Chapter 472 The Dragon Clan in Trouble
Dragon clan.
"In just one year, a total of ten pure-blooded dragons have been assassinated, including one high-ranking dragon. The murderer has not yet been found. What are you all doing?"
The dragon clan chief angrily smashed the teacup he had always loved.
In the previous three eras combined, their dragon race had never lost so many dragons.
Moreover, he was assassinated.
This was arguably their biggest loss yet.
"Chieftain, it's not that we're incompetent. Forget it, Chieftain, take a look at the intelligence we've gathered!"
At the end of his speech, one of the elders took out a jade slip and handed it to the Dragon Clan Chief.
The dragon clan chief was puzzled. He didn't quite understand what the elder meant, but he still accepted the jade slip.
After receiving it, he immediately used his divine sense to examine the information inside.
After reading it, the dragon clan chief's face turned extremely ugly, and he could hardly believe the information.
He never imagined that this was related to the demon race, the monster race, Buddhism, and the immortal lineage.
He simply couldn't understand why all four factions were attacking their dragon race.
"Are these real?"
The dragon clan chief asked in a deep voice.
"Chief, this is the result of our investigation. This matter involves all four factions. This is a conclusion we reached after confirming it repeatedly."
The elder who spoke just now said very solemnly.
He could hardly believe it when he received the investigation results, but after confirming them repeatedly, he had no choice but to believe it—it was the truth.
An undeniable fact.
"What exactly are they trying to do? Why are they suddenly attacking my dragon clan?"
The dragon clan chief couldn't understand it at all.
Even if it's because of the Qin Dynasty and the Martial Clan, it shouldn't be like this!
After all, although their dragon clan is outwardly allied with the Great Qin Dynasty and the Martial Vein Alliance.
However, they were all just putting on a show and never actually took action against any force. Even when they did take action, it was just for show.
But now that the four major factions dare to attack them, aren't they afraid of really forcing their dragon race to the Qin Dynasty and the Martial Vein?
"Clan leader, according to our analysis, this may not necessarily be their doing. It could also be the work of the Great Qin Dynasty, but we have no evidence."
After pondering for a while, the elder spoke again.
Of course, this is just speculation.
This does not mean that it was actually done by the Qin Dynasty.
Why do you make this guess?
The dragon clan chief inquired.
He did not believe that the Qin Dynasty was responsible for this.
After all, if this matter were exposed, it would not benefit the Qin Dynasty at all, and might even push the Dragon Clan to the opposite side.
Doing so will not be worth the effort.
"Clan leader, this is just one guess. Logically speaking, the Great Qin Dynasty would not do such a thing."
"However, our current actions will indeed displease the Qin Dynasty, and they may very well use this as a pretext to provoke a war between us and the four major factions, which would be most beneficial to the Qin Dynasty."
The elder said.
This is one of the results they derived from their analysis.
There is a high probability that this is true.
However, whether it was done by the Qin Dynasty still needs to be investigated.
Of course, there are other possibilities.
“That’s right, it’s certainly possible. We need to have someone investigate immediately and get to the bottom of this as quickly as possible.”
"We also need to strengthen the protection of our people and absolutely prevent any more assassinations from happening."
After pondering for a while, the dragon clan chief also felt that this was a possibility.
He immediately ordered people to investigate the matter, determined to find out who was behind it.
"Don't worry, clan leader, I've already arranged for people to continue the investigation. However, I'm afraid this matter won't be so easy to investigate."
The elder nodded. This matter concerned the safety of their dragon clan, and he had already sent people to investigate it.
However, since others dare to do it, they must have made arrangements beforehand, and it will probably be very difficult to find out.
"No matter what, we must find out. This matter concerns the safety of our dragon clan. We must find out who is behind it."
The Dragon Clan Chief said solemnly.
Regardless of the outcome, he must find the murderer.
He had to avenge this.
Just then, a figure appeared in the main hall.
"Clan leader, something terrible has happened again. Just now, Dragon Fire Dragon Emperor was assassinated and seriously injured, and is now in a deep sleep."
The messenger quickly reported this.
"What? What happened? Wasn't Long Huo in seclusion? How could he be assassinated?"
The Dragon Clan Chief never expected that someone would dare to assassinate a Dragon Emperor-level expert from their clan.
It's just audacious.
Moreover, Long Huo had been in seclusion, and he knew very well how difficult it would be to assassinate him.
Furthermore, the place where Long Huo secluded himself for cultivation was heavily guarded; how could an assassin possibly infiltrate it?
"Clan leader, I don't know either. If Lord Longhuo hadn't unleashed his power at the end, alerting the guards around us, our people wouldn't have noticed at all."
The visitor said helplessly.
However, by the time their reinforcements arrived, Dragon Emperor was already severely injured and unconscious.
If it had been any later, Dragon Emperor might not have survived.
"Useless scoundrel! Seal off the scene immediately and search for the killer, no matter the cost. We must find him."
The dragon clan chief was furious.
This is blatantly a provocation against the dignity of their dragon race.
This is something he, and the entire dragon race, would not allow.
"Yes."
The messenger accepted the order and left.
"Everyone, now someone has been able to infiltrate our forbidden area silently. This is not good news for our dragon race. If we can't find out which force is behind this, it will be a threat to us."
"It even threatens the lives of all of us here."
After calming down, the dragon clan chief spoke seriously this time.
They won't be able to live in peace until the killer is found.
"Yes, clan leader, we will investigate this matter immediately."
The dozen or so elders present immediately stood up.
They were indeed afraid, even though the Dragon Fire Dragon Emperor was only at the early stage of the Dragon Emperor realm.
If even he could be assassinated, then it's not impossible for him to assassinate them as well.
"Then we'll have to trouble you elders. This matter concerns the safety of the Dragon Clan, so we must not overlook any clues."
The Dragon Clan Chief solemnly glanced at all the elders present.
"Don't worry, clan leader."
The elders all agreed and then hurriedly left.
After all the elders left.
"Dragon Hidden".
The dragon clan chief shouted into the void.
"Clan leader."
A person shrouded in black robes appeared in the main hall.
"You will personally lead a team to investigate this matter. You must find the person hiding in the shadows. Do you understand?"
A cold glint flashed in the dragon clan patriarch's eyes.
He is determined to find the murderer and will not let him get away with it.
"Yes."
Long Yin accepted the order and withdrew.
