Bright Hall.
"The report of Elder Hughes is not exaggerated. It is difficult to verify the early stage of the Battle of Qiushayuan, but in the later stage, especially the final blow of Xin, many people saw it. We investigated sixty bystanders who witnessed the final blow, The conclusions we got are very unified. We arranged for 70 elders to read more than 3,000 copies of ancient books and historical materials overnight, and finally got nine people who may be suspected targets, but we are still unable to determine his true identity."
"Considering that the source of the letter may have a deep relationship with the Masefield family, we also investigated the Masefield family. We checked the history of the Masefield family, but the information is very limited. The Masefield family has a very long history , their ancestors were branches of the Northland family, and the Northland family can be traced back to 20,000 years ago. Unfortunately, due to the poor survival status of the Masefield family in the past, the preservation of this information is also very poor, and no What useful information."
Elder Taffy’s report was as detailed as ever. His face was full of wrinkles, but he was hale and hearty, his gray eyes were always sharp, his hair was combed meticulously, and his white holy robe was not bulky at all. Unlike other elders who always like to wear rings inlaid with sparkling gemstones, or like to wear delicate brooches, he has no decorations all over his body, just like a veteran waiting for orders at any time.
If it was the first time they met, few people would have thought that such a simple and spirited old man was actually the number two elder of the temple.
After listening to Elder Tafei's report, the Great Elder said indifferently: "You have said so much, do you mean that there is no result?"
Elder Tafei's body trembled, his back was drenched with sweat, he lowered his head, forced himself to be calm and gritted his teeth and said, "Yes. We didn't find any valuable information."
When the Great Elder was unknown, Tafei was the Great Elder's deputy. He followed the Great Elder all the way, and for more than forty years, he worked hard and won the trust of the Great Elder. After the Great Elder became the master of the Temple of Light, he was promoted step by step and became the number two figure in the temple.
After following for many years, he has a very good understanding of the character of the Great Elder, and he did not hide anything because he might offend the Great Elder. However, the increasing coercion of the Great Elder still made him nervous involuntarily. This had nothing to do with habits, but an instinctive reaction of the body.
The great elder pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Tell Hughes, I give him the greatest authorization, I need to see this soul general."
"Yes." Tafei complied, he hesitated for a moment: "Could it be from the Heavenly Path? I'm worried that this soul general has something to do with the Southern League. Tang Tian of the Southern League has a very powerful soul general under his command. "
The voice of the great elder came from the golden flame, calm and full of confidence: "As long as he is a soul general, it doesn't matter."
Tafi nodded: "Understood. The Masefield family is a well-known family, which is in line with our principle of wooing."
"That's right. Those guys think that they can oppose us by joining forces. They think that if we launch it at this time, we will be wary. They think that I will compromise with them in order to take care of the overall situation." The voice of the Great Elder was full of sarcasm: "What a stupid idea."
Tafei knew that the Great Elder was really angry, and he also felt that these giants were going too far, even sacrificing the interests of Guangming Continent for his own benefit. Don't these idiots know what they will face if Guangmingzhou is defeated
Yes, they thought that the Great Elder would definitely not let Guangmingzhou fail, so the Great Elder would definitely compromise. However, they never imagined that the Great Elder was scheming.
He respectfully said: "They are seeking their own death."
"They're rotten, Taffy."
The voice of the Great Elder echoed in the Hall of Light.
"They have lost the courage and glory of their ancestors. They are just a group of mice addicted to playing tricks in the dark. They are not worthy of what they have now. But they will soon understand that what Guangmingzhou needs is not them. The temple is needed. The temple does not need them either. Their era has ended five hundred years ago. The temple needs fresh blood, and Guangmingzhou needs new blood. Cut off those rotten flesh and blood, we Welcome to the new life!"
The Great Elder's tone was passionate, Sheng Yan seemed to feel his mood, emitting a scorching light, he was like a golden sun.
"No one can stop us, including Masefield."
Elder Taffy was sincerely convinced, as always.
The other courtyard of the Huo Family is heavily guarded.
In the hall, apart from the Qiu family, the heads of the five wealthy families came together. The battle of Qiushayuan shocked Shengzhou. They all came overnight at the fastest speed, not daring to delay at all. They had just returned from surveying the Autumn Slaughter, and everyone's faces were filled with shock.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a powerful soul general in this world! The Qiu family didn't deserve to lose this time." Mo Yigu, the Patriarch of the Mo family, was both emotional and shocked.
The others nodded one after another and went to the scene. Seeing the completely destroyed Autumn Killing Courtyard, their feelings were even more profound. This time, Qiu's family fell apart completely. This defeat has had a profound impact on the Qiu family, and it is likely to cause the Qiu family to fall from now on. Thinking about the disappearance of a top wealthy family like this, everyone will inevitably feel sad.
However, they don't have time to feel sad for the Qiu family. At this juncture, such a big change has occurred, and what impact it will have on the current situation is what they are most concerned about.
Hal Vicari, the patriarch of the Vicari family, said in a deep voice: "Now we need to discuss the impact of this incident on us."
Everyone's complexions became solemn. The current situation is extremely delicate. Any small change may change the situation, let alone this is not a small change.
The serious injury to the Qiu family was definitely a bad thing for them. The original five families have become the current four, and their strength has been seriously damaged.
Hal Vicary continued: "The temple issued a summoning order. Although we have said hello, they still brought together more than 300 small families. In terms of the number of corps, we are at a disadvantage."
"Didn't the temple long ago want to replace us with these famous families they personally supported?" Huo Liushang snorted coldly: "Ever since they started to create a famous family that needs to be recognized by the temple, we have guessed that there will be such a day. Then let Let's measure how much energy those rednecks have."
"Maybe they are still dreaming of replacing us. It's really stupid." Mo Yigu shook his head: "The temple violated the oath of the year. They can no longer accommodate any wealthy family. They want to be the only masters of Bright Continent. Who do they want to live?" Just live, and whoever wants to die will die. These idiots are just a bunch of cannon fodder, not worth mentioning."
"No matter how much cannon fodder there is, it's still cannon fodder." Huo Liushang snorted coldly.
Hal reminded everyone: "The Masefield family is not cannon fodder. I have never heard of the soul general of the general rank, and that sword is also a great treasure. Even if the Autumn Killing Corps is destroyed, they His power is unfathomable. We must win the Masefields over."
"Agreed." Mo Yigu nodded: "Such a powerful soul general is an invincible army. If it falls into the hands of the temple, we will be in danger. Who has the confidence to defeat him?"
Everyone was silent.
All present were prominent and wealthy families, with many soldiers and generals, and geniuses emerged in large numbers, but no one dared to pat their chests and say that they could defeat that soul general.
Sandra Croft, who was always silent, said in a deep voice, "No matter what conditions he asks, satisfy him."
Sandra has the highest prestige among the four, and as soon as he spoke, the four immediately agreed.
"It's easy for him to meet with him, but now we have to ask for it." Hal had a headache on his face.
Sandra suddenly turned her eyes to Huoliruo who was behind Huo Liushang: "Who do you think Soul General saluted at that time?"
Huo Liruo revealed memories, and quickly said: "Yes. Senior Xin saluted the leader of the Iron Mask Army, calling him Young Master, and claiming to be his subordinate."
A trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes, yes, how could he forget such an important detail.
"Iron Mask Corps, Masefield, this person is the key." Sandra said lightly: "I believe he can see the situation clearly. Moreover, he can control such a powerful soul general, those things in the temple, He will be interested."
Huo Liushang's eyes lit up: "You mean..."
Everyone thought of the same answer, and couldn't help but cheer up.
White Snow City has been overcrowded recently, and almost everyone with dignity in Shengzhou runs here. Of course, the busiest place is the merchants in Masefield. Everyone knows how hot Masefield is these days.
The Temple and the five giants, oh, now the four giants, all try their best to win over the Masefield family. And there is a saying everywhere that this is the most critical battle between the two sides. Whichever side the Masefield family chooses will greatly increase the chance of victory.
The visiting guests these days almost overwhelmed the Masefield Chamber of Commerce. Both sides were fully mobilized, wave after wave of lobbyists, with astonishing wealth, and hype, instigation, and promises, in an endless stream.
The teahouse opposite the chamber of commerce is also overcrowded every day.
"Hey, the head of the Gust family, who do you think he is running for?"
"Go to the temple, he is a new famous family."
"This person looks familiar, hey, I can't remember it for a while."
"It seems to be the head of the Constance family."
"Yeah… "
Everyone looked at the excitement and enjoyed it. Snow White City is not a rural place, but it has never seen so many big shots. The crowd exclaimed from time to time, and those shiny and noble names kept appearing in front of their eyes.
People are lamenting that the world is impermanent, and the once small and famous family has become the key to the situation in Guangming Continent.
Who will Masefield choose? People are full of curiosity and worry. Except for the families who have already stood in line, most people only want the situation to become clear sooner.
