Boom!
Their momentum clashed, yet neither could gain the upper hand.
Ji Lan became even more smug, raising his head high with disdain in his eyes.
"I, Ji Lan, will reclaim the honor that the Ji clan has lost! Break it!"
With a loud bang, golden light burst forth, simultaneously activating the hidden formations of the Ji Clan, causing the entire Ji Clan ancestral island to radiate countless rays of light.
A majestic figure holding a golden longsword slowly emerged from the light.
The figure was surrounded by an incomparably holy radiance, with the sun, moon, and stars constantly shining.
"That is... the manifestation of the ancestral spirits!"
Ji Chang, the Grand Elder of the Ji Clan, cried out in horror.
Under the manifestation of the ancestral spirit, Ji Lan's power surged once again, completely overwhelming Chi Qiang.
boom!
With a startling explosion, Chi Qiang took a step back.
Ji Lan did not pursue, but instead waved his sleeve, withdrawing his imposing aura. He pointed at Chi Qiang and said coldly, "Now... get lost!"
Chi Qiang narrowed his eyes, a sinister smile appearing on his lips.
"Interesting, Ji Lan, is it? I look forward to the century-long war!"
"Rest assured, on this century-old battlefield, I, Ji Lan, will slay you!"
Ji Lan pointed.
All the Ji people felt their blood boiling and their faces showed excitement.
"Good, this is the strength and demeanor that our Ji clan disciples should have!"
"The Heavenly Maiden Ji Xuan is truly disappointing. If it weren't for Brother Ji Lan standing up for us, our Ji clan would have lost all face today!"
"Yes, that's why the Grand Elder has wasted so many resources on Ji Xuan all these years. He should have given them to Brother Ji Lan instead!"
"As long as Brother Ji Lan can defeat the Chi Clan on the battlefield of the century, the Ji Clan will surely rise again!"
"Brother Ji Lan, you are the true heir of our Ji clan!"
"..."
Amidst cheers, Ji Lan stood tall and proud, extremely pleased with herself.
However, the celestial maiden Ji Xuan trembled, her face shook, and her lips became even paler.
For the first time, despair welled up in her heart.
The Chi tribe glanced at Ji Xuan, then waved his hand.
"Walk!"
Under his leadership, the entire Chi tribe departed and flew away into the sky.
After the Chi tribe left.
Ji Yun, the second elder of the Ji clan, said smugly, "Elder, without Ji Lan today, our Ji clan would be destroyed. Do you still insist on making Ji Xuan the Heavenly Maiden?"
Although Elder Ji Chang was reluctant, he had no choice but to speak up for the sake of the Ji clan's future.
"As the Grand Elder of the Ji Clan, I hereby declare the abolition of the title of Heavenly Maiden Ji Xuan. Now the Ji Clan has no Heavenly Maiden, only the Heavenly Son Ji Lan. The Xuanyuan Immortal Sword Inheritance Ceremony will be held in three days!"
After saying this, the Grand Elder sighed and turned to leave.
In an instant, all the Ji clan members surrounded Ji Lan.
"Brother Ji Lan, you are really amazing! I never expected your talent to completely surpass Ji Xuan's!"
"Yes, how exactly do you cultivate? Could you please give me some pointers, my cousin?"
"Pah! What kind of status does Brother Ji Lan have? How could he possibly give you pointers? He needs to conserve his energy and prepare to inherit the Xuanyuan Immortal Sword. With the sword, defeating the Chi Clan will be a piece of cake!"
"Yes, yes, Brother Ji Lan, are you tired? Let me give you a massage!"
"..."
She ignored Ji Xuan completely. At this moment, she was like an invisible person, standing aside, looking at everything she once possessed.
A moment later, Ji Xuan smiled.
She's come to terms with it.
The world is ruthless; when you have power, everyone will revolve around you.
When you lack strength, the world is more ruthless than anyone else.
Ji Xuan smiled bitterly, turned around, and walked towards the door.
She needs to be alone right now.
...
The night was deep, and the wind was cold.
On the cliff, a beautiful woman stands.
Ji Xuan stretched out her long legs, feeling the coldness of the bluestone.
She discovered this place by chance; it was a secluded spot rarely visited by people.
It can block out all the light, allowing you to enter the darkness.
Whenever Ji Xuan has something on her mind, she sits here all night and then forgets everything.
But today, she sat for a long time, her mind still in turmoil.
The main problem was what happened today, which left her completely bewildered and unsure how to return to the Ji clan.
The Heavenly Maiden Ji Xuan!
Once a dazzling genius who was high above everyone else.
Overnight, he fell to the mortal realm.
That kind of blow is something most people can't endure.
Ji Xuan wrapped her arms around her knees, burying her head in them, her eyes filled with confusion and helplessness.
Unbeknownst to her, two pairs of eyes were watching her at that moment.
"Brother, I just got back and witnessed such a spectacular show. It's quite a surprise!"
Tang Xuan joked.
The Ji clan elder's face turned red, and he gritted his teeth.
"That bastard Chief Chi dared to come and provoke me while I was away. I won't let him get away with this!"
It turned out that the two of them had arrived at the Ji clan early in the morning and were about to enter when they saw the Chi clan chief leading his men in.
Tang Xuan and Chief Ji immediately decided to stop and assess the situation.
Then I saw what had happened earlier.
"I never expected that Ji Lan would actually fuse with immortal energy. It's beyond my expectations. It's truly a blessing from our ancestors. I just feel sorry for my granddaughter!"
"But it's alright, Ji Xuan isn't the type to overthink things. It doesn't matter who the heir is, she can be your concubine!"
Tang Xuan was speechless. This old guy was not serious at all.
He would have liked to give Ji Xuan to him if there was even the slightest chance.
He didn't see that Yaoyue behind him frowned almost imperceptibly.
She felt threatened.
After all, she also longed to merge with Tang Xuan.
