Chapter 279: Mistaken for a murderer

Although the power of this fireball is huge, it still can't cause much damage to Chu Xiao, Chu Xiao is quickly releasing his clone, and these fireballs can only kill part of it instantly.

Soon Chu Xiao crossed the attack range, and there was a big mountain in front of him, and there was a cave under the cliff, just when Chu Xiao was about to walk in, suddenly a black shadow flashed past Chu Xiao!

And the speed was very fast, Chu Xiao planned to chase after him, but when he came back to his senses, the black shadow was already gone, so Chu Xiao had to pack up his mood and continue to walk towards the cave!

But when Chu Xiao walked in, he didn't find any trace of the patriarch, which made him very puzzled, obviously those elders personally admitted that the patriarch was here, could it be that the elders outside were also lying to him!

Chu Xiao felt that it was unlikely, and then began to search every corner of the cave, and finally found a secret compartment in an inconspicuous place, which should be a secret room or something.

Then Chu Xiao began to look for the mechanism to open the secret room, and when he opened the door of the secret room, he saw an old man lying on a stone slab, with his back to Chu Xiao!

This person has gray hair, obviously he is old, and he is still a little hunchbacked, he was originally quite tall, but now he has become a lot shorter, Chu Xiao slowly walked into the secret room!

"Are you the patriarch?" Chu Xiao greeted the old man very politely, but this person didn't speak, and was still lying there motionless!

"Are you the patriarch?" Chu Xiao asked here, but found that this person was still motionless, Chu Xiao felt that something was wrong, and began to walk towards this old man!

When he walked in front of him, Chu Xiao patted the old man, but no matter how Chu Xiao shouted and was afraid of beating him, he was still lying there, Chu Xiao then turned the old man over!

Finding that this patriarch's face was pale, and his lips were still black, which was obviously a sign of poisoning, which made Chu Xiao take aback, and immediately thought of the black shadow just now!

It is estimated that it was his hand on the patriarch, and then Chu Xiao helped the old man up and gave him some spiritual power, which made him slowly open his eyes and show some signs of soberness!

"You, who are you!" This patriarch saw that Chu Xiao in front of him was very vigilant, although he was more sober, he was still weak.

"Don't worry, I'm not a bad person, I'm Chu Xiao I believe that a few elders have already greeted you, who poisoned you?"

Hearing Chu Xiao report to himself, the old man of the family let down his guard, because several elders had said that Chu Xiao was going to find him, and the patriarch had always wanted to see Chu Xiao's ability.

But I didn't expect that what was waiting was not Chu Xiao, but another person who was plotting against him, and he was also poisonous, if it wasn't for Chu Xiao coming here, it is estimated that the patriarch would be dead now!

"I'm their patriarch Daniel, thank you for saving me!" The patriarch also expressed his gratitude to Chu Xiao, but Chu Xiao knew that this was only a temporary awakening of the patriarch, and the toxins in his body had not been cleaned up, and his life was still in danger!

"Hello Patriarch Daniel, do you know who poisoned you? I just saw a dark shadow outside, and it was moving fast and wanted to chase but couldn't! ”

Chu Xiao explained to Daniel everything he saw outside the cave, and it must have been the poison under the black shadow, otherwise how could it be so coincidental!

"I, I don't know, there are actually a lot of ill-intentioned people in our clan, and they have long been thinking about my position as the patriarch, so I chose to come here to retreat in order to prevent them from sneaking up!"

After listening to the patriarch's words, Chu Xiao realized that their clan was not as harmonious as they saw, and someone had long wanted to kill the patriarch.

But Chu Xiao came over now just to give this person a chance, if the patriarch died, they could blame Chu Xiao, after all, only Chu Xiao had been here!

Chu Xiao felt that this person was very scheming, and he was ruthless, and sure enough, it didn't take long for someone to come outside, and Chu Xiao looked back and saw that it was three elders!

"Patriarch, what's wrong with you, Patriarch, did he harm you? We kindly let you come to see the patriarch, how can you be so ruthless, I will fight with you! ”

"I'm going to kill you too!" After saying that, the second elder and the third elder began to rush towards Chu Xiao, and the eldest elder wanted to stop them and ask about the situation, but it was too late, and the two of them had already rushed towards Chu Xiao!

Sure enough, as Chu Xiao expected, it is estimated that the person who poisoned him was among these three people, so Chu Xiao did not plan to attack the two of them, wanting to find out who poisoned them!

Therefore, the attack on the two elders was only dodged, and there was no intention of fighting them, but the two elders' moves were deadly, and Chu Xiao felt that if they were not the ones who poisoned them, they would be too angry!

"Alright, stop!" The Great Elder hurriedly shouted to stop, and the patriarch at this time was already unconscious, and the two elders hurriedly followed the Great Elder to the patriarch's side, and shouted to the patriarch!

"Boy, we won't let you go, it turns out that you want to see our patriarch just to harm him, who sent you, what is the purpose of coming here!"

The three elders stared at Chu Xiao angrily, believing that Chu Xiao was the murderer, but Chu Xiao felt that this was normal, he was the only one here, as long as a person saw this situation, he would think that it was Chu Xiao!

"I know you won't believe what I say, but the murderer really isn't me!" Chu Xiao began to explain the previous matter, and the Great Elder's expression was solemn, not knowing what to do!

"Boy, if you say it's not you, it's not you, the formation here has a powerful attack, and outsiders can't get in at all, but you came in unscathed, if it weren't for you, who else would it be!"

The Great Elder felt that what the Third Elder said was not unreasonable, not to mention that the Second Elder also agreed with the Third Elder's statement, this matter was indeed not so simple!

"It means that this poisoned person is here, and he is still very familiar with the outside formation, so he can come and go freely from here!"

Hearing Chu Xiao's words, it was obvious that the Great Elder didn't want to believe it, although he had long known about the discord within the clan, but he hadn't thought that someone would dare to murder the patriarch!

"Boy, this is just your one-sided words, I think it's you!" The Third Elder immediately decided that it was Chu Xiao at this time, and although the Second Elder didn't say anything, he had been supporting the Third Elder's opinion!

"Since you don't believe what I said, let's wait for the patriarch to wake up and say it, when the time comes, it will be up to him to decide whether I am a good person or not, and it will be in vain to explain to you now!"

After saying that, Chu Xiao came to the patriarch's side, and wanted to pour spiritual power into his body to make him wake up, but this time, no matter what method Chu Xiao used, the patriarch still showed no sign of waking up, which made Chu Xiao feel very curious!
