"They were sucked away?!"
Mo Liang looked at the disciple of the Sixth Branch strangely. If many disciples didn't nod around him, he would definitely think that this disciple was lying through his teeth.
"Even if you are telling the truth, someone will prove it for you …"
Mo Liang took a deep breath and felt a headache. Who would believe it?
He could see that Su Jinnan valued these demon crystals more than his own life. If he knew that all the demon crystals mined by the Sixth Branch turned into stones, wouldn't he go crazy?
Su Jinnan was indeed crazy.
Su Jinnan lowered his head and suppressed the anger in his heart. He knelt on the ground and squeezed out two words from his teeth, "Old Ancestor!"
"You still know that I am your old ancestor."
The hawk-nosed elder who came suddenly snorted. A moment later, Su Dieyin floated over. Seeing the empty camp of the Seventh Branch, her expression changed slightly. However, she couldn't ask more questions in this situation.
"If Dieyin and Yuanhai didn't inform me secretly, how long are you going to keep it a secret?"
The hawk-nosed elder said coldly and looked at Su Jinnan with displeasure.
"Su Yuanhai also reported it secretly to the old ancestor?"
Su Dieyin was a little relieved when she heard the words. It seemed that it was not as she thought. Su Yuanhai should have left with others.
Just when Su Dieyin spoke, the hawk-nosed elder waved his sleeves and swept open the door of the camp warehouse under Su Jinnan's unwilling gaze. A smell of spiritual stones came to their faces.
The hawk-nosed elder, who was supposed to be happy, suddenly looked uglier than a pig's liver.
"Su Jinnan!!"
The hawk-nosed elder shouted. Before Su Jinnan could react, he saw a palm as big as a cattail leaf fan rapidly enlarging in front of him!
Slap!
Su Jinnan's right face was slapped hard, and he flew far away with his body. He lay on the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. He looked up dizzily with a confused look.
Why did the old ancestor hit me?
"Su Jinnan, how dare you!"
The hawk-nosed elder was sure that it was Su Jinnan. He appeared in front of Su Jinnan and was about to attack him again. Su Dieyin saw that the situation was not good and hurried to stop him.
"Old Ancestor, calm down. Is there any misunderstanding?"
"Misunderstanding?"
The hawk-nosed elder looked at Su Jinnan and sneered as if he was looking at a dead man, "Su Jinnan, how dare you play such tricks in front of me!"
Su Dieyin finally noticed that something was wrong. She quickly walked to the warehouse and gasped when she saw a warehouse full of stones and a few low-grade spiritual stones.
Did Su Jinnan … want to die?
Could it be Su Yuanhai?
Su Dieyin was worried. At this time, the hawk-nosed elder spoke again, "I thought Yuanhai's worry was unnecessary. I didn't expect that you would be so crazy for these demon crystals. You even deceived me!"
"Lie? Old Ancestor, I didn't lie to you! "
Su Jinnan sensed the killing intent in the old ancestor's words and finally panicked. He knelt down with a quiver and kowtowed again and again, "Old ancestor, please forgive me. It's my fault to conceal the demon crystals. But … Junior really didn't lie to you! "
"You dare to quibble?!"
The hawk-nosed elder picked up Su Jinnan and threw him in front of the warehouse, "How do you explain these stones?"
Su Jinnan was dumbfounded when he saw the warehouse full of stones. Then he shook his head crazily and shouted, "Old Ancestor, I didn't do it! It must be Su Yuanhai. He did it. I just got here and had no time to exchange the demon crystals in the warehouse! "
"I knew you would quibble like this."
The hawk-nosed elder didn't ease his expression at all. He slapped Su Jinnan heavily again. Su Jinnan flew far away and kept coughing up blood. This time, he was obviously more seriously injured than last time. He couldn't get up after a long time.
"Su Yuanhai is a good boy. He knows that he is unlucky and knows what he should take and what he shouldn't. In order to prove that he had nothing to do with the Demonic Crystals, he purposely gathered all the Qian Kun Rings of his disciples together. He even invited me to the seventh room for a while. My Divine Sense could not have missed any Demonic Qi. He did not take a single Demonic Crystal.
The hawk-nosed elder looked gloomy when he said this, "So, you still want to say that you didn't do it?!"
"I …"
Su Jinnan opened his mouth and only felt bitterness in his mouth. The bitterness reached his heart.
He turned his head and stared at Su Dieyin with resentment. It seemed that he wanted to vent all his grievances and resentment on Su Dieyin.
Su Dieyin frowned and thought that Su Jinnan was really crazy.
He dared to show hostility to her at this time. Wasn't he afraid of the old ancestor's anger?
Su Jinnan still wanted to live. The two slaps had completely woken him up. He got up and knelt on the ground. He bowed deeply to the hawk-nosed elder and said in a muffled voice,
"Old Ancestor, I didn't do it. Old Ancestor, please check it carefully and make a conclusion. If you really find out that I did it, I … am willing to die! "
Hearing this, the hawk-nosed elder's expression finally eased a little. He frowned and took Su Jinnan to the camp of the Sixth Branch.
"Su Yuanhai's demon crystals are lost. You can't lose yours too, can you? Put away the demon crystals first, and I will check it carefully. "
"Thank you, Old Ancestor!"
Su Jinnan breathed a sigh of relief. It didn't feel good to have a trip to the gates of hell.
Su Dieyin, who was behind him, suddenly had a bad feeling when she heard this.
Could it be …
As soon as this thought flashed through Su Dieyin's mind, she heard the old ancestor's angry roar from the camp of the Sixth Branch!
"Su Jinnan! You're courting death!! "
Boom!!
In front of the warehouse of the Sixth Branch, a palm print appeared on Su Jinnan's chest. Then he flew backward like a cannonball. The huge force made his eyes protrude. He fell on his back, and blood gushed out like it was free.
Boom!
The camp seemed to be flattened by Su Jinnan's body. For a moment, countless disciples of the Sixth Branch were killed and wounded.
The old ancestor was really angry.
Seeing the bright red in the ruins, Su Dieyin couldn't help but turn pale and feel cold. She involuntarily retreated to the outside of the camp of the Sixth Branch and watched the development of the situation.
"Cough, cough, cough …"
In the ruins, Su Jinnan crawled out, struggling at death's door. He stared at the warehouse full of stones. He couldn't understand why those valuable demon crystals suddenly turned into stones overnight?!
Mo Liang stood at the side, his face pale. Why did the old ancestor of the Su Family come here at this time … How could he explain the absurd reason?
The hawk-nosed elder glanced at Mo Liang's face for a moment. Then he moved his eyes away and walked to Su Jinnan. He said coldly, "Where are the demon crystals? Tell me, and I will spare your life for the sake of your years of service to the Su Family! If you don't tell me … you will die! "
Su Jinnan's face was terribly pale. He still didn't know what had happened. But in order to save his life, he had to brace himself and said,
"Old Ancestor, I wouldn't dare to deceive you even if I ate a bear's heart and a leopard's gall. I can guarantee with my life that none of those demon crystals fell into my hands. Someone must have hindered me and wanted me to cut off my arms and legs. Old Ancestor, please think twice!"
"You didn't deceive me? You sure have a glib tongue, pushing everything away cleanly. "
The hawk-nosed elder snorted coldly, but his face softened.
"I won't easily kill you. Since it is you who have committed the disappearance of the demon crystals, you should atone for your crime by meritorious deeds. I give you three days to find out the whereabouts of the demon crystals. If you can't find them, the whole sixth branch will pay with their lives! Only in this way can I calm the anger of those who come from other big regions. Do you understand? "
"Other big regions?"
Su Jinnan's eyes widened and he spat out more blood, "How could it be? I clearly …"
"Humph!" The hawk-nosed elder waved his sleeves, turned around, and scolded coldly, "You are so stupid! There is no impenetrable wall in the world. Do you really think that the sixth branch is really an iron plate? The matter of the demon crystals has long been known by the practitioners of other big regions and even holy sects. You concealed it and brought great trouble to the Su Family!
If the Su Family is destroyed because of you, you … Su Jinnan, will be the biggest sinner of the Su Family. Think about it with your blockhead! "
Hearing this, Su Jinnan was completely stunned, "It's just a demon crystal mine …"
He didn't expect that a moment of greed would put him in a desperate situation.
"Head of the Sixth Branch, you … take care of yourself."
Su Dieyin sighed and turned to look at the hawk-nosed elder. There was a trace of pleading in her beautiful eyes.
The hawk-nosed elder wanted to go directly back to the main branch. But when he saw Su Dieyin's eyes, he stopped and sighed, "Well, I'll go to the second branch. I haven't visited the second branch for a long time since your grandma died. By the way, I can see how Su Jiuzhou's injury is. I didn't expect you to praise her so much."
"Thank you, Old Ancestor!"
Su Dieyin was overjoyed and responded with joy, "Thank you, Old Ancestor!"
"Ho-ho …"
The hawk-nosed elder smiled and temporarily put the matter of the demon crystals aside. He waved his sleeves and disappeared with Su Dieyin instantly. Only the wailing from the camp echoed in the Black Stone Forest.
Mo Liang stood still like a sculpture. When the hawk-nosed elder disappeared from his sensing range, he breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had come back to life.
He looked at the disciples of the Sixth Branch lying on the ground. After taking two steps, he suddenly found that his back was cold and wet.
"It's right that I don't join any sect or family."
After this incident, he was more determined to stick to his idea.
While thinking, Mo Liang walked to Su Jinnan, helped him up, and fed him a healing elixir.
Su Jinnan refined the elixir for a while, and his face became ruddy. But he didn't continue to heal himself. Instead, he opened his eyes and said calmly, "Fellow Practitioner Mo, you can go now. Don't mention that you have been here after you leave. "
Mo Liang was slightly stunned, "Head of the Sixth Branch …"
A trace of mockery flashed across Su Jinnan's pale face, "Old Ancestor didn't vent his anger on you. Don't you understand?"
Mo Liang was horrified, "You mean …"
Su Jinnan smiled bitterly. What he said immediately made Mo Liang fall into an ice cave, "I … violated the taboo. It's fine if I can hand over the demon crystals to make amends. If I can't, the Su Family must give an explanation to the practitioners of the big regions. I'm the best scapegoat. But if the old ancestor hurt you, there will be more trouble. So … you escaped. "
