His Holiness, Yin Zhaoyang suddenly suggested that both sides would not send out their Supremes, and instead send other non-Supreme level Demon Masters to fight for the best of three. Without a doubt, this was a huge opportunity for the Demon Skills Guild. Everyone knew of Yin Zhaoyang's reputation. He would never go back on his words.
Leng Fengyun and Shui Mingyue looked at each other. They both knew that this was their last chance. If they did not agree, they wouldn't be able to fight against the four Supremes joining hands.
Shui Mingyue said in a clear voice, "Alright, we agree. Best of three."
Yin Zhaoyang looked at Hyōhime and Shangguan Yinkong. Before Ji Zhangxin could speak, Shangguan Yinkong's voice sounded, "His Holiness, I believe in you."
Although Ji Zhangxin was a little unwilling, he turned his head to look at Shangguan Yinkong and nodded in the end. After all, Shangguan Yinkong was the president of the Demon Skills Guild. Moreover, as long as his wife was happy, so what if he lost the guild?
Yin Zhaoyang nodded and said, "Since both sides have agreed, then we can each choose our own people to fight."
Shui Mingyue said, "We need to discuss this."
Yin Zhaoyang said, "Of course." Even though his current words and actions were somewhat like a noisy guest trying to usurp the host's position, with his status in the Devil Master world, no one in the world would say anything about it. Ji Zhangxin and Shangguan Yinkong trusted him because they believed that he wouldn't speak without thinking. He would only make such a suggestion when he was confident.
Although Shui Mingyue and Leng Fengyun also expected Yin Zhaoyang to be very confident, no matter how confident he was, everyone would send out an Eight Crown Demon Master at most. After three rounds, it was hard to say who would win. This was also their last chance.
While the Supremes of both sides were communicating, there were two more people beside Ji Dong, Thunder Emperor Fury and Cannon Dragon Ah Bing.
"Little brother, you've been gone for four years without any news from us. Are you trying to kill us with anxiety?" Fury grabbed Ji Dong's shoulder and questioned him. "You've been gone for four years, and there's been no news from you at all.
After four years, Fury's appearance hadn't changed much. However, his temperament seemed to have become more solemn, vaguely giving off the kind of pressure of heaven and earth thunder. Even if he didn't release his mana, he would still make people feel oppressed.
Seeing Fury grab Ji Dong's shoulder, Ah Jin took a step forward and was about to make a move, but was stopped by Flaming Bar, who shook his head at her.
Fury glanced in the direction of Raging Flames and Ah Jin. He snorted and said, "You're enjoying yourself. Do you know how anxious Grandmaster, Mistress, Teacher, and I are? Even if it's just you sending a letter back, it's fine!"
Ji Dong had a bitter smile on his face as he said, "Senior Brother, it's my fault. However, you can't blame me for this. I met with an accident and coincidentally entered a state of seclusion. This seclusion lasted for four years. To me, four years passed in the blink of an eye. When I woke up, it was already more than a month ago."
Fury was stunned for a moment, and then he said, "Four years of closed door cultivation? Alright, let's not talk about this. Why didn't you come to the academy to look for me after you came to Central Plains City and treated Brother Cannon Dragon? You know I'm at the Heavenly Stem Academy? If Brother Cannon Dragon didn't come to ask me when he couldn't find you, I wouldn't even know you're back. "
"This … I still had something to take care of, so I didn't go to the academy to look for you. Senior brother, why are you, grandmaster, and master's wife all here?"
Cannon Dragon Ah Bing said, "Little Shidi, you healed me, so you're my savior. But you left without saying a word, that's not right. How can your Senior Brother endure this!? Fury this brat, in order to find you, he almost searched the entire Central Plains City. After that, he got the news from the Magician Guild, knowing that you will come to participate in the battle between the two big guilds in a month's time, so he immediately went to find the two Supreme Honorables. Do you think we came here today for the two big guilds? It's all for you. "
"I …" Ji Dong couldn't speak anymore, his throat was choked. Looking at Fury, a layer of mist appeared at the bottom of his eyes. Fury's face was still covered in dust, it could be seen how he spent the past month. The next battle between the Holy and Evil was getting closer and closer. As the leader of the Radiant Five Elements Continent, Ji Dong should've been training hard, but for Ji Dong, he wasted a month and even alarmed his grandmaster and mistress to look for him personally. This was the first time Ji Dong felt the warmth of a family.
Seeing Ji Dong choking on his sobs, Fury's voice softened a little. He patted Ji Dong's shoulder and said, "Alright, alright. A man should shed blood but not tears. Wipe your eyes dry. Don't let others see you like this."
"Senior Brother, I was wrong." Ji Dong lowered his head silently.
Fury hugged Ji Dong's shoulder and said, "No one expected you to go into seclusion for four years. This isn't entirely your fault. After all, in your mind, we've only been separated for a few months, not a few years. Alright, let's talk about it when we get back. Grandmaster and mistress won't really blame you."
At this moment, the negotiation between the six Supremes had ended. Shui Mingyue and Leng Fengyun returned to the Magician Guild to choose their Magician. Ji Zhangxin, Shangguan Yinkong, Yin Zhaoyang and Yin Zhaorong also returned.
Ji Zhangxin asked Yin Zhaoyang doubtfully, "Brother Zhaoyang, we clearly have the absolute advantage, why are you doing this! Although Tianji has some ability to predict the future, we can't trust him completely. Shui Mingyue and Leng Fengyun have always been secretly opposing you. Why are you helping them? "
Yin Zhaoyang said, "Tianji's words are not a joke. When he saw me, his life was already at its end. No matter what, on the other side of the Holy Evil Island, there is our common enemy, the Dark Five Elements Continent. We'd rather believe it than not. Moreover, if the Magician Guild can swallow up the Magician Guild and recruit these two Nine-crown Magicians, wouldn't it greatly increase the strength of the Magician Guild? If we combine all our strength, even if something really goes wrong, we'll be able to deal with it better. "
Ji Zhangxin nodded silently and said, "You're thinking far ahead. However, there are a few good candidates in the Magician Guild. On our side, except for Xi Luo, the other eight Crown Magicians are still a bit lacking. You're being too hasty with this two out of three round."
Yin Zhaoyang smiled and said, "Since I've proposed this method of competition, I'll naturally help you solve the problem. Otherwise, I won't be helping you, but tearing you down. Fury, Ji Dong, come here."
"Yes, Grandmaster." Ji Dong and Fury strode forward and arrived in front of the four Supreme Crowns.
Shangguan Yinkong had been avoiding looking at Ji Zhangxin and asked Yin Zhaoyang, "Your Majesty, I know Fury. He's a good kid. He's already led the Heavenly Stem Academy's kids to victory in the Holy Evil Battlefield many times. Who is this kid? Is he also Zhurong's disciple? "
Yin Zhaoyang smiled and said, "Not only Zhurong's disciple, but he also has a close relationship with you! Ji Dong, why aren't you greeting him? "
Ji Dong hurried forward and respectfully saluted Shangguan Yinkong, saying, "Great Grandson Ji Dong pays his respects to Great Grandmother."
"Wait a moment." Shangguan Yinkong shouted, startling Ji Dong. However, he wasn't afraid. With Yin Zhaoyang and Ji Dong here, no one here could hurt him.
Shangguan Yinkong looked at Ji Zhangxin coldly and said, "Surnamed Ji, you still say it's a misunderstanding? You even have a descendant. This youngster is His Majesty's disciple, so he's naturally a fire element Magician. If I remember correctly, that slut was also a fire element Magician. What else do you have to explain? "
Ji Zhangxin smiled bitterly and said, "Yinkong, can't you calm down a bit? You're right, Ji Dong is indeed a Fire Devil Master, but this has nothing to do with me. Your great-grandson found a Fire Devil Master as his wife, and that's how they had Ji Dong. The process is very complicated. I'll let Yunsheng explain it to you later. What I can tell you is that although I made a mistake that time, I was drugged and I couldn't control myself at all. Moreover, I only have you as my wife. Our son has already passed away, and only Yunsheng's bloodline has been passed down. If I had other women, would our Prince Equivalent's bloodline be so thin after so many years? "
Qiguan Yinkong looked at Hyōhime and Yunsheng doubtfully and said, "Is that so, Yunsheng?"
Ji Yunsheng hurriedly nodded and said, "That's right, Grandma. Our bloodline has only had two children in Ji Dong's generation. One is Ji Dong, and the other is Ji Yeshang."
Yin Chaoyang said, "Let's talk about family matters later. Fury, Ji Dong, you will represent the Magician Guild in the battle later. Fury, I won't say anything. Ji Dong, you must win this battle. I heard what you said to your senior brother. Since you've been in seclusion for four years, let me see the results of your four years. Do you have a mount?"
Ji Dong nodded and said, "I do. Grandmaster, don't worry. I will definitely return victorious." Back when he faced the Annihilation Legion, Ji Dong had the confidence to defeat an Eight Crown Magician by relying on the Everlasting Formation. Moreover, he now had the help of the Sacred Evolution Fire Dragon, Maotai and Wuliangye. He came to the battle today because he wanted to test out the power of the Flaming Bar Dual Swords he had just obtained yesterday.
Shangguan Yinkong was shocked and said, "Your Holiness Shengguang, did you make a mistake? How old are they to let these two children fight?"
Yin Chaoyang smiled and said, "Age does not determine one's ambition. Your Holiness Daji, please believe me. I will not joke around with the lives of my disciples."
Shangguan Yinkong said, "Forget about Fury. I know that child's strength has always been good. He is outstanding even among the geniuses of the Heavenly Stem Academy. But what about Ji Dong? Looking at him, it's already not bad if he's twenty years old. Even if he started cultivating in his mother's womb, it's already very impressive for him to reach the fiftieth level. Their opponent will definitely be an Eight Crown Magician! "
Yin Chaoyang and Hyōhime said, "Tell your great-grandmother, what level of magician are you?"
Ji Dong said, "Great-grandmother, I am an Ultimate Dual Fire Magician. My magic power is at the sixty-first level. Please rest assured, an Eight Crown Magician is not a problem."
The small words "Ultimate Dual Fire Magician" were absolutely shocking. When the words "sixty-first level" came out, even Yin Chaoyang and Yin Zhaorong couldn't help but reveal a smile on their faces. Not to mention anything else, to reach the twelfth level in four years, Ji Dong was a dual element cultivator. This speed was definitely the speed of a genius. It must be known that in these four years, Fury's magic power had only increased by four levels, and he had just reached the seventy-eighth level. Although it was much more difficult to increase the level of a Seven Crown Magician, the cultivation speed after the Five Crown Magicians was not that fast, especially when Ji Dong had broken through the barrier of the Six Crown Magicians.
Shangguan Yinkong turned to look at Hyōhime and Ji Zhangxin in shock, only to find that Ji Zhangxin's expression was the same as usual. Obviously, he already knew. She might not believe Yin Chaoyang, but Ji Zhangxin was a man she hated but also loved. How could she not believe in this kind of thing?
"Then who is the third candidate?" Shangguan Yinkong asked.
Yin Chaoyang smiled and said indifferently, "There is no need for a third candidate. The two of them are enough." Although his words were very simple and calm, the confidence contained in them was filled with an unquestionable aura. This was an absolute certainty.
Ji Dong and Fury looked at each other. Their backs were perfectly straight. Facing the upcoming battle, the two brothers were not nervous at all, as if this was just a normal thing.
Yin Chaoyang said to them, "The magicians of the Magic Skill Guild have their own unique research on magic skills. The two of you must treat this battle as a training for the Holy Evil Island. Fury, you go first. Ji Dong, you go second."
"Yes." The two brothers replied respectfully. The candidates on this side had been selected.
Shangguan Yinkong wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ji Zhangxin. Ji Zhangxin said to Shangguan Yinkong through voice transmission, "There is no problem with brother Chaoyang's arrangement. Ji Dong will definitely take over my position in the clan in the future. He might even surpass us and reach another level. Just wait and see. He will definitely give you a surprise later."
Shangguan Yinkong glanced at Ji Zhangxin and said through voice transmission, "What you said just now is true? You were really drugged back then? "
Ji Zhangxin's expression immediately turned gloomy. He said, "Yinkong, at that time, someone deliberately wanted to destroy our relationship as husband and wife. After I woke up from the drug, I directly killed that woman. After investigating for several years, I finally found the culprit who framed me."
"Who was it?" A cold light flashed in Shangguan Yinkong's eyes.
Blue veins popped out on Ji Zhangxin's forehead. He clenched his fists and said, "It was the royal family. Do you remember? Before the incident, I discussed it with you. The existence of our Prince Equivalent's bloodline is too special in the empire. It will definitely arouse the jealousy of the country. We planned to return the Diamond Corps to the royal family. However, before I could hand over the power in my hands, the royal family instead made a false accusation. Therefore, the Diamond Corps is still in our hands."
