"who I am!"
Jiang Yuan was taken aback. He was clearly a little embarrassed to be standing there. The fact that the other party had come with such a fierce attitude already revealed the old man's identity. This old man was the spirit of the Nine Provinces Cauldron, and the Nine Provinces Cauldron itself was "borrowed" from him by the Lord of War. He had no reason to interfere in the struggle for the Nine Provinces Cauldron.
"Since you are in the tomb of the Lord of War, you must be a descendant of the Jiuli people! Since you are a descendant of a sinner, why don't you quickly submit to execution and obediently offer up the Nine Provinces Cauldron!"
The young man with short, fiery red hair spoke with an air of arrogance, and his words were full of disparaging remarks about Jiang Yuan.
Hearing the tense exchange between the two sides, the cauldron spirit, who was about to speak, stopped and watched them with great interest.
The battlefield of the fallen gods has passed. Now that we have arrived at the final battlefield, the mission carried by the Nine Provinces Cauldron must continue.
"To see who are the truly remarkable figures, look to the present! I want to see if the final battlefield, which countless sages sacrificed their lives for, was truly worth it!"
The spirit of the cauldron simply disappeared, leaving only a palm-sized fragment of the Nine Provinces Cauldron in the entire space.
Ding Ling's actions immediately aroused envy among those people, including the Holy Spirit Clan.
"Let me be executed, let me obediently offer up the Nine Provinces Cauldron!" Jiang Yuan's tone was icy. The fragment of the Nine Provinces Cauldron was closest to him, so he reached out and grasped it directly in his palm. His wound, which had not yet fully healed, came into contact with the Nine Provinces Cauldron again, and strands of blood seemed to have a mind of their own as they seeped into the Nine Provinces Cauldron.
"Descendant of a sinner, you're courting death!" Suirenyi couldn't contain his anger at all. His temper was as fiery as his hair. He grabbed a stick and swung it down.
"Armor tattoo!"
With a flash of dark golden light, Jiang Yuan charged towards Suirenyi like a cannonball. When the two clashed, they were evenly matched, neither able to gain the upper hand.
Jiang Yuan landed back on the ground, his sharp gaze fixed on Suirenyi, before he retorted sharply, "You dare to order me around?"
"You're courting death!" Suirenyi gripped the flaming staff in his hand, ready to unleash another killing move.
"Suirenyi, don't forget the purpose of our journey!"
Another person from the lineage of the Divine Emperor stepped forward; it was Ji Tian of the Shennong clan, who had previously introduced himself.
Suirenyi's eyes flickered, and his last burst of anger ended with a heavy snort.
“Brother, I don’t care about your background, but there’s one thing I want you to understand! The Nine Provinces Cauldron belongs to my clan. It has been lost for thousands of years and we have been searching for it. So I hope you can return it to my clan. In return, my clan will give you a sufficient reward!” Ji Tian’s expression was calm, but deep in his eyes he still carried arrogance, the instinctive aura of someone who had long been in a position of power.
"I don't really like talking to people with my head tilted back!" Jiang Yuan said calmly.
The people from the Divine Emperor lineage acted arrogantly from the moment they arrived. For example, regarding their positions, Jiang Yuan was standing on the ground, while the group of people flew around him in mid-air, which made him very unhappy!
Ji Tian's index finger trembled, but the mission he was on made him calm down. He landed directly on the ruins of the destroyed weapon-refining pavilion.
"Everyone, get down!" Ji Tian shouted with a wicked smile.
However, his words had no effect; apart from him landing, the others remained motionless.
"What, one playing the good cop and a dozen playing the bad cop, trying to scare me!" Jiang Yuan smiled as he played with the fragment of the Nine Provinces Cauldron in his hand, showing no panic in the face of the overwhelming aura of dozens of people.
“Descendants of sinners, Ji Tian’s good temper doesn’t mean ours is good too! Are you planning to return the Nine Provinces Cauldron yourself, or do you want us to kill you and then we’ll take it back?” A handsome young man’s eyes were filled with unruliness.
"Don't waste your breath on him. The ultra-long-distance teleportation portal can only last for a quarter of an hour. If it's too late, it will close directly. If you get trapped in the Lord of Soldiers' territory, you won't have a good time!" Suirenyi sneered. He had already decided to take drastic measures against Jiang Yuan.
To reclaim what belongs to you, robbery is undoubtedly the most effective and convenient method; in this world, might makes right.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan indeed discovered a crack in the void behind the group of people. He figured they must have relied on some extraordinary power to arrive at the Tomb of the Lord of Soldiers so quickly, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to find it in just a few minutes.
"You really won't give it to me?" Ji Tian turned his head and looked at Jiang Yuan with a faint smile.
"I've said it before, I don't like talking to people with my head tilted back!"
Jiang Yuan unleashed his suppressed power, and a pair of exquisite wings of light unfolded from behind him. "Since you all like to look down on others, I don't mind experiencing your hobby!"
"Divine Wings - Fight!"
With the word "fight" surging forth, Jiang Yuan's fighting spirit soared to the heavens, and his figure instantly reached a height of tens of meters.
"This kind of dialogue is barely starting to feel right!" Jiang Yuan teased the dozens of people.
“Descendants of sinners! Back in the day, even the Jiuli disciples during your Warlord's heyday would avoid our Divine Emperor lineage. Now that the Jiuli have become remnants of the past, how dare you be so arrogant!” The woman from Ruoshui Clan was also disgusted by Jiang Yuan’s behavior.
In the memories of the Divine Emperor lineage, everyone else treated them with utmost respect. Yet now, there was this reckless individual who dared to overshadow them. Such a challenge to authority was something they could not tolerate.
Just as the Divine Emperor's lineage was completely enraged, Ji Tian on the ground pressed his palm down, and asked without any joy or sorrow, "Now that we're standing high enough, shouldn't we return the Nine Provinces Cauldrons to us?"
"Yes, just as you said, returning things to their rightful owners is the natural order!"
Jiang Yuan nodded, then his tone changed, "But what will you offer in exchange? You know, I've gone to great lengths to find this Nine Provinces Cauldron."
