Feng Yishuang was waiting for Feng Lingfei to object, and sneered: "What? You can't even trust the Great Elder? Your son is really amazing. Even the Great Elder is suspicious of your son."
The anger in Feng Lingfei's eyes was about to become reality. If she hadn't been worried about the Great Elder's presence, she would have fought with him long ago. In her opinion, Feng Yishuang, this bitch, could only be silenced by beating her.
Unfortunately, the angrier she got, the happier Feng Yishuang was.
The Great Elder and other high-ranking members of the Feng Clan who were present looked at Feng Lingfei with suspicion. In their opinion, Feng Lingfei was unwilling to hand over her son to the Great Elder because she was guilty. And the loss of the phoenix egg that year couldn't really be related to Feng Lingfei, right? At that time, the situation in the Phoenix Tribe was too chaotic. Afterwards, they wanted to investigate but could not find any results. They could only let it go. Later, they never relaxed their investigation, but her whereabouts were still unknown.
Even the Great Elder couldn't help but have doubts in his heart. It was Feng Lingfei's series of actions that made the Great Elder unhappy. Feng Yuanrui's death was very important to the Phoenix Tribe. If the murderer was not found, would there be a second or third victim? The Phoenix Tribe was already one step behind the Dragon Tribe, and at this time, no one could be allowed to undermine the interests of the Phoenix Tribe.
"Elder, Great Elder, it's bad, another tribe member's soul tablet is broken!" The tribe member guarding the soul tablet rushed in with fear and shouting
.
"What?!" The great elder's eyelids twitched, and he disappeared in the meeting room with a scream. The next moment, he appeared at the place where the soul tablets were placed. It was broken into seven or eight pieces. The dead were all the more promising younger generations in the clan. Then he went to check on the conditions of the dead. Each of them died exactly like Feng Yuanrui, with all the blood drained out of their bodies, turning into a dried corpse.
The Great Elder was furious, and the energy around him was rioting. Fortunately, the people around him were all high-level members of the Phoenix Clan, otherwise those with lower cultivation would have been injured: "Damn thief! If I, Feng Tianming, don't sacrifice your blood to members of my Phoenix Clan and extract your soul to be tempered, you will be unworthy of being the Great Elder of my Phoenix Clan!"
Then he turned his head and glared at Feng Lingfei fiercely. His eyes were no longer gentle, but became extremely fierce: "Feng Lingfei, this matter had better have nothing to do with your son, otherwise you will be in danger yourself! All members of the Phoenix Clan obey my orders, and completely block the Phoenix Clan and Phoenix City. No suspicious person shall be let go, and send someone to keep an eye on Feng Lingfei's son!"
"Yes, Great Elder!"
Even if there were conflicts of interest, the loss of these members of the Phoenix Clan at once was a great loss to the entire Phoenix Clan, and it was a loss to the interests of the entire Phoenix Clan. So at this time, they put aside their prejudices and united against the outside world, and would not give up until the thief was found.
"Great Elder!" Feng Lingfei exclaimed, and wanted to plead for her son, but the look in the eyes of the Great Elder made her tremble with fear. Could it be that Shen Yun really caused this? No, it wouldn't be! How could this be possible? However, a thought emerged in the depths of her heart that she herself dared not admit
.
"Shut up! Go back!" The Great Elder shouted. At such an important moment, Feng Lingfei was still thinking about her son, which disappointed the Great Elder.
Feng Yishuang personally led people to Chen Yun's residence. Before, the soul tablets were regularly checked. It was not thought that a member would be killed outside, which led to Feng Yuanrui's death being discovered several months after his death. Therefore, after his death, a special person was assigned to guard. This time, as soon as the soul tablet was broken, the guard came to report in a terrified state. Feng Yishuang believed that as long as it was done by Chen Yun, the bastard, it would be impossible for no clues to be left in such a short time.
"Elder, there's no one in the cave!"
Feng Yishuang rushed in, and sure enough, the person was gone. This deepened his suspicion: "Search carefully, don't miss any details, and then order the whole clan to look for Chen Yun, this evil child."
"Yes!"
The news that reached the great elder made his expression more and more stern. Feng Lingfei, who also received the news, felt her heart sinking. If it had nothing to do with Chen Yun, why would he leave? No, maybe he wanted to escape because he knew he was not trusted, but Feng Lingfei couldn't even convince herself with such an excuse.
After a few days, Gu Yao and his friends found that the atmosphere in Phoenix City had changed. Patrol teams with murderous auras flew over the city and searched every corner of the city. The place where they lived was also searched by the patrol teams of the Phoenix Clan, who carefully questioned their identities.
The situation within the Phoenix Clan could not be concealed at all, and it soon spread throughout Phoenix City. Gu Yao and his friends in Phoenix City naturally knew about it.
"Another member of the Phoenix Clan was killed!"
"It is said that the murderer is the mixed-blood illegitimate son of Elder Feng Lingfei. He escaped, so the Phoenix Clan is looking for him everywhere now."
"If I meet this damn bastard, I will never let him off!" Many people said angrily.
"Elder Feng Lingfei even pleaded for that bastard, and was detained by the Great Elder."
"How could Elder Feng Lingfei do this? Is she really going to disregard the entire Phoenix Clan for that bastard?"
News of Feng Lingfei's actions spread, and the Bird Clan, who used to worship and admire her, became angry with her. Even if there were people who defended her, they were quickly suppressed by other voices. This order was issued by the Great Elder. Could it be that the Great Elder also made a wrong judgment? No matter how high Feng Lingfei's status in the Phoenix Clan was, could it be higher than the Great Elder? The Great Elder was the pillar and patron saint of the entire Phoenix Clan.
Fox Nine was also surprised: "That guy is really brave. After Feng Yuanrui's death was exposed, he dared to kill so many Feng people and let him escape."
Gu Yao said: "You forgot that he got the life cards of those clan leaders and was protected by emperor-level masters. It would not be a problem for him to escape in time before the incident. It was also the Feng tribe that was alerted late. If they had caught this man earlier, they would not have ended up like this."
Fox Nine shook his head and sighed: "This Elder Feng Lingfei is really confused. According to the information I got, the reason she was detained was to plead for her son, but she angered the great elder of the Feng tribe."
"If that guy can't be found, Feng Lingfei will have to suffer for a long time. Although she is an elder, which of the dead Feng Clan members has no background? The combined power of those veins is enough to deal with Feng Lingfei."
Because they are not local cultivators, they are not as free as before, and it is not easy for them to go out and wander around. Moreover, the entire Phoenix City is now in a state where people can enter but not leave. They cannot leave and are temporarily trapped in Phoenix City.
Xiao Yuhua sat obediently on the side, frowning slightly. In his mind, the Feng Clan is unattainable. He didn't expect so many people to be killed at once. This made him very angry. He felt extremely dislike for Elder Feng Lingfei, who was mentioned by several seniors, even before he met her.
That was the elder of the Phoenix Clan, an emperor-level expert. In the past, such a person had such a high and sacred status in his mind, but how could she condone and protect an outsider from killing a Phoenix Clan member?
They couldn't go out recently, so they often went to the tavern to sit, so they got to know several foreign cultivators who were stranded in Phoenix City. They had a lot in common with each other, and many of them were there to make fun of the Phoenix Clan. The Dragon Clan didn't even take action against the Phoenix Clan, but the Phoenix Clan wanted to kill itself first.
Fox Jiu was talking to a bear cultivator, and a dark shadow fell from the window, blocking the light. Fox Jiu looked up and said, "Hey, isn't this Taoist Fellow Feng Yuanzheng? I wonder what advice Fellow Feng Yuanzheng has for you?"
The one who stopped in front of the window and looked at Hu Jiu expressionlessly was none other than Feng Yuanzheng. Now he was personally leading the team to guard the Phoenix City, and he only knew that Hu Jiu was here after hearing the report. His eyes swept over Gu Yao, Chi Changye and Wu Yuhua, and he said lightly: "I wonder if it is Yuanzheng's fault that Young Master Hu Jiu has come here. I wonder who are these friends of Young Master Hu Jiu?"
Gu Yao and Chi Changye were fine, but Wu Yuhua had experienced little after all, and when he heard Hu Jiu call out this person's name and his eyes swept over him, he felt pressured and his body tensed up, which made Feng Yuanzheng look at him a few more times, but a teenager who had not yet grown up should not have anything worthy of his attention.
Fox Nine raised his eyebrows and smiled, "They are some friends I met in Void City. It's their first time to the demon world, so I took them for a walk and let them see the scenery of our demon world. Unfortunately, we ran into a situation like this. Now they can't leave even if they want to."
Feng Yuanzheng frowned unhappily, and Fox Nine had no intention of introducing Gu Yao and the others' identities. He and Fox Nine were neither enemies nor friends, but how could Fox Nine's appearance in the Feng clan's territory at such a time not arouse suspicion?
Suppressing his doubts, he said, "It is inconvenient for Yuanzheng to disturb Master Fox Nine from entertaining his friends. If you need anything, feel free to come to me. I apologize for the inconvenience caused to Master Fox Jiu. Bye."
"Goodbye." Fox Nine clasped his fists and sent Feng Yuanzheng away.
The bear cultivator next to him was ignored from beginning to end, but luckily he was used to the arrogance of the Phoenix Clan and laughed: "Feng Yuanzheng has been under a lot of pressure recently. He used to have a similar status to Ao Yinfeng, but now Ao Yinfeng has become Ao Feng, and Feng Yuanzheng has to stop his seclusion and go out to search for wanted criminals. It's really a hard life for him."
Fox Nine touched his chin and said: "Do you think that guy is hiding in this Phoenix City, or has he already run away?"
The bear cultivator said: "This time the Phoenix Clan discovered "It's too late. No matter how fast that guy runs, he can't run that far. I think he might be hiding somewhere in Phoenix City, waiting for the storm to pass before leaving."
Gu Yao couldn't say where that guy was. Although his freedom was a little restricted, it was not to the extent that he couldn't accept it. He taught Xiao Yuhua to practice, and studied the art of alchemy and talismans with Chi Changye. He went to the restaurant to talk to Xiong Ni every now and then. His sight and consciousness could be ignored from time to time.
The Feng Clan's high-pressure investigation was not without results. Since the day the city was closed, several battles have occurred in Phoenix City, but it is said that those who were found were all the accomplices of that guy. As for Shen Yun himself, his whereabouts were still not found.
