After a pause, the Golden Condor leader continued, "In fact, the Golden Condor in front of you is the eldest son of the original clan leader of the Golden Condor Clan."
Original clan leader?
Hu Li immediately grasped the gist of the situation when she heard the Golden Condor leader's words.
The Golden Condor leader nodded. "That's right. Just as you guessed, our great leader overthrew the Golden Condor King and became the new Golden Condor King, so …"
Even though the Golden Condor leader did not finish his sentence, Hu Li already understood what he meant.
Frowning, Hu Li said, "So, he did not do anything and did not make any mistakes. You want to kill him just because he is the child of the original Golden Condor King, right?"
The Golden Condor leader replied to Hu Li's question, "That's right. If we don't remove the roots, they will grow again. No matter what … he must die!"
Hu Li shook her head as she looked at the slightly recovered Golden Condor on the shaft of the carriage. "If he had done something wrong, I might have handed him over to you. However, he did not do anything. I cannot do that!"
The Golden Condor leader frowned when he heard Hu Li's words. "Why … does the Heavenly Fox Clan want to interfere with the internal affairs of other clans?"
No …
As soon as the Golden Condor leader finished speaking, the two Sky Fox Clan Protectors behind Hu Li abruptly cried out.
Looking at Hu Li solemnly, the Left Guardian, who had a slightly higher status among the two Guardians of the Heavenly Fox Clan, said resolutely, "Your Highness, the Heavenly Fox Clan has a rule. No matter what the reason, we are not allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of other clans!"
Hu Li was stunned when she heard the Left Guardian's words.
Hu Li looked at the Left Guardian blankly and said in confusion, "I have no intention of interfering with their internal affairs. I just want to protect this innocent Golden Condor."
The Left Guardian shook her head when she heard Hu Li's explanation. "Now that we are in the Heavenly Fragrance Carriage and the two of us are here, we represent the glory and dignity of the Heavenly Fox Clan."
The Right Guardian nodded and said, "Unless you leave the Heavenly Fragrance Chariot and the two of us leave as well, our every move represents the Heavenly Fox Clan!"
Hearing this, on the shaft of the carriage, the Golden Eagle that had just recovered but had only recovered thirty to forty percent stood up with difficulty.
After bowing respectfully to Hu Li, the Golden Eagle said, "Many thanks to Princess Yun for saving my life, but … this is also my fate. I will not trouble Princess to protect me."
As he spoke, the golden eagle turned around and glared angrily at the other thirteen golden eagles. His eyes shone with hatred.
It was these traitors who stole the throne of the Golden Condor Clan and killed their entire family!
Diao Jiu's family had a few thousand people, but he was the only one left.
Yet, he was unable to avenge himself. In fact, he couldn't even protect his own life.
With his strength, if it was a one-on-one fight, none of the thirteen golden eagles would be his match.
Even if it was a one-on-two fight, or even a one-on-three fight, he would still have a high chance of winning!
But now, at such a close distance, surrounded by thirteen golden eagles, he didn't even have a chance to fight back.
Although Diao Jiu knew that Princess Yun, who was famous throughout the world, had the intention of protecting him, he was not the only one.
But it was clear that the Heavenly Fox Clan's rules stated that no matter what, the Heavenly Fox Clan would never interfere with the internal affairs of other clans.
The current situation was that the two protectors of the Heavenly Fox Clan would never get involved in this matter.
Even if the 13 golden eagles tore him to pieces in front of the two protectors of the Heavenly Fox Clan, they would never do anything about it.
If they did, it would be equivalent to declaring war on the Golden Condor Clan!
The Heavenly Fox Clan was not afraid of the Golden Condor Clan.
But if the Heavenly Fox Clan tried to interfere with the internal affairs of other clans, the Heavenly Fox Clan would be the first to be exterminated!
The Heavenly Fox Clan could not interfere with the internal affairs of other clans. That was the bottom line.
Once this bottom line was crossed, the foundation of the Heavenly Fox Clan's existence would be completely lost.
The Heavenly Fox Clan was the military advisor of all clans. If they wanted to interfere with the internal affairs of other clans, wouldn't the entire world belong to the Heavenly Fox Clan?
Therefore, the Heavenly Fox Clan would never dare to cross this bottom line.
As for Princess Yun, even if she wanted to protect him, it would be meaningless.
After all, Princess Yun was still young. Her cultivation level and strength were not high.
Most importantly, Princess Yun, who had the bloodline of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, was not strong in actual combat. In fact, she was negligible.
Looking at Princess Yun's pained and conflicted expression, Diao Jiu was grateful for her friendship.
Unfortunately, no matter how much she wanted to protect him, there was no way she could do it.
The rules were dead. No one dared to break them.
The thirteen golden eagles would never dare to attack the Heavenly Fragrance Chariot!
Once they attacked, it would be equivalent to declaring war on the Heavenly Fox Clan.
Once the war started, the Golden Condor Clan would become the public enemy of all clans. There was no other outcome other than extermination.
For the same reason, the two Guardians of the Heavenly Fox Clan would never dare to interfere.
Once they interfered, it would be equivalent to the Heavenly Fox Clan interfering with the internal affairs of other clans!
Once the Heavenly Fox Clan interfered with the internal affairs of other clans, the Heavenly Fox Clan would be exterminated!
Diao Jiu cupped his fists at Hu Li and said, "Princess Yun's deep friendship, Diao Jiu can only repay it in the next life. Farewell …"
With that, Diao Jiu turned around and was about to rush out of the Heavenly Fragrance Chariot to fight his mortal enemy!
Wait …
Seeing this, Hu Li abruptly let out a shout.
Her eyes shone brightly. At the last moment, Hu Li finally made a decision.
Although this gamble was related to the ownership of Chu Xingyun, Chu Xingyun was still a very important person.
But no matter what, Hu Li had her own code of conduct and moral standards.
Hu Li knew that all she had to do was close her eyes and everything would be over soon.
But Hu Li also knew that if she really closed her eyes and let everything pass, she would never forgive herself in this lifetime.
Although life was precious, although Chu Xingyun was very important, but … she could not give up her basic principles because of this!
Otherwise, even if she married Chu Xingyun as she wished, so what? She would never forgive herself in this lifetime.
Taking a deep breath, Hu Li looked down and searched. Then, she turned around and said to the two Guardians, "Thank you, Guardians, for your protection over the years. Now … please take us to that mountain peak."
What! Princess Yun, you …
Hearing Hu Li's words, the two Guardians were shocked.
Hu Li said, "No matter what, I cannot watch a kind and innocent person be cruelly killed. So … I will protect Diao Jiu in my own name!"
Looking at Hu Li's determined face, the two Guardians looked at each other and sighed in unison.
After being together for so many years, they knew Hu Li very well.
Although on the surface, Hu Li looked very weak and had a very gentle personality. She could be said to be as gentle as water.
