Chapter 4603: One Step Ahead of You
Xia Tian knew all of Gu Ao's actions. He complained to Xia Tian about every step of his plan. He didn't know that his complaints simply made it easier for Xia Tian.
Because he planned to give gifts to show his favor to the great elders and stabilize them first, Xia Tian also directly changed the gifts and replaced them with some very interesting things.
At the same time, he was also trying to bribe other elders. Xia Tian also found an opportunity to reveal this to other elders.
Xia Tian did these things very secretly.
At the same time, Xia Tian began to choose to attack the people in the inner courtyard.
After a relaxing day, Xia Tian returned to the bottom of the endless abyss.
He had fun, but Gu Ao was not happy.
Because the gifts he sent to the great elders all turned into dead mice, which not only failed to show favor to these great elders, but also directly angered these great elders.
Moreover, the news that he bribed other elders was leaked, and those elders who were about to succeed were called to talk by the great elders. After a round of coercion and intimidation, those elders all confessed.
This made the grudge between him and the supreme elders worse. The relationship that was originally going to ease up has now become worse.
"Damn it, what is going on? Did they deliberately make things difficult for me and exchanged the things for dead rats? But even if that's the case, how did they know that I contacted those elders?" Gu Ao thought he was doing things very perfectly.
He usually takes everything into consideration when doing things.
So he appeased these supreme elders while selecting a few elders whose confidence was shaken. He had talked to those elders for a long time, and he also promised that he would let these elders take the position of supreme elders in the future.
Originally, these elders were just a little bit away from being defeated, and finally they could also surrender to him and become a heavy bomb he buried next to these supreme elders, but now he has lost everything.
He was really unwilling, and he didn't understand what was going on and why such a thing happened.
"Chief, the supreme elders are here." A subordinate reported.
"Something must have gone wrong. Where exactly is it?" Gu Ao frowned. He always wanted to find out what went wrong, but no matter how hard he thought, he couldn't think of it, because he thought everything he did was perfect.
But now there are so many mistakes.
He would never believe that he would make mistakes.
"Patriarch, we can't stop the Supreme Elders." Another subordinate ran in.
"Let them in!" Gu Ao also understood that it was useless to delay. He couldn't delay them at all. The Supreme Elders had very hot tempers. Now that his affairs were exposed, he had to think of a plan, otherwise it would probably cause a war.
Bang!
Gu Ao's door was kicked open.
Led by the Supreme Elder, all ten Supreme Elders arrived.
"Gu Ao, I am really blind. I was fooled by your trick." The Supreme Elder now felt that his IQ was insulted. Gu Ao dared to lie to him about such a thing, which was absolutely unbearable for him.
When Gu Ao knelt down to him before, he knew that Gu Ao was doing it for the good of the ancient clan and for the good of everyone, but now, all of this has been broken.
All his trust in Gu Ao is gone. Gu Ao actually took advantage of their busy time for the ancient clan to bribe their men. How can they tolerate this?
Gu Ao is trying to stab them in the back.
Gu Ao narrowed his eyes at this time. He did not speak, but to these supreme elders, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something just now.
In his heart, Gu Ao is a super existence.
A true top master, his face is full of arrogance.
"Gu Ao, do you think that if you don't speak, the matter will be over?" The face of the supreme elder was cold, and he walked directly to Gu Ao.
"No!" Gu Ao suddenly raised his head, his face was full of horror: "After you left, did anyone guard the ancient clan tree and the sacrificial tripod?"
"No!" said the supreme elder.
"It's bad, we're trying to lure the tiger out of the mountain. You guys go to the sacrificial cauldron first, and I'll go to the ancient clan tree." Gu Ao said hurriedly.
"Don't even think about ordering us anymore." The Great Elder said.
"It's time, and you're still fussing about this. Don't you have any doubts at all? If it was really me who did it, would I be so obvious? It's obvious that someone wants to sow discord, and then transfer you out to attack those two things." Gu Ao said.
The Great Elder also frowned.
Whoosh!
Gu Ao's body flashed and ran directly outside.
"What should we do?" The Second Great Elder asked.
"You guys go to the sacrificial cauldron first, and then find a few elders to guard it, and the Second Elder and I will go to the Ancient Clan Tree." The Great Elder said.
"Well!" Everyone nodded and left directly.
The Ancient Clan Tree.
When they came to the yard, they found that the Ancient Clan Tree had not changed at all.
Huh!
Gu Ao breathed a sigh of relief.
This is what he is most worried about. The time for the sacrifice is getting closer and closer. If something happens now, it will be terrible.
"Your purpose of changing the topic is useless. Please give me an explanation." Seeing that nothing happened here, the Taishang Elder thought that Gu Ao just changed the topic.
"Let's take a look at the sacrificial cauldron first," Gu Ao said. The Supreme Elder also waved his hand, and three ordinary elders appeared directly in the courtyard.
Not long after Gu Ao and the others walked out, they met other Supreme Elders: "How is it there?"
Those supreme elders did not reply.
"Is something wrong?" asked the Supreme Elder.
"Nothing happened." The other Supreme Elders said. They did not answer Gu Ao's question, but answered the Supreme Elder's question. This made his attitude clear.
These supreme elders are now all going against Gu Ao.
This time it was a total confrontation.
Because Gu Ao had already planned to take action against them.
"Can you speak now? If you still plan to remain silent, then don't blame us. The sacrifice can still be carried out without you." Taishang Elder said.
"I admit, I bribed your people." Gu Ao said.
"That's good." The Supreme Elder's face turned cold, and he directly showed his weapons. The other Supreme Elders also showed their weapons. It was obvious that they were really angry now.
This time, they even planned to go shopping in Guao.
