Chapter 55: Exactly the words I want to hear!

The moon, round like a wheel, was faintly visible among the floating clouds.

The academy elder hurriedly walked down the street, his face barely visible under the flickering moonlight.

It was difficult to survive in this world, and the Gu Master missing was common. With his vast life experience, the academy elder knew that under normal circumstances, this kind of sudden disappearance often meant death.

Anyone can die, but Jia Jin Sheng can't! Especially not dying in Gu Yue Village.

His identity was special, his father became the head of the Jia family, his brother was the fourth rank Gu Master Jia Fu.

A rank four Master Gu had a yellow golden primordial essence, and they possessed unreasonable fighting strength. Within the Gu Yue clan, only the clan leader was ranked fourth and could match him, while the other clan elders were all ranked third.

The head of the Jia family was at a higher cultivation level. He was a rank five, and under his leadership the Jia family rose to prosperity, becoming a large-sized clan and possessing the resources of an entire mountain, with a large number of clans. Compared to them, the Gu Yue clan was only of medium size.

If the two clans fought, Gu Yue village would definitely be harmed.

The most important part was, if this matter were to spread, the reputation of the Gu Yue clan would be tarnished. Many traders are wary of choosing their path. Without interaction with merchants, the excess local resources of the Gu Yue clan would have no way to sell, and the external resources they needed would not be able to be bought. As time goes by, they will definitely weaken.

"This matter is severe, if we don't handle it well, it will be a disaster!" The academy elder anxiously rushed towards the pavilion of the clan head.

As soon as he stepped into the conference hall in the pavilion of the clan head, the academy elder felt a serious and solemn atmosphere.

The main seat was occupied by the current clan leader Gu Yue Bo. The fat and short Jia Fu took five to six followers with him and stood in the middle of the hall, taking an accusative position.

Under the bright light of the lights, the serious faces of the elders standing beside their seats were clearly visible.

Jia Fu was a Rank four Master Gu, and since he did not sit down, this third rank clan elder naturally did not dare to sit down.

This was the deterrent force of Rank four Master Gu.

It is also a form of respect for power.

"Greetings…." The clan elders were about to salute, but they were stopped by the hands of the clan leader Gu Yue Bo.

Gu Yue Bo who had gray white hair was using her finger to rub her temples, an expression of distress on her face, "I won't say more about this matter, either, the clan academy is always under your supervision. Let me ask, where is Gu Yue Fang Yuan?”

The academy elder was shocked. Internally he thought, how does this have anything to do with that Fang Yuan boy?

He replied politely, “At this time, he should be cultivating in the academy dormitory.”

The clan leader sighed, “Sister Jia is very suspicious now, he thinks that the disappearance of his brother Jia Jin Sheng has something to do with Fang Yuan. I'm ordering you to go and bring him here immediately. ”

The academy elder shuddered in his heart. "Yes!"

He understood the severity of the matter, and hurriedly saluted before he turned around and left.

"Sister Jia, Fang Yuan will be brought here soon, sit down." Gu Yue Bo pointed to a chair nearby and said to Jia Fu.

Jia Fu laughed bitterly, cupping his fists towards Gu Yue Bo. “I apologize to Brother Gu Yue! I was really anxious back then, it had been days since I saw my brother, I was afraid of the worst. I really can't wait.”

There are some things that, only after the loss can be understood.

Jia Fu only realized it in these few days, the reason why his father paired him with Jia Jin Sheng's burden for the caravan.

That's to test its nature. Seeing if he could, while suppressing his brother, recalling their kinship, and simultaneously taking care of this little sister.

If Jia Jin Sheng was dead now, how would his father view him?

When he realized this, he immediately held an investigation in the caravan, and quickly set his target at Gu Yue village.

He rushed back without a break.

Now that he stood up, reluctant to sit down, it was to create the impression that he was determined to get the culprit. This equally put pressure on the Gu Yue clan as well as giving his father a form of reassurance when he returned to the Jia family.

"Reporting to the clan leader, Master, Fang Yuan has been brought here." Quickly, the academy elder brought Fang Yuan into the hall.

"Gu Yue Fang Yuan saluted the clan elder, Lord Jia Fu, and the various clan elders," Fang Yuan said with an expressionless face.

"That's it?" Jia Fu coldly observed Fang Yuan, at the same time, asking a female Master Gu.

This female Master Gu was the one whom Fang Yuan bought the purple gold stone from in the gambling den.

“Yes, that's it! There was no mistake, ”Master Gu the woman looked at Fang Yuan, saying confidently.

Jia Fu nodded. Immediately his gaze was like two steel blades, slashing at Fang Yuan. But he did not interrogate openly, as this was Gu Yue's village, so he had to respect the leader of the Gu Yue clan.

Clan leader Gu Yue had a serious expression. He knew that Jia Fu was deliberately talking to the female Master Gu out loud; it was not only to confirm Fang Yuan's identity, but also to assert his motive.

He implied to clan head Gu Yue that he had evidence in his hands, "I have enough confidence, so you better not defend your own clan too much."

This caused some displeasure in the heart of clan leader Gu Yue, thinking, "You Jia Fu lost your brother, it was your fault from the start. Now that you come to our Gu Yue village with an accusative attitude, do you think my Gu Yue clan can be easily bullied? My Gu Yue Clan is impartial and works based on logic, but make no mistake that this is a weakness!’

Thinking of this, he did not immediately interrogate Fang Yuan, but loudly said to the female Master Gu, “Did you see clearly? I'm not afraid to tell you this, but Fang Yuan has a twin brother who looks so identical to him, are you really sure it's him?

The female Master Gu was only rank one, and under Gu Yue Bo's pressure, she immediately showed a hesitant and nervous expression.

Jia Fu frowned and took a step forward, blocking him from Gu Yue Bo's sight. Cupping his fists, he said, "Brother Gu Yue, I have always respected the Gu Yue clan. Especially the leader of the first and fourth clans of the Gu Yue clan, both of them were rank five powerhouses. Someone built a clan from the beginning, where he went through hard times and created the hundred year foundation of the Gu Yue family. The other was a kind hero, because to protect his clan he sacrificed himself, and was worthy of respect. Brother Gu Yue, as the clan leader, I am sure you will act impartially, please interrogate this Fang Yuan.

Hearing her tone soften, Gu Yue Bo nodded, but her heart had already decided.

If this Fang Yuan was the culprit, then he would hand it over. After all he was only C class, there was no harm in losing him. As long as it is able to resolve this dispute.

If Fang Zheng were to do so, Fang Yuan was also to blame. Fang Zheng was an A-grade genius, the only one in three years. The clan higher-ups still hoped to nurture him greatly to fight against Bai Ning Bing from the village of the Bai clan.

"Fang Yuan, don't be nervous." Clan leader Gu Yue smiled amiably, using a gentle tone towards Fang Yuan, "Let me ask, do you know the information about that Jia Jin Sheng?"

"Who is Jia Jin Sheng?" Fang Yuan looked up and said calmly.

"He lied!" The female Master Gu from the gambling den screamed just as Fang Yuan finished his question.

The people in the discussion hall, after hearing this scream, frowned and all looked towards him.

The female Master Gu pointed towards Fang Yuan, showing a restless expression, "Here it is, here it is! In our gambling den, he bought six purple gold stones, and the fifth was a mud-skin frog. Young master Jia saw it and tried to use five hundred ancient stones to purchase it. This left a great impression on me, even if a year or two passed, I would not forget it. Not only me, but the other Master Gu in the gambling den also saw it. ”

"It ..." The smile of clan leader Gu Yue disappeared, showing a stiff expression and dragging his question towards Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan just nodded now, showing a hint of nervousness, and pretended to suddenly realize, “Oh it was him. Alright, if he is Jia Jin Sheng, then I know him. But after the gambling den incident, I did not see him again.”

"He's lying again!" This time, it was not the female Master Gu, but the male Master Gu who called out in public.

Fang Yuan looked towards him, and as if he recognized him, showed a surprised expression, but quickly tried to hide it.

The change in his expression was reflected in everyone's eyes.

Everyone started thinking.

"Dear gentlemen, I'm an employee at the wine shop." The male Master Gu first clenched his fists to everyone, and then excitedly pointed towards Fang Yuan, "That night, I saw clearly in the wine shop, I said, he sat down with young master Jia Jin Sheng, and the two of them secretly chatted for a long time. !”

As soon as he said so, the hall exploded into a gentle discussion.

The academy elder used a cold gaze and looked at Fang Yuan.

Clan master Gu Yue moved back slightly, slowly leaning back on the large chair.

"How did that happen!" Fang Yuan showed a clear expression of panic, hurriedly saying, “The wine shop has so many people, how can you recognize me just like that? You may have wrong yourself! ”

"Haha, I'm definitely not wrong." The male Master Gu smiled, his gaze staring at Fang Yuan, at this moment he felt extremely confident.

“Not to mention young master Jia Jin Sheng who came to our wine shop, we have to take care of him carefully. Even if it wasn't him, I'd still recognize you, because you've given me a strong impression!

Saying so, he raised his eyebrows, saying in satisfaction, “Do you still remember? That day you came to our shop, wanting a cup of monkey wine. But you just drank a sip. After that you release the Liquor worm and feed the remaining monkey wine into it. I saw the Liquor worm and was very agitated, wanted to buy it from you but you refused to sell it and left immediately!”

“Good, exactly as I want to hear.” Fang Yuan laughed coldly in his heart, but showed a shocked expression on his face, subconsciously taking a step back.

"The liquor worm!" The eyes of the academy elder behind Fang Yuan shone.

But he quickly frowned again, and inevitably asked, "Fang Yuan, where did you get that Liquor worm from?"

Fang Yuan clenched his fists, gritting his teeth, but refused to answer.

The surrounding clan elders became furious, starting to frown.

"Fang Yuan, do you know the trouble you caused!"

"Speak, what's really going on?"

“Tell us about what you know, admit. This Liquor Worm, does it belong to Jia Jin Sheng?”

“How can it be his? Liquor worms were clearly obtained by themselves! I opened it!” Fang Yuan suddenly raised his head, his expression rising, as if he could not bear such slander, and shouted loudly with angry emotions.
