The Flying Immortal King, Ji Xuanji, personally went out of the city to invite Ji Changkong and Hei Tian into the Flying Immortal City. This scene was seen by the people in the city.
Very soon, Emperor Ji, who was in the Ji Clan's ancestral land, received the news that Ji Changkong killed Ji Wu and was invited into the Flying Immortal City by Ji Xuanji. This made him extremely angry.
Emperor Ji had spent his entire life scheming, scheming against others, and even scheming against himself. All of this stemmed from his thirst for power. The reason why he was able to sit on the position of the family head was because he schemed against Ji Changkong back then.
Back then, if he had not schemed against Ji Changkong, the person sitting in the Clan Leader's seat would not be him, but Ji Changkong.
Back then, most of the Ji Clan's higher-ups thought highly of Ji Changkong because he was the only Ji Clan disciple that could cultivate the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art to perfection.
The Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art was an invincible cultivation technique passed down by the Ji Clan's Supreme Great Ancestor. Since ancient times, the Ji Clan had produced countless talented disciples, but those that could cultivate the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art to perfection were few and far between.
Most of the Ji Clan's disciples could only cultivate the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art to the entry stage and could not advance any further. However, back then, Ji Changkong cultivated the extremely difficult Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art to the second revolution.
This was something that shocked all of the Ji Clan's higher-ups.
What Emperor Ji feared the most finally happened. Once Ji Changkong returned to the Ji Clan, the matter of him scheming against Ji Changkong back then would be exposed. At that time, not only would he not be able to claim the Clan Leader's seat, but his life would also be in danger.
He knew that one of the elders in the clan was very fond of Ji Changkong back then. Once that ancestor found out that he schemed against Ji Changkong back then, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Although Ji Changkong killed Ji Wu, Ji Wu was the one who sneak-attacked Ji Changkong first, so he deserved to be killed.
However, Ji Wu's death was a huge matter to some people.
"Making enemies before even returning. Very good."
In the Ji Clan's ancestral land, Emperor Ji stood in front of a window and looked up at the sky with a sinister smile on his face.
"Is War Slave here?"
Emperor Ji suddenly said. His voice was not loud, but as soon as he finished speaking, a silhouette silently appeared behind him, bowing and standing.
"Master …"
That battle slave was very respectful towards Empress Ji, and was even a little afraid.
It was a blurry existence, like a shadow. Although it stood behind Empress Ji, it seemed like it could dissipate into the void at any time.
"Go kill that guy."
Emperor Ji retracted his gaze and said indifferently.
"Yes, Master."
After receiving the order, the blurry figure disappeared into the void without a sound.
"Humph! Ji Changkong, although you can kill Ji Wu, you are definitely not a match for the battle slave. This time, you are dead for sure."
Empress Ji's face turned extremely cold.
Just as Emperor Ji sent battle slaves to deal with Ji Changkong, Ji Changkong and Hei Tian were led by the Flying Immortal King's son to the main hall of the City Lord's Residence and sat down.
Then, the Flying Immortal King ordered the servants to prepare food and wine. He wanted to welcome Ji Changkong.
"Nephew Changkong, why did you kill that Ji Wu?"
The Flying Immortal King looked at Ji Changkong in confusion. One must know that Ji Wu was also a disciple of the Ji Clan. No matter what, Ji Changkong shouldn't have killed that guy.
"It's nothing. Since he wanted my life, I could only take his life. It's that simple."
Ji Changkong shrugged and said without a care in the world.
"This …"
When the Flying Immortal King heard this, he didn't know what to say. He didn't know what happened back then, nor did he know that it was all part of Empress Ji's plan.
"That guy, Emperor Ji, must have been living quite well these years."
Ji Changkong suddenly said.
"What …"
The Flying Immortal King didn't expect Ji Changkong to ask such a question. He couldn't help but be stunned. Although he was Ji Changkong's uncle, the current Ji Changkong was no longer the kid from back then.
Right now, the person sitting in front of the Flying Immortal King was a Quasi-Supreme. Even the Flying Immortal King didn't dare to be negligent.
One must know that if Supremes didn't appear, then Quasi-Supremes were the strongest existences. Of course, that was excluding those abnormal Supremes.
"This … I'm not too sure either. I rarely return to the Ancestral Land."
The Flying Immortal King said.
"His good days have come to an end."
Ji Changkong clenched his teeth as an ominous glint flickered in his eyes.
"Okay, let's go eat something first."
At this moment, Hei Tian suddenly said. He already smelled the fragrance of meat coming from the rear palace, causing his appetite to increase.
During their time in the Land of Flying Immortals, Hei Tian and Ji Changkong lived a primitive life of eating raw meat and drinking blood. Now that Hei Tian smelled the fragrance of meat, he immediately stood up.
"Not bad, let's eat first."
When Ji Changkong smelled the fragrance of the meat, his stomach immediately rumbled. This was a primitive reaction, a normal reaction to food.
Actually, with Ji Changkong's cultivation, it didn't matter if he ate or not. However, the Flying Immortal King didn't prepare ordinary dishes.
The Flying Immortal King hurriedly stood up from his seat and led the way. The three of them arrived at the rear hall. The furnishings in the rear hall were very simple. In the middle of the hall was a table with all sorts of steaming hot food placed on it.
Hei Tian quickly sat down and didn't stand on ceremony. He directly grabbed a Red Braised Phoenix and started eating.
That Phoenix was no ordinary bird. It was a powerful creature that inherited the bloodline of the divine bird, the Phoenix. Even Ji Changkong didn't expect the Flying Immortal King to use a Phoenix to cook.
This guy really knew how to enjoy life.
Ji Changkong noticed that aside from the Phoenix, there were also steamed Dragon Carp and roasted Fire Bird eggs on the table. In the middle of the table, there was actually Dragon Crocodile meat stewing in a large pot.
This table of dishes could definitely be considered the most sumptuous in the entire Flying Immortal City. Every dish was cooked from precious spirit beasts or spirit birds.
Not a single dish on the table could be eaten by ordinary cultivators.
Only the Flying Immortal City's City Lord, Ji Xuanji, had such a method.
"Nephew, let's eat," Ji Xuanji said.
"How can I accept this?
"How can I accept that? Haha, then I'll start."
Ji Changkong didn't just use his chopsticks. Instead, he directly used his hands. Just like Hei Tian, he grabbed the food and started eating. He didn't care about his image at all.
"These two gluttons …"
When the Flying Immortal King saw this, he was speechless. He was the City Lord, so he wouldn't be like Ji Changkong and Ji Changkong.
Compared to Ji Changkong and Hei Tian's table manners, the Flying Immortal King was much more refined.
This was the most sumptuous meal that Hei Tian and Ji Changkong had eaten since they were trapped in the Flying Immortal Land. It was also the most delicious meal. All the dishes on the table were swept clean by the two of them.
"Many thanks, Uncle. Let's part ways here."
After Ji Changkong ate and drank his fill, he stood up and planned to leave.
One must know that the Flying Immortal King receiving them so warmly was definitely not a good thing. It was not easy to eat such a meal.
"Dear nephew, please wait."
Seeing that Ji Changkong was about to leave, the Flying Immortal King hurriedly stood up and said. This guy actually wants to eat a free meal and run. It won't be that easy.
"This … Uncle, I still have matters to attend to. I really can't stay for long."
Ji Changkong said in a difficult manner.
Hei Tian watched from the side and was happy. These uncle and nephew were fighting. Let's see who would win.
"Dear nephew, I know you want to return to the Ancestral Land as soon as possible. After all, you've been gone for so long."
Ji Xuanji said.
"Thank you for your understanding, Uncle. Let's part ways here."
Ji Changkong said, then turned around and left.
"Dear nephew, there's a great opportunity before us. Are you willing to let it go just like that?"
Ji Xuanji said loudly.
"What …"
When Ji Changkong heard this, his footsteps immediately stopped. He obtained a good fortune in the Land of Ascension, so he became a quasi-supreme.
Now that he heard that there was another opportunity, he was naturally very curious and wanted to obtain it.
Even Erebus' interest was piqued.
"What opportunity? Tell me about it."
Ji Changkong turned around and said to Ji Xuanji.
"There's a cave in a mountain range ten thousand li away from here. It's a Quasi-Sovereign cave. There might be a Quasi-Sovereign's inheritance in there."
Ji Xuanji said what he knew.
It turned out that not long ago, someone discovered a cave in the Scarlet Demon Ridge ten thousand li away. However, no one could open the cave.
Ji Xuanji had also gone to take a look. It was a cave built by a Quasi-Sovereign. Even he found it difficult to open the door.
The entire abode was sealed by a wave of energy.
If one wanted to enter the cave, they had to break through the force that enveloped the cave. Ji Xuanji originally wanted to return to the Ancestral Land to borrow an Immortal Weapon and break it.
However, no one expected Ji Changkong and Hei Tian to suddenly appear at this time and come to the Flying Immortal City.
Their arrival allowed Ji Xuanji's plan to be carried out.
"A Quasi-Sovereign cave. Let's go take a look."
As Ji Changkong spoke, he walked out.
Hei Tian naturally followed.
The Flying Immortal King also walked out. They directly soared into the sky and left the City Lord's Mansion. They directly left the Flying Immortal City and flew towards the Scarlet Demon Ridge.
Ten thousand li was covered in the blink of an eye in Ji Changkong's eyes. As soon as he arrived, he sensed a powerful aura. The source of this aura was the cave.
"Let me try."
Hei Tian took a step forward and arrived in front of the cave in a flash. Then, he directly threw a punch at the door.
"Boom!"
