Chapter 1003: Metamorphosis 77

lanned by her."Imperial Dowager, the late Emperor said that I poisoned him. Now even Princess Yaohua has spoken up and said it was you, yet you still want me to confess. If you dare to do it, then you...Hearing Yao Song and Yao Bi's argument, the other elders all looked at Feng Lingxi who remained silent. This was her proposal, but now that there was a dispute, she stayed quiet, which made the elders feel uncomfortable.

"Lord, what are your intentions for this matter"

Feng Lingxi looked at Yao Song and Yao Bi, her eyes cold. "What the two elders said is reasonable. I'm thinking, should we handle it according to the clan rules, or as Yao Bi said, since this matter hasn't been clarified, wait until it's clear before making a decision"

"Lord, Yao Tong used the excuse of going down the mountain to practice as a reason to go to Gui Sheng Guo, the territory of the Yao Clan's patriarch. His purpose is sinister. According to clan rules, he should be dismissed and investigated. If everyone needs to check clearly, it will take another year and a half to find out where Yao Tong went. By then, Yao Tong would have already taken advantage of his elder status to do everything he wanted to do."

When Yao Song finished speaking, Yao Bi was enraged.

"Yao Song, according to your words, punishment is given before things are clear. In that case, who among the elders of the Yao clan would dare to do their duty"

"There's nothing that can't be said. The Yao Clan has always been open and honest in their dealings. If they even try to hide things, there must be something fishy going on. Since there's a problem, they have no right to remain silent."

Yao Song's words were echoed by the other elders, "Third Elder, you are right. We shouldn't condone this."

"If the Elder Six's actions were truly without reproach, why would they hide their whereabouts"

"Didn't the former saint also initially handle things covertly Why is it not allowed when it's our turn"

"Master of the Ancients My mother"

Feng Lingxi's eyes narrowed slightly, and Yao Bi realized he had let slip. He quickly changed the subject.

"I mean, everyone has their own reasons. You can't just punish someone without giving them a chance to explain."

Feng Lingxi heard Yao Bi's words and suddenly laughed.

"You're right, everyone has their own secrets. In that case, I will follow Elder Yao Bi's suggestion and first ask the Sixth Elder for clarification before proceeding with the punishment."

"Lord..."

Yao Song's face was grim, and he wanted to speak, but Feng Lingxi stopped him.

"We should be able to bring back the Six Elders in a few days. Then we can ask them about it before making a decision."

When Yao Bi heard Feng Ling Xi's words, his eyes flashed with a hint of panic, but he quickly concealed it.

"That concludes today's meeting. The three elders, please remain. Everyone else, please depart."

Yao Bi glanced at Yao Song. Could it be that what he had just said caught the attention of the Holy Lord and made him want to raise his elder status

Other elders in the hall dispersed one after another. Feng Lingxi could tell that although they all stood on Yao Song's side, most of them were unwilling to provoke Yao Bi. They just mouthed agreement and didn't act like Yao Song, who followed the rules meticulously.

"Yao Song, do you know why I left you"

Yao Song hurriedly clasped his hands and said, "I don't know about this, but I suspect it has something to do with Measuring Heaven and the Six Elders."

"You are right about the Sixth Elder, but Yao Bi's words also make sense. If I were to directly sentence him today, he would probably be the first to object."

"Is the Lord afraid he will cause trouble"

Feng Lingxi responded in kind. This Yao Bi is a ruthless character, to be precise, this Yao Bi may have misjudged her at first.

Why would the Yao people listen to just a woman's word It's simply because of her status as the Saintess, which suppresses them. Without this identity, what would she be in their eyes

Feng Lingxi knew this well, so she followed Yao Bi's words and temporarily let it go. She wanted to see what Yao Bi's attitude was.

"Lord, does my subordinate need to watch him"

Yao Song is a smart person. Since Feng Ling Xi suspects Yao Bi, as long as he follows Feng Ling Xi's lead, Yao Bi can naturally be eliminated. Moreover, considering the relationship between the Six Elders and Yao Bi, Yao Bi's protection of the Six Elders, as long as he cooperates slightly, these two will inevitably have no way out.

"See if he has any connection with the Sixth Elder."

Just now, the Holy Lord did say to bring back the six elders, didn't he Could it be...

As soon as Yao Song spoke, Feng Lingxi looked at him, and suddenly understood.

"I see."

Elder Six had probably already left. If I had told Yao Bi about this earlier, he would have definitely stuck to his guns. So I pretended to say that Elder Six was coming back. If he really had something to hide, he would soon show his true colors.

"The Lord is wise, my subordinate shall go at once."

"Thank you, Elder Three."

Feng Lingxi watched Yao Song leave and looked away.

"Your Highness."

Xiaoli called out, looking at the worry in the queen's eyes, and said, "Can we trust these three elders"

Among the Yao clan, both the upper and lower ranks are not simple individuals. This Yao Bi was also chosen by the princess during her selection process, but even now, she doesn't disobey the princess's intentions. It's clear that she isn't loyal to the princess. Even I can see the greed in Yao Bi's eyes.

Whether it's true or not, it's clear that he dislikes Yao.

Let Yao Song let go, and also just see if this Yao Song has any feelings for her.

"Xiao Li, go to the Holy Temple. I want to find some information about my mother. As the former Saint Sovereign, she compiled and recorded everything in the Chronicles of Saints. I want to see if there are any clues."

Xiaoli accompanied Feng Lingxi to the Holy Temple Pavilion. The news spread quickly, and there was doubt among the Yao clan about Feng Lingxi's return. A grand meeting was convened upon his return, and he also went to the Holy Temple Pavilion. This clearly indicated an investigation, and within the Yao clan, everyone knew who Feng Lingxi could be investigating besides the case of the former Saint Lord.

Feng Lingxi brought back all the historical records about her mother's fall from the cliff to the Holy Temple for review. This time, she used the investigation of her mother's case as a cover to secretly investigate Luo Li's identity, but Feng Lingxi didn't tell anyone in the clan about this.

The elders inquired, Feng Lingxi also wanted to know about the events that happened before her mother's fall from the cliff. The more details, the better. Yao Wan Ying’s matter was something the Yao tribe people were reluctant to be involved with in the first place. Feng Lingxi's investigation, those who had nothing to do with it naturally pretended not to know, and those who were related to the case even pretended not to know so as not to be found out.

Yao Bi waited for two days but neither Feng Ling Xi came to punish him nor did she bring back the Six Elders. After much thought, he quietly sent someone down the mountain to investigate.

Feng Lingxi was waiting for precisely this move from Yao Bi. Once Yao Bi made his move, Yao Song immediately kept an eye on him and reported every one of his actions to Feng Lingxi.

Over the next few days, Yao Bi's people went out to contact the Six Elders. When they learned that the Six Elders were not in Feng Lingxi's hands, Yao Bi's face turned pale with panic, but it was too late.

Yao Song arrived with his people and caught Yao Bi right there. Looking at Yao Song, there was no fear on Yao Bi's face. He calmly watched the people he brought.

"Third Elder, what do you mean by this"

"Yao Bi, you shouldn't explain why you sent people to contact the Sixth Elder," Feng Lingxi emerged from the shadows. Several clansmen who had been escorted in behind her were all subordinates of Yao Bi. Seeing them captured, Yao Bi did not show any panic.ed her gaze."My body is really okay.""If you don't want to talk about your business, I won't ask. But Xi'er, you need to remember not to carry everything on your own shoulders. Doing so will only worr...
