As soon as the old man spoke, everyone looked at him, and the crowd silently moved out of the way.
It wasn't until the old man came to the man that I could see his face clearly.
That man was one of the elders we had met at the palace gate earlier.
No wonder, just now I found out that there was one less elder behind the patriarch, and it turned out that this person had been hiding in the crowd.
He stood up and spoke at this time, obviously the back hand arranged by the patriarch.
The Qingqiu patriarch probably expected that the situation would be at a stalemate when it was announced to the public today, so he arranged for the old man to stand up as a spectator and speak fairly.
However, this so-called fair talk is only for the people.
As for whether it is really fair, only both of us will know.
When the old man arrived, the patriarch took the lead in saluting the great elder, and the clansmen also saluted him.
Although the High Priest and Yaoyao knew that the Great Elder was the patriarch's person, they also arched their hands towards him.
Looking at the appearance of everyone, it was obvious that this great elder had a very high status among the Qingqiu clan.
The High Priest seemed to notice the strangeness on my face, and opened his mouth to explain, "This Great Elder has lived for thousands of years, and his strength is only the Seal Heavenly Master's Consummation, but he has a very high rank among the Qingqiu clan, even if I count him, he is only his grandchild, plus he has always acted fairly, everyone is very convinced of him." ” The scene in front of him is indeed as the high priest said, but this great elder is in collusion with the Qingqiu patriarch at this time, and the so-called justice is naturally just in vain.
The corners of my mouth were slightly raised, and I was not in a hurry to speak, and I wanted to see what the Great Elder was going to say.
After the Great Elder returned the salute, he turned to everyone and said, "The argument between the patriarch and the sacrifice sounds reasonable, and everyone can't tell the right from the wrong, but if it goes on like this, it will not be a long-term solution after all.
The old man took the liberty to think of a way, everyone can't fight right or wrong, why not use the rules of the human race outside, come to the ring to compete, and his subordinates will divide the winners and losers.
I don't know what you think?
” With that, he turned to look at us, with a kind smile on his face, but the corners of his mouth were not disguised by a hint of ridicule.
It seems that this is the wishful thinking of the Qingqiu patriarch.
Although Yaoyao's bloodline talent is high, her cultivation at this time is still inferior to the Qingqiu Patriarch, not to mention that the Qingqiu Patriarch has also cultivated the secret method of the High Priest's lineage, and his strength is more than one step better than Yaoyao.
Moreover, life and death in the ring are fateful, and no one is allowed to interfere, which eliminates the possibility of sacrificing evil spirits to participate in the war.
The Great Elder proposed this seemingly fair solution, but in fact, it was clear that he wanted to put Yaoyao to death.
Seeing that everyone was about to say yes, I quickly stood up, shook my head and said, "The difference in strength between Yaoyao and the patriarch is too great, and the method of martial arts competition in the ring has always been a means used by the human race to eradicate dissidents, and it is not suitable for my demon clan."
Please ask the Great Elder to think of another way. ” When the Great Elder saw my refusal, he was not much surprised, but turned his head, arched his hand at me, and said with a smile, "The Divine Envoy is wrong with what the Lord said, since the High Priest claims that Yaoyao is the person appointed by the Fox King, there must be something beyond the reach of ordinary people.
At present, there is indeed a slight gap between her cultivation and the patriarch, but the strength cannot be distinguished only by cultivation.
Just like you, on the surface, it seems that only the Seal Heavenly Master cultivates, but in terms of strength, I am afraid that it will never lose to the ordinary Yang God Heavenly Master.
Therefore, this method of competition in the ring is the fairest choice. ” I wasn't surprised at all when he argued like this, but listening to him tell me about my true strength made my brows furrow slightly.
Could it be that this Qingqiu patriarch specially investigated me?
Listening to the words of the Great Elder, the people of the Qingqiu Clan below also started to talk about it, and they should have realized that if this matter continues to stalemate, it will definitely have a significant impact on the Qingqiu Country.
And the method in the mouth of the Great Elder can indeed solve the problem quickly, and on the surface, it does seem to be relatively fair.
As a result, the forces of the two sides, which were still arguing just now, have begun to exchange words at this time.
Things have gone in the direction the patriarch had predicted.
Seeing that the situation was a little out of our control, the high priest whispered to the side what I was going to do now.
I was also a little hesitant at this time, Yaoyao is naturally not the opponent of the Qingqiu Patriarch, but if we turn our faces directly, even if the Qingqiu Patriarch is suppressed, I am afraid that Yaoyao will be difficult to get along with the Qingqiu Clan in the future.
While thinking about it, the Great Elder Qingqiu had already walked to the stairs and said to the people below, "Since you all have no objections, then this matter is decided.
The old man was brave enough to be confident, and the matter was handed over to the old man to preside, how about competing here and there three days later?
. ” The Qingqiu patriarch naturally had no objections, and hurriedly said yes.
After her side was confirmed, the eyes of all the Qingqiu people converged on Yaoyao and the high priest.
At this time, the high priest was already looking at me anxiously, waiting for my final decision, I hesitated for a moment, and finally decided that I could not let Yaoyao isolate herself from the Qingqiu people, so I nodded to the high priest.
After getting my decision, the high priest was stunned for a moment, and seemed to be a little puzzled, but under the attention of everyone, he didn't ask again, turned his head hesitantly, and accepted the proposal of the great elder on behalf of Yaoyao.
After agreeing on this matter, we don't need to stay here longer, and after saying goodbye to the Qingqiu patriarch, we will leave the Fox King's Palace and go back to the high priest's residence again.
Along the way, Yaoyao was silent, and it was not difficult to see that she was also very worried at this time.
It's just that she promised me that I would take care of the matter, so she didn't mention it to me.
But the high priest who followed behind him kept muttering quietly, and after walking a few steps, he lamented and was full of pessimism.
When I got back to my lodgings, he immediately closed the door and asked me why I had agreed to the fight, and if I had a plan to deal with it.
I really don't wonder him is so anxious, Yaoyao's situation, the high priest and I are very clear.

She has the mid-stage cultivation of the Yang God, and her strength cannot be considered weak, but the problem is that she is still young, and although she has cultivation, she does not have any actual combat experience.
If she really wants to fight against others, it is really hard to say how much her strength can be exerted.
And the Qingqiu patriarch is an old fox who has lived for hundreds of years, and he has extremely rich combat experience, and his cultivation is above Yaoyao, and in terms of combat effectiveness, the two are not at the same level at all.
The high priest was anxious, but I was calm in my heart, and I didn't answer his words, but turned my head and asked Yaoyao if she had practiced any special exercises.
After all, Yaoyao is the Tu Shan clan, and she has the true blood of the fox king, so maybe she is extraordinary.
It would be great if she could tap into her own strength.
But soon, Yaoyao's words dispelled this idea, and she told me that the techniques she practiced were all taught by her mother.
It is no different from the ordinary people of the Qingqiu tribe.
She has no way here, I thought about it, there are many special exercises recorded in the "Book of the Dead", but there is no method suitable for the demon clan to practice.
In addition, the Demon Refining Pot also helped Yaoyao quickly improve her cultivation in a short period of time, but this time the fat man didn't come, and the Demon Refining Pot naturally couldn't be used.
As I pondered, my eyes swept to the high priest who was looking down and contemplating on the other side, and I couldn't help but think of the secret method he had said earlier.
Now that the secret method has been secretly learned by the patriarch, this rule has been broken.
If you give Yaoyao a practice, with her talent, maybe there will be a lot of progress within three days.
The high priest naturally did not refuse, and immediately nodded in agreement.
Although this secret method is a lineage exclusive to the high priest, but at this time, the situation is special, and he can't care about it.
With this secret method, I have a little confidence in my heart, but it is not enough to completely rest assured, Yaoyao's actual combat experience is still blank.
After much thought, I entrusted this matter to the sacrifice of the evil spirits.
Among the three of us, only his strength can completely suppress Yaoyao.
Only in the case of being at an absolute disadvantage can Yaoyao's potential be stimulated, which I deeply understand.
Sacrifice to the evil spirits slightly bowed, and should do this.
Seeing that things have some eyebrows, I don't delay any longer, and plan to let Yaoyao and the sacrificial evil spirits immediately set off to find a remote location to train, and as for the cultivation of secret methods, I will stay at night to practice.
After listening to my arrangement, everyone had no objection.
The sacrificial evil spirits and I were not familiar with the terrain of Qingqiu Country, so the high priest led the way to a very empty place that few people visited.
In order to prevent the clansmen from being disturbed by the sound of the fight between the sacrificial evil spirits and Yaoyao, and to prevent the patriarch from sending people to keep an eye on them, I signaled for the sacrificial evil spirits to lay a barrier around them to isolate everything here.
He's so strong that it's easy to do.
Before starting, I took out the armor removal sword from Xiang Liu's bag and handed it to Yaoyao.
The reason why Fang Cai agreed to the proposal of the martial arts competition was that the idea in my heart was to let Yaoyao use the armor removal sword and use the power of the armor removal sword to defeat the Qingqiu patriarch.
Originally, I even thought about giving her the Xuanyuan Sword, after all, the Xuanyuan Sword is more powerful.
Later, after thinking about it, the Xuanyuan Sword was the magic weapon of the Yellow Emperor.
The battle in ancient times was caused by the intensification of contradictions between the two races.
Although the Qingqiu tribe did not participate in that war, there is no guarantee that this incident has not been recorded.
If I take out the Xuanyuan Sword, it will inevitably make the High Priest suspicious.
Of course, I can also make up excuses to fool him.
But when it came time to compete, if the patriarch recognized the Xuanyuan Sword, it was really hard to say what would happen at that time.
After careful consideration, I still ruled out the fear of careful thinking, and I still ruled out the Xuanyuan Sword.
Speaking of Yaoyao's side, at the beginning, she was still a little incompetent with the armor removal sword, and with the gap in strength, she has been suppressed by the sacrificial evil spirits.
Fortunately, she is very talented, and she has the true blood of the fox king in her body, so she quickly adapted to the situation, from blindly defending, to occasionally being able to fight back.
Although it didn't take all the strength to sacrifice the evil spirit, I estimated that with the strength he used at this time, I'm afraid it wouldn't be too long for me to go up.
In other words, Yaoyao's strength at this time is not inferior to me.
The high priest on the side, looking at Yaoyao in the battle, was also full of relief.
It is estimated that at this time, he has strengthened the idea in his heart, Yaoyao must be the one who leads the Qingqiu clan back to the peak.
For three days, we didn't go out, Yaoyao fought with the sacrificial evil spirits during the day, accumulated combat experience, and practiced the secret method with the high priest at night.
In just a few days, her strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and her actual combat ability is quite mature.
Soon, the three-day appointment arrived.
I asked the sacrificial evil spirits to remove the barrier and led everyone to the Fox King's Palace.
