C695

The plaza outside the Fire Cloud Hall was filled with the elite disciples of the Fire Cloud Pavilion, all of whom were at least in the late stage of the Earth Spirit Realm. With a glance, he could see that there were thousands of people, other than some disciples that were sent to the nearby planets, the rest of the planets' disciples had all come. They had only come with one goal in mind, and that was to find out how their Clan Chief, Huo Li, had died.

When the news of Huo Li's death was announced, the entire clan was in chaos. Everyone wanted to find him and ask him about it. But Huo Feiyang refused to see them, and locked himself up in his cave, telling everyone that after his two uncles came over, he would talk about the situation at that time. The two uncles that Huo Feiyang mentioned were the two Sky Light Stage Rankers, Huo Yun and Huo Hai.

When Huo Li was killed, the two were still at the front lines commanding the battle. When they heard the news of Huo Li's death, they were stunned, unable to believe it. This was because Huo Li was on Floating Cloud Star and the surrounding planets were all disciples of the Fire Cloud Pavilion. Putting aside how the other party hid on the planet, even if they could enter, with Huo Li's Great Perfection of Late Sky Light Stage realm and the Archaic Dharma treasure's astonishing bow, the other party wouldn't be able to kill him.

However, this matter was of utmost importance. If it was a fake, at most, he would have made the trip here for nothing. If this matter was not false, it would affect the position of the clan head. Both of them were Sky Light Stage Rankers, and other than Huo Li, their cultivation were the highest in the clan. Not only that, the two of them were blood-related brothers, so it didn't matter who became Patriarch. The only thing was that they couldn't let Huo Feiyang become the new Patriarch.

Don't underestimate Huo Feiyang as a direct descendant, the two of them had never placed him in their eyes. When they came here, they met first and discussed how to deal with Huo Feiyang first. They even thought of an even more vicious method, which was to frame Huo Feiyang as having killed his father. In any case, the two of them were both Sky Light Stage cultivators, they could just die with no proof, and be certain that Huo Feiyang will kill Huo Li. At most, he would just cripple's cultivation. If Huo Feiyang refused to admit it no matter what, he would just kill him and take back the position of Clan Master.

In the starry sky, two figures quickly flew past. They were Huo Li and Huo Hai who had rushed back.

After the two had finished discussing ways to deal with it, Huo Hai could not help but ask, "Big Brother, do you think that old fellow Huo Li is really dead?"

He thought for a moment and said, "It's true and false. Huo Li is not a simple person, he had long seen through us as to why we wanted to take the Patriarch's position, but had not said anything. It can be seen that he was secretly wary of us. This time, it's possible that he wanted to use faking death to see how the two of us would react. "

Hearing that, Huo Hai nodded and said, "You're right, back then when I was still Fire Cloud Pavilion's Vice Pavilion Lord, he had sent me out on dangerous missions more than once. He obviously wanted to use someone else to kill me. But, never in his wildest dreams would he imagine that I would obtain a Heaven Illumination Pill and increase my cultivation with you. Clearly, if the two of us join forces, even if he is able to win, he would at least be injured. "

"However, this does not seem to be a lie …" Huo Hai changed the subject and said in a deep voice, "The disciple that sent a sound transmission to me is my son-in-law. He is extremely loyal to me and has never told a lie. That's why I feel that it's very likely that Huo Li was actually killed. It's just that I don't understand, who exactly is it that can kill him in front of so many cultivators! Could it be that the legendary Expert of Divine Will Stage truly exists in this chaotic star cluster? "

Huo Yun shook his head and said with absolute certainty, "There are indeed strong cultivators among the wandering cultivators in the chaotic star fields. The person with the highest cultivation is only the Patriarch Tantai on Cang Lan Star, and his cultivation is only at the Great Perfection of Late Sky Light Stage realm." As he spoke till here, he paused for a while and then continued, "The rest of the cultivators, are more or less the same as us; they only have the cultivation of Mid Sky Light Stage. Amongst these people, no matter which one of them goes up, it is impossible to kill Huo Li. "

Fire Sea frowned and said: "Big Brother, do you think that it is possible for Patriarch Tantai to secretly hide on a planet and kill that old fellow Huo Li?"

"That's impossible." "Although Patriarch Tantai is powerful, his cultivation is comparable to Huo Li's. Even if he were to secretly make a move, the chances of him killing Huo Li in one blow is practically zero. Other than that, Huo Li had so many cultivators by his side. If they really were to fight, it would be impossible for them not to alarm the people around them. The messenger said that after Huo Li was assassinated, he only saw the corpse but not the killer. What was even more laughable was that after that person killed Huo Li, he even buried his body. "I really can't think of anyone who would do such a thing."

The sea of fire could not understand either, and he sighed. Just as he was about to speak, an idea flashed through his mind and he hurriedly asked: "Big Brother, do you think it's possible that it's Han Yan? He has always been hiding in the polar ice pond, so is there a possibility that he could lure Huo Li into the icy pond and use the terrain to the advantage to kill Huo Li … "

Not to mention whether or not Han Yan could lure Huo Li into the polar ice pond without anyone being aware of it. Even if he could do it, the difference in cultivation between the two of them would be too great, and it would be impossible for Han Yan to kill Huo Li. Furthermore, even if Han Yan could kill Huo Li, his corpse would not be buried here.

Huo Yun laughed bitterly and waved his hand, "Let's not even think about what exactly happened here. We should just think about how to deal with that brat Huo Feiyang!" As he spoke, he pointed to the planet in front of him. "We're almost there. Before we see the corpse, we must not reveal any thoughts of seizing the position, do you understand? "

The sea of fire nodded and gave him a look of "don't worry". Then, the two of them sped up and flew to the surface of Floating Cloud Star.

As the two entered the planet, they scanned the area with their divine sense and found what was happening in front of the hall. With a flash, they landed in front of the crowd. As soon as the two of them landed, a middle-aged man ran over and knelt on the ground. He said with a pained voice, "Sirs, you have finally returned. The junior clan leader has been unwilling to come out and has yet to tell us the cause of his death."

Huo Yun pretended to be grieving as he quickly helped the other party up. "Honeymoon Manager, just what in the world happened …"

"Three days ago, the junior clan leader announced the death of the clan leader and then locked himself in his cave. He said that when the two sirs arrive, we would discuss the future of the clan together …" Huo Meng spoke quickly. The contents of his words were exactly the same as what the two of them had heard. After Huo Meng finished speaking, he said to a disciple behind him, "Quickly go and inform the junior family head that the two sirs have returned."

"Yes sir!" The cultivator walked out of the crowd and quickly ran in the direction of Huo Feiyang's cave.

Huo Yun's brow twitched as he hurriedly asked, "Honeymoon Manager, since the Patriarch was assassinated, did you see the corpse?"

"I saw it." "Patriarch has a bloody hole that's an inch or so long in front of his chest. Clearly, he died in a single blow."

Hearing these words, both Huo Yun and Huo Hai found it hard to believe. They looked at each other before asking, "Since all of you have seen the chief's corpse, did you check if it is the chief's real body …"

Everyone in the plaza was taken aback by those words. Huo Meng furiously said, "Milord, what do you mean by that? Do you think that the chief's corpse is fake, or do you suspect that the chief is not someone from the main clan?"

Huo Yun quickly waved his hand and explained, "Brother Huo Meng, you misunderstood me. I was worried that someone would use a despicable method to kill the Patriarch. "Afraid of leaving behind any evidence, he forged a corpse …"

"Are you saying that he killed the Patriarch? That's unlikely! " Huo Meng finally understood the meaning behind his words. On the other hand, it was not difficult for him to guess the identity of the person Huo Meng was referring to.

"Is there anything impossible these days?" Huo Hai coldly snorted and said angrily, "For the sake of power, I am definitely capable of murdering my father and brothers."

As long as there was no problem with his brain, he would be able to understand what the words meant.

Furthermore, the Patriarch's death was not a coincidence, but Huo Feiyang's assassination.

For a moment, the crowd was furious. No one knew who shouted first, "Take revenge for the clan leader …" Then, all of the cultivators raised their fists and shouted, "Revenge for the patriarch! Kill the murderer! Revenge for the patriarch! Kill the murderer!"1

Over a thousand cultivators shouted in unison. Their voices were so loud that everyone within a hundred miles could hear them clearly.

At this moment, a voice came from not too far away. "I wonder who has the guts to spread such rumors …"

At a fork in the road next to the Fire Cloud Hall, Huo Feiyang walked out. His gaze swept across the crowd as he coldly snorted, "I understand your feelings, and I also know why you are thinking this way. Let's not talk about whether I can kill my father. Even if I have the ability, will I kill him? "He is my father. Killing your father is a great sin, and will be punished by the heavens …"

When everyone heard this, besides the fiery cloud and the fiery ocean, everyone else lowered their heads.

That was because only these three people possessed the qualifications to contend for the position of Clan Chief. If they were to say something wrong or stood in the wrong camp, they would likely be killed. Everyone chose to protect themselves, lowering their heads and not expressing their opinions. However, there was one exception, and that was the old steward of the Flaming Cloud Family, Huo Meng.

The master-servant relationship between Huo Meng and Huo Li was very deep. He was anxious to know the reason behind Huo Li's death so he quickly raised his head and cupped his fists. He paused for a moment before continuing, "Now that the two sirs have returned, let's be straightforward!"

Huo Yun took a step forward, stared at Huo Feiyang, and asked solemnly: "Feiyang, I just want to know how the Patriarch died. What did he say before he died?"

Huo Feiyang let out a sigh, his eyes were filled with pain, and he choked on his sobs: "Father, that day after he killed Han Yan, he was trying to find the location of the storage bag …" After he recounted the situation at that time, he painfully said, "At midnight, my soul trembled because my father and I were related by blood. I immediately thought that my father might have been killed by someone and hurriedly ran over. "However, it's still too late. Father's primordial spirit has already reached the edge of being destroyed. Before he died, he said that he would pass on the position to me …"

There was nothing wrong with his words, but there was too much strangeness in them. Some people noticed what the problem was.

Huo Hai coldly snorted and said, "For that person to be able to assassinate the chief, his cultivation must be astonishingly high. Even if the tribe leader's primordial spirit hasn't been completely destroyed after you left, why did that person let you go? "

These words were extremely forceful. If one didn't know the truth, they wouldn't be able to answer at all.

Huo Feiyang had already thought of a plan a long time ago, and said: "When that person kills my father, they use their primordial spirit to fight. "After killing father, that person's soul was extremely weak. If he were to make a move, not only would he not be able to kill me, but he would also be unable to escape." At this point, he changed the subject and harshly said, "Two uncles, what do you mean by asking? Do you want to seize the position by force?"

At this moment, no one noticed that on a mountain a hundred miles away, Han Yan was looking at everything on the plaza.

After Han Yan heard what Huo Feiyang had said, his mouth revealed a satisfied smile.
