Hundreds of millions of tribesmen surrounded Ji Gulan's palace. Ji Lin, who was inside the palace, had a solemn expression on his face.

His followers were so frightened by the scene before them that their legs went limp. It’s not that they were timid, but they had been in high positions for a long time and had long been accustomed to the feeling of being high and mighty and bossy. As high-ranking members of the Ji family, when had they ever faced such a scene?

"Third Elder, what should we do? Why don't we just admit defeat? Second Elder is right, what our Ji family needs now is unity, not internal friction!" said a white-haired old man with a worried look on his face.

Ji Lin's face suddenly changed when he heard that. He turned around abruptly and slapped out with his palm, hitting the white-haired old man hard. The old man was instantly scared to death.

"Who else wants to join Ji Yun?" Ji Lin looked at everyone with a gloomy face.

The Ji Yun that Ji Lin mentioned was naturally the second elder. Under the current circumstances, there was no need for him to be polite to Ji Yun anymore.

Upon seeing this, everyone quickly shut their mouths and remained silent.

"Ji Lin's move was undoubtedly well prepared. He must have started operating when the head of the family was in office. He formed a clique within the family for personal gain. This is a crime of treason! As children of the Ji family, how can we allow such a traitor to bring chaos to the Ji family?" Ji Lin's face was full of righteousness. "He Ji Lin is just relying on the advantage of numbers. I have already sent a message to several nearby sects affiliated with the Ji family to come and suppress the rebellion. As long as we hold on and wait for the reinforcements to arrive, we will definitely annihilate Ji Yun and other treasonous criminals!"

An elder stood up and agreed, "The Third Elder is right. If we let a treacherous person like Ji Yun take charge of the Ji family, how can we face our ancestors in the underworld?"

However, another elder said hesitantly: "But the clan rules clearly stipulate that external forces are not allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of the Ji family..."

Ji Lin snorted coldly and interrupted the elder: "Fifth Elder, you are really old and confused. Now that our clan is facing a life-and-death crisis, how can we care about those old rules? We must quell the civil strife as soon as possible and restore the stability and prosperity of the Ji family. Since those sects are attached to our Ji family, they should naturally be used by us. As long as we can survive this crisis, the future of the Ji family will be even more brilliant!"

Everyone fell silent after hearing this. There was nothing they could do. Things had come to this point and everyone knew there was no way out.

Having lived to such an old age, they naturally understand that the struggle for power has always been cruel. If they surrender now, they probably won't end up well.

A cultivator standing next to Ji Yun became impatient and said to Ji Yun, "Second Elder, go ahead and stop talking nonsense with them."

This person is the fourth elder of the Ji family and is considered the second most important person on Ji Yun's side.

Ji Yun sighed heavily upon hearing this, with a look of sorrow on his face: "Alas! It seems that my Ji family is doomed to fail!"

After sighing for a while, he showed determination and issued an order to the hundreds of millions of Ji family members with a firm and powerful voice: "For the better future of our Ji family, and for the Ji family to regain its new life, kill! Don't spare any of them!"

When the Ji family members heard this, a trace of determination flashed in their eyes. They shouted in unison: "For the Ji family!" The sound shook the earth and was filled with strong murderous intent. Then, they rushed to the palace below like a tide, ready to fight a life-and-death battle with the enemy.

Seeing this, Ji Lin said in a deep voice: "Everyone, for the future of the Ji family, let's form a formation!"

As he finished speaking, the followers behind him flew up and stood in different positions, forming a complex formation. This formation was the Ji family's secret defense formation, which could be deployed by multiple people, and had amazing defense power. Although Ji Lin's followers were few in number, they were all cultivators at the level of Ji family elders, so even in the face of the impact of hundreds of millions of Ji family disciples, they were confident that they could resist this formation for a while.

While everyone was setting up the formation, Ji Lin accidentally glanced at the seat at the top of the palace and saw Ji Gulan still sitting there. He couldn't help but frown and said, "Eighth Elder, why are you still standing there? Come over and help!"

Ji Gulan was unmoved by this and said jokingly, "You two both claim that the other is a sinner of the Ji family and a traitor. You both claim to be setting the record straight. I don't know which side to help at this moment."

Hearing Ji Gulan's sarcastic tone, Ji Lin's face immediately darkened and he said in a cold voice: "Ji Yun has evil ambitions and intends to overthrow the Ji family. As children of the Ji family, we have the responsibility and obligation to fight to the end."

Ji Gulan sneered when he heard this: "Why do you have to speak so high-soundingly? In the end, you are just talking for your own power and interests."

"Ji Gulan, don't play dumb here! We are in such danger today just to help you get justice. Is this your attitude? Do you think you can get away with it if you turn against us now?" an elder shouted sternly.

"Escape? I never thought about getting away." Ji Gulan said lightly.

"Damn it, Third Elder, I think this Ji Gulan is most likely in cahoots with Ji Yun. Ji Yun and she are the ones who set up this situation today!"

"That's right! To fight against foreign enemies, we must first stabilize the country. In order to prevent Ji Gulan and others from doing bad things to us, Second Elder, I suggest that we should get rid of her first."

Several elders said with a grim look on their faces.

Ji Lin nodded slightly after hearing this: "Quick battle, kill her and come back to defend the formation!"

After Ji Lin finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to Ji Gulan and focused on dealing with the upcoming attack.

As the eighth elder of the Ji family, Ji Gulan's strength should not be underestimated. Originally, in this situation where they were already at a disadvantage, Ji Gulan should be the one he tried his best to win over, but now there was no time to talk nonsense with Ji Gulan, and Ji Gulan's attitude also made him dare not gamble, because even if Ji Gulan verbally agreed to help them resist the enemy, who knew if he was sincere? If he attacked them from behind, it would be more trouble than gain.

Faced with a powerful enemy, he must eliminate Ji Gulan, a potential threat, as soon as possible.

So, Ji Lin directly sent five elder-level monks to besiege Ji Gulan, intending to kill him with one blow.

However, what is strange is that even when facing such a desperate situation, Ji Gulan still has a calm expression, as if she does not take them seriously at all.

Seeing this, several people couldn't help but feel uneasy, and they began to wonder if Ji Gulan had any other tricks up his sleeve.

However, what they didn't know was that Ji Gulan had no backup plan at all. The reason why she was so calm was that she had already put life and death aside, or it could be said that she was seeking death!

Now that her mission has been completed, death is the easiest way to escape. She knows that Li Mu will definitely resurrect her in Lingxiao Jianmu.

If not, with her more than 10 trillion years of undercover experience, how could she make such a low-level mistake?
