Chapter 1971: The Accident Begins
The information flooded the First Elder's brain.
But that doesn't stop her from getting down to business.
directly told Grandpa Fei's guess to the patriarch.
The patriarch only expressed 'general' attention to this, after all, there are some things that the first elder would not say.
It's too big and too big.
"It's just a kid who can't cultivate, I can strengthen my defense, as for letting Amon go out and apologize...... Don't mention it, don't you know what kind of temperament he is? โ
The patriarch merely coped with the situation.
But even if it was to deal with it, it was just an order, but fortunately, the subordinates were very dedicated.
said that it was to strengthen the guards, and it really doubled the guards, and supervised the surroundings of Phoenix Island throughout the day.
All of a sudden, the entire Phoenix Island became tense.
When he heard the news, even the patriarch couldn't laugh or cry, but he didn't withdraw his order.
After all, the First Elder had personally talked to him about this matter, and even if he gave her a face, he had to try his best to pretend to be working hard.
Everything seems to be so peaceful.
But......
The very next day, things changed that no one expected.
Dead!
At the edge of Phoenix Island, three young people who had traveled and experienced only an hour after leaving the island, they were found dead in front of the city gate of Phoenix Island, so to speak, in front of those guards, in a flame...... Burned to ashes.
This time, everyone was shocked.
After all, this kind of thing hasn't happened for too many years, although the relationship between the Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Clan is very poor, but the relationship with other Divine Beast Clans is surprisingly good, plus someone deliberately maintains the relative stability of the Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Clan, so there are really few dead people, and everything seems so peaceful.
And the calmer it is, the more shocking it is that something like this suddenly happens.
The parents of the three young people went directly to the patriarch and cried, demanding that she must find the murderer immediately and punish her severely.
And the patriarch for this requirement...... It's really a bit speechless.
After all, she didn't know who did it or what was going on.
Yes, what exactly is going on?
It's simply ...... It's incredible.
Every junior who leaves Phoenix Island must carry a communication tool that can contact Phoenix Island as soon as possible, although there are good and bad, but no matter what, it will also send back a little information after something happens, right?

Besides, although it was different from her original intention, those guards had been strengthened after all, and although these guards would not monitor the entire Phoenix Island, at least ...... It's impossible not to see someone who suddenly came to the city gate, and even transported three corpses and burned them.
Are the guards deaf and blind?
It took a lot of effort for the patriarch to persuade the parents of the three young men to go back.
A race, in which the kinship is really complicated, although only three people died, the number of people who came to petition the patriarch has exceeded hundreds.
They are all kinds of relatives, and they are all big families.
The Phoenix Patriarch sighed.
remembered what the Colorful Divine Phoenix had told him when he came back before, so he immediately sent someone to call her.
"I remember when you came back from the wolf clan, you said that there was a kid there, and with his own mouth, he resolved the war between the two clans, right?"
The Colorful Divine Phoenix also heard about the death of the three young people, and asked with concern, "Does the patriarch want me to bring that person here? to alleviate the current situation of our Phoenix Clan......?" I'm afraid it's a little difficult, after all, I heard that the person has left there after the wolf clan and the jade rabbit clan have stabilized, and I don't know the current location. โ
"No," said the patriarch, "I didn't ask you to go to him for help, but...... The First Elder came to me about this before, and said it was...... It seems that if Amun offends someone, the other party will take revenge, and I suspect that the death of three of our people has something to do with this revenge. โ
"So...... Or let me go to that guy?"
"No!" the patriarch said, "The First Elder suspects that the person who took revenge is the amazing boy you mentioned!"
"What?!" This time the Colorful Divine Phoenix was shocked, remembering Lu Yu's arrogance in inviting them to dinner at that time, he frowned and said: "I have a relationship with him, but I also think that this kid is not a murderous person, no matter what the contradictions, he seems to like to put things on the table and say, how can he not ...... Is it such a killing for no reason? Is it that the First Elder is thinking too much?"
The patriarch sighed and said, "I hope so, too...... But what if, after all, you've only met him once, and you can't understand these two words. Do you have any more information about that kid?"
The Colorful Divine Phoenix said: "I have already told you what happened, and there is obviously a black phoenix next to that kid, I also went to observe it at the time, and found that the phoenix is a little different from the characteristics of our phoenix clan, so I didn't investigate this matter carefully, but after all, it is also a phoenix." That kid has a good relationship with that phoenix, and it won't kill our phoenix clan in comparison. โ
"It stands to reason that this is also the case......
The patriarch sighed and said with some distress: "Forget it, let's strengthen our defenses for the time being, at least we have to avoid such a thing from happening again, as for the cause of their death, we still need to investigate more carefully." โ
The patriarch really ordered to strengthen the defense again, because the previous 'reinforcement' was obviously not very effective.
But before her order could be heard, a new message appeared.
"What?!"
After listening to the report, the patriarch stood up sharply and slammed his fist on the table, and a table that was unusually strong but did not know what wood was shattered directly into powder under her heavy hammer.
"Seventeen people died......? How is it possible?!How is it an assassination?!!
"This ...... It doesn't seem to be ......."
The person who reported said with a bitter face: "It should be...... It should have been an accident. โ
"Accident?"
"Yes, Patriarch Qiyu, isn't there a Purification Array on our island?"
"Well," the patriarch said, "Hey, our people have also been spoiled over the years, and our ancestors have created this great foundation by eating and sleeping in the open air, but now, everyone can't even drink normal water, they have to drink that kind of rootless water, and they have to go through the essence and cover the spirit to make such a big array, do they know how many resources are wasted on it every year?!...... What's the matter? What does that Purification Array have to do with this dead man?"
The subordinate said: "It's the big array, it was originally fine, but just now, it should be the time for the energy maintenance of the big array, that is, to replace some of the aging parts and formation diagrams, this kind of thing is originally familiar to the people who defend the formation, I am afraid that it can be completed with their eyes closed, but today ...... One of them seems to be defending the ...... It seems that he drank a few more glasses, and accidentally touched the core of the big array when he was depicting the array plate, and a few simple strokes changed the nature of the formation, and the energy he replaced seemed to be a little problematic, causing the big array to be unstable. Under the combination of the two, the purification array ...... Great Array ...... The seventeen defenders who were stationed around were affected...... I really didn't expect the power of that formation to erupt to be so great! Seventeen people were not spared, and they were all ...... ...... all."
"Rubbish!" the patriarch was furious and roared, "It was originally an eventful season, and they still made such a thing happen at this juncture?!"
