Sima Youyue sighed. Why did things turn out this way?
The Xiao Family was obviously instigated by the Seventh Prince during the period when Xiao Ruo Bai was not at home. Xiao Ruo Bai obviously didn't know that they had changed.
With her temperament, it would not be easy for her to accept these things!
"Grandfather, tell me, the Regional Prince's injury has nothing to do with you, right?" Xiao Ruo Bai looked at the Patriarch of the Xiao Family. Seeing that he had no intention of denying it, her eyes showed pain as she murmured, "Why … why …"
"Ruobai, don't ask anything. We naturally have our reasons for doing so. "Patriarch Xiao said.
"Alright, I won't ask about this. I'll only ask you one question. When you asked me to go to the Duke's Mansion to find Xi 'er, did you want me to investigate? You used me? " Xiao Ruobai's eyes were filled with tears. "Grandpa once said that he would never use me and let me be the carefree princess of the Xiao Family. Grandfather, Ruobai ultimately lost to the clan's interests, right? "
"Ruobai …" Xiao Family Head saw that her reaction was so intense and felt very distressed. After all, he had doted on her since she was young.
She took a step back and her gaze gradually turned cold. "Grandfather, the Seventh Prince is still here. You should talk to the Seventh Prince first. If he blames us, our Xiao Clan won't be able to bear the consequences. "
"Seventh Prince …" Patriarch Xiao and the others raised their heads, but the Seventh Prince was nowhere to be seen.
"Master, the Seventh Prince is missing?"
Patriarch Xiao also realized that something was wrong. The Seventh Prince, who was in front of him just now, had disappeared without a trace.
"We've entered an illusion array." He looked around. The surrounding scenery had not changed, but when he looked carefully, he realized that something was wrong.
"How did you enter the illusion array? Who set up the illusion here? "Everyone cried out in alarm. They actually didn't sense anything when they came in. This illusion array was too powerful!
"Looks like we've been tricked." Patriarch Xiao said, "It's just that I don't know if this is to lure us out or if it's specially set up to target us."
"Eh? Why are you here? "The head of the Dong Family came in with the Dong Family's people. He was surprised to see the people in the valley.
There was clearly no one there just now!
"There is an illusion array here. We are trapped in it." Family Head Xiao said.
"An Illusory Spell?" Only then did the members of the Dong Family notice that something was wrong with the scenery here.
However, before they could break this array formation, another person walked in. Slowly, there were more and more people in Moon Creek Valley.
On the cliff, Mo Zhi looked at the situation below and exclaimed: "This formation is far beyond my expectations. Even I may not be able to arrange such a formation. It seems that she was the one who let me walk out just now. "
"Is this array very powerful?" Yuan Yan didn't understand arrays, but he knew how powerful the person around him was, and even he couldn't stop praising him, then this array was really powerful.
"This formation looks very simple at first glance, but it's much bigger than an ordinary illusion formation. Even though so many people had entered, they did not show any signs of collapsing. If it was someone else's illusion array, it would have collapsed long ago. "Mo Zhi explained," Moreover, this array is not that simple. There's a secret behind it. "
"What else?"
"You'll know if you keep watching." Mo Zhi didn't say anything and looked at Sima Youyue with interest.
No wonder the Old Ancestor said that it would not be boring to take on this matter, it was really true. But this lass was so defensive. It wouldn't be easy to gain her trust!
"However, it's interesting to do such a thing, isn't it?" He murmured.
In the canyon, those people looked at each other with a dazed expression.
"Who arranged the illusion array?"
"This illusion array trapped us all here, does it want to kill us all?"
"This is just an illusion array, just let him break it. Why worry so much? "
"Patriarch Xiao, Patriarch Dong, you came here the earliest, do you have a way to crack this array?"
"Not yet, we just arrived." Patriarch Dong said.
"Let's attack together, this illusion array should not be able to withstand so much power from us." Patriarch Xiao said.
"That's right. As long as the spiritual power exceeds the endurance of the illusion array, it can naturally be cracked. "
However, when they used their spiritual power, their faces changed drastically.
"Why can't I use my spiritual power?"
"This shouldn't be an illusion too, right? Some illusion arrays will also make people lose their spiritual power. "
"It shouldn't be." Patriarch Xiao mobilized his spiritual power, although it was a little sluggish, he could still move, "We should be poisoned."
"Poisoned?"
"Yes. We are poisoned. "Patriarch Dong also echoed.
"You can actually poison the illusion array, this …" Yuan Yan looked at the calm Sima Youyue, without pride or complacency, as if this was not arranged by her at all.
If she wasn't standing at the place where the array was opened, it would be hard for them to believe that she was the one manipulating all this behind the scenes.
"Xi 'er, it's okay. It's almost time to come. "Murong Hui said.
"Yes, Father."
Sima Youyue closed the array, although the surrounding scenery did not change, the people in the array felt the fluctuations of spiritual power. They looked up and saw the four people standing on both sides.
"Duke?"
Those people were surprised to see Murong Hui.
How could it be him?
They heard that he was going to clean up the strength of Vast City recently, could it be that he wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop?
"Xiao Family members stay, the others leave immediately." Murong Hui said.
As soon as his voice fell, hundreds of guards came out from inside and outside the canyon, blocking the front and back roads.
"Others leave, Xiao Family members stay!" The guards said in unison, and the loud voice echoed in the canyon several times before gradually dissipating.
Everyone looked at each other, and they were puzzled.
Was the Duke going to deal with the Xiao Family? But wasn't the Xiao Family his people? Did they betray him?
However, doubts were doubts, they quickly withdrew from the canyon through the passage left by the guards.
The Xiao Family also wanted to leave, but the guards were staring at them, making them unable to take a step.
After those people retreated, they did not go far, but stopped in a wide place to pay attention to the situation here.
In the canyon, Murong Hui and Patriarch Xiao looked at each other. Murong Hui no longer had the trust of the past, and Patriarch Xiao no longer had the respect of the past.
"Patriarch Xiao, have I ever treated you badly?" In the end, it was Murong Hui who spoke first.
"A fine bird chooses a tree to nest in, I am just seeking a better way for myself. Although the Duke has treated me well, Vast City is too poor to give us the way out we want. "Patriarch Xiao said with conviction, and there was no regret on his face.
When Sima Youyue heard his words, she really wanted to say that he was self-aware and knew that he was a beast. However, when she saw Xiao Ruo Bai beside him, she swallowed these words back.
