji Tianxing could say anything, Xiao Zhan and the other two wouldn't give up and would continue to pester him.
The First Elder was so angry that he almost vomited blood. In his heart, he cursed these three idiots for not knowing what was good for them.
"Enough! Are you going to disobey my orders? "
The Great Elder roared furiously. Xiao Zhan, Xiao Chong, and Xiao Ke were all stunned.
The three of them were shocked to the point their faces turned pale. They obediently shut their mouths and didn't dare to criticize or resist.
Although they didn't know exactly what had happened, they still didn't know.
However, they knew that they had already been defeated, utterly defeated!
The only thing they could do now was to admit defeat and accept the Great Elder's punishment.
If this continued, any intelligent person would be able to tell that something was amiss.
Xiao Zhan had no choice but to calm down. He forcefully suppressed his anger and said word by word, "This junior … will obey the Great Elder's orders!"
The First Elder heaved a sigh of relief and said expressionlessly, "Second Elder, you are the elder in charge of the Hall of Law. This order will be carried out by you!
Xiao Zhan, Xiao Chong, and Xiao Ke will be stripped of their status and treatment. They will be reduced to odd jobs for ten years!
Take the three of them away! "
The Second Elder cupped his hands to show that he had obeyed and was about to bring the three of them away from the stage.
Everyone thought that this matter was over.
Even Xiao Ling`er heaved a sigh of relief. She was happy and gratified for Ji Tianxing.
However, no one would have thought that Ji Tianxing, who had been silent all this while, would step out of the crowd at this time.
"Hold on!"
He shouted in a dignified tone. His figure flashed and flew onto the stage.
Swoosh!
He stood beside the First Elder. His entire body emitted a terrifying pressure that invisibly shrouded the entire place.
Instantly, the few elders who were closer to him felt the immense pressure and couldn't help but take two steps back.
Xiao Zhan, Xiao Chong, and Xiao Ke were even more suppressed by the invisible pressure. They couldn't even lift their heads.
Ji Tianxing displayed the domineering aura of a Transcendent expert and the confidence of a peerless genius. He was as dazzling as the sun, and everyone could only look up to him.
He stared sharply at the First Elder and said in a deep voice, "First Elder! From the beginning to the end, no matter how Xiao Zhan, Xiao Ke, and Xiao Zhan slandered and insulted me, I didn't refute a single word.
I thought that as the First Elder of the Xiao Clan, you would handle this matter impartially and give everyone a satisfactory explanation.
I didn't expect that you would disappoint me! "
As soon as he said that, the thousands of Xiao Clan members in the square widened their eyes in disbelief. They looked at Ji Tianxing as though they were looking at a lunatic.
Cries of surprise rose and fell from the crowd.
"Gosh! Is this kid crazy? How dare he question the First Elder? "
"What is this guy trying to do? Xiao Zhan and the rest have already been punished by the First Elder. Is this kid going to add insult to injury? "
"This guy's aura is too strong! It's even stronger than the First Elder's aura! Where did he come from? "
"No matter how strong he is, he is still a member of the Xiao Clan. How dare he be so arrogant? What right does he have to question the First Elder's authority? "
The First Elder didn't dare to look Ji Tianxing in the eye. He lowered his head slightly and hesitated for a moment before asking, "Since you feel that my punishment is unfair, what do you want?"
Ji Tianxing was expressionless and said coldly, "It's not what I want. I just want justice!
Xiao Zhan, Xiao Ke, and Xiao Zhan slandered and slandered me. They even used their lives as a guarantee.
Since they want to die so badly, they have to die!
This is because the traitors who stole the Xiao Clan's ancestral divine technique are Xiao Zhan and his son!
Xiao Ke and his father are accomplices! "
Hearing this, everyone was stunned. They widened their eyes in horror and looked at Ji Tianxing in disbelief.
Everyone could see that Ji Tianxing wanted to kill Xiao Zhan, Xiao Ke, and Xiao Zhan. He had to kill the three of them!
The First Elder frowned and said in a low voice, "Young Master Tianxing, I understand your feelings, but you can't slander them like this … There's no meaning to it!"
"Slander? Hahaha … "Ji Tianxing sneered and said in a cold voice," Then I'll ask the First Elder to search the residence of Xiao Zhan and his son!
If you find the ancestral divine technique, please kill them in front of everyone! "
"This …" The First Elder hesitated and glanced at Xiao Zhan and the rest.
Xiao Zhan, Xiao Ke, and Xiao Zhan were all confused. They didn't know what was going on.
Xiao Chong and Xiao Ke were even smiling coldly, as if they didn't care at all.
Seeing this, the First Elder knew that the three of them couldn't have stolen the divine technique.
