"Oh? You've arranged for the Saints? Who are they? " Ji Dong asked in surprise. His pupils contracted. The Heavenly Stem Saints were very important to him. If it weren't for the despicable actions of the previous Radiant Heavenly Stem Saints, the Evil Island wouldn't have faced such a calamity.
Ji Yeshang said, "They are all your acquaintances, or rather, your own people. Light First Wood Holy Disciple Yao Qianshu, Light Second Wood Holy Disciple Kong, Light Yin Yang Double Fire Holy Disciple Ji Dong, Light Yang Thunder Holy Disciple Fury, Light Fifth Earth Holy Disciple Kong, Light Sixth Earth Holy Disciple Miao Miao, Light Seventh Metal Holy Disciple Du Xin 'er, Light Seventh Metal Holy Disciple Ah Jin, Light Ninth Water Holy Disciple Du Ming, and Light Tenth Water Holy Disciple Lan Baoer.
Hearing this, Ji Dong heaved a sigh of relief. A rare smile appeared on his face. "They're indeed on our side."
Ji Yeshang said helplessly, "If it weren't for my identity as the Crown Prince, I would definitely have become the Holy Disciple of the Radiant Fifth Land. Unfortunately, I can't do that. Brother, don't blame me."
Ji Dong looked at Ji Yeshang. He realized that his half-brother was much more dignified and mature than before. He no longer had the immaturity and impulsiveness of youth. Instead, he was more steady and profound.
"I have plans for the Fifth and Wood Saints. Are they all at the Heavenly Stem Academy?" Ji Dong asked. After all, they all had their own identities. Miao Miao wanted to control the Demonic Alliance, while Du Ming and Du Xin 'er were the children of the Bartenders Guild's president. They might not all stay here.
Ji Yeshang nodded hard. "They're all at the Heavenly Stem Academy, because they all know that if you come back, you'll definitely go to the Heavenly Stem Academy to find them. Not a single one is missing. They're all waiting for you, for the king of the Heavenly Stem Holy King."
Ji Dong said solemnly, "I'll go to the Heavenly Stem Academy tomorrow to see them. Brother, I need your help, or rather, the help and support of the Middle Earth Empire."
Ji Yeshang said, "Speak. I'll do it as long as I can."
Ji Dong said, "I hope you can come to the Heavenly Stem Academy with Grandpa the day after tomorrow to watch the battles."
"Watch the battle? You want to deal with the Heavenly Stem Academy? " Hearing Ji Dong's words, Ji Yeshang couldn't help but be shocked. In his eyes, although his little brother was a bit impulsive at times, he wasn't the type to act recklessly. In this day and age, we should be united against outsiders. Why would he act against the Heavenly Stem Academy? "
Ji Dong said: "It's not to deal with Heavenly Stem Academy, it's to exchange and learn. Didn't you see those people I brought? They're all students of my Blazing Academy. In this period of time, I've always been a teacher at Blazing Academy founded by my teacher. This time I brought them here, one to deal with some personal matters, the other to exchange pointers with Heavenly Stem Academy."
Hearing Ji Dong say this, Ji Yeshang couldn't help but frown. "Just based on those little radishes of yours? Apart from that masked girl, the average cultivation of the others is around three champions. There doesn't seem to be much meaning in bringing these students to exchange pointers with the ordinary students of our Heavenly Stem Academy. Little brother, there's still a lot of things waiting for you to do. How can you be an ordinary teacher? That's like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut."
Ji Dong smiled faintly. "Brother, what if I say that the ones I want to exchange pointers with aren't ordinary students, but Yin Yang Hall? Oh, I can tell you that the students I've brought are disciples of our Blazing Academy's Sun Moon Hall. Sun Moon Hall is under my control. "
"Sun Moon Hall?" Ji Yeshang stared blankly for a moment, then said with some amusement, "Are you provoking the Yin Yang Hall? Right, you still haven't forgotten what happened back then?"
Ji Dong said, "That's no longer important. Perhaps I've always had some grudges in my heart, but do you think I'll ignore the bigger picture because of that dirty matter? I've brought this group of students to exchange pointers naturally with a purpose. In your eyes, the Yin Yang Hall may be supreme in the academy, but that's not the case in my eyes. I've come this time to bring my students to challenge the top thirty disciples of the Yin Yang Hall. "
Ji Yeshang's eyes widened as he looked at Ji Dong. "How is that possible? Although you're strong, unless you're willing to engage in large-scale slaughter, you won't be able to win in a normal exchange. You've been in the Yin Yang Hall before, so you naturally know the strength of our Yin Yang Hall. One against thirty, even you and senior brother Fury … "
Ji Dong glanced at him. "Who told you that I'm participating in the competition? I'm a teacher. Exchanging pointers is a matter for the students."
"Ah?" Ji Yeshang looked at Ji Dong as if he was looking at a monster. "You can't be serious, right? You want those little fellows you've brought to fight the Yin Yang Hall head-on? Brother, you …"
Ji Dong naturally knew what he was going to say. "I'm very normal. Otherwise, do you think I'd invite you and grandfather to watch the battle? I want to change the current situation of the world of demons." Ji Dong's tone was so calm, but every word he said set off huge waves in Ji Yeshang's heart.
It must be known that Ji Yeshang was no longer a student of the Yin Yang Hall, but the heir of the Middle Earth Empire. His thoughts would even determine the future of the Middle Earth Empire. He would naturally support his younger brother Ji Dong unreservedly. Their blood relationship could not be replaced by any benefits. Moreover, his younger brother was the Holy King of the Heavenly Stems. Perhaps not many people knew of him, but among the upper echelons of the various countries, especially the upper echelons of the Middle Earth Empire and the world of demons, he had extremely high prestige. He was vaguely known as the rising stars of the current generation, along with Fury, the Thunder Emperor. But no matter what, what Ji Dong had expressed was too unimaginable. As one of the top ten experts of the Yin Yang Hall, Ji Dong was all too clear about the overall strength of the Yin Yang Hall. It was simply unimaginable that Ji Dong wanted to use his students, who had won three championships, against the top thirty disciples of the Yin Yang Hall.
Ji Yeshang did not even know what to say. He only looked at Ji Dong, hoping that he could give him a reasonable explanation.
"Seeing is believing. I don't want you to believe me right now. Invite grandpa to watch the battle. I won't disappoint you. At the same time, I will also invite the higher-ups of the Magician Guild to come. This is also one of the main reasons why I came to Central Plains City."
Ji Yeshang took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He said, "Little brother, I really can't see through you anymore. Even if it's a miracle, I can't believe it. This miracle is too strong. I can't think of any chance of you succeeding. Those kids …"
Ji Dong frowned. "Don't call them kids. Call them my students. I'm only two or three years older than them. Magic level is never everything in battle. In my eyes, there are no miracles, only strength."
Ji Yeshang said, "Alright. Although I definitely won't believe you can succeed, I will definitely fulfill your request. I believe Grandpa won't refuse. We're a family after all. When is the day after tomorrow?"
Ji Dong said, "In the morning."
Ji Yeshang nodded. "Alright, then it's settled. Right, why did that manager call you boss just now? What's your relationship with the Stupid Rich Chamber of Commerce? Brother, you have to be careful. The Stupid Rich Chamber of Commerce has hidden a lot of power. It's always been the target of all the empires, but no country has been able to obtain its absolute support. The Stupid Rich Chamber of Commerce's power is enough to shock anyone. Its president is even a supreme expert. "
Ji Dong said, "You're talking about that fatty Zhou Xiaoxiao, right? He was the one who gave me that badge. He said that I can use it at any of the Stupid Rich Chamber of Commerce's businesses without paying. Do you really think I have that much money to spend?"
Ji Yeshang was taken aback. "You have to be up to no good. Does the Stupid Rich Chamber of Commerce have something to ask of you?"
Ji Dong said, "Sort of. Don't worry about this. I know what I'm doing." He didn't tell Ji Yeshang that he might be appointed as the heir to the Stupid Rich Chamber of Commerce. It was obvious that if he did, it would bring a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Ji Yeshang nodded. "Alright, I believe you can handle it. Brother, I still have to attend a cabinet meeting, so I'll be leaving now. If you have time, you should go home and visit Grandpa. After I enter the palace, Grandpa will be a bit lonely in the king's manor."
Ji Dong hesitated. Just as he was about to speak, a low, authoritative voice came from outside. "Let me see him."
As the voice rang out, the door opened. The tall figure of the Prince of Equality, Ji Yunsheng, appeared at the door. As soon as the door opened, Ji Dong and Ji Yeshang saw many people standing at the door. They seemed to be the staff of the Stupid Rich Chamber of Commerce, including the shocked manager. They were probably all the higher-ups of the chamber.
Ji Yeshang and Ji Dong stood up at almost the same time. As soon as Ji Yunsheng entered, his entire body trembled. He stared blankly at the white-haired Ji Dong, his hands hidden in his sleeves trembling uncontrollably. At his age, his hair wasn't white yet, but his grandson, who was in the prime of his life, had actually …. How much of a blow must he have suffered to become like this? When he saw Ji Dong, Ji Yunsheng couldn't help but think of his father. He felt an intense pain in his heart. The unhappiness he had felt when Ji Dong returned to Zhongyuan City but didn't go to the king's manor disappeared. All that was left in his eyes was regret.
"Grandpa." Ji Dong bowed to Hyōhime Yunsheng, and Ji Yeshang did the same. However, he had already been adopted into the imperial family, so he couldn't call him grandpa in front of outsiders.
Ji Yunsheng stepped into the room and waved his left hand. With a bang, the door was slammed shut. He took a step forward and arrived in front of Ji Dong. "What's going on? What happened? "
Ji Dong sighed inwardly. Was his scar going to be torn open again and again? Fortunately, Ji Yeshang was smart enough to approach the Prince of Equality and explain Ji Dong's situation in a low voice. When he heard Ji Yeshang's words, Ji Yunsheng couldn't help but sigh heavily. He looked at Ji Dong and said, "You're just like your father. It's all because of love."
Ji Dong said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Grandpa, can you come the day after tomorrow?" Although Ji Yeshang's voice was soft, how could he not hear it? His older brother had already told Ji Yunsheng about watching the battle the day after tomorrow.
Ji Yunsheng nodded. "I will go. This is the family's support for you, but are you really confident? If the students you bring can't even withstand a single blow, then you won't be the only one who will suffer. "
Ji Dong looked deeply into Ji Yunsheng's eyes. "I'm someone who likes to control everything. I don't want to explain any more, but I can tell you for sure that you won't be disappointed."
Ji Yunsheng was much more decisive than Ji Yeshang. "Good. If you can create this miracle, then no matter what you do in the future, the family will support you unconditionally. Now, come home with me."
Ji Dong shook his head. "No, Grandpa. I'll stay with my students.
Ji Yunsheng said angrily, "Don't tell me that our Prince Equivalent's Residence doesn't have a place to stay? You little brat, why didn't you come see me as soon as you returned to the Central Plains City?"
Although Ji Yunsheng's voice was filled with an insufferably domineering aura, Ji Dong could deeply feel the warmth in it. His heart softened. "Grandpa, it's not that I don't want to go back, but I can't go now. Three days from now, my students and I will be at the heart of the struggle. I will have to face the entire Demon Master world. I don't want to be implicated in anything related to the Central Plains Empire, and I will definitely not express my support for the Central Plains Empire. Everything can wait for three days, okay? I'll give you an explanation. "
Ji Yunsheng frowned again, but in the end, he endured it. "Alright, Ji Dong. I can ignore everything else, and I can even support you. However, there's one thing you must promise me." At this point, the gaze of the most powerful old man in the Central Plains Empire suddenly softened. He looked at his grandson and said, "Protect yourself well. Don't let yourself suffer any more harm, no matter if it's your body or your heart. I've already lost my son. I don't want to lose my grandson as well." After saying this, Ji Yunsheng heavily patted Ji Dong's shoulder. Then, he waved his hand at Hyōhime and Night Sorrow, and left with his grandson. How could the Prince Equivalent miss out on a cabinet meeting?
Looking in the direction that Ji Yunsheng had left, Ji Dong's gaze involuntarily softened. The warmth brought by family made him want to cry. No matter when, he was never alone!
"Boss." At this time, the management staff of the Silly Rich Hotel, who were standing outside, respectfully bowed to Hyōhime. The person at the front was an old man around sixty years old. He looked hale and hearty, and his eyes shone brightly. Among the management staff, he was the only one who did not have that kind of reverence in his eyes.
