King of Creation Chapter 1981 - 1966: Tu Jinggao’s Self-Rescue

In the Qingqiu Tomb, Clan Leader Tu Zheng and Supreme Third Elder Tu Che sat facing each other, their faces marked with indescribable surprise and helplessness!

But compared to Tu Che’s shock, Clan Leader Tu Zheng’s face had more helplessness and anger!

This anger brewed for just fifteen minutes before Clan Leader Tu Zheng slammed the table and shouted angrily, "Supreme Elder, please capture that rebellious son Jinggao for me!"

Both Tu Che and Clan Leader Tu Zheng were smart people. After a brief thought, they roughly figured out where the problem lay.

In the Fox Clan’s Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation, besides the seven-colored nine-tailed jade fox in his hand, which could fully control Qingqiu Tomb, there was also a five-colored nine-tailed jade fox that could activate the formation.

Generally, this five-colored nine-tailed jade fox with limited functionality would be placed in the care of an elder or the Supreme Elder staying at Tu Mountain.

However, Tu Zheng handed this five-colored nine-tailed jade fox to his eldest son Tu Jinggao, which had another purpose: it could create the Passing Formation Talisman for the Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation.

Naturally, they locked the suspicion on Grand Young Master Tu Jinggao.

Even Supreme Third Elder Tu Che thought so, though it hadn’t been explicitly stated before.

"Clan Leader, don’t be angry. This might not be the Grand Young Master’s doing. There’s no reason for him to act like this," Tu Che advised.

Tu Zheng was still not over his anger, "Without the Passing Formation Talisman, how could Ye Zhen and his group have vanished into thin air? The Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation is known to the Supreme Elder. Even a Creation God couldn’t enter or leave freely!

If not this rebellious son, then who else could it be!"

"Supreme Elder, hurry..."

At this point, Clan Leader Tu Zheng suddenly stomped his foot in anger, "Look at me, Hu Qingtong and Ye Zhen have already left Tu Mountain, what am I waiting for! I will personally interrogate this rebellious son!"

Moments later, two streaks of light fell straight into the courtyard of Grand Young Master Tu Jinggao within the Clan Leader’s residence.

Tu Fu, who was guarding Tu Jinggao, sensed them early and came to greet, only to find it was the Clan Leader and the Supreme Third Elder.

Just as he was about to salute, he saw Clan Leader Tu Zheng with an angry face, dart past him, and kick Grand Young Master Tu Jinggao in the chest.

"Rebellious son, look at the good you’ve done! I valued you so much, yet you dare betray the interests of our Qingqiu Fox Clan?" Tu Zheng pointed at Tu Jinggao with a trembling hand, scolding him angrily.

All his plans revolved around Hu Qingtong, and now Hu Qingtong’s sudden disappearance not only rendered his plans futile but also brought enormous danger to the Fox Clan.

There was the Giant Spirit’s Great Saint, backed by the Immortal Bear King, guarding on one side, and outside the Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation were two Monkey Clan Great Saints under the command of the Wind-Thunder Ancient Monkey King, who wouldn’t be easy to deal with.

At this moment, Tu Zheng could hardly resist killing this rebellious son Tu Jinggao!

Thud!

Tu Zheng’s kick showed no mercy, and amidst the cracking of bones, Tu Jinggao’s body flew high, crashing through three walls in succession before landing, spitting blood along the way.

Such was Tu Zheng’s anger!

Tu Jinggao himself was bewildered by the sudden kick, but he was not a fool, having grown up in the Fox Clan and been taught by his father Tu Zheng for so long.

On the contrary, he was incredibly intelligent.

For the whole night and half a day, Tu Jinggao hadn’t slept, thinking deeply about the potential scenarios and consequences of this incident.

After pondering overnight, he had a bit of an idea.

As Tu Zheng’s second angry kick came at him, Tu Jinggao struggled to get up, dropped to his knees, and knocked his head repeatedly against the ground like a pestle.

"Honorable father, I don’t know what I’ve done wrong, please enlighten me! If I’ve truly done something to disgrace the family and betray the Fox Clan, I would rather die before you without complaint!"

Tu Jinggao’s voice was akin to a bitter wail, his expression resolute, blood covering his forehead from repeated knocks. This scene made even Tu Che hesitate, let alone the Clan Leader Tu Zheng.

Could he really have wronged his son?

Honestly, although his son lacked decisiveness in his actions, he probably wouldn’t dare betray the Fox Clan.

At this, Tu Zheng’s expression darkened, "Ye Zhen and his group disappeared from within Tu Mountain. How did they pass through the Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation? How do you explain that?"

"Only you and I can create the Passing Formation Talisman for the Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation."

"What?"

"That guy Ye Zhen actually escaped? How is that possible?"

"Our Fox Clan’s Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation..."

If Ye Zhen were here, he would certainly admire Grand Young Master Tu Jinggao’s acting skills, definitely of an Oscar-worthy level, and of the highest caliber!

However, Tu Jinggao’s father Tu Zheng, this Old Fox, was not someone who could be deceived merely by acting.

He continued to stare coldly at Tu Jinggao, indicating that without an explanation, he would be dealt with immediately.

"Honorable father!" Grand Young Master Tu Jinggao touched his forehead to the ground again, saying bitterly, "I swear by my Innate Divine Soul, even by our Fox Clan’s Ancestor Spirit, I would never betray our Fox Clan!

Please believe me, father!"

Clan Leader Tu Zheng did not speak, rather snorted coldly, embodying disbelief.

"Keep this nonsense for when you’re in Qingqiu Absolute Prison, reflecting on your actions!"

"Tu Fu!" Tu Zheng called out in a deep voice.

"Here!"

"Confiscate all the tokens and talismans of this rebellious son, then lock him in Qingqiu Absolute Prison, and administer a hundred Dragon Whips daily until he confesses!" Tu Zheng’s voice was chillingly cold.

Tu Jinggao’s face was filled with terror, "Father, it really wasn’t me, I truly didn’t do it!"

"Grand Young Master, cooperate a bit, to avoid..."

Tu Fu advised with a wry smile, but Tu Jinggao continued to struggle fiercely, refusing to comply, which made Tu Fu’s expression turn cold, as he apologized and exerted force, pulling Tu Jinggao’s arms behind his back, binding him all over with spiritual power shackles, effectively controlling him.

"Take him away!" Tu Zheng waved dismissively, his eyes full of disgust.

"Yes!"

Just as Tu Fu was about to lead Tu Jinggao away, Grand Young Master Tu Jinggao suddenly shouted loudly, "Honorable father, I understand, I know how that thief Ye Zhen passed through the Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Spirit Formation."

"What is this, you’ve thought it through, ready to confess?" Tu Zheng sneered sharply, "Imagine, me, Tu Zheng, a hero for a lifetime, raising such a scoundrel as you!"

"No, father!"

Tu Jinggao protested his innocence, "Father, the Ninth Elder, the Ninth Elder also has a Passing Formation Talisman for the Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation!"

"The Ninth Elder?"

Tu Che and Tu Zheng both showed suspicion, "Hu Buding? Explain yourself."

"Honorable father, the Ninth Elder has been missing with no news, think about how the Ninth Elder disappeared!" Tu Jinggao hinted.

"How did the Ninth Elder disappear?"

Tu Che and Tu Zheng, both smart men, needed no more than Tu Jinggao’s hint to instantly recall several useful clues.

Hu Buding kidnapped Chi Ling’er.

Then Hu Buding’s sons, grandsons, daughters, and grandchildren also mysteriously disappeared on the same day!

Afterwards, Hu Buding disappeared, and Chi Ling’er was rescued.

At the thought of this, Tu Zheng and Tu Che’s faces changed drastically, "You’re saying Hu Buding was killed by Ye Zhen?"

"Honorable father, that Ye Zhen, if he can kill the Bear Clan Great Saint Xiong Kaihou in one strike, then he might very well kill Ninth Elder Hu Buding!"

"Otherwise, Elder Hu wouldn’t have gone missing for so long without any news; this is probably the only explanation!"

"If that’s the case..."

Tu Zheng and Tu Che looked at each other in shock!
