The Beiling Mansion was only so big. Actually, the Yue Clan did not even need to look for people. The things that happened in the Yue Clan over the past three days had already been known by the other clans.
After all, the other clans were not idiots. They had already found some clues about the Yue Clan after they caused such a huge commotion. Although it was not detailed, they knew that this matter was related to the Mu Clan and the Blue Dragon Society.
After all, the Yue Clan was in the wrong in the matter with the Mu Clan. They did not say anything about this. Moreover, there were assassins from the Blue Dragon Society involved, so they did not dare to get involved.
As for the other small forces in the Beiling Mansion, they were too weak. The Blue Dragon Society was too far away from them. With their wealth, they could only hire an Innate Ranker assassin from the Blue Dragon Society. It was better for them to kill people themselves.
However, when they heard the Yue Clan personally inviting them to discuss matters, they did not dare to refuse.
In the Yue Clan's main hall, the leaders of more than ten forces in the Beiling Mansion had already gathered. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
The Yue Clan's Elder, Yue Henian, walked out and sat on the main seat. He coughed and said, "Everyone, you should have heard about the things that happened in the Yue Clan recently. Recently, the Yue Clan has been harassed by some rascals.
The enemy is in the dark, while we are in the light. Therefore, this matter is not easy to deal with. However, allowing someone to act so arrogantly in the Beiling Mansion is a disgrace to the Beiling Mansion.
Therefore, I have to trouble everyone with one thing. All the forces in the Beiling Mansion should move out together and investigate all the outsiders in the Beiling Mansion. You must find that person! "
After saying this, Yue Henian looked at the people around him and said lightly, "After this matter, the Yue Clan will not forget your help."
Everyone present was shocked. Obviously, they understood what Yue Henian meant.
If they helped, Yue Henian would not forget their kindness. However, if they did not help, the Yue Clan would not forget them either!
Therefore, everyone present stood up and said to Yue Henian, "Don't worry, Senior Yue. We will send people to search now. We will not let a rascal continue to act so arrogantly here!"
The Yue Clan dominated the Beiling Mansion. Now that they had annexed the Mu Clan and attached themselves to the Divine Martial Sect, how would they dare to disobey the Yue Clan?
Hence, once they received the order from the Yue Clan, they immediately sent their disciples to search within the Beiling Mansion.
After nightfall, the various families did not stay idle. They sent their disciples with lanterns and torches to search the city.
If it was only the Yue Clan, Chu Xiu could naturally come and go as he pleased in the city.
However, there were more than ten Great Clans in the entire Beiling Prefecture attacking together. The number of disciples and servants had long since exceeded ten thousand. It was highly possible that Chu Xiu would be discovered if he was not careful.
In the dark, Chu Xiu hid in a corner and looked at the team searching for him. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
In the dark, Chu Xiu hid in a corner and looked at the team searching for him. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
Chu Xiu had already expected the Yue Clan to come up with a countermeasure.
As the number one clan in the Beiling Mansion, it would be strange if the Yue Clan did not make use of their power in the Beiling Mansion.
Unfortunately, no matter what, people only cared about themselves. Which was more important, the threat of the Yue Clan or their own life and death?
That night, Chu Xiu did not go to the Yue Clan. Instead, he went to the Sun Clan, a small clan in the Beiling Mansion.
The Sun Clan Master was only an Innate Ranker. There were only three Innate Rankers in the entire Sun Clan. They were the weakest in the Beiling Mansion.
At this time, the Sun Clan's Clan Master was in a deep sleep. The servants and some collateral relatives of the Sun Clan had all been sent out by him to search for people. As the Clan Master, even if there was an order from the Yue Clan, he naturally wouldn't personally take action.
However, at this moment, the Sun Family's Patriarch suddenly felt that something was wrong. In his sleep, he suddenly felt a chill. He subconsciously opened his eyes, and what appeared before him was an expressionless black iron mask. Although it looked stiff, it was actually very strange.
Through the black iron mask, a pair of eyes that looked like they were looking at a dead man!
He subconsciously wanted to scream, but Chu Xiu directly covered his mouth. The Red Sleeve Blade was placed on his neck, and the cold blade made the Sun Family Patriarch feel a frightening killing intent and chill, causing him to not dare to move at all.
Moving the blade away, Chu Xiu stretched out his finger and made a shushing gesture, "Don't make a noise at night. Mind your manners."
The Sun Clan Master hurriedly nodded with a terrified expression on his face.
Chu Xiu moved his hand away and pointed at his mask and bamboo hat. He said softly, "Do you know who I am?"
The Sun Clan Master trembled and said, "Yes, you are a member of the Blue … Blue Dragon Society!"
Chu Xiu said, "It's good that you recognize me. Since you know that I am from the Blue Dragon Society, why did you still dare to search for me in the Beiling Mansion?"
The Sun Clan Master said with a sad face, "It was the Yue Clan who forced us. We didn't want to do this!"
As he said this, the Sun Clan Master looked at Chu Xiu carefully and said, "I heard that the Blue Dragon Society doesn't kill innocent people except for their targets, right? This time, your target is the Yue Clan. We, a small clan like ours, can't afford to offend the two of you. We are also very helpless when we are stuck in the middle. "
Chu Xiu said lightly, "The Blue Dragon Society doesn't kill innocent people. If no one is paying us, why would we waste our energy to kill people?
But the aristocratic families of the Beiling Mansion are different. I want to kill someone from the Yue Clan, but you are helping the Yue Clan to search for me. You are stopping me from completing my mission and hindering me from killing people. Tell me, what is the meaning of this?
Cutting off one's source of wealth is like killing one's parents. You are helping the Yue Clan, which is the same as cutting off my source of wealth. Do you still think that you are innocent? "
The Sun Clan Master was about to cry. He said with a sad face, "But the Yue Clan …"
Chu Xiu waved his hand and interrupted the Sun Clan Master, "I don't care about the Yue Clan or not. The mission that the Blue Dragon Society has accepted must be completed!"
As he said this, Chu Xiu pulled out the long blade that the Sun Clan Master had placed on the bed. He gathered his Earth Energy on his finger and drew a dragon mark that represented the symbol of the Blue Dragon Society on the long blade. He threw it aside and said lightly, "Tomorrow, take this to the other families and tell them that the choice is in their hands. You should know what to do."
After saying this, Chu Xiu left immediately. The Sun Clan Master did not even dare to call for help. He could only look at his long blade and cry.
On the second day, the Sun Clan's Clan Leader gathered all the people from the other forces in Beiling Manor and threw out the long blade right in front of them. Everyone was instantly shocked, and someone said with a dark expression, "Old Sun, what is the meaning of this? Are you showing the blade in front of us? "
The Sun Clan Master smiled bitterly, "Everyone, take a look at the thing on the blade."
Only after hearing his words did everyone notice the dragon pattern on the blade, causing their expressions to change abruptly.
"The Blue Dragon Society came to find you?" The person from before asked.
The Sun Clan Master nodded with a sad face and said, "The killer from the Blue Dragon Society said that cutting off one's source of wealth is the same as killing one's parents. If we stop him from killing the Yue Clan, we will be cutting off his source of wealth.
This blade is a warning from the other party. He said that the choice is in our hands. Everyone, I have already told you what to do. Do as you see fit. Anyway, I am not going to get involved in this matter.
In the middle of the night, when I open my eyes, I see an expressionless black iron mask in front of me with a long blade on my neck. If this happens a few more times, even if I don't die, I will be scared to death!
If the Yue Clan goes too far, the Sun Clan will simply move out of the Beiling Mansion. If we can't afford to offend them, can't we just hide? "
Everyone present looked at each other in dismay, unable to hide the fear in their hearts.
They knew how many people from the Yue Clan had died. Whether it was an Innate Ranker or an Inner Aura Ranker, they couldn't stop the killer. Even an Inner Aura Ranker was killed in the Yue Clan. Who could bear such a thing?
As for the other small clans in the Beiling Mansion, most of them were only Innate Rankers. Only a few of them had Inner Aura Rankers. Even so, they couldn't stop the killer from the Blue Dragon Society.
The killer could kill people in the Yue Clan like a game. Killing them was simply too easy.
The warrior from before said, "Old Sun, don't be anxious. The Yue Clan is too overbearing. We have long been dissatisfied with this. It is not worthwhile to offend such a terrifying killer from the Blue Dragon Society for the sake of the Yue Clan. So, we really can't interfere in this matter anymore.
However, our powerful clans have stayed in the Beiling Mansion for at least a few decades. Why should we move out of the Beiling Mansion just because of the Yue Clan? Not to mention the fact that it is difficult to settle down in other places, it is not easy to find a place with such rich Qi of Heaven and Earth.
So, why don't we all join forces and help the Yue Clan search for the killer on the surface, but in reality, we should not make any noise no matter what we see. It is as if we are blind. What do you all think? "
Everyone present looked at each other and nodded. This was a good idea.
