Chapter 1141: Chapter 1138: I Won’t Pursue This Matter
“Who permitted you to kill each other within the Black and White Academy?”
A cold voice arose, accompanied by four figures descending upon the location.
Leading them was a youth-like figure, yet streaked with grey at the temples, eyes filled with the weight of years, clearly not young.
On either side were two elders in splendid attire, their presence vigorous and imposing.
Behind them walked a young man in white, handsome and graceful, though a shadow lurked beneath his gaze.
This young man in white was none other than Ji Zifan, who Ye Xuan had nearly scared witless before.
And the youth with the greying temples was Ji Zifan’s father, Elder Ji Wenyan of the Ji Family, also the elder brother of the family’s Saint Master.
The other two elders were from the Floating Mountain, the upright and powerful elder on the left named Yang Lin, known as the Supreme Demon Slayer.
The other elder, slightly hunchbacked yet bursting with presence, named Qi Chengzi.
Their sudden arrival interrupted the fight between Zhou Youwei and Zhu Xiuxiu.
“Huh?” Zhu Xiuxiu’s charming face turned frosty, her eyes flashed with irritation.
These people were so bothersome!
“Greetings to the three Elders.”
Elder Xu stepped forward and bowed.
Although all were elders, in the Floating Mountain, elders still had ranks.
At the very least, Elder Xu could not compare at all to Ji Wenyan, the Supreme Demon Slayer, or Qi Chengzi.
After all, these three men—all Supremes!
That’s enough.
“Elder Xu, Black and White Academy strictly forbids disciple conflicts, how do you fulfill your role as elder?” Qi Chengzi looked calmly at Elder Xu, speaking slowly.
Elder Xu’s face paled slightly, but dared not retort, respectfully saying, “I am guilty, please punish me, Elders.”
“This has nothing to do with Elder Xu.”
At this time, Ji Ziqing stepped forward, then bowed, saying, “Ziqing pays respects to the two Elders, pays respects to Uncle.”
She first paid respects to the Supreme Demon Slayer Yang Lin and Qi Chengzi, then saluted Ji Wenyan.
Ji Wenyan was indeed Ji Ziqing’s uncle.
Because Ji Ziqing’s father was the Saint Master of the Ji Family at Floating Mountain.
And Ji Wenyan, well, he was the elder brother of the Saint Master of the Ji Family at Floating Mountain.
Thus was their connection.
“Ziqing, what do you intend?” Ji Wenyan frowned slightly and asked.
“To report to Uncle, it unfolded this way…” Ji Ziqing narrated the events to Ji Wenyan, emphasizing the identities of Zhou Youwei and Zhu Xiuxiu.
Upon learning the identities of Zhou Youwei and Zhu Xiuxiu, the Supreme Demon Slayer and Qi Chengzi were slightly surprised.
Ji Wenyan squinted briefly, then said, “Regardless, it is forbidden to duel privately within Floating Mountain, you all should withdraw.”
“Forget it, Zhou Youwei, we’ll fight next time.” Seeing the fight was off, Zhu Xiuxiu did not fuss but cupped her hands to Zhou Youwei, saying, “Next time, let’s have a proper battle.”
Zhou Youwei didn’t reply, but nodded lightly, signaling agreement, then retreated to Ye Xuan’s side.
“Ziqing, Uncle has something to ask you.”
Ji Wenyan saw both Zhu Xiuxiu and Zhou Youwei step back, and spoke again, “Uncle heard you brought outsiders into Floating Mountain, even killed your brother’s guards, is this true?”
Ji Ziqing felt a chill in her heart, thinking they finally came, while outwardly maintaining calm, saying, “Brother Zifan invited us, then acted first, thus resulting in this incident.”
The disciples present at the Black and White Academy appeared confused, unaware of the matter.
However, they were astonished.
Outsiders entered Floating Mountain, killed Ji Zifan’s guards?
This was indeed a significant event.
Ji Wenyan coldly snorted, “So you admit to bringing outsiders into Floating Mountain then?”
Ji Ziqing gritted her teeth, nodding, “Yes.”
“Where are the Ji Family’s Divine Guards?”
Ji Wenyan said solemnly.
Boom——
In the next moment, ripples appeared in the void, and four Divine Guards of the Ji Family, clad in black armor, carrying long sabers, and holding halberds, emerged, kneeling on one knee.
“Ji Ziqing violated the rules of our Ji Family at Floating Mountain, imprison her in the Heavenly Prison, wait for the Saint Master’s return, and decide her fate.”
Ji Wenyan waved his wide sleeve.
“As ordered.”
The four Ji Family Divine Guards rose and approached Ji Ziqing, speaking softly, “Miss Ziqing, forgive us.”
Ji Ziqing’s face turned pale, looking up at her own uncle, saying in a deep voice, “Their arrival was sanctioned by the Saint Master.”
The four Ji Family Divine Guards paused.
Ji Wenyan smiled faintly, “Since the Saint Master permitted it, why have I not received any word?”
“Seize her!”
Seeing this, the four Ji Family Divine Guards hesitated momentarily, then reluctantly moved on Ji Ziqing.
“Hold on.”
At this moment, an abrupt voice arose.
Everyone turned towards the sound, seeing the speaker was Ye Xuan.
Ji Wenyan looked coldly at Ye Xuan, speaking lightly, “You must be the outsider, do you confess yourself, or shall I act?”
“Want to stand up for your own son, then just say so, why make it all fancy?”
Qiankun Ancestor, beside him, curled his lip disdainfully.
These words instantly surprised the disciples of Floating Mountain present.
Ji Wenyan, the Supreme Demon Slayer, Zhifan Supreme were all here in the arena, yet this guy dared to speak like this, where did his confidence come from?
Ji Zifan, who was behind Ji Wenyan, turned particularly unsightly at these words.
Who was Ji Zifan?
Zend Floating’s renowned genius, tainted with the supreme demonness of the “Zhou Yi Book,” despite being fake, Ji Zifan took it seriously himself.
He had been pampered all along, never so belittled before!
Indeed, it was intolerable.
Ji Zifan spoke in a deep voice, “I invited everyone to my villa out of kindness, yet Ye Xuan attacked sneakily and had his people kill my guards, what logic is this?”
Upon hearing this, the audience finally understood.
All along, Ji Zifan seemed to have been frightened by the people behind Ye Xuan too, hence bringing out his own father.
Thinking this way, those behind Ye Xuan were not to be trifled with…
The crowd all showed an expression of watching a spectacle.
These individuals hailed from Daozhou’s various major powers, exceptional themselves, naturally unafraid.
Such a rare spectacle, a must-watch.
Those who knew Ye Xuan, Jiang Changbei, the Saint Heir of Heavenly Mansion, and Xiao Rui, the Holy Daughter of Tiantong, were also quite intrigued.
Though they knew Ye Xuan, they did not know him well.
This guy dared to make mischief at Floating Mountain, truly unexpected.
“It sounds unreasonable indeed.”
Ye Xuan smiled slightly, speaking softly, “But I’m in a good mood today, not inclined to kill, if you all get lost, I’ll let it slide.”
These words left the entire audience dumbfounded.
???
What’s going on?
They were three Supremes, come now.
You let it slide?
Even Zhu Xiuxiu couldn’t help but glance sideways at Ye Xuan.
This Ye Xuan, she knew.
He once swept through East Desolate.
However, Floating Mountain was unlike those overlords in East Desolate, saying something like this was a bit exaggerated.
