"That's different. We just happened to be lacking divine crystals back then, so we had to use every single one of them to their fullest potential. Naturally, we had to plan carefully and use them sparingly. However, it's different now. We don't lack divine crystals anymore, so we obviously don't need to be as frugal as before, "Jian Chen smiled. He glanced at Shangguan Mu 'er and continued, "Most importantly, these high grade divine crystals are all for my wife. No matter how extravagant they are, I don't find them to be a waste."
Shen Jian stared at Jianchen in surprise. He acted like he had just met Jianchen. He said, "Jianchen, after so many years, I really couldn't tell that you were a person who valued women over friends. You sure have hidden yourself well."
Everyone smiled when they heard that. A sliver of awkwardness appeared on Shangguan Mu 'er's face, which was rarely seen. However, there was a sliver of warmth in her eyes.
"I wonder how Xiao Bao is doing right now and how he's doing on the Tian Yuan Continent. However, with Xiao Bao's strength, there's probably no one who can bully him in the lower world." Shangguan Mu 'er could not help but think of Shangguan Aojian, who was still on the Tian Yuan Continent. An undisguised longing appeared in her eyes.
Jianchen saw through Shangguan Mu 'er's thoughts. Jianchen stood up and arrived beside her. He gently held her slender hand and said gently, "Mu' er, I can already cast down teleportation formations that can cross divine kingdoms now. I believe I'll be able to cast down teleportation formations that can cross worlds before long. Returning home is just around the corner."
Shangguan Mu 'er also held Jianchen's hand gently and nodded slowly. She was filled with anticipation for the day she returned home.
Not only was her son on the Tian Yuan Continent, but her father, Hao Wu, was also there.
"I hope my father can last until the day I return home. But now that the origin energy of the Tian Yuan Continent is gradually recovering and it's connected to the World of Forsaken Saints, reaching the Origin realm shouldn't be a problem with my father's talent, "Shangguan Mu 'er thought. Her prejudice towards Hao Wu gradually vanished.
Out of all the things he had obtained from the Mo family, he only took a few things that were useful to him from the ancestor's Space Ring. He either distributed the rest or placed them in the treasury of the Tian Yuan clan.
After distributing the items, Jianchen had a small gathering with the people of the Tian Yuan Continent before entering his personal room.
This was a secret room deep underground. Fist-sized luminous pearls were embedded in the walls and ceiling, shining with the gentle light of the Saints' World at all times.
Jianchen sat in the centre of the secret room. He held the spatial saint artifact he had obtained from the ancestor of the Mo family's Space Ring.
In the next moment, Jian Chen vanished from the secret room. Only the fist-sized spatial saint artifact that seemed like a divine hall hovered in the air.
Jianchen silently appeared in the spatial saint artifact. Over twenty elders of the Mo family sat before him. They were all doing their best to break through Jianchen's seal. All of them were covered in blood, and their faces were pale. They seemed haggard and extremely weak.
Beside them, some of the jade bottles used to store pills were already empty, and were thrown around chaotically.
"Don't waste your energy. I carry this spatial saint artifact with me. Even if you break through the seal, you won't be able to change anything. I'll sense it as soon as you break through the seal, "Jianchen said indifferently as he stood with his hands behind his back.
Clearly, the Gods of the Mo family had not sensed Jianchen's arrival. The moment Jianchen's voice rang out, all of them shuddered and snapped open their eyes.
However, all of their gazes towards Jianchen were filled with anger and deep resentment.
"Patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan, even if the ancestor has grievances with you, he has already been killed by you. We elders of the Mo family have never offended you, nor have we offended anyone from the Tianyuan family. Why are you trying to kill us all?" A God from the Mo family said bitterly. He stared at Jianchen firmly as his resentment became unprecedentedly intense.
"I think many of you have already guessed the reason. You just refuse to believe it. That's right. I have indeed tried to kill your Mo family for revenge for these mortal women. Eliminating your Mo family will save the lives of many mortal women, "Jianchen said coldly. His eyes were icy-cold. He showed no sympathy towards the Gods of the Mo family at all.
"Hahaha, mortals are only ants. You're actually trying to kill so many Gods for the sake of these ants. Patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan, Old Man doesn't know whether your actions are chivalrous or foolish. If it were Old Man, he would try to subdue these elders and get them to submit to him so that they can become a great help to the clan, "an Old Man laughed aloud as he stared at Jianchen with shining eyes.
Jianchen's face did not change at all. He shook his head gently and said, "I don't need to kill innocent people." As he said that, a golden thread silently appeared in Jianchen's hand. With a thought, the golden thread wrapped around all the elders before dragging them to another location.
There was a small village on the other side of the spatial saint artifact. All the mortal women the Mo family had captured lived there, relying on farming to make a living.
When Jianchen dragged the Gods bound by the Primordial Godsilk to the village, all the people there were stunned. Many pregnant women walked out with their big bellies and stared at Jianchen's group curiously.
These women were all born on a yin day and month. They were not very old, and there were even a few girls who did not even seem to be ten years old. Clearly, they were the people who had been captured recently.
Men, on the other hand, only made up 20% of these women. The purpose of their existence was self-evident.
"Who are you?" At this moment, a burly man stepped forward. He stared at Jianchen's group cautiously.
Jianchen explained the situation to all the people trapped there.
When the women learnt that they had been captured and that only death awaited them in the end, all of them fell silent. Sorrow filled their eyes.
Some of them had only been captured after they had reached adulthood, so they knew about the outside world.
There were also some people who had been captured when they were infants. They had only heard about the outside world, but they had never seen it with their own eyes.
"We thought that when the child was born, we would be able to leave this place and return home. But we didn't expect that the reality would be so cruel …" A woman cried bitterly. She was filled with grief.
"Don't worry. I've already destroyed the Mo family. These people are elders of the Mo family. If you want revenge, this is your chance," Jianchen tossed out the Startling Rainbow sword. It directly stabbed into the ground before the women.
