Inside the People of Bai Ye Shen …
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Long Chen and the others followed Bai Yexing to the Hall of Elders.
The Hall of Elders was located at the highest place in the People of Bai Ye Shen, where all the God Kings gathered.
Many people from the main bloodline, as well as those who were qualified to enter the Hall of Elders, followed closely behind them.
Along the way, countless murderous eyes were fixed on Long Chen, and many people were shouting and yelling.
"How dare he come to the Hall of Elders? This place will be his burial ground!"
"He must be the one who killed Bai Feng. Otherwise, why didn't he swear on the Inextinguishable Law of Dao? He deserves to die!"
"I'd like to see how he distorts right and wrong. How dare he say he didn't kill Bai Feng? What a joke!"
…
When Bai Yexing saw that, he whispered to Long Chen, "If you really didn't do it, perhaps I've implicated you."
Long Chen did not answer, but he could guess what he meant.
The reason why Bai Zijun was so against him was most likely because of the position of Patriarch.
Inside the Hall of Elders …
It was solemn. On the right sat four old men who were also clad in long robes, and each of them looked dignified.
Five of them were sitting, while the rest were standing. The sixth was Bai Cang, who was sitting in the main seat, and Bai Zijun was still standing behind him.
The noisy crowd had completely quieted down.
After Bai Yexing arrived with Long Chen and the others, he bowed and stopped in front of the hall. Only the four God Kings behind him walked to the left and sat down.
Bai Yexing was the first to speak. "I'm sorry for troubling you all these days when I was not in the clan …"
Bai Yexing's posture was very low, and his words were very polite.
But, a God King on the right suddenly cried out in a deep voice, "Do you really think we can't see your purpose of recruiting this man? It's all because of the God King behind him! "
Before Bai Yexing could speak, Bai Zijun suddenly said, "Elder, please don't misunderstand the patriarch. Recruiting a God King is a great help to our clan. Besides, I believe the patriarch will not let a God King from a foreign clan enter the Hall of Elders …"
Everyone in the surroundings who understood the situation could tell that Bai Zijun's words were not friendly.
He seemed to be speaking for Bai Yexing, but in fact, he was telling everyone that everything that happened these days was because of Bai Yexing's selfishness!
When Long Chen heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Even the Immeasurable Monarch understood what had happened in the past few days.
The most fundamental reason was because of the Godking level skeletal creature behind the Immeasurable Emperor.
Apparently, some of the ten God Kings in the People of Bai Ye Shen did not want Bai Yexing to seek the support of more God Kings.
Just as Bai Zijun finished speaking, his father, Bai Cang, frowned and berated, "Zijun, you're allowed to enter the hall to listen. Don't say anything."
But Bai Yexing waved his hand with a smile and said, "It's alright. What you said makes sense."
Just as he finished speaking, Bai Zijun spoke again, "Patriarch, you've returned today. Are you alright? Have you settled the matter of the Patrolling Divine King?"
Bai Zijun's voice gradually had an interrogative tone, and his voice gradually grew louder.
"Impudent!"
Just as Bai Zijun finished speaking, Bai Cang suddenly roared and directly suppressed Bai Zijun to kneel on the ground.
Bai Cang snorted coldly and said, "Zijun, the Hall of Elders will decide between Yexing and Long Chen. You can't overstep your boundaries. Yexing is still the patriarch!"
Long Chen and the Immeasurable Emperor looked at each other and saw that something was wrong.
Bai Cang did not seem to be interested in the position of the patriarch.
Under the powerful pressure, Bai Zijun knelt on the ground and could not move an inch. However, his eyes were extremely sharp, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
"Elder Bai Cang, Zijun is right. The matter of the Patrolling Divine King has nothing to do with our clan!" A Venerable Sovereign from the main branch suddenly shouted outside the Hall of Elders.
"That's right. Zijun is right!"
"It's all because of Long Chen. Otherwise, why would our clan negotiate with the Patrolling Divine King?"
…
The scene actually became chaotic for a moment.
Bai Yexing's unkempt face was filled with bitterness. He looked at Bai Zijun, who was prostrating on the ground behind Bai Cang.
"Silence!"
Bai Cang sat on the main seat and suddenly stood up. A terrifying aura that was as vast as the sea spread out, and the entire space seemed to have stopped in an instant.
Regardless of whether it was inside or outside the Hall of Elders, everyone felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
Only the few Godking Elders did not move at all.
The Immeasurable Emperor also placed his right hand on the White Bone Divine King at the critical moment. Rays of divine light instantly enveloped Long Chen and the others, blocking off the pressure.
Hmm?
The Immeasurable Emperor's action immediately attracted the gazes of the ten Godking Elders.
At this moment, they seemed to have noticed the abnormality of the White Bone Divine King, but after the initial surprise, their eyes burned with a burning desire.
Long Chen saw that the scene had quieted down.
Everyone's eyes were also attracted by the Immeasurable Emperor's action. Long Chen suddenly took a step forward and said in a deep voice, "No matter what you say, Bai Feng's matter is not my doing, and the person who killed him is definitely not me."
"We'll talk about your matter later." Bai Cang gave Long Chen a deep look, then turned to Bai Yexing and asked, "Yexing, everyone wants to know what you've paid for this trip. Tell us."
Bai Yexing nodded and said casually, "I've used half of my origin to support the fire flag for three years. I'll take care of some other resources …"
'Whatever.'
The two words came out of his mouth casually, but everyone present was extremely shocked when they heard it.
The four Godkings who had been following him from the beginning could not help but stand up from their seats.
One of the five Godkings on the right said with a look of disbelief, "You've supported the fire flag for three years for a newly recruited Sovereign?!"
Even Bai Cang's face darkened as he said, "After today, your position as the patriarch will be discussed again in the Hall of Elders. If you disregard everything for personal reasons, you can't be the patriarch anymore …"
Everyone's expression was even worse than this Godking's, but because of Bai Cang's suppression just now, no one dared to speak again.
When Long Chen heard that, he could not help but glance at Bai Yexing.
Although he did not know how to support the fire flag of Godking Patrolling Formation that day, using half of his origin to support it for three years was no different from using a life-saving secret technique for a Sovereign!
He was afraid that the damage would be irreparable.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Long Chen could not help but say, "Long Chen admires Your Excellency's temperament, and I will definitely repay your kindness!"
"Everyone is gathered here today because you want to know whether I killed Bai Feng or not."
"Long Chen has a way to find out the whole story."
