Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of shared sorrow, after all, Chen Xifeng's family was not weak, as they were the fastest-rising force in Kyoto recently.
Among the ten clans of the Heavenly Dao, they are considered to be of average level.
But they never expected that their entire family would be wiped out!
"It's one thing to wipe out an entire family, but to strip the corpses naked and throw them into the Elders' Council Hall is a blatant slap in our face!"
Li Gong snorted coldly.
He jumped directly through the window onto the plaza below.
Behind them, representatives from several major factions, including the Iron Heart Hall, the Water Flower Society, and the Four Spirits Society, rushed out, and their subordinates, having received the news, also rushed towards the square in front.
Lin Jinglong was preparing to jump off the windowsill.
But Huangfu Kong pulled him back.
He said in a low voice, "Be careful this time. You and Tantai Yu are both targets of Tianlang City."
"Why me and Tantai Yu?"
Lin Jinglong and Tantai Yu were both puzzled.
Huangfu Kong chuckled.
"In the eyes of Tianlang City, your two families are the weakest among the ten clans. Their main goal is not to dismantle the ten clans of the Heavenly Dao, but to force me to submit and agree to join them."
"So killing Chen Xifeng isn't enough; you have to kill a few more families before you can force me to back down."
"You are the weakest, so naturally we will target you."
Lin Jinglong twitched the corner of his mouth.
He shook his head and said, "You said before that you kept the Xuanling Temple alive because they were the strongest and most flamboyant, and could draw fire for the other families. Why is Tianlang City now more willing to deal with us, the weakest of the three?"
Tantai Yu listened to these words and seemed to be deep in thought.
Huangfu Kong laughed heartily.
"That's because Chen Bagu bullies the weak and fears the strong. The people who really want to dismantle the Ten Heavenly Clans are stronger than him and are more secretive. If they make a move, they will definitely target Xuanling Temple, and even I will be their target."
Lin Jinglong was stunned for a moment.
So there were other forces hiding behind the scenes?
He nodded and jumped off the windowsill with Tantai Yu.
People from the Heavenly Dao Supreme Alliance and hidden families have also come out. All the forces have brought more than three hundred people, all of whom are top-notch martial artists.
But this time, there were a thousand people standing in front of them!
There were three people leading the group on the other side.
Chen Xifeng's body was right in front of the three men.
Standing in the center was an old acquaintance of Lin Jinglong.
"Mr. Corpse?"
Lin Jinglong smiled as he looked at the black-robed old corpse opposite him.
The person still reeked of a strong stench of death.
He also noticed Lin Jinglong, whose gaze beneath his hood was particularly fierce. He kicked Chen Xifeng's corpse from the ground and brought it in front of Lin Jinglong and the others.
"The Chen clan, one of the Ten Heavenly Clans, has been wiped out, which proves that the Ten Heavenly Clans selected by the Elders Council are nothing but rotten fish and shrimp."
"Huangfu Kong, why don't you come out and give us an explanation?"
"What you're doing is so unfair!"
Huangfu Kong landed in front of the crowd.
He looked at Mr. Corpse and said in a dignified voice, "The Heavenly Wolf City has invaded the Ten Clans of Heaven and exterminated the Chen family. Their crimes are unforgivable. The Elders' Council will exterminate you all!"
Upon hearing this, the two people beside Mr. Corpse began to frown.
Huangfu Kong's attitude seemed to differ from what Tianlang City had said. Both of them were allies of Tianlang City, and one of the young men stepped forward.
He cupped his hands and said to Huangfu Kong, "Elder, I am Qin Dao, the young leader of the Hegemon Alliance. Both Tianlang City and the Hegemon Alliance feel that the selection of the Ten Heavenly Clans this time is too unfair."
"Isn't it inappropriate for the Grand Elder to make all these decisions unilaterally?"
"Shouldn't it be based on merit? Why are you the one calling out names?"
Another representative also stepped forward.
They were all representatives of forces that were not elected.
Besides representing their own faction, they also represented the more than a thousand people behind them. They also felt that the Ten Clans of Heaven were unfair, but they also understood that their strength was not enough to qualify them to join.
However, he was then misled by the people of Tianlang City into participating in the massacre of the Chen family.
Naturally, it was all for the purpose of gaining benefits from Sirius City.
Once Sirius City or its allied forces successfully join the Council of Elders, they will also reap considerable benefits.
Huangfu Kong heard this.
His gaze swept over the two of them.
"The Hegemony Alliance and the Ancient Martial Arts Qingyun Sect... you two families have colluded with Tianlang City and are no longer qualified to join the Ten Clans of Heavenly Dao."
"you……"
The representatives of those two factions both changed their expressions.
Qin Dao, the young leader of the Hegemony Alliance, had a gloomy expression.
Huangfu Kong's attitude was much tougher than they had imagined. They had thought that by killing Chen Xifeng, they could bring a large number of forces from the capital to put pressure on Huangfu Kong.
This could force Huangfu Kong to give up a spot.
It doesn't even matter whether the spot belongs to Tianlang City or not. In any case, Tianlang City took the lead in this matter, and Huangfu Kong really has no reason to let them join the Ten Clans of Heavenly Dao, because that would infringe on the authority of the Elders' Council.
However, each side should back down, allowing them to dominate the alliance, or for the Qingyun Sect to join the Ten Heavenly Clans, with Tianlang City standing behind them.
This way, they had an example to follow, and Huangfu Kong could save face.
Wouldn't it be better if everyone were happy?
Huangfu Kong waved his hand.
"The reason we didn't invite your two families is not only because we discovered your collusion with Tianlang City long ago, but also because you are not strong enough. You are not even considered part of the Ten Heavenly Clans, so you were not qualified to participate in the first place, and now you have made a grave mistake."
"Therefore, both of your families will be eliminated by the Elders' Council, just like Sirius City."
