"Why does the flood dragon eat children?"
"Was this really arranged by our Ancient Clan?"
"How could this be? Isn't the flood dragon the divine beast of our Ancient Clan?"
"Patriarch? Is this actually true?"
"Patriarch! We must root out this inhumane bastard. Even if they are from the Ancient Clan, they cannot be let off lightly!"
...
The scenes of sacrificing to the flood dragon played continuously on the large outdoor screen.
It wasn't just once; it had been filmed multiple times.
Almost every time, it was in the exact same location.
The same flood dragon, the same masked men.
Only the twenty children were different each time.
The footage played over and over again.
It didn't just shock the people attending the funeral.
Even the people of the Ancient Clan themselves were shocked.
In a few of the clips, after the flood dragon finished eating the children and left,
several of the masked men even took off their masks to chat.
One of them was astonishingly Ye Long of the Ye family.
However, the content of their conversation made the eyes of the entire Ancient Clan widen in disbelief.
"These people from the Ancient Clan are truly vicious, forcing our family to catch children to feed the dragon."
"Normally, they spout righteousness and morality on the surface, but behind our backs, they do this kind of inhumane deed."
"I don't consider myself a good person, but compared to the Ancient Clan, I'm still miles behind."
"Brother Long, exactly who in the Ancient Clan came up with this method to please the flood dragon?"
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask! Do you have a death wish?!"
After this conversation was exposed.
Ye Long went completely numb.
The people of the Ancient Clan were also stunned.
Taking living children to feed the Ancient Clan's divine beast, the flood dragon.
They simply couldn't accept it.
They refused to believe that someone from the Ancient Clan would do something so cruel.
Such a vicious act had completely crossed the psychological bottom line of all the honest and simple Ancient Clan people.
Especially when seeing the expressions of those poor children in the video, constantly crying and trembling.
Yet ultimately unable to escape the giant, tooth-filled maw of the flood dragon.
Countless mothers with children felt their hearts shatter upon seeing the scene of the children being ruthlessly swallowed by the flood dragon.
At this moment, all the Ancient Clan members stared at Gu Yang in disbelief.
Hoping the patriarch would root out that Ancient Clan member.
Gu Yang's mind was completely blank at this moment.
The moment he saw the flood dragon swallow twenty innocent children in one bite.
His heart couldn't help but tremble.
Now, seeing all the Ancient Clan members looking at him.
He only felt his mouth and throat go dry.
He opened his mouth trembling, but couldn't say a single word.
His mind was already a tangled mess.
"What... what should I do?"
"That was an order I gave personally!"
"If the Ancient Clan finds out I arranged this, how disappointed will they be in me?"
"I will become a sinner of the Ancient Clan. Will I be expelled from the Ancient Clan?"
"I might not even be allowed into the Ancient Clan's genealogy after I die."
Although he had initially decided to shoulder everything for the sake of the Ancient Clan.
But when the day of exposure actually arrived.
Gu Yang realized he had no mental preparation whatsoever.
He didn't know how to face his own clansmen.
At this moment, the person panicking even more than Gu Yang was Ye Wujiang.
"Damn it! Who filmed this?!"
Ye Wujiang grabbed Ye Long by the collar at this moment.
And questioned him in a low voice.
The matter of helping the Ancient Clan catch children.
Ye Wujiang had always handed it over to Ye Long or Ye Xing to handle.
However, the person secretly filmed in the video was entirely Ye Long.
Ye Long was also completely bewildered.
He had never imagined.
That someone had actually placed a hidden camera at the scene.
Who was it?
How did they know the location of the sacrifice to the flood dragon?
Ye Long couldn't figure it out.
He could only panic and beg Ye Wujiang for mercy:
"Grandpa, I don't know what's going on either!"
"I never thought we would be secretly filmed!"
"Grandpa, what should we do?"
"The Ancient Clan should protect us, right!"
"Anyway, the ones who died were just those little foreign devils."
Ye Wujiang was panicking terribly in his heart. Feeling resentful that iron couldn't become steel, he pushed Ye Long aside.
In his mind, Gu Yang's past words echoed.
If word ever got out, the Ye family would be destroyed.
"What do we do now?"
On the other side, Ye Xing was currently observing Gu Yang's expression.
Everything was going according to his plan.
The Ye family was finished this time.
The hatred suppressed in his heart for decades finally began to sprout the satisfying thrill of revenge.
From childhood to adulthood, the family's neglect, humiliation, enslavement, abandonment, framing, and even being cuckolded.
He would exact his revenge for all of it today.
Ye Xing was waiting.
Waiting for the moment Gu Yang couldn't hold it together anymore.
To deal the fatal blow to the Ye family.
At the same time, this matter was also causing a massive uproar across the entire internet.
Especially among the parents who had lost their children.
At this moment, they completely broke down.
Riots instantly erupted in the Western Continent Administrative Region.
The Liu family, which governed the Western Continent Administrative Region, immediately arranged for people to suppress them.
At the same time, the same thing happened in the Southern Continent and Northern Continent.
Originally, when Great Xia controlled the world.
These three continents were relatively peaceful.
But ever since the Ancient Clan took over the world.
Everything suddenly fell into chaos.
Gangs and factions were everywhere.
Ordinary people who hadn't cultivated martial arts were reduced to beasts of burden for martial artists.
And now, even their children were being snatched away to feed dragons.
At this moment.
They couldn't endure it any longer.
They would rather die than not rebel.
...
Inside a shopping mall in the Southern Continent.
Gu Qianqian had found a job.
Playing the piano in a cafe.
Ever since she learned the piano, she had fallen in love with the instrument.
Of course, her favorite in her heart was still the guqin she had played since childhood.
At the same time, her piano talent was quite famous in the Southern Continent.
Countless people came out of admiration, ordering a cup of coffee at this cafe just to enjoy her beautiful melodies.
Gu Qianqian's memories of the Seven Severing Zither at the Heaven and Man as One realm allowed her to easily master the piano.
She could also infuse her own emotions into it.
Making those who heard the music feel her joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.
Qianqian really enjoyed this kind of life.
She had also made many friendly friends here.
But today, the cafe was a bit noisy.
There was even the sound of a woman crying.
Qianqian stopped playing the piano.
Relying on her powerful hearing.
She quickly caught the important information everyone was discussing.
"The Ancient Clan is catching children to feed a dragon!"
When Gu Qianqian heard this, she simply couldn't believe her ears.
She couldn't guarantee that every Ancient Clan member was a good person.
But she could guarantee that the Ancient Clan would absolutely never do something so utterly devoid of conscience.
Just then, the cafe owner walked over leaning on his cane and said:
"My dear blind pianist, it's best if you return to your place and hide for a few days."
"A riot against the Great Xia Ancient Clan has broken out outside, and it might spread to our mall."
"The mall supervisor just informed me that we need to close up shop immediately."
"If you need any help, you can tell me."
"Also, you have a Great Xia face, so you must be careful of those who have gone mad."
Although Qianqian's eyes couldn't see images.
But relying on her sonic martial arts to perceive sound waves.
She could already feel that hundreds of meters away on the street, many people were holding signs, marching, and shouting.
It was just that she couldn't perceive the images and text on the signs.
"Thank you, Mr. Jones, I don't need any help."
Qianqian smiled and thanked him.
She stood up and left the fragrant cafe.
