"Fifth brother, sixth brother...it's all the eldest brother who is careless and has harmed you!"
Tao Penghai lamented deeply, feeling extremely sad about the death of the two clan brothers.
During the months when the two of them were chasing Jiang Tian, there was not even a single summons. He had long felt that something was wrong and had been suspecting that something had happened to them.
Now, the news from the Cangyun Sect has completely confirmed his guess. The two clan brothers have indeed fallen and died!
"My condolences, head of the family!"
"Master, take care!"
"The master of the house cannot be blamed for this matter. Two Xuan Realm experts are chasing and killing a Chongyang Realm minion. Who would have thought that something unexpected would happen?"
In the meeting hall, a group of elders tried to persuade and appease the head of the family, Tao Penghai.
After a long time, the eldest elder of the Tao family spoke in a deep voice.
"Master, now all the major sects are at the martial arts show. I'm afraid there is no gap to take advantage of. If we want to deal with Jiang Tian, we can only make other plans!"
Before this, everyone had long realized that the situation was not good, and had discussed possible countermeasures more than once.
Therefore, after confirming the death of the two men, they reacted calmly and quickly without losing their position.
"The great elder makes sense. Now is indeed not the best time. It seems we can only tolerate him for a while!"
Tao Penghai suppressed the murderous intention in his heart, but the aura around his body was still pulsating endlessly. His eyes flashed with a destructive light, and he concentrated on the next plan.
…
In the border area of Black Moon Kingdom, somewhere in an ancient palace with a rough shape and made entirely of Qinggang stone, a panicked cry suddenly rang out!
"Palace Master, something happened!"
A skinny black-robed warrior hurriedly entered the hall, holding a black token covered with cracks in his hand.
"Why are you so panicked?"
Hearing the shouts of his subordinates, the old man in black robe who was sitting on the throne in the main hall had a dark expression on his face, and a sinister edge flashed in his eyes.
The icy gaze swept out with a formidable chill, and a deep and terrifying pressure instantly filled the entire hall, making the black-robed elders sitting on both sides of the throne feel trembling.
The eyes of the old man in black robes on the throne shrank, and there was anger in his voice.
The "Blood Spirit Card" is a special spiritual weapon that is fused with the essence and blood of warriors and refined by secret techniques. It has no power itself and has a single function.
Once this object recognizes its owner by dripping blood, it will have a subtle connection with the warrior and sense his life and death status within a certain range.
Once the sensing breath disappears and the token collapses, it means that the owner of the token dies.
"This is Elder Yi's 'Blood Spirit Card'. Palace Master, please take a look at it!"
The skinny black-robed warrior did not dare to hesitate, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he presented the black token.
The token that was supposed to be a complete piece has now collapsed into more than a dozen messy fragments.
Obviously, Elder Yi is too dead to die!
"That's unreasonable!"
The old man in black robes on the throne was immediately furious, and the aura around his body flew away, shocking the skinny warrior so much that he vomited blood and flew backwards, falling heavily to the ground of the hall with a thud.
"Palace...Palace Master, calm down!"
The skinny old man struggled to his feet and quickly fell to his knees. Although he was injured by the opponent, he did not dare to breathe and just kept crawling on the ground.
The old man in black robes on the throne took a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart, and a gloomy and terrifying light flashed in his eyes.
"When did it happen?"
"Just now... half an hour ago!" The skinny warrior silently swallowed the blood that was about to overflow from his mouth, and replied quickly while enduring the sweet and fishy taste in his throat.
The hall fell into silence for a moment. After a while, an elder in black robes with black hair and white beard coughed lightly and suddenly spoke.
"Ahem! Elder Yi's strength has reached the peak of Xuanyue Realm, and that stronghold is located in the deep mountains in the southern part of Canglan Kingdom. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be a problem?"
As the words spread, everyone nodded.
"Elder Jin is right. The place is hidden and it shouldn't be easily discovered by anyone."
"Could it be that the movement over there attracted the attention of some powerful forces in the Canglan Kingdom, or was it... that it was discovered by the royal family of the Canglan Kingdom?"
Everyone frowned upon hearing this, and their expressions became a little complicated, but after a moment, the black-robed elder with black hair and white beard slowly shook his head.
"It is located in a primitive deep mountain. It should not attract the attention of the Canglan Royal Family. It is most likely the work of some powerful forces in the realm of Canglan Kingdom!"
Everyone looked at each other, still confused.
"Which master of the force would go to that kind of place?"
"I think it may be that Elder Yi's subordinates did something wrong and exposed their target, which attracted strong people to suppress it, or perhaps Elder Yi himself went out and provoked some powerful being!"
Everyone speculated, but no one was sure of the real cause of Elder Yi's death.
After all, no one witnessed the situation with their own eyes. If the elder-level figures did not have secretly made exclusive "Blood Spirit Cards", they would not even know the news of the other party's death.
The elder with black hair and white beard looked at everyone coldly, frowned and said: "In recent months, all the major forces in Canglan Kingdom have been preparing for martial arts competitions. These few months are just the time for disciples to practice. Haven't you heard?
Tell me?"
"Hiss! That's right, why did I forget this?"
"In this case, the possibility of Elder Yi encountering a master of martial arts from the Canglan Kingdom is undoubtedly very high!"
Everyone looked at each other and nodded repeatedly.
Although the mountain range is extremely wide, it cannot support the large number of practicing warriors. In order to ensure the safety of the training disciples, the major forces naturally send elders to patrol and protect them.
In this way, Elder Yi's death is not difficult to explain.
Originally, Elder Yi's death did not have much impact on Shengxuan Palace, but the problem was that his death happened to be involved in another matter.
And this matter is quite tricky!
Elder Jin was thinking deeply, his brows furrowed tightly, and his eyes gradually became serious.
"Palace Master, has Elder Yi sent that thing back to this palace and handed it into your hands?"
Everyone looked startled when they heard this, and turned to look at the old man in black robes on the throne.
The corners of the black-robed old man's eyes twitched, and his face became extremely cold, even slightly ugly.
"No, he just got it. He just summoned me yesterday and didn't even have time to send someone back!"
"What?"
"this……"
"This is really troublesome!"
Everyone's expressions changed when they heard this, and there was a burst of exclamations in the hall.
"That thing is not trivial. Once it falls into the hands of others, the consequences will be very serious. We must act as soon as possible to recover it!"
Elder Jin's face twitched, his expression became extremely serious, and there was even a hint of uneasiness in the depths of his pupils.
"I'm afraid this is not the only troublesome thing. There is another thing in Elder Yi's hands. Maybe it has been lost!"
The old man in black robes on the throne was silent for a moment, then suddenly shook his head and sighed, his eyes becoming extremely complicated.
