Chapter 2597 Do you dare to question the patriarch?
,,(+,)
In the Northern Demon Realm, most of the Pulse Demons are rough people, and it is rare to see people with Huo Ying's mind. Therefore, Xumi has always relied heavily on Huo Ying, and has never doubted his ambitions.
.
But now the two elders hold different opinions. Although it seems that Huo Ying's side is standing on the moral high ground, Xumi knows that Mu Ji has always been kind. If he hadn't been forced into a hurry, how could he be as desperate as before?
You must know that when Huo Ying personally captured Mu Wenzhao, although Mu Ji was angry, he did not act rashly, which shows that the great elder still attaches great importance to the rules of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan.
Although this does not rule out that after so many years of resentment, the resentment in Mu Ji's heart was accumulated to an extreme and then exploded, but it does not mean that there is another possibility.
That's what Mu Ji said is the truth. He has been deceived by Huo Ying's superficial articles all along. These thoughts in Xumi's mind quickly turned around and he did not make an accurate decision at this moment.
"Do you see, Great Elder, the patriarch is giving you a chance? As long as you take the initiative to admit your mistake, this matter will be over!"
Seeing that Xumi didn't move, Huo Ying's eyes flashed with a sinister light, secretly thinking that it was already at this time, and the hateful patriarch still favored Mu Ji, so he could only add more fire.
And this time, Mu Ji's voice did not lower its tone. Instead, it was raised in a higher tone, allowing the saints who were watching from a distance to hear clearly.
Huo Ying had already shown with his actions that this time it was Mu Ji who relied on his identity as the elder to commit murder and get into jail. If there was no explanation for this matter, the prestige of the patriarch Xumi would plummet.
"Second Elder, isn't there something wrong with this? If we don't deal with it this time, won't anyone dare to trespass into Yan Lao in the future?"
The third elder on the side had long understood Huo Ying's thoughts, and now he said something dissatisfied. As soon as he said this, the saints in the distance nodded with deep understanding.
"Shut up, how can you say what the clan leader will do? Besides, even if the elder dares to do such a thing, others may not have the guts either!"
Huo Ying pretended to be furious and scolded him, but the last sentence showed that the elder had special privileges and could be easily ignored even if he committed such a serious crime. This was already stimulating the patriarch to express his stance.
"Clan leader, Huo Ying is so ambitious that he first colluded with Canglong Emperor Palace to poison Chi Yan, and then used this poisonous trick to lure Yun Xiao and I to Yan Prison, which ultimately caused Yun Xiao to die miserably. Don't fall for his sweet words.
I’ve been deceived!”
Mu Ji knew that he could not speak more eloquently than Huo Ying, so he could only tell the truth over and over again that not many people knew, but this could only attract a sneer from Huo Ying.
"Great Elder, you are really good at slandering people, but you must have evidence in everything. If there is no evidence, don't just bring it out and accuse good people!"
This was probably Huo Ying's trump card. He asked himself that he had done it perfectly this time. The evil-minded Yun Xiao was dead, and only the stubborn Mu Ji was left. What kind of waves could he make in his hands?
?
Hearing Huo Ying's words, Mu Ji couldn't help but be speechless. Where could he get evidence now? The only two witnesses were not only Huo Ying's, but they had now become two dead ghosts.
It has to be said that Huo Ying was really meticulous in his work. Any evidence that might make his plan fail was killed by him. Even Mo Xun was killed without a burial place. All threats ceased to exist.
It's just that Huo Ying is not in a good mood at the moment. If Mu Ji died in the Fire Prison like Na Yun Xiao, then everyone would be happy, so why bother to spend so much time defending at this moment?
"you……"
"alright!"
Just when Mu Ji's anger was rising and he was about to explode again, the voice of clan leader Xumi finally came out. This sharp shout made both Mu Ji and Huo Ying tremble.
It was obvious that Xumi had blessed the power of the holy object in this shout. This affected the bloodline of all the Fire Sacred Rat clan, making them subconsciously feel a little afraid. Naturally,
I dare not say it anymore.
"The leader of this clan will investigate and get to the bottom of this matter. Before that, you two are not allowed to fight privately, otherwise the clan rules will not tolerate it!"
In the end, Xumi made such a decision, but this decision was not very satisfactory to both parties, and they glared at each other, making the patriarch feel helpless.
"The patriarch, the great elder..."
The third elder had always been following Huo Ying's lead and was very dissatisfied at this moment. But as soon as he said a few words, Huo Ying on the side knew that something was going to happen. The patriarch's cold eyes instantly turned to the third elder.
"What? Now you even dare to question the order of my clan leader?"
There was a hint of threat in Xumi's tone, and he was quite wary of Mu Ji and Huo Ying. After all, these two were strong men who had reached the pinnacle of the Holy Realm, and were the absolute pillars of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan.
But what does a third elder who is only in the late stage of the Holy Realm mean? After Xumi has already made a decision, to question it is to challenge the authority of the patriarch.
Although Xumi couldn't lose his temper when facing Mu Ji and Huo Ying, as the contemporary patriarch of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan, his majesty naturally did not allow anyone to provoke him at will. At this moment, he obviously found an opportunity.
"Or, with the support of the second elder, no one dares to look down upon you?"
Xumi's next words were a bit serious. As a clan leader, he knew which elders in the clan had good relationships and to what extent. He also knew that the third elder was closest to Huo Ying.
An elder.
These words are not without the intention of knocking Huo Ying, but they are also reminding Huo Ying that no matter how hard you jump, you are only a second elder after all, and the Fire Sacred Rat Clan must still be controlled by his Sumeru.
"Don't dare! Don't dare! The patriarch's words are serious!"
With Huo Ying's shrewdness, he couldn't detect the clan leader's knocking meaning. He also knew that his sharpness in recent years might have attracted Xumi's attention, and it seemed that he would restrain himself in the future.
"Still not retreating?"
Huo Ying, who was depressed in his heart, turned around and shouted loudly, which shocked the third elder and secretly thought that he was really reckless this time, but how could the patriarch be so partial to the elder?
"Everything depends on the patriarch. Huo Ying also believes that the patriarch will give me, oh no, give a satisfactory explanation to all the clan members!"
Although Huo Ying was convinced, he did not completely give up on sanctioning Mu Ji. His words were loud and could be heard clearly by all the tribesmen within the Yanlao area. It could be regarded as putting pressure on Xumi in disguise.
.
"Great Elder, please return to your residence immediately. You are not allowed to leave the hospital without permission before the leader of the clan makes a decision. Do you hear me?"
Xumi ignored Huo Ying's intention, but turned his head and spoke in a deep voice to Mu Ji, who still had an angry look on his face, and then turned his attention to Mu Wenzhao beside him.
"You can take Wen Zhao back for the time being. Remember not to cause trouble again, otherwise don't blame me for being merciless!"
After feeling tangled for a while, Xumi did not say anything about sending Mu Wenzhao back to the Yan Prison. This finally made the hatred in Mu Ji's heart lessen a bit, and he finally nodded.
"Yes, patriarch!"
Thinking about it, Mu Ji also knew that with Xumi in front of him, no matter how much he wanted to kill Huo Ying, he would definitely not be able to do it.
What's more, their fighting power is only half as good. It may not be easy to get back the slight advantage they gained through hard work.
"Clan leader, I want to take Chi Yan over and join us, is that okay?"
Mu Ji suddenly remembered something and asked directly. Then he glanced at someone next to him and said, "Some guys are obsessed with evil intentions. Only by my side can Chi Yan be guaranteed to be absolutely safe!"
Hearing the words "certain guys" in Mu Ji's mouth, Huo Ying almost retorted again, but seeing the gloomy face of the patriarch Xumi, he forced himself to hold it back, but secretly resented him in his heart.
It's obvious that the clan leader still favors Mu Ji's side, otherwise he wouldn't have allowed him to bring Mu Wenzhao back. If it was really as serious a crime as Huo Ying said before, he would have to be imprisoned in the Flame Prison to see the consequences at worst.
?
"As you wish!"
The next three words of Xumi made Huo Ying feel even more angry. Wouldn't this reunite the three of them? Mu Jiji would not feel comfortable if it made him feel uncomfortable.
"Thank you, patriarch!"
This time Mu Ji was sincerely grateful. Although he failed to overthrow Huo Ying and let Yun Xiao die unexpectedly, it can be considered a blessing among misfortunes for the three of them to be reunited, right?
"Let's all disperse!"
Xumi didn't want to be entangled in this matter anymore, and he didn't want more tribesmen to see the joke. He waved his hand, and the shout contained the powerful demon energy of the peak of the Holy Realm, which everyone could hear.
Clearly.
Even the second elder Huo Ying didn't say anything more, and quickly left the location of the Yan Lao with the third elder. On the contrary, Mu Ji on the side had a look of joy on his face, and slowly led Mu Wenzhao away.
However, just when Mu Ji was about to leave the area of Yan Lao, he involuntarily turned around and took one last look at the entrance of Yan Lao. At the same time, a thin figure in rough clothes appeared in his mind.
"If I can't come back, you..."
Yun Xiao's last words before leaving were constantly swirling in Mu Ji's mind. Before Yun Xiao could finish his words, he was interrupted by him. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a farewell.
Mu Ji knew clearly what Yun Xiao wanted to express, which was to take good care of Chi Yan.
From this, it may also be thought that Yun Xiao has already regarded his brother with a different surname, even if he is Mai Yao, as a life-and-death friend.
"Yun Xiao, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Chi Yan!"
After sighing softly, Mu Ji turned around resolutely. Now that the matter has come to this, all the vain sorrow is of no use. Only by fulfilling Yun Xiao's wish can he comfort his spirit in heaven!
