Ji Zhangxin sighed and said to Ji Dong, "Child, we've always been worried about you. We only found out that you were in the Southern Fire Empire after receiving Brother Chaoyang's letter. Brother Chaoyang has already told us everything about you, but we didn't expect that even your hair …"
At this point, Shangguan Yinkong's eyes had already turned red. Clearly, they knew about what had happened between Ji Dong and the Flaming Bar. Ji Dong lowered his head calmly and pursed his lips. He had long since known that returning to Central Plains City and facing the past would make it easier for him to think about the Flaming Bar. However, no matter how mentally prepared he was, when faced with such a situation, he still felt a heart-wrenching pain. This was also one of the reasons why he had acted up in the Foolish Rich Hotel. If it had been the previous Ji Dong, he might not have bothered with the hotel's general manager.
"Poor child, you're really sentimental. Now that you've returned to Central Plains City, you're going home. Great-grandmother won't let you go. Child, you must remember, no matter what happens in the future, you must come home. As long as you have your family, no matter what happens, we will support you."
Shangguan Yinkong's words injected a warm current into Ji Dong's pained heart. He nodded lightly, and his previously pale complexion finally improved a bit.
Ji Zhangxin said, "Child, did you return to Central Plains City for something?"
Ji Dong nodded. Facing Ji Zhangxin and Shangguan Yinkong, he naturally wouldn't keep them in suspense like he did with Ji Yeshang. "Great-ancestor, great-grandmother, I did indeed come to Central Plains City for something important. One is to reorganize the Holy Disciples of the Radiant Academy. In the future Holy War against the Heavenly Stem Academy, they need us. The other is to lead the students of the Southern Fire Empire's Blazing Academy to have an exchange with the Heavenly Stem Academy. I've come today to invite President Xi Luo, Vice-president Wofu, and the various guild elders to watch the exchange. During this exchange, I've invented a formation that can be widely used in the world of Demon Masters to present to everyone. I hope to teach this formation to all Demon Masters and form them into groups. Once it succeeds, we'll have at least twenty percent more chances in the Holy War against the Five Elements Continent."
Hearing Ji Dong's words, the members of the Demon Master Guild couldn't help but look at each other in dismay, including Ji Zhangxin and his wife. Their first thought was that Ji Dong was boasting.
20% didn't sound like much, but it depended on the base number. The 20% that Ji Dong mentioned was for the Holy War between the Light and Darkness Continents. If one side suddenly had an additional 20% of confidence, it would basically be a decisive advantage. In an instant, the entire conference room couldn't help but fall silent.
If it was any other person who said this, Ji Zhangxin would definitely have left in a huff. He hated boastful people the most, but the one who said this was his most valued great-grandson. Ji Dong had lost his beloved in the Holy War, causing his hair to turn white. Even if he did something more outrageous, Ji Zhangxin and his wife would definitely treat him with tolerance. However, they obviously couldn't agree with what Ji Dong said, so they didn't say anything. With these two Supremes present, and the one who said such an unbelievable thing was their great-grandson, who was also the guild's enforcement elder, the others naturally couldn't say anything. They just looked at Ji Dong with a strange gaze.
Ji Dong said indifferently, "I know you guys don't believe me, so I won't explain much here. Facts speak louder than words. Let's see it with our own eyes. President Hilo, Vice President Wofer, are you willing to come the day after tomorrow?"
Wofer's eyes clearly showed a hesitant look. He was weighing the impact of this matter on the Magic Guild. Sending the president and vice president of the Magic Guild to attend the competition for the two academies seemed to be making a mountain out of a molehill. It was the same even if one of the academies was the Heavenly Stem Academy. Ever since the Magic Guild and the Magic Skills Guild merged, the two guilds complemented each other and had now become an influential force on the continent. After more than a year, the Magic Guild and the Magic Skills Guild had completed their integration. Now, the number of Magicians that the Magic Guild could directly mobilize was absolutely terrifying. Even the Magicians that the Five Great Empires controlled couldn't compare to it. As the president and vice president of the guild, Hilo and Wofer's status naturally rose. After all, there were four Supremes standing behind the Magic Skills Guild.
Wofer was hesitating, but Hilo directly said, "Okay, we'll definitely be there the day after tomorrow." He didn't even think much and directly agreed.
In terms of strength, Hilo wasn't even comparable to Wofer. In terms of the specific work of the guild, he was also not as proficient as Wofer. However, he had an advantage that Wofer couldn't compare to. This was also why Wofer didn't have any thoughts about Hilo taking the position of president. This advantage was that he could see the big picture.
When Wofer thought about things, he would often start from a partial perspective, while Hilo could think of the big picture. After more than a year of interaction, Wofer was already completely convinced of him. More than a year ago, who would have thought that these two old enemies would actually become best friends? Although arguments were unavoidable, the friendship between the two was even deeper than that of long-time friends. Someone once said, "The enemy often knows you best." This sentence couldn't be more suitable for them, and it was precisely because of this that they could get along so well in such a short period of time after the grudges between them disappeared. Hilo agreed immediately.
Wofer couldn't help but be taken aback. He couldn't help but look at him, but Hilo gave him a very firm and affirmative look. Hilo's thinking was very simple. As long as Ji Dong decided to do something, he would support it unconditionally. This wasn't because Ji Dong had helped the Magic Master Guild back then, but because of Ji Dong himself. What kind of person was Ji Dong? Not only did he have four Supremes standing behind him, but he also possessed the Ultimate Dual Flames with a limitless future. Wofer only heard the latter part of his words, but ignored what he said before, which was to reorganize the Heavenly Stems Holy Disciple. Without a doubt, Ji Dong was this generation's Heavenly Stems Holy King. In the history of the continent, which generation of Heavenly Stems Holy Disciple didn't have a decisive effect on the continent? Supporting Ji Dong and maintaining a close relationship with him was definitely a great plan for the Magic Master Guild. Even if what Ji Dong said today was just bragging and made the Magic Master Guild and the Heavenly Stem Academy lose face, so what? In the face of absolute strength, how much was face worth? With the Magic Master Guild's strength, who would dare to make fun of them?!
Ji Zhangxin smiled at Hyōhime and said, "When the time comes, your great-grandmother and I will go as well."
Ji Dong was stunned. "Great-ancestor, you …" He clearly saw the disbelief in this great-ancestor's eyes earlier, so why did he change his mind so quickly?
Ji Zhangxin chuckled and said, "Even Hilo has confidence in you. As your great-ancestor, how could I be inferior to him? Moreover, I suddenly remembered the battle between the Magic Master Guild and the Magic Skill Guild. When you were facing your opponent, those wine bottles that had the effect of a scroll should also be your own invention. I believe that my great-great-grandson is a genius. If what you said is not exaggerated, then the day after tomorrow will be a moment to witness history. Of course we have to go."
After listening to Ji Zhangxin's words, Hilo and Wofer felt as if they had been enlightened. That's right, they had witnessed a lot of miracles from this young man. Even if he exaggerated a little, at least his inventions were definitely extraordinary.
To Ji Dong, this was undoubtedly a great thing. Ji Zhangxin's appearance and Ji Yunsheng's appearance were two different concepts. Although Ji Yunsheng was the current King of Equality, his reputation was far from Ji Zhangxin's. In a sense, Ji Zhangxin and his wife were the protectors of the Middle Earth Empire, and they were the top figures in the Magic Master world. With their support, it would be much easier for Ji Dong to do anything.
When Ji Dong left the Magic Master Guild, the sky was already very dark. Ji Zhangxin and his wife wanted him to stay in the Magic Master Guild, but he was concerned about his students, so he naturally could not stay.
At this moment, the Central Plains City had finally quietened down. Walking on the streets, Ji Dong's brain was working at high speed. Being able to invite Ji Zhangxin was something he hadn't expected at all. And with the participation of this mysterious ancestor, the exchange with the Heavenly Stem Academy had become even more important. He had to allow his students to perfectly display their strength, and achieve the goal of shocking the entire audience. Only then would he be able to influence everyone. It seemed like he had no choice but to bleed a little this time.
He slowly walked back to the hotel. Just as he reached the door, Ji Dong suddenly raised his head. His eyes seemed to shoot out two cold bolts of lightning as he looked towards the corner of the hotel door.
"Teacher Ji Dong, you're back?" A very happy voice rang out. Immediately after, accompanied by a faint fragrance, Chen Sixuan was already standing in front of Ji Dong.
"Why aren't you resting? What are you doing here?" Ji Dong looked at Chen Sixuan who was wearing a green dress and couldn't help but be a little surprised. The night was as cold as water, and the bright moonlight shone on her beautiful face that no longer had any cover. Ji Dong couldn't help but be a little dazed. He wanted to forcefully pull his gaze away, but his body's subconscious didn't want to no matter what.
Chen Sixuan smiled sweetly and said, "Of course I'm waiting for you. How can I sleep peacefully if you don't come back?" As soon as she finished speaking, her fair and tender face couldn't help but blush, making her look even more beautiful than before.
"What are you waiting for me for …" Ji Dong wanted to refute her, but before he could continue, Chen Sixuan had already rushed to say: "Teacher Ji Dong, since you're already back, then I'll go back to rest. I've already placed your change of clothes on the bed in your room." After saying this, she turned and ran away.
Looking at her graceful back, Ji Dong's eyes couldn't help but soften a little. If it was said that when Chen Sixuan first came into contact with him, he still felt that she had a certain purpose, but now he didn't feel that way at all. With his Soul Strength, how could he not see whether a person's feelings were sincere or not? On this journey, Chen Sixuan could be said to have taken care of him in every possible way, but she didn't pester him at all. Even if he wanted to reject her, he couldn't find the slightest reason to do so. Chen Sixuan's actions were simply impeccable. There was something that even Ji Dong himself didn't realize, but he was getting more and more used to Chen Sixuan's care. He kept telling himself that it was fine as long as he didn't accept her.
Returning to his room, he took a bath and picked up the change of clothes on the bed. Ji Dong couldn't help staring blankly for a moment. Recently, he'd been wearing the simplest cotton clothes, this was something he'd specially told Chen Sixuan. But today, Chen Sixuan brought him the luxurious white and silver clothes, the same matching couple outfit as hers.
Looking at these clothes, without waiting for Ji Dong to frown, he also saw a slip of paper in the clothes. On it was written a line of graceful small characters: "Teacher Ji Dong, tomorrow at the Heavenly Stem Academy, you're representing our Blazing Academy. How can you be too shabby? People need clothes, you look the most handsome in these clothes."
Ji Dong helplessly shook his head. Putting the outer clothes to one side, he changed into the clean underwear. He had to admit that this Princess Xuan was really thoughtful. Was she really a princess? As a princess, how could she lower herself to take care of him like this!
A faint fragrance wafted from the clean clothes. Ji Dong was already used to this fragrance. It was light and elegant, even carrying a faint milky flavor. It smelled indescribably comfortable. He also didn't know what kind of spice it was.
Of course he didn't know that the smell on his clothes wasn't any spice at all. Every time Chen Sixuan prepared a change of clothes for him, she'd sit there in a daze while holding the clothes. She'd feel as if she was holding Ji Dong, and that fragrance was simply her body fragrance. When Ji Dong and the Flaming Bar were together before, the Flaming Bar's body only had a peculiar flame fragrance, a very special kind of smell. The Flaming Bar wasn't human after all, her body was condensed from energy. But the current Chen Sixuan had the unique smell of a human girl, naturally something Ji Dong didn't know.
Early the next morning, there was no need for Ji Dong's orders. All the Blazing Academy students had already gathered outside the hotel, each of them in high spirits, their eyes revealing unconcealable excitement. They were finally going to the Heavenly Stem Academy, the pilgrimage destination for all Wizard Academies. Moreover, this time they were going as exchange participants, or even challengers.
Three months ago, when they heard Ji Dong talk about this exchange, even more people thought it was a fantasy story. But today, three months later, there were already very few people who still had this kind of idea. Confidence came from strength, and now each of them had this kind of intense confidence, not only in themselves, but also in their teacher Ji Dong.
