Chapter 293 Elder Solo is still the best
After hearing Solo's words, Jiao Xuan's face changed and she blurted out: "You mean... Cang Lan?! Could it be that he colluded with outsiders, so..."
"Impossible!" Canghai interrupted Jiaoxuan in a harsh voice, "Brother will never do anything that would harm the mermaids! Don't make false accusations!"
Jiao Xuan was interrupted by Cang Hai, and her face was very unhappy, "How can it be impossible! He was the successor chosen by the previous great elder, but later he fell into depravity and was willing to give up the position of elder in the clan for an outsider. But the previous great elder had already told him about the secrets of our clan! Naturally, he also knows the secrets of the Saint's body very well!"
Jiao Xuan narrowed her narrow eyes slightly, "Although the four of us occasionally have disputes for the sake of peace in the tribe, we are all dedicated to our tribe members! Several elders in the tribe have been secluded for many years and have never had any contact with the outside world! Only Canglan! With the kindness of the former great elder, he was appointed as the shopkeeper of Renyi Inn, responsible for welcoming and seeing off those outsiders. He is the person most likely to collude with outsiders! Who else could it be if not him!"
"Nonsense!" Canghai was furious when he heard Jiaoxuan's words that she wanted to frame his brother as a traitor. "My brother has been working hard to guard the Renyi Inn for these years, working hard without a single day of rest! If he wanted to collude with outsiders and betray the tribe, why would he wait until today!"
Jiao Xuan snorted coldly, "Tsk! This time it was the Saint's own good fortune that exposed it. Who knows how many more dirty things she has done behind the scenes?!"
Canghai: “You…”
Lan Qimeng's eyes widened, her face full of horror.
She knew that the first elder Cyber and the second elder Solo had always been at odds with each other and often quarreled because of their different ideas on how to treat immortals from the outside world.
But the third elder Jiao Xuan and the fourth elder Cang Hai have always been the ones who try to mediate quarrels. This is the first time I have seen these two quarreling until their faces turned red and their necks became thick. It really opened the eyes of the mermaids!
Lan Qimeng stepped back a little to avoid the saliva attacks from the two men, leaned against a large rock beside the holy spring with her chin supported, thinking about what had happened to her this time.
Grandpa Canglan has always been very good to her. He knows that she has been trapped in the holy land for cultivation since she was a child, so he would come to tell her about the outside world from time to time, and every time he came, he would give her delicious cakes and pastries.
She was conceived naturally from the spiritual energy of the Mirage Sea. She has no father or mother. Unlike other mermaids in the tribe, she is not cared for by elders.
She had always regarded Grandpa Canglan as a relative, and she didn't believe that he would tell outsiders about his physical secrets and murder her.
However, Elder Jiao Xuan was right. Since there were only a few people who knew this secret, all of them were suspects. It would not be good to only bring the elders here for questioning without calling Canglan grandpa.
Anyway, real gold is not afraid of fire, so let Grandpa Canglan come over and explain it clearly!
Lan Qimeng was about to speak. Seeing Jiaoxuan and Canghai quarreling more and more outrageously, Saibo, who had been silent with a gloomy face, had no choice but to open his mouth and shout.
"Enough! Why bother arguing here? Since there is suspicion, call Canglan over and question him together!"
"Great Elder!" Canghai became anxious upon hearing Saibo's words, with a look of shock and disappointment on his face. "You have been friends with my brother for many years, and you know his character best. Do you also suspect that he is colluding with outsiders and betraying the tribe?"
Cyber had a dark face and didn't even look at him. Instead, he looked at Jiao Xuan beside him, "Third Elder, please go and bring Canglan back to the Holy Land! There are many people in the inn, so remember not to attract everyone's attention and keep a low profile!"
Jiao Xuan cupped her hands, "Yes! Great Elder! I will definitely bring Cang Lan back!"
“Great Elder!” Canghai took a few steps back, walked up to Cyber, and said anxiously, “You know! My brother will never betray the tribe!”
"Whether there will be betrayal or not, we will know after investigation! Fourth Elder, since you are going to invite the elders of the clan, then go quickly! Don't delay!"
"..." Seeing Cyber's cold and ruthless look, Canghai finally did not dare to disobey the order of the great elder. He could only flick his tail, splashing ripples, and then reluctantly responded with a "yes!" and turned away...
Seeing the two people walking out of the holy land, Solo's eyes flashed, and he lowered his eyes and hid the smile on his lips.
After watching Canghai leave, Cyber turned around and looked at Solo who was sitting cross-legged in the holy spring. There was coldness in his eyes, but he was thinking in his heart.
This Solo, who had always had different political views from him and was unwilling to remain in his position as the second elder, wanted to replace him and take his place himself. Over the years, he had been lobbying and winning over the hearts of the people in the tribe.
Canglan is in charge of the Renyi Inn, which is the gateway for communication with outsiders. Solo has always wanted to win him over, but Canglan is his close friend. Although he has cut off contact with him over the years, Canglan probably has seen through his wolf ambitions and is unwilling to be with him and become his enemy, so he has refused many times.
Could it be that Solo, seeing that he could not win Canglan over, wanted to accuse Canglan of being a traitor and then place his own people in any inn?
A trace of vigilance flashed through Cyber's mind, but he remained expressionless. He returned to his seat, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and said nothing more...
Lan Qimeng looked around at the two elders, moved her fishtail cautiously, and just as she was about to stand up, she heard Cyber's cold voice.
"Saintess! Originally, since you have become an adult and it was boring to practice in the holy land, I allowed you to participate in the auction of Jubao Pavilion so that you could see the outside world. However, you were playful and trusted others too easily, and tried to use the power of outsiders to leave the Crystal Palace, which led to this disaster!
Now the thief has not been cleared, the matter has not been investigated, and there are many dangers outside. Where does the Saint want to go? ! "
"..." Lan Qimeng swallowed her saliva, raised her head and cautiously glanced at the Cyber Elder who still had his eyes closed. Then she quickly lowered her head and dared not look again. "Grand Elder, don't be angry. It is indeed Qimeng's fault this time! If I hadn't trusted Lu Fengxian so easily, I wouldn't have been deceived by him and almost lost my life! But..."
Lan Qimeng quietly raised her head and glanced at Cyber's face out of the corner of her eye. "But, I have already made a pact with someone, and she is still waiting for my news outside the Holy Land. I think..."
"Don't even think about it!" Cyber suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze like a knife, piercing Lan Qimeng's face, "Stay in the holy land! Wait until everything is over! I'll deal with you!"
Lan Qimeng shuddered all over, bit her lips and dared not speak any more.
“Great Elder!” Solo, who had been pretending to sleep with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes with a half-smile on his face. “Although the Saint is young, she is still a Saint after all! You scold her all the time. Don’t you think she is not worthy of your respect?”
"Elder Solo..." Lan Qimeng looked at Solo who was speaking for her with tears in her eyes.
Woohoo, Elder Solo is still the best, he will protect her, unlike Elder Cyber, who is always fierce when talking to her...
