Hearing Ji Tianxing's words, Ji Rufeng laughed maniacally.
He roared like a madman, "Bullsh * t!"
"How am I inferior to your father? I'm the second son, and the position of Patriarch should be mine. Why should I pass it to your father? "
"It's your father, Ji Changkong, who took away everything that belonged to me! He's the one who deserves to die! "
Ji Tianxing frowned, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. "Ji Rufeng, you've lost your mind and your mind!"
"Cut the crap. Take your head and accept your punishment!"
With that, he waved his hand and ordered Mu Shan, "Do it!"
Mu Shan accepted the order and leaped toward Ji Rufeng. He waved his sword, and cold light filled the sky.
The eight Shadow Sword Hall experts also attacked, surrounding Ji Rufeng's four guards.
Instantly, sword light flashed within a 20-meter radius, and a fierce wind blew.
The sword light brought with it a violent and fierce wind that spread in all directions, sweeping up the fallen leaves on the ground and sending sand and stones flying.
The dazzling cold light illuminated the dark night.
"Ding Ding Dang Dang" After a series of clanging sounds of swords colliding, the battle ended.
Although Ji Rufeng's four trusted guards were at the first or second level of the Mystic Enlightening Realm, they could not withstand the attacks of the Shadow Sword Hall experts.
Both sides had only exchanged a few blows before the four guards were killed by the Shadow Sword Hall experts. They lay on the ground covered in blood, turning into corpses.
Ji Hao was even more vulnerable. His chest had been pierced by a sword light in the chaotic battle, and he died on the spot.
Ji Rufeng was still alive, but he was also covered in wounds. The sword in his hand had been snatched away, and Mu Shan had a sword pressed against his neck.
Ji Tianxing walked in front of him and shouted with a gloomy face, "Ji Rufeng, you can say your last words now!"
Ji Rufeng's bloodstained face revealed a sinister smile filled with resentment.
"Hahaha … Ji Tianxing! Even if I die here tonight, you and your father won't live for long. You'll be buried with me sooner or later! "
"I'll wait for you in the Yellow Springs. Someone will avenge me! Hahaha … "
With that, Ji Rufeng laughed maniacally.
"Then go to hell!"
Ji Tianxing coldly shouted, waving his sword and piercing his throat.
Ji Rufeng immediately stopped breathing. His eyes were still wide open as his body fell to the ground with a plop.
The mountain peak fell into silence. The night wind blew, dispersing the smell of blood on the ground.
"Deal with these corpses!"
Ji Tianxing ordered Mu Shan before walking towards Ji Hao's corpse.
Ever since he caught up with Ji Rufeng and his son, Ji Hao had been trembling in fear. He hadn't said a single word, which seemed somewhat abnormal.
He had specially observed Ji Hao just now and realized that Ji Hao's build and height were somewhat different from what he remembered.
Ji Tianxing could not help but suspect that there was something wrong with this Ji Hao.
He came to the side of Ji Hao's corpse and used his sword to pry open the hair covering his face, carefully observing Ji Hao's face.
After a while, Ji Tianxing suddenly noticed something and frowned.
"Mu Shan, check Ji Hao's body and see if he was in disguise."
Mu Shan immediately understood what he meant and hurriedly squatted down to examine Ji Hao's face.
He stretched out two fingers and searched Ji Hao's face for a while before ripping off a human skin mask.
Instantly, a dark and ordinary face appeared in front of everyone.
Ji Tianxing looked at the unfamiliar face with a cold glint in his eyes. He said hatefully, "It really is a substitute!"
"Damn that Ji Rufeng, what a scheming old fox. He had already found someone to disguise himself as Ji Hao and fooled us all!"
Mu Shan knelt down on one knee in shame and apologized to Ji Tianxing. "Young Master, it is my negligence. I was careless and was fooled by a substitute, allowing Ji Hao to escape!"
"Young Master, please allow me to redeem myself. I will immediately send people to investigate. We must capture Ji Hao!"
Ji Tianxing thought for a while and nodded. "This matter cannot be delayed. Send people to investigate immediately!"
"Remember, capture him alive!"
"Yes, Young Master!" Mu Shan cupped his fists and immediately ordered the experts of the Shadow Sword Hall to start the operation.
After he passed down the order and arranged the men, the corpses on the mountain peak were also dealt with.
Ji Tianxing led everyone away from the mountain peak and returned to the Imperial City.
…
The next day, noon, the Ji Mansion's main hall.
Ji Tianxing sat on the seat of the Patriarch. Today, he was going to clean up the internal problems and reorganize the Ji Family.
Mu Shan stood beside him with a sword in his hand, looking like a murderous god.
On both sides of the main hall sat Grand Elder Ji Dajiang, four managers with different surnames, and a few elders and elders of the Ji Family.
Third Elder Ji Changhe and five other managers with the surname Ji were forced to kneel in the middle of the main hall by the experts of the Shadow Sword Hall.
Ji Tianxing took out all kinds of evidence and listed the crimes of the five managers with the surname Ji. Then, he announced the punishment in front of everyone.
"Remove the five managers with the surname Ji from their positions and confiscate all their family assets. Then, all five of them will be expelled from the Ji Family and their names will be erased from the genealogy!"
From now on, these five people would no longer be the powerful managers of the Ji Family. They would be reduced to penniless paupers.
Moreover, they would be expelled from the Ji Family and their names would be erased from the genealogy. Even after death, they would not be able to enter the Ji Family's ancestral hall!
To them, this was undoubtedly the most reasonable punishment!
Ji Tianxing's announcement was like a bolt from the blue to the five managers with the surname Ji. They were dumbfounded on the spot.
After regaining their senses, the five managers beat their chests and stamped their feet. They repeatedly kowtowed and begged Ji Tianxing to be lenient and forgive them.
There were even two managers who wailed in front of everyone and slapped themselves in front of Ji Tianxing to express their remorse.
However, what happened in the main hall a few days ago was still vivid in his mind. How could Ji Tianxing forgive them?
At that time, these five managers had helped Ji Tianxing seize power and put pressure on Ji Tianxing. How repulsive were their faces?
Now that things had progressed to this point, even if they wept bitterly and begged for mercy and repented, Ji Tianxing would not be merciful!
After dealing with the five managers with the surname Ji, Ji Tianxing dealt with the Third Uncle, Ji Changhe.
"Third Elder Ji Changhe colluded with Second Elder Ji Rufeng to embezzle the Ji Family's assets and fill their own pockets. They committed all kinds of evil deeds!"
"Ji Changhe! Since you are my father's biological brother, I will give you a lighter punishment. "
"From today onwards, Ji Changhe will be stripped of all his positions and will not interfere in any of the Ji Family's matters. Furthermore, Ji Changhe will be imprisoned in the Long Bamboo Courtyard. He will not be able to take a step out of the courtyard for the rest of his life! "
"If Ji Changhe violates the above punishment in the slightest, he will be executed on the spot!"
After announcing the punishment, Ji Tianxing stared coldly at Ji Changhe and asked, "Ji Changhe, do you have anything else to say?"
The current Ji Changhe did not have the arrogant and complacent attitude he had a few days ago.
His hair was disheveled and he cut a sorry figure. His empty eyes were filled with despair and anger.
He raised his head to look at Ji Tianxing and sneered with a sinister expression. "Haha … Ji Tianxing, the winner is king and the loser is a bandit. I have nothing to say!"
"I just didn't think that Second Brother and I would have underestimated you!"
"You are only a seventeen-year-old youth, but your methods are more decisive and ruthless than your father's!"
