"Young Master, don't be angry. I really don't know about this matter, but I will definitely get to the bottom of it and give you and my colleagues in the martial arts community an explanation!"
The great elder no longer had the toughness he had just now, and at this moment he was extremely frightened.
Discovering a bomb on such an occasion and day is no joke. Who knows, the entire Xiao family may fall because of it.
"Very good, then I'll wait for your explanation!"
The playboy stopped talking and sat on the chair to wait for the result.
The great elder wiped the sweat from his forehead and ordered with a cold face: "Come here, find the person responsible for today's security and the construction of the arena!"
"yes!"
The Xiao family guards went forward as ordered and came back with two people after a while.
They were a muscular man in his thirties and an old man in his sixties.
The strong man is Xiao Shan, the Xiao family's guard captain, and the old man is Xiao Hua, the Xiao family's chief steward.
"Great Elder!"
The two people came forward, their faces full of guilt and fear. Obviously they knew that they had made a big mistake today.
However, the Great Elder did not punish them immediately. Instead, he asked them: "Who is in charge of supervising the construction of this arena? Why is there such a fatal flaw in our Xiao family's territory?"
"Great Elder, the person in charge of setting up the arena is Butler Xiao. I didn't participate at all!"
Upon hearing the great elder's question, Xiao Shan quickly opened his mouth to remove himself.
The Great Elder turned to look at Xiao Hua. Xiao Hua shook his body and said bravely: "Great Elder, according to the division of labor, I am indeed responsible for building this arena. However, when the arena was being built, the Second Elder came over and said that he would be responsible for it personally. , so I don’t know what’s going on!”
"What did you say?!"
Hearing this, the first elder was full of surprise. He subconsciously looked at the second elder sitting next to him.
The second elder calmly stood up from his chair, showed an evil smile and said, "Yes, I did it!"
"what's the situation?!"
"The second elder of the Xiao family actually planted a bomb in his own house. Is he crazy?"
"It's really confusing. Could it be that the second elder wants to usurp the throne? He shouldn't have planted a bomb in the ring. If he wanted to harm the elder, he should have planted a bomb in the judges' table!"
Hearing that the second elder himself admitted the fact, the people below were also full of question marks.
The First Elder frowned even more. He knew very well what the Second Elder was like. He was definitely not the ambitious type, so he should never do such a thing.
"Second brother, why on earth?!"
The first elder looked at the second elder sadly and asked.
He really wanted to know the reason why the second elder did this. If it was really just to make him abdicate, then it would have gone too far!
"Why... there's no reason why, I'm just following orders!"
The smile on the second elder's face became more and more ferocious, as if he was possessed by an evil spirit in a movie.
The great elder also saw something was wrong and continued to ask: "You said you would follow orders, but who gave you the order?"
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the second elder. Everyone wanted to know who was so cruel and wanted to kill everyone present.
What is worrying is that the second elder chose to shut up at this time.
He lowered his head and muttered something in a low voice, but no one could hear clearly what he said.
"Second brother, I said you..."
Just when the great elder lost patience and wanted to continue asking questions, a voice came from the side: "Let me answer for him!"
Uh-huh!
People's eyes followed the sound at the same time, and they saw the swordsman girl Pei Huanshou walking over.
She looked at the second elder who seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit, and said in shock: "If I'm not mistaken, have you joined the Midnight God Cult and become a disciple of the Night Demon?"
"Night Stalker?!"
"What the hell, I've never heard of it!"
"This is also the first time I've heard that this is a newly established martial arts sect!"
"Why is it becoming more and more incomprehensible!"
When people heard Pei Huanshou's words, not only did they not feel puzzled, but they became more confused.
They had never heard of the "Midnight Cult", let alone night demons, but they had often heard of sex demons.
"Shut up!"
"I don't allow you to insult my Lord. He is not a night demon. He is the night god, our supreme god!"
The next second, the originally demented second elder suddenly let out a roar, obviously he was angry.
"Whether it's a god or a demon, you have become one of them, so I must kill you today!"
Pei Huan didn't waste any time talking to the second elder. As he spoke, he pulled out the dark scimitar from behind.
"Girl, please slow down!"
The first elder quickly stopped in front of Pei Huanshou and asked with confusion on his face: "Girl, what is going on? From what you just said, I think the second son has joined some kind of evil cult!"
Although the second elder made a big mistake, the eldest elder is the person in charge of the Xiao family after all, so he still faces his own family.
Now Pei Huan wants to kill the second elder. Of course he will stop him before he understands the situation.
"You are right. This Ziye God Cult advocates the destruction and reconstruction of the world. In addition to believing in night demons, its followers treat other people in the world with indifference. It is definitely a cult. Now the second elder has also been brainwashed by them. You Just let me kill him to prevent others from being harmed by him!"
"So this is the reason why you came to our Xiao family!"
The First Elder suddenly realized that he finally knew why Pei Huanshou took the initiative to come to the door. It turned out that participating in the Xiao family's martial arts competition was a fake, and it was to investigate the second elder, a disciple of the cult, that it was true.
"Yes!"
Pei Huanshou nodded and did not deny: "Our Church of Light has always been responsible for eliminating the demons of the Midnight God Sect. These are what we should do!"
"I understand, but I still can't let you kill the second child. Even if he made a mistake, he is still a member of our Xiao family. From today on, I will educate him well and let him quit this cult, so I still invite the girl If you give me a thin noodle, let him go!"
The Great Elder finally understood the whole story, but he still insisted on saving the Second Elder.
If nothing else, if the second elder is killed by an outsider like Pei Huanshou today, then the Xiao family will lose all face in the future.
"Great Elder, I am not negotiating with you. You may not know very well. Everyone who joins the Midnight God Sect has been brainwashed by them. There is no possibility of turning back. So only by killing him can we avoid future troubles forever!"
Pei Huanshou was also stubborn and refused to give in. This was her mission and it must be completed unconditionally.
