"Later on, the Sosali chieftain, perhaps regaining a trace of sanity or for so other reason, abandoned the slaughter and entered the Evil Demon Forest alone with the Moonlight Treasure Pearl."
"Hold on." Qin Chuan couldn't help interrupting the Blue Moon Chief Priest, "The Sosali had the Moonlight Treasure Pearl?"
Why hadn't he heard or seen anything like it when he was clearing the instance?
"The rewards from past background instances depend on what currently exists." Guessing Qin Chuan's confusion, the Blue Moon Chief Priest explained, "The Moonlight Treasure Pearl is no longer in the Evil Demon Forest."
"That's why you could not obtain it when you cleared the instance."
"Actually, if not for the passage of too much ti, the Evil Demon Forest should have been an S-rank instance."
"I see." Qin Chuan suddenly understood, "So later you took the Moonlight Treasure Pearl away?"
"Of course." The Blue Moon Chief Priest nodded slightly, "The Moonlight Treasure Pearl is a treasure of our clan, it had to be retrieved."
"The Sosali seed to know this and discarded the Moonlight Treasure Pearl while escaping. We found the Moonlight Treasure Pearl but not him."
"With such a turn of events, the Moonlight Treasure Pearl naturally could no longer be used. It was sealed by our ancestors, and only then did the Spirit Moon Festival co about as a substitute."
"So that's how the Spirit Moon Festival ca about." The Purple Moon Priest revealed a look of sudden realization.
"What happened to the Sosali afterwards?" Qin Chuan continued to inquire.
"Afterward, my strength reached the Mythical Rank, and I beca the new leader of the Moon Spirit Clan in Milian Territory. I personally entered the Evil Demon Forest and finally found him," the Blue Moon Chief Priest sighed lightly, "but he had mutated for too long and I couldn't revert him back to his original form."
"In the end, I could only kill him with my own hands."
After listening to the Blue Moon Chief Priest's account, everyone grew quiet.
"Does this blood-red moon have anything to do with the Moonlight Treasure Pearl?" Lin Yue asked softly.
"No relation." The Blue Moon Chief Priest shook his head slightly, "I have already confird with my ancestors, the Moonlight Treasure Pearl does not have any issues."
"It is still sealed by our ancestors, and it absolutely cannot affect the Spirit Moon Festival."
"Then... could it be related to the concoction from back then?" Qin Chuan spoke gravely, "Not all of the Moon Spirits mutated under the red moon."
"That was the case back then, and it is the sa today."
"The reason why Sosali turned into a giant wolf is not only due to the Red Moon, but also because he had been drinking a certain concoction for a long ti, and that concoction ca from the Half-demon Clan."
"The Red Moon seems more like so kind of catalyst."
"Half-demon?" Beisagra, who had been quiet the whole ti, had a murderous look in her eyes, "So, is all this caused by the Half-demon?"
"Monk has already gone to investigate the common elents among those clan mbers who just mutated." The Purple Moon Priest spoke softly, "We will have the results soon."
She naturally noticed that only a minority within her clan had mutated.
Therefore, after the healing was complete, all the Moon Spirits who participated in the Spirit Moon Festival were temporarily detained.
Monk was questioning them one by one to identify any similarities or differences between them.
Her eyes, like Purple Crystals, also glead with a cold light.
If indeed the Half-demon Clan was scheming behind the scenes, she certainly would not let them off!
"It's not necessarily the Half-demon." Seeing everyone's reaction, the Blue Moon Chief Priest spoke softly, "I investigated the past events afterward."
"The concoction that caused Sosali's mutation was indeed given by the Half-demon."
"But the concoction did not originate from the Half-demon."
"The ingredients to make it involved both Dead Ghosts and Half-demons. At that ti, Heavenly Do Rank only consisted of Moon Spirits, Dead Ghosts, and Half-demons."
Qin Chuan: "..."
"So, are you saying other clans were involved as well?"
"That's one way to understand it." The Blue Moon Chief Priest nodded slightly, then his expression grew a bit more complex, "But such matters are actually quite common in the current Heavenly Do Rank."
"The Clan Wars have not yet begun, it's impossible for the different clans to fight upon sight."
"We cooperate and trade with each other as well."
"Not to ntion, many of the concoctions I make also require materials from other clans."
"So, a concoction involving many clans is not out of the ordinary." The Blue Moon Chief Priest shook his head helplessly, "If you were to say this is soone's plot, perhaps both clans were involved."
The group exchanged looks.
It seed they could only wait for Monk to get so results.
"We've got it."
Before long, Monk hurried over to the group, his expression quite unpleasant.
"Those who mutated had all gone into the sa tavern before participating in the Spirit Moon Festival, while those who hadn't mutated had not."
"Tavern?" Everyone's faces showed a change.
They had just ntioned that the mutation might have been caused by a certain concoction, and now they had such a clue.
Could it be possible that a malevolent individual had mixed a concoction into the beverages intended for the Moon Spirits?
"Where is that tavern?!"
The Purple Moon Priest shot up, her eyes carrying a stern murderous intent.
"Um..." Monk's face showed a bit of embarrassnt, "By the ti our people got there, the tavern had already been cleared out."
The group fell silent.
This essentially confird that the tavern was problematic.
"Let's investigate." The Blue Moon Chief Priest said softly, "Opening a tavern will always leave so traces."
"Besides, we also need to investigate the cause of the Red Moon."
"This peculiar phenonon that clearly targets our Moon Spirit Clan must be clarified."
"My ti of descent is limited, Mahiya, take care of these two matters."
"Yes!" The Purple Moon Priest spoke soberly.
After instructing the Purple Moon Priest, the Blue Moon Chief Priest turned to Qin Chuan and Lin Yue with a smile, "I'm truly sorry that this incident has involved the two of you."
"No problem." Qin Chuan shook his head slightly, "To understand so historical secrets from five thousand years ago and resolve many of my doubts is indeed a gain."
