"The Outsiders have already left. They just happened to pass by and have no contact with us." At this time, the Third Elder, Wang Si, replied.
"In that case, why didn't you inform the City Lord of this matter in time?" The Third Young Master said.
"We were going to report it to the City Lord, but before we had time to report it, Third Young Master had already come over." Wang Si hurriedly said.
"You're lying, if it weren't for your people coming to inform us, we wouldn't have known such a thing at all." The Third Young Master said coldly, then looked at the young man who reported to them. "Wang Yi, don't you think so?"
"Third Young Master, it is true. If it weren't for me not informing you, I'm afraid you wouldn't have known that there would be such a thing as the Outsiders." The young man immediately stood up and said.
"Wang Yi, are you still one of our clansmen?" Seeing that it was him who reported the news, Wang Si couldn't help but stare at him angrily.
Wang Si stared at him like this and the young man was so scared that he directly took a few steps back. "Third Elder, it was Zhou Yiming who asked me to do this."
"Presumptuous, how dare you bully your own clansmen in front of this young master?" Seeing Wang Si do this, the Third Young Master couldn't help but stare at Wang Si coldly.
Wang Si hurriedly said. "Third Young Master, I just hate him for slandering me."
"Whether it's slandering or not, it's not up to you to decide … What about your Zhou Yiming, where is he?" The Third Young Master asked.
Along the way, Wang Yi naturally told him about the general situation.
"Zhou Yiming, he made some mistakes and is now in prison." The Second Elder said.
"Made some mistakes? I'm afraid he was arrested because he wanted to deal with those Outsiders? "The Third Young Master said.
When he heard that Zhou Yiming was arrested, he knew that Zhou Yiming's actions had failed.
"This … Of course not." The Second Elder hurriedly said.
"Hehe … Bring him out!" The Third Young Master sneered.
He had already spoken, how could Wang Tian and the others dare to say no? They hurriedly asked someone to bring Zhou Yiming and others over.
Soon, Zhou Yiming and others were brought over.
Seeing that the Third Young Master of Bing Xuan City was present, Zhou Yiming and others were naturally relieved.
Before the Third Young Master could ask, he had already started to complain, "Third Young Master, you have to seek justice for us."
"Yes, what's wrong?" Third Young Master asked.
"We wanted to capture those strange races, but we were stopped by the patriarch's people. They even captured us. The patriarch even sent people from the clan to teach those strange races the Cold Runes!" Zhou Yiming shouted.
Hearing Zhou Yiming's words, everyone in the village frowned and stared at him.
Zhou Yiming directly ignored it.
The Third Young Master was instantly enraged. He looked at Clan Head Wang Tian and the others and asked furiously, "Is there really such a thing?"
"Third Young Master, he is slandering us!" Wang Si frowned.
"What do you mean by slandering me? It's true," Zhou Yiming retorted.
"That is indeed the case," Dong Shang and the others agreed.
Because of the Third Young Master's support, they were not afraid of Wang Tian and the others at all.
"Whether it's slandering or not, we will know once we try." The Third Young Master said so, with a strange look on his face.
Subsequently, he looked directly at a seven or eight-year-old child around him, and then said to his men next to him, "Bring that child here!"
One of his men immediately walked over, and the child was so scared that he hid behind the adult. However, how could the adult dare not to let the Third Young Master's men take him away?
Soon, the child was brought in front of the Third Young Master.
"What's your name?" The Third Young Master looked at the child and smiled.
The smile on his face dissolved some of the fear in the child's heart, and he said timidly, "Replying to Third Young Master, this child is called Wang Yuan."
"Wang Yuan ah." The Third Young Master nodded, and then his face suddenly changed, "Zhou Yiming and a few of your elders, what they said is true. You tell me honestly, if you say another false word, I will immediately cut off your arm!"
Before he finished speaking, the person who brought Wang Yuan over raised the Rune Sword in his hand, and it frightened Wang Yuan to the point that his face instantly turned pale.
"Yes … What Uncle Zhou Yiming said is true … They really went out to deal with those Outsiders …" Wang Yuan said while trembling with fear.
"Hahaha, good child!" When he heard that, the Third Young Master immediately laughed loudly, and then he said to that subordinate, "Send him back."
That subordinate immediately sent Wang Yuan back to his parents' side.
At this moment, the expressions of the villagers had already become even more unsightly.
The Third Young Master looked at Wang Tian and the others and said coldly, "The facts are conclusive. What else do you have to say?"
Wang Tian, who hadn't spoken for a long time, sighed at this moment, and then he said, "Third Young Master, what Zhou Yiming said is correct. However, there is a reason why we did this."
"Yes, what reason?" The Third Young Master said.
"Because the Outsiders killed the Silver Wolf that had been constantly harming the children in the village. That's why we didn't make a move against the Outsiders, and we didn't report this matter to the City Governor at the first possible moment," said Wang Tian.
"That's your problem. The Outsiders are the Outsiders after all, and they are our natural enemies. You can't conceal something like this just because they showed you kindness!" The Third Young Master spoke coldly.
At this moment, the Patriarch Wang Tian suddenly knelt down and said, "Third Young Master, this was actually my idea. I hope that Third Young Master will only punish me and let the others in the clan off!"
The Third Young Master's eyes spun, and then he looked at Zhou Yiming and said, "Zhou Yiming, what do you think we should do?"
When he saw the Third Young Master give him the authority to speak, Zhou Yiming was naturally overjoyed in his heart, and he said right away. "Third Young Master, Wang Tian is right. It was mainly him who made the decision …"
When he spoke up to here, his tone changed. "However, the three elders are at fault as well, so we can't let them off. If it wasn't for them constantly supporting Wang Tian, the matter wouldn't have developed to this extent."
"Zhou Yiming, you …" Hearing Zhou Yiming's words, Wang Tian couldn't help but stare angrily at Zhou Yiming.
He wanted to take responsibility for this matter by himself, and then leave the three elders behind. Who would have thought that Zhou Yiming wouldn't even give him such a chance?
"Patriarch, this is indeed the case. Please don't blame me," Zhou Yiming said slowly, as if he was a villain intoxicated by success.
Most of the people in the clan glared fiercely at Zhou Yiming, but they dared not say anything.
"Alright, then we'll do as you say. Capture all of them." The Third Young Master nodded, and then he continued. "Wang Tian is the Patriarch. Since he's been captured, your clan will lose a Patriarch, so the position of Patriarch will be yours, Zhou Yiming!"
"Thank you, Third Young Master!" Zhou Yiming was overjoyed. He really didn't expect the Third Young Master to directly let him take the position of Patriarch.
I'm the Patriarch, who would I be afraid of? What can anyone do to me? He was immensely pleased with himself.
"Now, we'll go deal with those strange races. Zhou Yiming, I'll give you an hour. Find some people from the clan, and we'll go capture those strange races!" Then, the Third Young Master said directly.
His purpose of coming here was to capture those strange races. The reason why he made Zhou Yiming the Patriarch was naturally to make things easier.
"Yes, Third Young Master!" Zhou Yiming immediately replied.
After a short pause, he said, "Third Young Master, you've come from afar. Take this time to rest in the clan. When I'm ready, we'll immediately leave the village to capture those strange races."
"Okay." The Third Young Master nodded.
Zhou Yiming immediately arranged for people to bring them to the clan's hall.
Then, he walked in front of Wang Tian and the three elders.
He said proudly, "Patriarch, three elders, I'm sorry."
He used to be an elder in the clan, but because of a certain incident, he was demoted by Wang Tian. Now that he was actually sitting in the Patriarch's position, he was naturally arrogant.
"Zhou Yiming, you're asking for a beating!" Wang Si said coldly.
"Wang Si, you're asking for a beating!" Before Wang Si's voice even faded, someone standing beside Zhou Yiming slapped Wang Si's face.
Now that Zhou Yiming was the Patriarch, this person naturally had to curry favor with Zhou Yiming. So, how could he let go of such a good opportunity?
"Wang Tong, how dare you hit me!" Seeing that a puny Wang Tong actually dared to hit him in public, Wang Si was instantly enraged.
However, when he wanted to hit back, the Great Elder and the Second Elder at the side tightly held him back.
"Wang Si, if it wasn't for the Great Elder and the Second Elder, you'd be lying on the ground now!" Zhou Yiming said coldly.
After saying that, he no longer paid attention to Wang Tian and the other two, and directly ordered people to directly escort them to the dungeon.
After that, he prepared to leave.
Not far away, an old man said to a young man, "Fan Si, come over here, I have something to say to you."
Although Fan Si was puzzled as to why this elder was acting so mysteriously, he still walked over.
Seeing that there was no one around, the old man immediately said in a low voice, "Fan Si, immediately leave the village and look for Elder Le, then tell him what happened here."
"Elder Le is now with the mutated tribe. Wouldn't that be tipping them off?" Fan Si was shocked and hurriedly said.
After returning previously, Elder Le left the village and returned to the cave where Linlong and the others were. This was naturally because he wanted to continue teaching Linlong and the others the Chilling Runes and Icy Talisman Paper.
"Between Zhou Yiming and the Patriarch, who do you choose?" The old man frowned.
"Of course it's the Patriarch and the others," Fan Si said.
"Then if you have any other questions, quickly leave the village and tell this matter to Elder Le! While Zhou Yiming and the others aren't paying attention! "The old man said again.
This old man was the elder closest to him, and he was also on Wang Tian and the others' side. Therefore, after a slight hesitation, Fan Si still nodded. "Alright!"
After saying that, he immediately left the village while no one was paying attention and walked toward the cave where Linlong and the others were.
Before he reached the cave where Linlong and the others were, he was stopped by someone. This person was Xiang Rong.
Xiang Rong was naturally not afraid of Fan Si, knowing that he did not know how to use Icy Talisman Paper.
Looking at him, Xiang Rong asked, "Kid, what are you doing here?"
"I'm here to look for Elder Le," Fan Si replied.
"You can tell me what it is," Xiang Rong said.
"This is a very important matter. I must see Elder Le," Fan Si said with a frown.
"Alright then." Seeing that no one else followed Fan Si, Xiang Rong did not make things difficult for him.
As he said that, he led Fan Si toward the cave. Soon, they met Linlong and Elder Le.
During this period of time, Linlong and the others had been racing against time to learn Chilling Runes from Elder Le.
The more they learned from Linlong, the more they felt that Linlong was terrifying. Linlong's learning speed was not something they could compare to.
"Hmm? Why is there a friend from the village here?" Lin Long asked curiously when he saw Xiang Rong come in with Fan Si.
"He said that he has something to see Elder Le about," Xiang Rong replied.
Before Elder Le could speak, Fan Si had already said to him, "Elder Le, something bad has happened. The Third Young Master of Bing Xuan City has brought more than 20 people to the village!"
"So fast!" Hearing this, Linlong and the others were shocked.
"What's the situation in the clan now?" Elder Le frowned.
"They released Zhou Yiming and locked up the clan leader and the three elders. Then, they made Zhou Yiming the clan leader and will soon bring people to deal with them." While saying that, Fan Si looked at Linlong and the others.
"It's a blessing that there are only 20 people. It seems that the City Lord doesn't know about this yet," Elder Le said.
"Why do you say that?" He Zhen was puzzled.
"If the City Lord knew that there were people of different races, he wouldn't have brought only 20 people!" Linlong said.
Such words immediately woke He Zhen and the others up.
"Those people are not people we can deal with. So, Lin Long, you guys should leave this place quickly!" Elder Le said.
"Okay, let's leave immediately!" Linlong immediately said.
The strength of the people who came was definitely much stronger than the people in the clan. Coupled with the help of Zhou Yiming and the others, how could they be a match for them? Linlong could naturally see this point.
Therefore, the top priority was to leave this place immediately.
Just as he was about to leave, his expression changed because he could already feel someone approaching their cave.
At this moment, the black monkey, who had been outside, rushed in to report the news.
"Junior Brother Lin, what's wrong?" Seeing Linlong's expression and the black monkey's reaction, Xiang Rong couldn't help but ask.
"They have already surrounded us, let's leave immediately!" Linlong said.
"That's too fast!" This time, it was Fan Si's turn to be surprised.
How could he know that Zhou Yiming didn't need too much time to find people? The Third Young Master didn't even think about resting, so after he came out, he immediately came out of the village.
"Follow me!" Linlong said at this moment.
After saying that, he walked towards the back of the cave.
Xiang Rong, Shao Yong, and the others, who believed in him, naturally followed closely behind him.
After running for a while, a few people suddenly appeared in front of them. Among them, Xiang Rong and Shao Yong had a deep impression of them. It was Little Stone, who had activated the ice talisman to deal with them previously.
When they recalled the power of the ice talisman, the two of them, who had suffered a loss before, had their expressions change.
Other than Little Stone, the others were also people from the village.
