Chapter 700: Yao's Chaos 70
g beckoned to her, motioning for her to sit beside him. Feng Lingxi had wanted to refuse, but seeing Dugu Yan's gaze on her, she endured her displeasure and walked over to sit beside Dugu Cheng. Look...Although she is a woman, this position of Saint Lord cannot be relinquished, nor can it be escaped. Why can't she take over naturally, govern well, and put an end to those people's thoughts
Feng Lingxi had never wanted the position of Yaozu Saint Lord so clearly before, and now she was certain, she wanted this position, and no one was allowed to vie for it with her.
"Third Elder, do you have any explanation for what the Grand Elder has said"
Feng Lingxi coldly stared at Yao Zhi, meeting the coldness in his eyes, and kindly reminded him, "Now that the truth is out, the traitor in the Yao clan from beginning to end has always been you, not my mother, nor me."
"How is the Saintess to explain her dealings with the Taishang Empress of the Great Yuan Dynasty"
Yao Zhi watched as the villagers began to waver, and he clung to that.
"Clan members should clearly know, within this Yao clan, what conditions are needed to open this treasure"
Wind Ling Xi took out the Purple Star Necklace from her bosom. The Yao Clan people saw this Purple Star Necklace and started to discuss it again.
“Zixing is here with me, and my mother has already passed it on to me. It was activated through blood recognition, so now I am its master. Not to mention that I haven't even touched this treasure, even if I really wanted to open the Yao Clan's treasury, I would have to ask the patriarch first, report to him and the other clansmen. These steps for opening the treasury, how could the three elders not know”
Yao Zhi's face was ashen, his eyes fixed on the Zi Xing in her hand. The Zi Xing was the key to opening the treasure vault, and it recognized its master. Most importantly, he didn't know the other conditions for opening the treasure vault. No one except the Saint Lord and the clan leader could figure that out.
Feng Lingxi's purple star in her hand drew the attention of all the villagers.
"Yao Zhi, you colluded with the tribes from Mount below, joining forces with them to sell Yao tribe's information to them, allowing them to help you become the Yao tribe's Saint Master. And now, these armies of the Yao tribe's clans are at the gate, Yao Zhi, is this not treason against your clan What else could it be"
Yao Shu's reprimand caused panic among the Yao people. Hearing that their tribe was under attack from outside, they all panicked and looked at Yao Zhi with apprehensive eyes.
"If I'm not mistaken, these tribes have sent out about 100,000 soldiers. Am I right, Elder Three"
Feng Lingxi's red lips curled up slightly, the coldness in her eyes deepening. Yao Zhi saw that they all knew, so he simply spoke out.
"Well then, Feng Lingxi, this position of the Yao Clan Holy Lord, you are not worthy..."
“I don't deserve it, so you feel you do. You’re at twilight, still clinging to something that doesn’t belong to you. Isn't that pathetic Even if I gave you the position of Lord Saint, how many years could you sit there And besides, you’re not a woman. Could you give birth to an heir for the Yao Clan”
Feng Lingxi's words made Yao Zhi's face even darker, and his words became more harsh.
"No matter what, I'm stronger than you. What does it matter that you and your mother are the chosen ones of the Holy Lord What have you sacrificed for the Yao Clan I've sacrificed my whole life! Inside and outside this Yao Clan, where isn't everything taken care of by me"
Your traitorous heart is plain for all to see, Yao Zhi. Since you have confessed, the Yao clan will not keep you.
Feng Lingxi didn't want to waste words with him. She looked at the Yaozu clan members, her eyes scanning the crowd with a fierce gaze.
The Yao people have only one purpose: to guard the treasures of the Yao people. They hide their identities from the outside world and remain peaceful within, doing what they are supposed to do. Am I right
Although the clansmen were still wavering, they acknowledged what Feng Ling Xi said.
"I don't understand why my identity and my mother's identity were exposed. But I think the Third Elder must know. He handles all external affairs of the Yao clan. If he doesn't speak up, who else could possibly know about me and my mother"
"Traitors, they must be killed."
Luo Li stood up and swept his cold eyes over the crowd. "Remember the clan rules well, whoever dares to break them will be severely punished."
Yao Zhi's eyes turned cold. Looking at the sudden turn of events, he suddenly raised his hand towards Feng Ling Xi and struck out with a palm strike, wanting to sneak attack her. Just as he started his chi flow, blood surged upward, and a sharp pain stabbed through his chest. Yao Zhi spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turned pale, and his whole body felt weak.
"Grand Elder, you are a high-ranking elder of the Yao Clan after all. This sneak attack tactic, wasn't it already used by Yao Shu You want to use it again Don't you think that's being overly foolish"
Feng Lingxi turned around to face Yao Zhi. The confidence in her eyes made Yao Zhi stare at her in disbelief.
What did you do to me
The clansmen behind Yao Zhi drew their swords, pointing them at Feng Lingxi, protecting Yao Zhi but keeping a certain distance. Feng Lingxi's actions were too strange. Before them, it seemed like she had used some kind of sorcery.
It seems the Elder Three have forgotten something very important.
Feng Lingxi looked at the flustered eyes of Elder Six and Elder Eight. They hadn't expected Yao Zhi to suddenly appear in such a situation. For a moment, they didn't know which side to stand on.
"If you want to get rid of me, you should investigate properly. Feng Lingxi is not only the fourth princess of the Great Yuan Dynasty, but also... what else can I say In the past year, I have become quite a prominent figure in the Great Yuan Dynasty. You don't even know that I can poison people, you really don't take me seriously."
Feng Lingxi shook her head disdainfully, the look of contempt in her eyes made Yao Zhi even angrier. He wanted to use his energy, but coughed up another mouthful of blood instead, his face pale as he clutched his chest, glaring at her fiercely, gritting his teeth with rage.
"Coward!"
Feng Lingxi smirked, a cold smile playing on her lips. Her beautiful eyes swept over Yao Zhi's gaze, which was filled with murderous intent.
For someone like you, do I need to be honest and upfront Besides, who are you to talk about being despicable You don't have the qualifications.
Wind Ling snorted coldly, the coldness in her eyes deepening. "Since you have betrayed your clan and framed my mother's fall from the cliff, you should know what awaits you today. Your actions mean you don't deserve even a chance to live."
Feng Ling's eyes turned cold in an instant, her gaze narrowing. At that moment, Yao Zhi suddenly covered his neck, his eyes widening. His throat felt as if it were being choked, and he writhed in pain, his legs struggling, his eyes bulging, his expression contorted into a terrifying grimace. Blood continuously flowed from the corners of his mouth, nose, ears, and eyes. This sight sent chills down everyone's spines.
"You..."
Yao Zhi pointed at Feng Ling Xi, but ultimately failed to utter the words he wanted. His body went limp and he collapsed, blood pouring from his seven orifices. Those present all paled with shock, but in the blink of an eye, Yao Zhi was dead.
Feng Lingxi's ruthlessness left the Yao people speechless. No one had expected Yao Zhi to die like this, especially on his enthronement day, a day that should have been filled with joy but was now stained with blood.
"Saintess, what do you mean You made such a harsh move before even explaining yourself. Don't you fear the clan will rebel"
The Elder Six led the cheering, his followers and those of the Eighth Elder joined in, and in an instant, the scene became a cacophony. asking questions, it's none of your business, don't interrupt."Feng Lingxi sneered, looking at Feng Aotian's posture, she couldn't help but ask, "I dare to ask General Feng, do you mean that I am not...
