Chapter 2308: Chapter 2308: There are still secrets?
The white-haired elder is still entangled in this point, believing that once it is unraveled, everything will become clear.
Upon hearing this, the other elders looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion.
If they knew, they wouldn’t be here trapped by the poison on their bodies and would have saved the Family Head long ago.
"The Family Head has been getting more muddle-headed in recent years. Who knows what foolish things he has done again?"
They regret, wondering how they didn’t hold their ground and let that fool become the Family Head under pressure from the Liu Family.
As a result, it brought so much trouble to the Xun Family.
Getting on the bad side of the Demon Heart Hall and Jun Lin Hall, how could the Xun Family have any good days ahead?
Not to mention good days, it’s uncertain whether they will continue to exist in the future.
"No, I need to ask."
The white-haired elder stood up, impatient to inquire about what exactly was going on.
However, as he stood up, he wobbled unsteadily until, supported by his disciple, he finally steadied himself but still spat out a mouthful of black blood.
"Damn it! What is this poison? How can it act so quickly?"
Another elder saw that even the white-haired elder spat blood and cursed, regardless of who the High Priest Demon Heart was and ignoring the fact that they should not offend him.
"It seems the High Priest Demon Heart indeed wants the Xun Family to perish and has taken such vicious action."
"Seventh Elder, is there... could there be some misunderstanding? This poison might not be from the High Priest Demon Heart." The disciple timidly asked upon hearing Seventh Elder’s words.
"What do you mean by this?"
The disciple supporting the white-haired elder heard this, turned to look at him, and asked.
"Uh, well..."
The disciple hesitated whether to speak, but under the elders’ stares, he eventually spoke up.
"The disciple has seen the death state of servants, which is similar to those who have now succumbed to the poison. And those servants, they came into contact with water from the deep pool in the backyard, and the Family Head ordered the matter kept quiet, instructing everyone not to go near the deep pool."
He whispered.
After all, it was just one servant’s death, and naturally, no one paid attention. It’s understandable that these elders didn’t know.
"What did you say?"
All the elders looked at the disciple in disbelief.
So, does it mean the poison wasn’t from the High Priest Demon Heart, but from their beloved Family Head who meddled with it, resulting in the deaths of most of their family from the poisonous water in the deep pool?!
"How could he... how could he do such a thing?"
They couldn’t believe that someone like this was their Family Head, aiming to destroy the Xun Family.
Indeed, they made a mistake back then!
"That damned beast, how dare he do such a thing?"
"You said earlier, where is the Family Head being held?" the white-haired elder suddenly asked.
"Right by the deep pool," the disciple replied.
Hearing this, everyone had a look of understanding; it seems there are secrets in that deep pool, and the High Priest Demon Heart and Lord Qian have personally come to look at it, haven’t they?
This poisonous water from the deep pool was drawn out using demonic energy, causing disaster for the Xun Family’s disciples and servants.
"It’s a sin, that beast truly deserves to die ten thousand times over, it is not enough to ease the chief elder’s grudge!"
