This not only stunned Gongyang Junhao, but also stunned several elders who were just engaged in a fierce battle.
"Where are the people?"
At this moment, everyone had a hint of doubt in their hearts, and the earthquake below was still continuing.
Although I don’t know where the Chen family members are hiding, everything I see is obviously the Chen family’s weird tricks.
However, this stopped Gongyang Junhao, who was about to call upon the family totem. All the enemies were gone, so why call upon the family totem? Wouldn't it be a waste of the totem's divine power?
You should know that the family totem spirit is also very precious.
When Gongyang Junhao looked at the shaking ground below, he quickly discovered the cause of the earthquake.
There seemed to be some strange thing constantly withdrawing from the ground. When Gongyang Junhao looked into the distance, he quickly understood the reason. It turned out to be black roots as thick as arms.
At this time, the roots were coming towards everyone, which made Gong Yang Junhao shout loudly:
"careful!"
Seeing this, other tribesmen also hurriedly launched defenses.
But when these countless roots approached, everyone quickly discovered that these roots did not seem to want to attack them, but had other purposes.
This made Gongyang Junhao's face pause, and he couldn't help but turn around again and look towards the place where these roots left.
But this sight made Gongyang Junhao and many members of the Gongyang family stunned again.
Not far in front of them, they saw a thick wall made of roots that had unknowingly blocked them outside the wall.
This wall of roots was so high that there was no end in sight. Seeing this, Gongyang Junhao could not help but fly up to the clouds and then looked down, finally seeing the whole picture clearly.
As far as the eye could see, the entire mass grave was completely wrapped in these endless roots, making it impenetrable.
Looking at this scene, Gongyang Junhao couldn't help but fall into silence.
The other family elders nearby were also stunned upon seeing this.
The two tribes were still fighting fiercely just now, but in the blink of an eye, they seemed to be separated by two places!
"Patriarch, the Chen family's totem seems to be a tree!"
On the side, Gongyang Yangshuo spoke up to remind him. After all, he had seen the locust tree when he first came to the Mass Burial Hill to inquire about the situation. However, he vaguely remembered that the locust tree was extremely weak.
Even if we hadn't seen each other for a few years, it would have been impossible for him to grow to this point.
Obviously, he was deceived at the beginning, which made Gongyang Yangshuo a little angry, but he did not say it at this time. After all, that would be taking the responsibility on himself.
"Patriarch, what does it mean that the Chen family avoids fighting at the critical moment?"
At one side, Gongyang Junwei also asked the doubts in everyone's mind. After all, the Chen family was very powerful. In the previous battle, everyone regarded the Chen family as an evenly matched opponent. Moreover, the Chen family's warrior who had reached the state of unity between man and nature had not yet appeared!
Hearing the questions from his clansmen, Gongyang Junhao was also puzzled. After all, in the battle just now against high-level warriors in the Yuqi realm, the family was at a disadvantage and had to call on the totem spirit for help.
At this moment, Chen Tianjing's voice suddenly came from the other side of the roots:
"Patriarch Gongyang, my Chen family has no intention of being an enemy of your clan. The death of the noble elder was not caused by my clan, but was secretly done by the Heaven and Earth Alliance. I hope that Patriarch Gongyang can see clearly."
After hearing about the Heaven and Earth Alliance, Gongyang Junhao and several elders present had their pupils shrink. But even so, Gongyang Junhao still had uncontrollable anger in his heart:
"My clan has searched all the way here, but you keep saying that the death of our clan elder was not caused by your Chen family, but you just made up a heaven and earth alliance. Do you think I will believe it?"
"Even if this matter is really a misunderstanding, what about the Tongqiu Mountain Blessed Land? This matter must have been caused by your clan, right?"
After these words came out, Chen Tianjing laughed loudly:
"Chief Gongyang, the blessed land without an owner is available to anyone. This was indeed done by our tribe. If the nobles want to ask our tribe for an explanation for this matter, then just come on."
After that, no more sound came from the root wall. However, such an arrogant attitude made Gongyang Junhao find it difficult to swallow the anger in his heart.
The Chen family is simply too arrogant. Not only did they secretly steal the blessed land resources of the Gongyang family, but they were also so shameless.
Gongyang Junhao grasped the sheep horns in his hand again, and was immediately ready to call out the totem spirit to break through the wall of roots in front of them.
The Chen family's totem seems extraordinary, but how could the Gongyang family's superior totem be weak?
But at this moment, Gong Yang Yangshuo on the side hurriedly said:
"Wait a minute, clan leader. The Chen family should be destroyed, but the clan came here to investigate the attack on the clan elders. If this is really as the Chen family said, there may be other twists and turns. I think the clan should still make a long-term plan."
After these words came out, many family elders looked solemn and nodded in agreement:
"That's right, Patriarch. If it was really done by the Heaven and Earth Alliance, then the family must treat it with caution."
"But the Tiandi Alliance was wiped out by all the tribes more than a hundred years ago. Could it be that this alliance has revived?"
Thinking back to the Tiandi Alliance, many of the older elders were frightened. After all, they had more experience and naturally knew more about the Tiandi Alliance. Meanwhile, their family at that time was just a medium-sized family.
However, an elder soon retorted:
"Patriarch, the clan has not received any news about the return of the Heaven and Earth Alliance. How did the Chen family know about this? In my opinion, this matter is most likely fabricated by the Chen family in order to shirk responsibility, with the purpose of getting rid of the suspicion of the Chen family."
"What the Yangwu clan elder said is correct. If this was not done by the Chen family, why would the clan search here? Moreover, there is still the aura left by that person in Yong'an City. How do you explain this?"
"Besides, if this was not done by the Chen family, then why didn't the Chen family explain it clearly at the beginning? Why did they have to fight with our clan before explaining it? They clearly have something to hide!"
After hearing the explanations of the two elders in front, the elders present felt that it made a lot of sense.
But the words of the last elder made all the elders fall into silence.
His Gongyang family is an upper-class family. On the other hand, the Chen family was just an unknown middle-class family before this. Why should he explain it to his family?
Even if I explained it, how could the family believe it?
If it weren't for the battle just now, the family probably wouldn't have known that the Chen family was hiding so deeply and their strength was not much worse than that of their superior families.
It was precisely because of the extraordinary strength of the Chen family that the family elders held different opinions and found it difficult to make a decision for a while.
After the debate failed, everyone quickly turned their attention to Gongyang Junhao, waiting for the family patriarch to make the final decision.
Should we continue fighting or take a long-term view?
