Chapter 16: Scale armor seeks for luck, Wu clan disharmony, Golden Crow Nirvana, Phoenix premonition
Emperor Qing met such a gaze and said calmly: "In the present prehistoric world, apart from many unexpected events, the only people who are qualified to hunt many ancestors are the Bird Clan, the Scaled Armor Clan, the Witch Clan I belong to, the Luo Lian in the West, and you ancestors."

“However, my witch clan has no grudges against the many ancestors, and among my witch clan, only thirteen ancestor witches are under the blessing of Buzhou, so we have the confidence to hunt the ancestors. But the land of Buzhou is not so easy to enter. We have attracted the blessing of Buzhou, which is also a huge momentum and will inevitably attract a lot of attention. So these many fallen ancestors have nothing to do with our witch clan.” Di Qing looked at the 350 Yin and Yang ancestors and refuted immediately.

Di Qing was neither humble nor arrogant. He ignored all the inquiring looks and refuted them immediately. It was funny to say that their Wu clan had nothing to do, so they went back to deal with these ancestors.

What's the benefit of beheading these ancestors? The Witch Clan will not do anything that has no benefit.

Seeing what Di Qing said, many ancestors nodded silently, knowing that the Wu Clan, to which Di Qing belonged, had no reason to kill the ancestors.

What's more, with Di Qing's current strength and what he has done, he simply doesn't bother to lie.

At this time, Patriarch Hongjun also said: "I, Hongjun, have no intention of killing many fellow Taoists. I think the same is true for all of you fellow Taoists. After all, although we call ourselves ancestors and we don't have much contact with each other, we are all Kunlun cultivators and can be considered natural neighbors. It may seem nothing at ordinary times, but when we really encounter danger, we Kunlun cultivators are also natural allies. For this reason, we have no intention of hunting down many fellow Taoists."

"That's right. We will never do that. So the only ones who can kill these fellow Taoists right now are Zulong, Phoenix Ancestor, and Luo Lian." Another ancestor said.

"Recently, the Flying Birds and the Scaled Armored Tribes have been recuperating in secret. And Luo Lian has been extremely low-key since his unpredictable trip that year, and we can't find any trace of him at all. Besides, although Luo Lian is very strong, there are strong ones. It is impossible for Luo Lian to kill so many fellow Taoists silently." An old ancestor said in a low voice.

Many ancestors talked to each other, and speculated on the secrets behind the deaths of many ancestors.

But no matter how we talked about it, we couldn't find anyone to suspect.

Emperor Qing watched the dispute and had no intention of joining in. But he was thinking in his heart, who was responsible for the current chaos.

Di Qing instinctively thought of Luo Lian. After all, Di Qing had memories of the later generations and knew that Luo Lian had challenged the prehistoric world and had initiated a battle between the Dao and the Demon. So in this strange situation, Luo Lian was the most likely person.

But Di Qing was just suspicious, and he couldn't say for sure. In the eyes of many ancestors, although Luo Lian was powerful, he was only slightly stronger than them. He didn't have the ability to kill many ancestors directly.

We have been talking about this for years, but there is still no result.

But many ancestors did not leave. They did not want to die for no reason, nor did they want to die quietly. It was also safer to stay together.

In such a situation, Di Qing was too lazy to say anything. On the contrary, with so many ancestors gathered together, he could save the trouble of visiting them one by one. He immediately discussed the Dao with the ancestors around him and discussed the Dao with each other.

The old ancestor was speechless. It was already this late, and you, Di Qing, still had the leisure to discuss the Dao? Besides, everyone knows that your ancestor witches are powerful and have unparalleled physical bodies. You are a person who cultivates his physical body and develops the Dao naturally. Why do you have nothing to do but discuss the Dao with us?
There was no way. Ever since the Wu Clan showed its strength, many cultivators were both wary and curious about the Wu Clan. After learning more about them, they also knew some of the Wu Clan's situations. But they really couldn't understand the special case of Di Qing.

How come you, a cultivator who specializes in body cultivation, want to discuss Taoism with us all day long? You even created a cultivation system that moved them and was extremely suitable for them. It's like a reckless man suddenly picked up a pen and wrote an article that will be passed down through the ages.

Many ancestors were speechless at this feeling of déjà vu. But since Emperor Qing had said so, he had no choice. He was bored anyway, so he might as well discuss the Dao.

After a long time, the originally silent Daoist hall, where everyone was thinking and solemn, began to talk about Dao. The other ancestors also joined in. Anyway, they were free, so they discussed Dao with each other.

For a moment, the sound of the Tao spread throughout the temple.

However, just as everyone was discussing this, in the endless ocean, Zulong looked at the news sent by his clansmen and also felt a lot of his luck dissipating.

"Who is it?" Zulong was furious, feeling the speed of his luck dissipating. He used his luck to sense that many strong men in his clan had fallen. This anger was revealed, passing through many scale-armored strong men.

"Chief, we don't know either. Over the years, apart from recuperating in seclusion, we have been following your orders to find spiritual treasures that can suppress luck. So over the years, many strong men in the tribe have been away from home, and we don't know how they died." A certain scale-armored strong man said helplessly. Zhulong was also solemn at this moment: "Brother, could it be the bird tribe?"

"It shouldn't be. Ever since the battle that year, when Emperor Qing demonstrated the method of suppressing luck, both I and Phoenix Ancestor have been looking for something that can suppress the luck of our race. After all, our three races rose because of luck, and in order to gather luck and prove the truth, our desire for luck far exceeds anything else."

“So after knowing that Emperor Qing could suppress luck, I comprehended the mystery of it. Eventually I realized that the key to suppressing luck is to rely on magic treasures. So whether it is me or the Phoenix Ancestor, we are all anxious to find the treasure that can suppress luck. Instead of resorting to such inferior means as assassination against each other.” Zulong snorted coldly.

"Yes. Based on our understanding of Phoenix Patriarch, he is a very proud cultivator. He would never do such a shameful thing." A certain scale-armored warrior also spoke up.

"Since they are not from the Phoenix clan, then who are they? Could they be the cultivators in Kunlun? Or the beast clan?" Zhulong asked back.

"That's even more impossible. The remaining strong men of the Beast Clan can't possibly hunt down so many strong men so quietly. The cultivators in Kunlun won't be idle and come to provoke our Scale Armor Clan. Unless, unless it's Luo Lian. But Luo Lian doesn't have such strength."

Zulong was puzzled. He knew that each of these fallen warriors was very strong. Even if he wanted to kill them, it would take some time.

Zulong was puzzled and it was difficult to find the answer to the problem. Finally, Zulong ordered: "Order all tribes to return and suspend the search for the treasure of luck. Wait until the reason for the death of the tribesmen is found."

As for the Scaled Armor Clan, due to the deaths of many of their members, they had to come up with a plan to deal with the situation and then go looking for the reasons behind the deaths.

The same is true for the bird clan, and many strong people in their clan have also fallen.

Phoenix Patriarch made a similar decision as Zulong: "Put a hold on the search for the luck treasure. Let's first look for the cultivator who secretly harmed our birds."

Upon hearing this, many birds flew away, each with a look of resentment, wanting to find the monk who was secretly making trouble and avenge their own people.

After many birds left, the Phoenix Ancestor came to the core of the clan's land, where there was a top-grade spiritual root, the Sacred Wutong Tree. This spiritual root was also the companion spiritual root of the Phoenix Ancestor, and it witnessed the growth of the Phoenix Ancestor and the development of the bird clan.

On the sacred Wutong tree, there is a phoenix nest. It was once the place where the Phoenix Clan was born, and it contains a rich Nirvana sacred fire. Now, in the sacred fire, there are two birds that look like phoenixes and golden crows flying.

When they saw the Phoenix Patriarch coming, they immediately flew over and said, "Di Jun, Tai Yi, meet the Patriarch."

"No need to be polite."

The Phoenix Patriarch was very calm, looking at Di Jun and Tai Yi, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. It was because of Di Jun and Tai Yi that the bird tribe and the witch tribe became enemies, which eventually led to the subsequent war.

But Di Jun and Tai Yi were members of his bird clan after all, and he had high hopes for them. So when Di Jun and Tai Yi were severely injured and only one tenth of their essence remained, and they were about to die, they were sent into this nirvana nest by the Phoenix Ancestor, and revived with the nirvana divine fire.

Phoenix Patriarch has done a lot. Looking at Di Jun and Tai Yi now, he asked: "How are you brothers recovering recently?"

"Reporting to the ancestor, my two brothers have recovered very well. I think in tens of thousands of years, we will be able to transform again. And this time, our footsteps will also change from the three-legged golden crow to the phoenix-feathered golden crow."

Di Jun answered sincerely, full of gratitude. Di Jun was grateful to Phoenix Ancestor for saving them and his brothers, and also grateful to Phoenix Ancestor for the opportunity he gave them.
