Tao Yongsheng told Ji Tianxing that after finding out the truth of the matter, Tao Rongxing and Tao Yuxing would be severely punished.
But the punishment he gave the two elders was so...slight.
Apart from being a warning and a deterrent, it did not cause any substantial harm to the two elders.
Anyway, their salary as elders is not high, and they only have a few hundred million sacred stones accumulated over thousands of years.
Which of the powerful God-Kings like them doesn't have hundreds of billions of wealth?
Their source of wealth does not come from the Taotie clan's salary.
Therefore, Tao Rongxing and Tao Yuxing were filled with joy and quickly bowed and thanked them.
"We are convinced of the clan leader's decision!"
"Thank you, Patriarch, for your extra mercy. We will definitely remember your teachings and never make the same mistake again!"
After the two elders saluted and thanked him, Tao Yongsheng waved his hand and continued: "I've been punished. Now tell me, what is the origin of Long Tian?"
Also, you said that he seemed to be accompanied by a guard?
What's going on?"
Tao Rongxing quickly replied: "Chief Qi, that Longtian was brought back by Wangchuan and Zhangji after they met by chance in the Liyue Mountains and were deceived by clever words.
At that time, there was a guard beside Long Tian, which was a golden-winged roc in the upper-level divine monarch realm...
Although Long Tian and the golden roc were both seriously injured, Wangchuan realized that Long Tian was very powerful, so he came to us privately and asked us to help.
And when we entered the Wangchuan Palace and took action against Long Tian, we discovered that his strength was indeed very strong, comparable to the superior God King!
Moreover, he also brought three guards from the God King Realm with him.
The three guards seem to be all gods, one is a high-ranking god-king of the Phoenix clan’s bloodline, and the other two are mid-level god-kings.”
After listening to Tao Rongxing's explanation, Tao Yongsheng immediately frowned, his eyes shining brightly.
"No wonder Wangchuan Palace was destroyed, Wangchuan, the captain and twenty guards were killed, and you two were also seriously injured.
Unexpectedly, he seemed to be alone, but in fact he had four guards with him?
Moreover, among the four guards, there are actually Jinpeng and Phoenix bloodlines?"
Having said this, a bloodthirsty sneer appeared at the corner of Tao Yongsheng's mouth, and he licked the corner of his mouth greedily.
"He is of the top dragon bloodline, and the guards around him are of Jinpeng and Phoenix bloodline.
Hahaha... Although Wangchuan and Changji are dead, I have to say that the luck of these two guys is really incredible!
They two are the blessings of our clan!"
The high priest quickly nodded in agreement and sneered sinisterly: "No matter the bloodline of the Dragon Clan, Phoenix Clan or Jinpeng Clan, they are all more powerful than the bloodline of our Taotie Clan.
It just so happens that the clan leader has been practicing in seclusion, but he is stuck at the ninth level of the God King Realm and has never been able to reach the peak.
These foreign tribesmen came at the right time, and the clan leader’s great opportunity has finally arrived!”
Tao Rongxing and Tao Yuxing understood instantly that the clan leader would not let Long Tian and his guards go.
The clan leader must devour those three noble bloodlines to strengthen his own bloodline and increase his strength!
In other words, the two of them worked hard in this game in vain, but they couldn't even get a hair out of it.
Not only was he severely injured, but he was also fined a thousand years of salary by the clan leader.
It’s really a waste of money!
Both of them felt a little depressed thinking about it.
However, the patriarch has been particularly kind to them.
They couldn't ask for anything, and they didn't dare to show their dissatisfaction.
After a while of silence, Tao Yuxing asked: "Chief, now that the situation is clear, when will you take action?"
"No rush." Tao Yongsheng waved his hand, showing a confident smile, and said: "A cooked duck can't fly!
Moreover, you have already failed once, and the matter will definitely spread throughout the Star-Eating Cave and be known to the clan members.
Next time I take action, I must take a long-term approach, plan carefully, and never fail!"
The high priest nodded slightly and agreed: "That's right! The patriarch can only succeed when he takes action, and there must be no mistakes.
Otherwise, it will damage the majesty of the patriarch.
In addition, if this matter cannot be resolved here, it will arouse criticism from the tribe.
I propose to place it on Fanxing Cliff..."
Fanxing Cliff is a cliff that is ten thousand feet high and is close to the space barrier.
It is directly north of the Taotie tribe's camp, 90,000 miles away.
In other words, it is the northern edge of the Star-Eating Cave, an inaccessible place.
But it is close to the space barrier, allowing you to enjoy the vast starry sky without any obstruction and bathe in the glow of billions of stars.
Therefore, the star power of Fanxing Cliff is extremely abundant, and it has become a treasure place and scenic spot in the Star Devouring Cave.
On weekdays, Fanxing Cliff is sealed by the divine formation, and only clan leaders, elders and deacons can enter.
Upon hearing the high priest's suggestion, Tao Rongxing and Tao Yuxing's eyes lit up and they nodded in agreement.
"That's right! It's safest to put it on Fanxing Cliff. No matter what happens there, the clansmen won't know about it."
"The high priest is still thoughtful! Even if a fight breaks out and a huge noise is made, it will not be transmitted here."
Tao Yongsheng frowned and weighed it for a moment before nodding and agreeing to the proposal.
"Okay, then do as the high priest says!"
Then, he began to give orders and arranged a series of tasks for everyone.
"Send an order to the Great Elder, asking him and the other four elders to keep a close eye on Long Tian and never allow him to leave Wuxian Palace.
Rong Xing, Yu Xing, you enter the ancestral altar immediately and treat your injuries as soon as possible.
High Priest, you take twenty elite experts and follow me to Star Cliff.
I’m going to Fanxing Cliff to make some arrangements. Only by preparing in advance can I ensure that nothing goes wrong.”
The high priest and the two elders said they obeyed, bowed and left, and went to carry out their tasks.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the high priest quietly summoned twenty elite experts and followed Tao Yongsheng to Fanxing Cliff to lay a trap in advance.
…
There is already an undercurrent surging in the camp of the Taotie tribe.
In the past two days, thousands of Taotie people have been discussing one thing.
A young man from the dragon tribe fought with two elders in the camp, destroyed the Wangchuan Palace and killed twenty guards.
In the end, the dragon youth was safe and sound, and the clan leader severely punished the two elders.
Just because the two elders had evil intentions, they conspired to kill the dragon youth and wanted to take away his dragon blood.
Thousands of Taotie clan members were sighing with emotion, becoming more and more awe and admiration for their clan leader.
"The patriarch has always taught us that if we are not strong enough, we should keep a low profile and be patient, and we must never provoke powerful enemies.
Those two elders are also confused and dare to provoke the Dragon Clan God King. Doesn’t this create a strong enemy for our clan?”
"Yes! Fortunately, the clan leader came forward in time and stabilized the dragon youth, so this matter did not become a big deal.
If the news spreads or reaches the Dragon Clan, not only will our clan’s reputation be damaged, but we will also suffer retaliation from the Dragon Clan!”
"The patriarch has worked really hard for our peace and tranquility."
"I heard that in order to calm down the matter, the clan leader severely reprimanded and punished the two elders, just to give the Dragon Clan God King a satisfactory explanation..."
