Chapter 474: Chapter 474: The Punishment of the God of the Holy Land? Chapter 474: Chapter 474: The Punishment of the God of the Holy Land? He signaled for her not to go on.
Then with a slight effort, he pulled Gu Qiaoqiao over from behind.
He made her stand by his side, which was the safest position for her.
At this moment, in the center of the valley, the Daxi Clan elder had already arrived at the foot of the wooden building.
Looking up at the second floor, the glass in all three windows had shattered.
How could this glass have broken for no reason?
You should know that this glass, which featured an old-fashioned pattern, wasn’t very clear to see through but was very sturdy.
Gu Qiaoqiao’s control of her strength was very good.
After the stone shattered the glass, it fell onto the floor inside the room, together with the broken glass.
The elder went upstairs to carefully inspect the room, which was quite messy, uninhabited, containing miscellaneous items, as well as some scattered stone pieces.
So, Gu Qiaoqiao’s four stones were mixed in with those scattered gemstones and raw stones.
Therefore, the Daxi Clan elder didn’t see anything out of the ordinary.
He then looked out the window anxiously.
He caught sight of the Divine Tree at a glance.
His heart skipped a beat.
It was early morning, and everything was quiet.
Apart from the members of the Gu Family on the mountain valley, there was no one else here.
How did this glass shatter?
What was shocking was that the shattered glass was directly opposite their Altar Platform.
Could it be that their chief deity was punishing him?
Punishing him for acting against his conscience, holding the Gu Family’s vehicles and people?
He remembered the dream he had had last night.
The Daxi Clan elder’s face grew grim.
He had lived for over sixty years and had never done anything against the conscience of heaven and earth.
But this time, it tormented him like fire scorching his heart.
He slowly walked down the wooden building.
Looking at the anxious young man, who was watching him, he thought about how the members of the Gu Family had made him seize these three vehicles until someone came to take over.
More than a week had passed now.
This was all he could do.
After this, he no longer owed that person a favor.
And the apparition just now indicated that their chief deity was warning him not to interfere with other people’s internal conflicts arbitrarily.
With this in mind, he said to the young man,”Let’s go. We’ll head to the entrance of the valley together.”
No matter what, he couldn’t let these people come in.
Once they came in, they would discover the three vehicles here.
By then, he wouldn’t be able to explain himself.
Fortunately, this was a sacred site.
Under certain conditions, its existence is tacitly permitted.
Thus, relying on these tacit conditions, he could prevent outsiders from entering.
After waiting for about ten minutes at the mouth of the valley, Gu Qiaoqiao and her group saw a thin old man dressed in blue, his head wrapped in a cloth, walking towards them with his hands behind his back, following the young man.
Then, the old man stood in front of Uncle Gu, speaking quite good Mandarin, though his eyebrows were furrowed, “You all leave. The sacred site of the Daxi Clan has nothing that you are looking for.”
The very thing was clearly within, how could Uncle Gu possibly just leave like that?
At this point, Uncle Gu became somewhat angry, turning back to look at the four bodyguards.
He really wanted to instruct the four bodyguards to charge in.
Qin Yize gave an unnoticeable cough, and in a soft voice, he said, “Uncle Gu.”
Not knowing the situation inside the valley, any potential conflict could become uncontrollable in its aftermath.
Moreover, obviously, the person behind this all hoped to kill two birds with one stone.
If they couldn’t find the gemstones, those three vehicles full of gemstones would definitely end up in the hands of the mastermind.
Because if it hadn’t been for his detective work, the Gu Family members wouldn’t have known that these vehicles were in the Daxi Clan’s sacred site.
