The Scapegoat

"If I remember correctly, Long Chao should be very proficient in formations, right? He seems to have the ability to break the guardian formations." Someone in the crowd said, "Good guy, now his suspicion is even greater."

At this time Long Xuan said again, "If I remember correctly, he seems to have Cockroach Gu, right? Cockroach Gu is pierced through the heart. Why is he lying on the ground pretending to be dead?"

Good guy, as soon as Long Xuan said this, his suspicion became even greater. Everyone looked at Long Chao with wide eyes, and their eyes became even weirder.

How could anyone with Cockroach Gu hide it from his eyes? Long Xuan did not want to wrongly accuse him. His behavior of pretending to be dead was indeed abnormal. What Long Chen said when he kicked him was also very intriguing. If he had not colluded with the Soul Clan, then it would be a ghost.

Since he is indeed colluding with the Soul Clan, then let him simply take the blame. For such a person who cheats and cheats, there is no need to have any psychological burden.

At this time, Long Chao was completely confused. No one knew about Cockroach Gu. How did this person know?

He didn't have time to think about it, when Long Wanli walked over quickly with a ferocious expression, then picked up his collar and lifted him up, dug into his abdomen, and took out a bloody Cockroach Gu.

Seeing this Gu Insect, Long Wanli laughed angrily, "Wow! It's really good! You really impress me."

"First use Cockroach Gu to fake death, then after everyone gets out, you come back to life and steal Sacred Tree secretly, then lie on the ground and continue to pretend to be dead."

"You had the nerve to ask what happened after you woke up!"

"You are so good at acting!"

Long Wanli threw Long Chao heavily to the ground and shouted loudly, "Come here, take this eating thing down and torture him."

"I want to know all the collusion between him and Soul Clan, and find out if Long Chen was also assassinated by him!"

Two muscular Long Family Gu cultivators immediately walked out of the crowd. They grabbed his shoulders with ferocious expressions and dragged him out.

At this time, Long Chao's face was completely pale. He had fainted from the kick just now. He really didn't know what happened.

He didn't know how the Sacred Tree branch broke. He still doesn't know what happened. Why did he become a suspect when he woke up, and all the clues pointed to him.

The matter of destroying the formation, killing Long Chen, and colluding with the Soul Clan really cannot withstand investigation. Once these things are verified, the crime of destroying Sacred Tree will be completely pinned on him. It is simply an unjust death. No one will believe him no matter how he explains.

At this time, he finally realized that he was afraid, his eyes showed fear, and he hurriedly shouted, "The master of the house is wronged! Sacred Tree The broken branch really has nothing to do with me..."

His voice became farther and farther away, and everyone showed disgust and looked at him with contempt.

"Hmph! I've long seen that his character is not good, but I didn't expect that he could even do such a thing. Lineage What good does it do to him if his strength is greatly reduced? It's not good for himself to hurt others."

"Why don't you think about it? His Evil Dragon Emperor Eye is of the highest quality, and has the top ten ability Soul Seed. Once it transforms perfectly, it will be invincible at the same level. How can he be willing to transform Evil Dragon Emperor Eye in an imperfect state?"

"That can't be at the expense of destroying Lineage, right? Look at Long Ziyan. He has exactly the same Evil Dragon Emperor Eye and the same ability as Soul Seed. Why didn't he do the same thing?"

"It seems that Long Chao is definitely doomed this time. As a traitor to the clan, according to the clan rules, he must bear the punishment of being bitten by thousands of insects. His body will be filled with insect eggs, and then eaten bit by bit by the larvae from the inside out. This kind of pain is worse than death, and the death speed is extremely slow. It is impossible to escape within three months."

"That's what you deserve..."

The crowd talked a lot and slowly dispersed under the command of Long Wanli, but the heated discussion lingered for a long time.

This was destined to be a sleepless night. If such a big thing happened, it would cause quite a stir in the whole clan.

The eyewash activity will definitely not continue. Sacred Tree was seriously injured and needs to recuperate. Everyone's Dragon's Tear rewards will be cancelled, and can only be replaced with contribution point rewards.

The following sacrificial activities were held on time, but there were more sacrifices. After a large number of cattle and sheep were slaughtered, the Long Family people poured blood around Sacred Tree. It is not difficult to see that the cultivation method of Sacred Tree is probably based on blood.

Long Xuan has all seen a spiritual tree that drinks magma. Now seeing a spiritual tree that drinks blood will not surprise him at all.

However, if you want to plant Divine Dragon Tree, you may have to raise a large number of cattle and sheep at home, and building a large pasture may become your next task.

Building a pasture requires a large area of land, and the pasture must be sufficient. His land is notoriously large, and it can really meet the needs of building a pasture.

In this way, he would have fresh beef and mutton to eat in the future. Thinking of the hot pot in his previous life, Long Xuan's throat twitched and he couldn't help but feel greedy. There is a chili elixir in this world, and the spiciness is much higher than in the previous life.

At this time, the whole clan was solemnly worshiping Sacred Tree, but he was actually thinking about food and worshiping without any piety.

He didn't pay attention to what the head of the family said on the altar, he was already out of his mind.

It was not until the end that everyone knelt down and worshiped around Sacred Tree, making wishes to Sacred Tree one after another. Long Xuan looked pious, and made a wish in his heart that he and Long Ziyan could achieve positive results as soon as possible. Then the long-lasting sacrificial activities finally came to an end.

Long Xuan was already impatient with waiting. As soon as the sacrificial activities were over, he hurried home. He couldn't wait to study the Cutting Propagation Technique of the spiritual tree.

But as soon as he arrived home, he immediately noticed someone in Rubik's Cube Grand Formation, and he couldn't help but frown deeply. Who broke into a house in the middle of the night?

He impatiently checked a few people trapped in Rubik's Cube Grand Formation, but after seeing two people releasing the breath of the Spiritual Sea Realm Gu cultivator, his expression suddenly changed.

"There are actually Spiritual Sea Stage powerful people coming to visit? I can't afford to offend them, I can't afford to offend them, so let's just let them be trapped inside."

With that said, he ignored the people in the formation who were going crazy and walked quickly to the top of the mountain.

It was already late at night, and the owner of the house was in the attic.

"How's the trial going?" Long Wanli asked with a gloomy face.

The old man from the Ten Clans looked tired and said helplessly, "After a night of investigation, it was found that whether it was the destruction of the formation or the death of Long Chen, it was all done by him. It was indeed him who colluded with the Soul Clan to lure the enemy."

"We found Soul Clan Gu Xiu's letters on his dead body. The evidence is conclusive and there is absolutely no possibility of overturning the case."

"Just as we suspected before, his motive was to get more Divine Dragon Milk for Evil Dragon Emperor Eye, but we never found where he hid the broken branches, and he refused to admit it."

"This guy is very tough-talking, and he also harbors some last-ditch illusions. He will never let go until the evidence is presented to him. If we hadn't found his letters in the Soul Clan's Storage Bag, he still wouldn't have admitted that he had colluded with foreigners."

Long Wanli slapped the table heavily, with blazing anger in his eyes, and said angrily, "This bastard dares to speak harshly. Why is he lying on the ground pretending to be dead if he didn't do it?"

"There's no need to look for it. Even if I find the Sacred Tree branch, it's impossible to reattach it. If I just use insect torture on him without cutting him into pieces, it's really hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart!"

Long Wanli was so angry that he lost his former reason and actually planned to use the most cruel criminal law to torture Long Chao to death.

"What about Long Chao's Evil Dragon Emperor Eye? All of his Gu Insect have all terminated the blood contract under my pressure." asked the old man tentatively.

Long Wanli slowly calmed down, and after calming down the anger in his heart, he said, "His Evil Dragon Emperor Eye has the magical skill Soul Seed, which is really important to Lineage."

"Long Ziyan is the champion of Gu-Dueling Tournament this time. I think I will give her this Evil Dragon Emperor Eye as a championship reward."

"The ability of this Evil Dragon Emperor Eye is the same as her Evil Dragon Emperor Eye ability. They are both Soul Seeds that are rare in a thousand years. Let her use the second transformation route of Evil Dragon Emperor Eye to transform, which is enough for her Evil Dragon Emperor Eye to transform perfectly."

"Once Soul Seed transforms perfectly, it will be really terrifying. Our clan will definitely produce a super strong person in the future."

The ten clan elders nodded and said, "That's exactly what I meant. Long Chao's motive for rebelling has given us a wake-up call. Although I trust Long Ziyan very much, it would be better to completely eliminate this uncertainty."

Long Wanli also said with lingering fear, "This kind of thing has happened more than once in the history of our clan. Lineage has even been severely damaged several times and was almost in danger of annihilation."

"It wasn't until modern times that Earth Spiritual Power was depleted day by day, causing the materials used to refine Evil Dragon Emperor Eye to disappear on a large scale. It was difficult for Evil Dragon Emperor Eye to awaken its ability to defy the heavens again due to the depleted materials. Therefore, this kind of thing has never happened again."

"I didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen again during my tenure as the head of the family. It's also my fault. I knew the family history well but relaxed my vigilance in this regard, which almost caused a catastrophe."

Long Wanli's face instantly became much older, and he sighed and said, "As for Long Chao's remaining Gu Insect, let's consider them as contributions and put them in Treasure Repository."

"But the traitor's Gu Insect must be something that few people are willing to take, so let's lower our contribution a little."

Long Wanli changed the topic and said, "Let's not talk about this matter for now. It is in the past. Let's write this matter in the family history so that future generations can use history as a mirror. We still have to look forward."

"Go and call Long Ao over now. Let me ask him how confident he is that he can refine Profound Dragon Pill. Profound Dragon Pill is the elixir most suitable for the Long Family's bloodline breakthrough. If you can refine it yourself, even if it consumes a lot of materials due to failure, it is better than buying elixirs from outside."

"Cultivating the second Gu King is what our clan needs to do now."

"Okay, I'll call him right away." Thinking of this, the elder of the Ten Clans also looked expectant and immediately walked towards Old Long's Red Jade Peak.
