Not only Tao Rongxing, but also Tao Yuxing stopped fleeing, and Ji Tianxing, Bai Feng and others stopped chasing.
Even the dozens of Taotie tribesmen who were holding out swords and preparing to intercept Ji Tianxing and others stopped one after another.
The place suddenly became quiet.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
A cold light flashed, and more than forty Taotie tribesmen put away their swords and assumed a posture of watching the fun.
Ji Tianxing glanced at the palace not far away, quietly opened the Nine Heavens and Ten Jue Tower, and took Bai Feng, Chao Qingyu and Yan Ke inside.
He was the only one left in the field, with dozens of Taotie tribesmen in front of him, and dilapidated ruins behind him.
At this moment, a dazzling bloody light lit up in the most sacred and solemn palace.
"Whoosh!"
There was a flash of blood, and a man in purple armor, three feet tall and as stocky as a hill, appeared in front of everyone.
This is a very bulky and bloated man from the Taotie tribe. His whole body is covered with dark red scales, and his curly hair is as red as fire.
Wearing thick purple armor, he stood in the field like a mountain, giving people an extremely strong sense of oppression.
Many Taotie tribe members did not dare to look at him, they all lowered their heads and saluted respectfully.
"See the patriarch!"
There is no doubt that this hill-like man from the Taotie clan is none other than Taotie clan leader, Tao Yongsheng!
It was quiet in the venue.
Tao Yongsheng looked at Ji Tianxing expressionlessly, looked at the ruins behind him, and then turned to look at Tao Rongxing and Tao Yuxing, who were seriously injured.
Ji Tianxing stood there with an indifferent expression, also looking at Tao Yongsheng.
He only knew the name of the Taotie clan leader, but he didn't understand his character.
Therefore, he could not predict what would happen next.
At the same time, several more bloody lights lit up in the two nearby palaces.
Six or seven powerful men from the Taotie Tribe who were in the God King Realm came to the field one after another.
Among these people, apart from the high priest of the Taotie tribe, there were several elders.
They were not noisy or shouting.
After arriving at the scene, they stood quietly behind Tao Yongsheng, watching Ji Tianxing silently.
Seeing that Ji Tianxing was from the Dragon Clan, seeing the ruins behind him, and the two Tao Rongxings in a state of embarrassment, several elders showed a hint of surprise in their eyes.
After a while of silence, Tao Yongsheng spoke first and asked in a low tone: "Who can tell me what is going on?"
He had been practicing in seclusion before and didn't know what happened.
The noise of everyone fighting and fighting just now was too loud, which disturbed his cultivation.
Therefore, he was holding back his anger and his face was very gloomy.
The villain Tao Rongxing complained first, and said impatiently: "Let me inform the clan leader, that young man from the dragon tribe is called Long Tian, and we kindly invite him to be our guest in the Star-Eating Cave.
Unexpectedly, he actually coveted our clan's resources and treasures and went on a killing spree in Wangchuan Palace..."
Tao Yuxing also shouted with grief and anger: "The patriarch, the two deacons Wangchuan and Changji have already lost their lives at his hands.
There were twenty other guards who were also killed by him and his companions.
Fortunately you came in time, otherwise we would have died by his sword!"
The words of the two men were extremely inflammatory. After hearing this, the dozens of Taotie people around them were filled with indignation and shared the same hatred, and stared at Ji Tianxing angrily.
But only those Taotie people would believe this kind of nonsense.
The high priest and several elders had no reaction and looked indifferent.
Tao Yongsheng was noncommittal, looked at Ji Tianxing and asked, "Young man, what do you want to say?"
Upon hearing his words, Tao Rongxing and Tao Yuxing's expressions suddenly changed.
The clan leader clearly didn't believe what they said and gave Ji Tianxing a chance to defend himself.
Ji Tianxing also raised his eyebrows, with a meaningful smile on his lips.
"Before, I thought that the Taotie clan were greedy, cunning and vicious people.
Tao Wangchuan and Tao Changji were very enthusiastic about me and invited me warmly. When I came to the Star-Eating Cave, they secretly colluded with the two elders to kill me and my guards.
This makes me very disappointed and hateful towards the Taotie clan!
Now it seems that I have wrongly blamed you. I didn’t expect that the Taotie Clan leader understands justice well and can distinguish right from wrong..."
What Ji Tianxing was most worried about before was that the Taotie clan leader and several elders, like Tao Rongxing and Tao Yuxing, had no regard for benevolence, justice and morality, and would fight each other when they met.
In that case, if he wanted to escape from the Star-Eating Cave, he would have to use some means, which would be very difficult.
But things were not as bad as he expected. The Taotie clan chief, the high priest and several elders were able to remain rational and restrained for the time being.
This leaves room for change.
Of course, Ji Tianxing just said that.
In fact, in his heart, he would never trust anyone from the Taotie tribe again!
Tao Yongsheng suddenly grinned, nodded slightly and said: "Young man, you are also a sensible person, and I appreciate it very much!
Yes, we Taotie people have always been hospitable, kind and generous.
In the ten thousand years since I have been in charge of the Taotie Clan, the number of foreigners who have come to the Star-Eating Cave as guests has been not only ten thousand but also eight thousand.
But when have you ever heard that our Taotie tribe will murder the lives of our guests?
This is simply nonsense!
Even if there are some rumors from the outside world, they are just baseless rumors and sheer nonsense!"
After finishing speaking, Tao Yongsheng pointed to Tao Rongxing and Tao Yuxing, and said with an indignant look: "I really didn't expect that I usually discipline these people so strictly, but I still can't restrain these people.
Now, two scum have appeared in the clan, doing such outrageous things.
Don't worry, Long Tian, I will definitely investigate the truth of the matter, punish them severely, and punish them to warn the people of the tribe.
In addition, this incident was just an accident, caused by the confusion of those two scum, and it definitely cannot represent the entire Taotie clan..."
Tao Yongsheng rebuked Tao Rongxing in front of everyone, saying that Tao Yuxing was a scum and brought shame to the Taotie clan.
The two elders were scolded so badly that their bodies and faces were completely ruined. They were both ashamed and inexplicably sad and angry.
However, they could not refute, so they could only lower their heads, endure the humiliation, and pretend to admit their mistake.
Seeing this scene, Ji Tianxing smiled on his face and expressed his approval of Tao Yongsheng's handling of the matter and his satisfaction with his attitude.
But in fact, the more Tao Yongsheng explained to him and apologized, the colder his eyes became.
Because he had already seen that Tao Yongsheng was using this as a delaying tactic.
I'm afraid Tao Yongsheng also had murderous intentions.
It's just that he didn't understand the situation before him yet, so he endured it for the time being and was just taking advantage of the situation.
Ji Tianxing knew it well.
After Tao Yongsheng apologized, he tentatively said: "Clan Tao is selfless, upright and majestic, and I really admire him.
Since Patriarch Tao wants to investigate the truth and clean up the family, I will not bother you anymore and take my leave..."
