Chapter 3777 Linghu Ren Jie Pleads Guilty in the Ancentral Hall

Time flew by. In just a blink of an eye, a few months had pa.s.sed.

At Duan Ling Tians courtyard in the Linghu clan.

Young Master, Supreme Elder Heng and Supreme Elder Huan are waiting for you at the entrance. Its time to leave for the Flying Dragon Sect.

Duan Ling Tian who was focused on forming his doppelganger was pulled back to his senses immediately by w.a.n.g Fus voice.

Time pa.s.sed so quickly. Fortunately, Im almost done. Ill continue forming the doppelganger in the flying s.h.i.+p Duan Ling Tian left his room and followed w.a.n.g Fu to the front of the courtyard where Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan were waiting. Then, he greeted them with a smile, Greetings, Supreme Elder Heng and Supreme Elder Huan. Sorry to trouble you.

Just like usual, Elder Heng nodded slightly, as taciturn as ever.

On the contrary, Linghu Huan smiled and walked toward Duan Ling Tian before he said, Duan Ling Tian, I heard from the clan leader that youve broken through and became an intermediate Kings of G.o.ds. It seems like you have a high chance of ranking in the top three.

I hope so, Supreme Elder Huan.

When they were about to leave, Duan Ling Tian realized that Linghu Ren Jie was absent, which was unlike Linghu Ren Jie. Hence, he asked, confused, Is the clan leader not joining us?

The clan leader led the others and departed early, Linghu Huan said. A hint of uneasiness, which went unnoticed by Duan Ling Tian, flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Duan Ling Tian nodded. Since it made sense, he did not suspect anything was wrong. After all, he was not the only one from the Linghu clan who was partic.i.p.ating in the Flying Dragon Sects entrance examination. There were disciples of the Linghu clan who wanted to be inner disciples and outer disciples of the Flying Dragon Sect as well.

Lets go. Linghu Huan gestured to Duan Ling Tian before they boarded the lord-grade flying s.h.i.+p.

The flying s.h.i.+p left the Linghu clans estate and flew toward the Flying Dragon Sect. Since they were not in a hurry, the flying s.h.i.+p only flew at the speed of a rudimentary Lord of G.o.ds. It would take some time before they reached the Flying Dragon Sect at such a speed.

After excusing himself, Duan Ling Tian continued to form the doppelganger from the law of s.p.a.ce in the flying s.h.i.+p. Since there were no outward signs during the process, it did not matter that Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan could see him.

Upon seeing this, Linghu Huan said to Linghu Heng through Voice Transmission, Hes trying to form a doppelganger from the law of s.p.a.ce. Elder brother, do you think he has a chance to rank first in the Latent Dragon Grand Contest? Itd be unprecedented in the Linghu clan if that happens. The best ranking weve gotten was in the top three.

The Flying Dragon Sects Latent Dragon Grand Contest was held every 100 years. Although the Linghu clan had a long history, none of their members had ranked first before. With this, one could imagine how tough the compet.i.tion was.

Itll be difficult. Linghu Heng shook his head. If hes an advanced King of G.o.ds, with his methods, I believe ranking first wont be a problem for him. Alas, hes just an intermediate King of G.o.ds now. Dont forget that therell be many outstanding advanced Kings of G.o.ds under the age of 10,000 who are comparable to rudimentary Lords of G.o.ds partic.i.p.ating in the Latent Dragon Grand Contest.

Linghu Heng was not taciturn when communicating with his younger twin brother through Voice Transmission. Youre right. Linghu Huan nodded in agreement. His gaze was complex as he turned to look at the purple figure sitting cross-legged in the corner of the flying s.h.i.+p. Hes not even 3,000 years old. His only disadvantage is that hes too young. Although we have 3 disciples among the younger generation whose strength was comparable to Duan Ling Tians when he killed Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao, Im sure Duan Ling Tian has long surpa.s.sed those three brats after more than 20 years, Linghu Huan murmured in a low voice.

Since Duan Ling Tian was immersed in forming his doppelganger, he did not hear Linghu Huans words. He wanted to form the doppelganger before the start of the Latent Dragon Grand Contest.

As Linghu Huan had said earlier, the disciples of the Linghu clan had indeed left earlier for the Flying Dragon Sect. However, they were led by Elder Linghu Zheng Xing instead as requested by Linghu Ren Jie himself.

A few days after Duan Ling Tian left with Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan, Linghu Ren Jie gathered a group of elders, including Linghu Qing Ze and another Lord of G.o.ds who had protected Duan Ling Tian from Supreme Elder Feng in the past.

The supreme elders, the core elders, and the inner elders in the Linghu clan had the same status as their counterparts in the Hidden Fog Sect and the 10,000 Devils Sect.

The elders were all confused that they had been summoned to the ancestral hall. After all, they would usually gather in the main hall when discussing the affairs of the clan.

At this moment, the usually quiet and empty ancestral hall was lively and filled with people.

Why did the clan leader summon us here? one of the core elders asked.

I dont know. Even if something happened, shouldnt we be discussing it in the main hall? another core elder said with a frown on his face.

Elder Qing Ze is here as well!

The elders who arrived early quickly greeted the old woman who had just arrived. She was the one who had guarded Linghu Chu Yin while they were in King Descending City.

Elder Tang Ping is here as well!

Soon after, an old man with hair as white as snow entered the ancestral hall as well. He was a Supreme Elder as well, and his name was Linghu Tang Ping. He was the Lord of G.o.ds that had protected Duan Ling Tian from Supreme Elder Feng in the past.

It did not take long before a dozen elders who were also supreme elders entered the ancestral hall. They were not as strong as Linghu Zheng Xing, Linghu Heng, and Linghu Huan, whose strength was comparable, if not superior, to the three Supreme Elders of the Hidden Fog Sect. As for Supreme Elder Feng, he was no longer mentioned after his demise. About half an hour later, almost everyone had arrived. No one knew why Linghu Ren Jie had summoned them here.

Wheres the clan leader? someone asked patiently.

As soon as his voice fell, a figure entered the ancestral hall.

Clan Leader!

The elders bowed and greeted Linghu Ren Jie. A few of them looked at him in confusion, wondering why he had summoned them to the ancestral hall.

However, before any of them could speak, Linghu Ren Jie walked toward the table that housed the memorial tablets of the Linghu clans fallen ancestors and kneeled in front of them, kowtowing thrice.

Upon seeing this, everyone grew uneasy. Although they did not know what happened, they knew something was wrong.

Ancestors of the Linghu clan, I, Linghu Ren Jie, have failed you. Ill now resign from my position as the Clan Leader of the Linghu clan. Ill now let the elders here select a new clan leader.

Everyone was shocked when they heard these words that echoed loudly in the hall.

Clan Leader, what happened? Linghu Qing Ze asked with a frown.

Similarly, the other elders frowned and looked at Linghu Ren Jie in confusion.

Finally, Linghu Ren Jie said, As the clan leader, I abused my power and allowed Duan Ling Tian to stay in the chamber of laws for three years, exhausting one-third of our divine stones. I even deliberately hid the truth from the clan. For this reason, Ill resign from my position as clan leader, and Im willing to accept any punishment deemed fit by the elders.
