Ji Dong sighed and said, "Senior Brother, I understand what you mean. The Earth Dragon Ancestor is the one who has the highest chance of defeating the Dark Divination. However, the Earth Dragon Ancestor has already fused with the Three Harmony Mountain Range. If we want him to defeat the Dark Divination, we'll have to lure the Dark Divination here. That won't be an easy task. Furthermore, we can't accurately judge the strength of the Dark Five-star Mainland. Who knows what the situation is like with the Dragon Clan on their side? Hence, I have an idea that I'd like to discuss with everyone. No matter what happens in the future, it's most important for us to improve our strength as much as possible. Only when we're strong enough can we adapt to any situation.
"I believe everyone can feel that the density of the magical elements in the Dragon Valley is at least five to ten times that of the outside world. If we cultivate here, we'll definitely be able to achieve twice the results with half the effort. Furthermore, there are so many powerful dragons here. Given our current relationship with the Dragon Clan, as well as the father-daughter relationship between Ah Jin and the Earth Dragon Ancestor, I believe it won't be difficult for us to get some help from the Dragon Clan.
If we can ask the Dragon Clan to help us with actual combat training, it will definitely further stimulate our potential. Furthermore, we should be able to choose our magical beast companions from the Dragon Clan in the next few days. I've already discussed this with the Dragon Emperor. It's essential for all of you to familiarize yourselves with your magical beast companions in the Dragon Valley. Once we have our own mounts and cultivate here for as long as possible, our overall strength will rise to another level. When that time comes, it'll be time for us to head to the core world. "
"What I have to tell everyone is that although the Flaming Bar is my wife, I've only been to the eighteenth floor where the Flaming Bar lives. I don't know much about the core world, so I can't let anyone take the risk. This time, I think we'll need at least a year or two to diligently cultivate in the Dragon Valley. During this time, we'll be able to focus on our martial arts and the Five Elemental Cycle Formation. We'll also be able to build rapport with our magical beast companions in the Dragon Valley. Once we have our own mounts and cultivate as long as possible, our overall strength will rise to another level. When that time comes, it'll be time for us to head to the core world."
Although Ji Dong was the Heavenly Stem Holy King in name, he had never placed his position higher than his companions. He would definitely discuss important matters with everyone.
Fury was the first to nod in agreement. "Ji Dong is right. What we need the most right now is time. We must make every second count and cultivate diligently. As long as the Dragon clan allows it, this Dragon Valley is undoubtedly the most suitable place for us to cultivate."
The others also nodded in agreement. However, at this moment, the person whom everyone thought would be the least likely to raise any objections spoke up.
"Teacher Ji Dong, I'm afraid I can't stay here for more than a year or two," Chen Sixuan said. She looked at Ji Dong with her big, clear eyes.
Ji Dong was stunned for a moment. He was used to Chen Sixuan's support for everything he did. When he suddenly heard that she couldn't stay here all the time, he couldn't help but feel a little stunned.
"Sixuan, do you have something you need to deal with?" Ji Dong asked doubtfully. He had made the decision to let everyone stay here to cultivate after careful consideration. He didn't know how long it would take for Ajin to awaken his dragon bloodline if he stayed with the Earth Dragon Ancestor. If his companions could cultivate here, it would obviously be a shortcut for them to improve their strength. Since he could learn many things from the battle with the Dragon Monarch, he believed that his companions could also improve more through sparring with the dragons and cooperating with their chosen dragon companions.
Chen Sixuan nodded and said, "I do have something to take care of. Teacher Ji Dong, I'm sorry. This matter is very important to me, and also to our Dongmu Empire. I must return to my country."
Ji Dong frowned and asked, "When will it be?"
Chen Sixuan thought about it and said, "In about half a year.
Ji Dong said in a low voice, "Sixuan, you have to understand that you're no longer just the princess of the Dongmu Empire. At the same time, you're also a member of the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples. Without you, the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples will lack an attribute."
Chen Sixuan lowered her head. Ji Dong didn't see the sly glint in her eyes. She said, "Teacher Ji Dong, but this matter is too important to me. If I don't go back, the Dongmu Empire might even be in danger of being destroyed."
Hearing her words, everyone was shocked. Fury couldn't help but ask, "Is it that serious? Then you should go back when the time comes. Once you've chosen a magical beast companion, with the flying speed of a dragon, I believe it won't take too long to return to the Dongmu Empire. "
Chen Sixuan nodded silently. She then raised her head to peek at Hyōhime. Ji Dong's expression didn't look too good. It was obvious that he was a little dissatisfied with her returning to the Dongmu Empire.
In fact, even Ji Dong himself didn't know that in his heart, he was already somewhat inseparable from Chen Sixuan. Ever since Chen Sixuan was by his side, all of his daily life had been taken care of by Chen Sixuan. During battles, Chen Sixuan would even fuse with his soul.
Wood feeds fire, and she was even better than Yao Qianshu. When he suddenly heard that Chen Sixuan wanted to leave, Ji Dong's first reaction was to be unwilling. Moreover, Chen Sixuan was the one who had been introduced to the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples. If she left and didn't return, Ji Dong wouldn't be able to explain it to his companions.
Miao Miao walked to Chen Sixuan's side and held her hand. She said, "Sixuan, we're all together to deal with the crisis five years later. We Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples are a whole. If you want to go back, we won't stop you. But can you tell us what you're going back for? That way, we'll all have some idea."
Recently, perhaps it was because they shared a common enemy, Miao Miao and Chen Sixuan had become very close. The two women often discussed how to deal with the two brothers, Ji Dong and Fury. When Miao Miao spoke to Chen Sixuan, her back was facing Ji Dong and Fury. As she spoke, she winked at Chen Sixuan. When the two women's eyes met, they revealed a knowing smile.
Chen Sixuan said, "This time, I'm going back to break off the engagement."
"Break off the engagement?" As soon as these two words came out, the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples were in an uproar. Everyone looked at each other and couldn't accept it for a moment. In the eyes of the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples, Chen Sixuan had always followed Ji Dong. Although Ji Dong had never expressed his acceptance of her, even Lan Baoer had sadly regarded her as Ji Dong's woman. Ah Jin, who was cold and arrogant in everyone's eyes, no longer objected to her being with Ji Dong. However, no one had expected that Chen Sixuan was already engaged.
"You're engaged?" Fury looked at Chen Sixuan and his face immediately darkened. He was very happy that Chen Sixuan had chased after Ji Dong. He was also one of the people who hoped that Chen Sixuan would succeed the most. Only when Ji Dong truly accepted her would he be able to recover from the grief brought about by the death of the Flaming Bar. At this moment, when he heard that Chen Sixuan was engaged, Fury's heart immediately surged with an intense anger.
Chen Sixuan nodded and said, "When I was very young, Father arranged a marriage for me. Calculating the time, by the end of this year, it should be time to fulfill the engagement. Brother Fury, you should also know that as a member of the Royal Family, we have no say in our marriage. Moreover, when the engagement was made, I was only a little girl. However, the person I like is Teacher Ji Dong. Regardless of whether Teacher Ji Dong accepts my love, I will only like him. Therefore, I must make a trip back to the Eastern Wood Empire and settle this matter. After that, I can wholeheartedly face the war between the Dark and Light Continents with everyone."
Listening to Chen Sixuan's undisguised confession, Ji Dong could not help but turn his head. He did not dare to meet her clear eyes. Miaomiao secretly gave Chen Sixuan a thumbs up. Lan Baoer, who was not far away, widened her eyes. She also liked Ji Dong, but if she had to confess her love in front of so many people, she would not be able to do it no matter what. Moreover, when Chen Sixuan said these words, her eyes were firmly fixed on Ji Dong.
Everyone could feel her determination.
Fury's expression softened. He said, "If that's the case, then you should settle this matter as soon as possible. However, I heard you say that if you do not go back to settle this matter, the Dongmu Empire will be in danger of being destroyed. Could it be that the man you are engaged to is actually so strong? Is he a prince of some country?"
Chen Sixuan shook her head and said, "He is not a prince. If you must say who they are, I think the word 'hermit' is the most suitable to describe them. Everyone should still remember that during the Devil Master Union's Elder Council, the Dongmu Empire also elected two elders. Those two elders live in seclusion in the Dongmu Empire. They can be said to be the pillars of the empire. They are both Supreme-Being experts. At the same time, they are also the great-grandparents of my fiancé. My fiancé is the heir of this hermit family."
Hearing her say this, Fury's expression became a little more serious. Ji Dong could not help but turn his head. With two Supreme-Being experts as support, it was no wonder that Chen Sixuan was so serious. Indeed, for a country, a hermit family with two Supreme-Being experts was enough to bring great trouble to the entire country.
Miaomiao frowned and said, "If that's the case, it will not be easy for you to break off the engagement. You are the most beautiful woman in the world. Will they agree to it? What if they don't agree? Although you are now a Heavenly Stem Saint and have the status of a princess, they have two Supreme-Being experts around. If they want to capture you and marry you, there is nothing you can do! "
Chen Sixuan's eyes were filled with determination. She said, "No matter what, I will definitely handle this matter well. If I want to marry someone, I will only marry one person in my life." As she said this, her gaze fell on Ji Dong. She said, "If I insist on marrying someone else, the worst outcome will be my corpse. I can't defeat two Supreme-Being experts, but can't I decide whether I live or die?" She said this last sentence very resolutely.
Fury said, "How can we do that? You're a Holy Disciple of the Yimu Heavenly Stem. Even a Supreme-Being can't force you. Big Brother Fury will handle this. When you return, I'll go with you. I want to see who dares to force you."
"Who are you to care about? You are not legitimate. Who are you to Sixuan?" Miao Miao moved sideways and came to Fury's side. As she spoke, she stretched out her small hand and pinched Fury's thigh hard.
Fury felt the pain and turned his head to look at Miao Miao. He saw that Miao Miao was giving him an unhappy look. Fury looked rough on the outside, but his thoughts were extremely meticulous. With Miao Miao's reminder, he immediately came to his senses. He slapped his forehead and said, "That's right. We can't do this without a good reason. If we want to break off the engagement, we must first have a good reason. Sigh, what should we do?"
Chen Sixuan smiled sadly and said, "It's nothing. I will handle it myself. Everyone, don't worry about me."
"Sixuan, how can this be? We are all one. If something happens to you, how can we just sit back and do nothing? Big Brother Fury's reputation is indeed unjustified, but my Master's reputation is justified! " This time, it was Du Xin 'er who spoke. Among the Heavenly Stem Saints, she was definitely the most thoughtless one. When she saw Chen Sixuan's pitiful appearance, she could not help but interject.
Chen Sixuan looked at Du Xin 'er and really had the urge to rush up and hug her and kiss her. Xin' er's words were too timely.
Ji Dong looked at Du Xin 'er coldly and said, "How am I legitimate?"
Du Xin 'er said, "Teacher, the one Sixuan likes is you. If you help Sixuan break off the engagement, it will naturally be legitimate."
"Nonsense." Ji Dong said angrily, "It's her business that she likes me. She and I are only teacher and student and friends. There is no love between a man and a woman. What reason do I have to help her break off the engagement?"
Du Xin 'er widened her eyes and said, "Teacher, you can't be so heartless. We can all see how Sixuan treats you. It's too sad for you to say that."
Miao Miao immediately chimed in from the side and said, "That's right. Sixuan treats you so well. Even if you don't want her, you can still help her at a critical moment. Besides, what's wrong with Sixuan? She's the tenth most beautiful woman in the world. I can't help but feel pity for her. You're simply a blockhead."
"Enough." Ji Dong let out a low roar, and a cold and deathly aura was suddenly released from his body. Everyone shivered and immediately shut their mouths.
Ji Dong's gaze swept across everyone's faces and said, "I've said it many times. In this life, I will only love Flaming Bar alone. Emotional matters are my own business. No one has the right to decide for me."
