"What Chu Xuan Yuan did was not supposed to implicate his descendants, and I indeed made a mistake back then. However, the crime of Chu Xuan Yuan cannot be forgiven." The patriarch of the Chu clan said.
After he finished speaking, everyone understood that Chu Xuan was still being held captive by the Chu Clan's Heavenly Tribe and had not returned to the Chu Clan.
"What Chu Xuan Yuan did back then was also understandable, and the crime wasn't punishable by death. But I've heard that the forbidden land of the Chu Clan's Heavenly Lineage can devour a person's cultivation. Keeping Chu Xuan Yuan imprisoned in such a place is no different from sentencing him to death."
A voice suddenly sounded, and unexpectedly, the one who said this was a member of the Li Clan's Heavenly Tribe, Li Ruochu.
"What he did indeed deserves the death penalty, our clan is already showing mercy, of course... mainly it's because of the Star Domain Master, no grudges." said the Patriarch of the Chu Clan.
"That's enough, what happened back then was just a play, everyone understands, you don't need to continue acting."
At this moment, Li Tianzong's Li Taizhen suddenly spoke up and said in a suspicious tone: "It is said that the forbidden land of the Chu Clan can make people's cultivation retreat until they lose their cultivation and die. It is precisely because of this that there have been rumors outside that Chu Feng died in that forbidden land not long after being imprisoned."
"But isn't this child standing here perfectly fine now?"
"And yet this child can emerge unscathed, and has even transformed from someone without martial arts talent to a prodigy. It seems that the forbidden land of the Chu Clan's heavenly tribe doesn't match your clan's description."
"I really don't know whether your clan is punishing Chu Xuan or cultivating him by locking him up in such a place."
Li Taiyi's words were full of hidden meanings and subtle implications.
"Our clan's forbidden land, the Star Domain's main realm back then, was a place that people had personally gone to investigate and verify. For cultivators, it was indeed a place like purgatory."
"This matter, Elder Lei can suspect as he pleases. Whether you believe it or not, our clan doesn't care. Originally, this matter has nothing to do with Elder Lei."
The patriarch of the Chu family said.
"Two of you, today we just joined forces to break through the ancient relic's guardian seal, it should be a day of great joy, let's not mention those unpleasant things from the past."
Just then, Liang Qiu said with a smile.
Liang Qiu took advantage of the wind and opened his mouth, and Li Taiyi also stopped talking.
Then, Chu Shi Tianzu and Chu Feng, along with Liang Qiu Chengfeng, Wu Ma Tianzu, and Lí Taìyǐ, entered the ancient ruins together.
Along the way, Liang Qiu Chengfeng kept talking with Chu Feng. Although Liang Qiu Chengfeng was kind to others, it was the first time he had taken the initiative to talk to someone so enthusiastically, let alone a junior.
At this time, those younger generations of various tribes were truly envious of Chu Feng.
Being able to get Liang Qiu's favor is something they have been dreaming of.
Among the vast crowd, advancing into the ancient ruins, Li Ruochu also walked side by side with Li Taizhen, and Li Ruochu was even communicating with Li Taizhen in a secretive manner.
"Your Excellency Taishang, why are you questioning the forbidden land of the Chu Clan's Heavenly Tribe? Don't tell me you also think that Chu Xuan Yuan's cultivation hasn't declined at all?" said Li Ruochu.
Her words can be said to have profound implications.
After the gate of the upper realm was opened, there have been two voices in the Li clan's heavenly family.
One of them was Li Taiyi, who advocated for attacking the Chu family's Tianzu.
Another voice was advocating for not attacking the Chu family's Tianzu, and Li Ruochu was one of them.
The reason for advocating the attack on the Chu Clan's Heavenly Family is simple. The Chu Clan's Heavenly Family is so weak that it cannot compete with the Li Clan's Heavenly Family at all. Taking advantage of this good opportunity, they must be attacked and defeated, otherwise they will be ridiculed by outsiders.
The reason for advocating a peaceful resolution of this matter is actually because of one person, that is Chu Xuan Yuan.
Now even Li Taoyi suspects that Chu Xuan's cultivation may not have declined, so if he still advocates for war with the Chu Clan, it would be simply seeking death.
Even if Chu Xuan's cultivation hasn't made progress over the years, as long as he hasn't regressed, that's still not something the Li Clan's Heavenly Tribe can contend with.
That man, back then... seemed like only the Star Domain's main interface could suppress him.
"Hmph, why was Chu Xuan Yu detained back then? Everyone is very clear about it. He wasn't afraid of the Chu Clan's Heavenly Tribe at all, but rather, he was afraid of the Master of the Star Domain."
"So you should understand that whether Chu Xuan is alive or dead, or whether his cultivation has regressed, this has nothing to do with the war between the Li Clan and the Chu Clan."
"This war is just a war between the Li Clan and the Chu Clan."
"Chu Xuan Yuan is a person who has been expelled from the Chu Clan's Heavenly Family. If he wants to intervene, that would be seeking death for himself, because the Master of the Star Domain will absolutely not let him off."
"So, if I were Chu Xuan Yuan, I would honestly stay in that forbidden land and wait for death, and absolutely not interfere with this matter." said Li Tai Yi.
"So it seems, Great Elder Taishang, that we must go to war with the Chu Clan's Heavenly Family after all?" asked Li Ruochu.
"Something that can be obtained with a mere spit, is there any reason not to take it?" Lady Li said with a faint smile.
Hearing this, Li Ruochu no longer spoke, after all, Li Taoyi's attitude was already so clear, he just wanted to go to war with the Chu Clan Tianzu, his mind was made up.
"Most senior elder, what you said makes a lot of sense, but there is one thing that I need to remind you about."
"Chu Xuan Yuan is a man who is hard to fathom, if he really still wants the Chu Clan's Heavenly Tribe to take charge, then at that time, he may not be someone who can be controlled even by the Master of the Star Domain."
"If even the Star Domain Master Realm cannot restrain him, then what kind of outcome will my Lu Clan face when we go to war with the Chu Clan? I hope that the Supreme Elder will consider this."
"After all, that man is Chu Xuan Yuan, someone who can do anything." Lei Ruo Chu said.
Upon hearing this, the expression in Lady Lei's eyes became complex, but she then hummed softly and said: "Go tell the Clan Master about this, go tell the other Elders about it, ask them if they believe it or not."
"As for understanding Chu Xuan Yuan, I know him better than you do. If he really has the power to surpass even the Star Domain's master realm and become uncontrollable,"
"He won't stay in that forbidden land at all, he has already come out and is killing indiscriminately. Not only will he eliminate the Star Domain's main interface, but also the Chu Clan's Heavenly Tribe."
"And he hasn't shown up yet, there's only one possibility, that is, his cultivation has regressed, and it has regressed to a very weak point." said Li Taoyi.
"If it's really like that, then why did Elder Taishang want to say such things to the Patriarch of the Chu Clan?" asked Li Ruochu.
"It's easy, just stir up trouble between the Chu Clan's Tianzu and the Xingyu Domain's main realm."
"If I dared to suggest attacking the Chu Clan's Heavenly Family, it was because I understood Chu Xuan Yuan well enough. If you don't believe me, I can do one thing to prove my conjecture." Lei Taiyi said this and then cast his gaze towards Chu Feng in the front of the crowd.
"Senior Taishang, what are you going to do?" Lei Ruochu's eyebrows furrowed, with a hint of unease.
"From what I know of Chu Xuan Yuan, if I were to provoke the Chu Clan's Heavenly Tribe, he would likely ignore it."
"But if someone touches his son, he will never let it go," said Li Taier.
