Chapter 105: The God King Shocks the World, the Sky Devouring Demon Gai Appears
In the end, the negotiations between the two sides were on the verge of "breaking down" several times before the "compensation" issue was finalized.
The Ji family paid the price of seven Northern Territory cities for this operation, as well as millions of kilograms of energy, and a large number of spiritual medicines and materials, which was a huge loss.
In addition, he also assured many forces that the older generation of strong men would no longer interfere in the struggle between the younger generation, otherwise the whole world would condemn them.
"Everyone, my Ji family has already paid the price this time, so we can finally leave, right?"
Ji Yuntian's face had turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He wanted to fight to the death several times, but the opponent always gave in at the right time, leaving him with no way to use his strength.
None of these old guys are good!
"I hope the Ji family can remember today's lesson. 'Compensation' is not the goal. The key is to sound the alarm and not repeat the same mistake!"
King Qing Jiao's expression was serious when he said this, but the smile and joy in his eyes could not be concealed no matter what.
"Brother Jiao is absolutely right. I hope the Ji family can correct their mistakes and not make the same mistake again!"
"If the Ji family commits the same offense again, we will fight to the death!"
The powerful men from other forces had clearly been smiling with joy for a long time, but at this moment they all pretended to be cold and stern, agreeing with what King Qing Jiao said.
In fact, although the Ji family paid a lot of compensation, after dividing it among so many forces, no single family would gain much.
They all felt particularly proud just because they could humiliate the arrogant Ji family, so they were so beaming with joy.
"it is good!"
Even though Ji Yuntian was quite shrewd, facing the situation where he had to pay a huge sum of money and still be taught a lesson, he was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. He agreed with a dark face and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute."
But at this moment, Jiang Yun, who had been smiling since the two sides began negotiations, suddenly spoke calmly.
Ji Yuntian's dark face flashed with anger, but he managed to suppress it with great difficulty and said in a deep voice, "Senior, do you have any other advice?"
In fact, the reason why he admitted defeat so decisively this time was because of the Jiang family, no other reason.
The Jiang family and the Ji family are both ancient families with similar backgrounds. Since they have made it clear that they want to get involved in this matter, the nature of the whole thing has changed.
It is no longer a matter of the Ji family rebuilding its own prestige, but a confrontation between the Ji family and the people of the world, including other ancient families.
No matter how powerful the Ji family is, they can't be so arrogant.
But Ji Yuntian couldn't figure out one thing - after all, everyone belonged to the same ancient family, and their fundamental interests should be the same. They couldn't possibly hope that other holy places and major sects without imperial weapons would suppress themselves. So why would they stand against the Ji family today and even use the ultimate imperial weapon?
"Master Ji, please be patient. I just have something to announce."
Jiang Yun smiled slightly and did not answer Ji Yuntian directly. Instead, he leaned over and shouted downwards.
"Young friend Chai, please come forward."
Chai Xin was watching the fun with great interest below. He was suddenly called out and was a little surprised. Then his eyes lit up and he had already guessed something.
Except for King Qing Jiao, Deng Hong, and Fairy Caiyun, the powerful people from other forces also looked confused.
Jiang Yun seems to have nothing to do with Chai Xin, so why is he pushed to the forefront in such an occasion?
Many powerful people with sharp minds seemed to be thinking about it, but more people were confused.
"Senior summoned me, what is the purpose?"
Chai Xin jumped into the arena and bowed to everyone. Although he knew everything in his heart, he still cooperated with the acting.
Jiang Yun smiled and nodded, then scanned the entire audience, and finally pointed at Chai Xin and said loudly: "Chai Xin is the direct disciple of our Jiang family's Godly King ancestor, and he once saved the ancestor from distress. His status is equal to that of the core disciples of the Jiang family!"
"The King of God has a word for me to tell all sides—"
"From now on, everyone of the same generation can fight Chai Xin, regardless of life or death; however, if someone does not follow the rules, don't blame this old man for bullying the weak!"
The loud voice swept in all directions, shocking everyone present. They were all stunned for a moment before slowly coming back to their senses.
Jiang Taixu, the God King of the East Wilderness four thousand years ago, who overwhelmed countless geniuses in the Beidou, is actually still alive and has reappeared in the world.
And Chai Xin, a previously unknown boy, actually saved the God King and was his direct disciple.
This bombshell news was enough to shake the entire Eastern Wilderness. In the post-ancient era when no saints appeared, a powerful man who could kill people was enough to dominate the time and shock all the holy places and ancient families.
"Divine King Jiang Taixu was already invincible in the Eastern Wasteland four thousand years ago. Now that so many years have passed, how much stronger must he be!"
"It was previously rumored that the God King survived the catastrophe outside the Taichu Ancient Mine. Could it be that he is now a legendary saint... or even higher?"
"Chai Xin is actually the disciple of the old God King. No wonder the Jiang family would help him..."
"No wonder the demon tribe allowed Princess Yan to marry Chai Xin. It seems that they had received the news a long time ago! It's a pity that I didn't notice it. If I had known, I would have married both of my granddaughters to him!"
"Hey, old ape king, you really have no shame. How can your two female gorillas compare to Princess Yan!"
In just one sentence, everyone looked at Chai Xin with completely different eyes.
If before he looked at me with admiration as an elder, now he looked at me with eagerness, even with a hint of flattery.
After all, the reputation of the God King Jiang Taixu is too great!
Moreover, the Jiang family's name alone was enough to make everyone take him seriously. The multiple identities combined with Chai Xin's own monstrous talent were enough to make many older generations with daughters sigh and regret not being able to recognize his talent.
"Brother Jiang has finished speaking, and I have something to add."
Suddenly, the Green Dragon King also spoke, his expression extremely serious.
"Young friend Chai is now the future prince consort of my demon clan. If there are still people who are blind and dare to disregard the rules and secretly trip me up, I will kill them!"
His words were extremely serious, not only for the Ji family to hear, but also to express his attitude and intimidate all forces.
Everyone present became more and more moved. Now Chai Xin was protected by the Jiang family and the Demon Emperor represented by King Qing Jiao. Looking at the entire Eastern Wilderness, no force would dare to act recklessly and attack him without regard for the rules.
Facing countless complicated looks, Chai Xin remained neither humble nor overbearing. He suddenly bowed to all directions, and finally turned to the Eighth Ancestor of the Ji Family and said with a smile: "Don't worry, seniors. As long as there are peers who want to compete with me, I am happy to do so!"
As he spoke, he looked very "enthusiastically" at Ji Haoyue, who was hiding in the distance and remained silent, as if he was expecting him to fight again.
The eighth ancestor of the Ji family had a face so gloomy that water seemed to drip out of it, but he didn't dare to say anything more at this moment. He just snorted coldly and turned his head away.
Ji Haoyue looked at Chai Xin with a burning gaze, and said for the first time: "Chai Xin, I will definitely avenge today's shame tomorrow!"
Chai Xin still had a smile on his face, clasped his fists and said, "You're welcome anytime. I couldn't ask for more. By the way, remember to prepare the chips to redeem you."
His words made Ji Haoyue almost spit out blood. In the end, he could only turn his head away like Ji Ba and pretend not to hear it.
"Farewell!"
Ji Yuntian clasped his fists and saluted sullenly, then waved his sleeves and disappeared in the small world.
Upon seeing this, the rest of the people from the Ji family and the Yaoguang Holy Land also turned around and left.
"The troublemakers are gone, we won!"
"Hahaha, a great victory!"
There was silence in the small world for a moment, and then cheers shook the sky. Countless descendants of the demon race and human race's major forces celebrated with each other, expressing their inner joy.
Many of them had been bullied by the Ji family or the Yaoguang Holy Land, so they were naturally very pleased to see them being humiliated today.
"Everyone, please leave if you are spoiling the fun. The engagement ceremony will continue!"
The Green Dragon King let out a long roar, and the cheers in the small world became even louder.
Next, the engagement ceremony almost turned into a celebration party. King Qing Jiao’s small world was extremely lively and the banquet lasted for several days.
During these few short days, the news that the Divine King Jiang Taixu had reappeared in the world and accepted Chai Xin as his personal disciple spread rapidly throughout the Eastern Wilderness as if it had wings, shocking all the major forces.
From then on, Chai Xin was no longer a weak and isolated man. Any big force that wanted to touch him had to think about itself first.
The person who felt this most deeply was naturally Chai Xin himself.
Originally, after his engagement with Yan Ruyu was announced, many people sneered at it, thinking that he was not worthy of her and that he was a toad wanting to eat swan flesh.
Especially within the demon clan, although most people were afraid of his vicious reputation and dared not express it openly, there were still many jealous and hostile looks, as well as whispers.
But ever since the news that he was Jiang Taixu's disciple was exposed, no matter whether they were from the human or demon race, the older generation or the younger generation, they all became extremely friendly when they met him. The guys who were as domineering as before have completely disappeared.
In the small world, a gorgeous ship floats on a jade-like lake.
"The days when no one provokes me are really boring..."
Chai Xin lay at the bow of the boat and sighed in boredom.
Not only him, but also Ye Fan, Hei Huang, Tu Tian, and the descendants of the great bandits such as Wu Zhongtian and Jiang Huairen who arrived one after another, were all enjoying boating here, having a very pleasant time.
"You are so ungrateful for what you have. Just like in the past, a little golden-winged Peng King pops up every few days. Aren't you annoyed?"
Tu Tian held a piece of dogtail grass between his legs and rolled his eyes.
"Since I entered the world of cultivation, this period of time has been truly a rare period of peace and tranquility." Ye Fan stood at the bow of the boat, feeling the warm breeze, and sighed sincerely.
Chai Xin glanced at Tu Fei and said seriously, "No, not at all. One Ji Haoyue was exchanged for 10 million jin of source, and one Golden Winged Xiaopeng King was exchanged for two ten-jin divine sources. It's simply pie in the sky. What's there to be annoyed about?"
"puff!"
When he said this, everyone on the boat burst into laughter.
"That's right, it's true. For us, the provocations of those geniuses are troubles, but for Brother Chai, they are benefits delivered to your doorstep!"
Wu Zhongtian shook his head and sighed, feeling that the gap between people was too big.
But at this moment, a graceful figure suddenly emerged from the distance and quickly came closer. It was Qin Yao.
She looked very serious, and the moment she opened her mouth she broke the relaxed atmosphere among the group.
"Everyone, the lid of the Heaven Devouring Demon Jar has appeared!"
There should be more later, but it will be quite late. If you need to get up early tomorrow, you can watch it tomorrow.
