"Chief, what's wrong?"
"The Wu family had just left the family not long ago when the family received this news. Our Le'an City is not far from Pingyang City. If it were an ordinary warrior, he would definitely not be able to rush there in such a short time. But this person is a warrior of the fifth level of the Controlling Qi Realm. He can definitely do it. Moreover, with his realm, he can indeed easily deal with the people of the Gongyang Family."
After hearing Sun Simiao's explanation, the tribesmen present immediately reacted and their faces changed.
"Patriarch, do you suspect that this person was responsible for this?"
Sun Simiao shook his head:
"It's unlikely. The Wu family and the Gongyang family in Liuxing County are thousands of miles apart. There is no conflict between the two families. How could this person act rashly? Moreover, even if he really wanted to take action, he would definitely not come to our Sun family and expose his whereabouts before taking action."
"Chief, since this person didn't do it, why should I worry?"
Sun Simiao sighed when he heard this:
"The Gongyang family will certainly be furious after the death of a warrior from the Gongyang family. Even if this person was not responsible, he is still a suspect. Moreover, this person is now related to the family. Sooner or later, the Gongyang family will come to investigate. If the family does not handle it carefully, there may be some risks this time."
The elders present also agreed with him and said hurriedly:
"Then Patriarch, if the Gongyang family really comes to us, how should the family respond?"
Sun Simiao pondered for a long time before slowly speaking:
"Answer truthfully."
…
Half a day later.
In Yelang County, in the magnificent hall of the Gongyang Family.
The elders of the family gathered together, but the atmosphere was different from the relaxed and cheerful one in the past.
At this moment, the hall was filled with a depressing atmosphere. The elders in the hall all had stern expressions, with murderous intent in their eyes.
It was because this incident was so terrible that all the members of his Gongyang family who were escorting the blessed land resources back to the clan were wiped out. Not only were the blessed land resources lost, but the family also lost an elder who was at the third level of the Qi Control Realm.
The resources of the blessed land are small, but the lives of his Gongyang family members are great.
The family has never suffered such a loss in the past few decades. The last time was when the Zhou family of Yunmeng City did not know the family's reputation and dared to attack his Gongyang family. But he did not expect that such a thing would happen again in less than a few years.
"Have you found the murderer?"
Gongyang Junhao sat upright and asked calmly, but the elders present had already sensed the raging anger beneath his calm words.
Below, Gong Yang Junwei quickly stood up and said:
"To the clan leader, I quickly rushed to Pingyang City after hearing the news, but I did not detect any trace of the murderer. I can only determine that there is only one person who attacked, and his strength must be at the fifth level of the Qi Control Realm."
"Moreover, this person seemed to know the route that Elder Yang Li would take back to his tribe. He hid his tracks in advance and waited for Elder Yang Li and his group. He suddenly attacked Elder Yang Li and his group when they passed by. He acted decisively and used some kind of killing move, so that Elder Yang Li and his group had no time to react and died on the spot. Judging from the scars on Elder Yang Li's body, this person used a knife-type fighting technique!"
"After checking the traces, I tried to use the family totem to sense the murderer's aura, but even with the power of the totem, I still didn't get anything."
After Gongyang Junwei finished speaking, he stepped aside and said no more.
On the side, an elder soon spoke up:
"Clan leader, even the family totem has no effect. It can be seen that the person who attacked has already made preparations in this regard. It is clear that he came prepared and deliberately targeted my Gongyang family!"
"Since he is at the fifth level of the Controlling Qi Realm, this is most likely done by someone from the Ouyang family or the Gongye family. Only these two families are most likely to have done this. Perhaps they are dissatisfied with the blessed land resources that were allocated to them by the family before."
But soon after the words fell, other elders stood up and refuted:
"Hasn't the family been paying attention to the movements of the two clans recently? Moreover, the resources of the blessed land have not yet been evenly divided. How could the two clans attack the people of my Gongyang family at this time? So I think there may be something strange about this matter."
"The one who attacked must be a warrior at the same level as Ouyang Bozhi and Gongye Zizhi. His two clans have more than just these two at the Heaven and Man Unity level. The family cannot defend against warriors at this level, so how could their whereabouts be easily known?"
"If it wasn't done by his two clans, why would other clans suddenly attack the people of my Gongyang clan? Where did they get the strength to do this?"
As the elders present discussed one by one, the blame for this incident soon pointed to the Ouyang and Gongye families as the most suspected.
Even Gongyang Junhao above had a gloomy expression at this moment, and he became even more suspicious of the two tribes.
Just as Gongyang Junhao was about to speak, a tribesman suddenly came into the hall:
"Reporting to the clan leader, the elders Ouyang Boshi of the Ouyang family and Gongye Zizhi of the Gongye family are waiting outside the clan. They said they have something to discuss with the clan leader."
"?"
The elders who were just discussing the murderer froze when they heard this. Even the clan leader Gong Yangjunhao had a hint of doubt in his eyes, but then he said:
"Please invite the two elders into the hall."
Not long after, Ouyang Boshi and the other man walked into the hall.
After seeing the many elders of the Gongyang family in the hall, the two men looked calm, as if they had already expected this scene.
"Meet the Ram Patriarch."
"Meet the Ram Patriarch."
After a simple greeting, Gongyang Junhao also asked directly:
"I wonder what advice do the two elders have for our tribe?"
"Patriarch Gongyang, our clan is also very sad about the death of our noble clan members. I am here on behalf of our clan leader to inform you that this matter was not done by our Ouyang family. I hope that Patriarch Gongyang will understand, otherwise it will definitely affect the harmony and stability of our two clans."
"Chief Gongyang, this is also the purpose of my trip. In addition, my tribe has another piece of news to tell you. That is, today my tribe elders have noticed that there was an extraordinary aura in Le'an City. It seems that he is a strange warrior in the state of unity of heaven and man. This person is probably still in the territory of my three tribes. If Chief Gongyang does not mind, my tribe is willing to help the nobles investigate this matter and capture this person."
After Ouyang Boshi and Gongye Zizhi finished speaking, the expressions of many elders present changed slightly.
Even Gongyang Junhao had a look of surprise on his face at this moment. Could it be that this was really done by an outsider? What was his purpose? Was it just for the resources of this blessed land?
Although the Yang Li clan elders and others brought a lot of blessed land resources this time, they are not rare things for a martial artist of the fifth level of the Yuqi Realm. Is it necessary to attack the Gongyang family just for these resources?
The arrival of the Ouyang family and the Gongye family seemed to tell the family that this matter was indeed not done by the two families.
After some hesitation, Gongyang Junhao also replied:
"Please ask the two elders to thank the noble chieftain on my behalf when you return. However, my clan will personally take care of catching the murderer, so I won't bother them."
"In addition, our tribe will also conduct a thorough investigation into this matter. If this matter is indeed unrelated to the two tribes, it will not affect the friendship between our three tribes."
"But since this has happened, we will temporarily stop exploiting resources at Tongqiu Mountain Blessed Land. I hope the two elders will report this after returning to the tribe."
