Chapter 175: Increasing the pressure
“You asked why Gu Master came to kill me? How can I know!” Facing Tie Ruo Nan's question, Fang Zheng blinked innocently.
“If you've done something, I hope you won't hide the truth. Because your words, even though they seem insignificant, can be very helpful to resolve this case,” the young girl said sincerely.
Fang Zheng shook his head. “I am also very confused. During that period, I was cultivating endlessly, so how could I pull a kill? But after that, the people around me realized that this evil Master Gu could be hired by the other two clans, to kill rising stars like myself. You also know the competition between us and the Bai clan and the Xiong clan. Especially the Xiong clan, they were the biggest suspects since they had once recruited the demon Master Gu into their clan. ”
” Xiong Clan huh .. “Tie Ruo Nan became a little desperate after hearing this, because the Xiong clan had already been obliterated by the wave of wolves. It seems that this advantage is also lost.
Suddenly, a murmur sounded from outside the room.
“Quickly, look there, isn't that a person from the Xiong clan?”
“I think the Xiong clan has been exterminated, how could any envoy come here ?!”
The appearance of the Xiong clan envoy led to lively discussions among the villages, as people talked to each other.
Soon, news came from the pavilion of the clan leader.
“Klan Xiong still has many survivors.”
“They retreat by themselves, using the Gu that their ancestors left behind, hiding many people at the same time, cheating death!”
“ this, retreat and avoid the battle, causing a wave of wolves to come at us.”
“Hmph, these people of the Xiong clan may look rough and big, but their hearts are cunning inside. Wanting to borrow the power of the wolf wave to weaken us, they are too despicable! “
The appearance of the Xiong clan envoy had caused the political distribution of Qing Mao's mountain to undergo a complete shift.
What was considered a two-sided competition between the Bai clan and the Gu Yue clan ultimately remained a three-way competition.
But people will understand once they think about it. The Xiong Clan had survived for hundreds of years without falling, they also had their own foundations. Which clan has no ancestors, and a trump card?
After the Xiong clan envoy left, Gu Yue Bo immediately held a meeting of the clan elders.
“ this Xiong clan, they are really not good. Unexpectedly they immediately retreated!”
“Indeed can't underestimate anyone. The Xiong Clan has always ranked behind our Bai clan and clan, and is the weakest among the troops on Qing Mao mountain. But to think they have such a scheme, we have to be more careful from now on. ”
” They want to borrow the power of the wolf wave to eliminate us. They almost got us this time, if not for those lightning lycan, we might not have lost so many elders. These people deserve to die! ”
“If it wasn't for the divine investigator Tie to appear, the two clan leaders might have already died. We can't just let them go.”
“Asking for compensation is a must. It was us and the Bai clan working together to solve the lightning lycan problem. But to request compensation, we must first discuss and formulate the amount.”
The clan elders spoke one after another, discussing until they had a conclusion.
The Gu Yue Clan was going to send an envoy towards the Xiong clan. They had to observe the rest of the Xiong clan's strength.
If the Xiong clan was strong, they would join the Bai clan. If the Xiong clan was weak, they might send people to eliminate them and steal the spirit spring.
“So, who is suitable enough to ship to Xiong clan?” Gu Yue Bo looked around, asking, “Which clan elder will bear this responsibility!”
The hall soon became quiet.
The clan elders looked at each other. No one wants to leave.
The internal conflict was reaching its peak right now, and it was the most important moment for the faction to split the cake of interests. If they went to the Xiong clan, their faction would be leaderless and the others would seize the opportunity. When they returned, everything would be decided, so at that time they would complain to whom?
“This old man feels that, to go to the Xiong clan, someone who has seniority and experience must leave, it must be someone who can maintain it on his own. Among all of us here, only elder Mo Chen can take on this role!” Gu Yue Yao Ji suddenly said.
Gu Yue Mo Chen snorted, reprimanded, “Talking about qualifications, LORDYao Ji has more experience than me. Especially in terms of fame, I cannot compete at all, I admit total defeat. Going to the Xiong clan, it looks like we will have trouble LORDYao Ji. ”
” Elder Mo Chen is very right, I recommend LORDYao Ji. “A clan elder stands up.
” I feel itLORDMo Chen is a more suitable candidate. “Other blisters immediately reprimand.
The scene was chaotic.
Gu Yue Bo stood on the leader's chair, staring coldly without making a sound.
The medicine faction already had the intention to unleash its own power, no longer under his control. Therefore he also did not want to help, and simply observed the scene.
This was the first contest between the medicinal class and the Mo faction.
Both have their own political allies, but the current situation is that both leaders make multiple compromises as well as profit exchanges. But overall, the drug class is stronger.
Gu Yue Yao Ji's reputation as well as the Chi faction's tendencies, caused this situation.
Gu Yue Bo stared coldly, noting in his heart the factions that each individual possessed.
As the leader of the clan, he did not want his authority to diminish, and these elders were his competitors. But now he decided to just observe, and yet attack.
Gu Yue Bo thought silently, turning her gaze towards Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan had been sitting in his chair, not saying a word.
“It looks like this Fang Yuan is not too close to the Mo faction, and has yet to get a mutual agreement on the distribution of interest. If not, he's already helping. Is this my chance?” Gu Yue Bo thought.
But at this moment, Fang Yuan suddenly stood up from his chair.
This action, attracted everyone's attention.
What he said next was shocking. “Go as a messenger, this is an important matter involving the survival of our clan. I am willing to go up, shoulder the responsibility as an envoy, and investigate the current state of the Xiong clan for our clan!”
“What?”
“Fang Yuan want to go?”
“What does this mean? Is he really stupid or stupid? Wasn't he afraid when he came back, all interests would already be shared!”
The clan elders all showed shocked expressions.
Fang Yuan had his own plan. If he went to the Xiong clan, he might be able to find an opportunity and trigger a conflict between the three clans. Even if he couldn't, this was a chance to leave.
“Wait! Anyone here could be an envoy except Fang Yuan himself!” The door suddenly opened and Tie Ruo Nan walked in, barging in.
Fang Yuan turned his body to look, and his sash shrank slightly. He saw the father and daughter of the Tie family enter, as well as the other two people behind them. One looked like Fang Yuan – was indeed his brother Gu Yue Fang Zheng, while the other was Gu Yue Jiang He.
“What heavenly investigator Tie should tell us today?” Gu Yue Bo stood up to greet him, her tone slightly displeased. This was Gu Yue's internal discussion, how could they barge in like that?
“Leader of the Gu Yue clan, as well as the other elders. My daughter has investigated the identity of the demon Master Gu who once attacked Gu Yue Fang Zheng,” Tie Xue Leng spoke.
“Oh? Is That ..”
“That evil Master, wasn't he instigated by the Xiong clan?”
“Is there a hidden story behind this?”
“Indeed, the real identity of this demon Master Gu was a hunter from the hamlet at the foot of the mountain. Only by chance did he manage to become Master Gu the demon, his name was Wang Er. The reason why he attacked Gu Yue Fang Zheng, was because of his brother Fang Yuan! ” Saying so, Tie Ruo Nan looked at Fang Yuan intently.
“My brother, to think you are such a person!” Fang Zheng stood on one side clenching his fists, showing anger in his eyes.
“What do you mean by this, young lady?” Gu Yue Mo Chen said in a serious voice.
“Don't tell me, Fang Yuan was the one who hired this demon Master Gu to kill his own brother Fang Zheng?” Gu Yue Yao Ji showed an excited expression.
Even Gu Yue Bo was surprised, as she adjusted her posture in her chair.
“You are all wrong.” Tie Ruo Nan shook his head. “Actually, Fang Yuan killed an innocent person, killing Wang's entire old family, causing Wang Er to take revenge. But Wang Er did not know that Fang Yuan had a twin brother, hence he mistook Fang Zheng as Fang Yuan, and attacked him for revenge. ”
” Young miss, all need proof, “a clan elder spoke.
“Of course I have proof. Gu Yue Jiang He, tell us everything you know.” Tie Ruo Nan prepared for this, not panicking.
Gu Yue Jiang He sighed. He looked at the father and daughter of the Tie family with fear, slowly walking forward and kneeling on the ground, crying, “This is the subordinate's negligence of duty, I seek the punishment of the clan leader!”
Gu Yue Bo's face was grim as water, “Say everything clearly first, don't hide anything from us!”
Back then, when Fang Yuan killed old man Wang's family, it was under Gu Yue Jiang He's jurisdiction, and only when he got to that place did he find it. Due to the evaluation of the clan, he withstood the matter and did not report it. Never had he thought that today, the matter would be revealed, dug up by Tie Ruo Nan.
“The truth is like this ..” Jiang He stuttered as he spoke, not adding any details to his description, very simple and honest.
In this time and place, he did not dare to lie. Fang Yuan was also a clan elder, so he did not dare to exaggerate the facts.
“I never thought the truth would be like this!”
“Fang Yuan killed Wang Er's father, and Wang Er came to seek revenge, but instead found Fang Zheng. So that's ..”
“Fang Zheng was innocently involved, and blocked the crisis for Fang Yuan.”
The clan elders whispered amongst themselves.
Fang Zheng's fist grew even tighter as anger grew in his heart. He couldn't help but growl at Fang Yuan, “Brother, how can you take people's lives so easily.The old man and the girl, they are innocent human beings. How can you cut them ?!”
Facing the accusations of his brother, Fang Yuan was indifferent, as if he had not heard them.
Gu Yue Fang Zheng was not his main point.
Fang Yuan looked at the father and son of the Tie family. Being able to discover the truth in such a short time, they were indeed heavenly sympathizers.
Regardless of what Gu worm they used, any method to make Jiang He submit and reveal his own secrets, they had their own way.
This ability made Fang Yuan even more certain that the matter of him killing Jia Jin Sheng, would definitely be discovered by the father and son duo Tie. It's just a matter of time. After all, this was Gu's world, where Gu could be used to commit crimes, and also used to solve crimes.
Pressure is increasing. . .
