2611 Shameless betrayal
“Lord patriarch, we’ve searched for so many years, but we still haven’t discovered the Yue clan’s Secret. I heard that Yue Kaili has been taken to the ethereal sect residence since he was young, and he hasn’t returned for so many years. Could it be that he doesn’t know anything?” The servant guessed.
“The Yue clan’s Secret has only been passed down to the clan head since ancient times. He’s the only son of the Yue clan’s last generation. If even he doesn’t know about it, then no one in the world knows about this secret.” Xue Xiaoqing was silent for a moment before he asked,”by the way, have you caught the few people who escaped?”
“No, those people were too cunning and they managed to escape. However, with their injuries, I don’t think they could have gone too far. I’ve already sent people to look for them.” The servant replied.
“We have to get Yue Kaili to speak as soon as possible. Otherwise, if this matter were to spread to the ethereal sect residence, I’m afraid it wouldn’t end well. And if that Lord gets angry, our entire Xue clan will probably suffer. ” Xue Xiaoqing said worriedly.
“Lord patriarch, I really can’t think of any other way.” The servant said with a bitter face.
“Forget it, I’ll go personally.” Xue Xiaoqing said helplessly.
Soon, the two arrived at the ancestral hall in the backyard. This was originally the Yue clan’s ancestral hall, but now it was also taken by the Xue clan, and the memorial tablets of the Xue clan ancestors were enshrined.
Xue Xiaoqing reached out and made a few hand seals. The light patterns of the array flickered and a hidden stone door appeared in front of him. It turned out that there was a secret room in the ancestral hall.
After passing through the long passage, the two of them entered the secret room.
A white-haired old man was currently being locked up in a secret room. All of his meridians were restricted, and his hands and feet were still firmly bound by cold iron chains. It was Yue Kaili.
“Greetings, have you been resting well these days?” Pushing open the door, Xue Xiaoqing asked with a smile.
“Hmph, Xue Xiaotian, you finally have the face to see me.” Yue Kaili coldly snorted and said in disdain.
“Greetings, adopted brother has been in closed door cultivation for the past few days, I have neglected you.” Xue Xiaoqing’s smile remained unchanged as he spoke.
“Sworn brother, you still have the face to call yourself my sworn brother. In order to take over my family’s property, your Xue family disregarded our many years of friendship and destroyed my entire family. I pity that I was blind. It was only today that I saw the true face of your Xue family.” Yue Kaili angrily cursed.
For decades, he did not know who the real murderer was, nor did he have the power to investigate. He also knew that even if he found the real murderer, he would not be able to take revenge.
When he returned to Qingyuan City after his successful cultivation, he found out that the Xue clan had replaced the Yue clan, and even the Yue clan’s ancestral residence had been taken over by the Xue clan. However, Yue Kaili had left home for so many years that his personality had long become indifferent and detached. In addition, he and Xue Xiaoqing were sworn brothers, so even though he was slightly displeased, he did not take it to heart.
He didn’t want to have too much to do with him and only faintly greeted him. Who knew that when he turned around, he would be ambushed and injured by Xue Xiaoqing, who then imprisoned him in an attempt to find out the Yue clan’s Secret from him.
Yue Kaili was no fool, and he easily understood the reason behind this. In his anger, Yue Kaili wished he could tear Xue Xiaoqing to pieces, but he had always avoided meeting him, only allowing his subordinates to come forward. Today was his second time seeing Xue Xiaoqing.
“Kai Li, you’re wrong.” Xue Xiaoqing sighed and shook his head.
“I was wrong? Don’t tell me you still want to deny it and say that my Yue clan’s destruction had nothing to do with you?” Yue Kaili was so angry that he laughed and asked sternly with his eyes wide open.
