As a large Xuanmen family with a history spanning hundreds of years, the Zuo family's heritage is unmatched by those sects that have only recently emerged. They even possess legendary items like dragon bones.
However, dragon bones were once under the management of the royal family. In modern times, they are now under the unified management of the government. The Zuo family's private collection of these items must not be exposed.
Zuo Shaohua knew Shi Miao was an expert fortune teller, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he could predict everything. However, as a divine object, the dragon bone's realm was limited, and divine objects were inherently obscure. Even a true Primordial Spirit Master might face backlash if they attempted to divine from it. Yet, Shi Miao, a Golden Core Grandmaster...had divined it correctly.
"Wait..." He subconsciously spoke out to stop them.
Shi Miaoqing glanced at him, "Don't you want to solve your grandfather's problem quickly? What are you afraid of?"
Everyone's eyes fell on Zuo Shaohua. Zuo Shaohua felt uneasy and opened his mouth for a long time, but found that he could not find any reason to stop it.
Seeing the uncontrollable panic on his grandson's face, Zuo Haoran sighed inwardly, "If I'm not mistaken, it's probably our Zuo family that's colluding with outsiders. This is a family scandal for our Zuo family, so let us deal with it ourselves."
Bai Changting's gentle expression faded, and a rare coldness appeared on his face. He naturally guessed that this so-called formation was most likely Zuo Haoran's own creation, and he just messed up. If he hadn't been so greedy and messed up, he and Shi Miao would have been the ones being plotted against today.
"Brother Zuo, as a Jindan Grandmaster, is a national treasure. You are seriously injured, which is a great loss to our country's Xuanmen. I can't watch the mastermind behind this go unpunished."
He pointed his finger, and the soil that buried the dragon bones flew into the air, revealing the huge dragon bones.
Although Zuo Haoran wanted to stop it, he was severely injured and had difficulty using his magical powers. He could only watch helplessly as the dragon bones were exposed to the public. The last bit of blood on his lips completely disappeared, and his face was filled with a gray look.
The people present were all well-known figures in the Xuanmen sect, and they all recognized that it was a dragon bone - not to mention that the dragon energy on the dragon bone could not deceive anyone at all.
Those who originally wanted to stand on Zuo Haoran's side wanted to travel back to an hour ago and slap themselves a few times - how stupid.
The Zuo family was truly audacious, secretly hoarding dragon bones, and such complete ones at that. Dragon bones can incubate new dragon veins, and the more complete, the higher the probability of success, though this process could take over five hundred years. No wonder Zuo Haoran's aura had risen so quickly, even to the point of a domineering air that looked down upon the world. It was dragon energy, after all; how could it not be domineering?
Wait, the Zuo family's skills couldn't be related to dragon energy, right? Some people had already thought of this, and their eyes looked at Zuo Haoran with more complicated expressions.
Zuo Haoran moved his lips, trying to save face and distance himself from the matter. "So it really was Dragon Bone... I'm old now, and I've been obsessed with cultivation these past few years, with no time to take care of family affairs. And yet, something like this happened right before my eyes."
He was about to pour out his heart to express his troubles when he saw Shi Miao took out his cell phone.
"Hello, Minister Geng? We found a complete dragon skeleton here. Send someone to take it away."
Zuo Haoran's face turned pale, "Shi Miao, what are you doing?"
Shi Miao hung up the phone. "The dragon bones belong to the country. As citizens of Country Z, if we come across any, we have an obligation to hand them over to the country!"
She estimated that the Zuo family had more than one dragon bone, so Shi Miao decided to hand them all over to the country!
Zuo Haoran only felt a sweet smell rising up - this is too much, this is the Zuo family's treasure! Why should she hand it over to the country!
But if he vomited blood at this time, it would seem like he was dissatisfied with her actions. Zuo Haoran could only forcefully suppress the blood that had already surged up his throat, feeling extremely aggrieved and uncomfortable. He consoled himself by saying that even if he lost this dragon bone, he still had other ones.
"Brother Zuo, are you feeling uncomfortable?" Bai Changting was talking about something irrelevant, drawing everyone's attention back to Zuo Haoran.
Zuo Haoran forced a smile that was uglier than crying, "It's just that the internal injuries from before haven't healed yet..."
Shi Miao said sincerely, "You have to take good care of your injuries. I have little experience, so next year's international battle will depend on you."
As soon as these words were spoken, others tried to stop him.
"Shi Miao is more suitable for this position. Haoran may have just broken through to the Golden Core stage not long ago, so his cultivation is still unstable."
"Yes, there's still time to talk about it after he finishes dealing with the Zuo family's affairs."
Although Shi Miao was weak and prone to spitting blood, his strength wasn't affected by this, and in fact, it only made him stronger. He wasn't like Zuo Haoran, who was all show and no substance. If Zuo Haoran were to become the leader, and embarrass himself abroad, people would probably think that Country Z's Xuanmen was just that weak. If word got out, they'd all be spitted at.
After weighing the pros and cons, those who originally stood on Zuo Haoran's side immediately switched sides.
and……
Their eyes unconsciously fell on Long Gu. The Zuo family was originally involved in a spy case, and now with the Long Gu incident, they are definitely in big trouble.
Zuo Haoran listened to them praising Shi Miao, saying she was beautiful, kind, powerful, and the undisputed number one in the Xuan Sect, and his head was buzzing with anger. The Zuo family hadn't even fallen yet, and some fence-sitters were already switching sides.
Because it involves the dragon vein, Minister Geng came very quickly and I came in person.
In order to make it easier for them to get to the island, Shi Miao naturally froze the lake again.
Although I was mentally prepared through the phone call, I have to say that I was really shocked when I saw the complete dragon skeleton with my own eyes.
