Hearing her words, the Elder of the South Courtyard gritted his teeth.
"What referee! The inner hall has its own rules. Even you can't interfere! "
Although he was frightened by the man behind her, he couldn't be a coward when it came to protecting his own interests.
On this point, Lin Mengya admired his courage.
Long Tianhao furrowed his brows.
His master had warned him that it was not suitable for them to get involved in the inner hall.
But they couldn't be separated completely.
What's more, they would go to the ancient tribe soon. If they could stabilize the inner hall now, he wouldn't have to worry about the Divine Hall for the time being.
Lin Mengya quietly communicated with her wife with her eyes. She looked at the four elders, cleared her throat, and said, "This matter is of great importance.
His Highness and I can't make the right decision in a short time. "
Was that a refusal?
The Elder of the South Courtyard breathed a sigh of relief, while the faces of the two from the East Courtyard and the West Courtyard changed slightly.
But Long Tianhao immediately continued, "But we decided that the most urgent thing now is not to choose a successor, but to find out the current Chief Elder's situation.
If he really met with misfortune, it's not too late for you to argue about it. If you act too hastily, it will only make people think that you have something to do with the Chief Elder's disappearance. "
The Elder of the South Courtyard anxiously retorted, "How can we harm our own Chief Elder?"
Lin Mengya glanced at him and said leisurely, "Maybe you think that the Chief Elder doesn't listen to you enough, so it's not impossible for you to promote another Chief Elder."
"Nonsense!"
The Elder of the South Courtyard was so angry that his face turned red. He slammed the table and stood up excitedly. But he was frightened by Qinghu's look and fell on the chair.
"This, this is impossible!" The Elder of the South Courtyard still tried to refute, "We share honor and disgrace with the Chief Elder. Why would we harm him?"
This was actually true.
Although the Chief Elder couldn't openly favor the South Courtyard, they were connected.
At least in the years when he was in office, the South Courtyard had indeed benefited the most.
"And the three of you." Lin Mengya looked at the three and said eloquently, "Although the North Yard and the South Yard are partners, the relationship between the South Yard and the Chief Elder is not as close as the South Yard.
There's no need to mention the East and West Courtyards. I'm sure the benefits the South and North Courtyards have obtained are enough to make you jealous.
In that case, wouldn't everyone have a motive? "
As soon as she said that, the South Yard looked at the Third Yard suspiciously.
Seeing that she had achieved the desired effect, she gave the right to speak to Long Tianhao.
"Although it is possible for all of you, you are all members of the Inner Palace. Naturally, you do not wish for the Inner Palace to fall into chaos. So, it's possible that it wasn't your four academies who did it.
The only thing we can do now is to find the Great Elder. At the very least, we have to confirm whether he's dead or alive. "
Although the four academies were suspicious of each other, they had to rely on each other.
After hearing what the two of them had said, Lin Mengya actually felt that it made a lot of sense.
"But, the Great Elder is indeed missing." The Elder of the South Courtyard said awkwardly.
Even those from the West and East courtyards said, "We've searched the entire Inner Hall, but we can't find the Great Elder."
Therefore, they began to tear each other apart, trying to seize the opportunity to gain greater benefits.
Just when everyone fell into silence, the aloof Elder of the North Courtyard spoke.
。
"The Great Elder disappeared after meeting your father." The Elder of the North Courtyard glanced at the two of them coldly.
"I heard that your master is very prestigious. After entering the Holy Hall, he can directly obtain the position of the Highest Elder. It seems that he is also determined to get the position of the Great Elder, right? "
At this moment, the four academies focused their suspicion on the two of them.
But Long Tianhao said indifferently, "If my master wants the position of the Great Elder, no one can stop him."
Although these words were arrogant, it was also the capital of the two of them.
The Elder of the North Courtyard narrowed his eyes and said, "Why?"
"Because he is my master." Long Tianhao retorted without hesitation.
The two strong and cold men fought with their eyes, which seemed to make the room temperature drop several degrees.
"Also, his daughter-in-law is me, Gong Ya."
Her strong interjection made the Elder of the North Courtyard's eyes flicker.
Then, he could only reluctantly take back his words.
Ha, a weakling who relies on women!
But in his heart, he inevitably felt a little unbalanced.
Why didn't he have such a strong daughter-in-law?
But everything that that person did before, after all, still left a shadow.
Long Tianhao thought for a moment and said, "My father … that person, although I introduced him to the Inner Hall before. However, someone had let him in ahead of time. You four should give me an explanation for this. "
Unexpectedly, the four of them all had a puzzled look on their faces.
Long Tianhao raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, don't you four know?"
Although the Elder of the South Courtyard jumped around the most happily, there were some reasons.
After all, the Great Elder disappeared after that person left. He had always suspected whether he was instructed by the Palace Master.
But he didn't expect that it was not the case!
"You were the one who recommended him, so shouldn't you be the one who found someone to send him in?"
Long Tianhao shook his head.
When he put on a serious face, he was the kind of person that people had to believe.
"Indeed, it wasn't me. I thought it was everyone here."
The four people had also experienced a lot. They knew that there was no need for Long Tianhao and Lin Mengya to lie about this kind of thing.
If they really wanted the position of the Great Elder, they would not have proposed to find him first.
Instead, they should use unscrupulous means to provoke internal strife, so that they could reap the benefits.
Thinking of this, the four people pondered for a moment, and then the Elder of the North Courtyard said with a serious face, "I heard that he intends to form an alliance with the South Courtyard."
Because they were allies, the Elder of the North Courtyard was not worried.
But the South Courtyard immediately retorted, "But I heard that he is more inclined to the North Courtyard!"
The East Courtyard and the West Courtyard were also like this.
Therefore, they turned a blind eye to it.
After all, if the other party belonged to their allies, at least they would not be harmed.
At the same time, if they intervened again, they would make their partners unhappy.
This was not a good thing for the four courtyards.
"It seems that you have all been used." Lin Mengya concluded.
This time, the four courtyards were dumbfounded.
However, after that, they also felt a deep chill.
Who was it that could toy with the four departments of the Inner Palace in the hands of the Chief?
"So, if you continue to fight among yourselves, I'm afraid that the Great Elder will not be elected, and the strength of the four courtyards will be worn down.
Don't say that I have no intention to intervene, when it is really hopeless, I will not harm the interests of the Divine Hall for you. "
As a junior, Long Tianhao's words made the four of them blush.
At the same time, they also noticed something unusual.
Especially the Elder of the South Courtyard, he quickly recalled one thing.
In fact, they were the most anxious when the Great Elder was in trouble.
Previously, he also focused all his attention on finding the Great Elder.
But at some point, someone beside him came to report that the other three courtyards, especially their sworn enemy, the West Courtyard, were trying to elect a new Great Elder.
Therefore, he immediately changed his focus and fought with the other party.
If it were not for the reminder of the Temple Master, they would really suspect each other, and eventually both sides would suffer losses.
The other Temple Masters also looked the same.
Lin Mengya looked around and only felt that these old guys were even more childish than her sons.
Oh, her sons were all little geniuses.
"Forget it, I don't want to compete with this group of ordinary people."
They did not know that the four people, who could not even be compared with a child, now had extremely complicated feelings.
Even the Elder of the South Courtyard was not so resistant to the couple.
But more or less, it was a little awkward.
"Then, how do you think we should find the Great Elder?" The Elder of the South Courtyard asked reluctantly.
Lin Mengya did not deliberately ridicule their bad taste, but asked normally, "Did the Great Elder do anything unusual before he disappeared?"
The Elder of the South Courtyard immediately said, "There was nothing unusual, but before this, he had been to the forbidden area once."
Upon hearing these two words, the expressions of the other three elders became somewhat unnatural.
The reason why the "forbidden area" was a forbidden area must have a secret that could not be known by others.
Although Lin Mengya was not a person who liked adventure, the word "forbidden area" made her feel a little itchy, but that was all.
"Then, in this forbidden area, is there anything that can pose a threat to the Great Elder?" She asked.
At this time, the Elder of the East Courtyard said, "The forbidden area … None of us have entered it. So far, only the Great Elder can enter and exit it. However, when the Great Elder came out of the forbidden area, he was safe and sound. This is something that many people saw. "
The other three courtyards also expressed their agreement.
This meant that the Great Elder was sure that he disappeared after coming out of the forbidden area.
Lin Mengya thought for a while and continued to ask, "Then, how exactly did he disappear?"
At this time, the Elder of the South Courtyard said with an obscure expression, "Originally, after the Great Elder came out of the forbidden area, he was listless as if he was sick. Later, he said that he wanted to go out for a walk, so he left his attendants behind. After that, he disappeared, and no one saw where he went. "
She asked again, "Is it possible that the Great Elder went out and didn't tell you? Maybe he will come back in a few days? "
However, the Elder of the South Courtyard did not agree with her.
"The Great Elder would not leave for no reason." The Elder of the South Courtyard answered firmly.
But Lin Mengya thought it was very likely.
"Don't be so sure. After all, the Great Elder may have been stimulated by something, so he wanted to go out for a walk and get some fresh air."
