Sovereign of the Heaven - C285

“Jie Long, what’s going on?” Herba Hydrae could not wait and asked, he could not believe that they were all dead.

Jie Wei did not know how to explain, so he looked at Di Chen.

Di Chen explained: “This Temple of Magi is not what you think she is.

He then told them what happened in the Temple of Magi, including the origins of the Temple of Magi and the matter of Hun Wu killing everyone. Only, he had concealed a part of it, such as Wu Song’s matter.

When the people of Witch race heard this, their faces were filled with surprise. They originally thought that the Temple of Magi was left behind by the Sorcerer, but who would have thought that the Temple of Magi was just an ancient sect?

All these years, when Witch race offered sacrifices to the so-called Sorcerer, was it just to help that person raise his strength?

Everyone’s understanding of the Sorcerer had finally improved. None of them could believe that the so-called Sorcerer did not exist, so what was the point in using the Temple of Magi as a place of pilgrimage?

When the crowd heard that Di Chen had killed Hun Wu, they were even more shocked. So many Witch race s had died in his hands, yet he was killed by Di Chen.

“Where’s Yan Hui?” Yan Huai still could not believe that Yan Hui had also died, and asked nervously.

Jie Long became angry the moment she thought about Yan Hui wanting to kill her. She did not actually hide it from him, and said: “I killed Yan Hui.”

Hearing this, everyone was startled again. They had originally thought that Yan Hui was also killed by Hun Wu, but who would have thought that Yan Hui was also killed by Jie Qian?

Di Chen also laughed bitterly. He had purposely concealed the matter with Yan Hui just now, but who knew that Jie Wei would actually say it out loud.

“It’s you,” When Yan Huai heard this, he was instantly enraged, and directly rushed towards Jie Wei: “You actually killed Yan Hui, I’ll kill you.”

Herba Hydrae immediately stood in front of Yan Huai and said in a low voice: “Yan Huai, if you dare injure Jie Wei, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

Yan Huai seemed to still be a little afraid of the Ghost Granny, but he did not immediately make a move. Instead, he whispered, “Herba Hydrae, what is the meaning of this?

Herba Hydrae said calmly: “I heard about it, but I do not believe that Jie Wei would act for no reason. Jie Wei, what do you think is going on?”

Jie Long then told Yan Hui about how he died.

Actually, everyone could also imagine, the biggest competitor Yan Hui wanted to inherit the position of Patriarch was actually Jie Long. Of course, he wanted to get rid of Jie Long, wasn’t that the reason Yan Huai sent Soya and Wen Duo Na in?

“Nonsense, how could Yan Hui kill Yi Shi, this is only one side of your story.”

Yan Huai was naturally unwilling to believe it, and berated: “You must be afraid that Yan Hui will snatch your position, which is why you want to kill Yan Hui.”

The Herba Hydrae said with a sneer: “If Jie Qian said she killed Yan Hui, you would believe him. If she said Yan Hui killed Yi Shi, you would just say it was nonsense.

In fact, Yan Huai clearly knew in his heart that Yan Hui had very possibly really killed Yi Shi, which was why he was forced to kill him.

Everyone looked at each other, they also knew what kind of person Yan Hui was in private.

“I don’t care what the truth is, I only know that Jie Long killed Yan Hui.

Yan Huai also knew that his clansmen all believed in Jie Wei’s words, so he changed his tone and said, “If Yan Hui really kills Yi Shi, I will treat him with the clan’s rules, and definitely will not be biased.”

He spoke with justice, but Yan Hui was already dead, how could he be treated?

Herba Hydrae sneered: “If Yan Hui had not died, would you have said that?”

Yan Huai said seriously: “Of course I will. After all, I am the Acting Clan Master now, and I will treat him with the fairness of the clan rules.”

Then, he looked towards the two elders and said: “Elder Ting, Elder Hong, you heard Jie Long personally admit that she killed Yan Hui. The Witch race rules state that clansmen cannot kill each other, and since she has violated the clan rules, you cannot let her go.”

In fact, she knew that Yan Hui was the one who had attacked first, and Jie Long was also the one who had protected himself. Furthermore, Jie Long was the only one who had walked out, so since she was the Patriarch’s successor, how could she be killed?

However, in the end, Jie Long had violated the clan rules. Not only had he killed Yan Hui, she had also killed Soya and Wen Donna. This was a bit too much, so he didn’t know what to say right now.

Elder Hong did not express her view and the Herba Hydrae was speechless.

“If you say that Jie Wei should be treated according to clan rules, then you’re the first one to be treated?”

Just then, Di Chen suddenly spoke out, and upon hearing that, everyone looked at Di Chen curiously.

Yan Huai did not expect him to still dare to speak at this point of time, he squinted his eyes and said: “Di Chen, what do you mean by this?”

Di Chen said calmly: “Back then you already killed a decent Jie Hua Mu, if you wanted to deal with Jie Wei, wouldn’t you be taking responsibility for your own actions?”

Everyone cried out in alarm when they heard this. Although they didn’t know if this was true or not, it was still a shocking matter.

Yan Huai was startled for a moment. He thought that Jie Long must have said it, but how could he admit to such a thing?

Yan Huai scolded: “Di Chen, you are an outsider. You actually dared to casually slander our Witch race.

Elder Ting also frowned: “Di Chen, you cannot speak carelessly of this.”

Di Chen was not a member of the Witch race, so these words were indeed offensive. Even if Yan Huai killed him now, he would not say anything.

“I am not spouting nonsense. I met Clan Leader Zha Fei earlier, although he is dead, her remnant soul is still in the hall. This is what he said.”

Di Chen said calmly, “I am only repeating what Clan Leader Zha Fei said.”

“Patriarch Zha Fei?” Everyone exclaimed, Clan Leader Zha Fei was the previous Clan Leader of Jie Sang, he had entered the Temple of Magi and never came out. Everyone in the Witch race thought that he was dead, but did he still have her soul?

Yan Huai berated him: “You’re simply spouting nonsense. Clan leader Zha Fei has been missing for dozens of years, but Jie Sang only died a few years ago. How does he know who killed Jie Sang?”

The people of the Witch race had never seen a person’s soul before, so no one was willing to believe that Zha Fei’s soul was still alive. Furthermore, Jie Sang had not died when Zha Fei went missing, so no one was willing to believe these words.

This time, even the Herba Hydrae raised her eyebrows slightly, but she did not say anything.

“What can you hide from Patriarch Zha Fei? Although he is in the Temple of Magi, she knows many things.”

Di Chen looked at Jie Long and said: “Show them the Sorcerer’s curse.”

Jie Qian understood what Di Chen meant and immediately took out the Sorcerer’s Curse Scroll. This Sorcerer’s Curse could only be cultivated by the Patriarch, and only after the Zha Fei Family Patriarch disappeared, would the consumption of the Sorcerer’s Curse increase. Now that had passed it on to her, in other words, Zha Fei had passed the position of Clan Patriarch to Jie Wei, so for her to be able to obtain Zha Fei’s inheritance meant that Jie Wei was telling the truth.

“It’s really the lost Sorcerer Curse,” After everyone saw the Sorcerer Scroll, their faces filled with shock. Did the Zha Fei Family Patriarch actually pass the position of Patriarch to Jie Long?

Elder Ting received it with some disbelief. He said in surprise, “This is indeed a Sorcerer Curse.”

Hearing Elder Ting’s affirmation, everyone finally realised that Jie Long might be speaking the truth, and they all looked at Yan Huai.

Yan Huai’s expression changed. Since Zha Fei was still alive, she might actually know about this matter.

But he still retorted, “Impossible, this must be nonsense.”

His voice was trembling, and it seemed that even he himself believed Di Chen’s words.

When the crowd heard his trembling voice, how could they not understand the truth? One by one, they coldly stared at him.

A few years ago, when the other barbarian race s had attacked the Witch race, Jie Sang had led his clansmen to block them, but now that Jie Sang had been killed by Yan Huai, the crux of the problem was that he had occupied the position of Clan Leader of the Orange Sang Clan, and he even wanted to kill Jie Wei. How could the crowd bear with his actions?

“Yan Huai, did you really cause the death of Jie Sang?” Elder Hong snapped.

“No …” Yan Huai still wanted to refute him, but his pale white face had already betrayed him.

How could Elder Hong believe him? She shouted sternly: “Men, arrest Yan Huai and bring him under clan rule.”

A few of them immediately rushed towards Yan Huai, pressing him back into the clan.

“That damned beast,” Elder Ting was still a little angry as he thought about it. He looked at Jie Long and sighed, “You’ve worked hard all these years, and it’s all our fault. This commoner was actually deceived by Yan Huai.”

Jie Long lightly shook his head. “It’s nothing.”

However, if she said that Yan Huai had killed her father, no one would believe her. Fortunately, Di Chen was smart, and told them that it was the Zha Fei Family Patriarch who had told them the truth, so how could anyone not believe the words of the Zha Fei Family Patriarch?

Elder Hong looked at Jie Long and said: “So that means Patriarch Zha Fei has already passed the position of Patriarch to you?”

Jie Wei nodded, but soon after, she shook her head and said, “But I don’t want to be the Clan Leader.”

Jie Qian had returned to the Witch race to snatch back the Patriarch’s seat, but now that Di Chen didn’t want to be the Clan Leader, everyone was startled upon hearing this. Who wouldn’t want to be the Clan Master?

Herba Hydrae immediately said: “Jie Wei, what nonsense are you spouting? You are the daughter of the Orange Sang Patriarch, and furthermore, it is the personal request of the Zha Fei Patriarch, how can you refuse?”

Jie Qian knew that the Herba Hydrae wholeheartedly hoped that she could inherit the position of Patriarch. She had wanted to do this before, but she knew that if she were to inherit the position of Patriarch, she had to stay in the Witch race. This was not what she wanted.

How could Herba Hydrae not know what Jie Yuan was thinking? She looked at him tiredly, not knowing what to say.

Elder Hong and Elder Ting also looked at each other. It wasn’t easy to come out of the Temple of Magi, but she didn’t want to inherit the position of the clan leader.

Originally, he had planned to leave Jie Long in the Witch race this time, and then go find the Sect Leader Token of the ten great sects himself. But the reality was that it wasn’t convenient for him to bring Jie Wei along with him.
