"What?!"
Ye Yunfeng's heart suddenly sank. He slammed his palm on the table beside him, instantly making a hole in it. His eyes were bloodshot. "The storage room was emptied?"
The elders of the five tribes looked solemn and nodded slowly.
This matter cannot be concealed.
Truth will come to light sooner or later.
Rather than being exposed later and causing panic among the people, it is better to take the initiative now. Those with ulterior motives can also take the opportunity to remove him from the Ye family roster, which may not be a bad thing.
But the disciples had no supply of elixirs, and how to deal with the situation next was another problem that gave him a headache.
The Supreme Court of Light!
Everyone in Tianfeng Continent knows about it.
No matter how powerful a country or force is, in front of it, it is like a bug competing with the bright moon for its glory. It is so small that it can kill a large number of them with just a wave of its hand!
The Supreme Court of Light is not a native force of the Tianfeng Continent, but comes from above.
A place called the Upper Realm.
That continent is called Lingyun Jiuzhou Continent. It is even more dangerous than Tianfeng Continent, and its area is also larger and seems boundless. It is a holy land that only the truly strong can go to!
If people from Tianfeng Continent want to go to the upper realm, they must pass the screening of the Supreme Court of Light.
Every year, the Supreme Court of Light will hold selection trials for the entire continent, choosing suitable seeds to join the Supreme Court of Light. As long as you stand out and perform well in it, you will be able to get a place to enter the upper realm!
This temptation is huge for everyone on the mainland, and because there is no age limit, there are many people participating in the trial, ranging from a hundred years old to eight or nine years old.
The Ye family naturally also wants to have disciples who can join the Supreme Court of Light.
Back then, the second young lady Ye Qingyun was spotted by the people of the Supreme Court of Light, and the Ye family gained a huge fortune. It was also from that time that the family firmly established its position as one of the five major families in Xuanyue Country, and its strength surpassed the other four families.
"Great Patriarch, still haven't found anything?" Ye Yunfeng quickly placed his only hope on the strongest person in the Ye family.
Ye Yue has always been a spectator and seldom expresses his opinions, but his presence is like a reassurance to the Ye family!
"The other party's whereabouts are cunning, and he knows the layout of the Ye family very well. This familiarity is not normal. He can even cleverly avoid all protections, making the formation that releases the alarm signal useless."
At this point, some people couldn't help but start whispering.
“So, I suspect it’s—” Ye Yue raised his eyes and glanced at every member of the Ye family present with different expressions: “A traitor has appeared in the Ye family!”
Very few people have access to these.
The difficulty lies in the fact that the most likely scenario now is that a traitor will appear, but no one can suspect him.
Because the only people who can access the formation are the Ye family's ten elders, besides the Ye family's head...
After investigating for a long time, he actually found out that he was the one responsible.
Not only Ye Yunfeng, the other nine elders also changed their expressions. If it weren't for Ye Yue's reputation here that he wouldn't talk nonsense, they would really have doubted his intentions!
"Our priority now is not just to find this person."
Ye Yue said in a deep voice.
The whole place was silent, with only his calm and steady voice as the rest of the voice.
"The royal family has been trying to weaken the five major families' control over the capital for more than a year or two. The Ye family has suffered several misfortunes, which have become well-known. I'm afraid there is a hidden hand behind the scenes helping them."
His fingertips tapped the table lightly. When he said this, his face remained expressionless and his fingers paused subtly.
"What we need to do most right now is to fight and not let them find any loopholes."
"Once the royal family takes action, the other families won't sit idly by. The five major families are the Ye family, the Ji family, the Yue family, the Chen family, and the Luo family. The Ji family has already had a cold relationship with us, the Yue family and the Chen family have hostile relations with us, and the Luo family has a neutral attitude. Whichever side is in power will be their side, and we need to be most careful about being stabbed in the back."
Everyone knows the relationship between the five major families.
But when it was laid out like this, it actually felt a bit heartbreaking.
Ye Yue said slowly, "Also, the Ye family has another pressing matter—the selection trial of the Supreme Court of Light!"
"Master, I suggest that you put everything else on hold, but don't slack off on this last matter. This is also the best opportunity to prove the Ye family to the top members of the Snake Clan."
…
"What is the Supreme Court of Light? I've never heard of it. Is this force very powerful and awesome?"
Bai Tuan picked a good spot where he could enjoy the moon and the scenery. Although the scenery here was just the waist-high weeds swaying with the slightest breeze outside, he curled up and huddled in the grass nest that Ye Wanyin had just made, and said lazily.
"It's not a question of whether it's awesome or not, or whether it's powerful or not."
Ye Wanyin stood in front of the only table in the room. She picked up the note she had just written, a smile in her eyes, and put it into the space with her hands.
"The Supreme Court of Light represents absolute hegemony over the Tianfeng Continent. Five hundred years ago, when the Tianfeng Continent was helpless in the face of the Warcraft unrest, the Supreme Court of Light descended from the sky..."
Bai Tuan opened his eyes.
"Falling from the sky?" it asked.
Ye Wanyin nodded: "They fell from the sky. They are not from the Tianfeng Continent. We call this place the lower realm, the lowest kind. In addition to the lower realm, there are also the middle realm and the upper realm."
"The Supreme Court of Light comes from the upper realm—the Lingyun Jiuzhou Continent."
Bai Tuan propped up his head with the tip of his tail, his tone tinged with amusement, "So you guys know about the Lower Realm, the Middle Realm, and the Upper Realm. I thought you only knew about the Sky Wind Continent and nothing else."
"Lingyun Jiuzhou Continent... that place is not a good one. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's a place full of demons running rampant."
Ye Wanyin was not curious: "You are very familiar with these, but I remember that you came to Tianfeng Continent with the otherworldly soul that I devoured. Could it be that you were all in Lingyun Jiuzhou Continent before?"
"Bingo~ guessed it right."
Bai Tuan's tone was still lazy. After following Ye Wanyin back to the Ye family, he crawled around everywhere. He remembered that the last time he was so leisurely was last time. It really made the snake miss it.
"As you can see, that idiot brought his own death upon himself! And she was incredibly unlucky to have run into you. Being devoured is actually a good thing... To the people of this continent, she's too extreme and too dangerous. She'll stab anyone at the slightest disagreement. Either she dies or someone else does."
"By the way, she's not from Lingyun Jiuzhou Continent. She came here from another world called Blue Star, and then she met me."
Ye Wanyin nodded. If she had not returned here at that time and her body had been occupied by that strange soul, things would have taken a different turn.
It would be fine if I didn't go back to the Ye family, but if I did...
I always feel that she will not survive the first day. No matter whether Ye Cheng is dead or alive, Ye Shengping will definitely imprison her on the spot until she is sixteen years old and the time is right!
