The secret room was so quiet that even the drop of a needle could be heard.
Ji Tianxing and Martial God Taihao's clone looked at each other in silence.
After a long while, Ji Tianxing finally spoke and broke the silence in the secret chamber.
"Greetings, Divine Master," he greeted Martial God Taihao with a cupped fist salute.
Martial God Taihao finally came back to his senses. His expression was complicated as he said slowly, "You're too similar … Not only do you look the same, even your bloodline and aura are the same!"
Ji Tianxing had been mistaken for Martial God Taihao a few times before, so he wasn't surprised by Martial God Taihao's reaction.
He smiled and asked, "Divine Master, are you talking about Kenshin?"
"Of course." Martial God Taihao nodded and looked at him with sparkling eyes. He asked, "If your cultivation wasn't so weak, I would have thought that he had returned."
Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows and smiled meaningfully. He asked, "If he really did return, how would you react?"
Martial God Taihao was clearly taken aback. He looked at Ji Tianxing playfully and said, "Although I don't believe that someone who has been dead for a thousand years can come back to life, I don't believe that someone who has been dead for a thousand years can be reborn.
However, if he really does come back to life, I'll be happy for him. "
Ji Tianxing nodded and thought to himself, "In Kenshin's memory, Kenshin and Martial God Taihao were good friends. After all, Kenshin had taught Martial God Taihao before.
They had no grudges or conflicts of interest. Martial God Taihao should be trustworthy. "
Martial God Taihao sighed and said with a wry smile, "Unfortunately, you're Ji Tianxing. You can only be Kenshin's successor. You're not him …
Besides, I can guess what you're thinking.
You don't need to test my attitude. If I was hostile to you, you would've disappeared a long time ago. How could you still be alive? "
Ji Tianxing nodded and said calmly, "I've made a fool of myself in front of the Divine Lord. But I still want to ask, why did the Divine Lord summon me?"
Martial God Taihao said in a deep voice, "Firstly, I would like to meet an old friend from a thousand years ago. You might not be him, but you look very much like him.
Secondly, I owe him a favor and have never had the chance to return it.
If I return this favor to his successor, perhaps he will feel gratified in the underworld. "
Martial God Taihao looked at Ji Tianxing sternly and said solemnly, "Ji Tianxing, I know everything that has happened in the past six months since you entered Mount Godseal.
Your talent is extraordinary, and your future is promising. As expected of the successor of Kenshin.
Although you are now the number one God's disciple, a God's disciple is only equivalent to my disciple in name. You can't be compared to the Son of God.
Now, I want to take you in as my last disciple!
If you agree, you will be my only disciple, and your status will be equivalent to the Eldest Son of God! "
Ji Tianxing frowned when he heard Martial God Taihao's words, and a look of shock flashed across his eyes.
He knew very well that although Martial God Taihao had 99 children, he had never taken in a single disciple in his entire life.
If he agreed, he would become Martial God Taihao's only disciple, and his status would instantly rise by more than ten times!
Martial God Taihao's last disciple would definitely be one of the most respected figures in the Taihao Kingdom!
Even in the entire Shenwu Continent, he would be one of the most respected figures in the world!
If Ji Tianxing agreed, then he would have a meteoric rise, reaching the heavens in a single bound!
From then on, he would be able to reside in the Taihao Kingdom and enjoy the best treatment and cultivation resources.
With Martial God Taihao as his backer, almost no one would be able to threaten him.
However, Ji Tianxing still shook his head and refused after weighing the pros and cons for a moment.
"Lord Deity, Kenshin gave you pointers in the past, but unfortunately, he left this continent before you could return the favor.
This matter caused you to feel regret in your heart. Now, you want to return this favor to me.
I can understand your feelings, and I am very grateful for your decision.
However, I am very sorry that I cannot agree to it. "
Ji Tianxing's tone was very calm, but it was also very stubborn and resolute.
Martial God Taihao frowned and revealed a look of disbelief. He asked, "Ji Tianxing, have you really thought it through? You actually rejected me so straightforwardly?
I know that your current situation is very bad. Not only are you enemies with the Outcloud Empire, but you are also being targeted by the powerhouses of the Ghost Clan.
If you agree to this matter and become my last disciple, all of your problems will be easily solved! "
Ji Tianxing shook his head and smiled. "A treasured sword's edge is sharpened, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold.
Back then, Kenshin roamed the Shenwu Continent and slaughtered his way from the west to the east. In a short thirty years, he became a Saint.
What he relied on was not the protection of powerhouses, but the sword in his hand and his tenacious heart.
As Kenshin's successor, I naturally want to imitate him.
No matter what difficulties or dangers I face, I will solve them myself. "
Martial God Taihao listened quietly and stared at him in silence for a long time.
After about ten breaths of time, Martial God Taihao revealed a gentle smile and nodded. "You really are too much like him. How great would it be if you were him...
Since you have such aspirations, I will not force you.
Of course, I will still deal with the matter of the Outcloud Empire.
The six great empires have existed for thousands of years in peace and stability. I will not allow anyone to break this balance and cause chaos in the divine kingdoms. "
Ji Tianxing nodded in agreement and asked, "Since the Lord Deity already understands the cause of this matter, how will you deal with it?"
Martial God Taihao said in a dignified tone, "The current chaotic situation was caused by Emperor Outcloud's greed!
If he had not been so greedy, why would he have fallen into your trap and given up on the Outcloud Empire?
I have already ordered the eldest son to lead the Divine Might Legion to the Outcloud Empire to capture Emperor Outcloud.
He will be suppressed in the Divine Kingdom's Endless Black Prison and suffer for a hundred years. "
Ji Tianxing said calmly, "Emperor Outcloud made a grave mistake and committed such a sin. The Lord Deity is only imprisoning him in the prison for a hundred years. You are truly merciful."
Martial God Taihao glanced at him and smiled. "Ji Tianxing, you probably don't know about the Endless Black Prison. Ask Jiu Jiu when you have the chance.
In addition, the Great Emperor Chu Yun was once my disciple and a rare Martial Sage expert. I can't kill him because of this, can I?
Letting him reflect in the Endless Black Prison for a hundred years is already a severe punishment. "
Ji Tianxing saw that Martial God Taihao had made up his mind and did not say anything else.
He naturally hoped that Martial God Taihao would give the order to kill Emperor Outcloud to prevent future troubles.
However, this was not realistic. There were only a dozen Martial Saints in the entire Divine Kingdom. Killing one meant one less.
