Conclusion

Sect Master Tang Xiao already had a plan in mind, and at most, the other elders didn't say much.

"No problem, we'll do as you say, Sect Master!"

The Second Elder was the first to express his opinion.

"I agree with what the sect leader said!"

The Fifth Elder continued from the Second Elder's words and expressed his opinion.

"I agree!"

"I agree!"

Then the Sixth Elder and the Seventh Elder expressed their opinions one after another.

After all, the Third Elder was a member of the Clear Sky Sect Elder Council.

Although the Spirit Bone Set was lost from him.

However, we all share the same roots and were born from the Clear Sky Sect, so we can't hurt each other or kick each other when we're down.

Therefore, everyone, with the intention of investigating the matter thoroughly, did not make things too difficult for the Third Elder.

The Third Elder was extremely grateful for this.

At the same time, the Third Elder felt very guilty and innocent because the six pieces of the Jade Scale Dog Spirit Bone Set had disappeared from his body!

It's like bad luck has come crashing down on you!

Next, it was time for the Third Elder to swear an oath with his Martial Soul and the lives of his entire family.

In front of Sect Master Tang Xiao and the Second, Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Elder, the Third Elder released his Martial Soul.

This is a Clear Sky Hammer that is entirely dark and engraved with mysterious patterns!

Holding the Clear Sky Hammer, the Third Elder looked solemn.

"I swear by my Martial Soul Clear Sky Hammer and the lives of my entire family that if I, Tang Shan, secretly possess or covet the Jade Scale Dog Spirit Bone Set, and betray my ancestors, then my Tang Shan Martial Soul will be shattered, and I will suffer a fate worse than death for the rest of my life! At the same time, my entire family will also suffer a terrible end!"

The Third Elder, with a solemn and sincere expression, completed his oath in front of everyone.

"Alright, third brother, I believe you are innocent. We need to investigate this matter further!"

Seeing this, Sect Master Tang Xiao nodded and reassured the Third Elder.

"Thank you for your trust, Sect Master. This matter is truly strange, and there must be a problem somewhere. I am willing to cooperate with everyone in the investigation!"

The Third Elder spoke up cheerfully.

"OK!"

Sect Master Tang Xiao was satisfied with the Third Elder's attitude and nodded in response.

At this moment, the Seventh Elder interjected.

"Sect Master, and all elders, I have something to say that may seem inappropriate at this time!"

The Seventh Elder spoke in a deep voice in front of everyone.

"Speak!"

Sect Master Tang Xiao waved his hand and said.

"The Heaven Dou Imperial Family is pressing us hard. Today they sent another letter to discuss the placement of the Jade Scale Dog Spirit Bone Set with us!"

"Previously, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family had come several times, but we had delayed and turned them away with various excuses."

"But now, the Jade Scale Dog Spirit Bone Set is completely lost. What should we do?"

"How are we going to explain this to the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect?!"

The Seventh Elder's face was gloomy as he spoke.

His deep voice and the terrible news were like buckets of cold water poured over everyone's heads.

At this moment, everyone's mood suddenly turned sour and gloomy.

"Yes, the Spirit Bone Set is lost. How are we going to explain this to the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect?"

"We've already offended the Spirit Hall, and now we're going to antagonize the other two major sects of the Upper Three Sects, as well as the Heaven Dou Empire?"

"What should we do?!"

The hot-tempered Fifth Elder showed a hint of anxiety on his face.

Suddenly, Sect Master Tang Xiao and the other elders came to their senses and realized the seriousness of the matter.

The Third Elder's face turned even paler. Since the Soul Bone was lost while he was in charge, he had to bear the majority of the responsibility.

"Damn it, I'm doomed!"

The Third Elder felt like crying but had no tears left.

After a moment, Sect Master Tang Xiao broke the silence.

"Let's investigate first!"

"Let's investigate the specifics first. If it really wasn't the third brother's doing, but rather the Soul Bone stored in the storage belt disappeared into thin air, then there are two possibilities!"

"The first possibility is that there was a problem with the Jade Scale Dog Spirit Bone Set, which is why they disappeared into thin air!"

"The second possibility is that there is a defect in this storage belt, which has temporarily hidden the Soul Bone!"

Sect Master Tang Xiao boldly proposed two possibilities, speculating.

Upon hearing this, the Second Elder, the head of the Elder Council, brightened up and continued Tang Xiao's words:

"The sect leader is right!"

"Therefore, there are two urgent tasks that need to be accomplished!"

"The first thing is to investigate the third son's family and prove his innocence!"

"The second thing is to check if there are any problems with the storage belt!"

"If both of these things prove that the disappearance of the Spirit Bone Set has nothing to do with my Clear Sky Sect, then the only possibility is that there is a problem with these six Soul Bone themselves!"

"No matter what happens then, we'll have no choice but to blame the Heaven Dou Auction House and demand an explanation from them!"

"Our Clear Sky Sect bear this responsibility; we cannot swallow this bitter pill!"

The Second Elder spoke in an orderly manner.

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

"However, this investigation should have a time limit, shouldn't it?"

"The Heaven Dou Imperial Family can't wait any longer!"

"We urge the Sect Master to set a suitable time so that we can give an explanation to the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect!"

The Seventh Elder spoke up.

After pondering for a while, Sect Master Tang Xiao said:

"What do you think about two days?"

"If this drags on for too long, I'm afraid the Heaven Dou Imperial Family and the other two major sects will have some complaints, and then it will be difficult to explain!"

Two days is neither a long nor a short time; it's enough for them to investigate thoroughly.

"Okay, two days it will be!"

The Second Elder nodded in agreement.

"I agree!"

"I agree!"

"Agree!"

"."

The third, fifth, sixth, and Seventh Elder successively expressed their opinions.

"Alright, let's get started without delay!"

Sect Master Tang Xiao addressed the crowd.

Next, Tang Xiao, the Second Elder, the Fifth Elder, the Sixth Elder, and the Seventh Elder, all Titled Douluo powerhouses, began to take action.

Tang Xiao was in charge of investigating the Third Elder himself.

The Second Elder was in charge of investigating whether there were any problems with the storage belt.

The Fifth Elder and the Sixth Elder were responsible for investigating the Third Elder's family members, as well as some suspicious disciples of the sect.

The Seventh Elder was in charge of diplomacy, overseeing correspondence with the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect!

And so, an investigation was secretly launched within the Clear Sky Sect.

Although the sect leader and elders did not tell the disciples publicly.

However, at this moment, the disciples had a vague premonition of something bad, and they lived in constant fear.

The two-day period passed quickly.

Sect Master Tang Xiao, along with the Second Elder, Third Elder, Fifth Elder, Sixth Elder, and Seventh Elder, gathered together once again.

Inside the council hall, led by Sect Master Tang Xiao, each elder recounted their investigation.

After a round of presentations, everyone came to a conclusion!

Good night, everyone! Good afternoon! Good morning! Have a wonderful day!
