Luo Tian rode his elephant into the tall and mighty Morrow Clan's residence. This kind of extravagance was already a common sight for him. He could see it every day in Rahu Clan. On the way to the guest hall, he was somewhat puzzled as to why Morrow Clan's patriarch had summoned him and even invited Jasmine and Domingle.
Could it be because of Ming Xiu?
Thinking of Ming Xiu, Luo Tian felt that something was strange. When he was in Pipa Clan, he had won a group of children emitting different-colored light and returned. Jasmine and Domingle had not taken long to catch up to him and snatch them. Only Ming Xiu hadn't appeared from start to finish.
This made him somewhat puzzled. Had Ming Xiu already changed his nature and no longer did this kind of sneaky thing?
The more Luo Tian thought about it, the more he felt that it was related to Ming Xiu. As the young master of Morrow Clan, something had happened to Ming Xiu, so Morrow Clan's patriarch had the courage to take out the patriarch's decree and order the three young masters to come to his residence.
Although Asura City had four great clans and each had their own jurisdiction, as long as the patriarch's decree was taken out, no matter which clan it was, they had to obey it.
Normally, no one would take out this token if there was nothing important.
While thinking about it, Luo Tian arrived at the guest hall. Inside the large guest hall, there were only a few people sitting there. Sitting on the main seat was the handsome three-headed patriarch of Morrow Clan, Jiao Xiu. The two people sitting below him were precisely Jasmine and Domingle. When Luo Tian looked at them, a hint of worry appeared on their faces.
"Patriarch Jiao Xiu, why did you bring me here?" Luo Tian directly asked.
Jiao Xiu, who was sitting on the main seat, was expressionless. His black pupils were like black holes that could devour the souls of other people. After a long time, Jiao Xiu said, "I called you here to ask if you met my son Ming Xiu on the way back to Asura City with those children."
Sure enough, it was for this matter.
"After I left Pipa Clan, I went straight to Asura City without stopping," Luo Tian said honestly. "Patriarch Jiao Xiu should know that the four young masters of the four clans compete for things by entering Asura City. I only met Jasmine and Domingle on the way. As for Ming Xiu, I've never seen him. "
"Yes, Patriarch Jiao Xiu. When I and Domingle left the Pipa Clan, Ming Xiu was still there. After that, the two of us wanted to intercept Luo Tian and snatch the child, but we failed, so we returned to Asura City. On the way, we never saw Ming Xiu. "
"I can also prove that I have never seen it before."
Jasmine and Domingle hastily opened their mouths to speak.
Jiao Xiu, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at the three young masters below him. Suddenly, a trace of decline appeared on his face as he slowly said, "Ming Xiu is dead. The jade medallion with his aura has shattered."
As soon as his voice fell, it was like a stone falling into the calm surface of a lake, and it caused a wave. Jasmine's face, Domingle's face, and even Luo Tian's face showed a trace of anxiety. Ming Xiu had surprisingly died in Lakshmi City's territory, and Jiao Xiu had called the three young masters over to suspect that they were the culprits.
Domingle's and Jasmine's expressions turned even more grave. According to reason, since they had already questioned him, they should naturally release him. Since the three young masters' statements were the same, it was enough to prove that none of them had lied. But Jiao Xiu didn't release them and even told them about Ming Xiu's death. This clearly meant that the three of them were thinking of another possibility.
He was suspecting that the three of them had joined hands to deal with Ming Xiu while maintaining the same statements.
The three young masters felt that the reception hall was somewhat cold. If they didn't leave in time, they would truly not be able to leave.
Ever since the birth of the four great clans, competition between the young masters of each clan was a common matter. But every young master had a sense of propriety. Even if they competed against each other, they wouldn't kill each other. Usually, they would stop at a certain point in a fight.
But Ming Xiu's death was simply a major matter. This matter was extremely troublesome.
"I fear that clan head Jiao Xiu believes that we three young masters killed Ming Xiu. Although the four of us don't get along, we naturally understand propriety, so how could we kill each other? "Domingle said while pretending to be calm while maintaining the panic in his heart.
"That's naturally the case. We are the young masters of our clans, so we will definitely abide by the rules. Moreover, we aren't stupid enough to kill each other here. "
"That's right!"
The three young masters explained, but their words still didn't make Jiao Xiu release Ming Xiu. Jiao Xiu's expression didn't change in the slightest.
Jiao Xiu's face was as cold as ice, and he said in a calm voice, "If it was under ordinary circumstances, I would naturally believe that you three young masters would abide by the rules and not kill any of the young masters. But this is a special situation. God father has returned to Asura City and is preparing to annex Lakshmi City. This is the start of the battle of gods. "Whoever among the four great clans can make a great contribution will become the clan head. We, the older generation, are already fixed in our positions and won't change easily.
"Only you youngsters, as the young masters of the four great clans, can make a great contribution, so it is easy for god father to attach importance to you. Therefore, it isn't impossible for the three of you to conspire to kill Ming Xiu. After all, one less obstacle means one more opportunity, right? "
Her words were like an enormous stone smashing into the heads of the three young masters, and their expressions changed greatly. Just as Jiao Xiu had said, it was a special time, and anyone could break the rules first. And the meaning of his words clearly showed that he considered the three of them as murderers.
Jasmine's eyes lit up, and she suddenly thought of a person. "Clan head Jiao Xiu, I think you are mistaken. If we three young masters really killed Ming Xiu, why would we listen to your clan head's command and come here? Wouldn't that be courting death? "You also said that rules can be broken. When we saw the clan head's command, we could have directly returned to our residence. Although you are also a god, you wouldn't dare to barge into our residence, right?
"What's more, it wasn't just us four young masters who fought over the children emitting the five-colored light in Pipa Clan. A branch family descendant of your clan was also there, so you should have pulled him over and questioned him."
When Domingle heard those words, he suddenly recalled Chen Xiu and said to Jiao Xiu, "That's right, that branch family descendant is called Chen Xiu, and it seems that he and Ming Xiu aren't on good terms. By the time I reached Pipa Clan's territory, their subordinates had already fought, and one of Ming Xiu's subordinates was killed. "
When Jiao Xiu heard the words of the three young masters, a hint of vigor appeared in his eyes, and he mumbled to himself, "Chen Xiu."
