"You're asking me why that Gu Master came to kill me? How would I know! "Facing Tie Ruo Nan's question, Fangzheng blinked innocently.
"If you did something, I really hope you don't hide it. Because your unintentional words could be a huge help in solving the case. "The young girl said sincerely.
Fangzheng shook his head, "I was also puzzled. I was cultivating all this time, how did I attract an assassination? But after that, the people around me analyzed that this demonic Gu Master was hired by the other two clans to kill a rising star like me. You also know that Bai and Xiong clans have always hated our Guyue clan. Xiong clan is the most suspicious, they had once recruited demonic Gu Masters. "
"Xiong clan huh …" Tie Ruo Nan could not help but feel dejected. Xiong clan was already swallowed by the wolf tide, it seems this clue is broken again.
But at this time, there was a commotion outside the door.
"Look, isn't that Xiong clan's men?"
"Didn't Xiong clan get exterminated, why are there envoys here?!"
The appearance of Xiong clan's envoys caused a huge commotion in the entire village. Everyone was discussing.
Soon, there was news from the clan head pavilion.
"Xiong clan still has a large number of survivors."
"They retreated on their own, using a Gu left behind by our ancestor. At the same time, they concealed many of their figures, deceiving everyone!"
"This group of bastards, passively avoiding battle and letting the wolf tide spread to our side."
"Hmph, these Xiong clan people are big and crude, but their hearts are actually very sinister. They want to use the wolf tide to weaken us. Too despicable! "
Guyue clansmen were filled with righteous indignation.
The appearance of Xiong clan's envoys caused the entire situation of Qing Mao mountain to change drastically.
Originally, they thought it would be a battle between Bai clan and Guyue clan, but to think it would still be a battle between three clans.
But thinking about it, it was understandable. Xiong clan was a clan that had stood strong for hundreds of years, and similarly had a deep foundation. Which clan did not have an old ancestor or a trump card?
After Xiong clan's envoys left, Guyue Bo immediately called for an elder meeting.
"These bastards from the Xiong Clan Village are really despicable. They actually retreated! "
"I really can't look down on anyone. The Xiong Clan has always been ranked behind our clan and the Bai Clan, and is considered to be at the bottom of the Qing Mao Mountain. But since they have such a scheme, we have to be even more careful in the future. "
"They want to kill us with a borrowed knife, using the wolf tide to eradicate us. If it weren't for that lightning lycan, we wouldn't have had to sacrifice so many elders. These people deserve to die! "
"If not for Divine Investigator Tie's appearance, I'm afraid that even the two Patriarchs would have lost their lives. We can't let these people go for nothing. "
"It's necessary to demand compensation. It was us and the Bai Family who worked together to get rid of the Lightning Lycan. But as for how to ask for compensation, I still need to think it over carefully. "
The elders spoke one after the other, and finally came to a conclusion after the discussion.
The Guyue Clan would send an envoy to the Xiong Clan. He must find out the truth about the Xiong Family.
If the Xiong family was strong enough, they would have to ally with the Bai family. If the Xiong family was too weak, they might just send people to eliminate them and seize their spirit spring.
"Then, who is the most suitable person to go to the Xiong Clan?" Guyue Bo looked around and asked, "Which elder can take on this responsibility!"
The hall immediately became silent.
The elders looked at each other, no one was willing to go.
Now was the time of internal strife, and the crucial time to divide the cake of benefits. If they went to the Xiong Clan and caused their own bloodline to be leaderless, others would take advantage of it. When they returned, the situation would be set.
"I feel that to go to the Xiong Clan, there must be an experienced and mature person who can take charge. Among everyone here, only the Mo Chen Clan can take on this responsibility! "Guyue Yao Ji suddenly said.
Guyue Mo Chen snorted, and immediately retorted, "In terms of qualifications, Master Yao Ji is more qualified than me. Especially in terms of popularity, I can't catch up and concede defeat. Looks like we will have to trouble Master Yao Ji to go to the Xiong Clan. "
"Elder Mo Chen is right. I also recommend Madam Yao Ji." A family elder stood up.
"I feel that Master Mo Chen is more suitable." Another elder immediately retorted.
The scene was chaotic.
Guyue Bo sat on the main seat and watched coldly without making a sound.
The medicine faction already had the intention of leaving him and was no longer under his control. Therefore, he didn't want to help either side, and quietly watched the situation.
This was the first contest between the medicine faction and the Mo faction.
Both sides had political allies. It could be seen that the leaders of both sides had made many compromises and exchanges of benefits. But overall, the medicine faction was slightly stronger.
Guyue Yao Ji's popularity and the Chi faction's inclination were the main reasons for this situation.
Guyue Bo watched coldly from the side, secretly remembering everyone's factions.
As the clan leader, of course he didn't want to see power fall to someone else. These elders were all his opponents. But he decided to wait and see first, and not make a move.
"The Mo faction has too many resources and power, and they lost an heir. Therefore, the medicine faction is in a hurry to jump out and take a bite. Therefore, the key to this battle is on one person. "
Guyue Bo thought inwardly and moved his gaze to Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan had been sitting on his seat, not saying a word.
"It seems that this Fang Yuan and the Mo faction aren't very close and haven't reached an agreement of benefits. Otherwise, he would've helped already. Is this my chance? "Guyue Bo couldn't help but think.
But at this time, Fang Yuan suddenly stood up from his seat.
His action instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Then he said something shocking, "The mission to the village is very important, it concerns the rise and fall of our clan. I am willing to take on the mission and investigate the Xiong Clan's situation for the clan! "
"What?"
"Fang Yuan is volunteering to go?"
"What does he mean? Is he really dumb or pretending to be dumb? Isn't he afraid that by the time he returns, the benefits will have already been divided! "
All the elders were bewildered.
Fang Yuan had his own plans. If he went to the Xiong Clan, he might be able to find an opportunity to instigate a conflict between the three clans. Even if he couldn't, he would have a chance to leave.
"Wait a minute! Anyone can be the envoy, but not Fang Yuan! "The door suddenly opened and Tie Ruo Nan rushed in.
Fang Yuan turned around and his pupils shrunk. He saw the father and daughter of the Tie clan walking in with two people following behind them. One of them looked very similar to Fang Yuan, it was his younger brother, Guyue Fangzheng. The other was Guyue Jiang He.
"I wonder why Divine Investigator Tie is here?" Guyue Bo stood up to welcome them. His tone was slightly displeased. This is Guyue clan's internal discussion, how can you just barge in like this.
"Guyue clan leader and elders, I have already investigated the true identity of the demonic Gu Master who tried to kill Guyue Fangzheng." Tie Xue Leng said.
"Oh? It's like this … "
"Wasn't that demonic Gu Master ordered by the Xiong Clan?"
"Could there be some kind of inside story?"
"That's right. This demonic Gu Master's true identity is actually a hunter in the village at the foot of the mountain. But due to a coincidence, he became a demonic Gu Master. His name is Wang Er, and the reason why he tried to kill Guyue Fangzheng was because of Fangzheng's brother, Fang Yuan! "Saying so, Tie Ruo Nan stared at Fang Yuan.
"Brother, to think you are such a person!" Fangzheng clenched his fists, his eyes showing anger.
"Little girl, what do you mean?" Guyue Mo Chen's voice turned gloomy.
"Don't tell me, Fang Yuan hired this demonic Gu Master to assassinate his brother, Fangzheng?" Guyue Yao Ji said excitedly.
Even Gu Yue Bo's expression changed, slightly adjusting his posture in his seat.
"You are mistaken." Tie Ruo Nan shook her head, "The real situation is that Fangzheng killed innocent people, and killed Old Man Wang's family, causing Wang Er to take revenge. But Wang Er did not know Fang Yuan had a brother, and mistook Fangzheng for Fang Yuan, so he killed him to take revenge. "
"Little girl, everything needs to be based on evidence," an elder said.
"Of course I have evidence. Guyue Jiang He, tell us everything you know. "Tie Ruo Nan came prepared, and was not flustered.
Guyue Jiang He sighed, looking at the Tie father and daughter in fear, walking forward while trembling. He then knelt on the ground, crying, "This subordinate has failed in his duty, clan leader, please punish me!"
Guyue Bo's expression was gloomy, "What's the matter, say it first. Don't hide anything! "
Back then, when Fang Yuan killed Old Man Wang's family, it was under Guyue Jiang He's jurisdiction, and was discovered by him when he rushed to the scene. Because of the assessment, he had suppressed this matter and concealed it from the public. But to think that today, it was exposed by Tie Ruo Nan.
"That's what happened …" Jiang He stammered. He didn't exaggerate the details. It was very simple and in line with the truth.
At this moment, he did not dare to lie. Fang Yuan was also an elder, he did not dare to exaggerate.
"I did not expect the truth to be like this!"
"Fang Yuan killed Wang Er's father, Wang Er came to take revenge, and found Fangzheng. So it was like this … "
"Fangzheng suffered an undeserved calamity, and blocked a calamity for Fang Yuan."
The elders whispered to each other.
Fangzheng clenched his fists even tighter, anger rising in his heart. He finally could not endure it, and shouted at Fang Yuan, "Brother, how can you treat human life like grass? That old man and girl are innocent mortals, how can you do this?! "
Facing his brother's responsibility, Fang Yuan was indifferent, as if he did not hear anything.
Guyue Fangzheng was not the main point.
Fang Yuan looked at the Tie father and daughter. To be able to dig out the truth in such a short time, they were indeed worthy of the divine investigator title.
No matter what Gu they used, or what methods they used, to make Jiang He yield and reveal his secret, they were indeed capable.
Such ability made Fang Yuan even more certain that the matter of him killing Jia Jin Sheng would be exposed by the Tie father and daughter. It was only a matter of time. After all, this was the world of Gu, Gu could be used to commit crimes, and Gu could also be used to solve crimes.
