Didn't find the ancient jade, Gu Yun and Gu Shen took her back to the clan after Xun'er's emotions were a little better.

Returning to the Ancient Realm, Gu Yun and Gu Shen came to the main hall to find Gu Yuan.

Reported the process of this trip to Gu Yuan exactly.

This matter was not small, Gu Yuan directly contacted the elders of the Gu Clan to come and hold a meeting.

In the conference room.

"Patriarch, you summoned us to hold this meeting, is there anything?"

The first to speak was Gu Dao, one of the three immortals.

Gu Dao is the Supreme Elder of the Gu Clan, and his realm is in the late stage of the seven-star Dou Saint; except for Gu Yuan and other old people who have been in office for a long time, no one can compare with him in status.

Other elders also looked at Gu Yuan suspiciously.

"I summoned you here this time to discuss the matter of the Xiao Clan's ancient jade."

"Xiao Clan's ancient jade? Could it be that the Patriarch knows the whereabouts of the ancient jade?"

These elders also knew that some time ago the Soul Hall surrounded and suppressed the Xiao family, but didn't find the ancient jade.

"Just a few days ago, the people of the Soul Hall captured Xiao Yan of the Xiao Clan, and the ancient jade was on Xiao Yan, at that time I sent Elder Gu Yun to go, but unfortunately let that Hun Miesheng run away."

Gu Yuan simply told them the situation.

One of the elders exclaimed: "What, doesn't that mean the ancient jade of the Xiao Clan fell into the hands of the Soul Clan?"

Gu Yuan: "That's right, so I called everyone here to discuss this matter with everyone."

Five-star Dou Saint Gu Xuan said angrily: "Patriarch, that Soul Clan is ambitious, and now it is openly violating the oath and snatching the ancient jade of the Xiao family, this matter absolutely cannot just be let go."

Gu Yuan: "Then what do the elders think we should do?"

"Patriarch, the Soul Clan openly violates the oath, why don't we take this opportunity to unite with the other five clans to crusade against the Soul Clan!"

Gu Yuan said helplessly: "I would also like to destroy the Soul Clan, I'm just afraid that the other five clans will not put in effort."

The relationship between the current ancient families is very complicated; the Gu Clan and the Soul Clan, the two families with nine-star Dou Saints, both want to destroy each other to collect all eight ancient jades.

So Gu Yuan also hopes to form an alliance to destroy the Soul Clan.

As long as the Soul Clan is destroyed, the Gu Clan will rest well, and basically they can attack the other clans one by one to collect the ancient jade and open the cave mansion.

And the patriarchs of the Lei and Yan clans are both in the late stage of the eight-star Dou Saint; the two clans are very good allies, and these two clans basically choose to hug together, and the two clans hugging together can barely fight the Gu Clan.

Not to mention the Yao, Ling, and Shi clans; the Yao Clan is a little better, the patriarch Yao Dan's strength reached the seven-star Dou Saint, the patriarchs of the Shi and Ling clans only have the strength of a six-star Dou Saint, and they have no room to resist in front of a nine-star Dou Saint.

These ancient families are not stupid, and they also know that if the Soul Clan is destroyed, no one can check and balance Gu Yuan, so for the sake of stability, they will likely not agree to the alliance.

Looking at you Soul and Gu clans fighting, isn't it fragrant? Why meddle?

Even if they agree to the alliance, they will certainly not put in their full strength.

Hearing Gu Yuan's words, the other elders also fell silent.

Other families don't put in effort, they don't dare to attack the Soul Clan either!

Gu Yuan: "Since that's the case, everyone go back and think about it, and we will discuss it together after thinking about it."

Seeing these elders silent, Gu Yuan also knew that this matter of the Soul Clan snatching the ancient jade could only be left at that.

Soul Realm.

At this time, the embarrassed Hun Miesheng returned to the Soul Realm; he did not adjust his state for the first time, but went directly to find Soul Tiandi to report the news.

Inside the Soul Clan main hall.

A man wearing a gray-white robe, about thirty years old, with a handsome face, sat in the first seat; from the appearance, this person is undoubtedly elegant.

With such an image, it is difficult to connect him with the patriarch of the most weird Soul Clan.

That's right, this person is the Soul Clan patriarch Soul Tiandi.

Unlike Gu Yuan's indecisiveness, Soul Tiandi is ruthless and unscrupulous in doing things.

So in the Soul Clan, Soul Tiandi can be said to be the one who says one thing and does another.

And in front of Soul Tiandi, Hun Miesheng is kneeling on the ground.

Seeing Hun Miesheng's embarrassed appearance, Soul Tiandi slowly said: "Hun Miesheng, I asked you to collect souls in Zhongzhou, how did you get yourself into this state."

"Patriarch, the subordinate received an order from his subordinate a few days ago, saying that he captured the Xiao Clan survivor Xiao Yan in the Northwest Continent, and then I went personally, wanting to take the ancient jade back, who would have thought that Xiao Yan was already dead, and the ancient jade was not on Xiao Yan, I suspect that this Protector who captured Xiao Yan hid the ancient jade, but that Protector's mouth was too hard, the subordinate hadn't interrogated it yet, and two four-star Dou Saints of the Gu Clan came to the Soul Hall, I knew I was not an opponent, so I brought this Protector and ran back."

Knowing that his patriarch didn't like to be long-winded, Hun Miesheng told the story exactly as it happened.

"Oh?"

Soul Tiandi's exceptionally bright eyes looked at Yin Shan, as if he could see through people's hearts.

Making Yin Shan below feel cold.

Yin Shan hurriedly explained: "Patriarch... Patriarch, I really didn't hide the ancient jade, that Xiao Yan was indeed picked up by me outside the Soul Hall, and when I picked him up, he was already dead."

After looking for a while, Soul Tiandi slowly said: "He doesn't need to lie, it shouldn't be him who hid the ancient jade."

Hun Miesheng: "But Patriarch, if the ancient jade is not on Xiao Yan, why would the Gu Clan people come to snatch it."

Soul Tiandi stared at Yin Shan and said: "When you picked up Xiao Yan, was there anything special on Xiao Yan?"

"Special? By the way, Patriarch, there was a child flame of the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame beside Xiao Yan."

Yin Shan suddenly thought of this and hurriedly said it.

Soul Tiandi asked suspiciously: "Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame child flame?"

Soul Tiandi thought to himself, isn't the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame the inheritance Exotic Fire of the Gu Clan, how could it be beside Xiao Yan.

Connect this with the Gu Clan powerhouses coming to snatch the ancient jade.

Immediately, Soul Tiandi's brain skipped a beat; could it be that Gu Yuan killed Xiao Yan, threw the corpse to the Soul Hall, and wanted to frame my Soul Clan? And the ancient jade is actually in Gu Yuan's hands?

If this is really the case, what Soul Tiandi can't figure out is, why put the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame child flame beside Xiao Yan? Isn't this exposing the Gu Clan?

Hun Miesheng saw his patriarch like this and couldn't help but say: "Patriarch...?"

Soul Tiandi: "You take him down first, let me think about it carefully."

Ps: Brain-burning, not only Soul Tiandi is brain-burning, the author is also brain-burning!
