"In other words, there's no room for negotiation?" Sei Itō narrowed his eyes and said indifferently.
"Sir, please change your request." Ji Fa said.
"Hmph, you won't give me the Hetu, and you won't give me the Xiqi. Marquis Xi Bo, do you really think I'm easy to bully?!" Sei Itō sneered.
"Apart from these two things, sir, please make your request clear. If I can do it, I won't go back on my words!" Ji Chang finally argued.
"Forget it. Zhu Que, see the guests out! "Sei Itō turned his head and ordered Zhu Que beside him.
"Yes!" Zhu Que replied, then turned to look at Marquis Xi Bo and the others and said, "Marquis Xi Bo, everyone, please."
"In that case, what are we waiting for? Let's just take down this lousy mayor. I don't believe that he won't hand over Fa 'er!" Yi Youzi, who had turned into a short and fat man, slammed the short table in front of him, stood up, and shouted angrily.
Then, without waiting for Ji Chang and the others to respond, he rushed to Sei Itō and reached out his hand to grab Sei Itō's chest.
"Do it!" Seeing his senior brother like this, Ji Chang didn't hesitate anymore. He immediately ordered and attacked Zhu Que and the surrounding soldiers of Piaomiao City with the Captain of Ceremonies and the Captain of Ceremonies.
"How dare you!" Zhu Que shouted angrily and faced Ji Chang.
"Bang!"
When the two palms collided, Ji Chang and Zhu Que involuntarily took a step back.
"This girl has such a strong inner force cultivation!" Ji Chang exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the Vermillion Bird.
"As expected of the Marquis Xi Bo. Such strong strength. If it weren't for the increase in strength from the Dual Cultivation with the mayor and the newly learned Indigo Sea Technique, I would have been defeated." Zhu Que, who felt Ji Chang's powerful palm power, also secretly said in her heart.
"But. I, Zhu Que, am not the same Zhu Que as before! "
After thinking, Zhu Que's figure flashed. The surging vitality made the image of a firebird appear behind her. She waved her hands. Like two long blades with wings, she slashed at Ji Chang with a strong pressure.
Ji Chang's expression did not change. He raised his hand and unleashed a move, Indefinite Universe.
What was the meaning of Heaven and Earth being indefinite? It was the meaning of the endless changes of Heaven and Earth. Therefore, after Ji Chang received the Vermilion Bird's two palms, his right hand suddenly stretched forward and struck the Vermilion Bird's chest and abdomen through the gap created by the Vermilion Bird's attack.
"Bang!"
"Hmm?" Ji Chang felt that something was amiss. His palm force was like a clay ox in the sea. There was no tangible feeling at all. On the other hand, the Vermillion Bird, after using the Indigo Azure Sea — Abyssal Force to resolve the crisis, she did not hesitate and blasted another wave of force towards Ji Chang.
The Qi force connected with the yuan qi and turned into a surging wave that pushed Ji Chang away from the Vermilion Bird.
"Book of the Chaos, huh …" Ji Chang muttered as he recalled the information about the former Misty City's City Lord and the Four-Star Underground Generals.
At this time, the aura around the Vermilion Bird changed, faintly evolving into the image of a huge whale. It opened its mouth wide, revealing sharp teeth that shone with cold light as it bombarded Ji Chang.
Indigo Sea, Whale Swallowing Power.
Ji Chang's expression changed slightly. But he knew that no matter how powerful a large-scale attack was, there was bound to be a flaw. Therefore, he did not panic and immediately moved his mind. He gathered his power on his palms and put his palms together to form the tip of a spear. He used an explosive move to attack the Vermilion Bird.
It was just as he had expected. As soon as the two came into contact, the whale formed by yuan qi immediately shattered from the middle. This allowed him to appear in front of the Vermilion Bird without any obstruction and break her protective Qi force … However, just as his attack was about to land on the Vermilion Bird's body. Ji Chang suddenly changed his hands, changing from a stab to a palm, and slapped the Vermilion Bird's chest.
"Bang!"
Immediately, the Vermilion Bird felt a pain in her chest. Her body involuntarily flew backwards.
…
"Rashly getting angry is not something a cultivator should do." Sei Itō, who was sitting behind the short table, stretched out his right hand. His index and middle fingers formed a sword and stabbed towards Yi Youzi's palm.
"Pfft!"
A clear muffled sound rang out. Yi Youzi frowned and withdrew his right hand. His left hand formed a fist and once again punched towards Sei Itō's cheek.
"This Daoist master wants to subdue demons and eliminate devils right now. I don't care if I'm angry or not!" Yi Youzi said fiercely.
"Then Daoist Master Ming, your mental state cultivation is not enough. No wonder you've been cultivating for so long but still haven't been able to ascend to the Immortal Realm."
Sei Itō flipped his right hand and moved it next to Yi Youzi's fist. He pressed a finger against Yi Youzi's meridian. Yi Youzi instantly felt his arm ache and become powerless. Without any threat, his fist brushed past Sei Itō's ear and hit empty air.
"How dare you talk about immortals when you're an evil cultivator!?" Yi Youzi snorted coldly and sneered. At the same time, the innate yuan qi in his body trembled and broke through the sealed meridian on his wrist. He flipped his palms vertically and sent two gusts of wind towards Sei Itō.
"Daoist Master Ming, you're too extreme."
Sei Itō's body quickly moved back and brushed past Yi Youzi's palm wind to dodge the attack. Then, he formed four fingers into a spear and thrust his arm towards Yi Youzi's chest.
Yi Youzi quickly retracted his right arm and struck out horizontally. He slapped Sei Itō's forearm and pushed it away. At the same time, he turned his body sideways and used his leg to release the fifth move of the Innate Qiankun Method, Thunderclap Ninth Heaven.
In an instant, more than a dozen kicks, kicks, and thrusts were aimed at Ito Sei's body, shrouding him.
Sei Itō didn't panic. He waved his left hand and also created palm shadows that blocked Yi Youzi's attacks one by one. In the end, with a muffled bang, he and Yi Youzi were both pushed back.
At this moment, the figure of Zhu Que, who was sent flying by Ji Chang, flew to Sei Itō's side.
Sei Itō's left palm moved forward and pressed against Zhu Que's back. He bent his arm slightly and quickly transferred the power transmitted from Zhu Que's body to his feet. In an instant, a "kacha" crisp sound was heard, and fine cracks spread from under Ito Sei's feet.
Then, Sei Itō flipped his arm and gently placed Zhu Que on the ground.
At the same time, Yi Youzi and Ji Chang, as well as the Captain of Li and the Captain of Shu who had finished off the two Misty City guards, all stood in front of Sei Itō.
"City Lord …" Zhu Que called out in a low voice.
"Step aside." Sei Itō said indifferently.
"Yes." Zhu Que responded, then turned around and retreated to the side of the hall.
"Let this City Lord play with you guys. Just treat it as a game in this boring time." Sei Itō looked at Yi Youzi, Ji Chang, Captain of Li, and Captain of Shu Shuang and smiled.
"Extremely arrogant!" Yi Youzi snorted.
"Whether I'm arrogant or not, you'll know in a moment." Sei Itō chuckled. "However, I still hope that you guys can show me your true abilities. Otherwise, I can only bear the pain of leaving you guys here and then send troops to take over Xiqi City."
As soon as these words came out, Ji Chang, Captain of Li, and Captain of Shu Shuang's expression immediately changed. Xiqi City was their foundation and they couldn't allow others to touch it, not to mention this group of vicious people from Misty City. When the time came, the Xiqi City that they had painstakingly managed might be destroyed by this group of evil people. This was something they absolutely couldn't allow. Therefore, Ji Chang, Captain of Li, and Captain of Shu Shuang all had the intention to kill Sei Itō, the new Misty City Lord who dared to directly take over Xiqi City.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire hall became somber.
However, just as the two groups were about to start fighting, a loud cry full of surprise rang out in the hall.
"Father!"
"Fa 'er!?" Ji Chang was shocked when he heard this. He turned his head to look in the direction of the gate and said in surprise.
That's right, the person who came was Ji Fa.
As early as when Xiqi City's army arrived at Misty City, Ji Fa learned from the surrounding maids that his father, Marquis of the West, Ji Chang, was coming. He thought that he could finally see his father this time. However, what he didn't expect was that every time he wanted to see Ji Chang, there would always be maids or guards who would dissuade him, not allowing him to see Ji Chang.
If this was any other place, Ji Fa might have already made a scene. Unfortunately, this was Misty City, the place where his nominal teacher Sei Itō lived. Even if he didn't give face to the monk, he couldn't be presumptuous here. Therefore, he could only return to his room sullenly. However, he was unwilling to just stay there like this. Thus, he thought of his own martial arts. Then, while the maids and guards were unprepared, he used his qinggong to run out of the room. First, he found the embroidered lieutenant who was also not sent out. Then, he brought her with him to the place where the banquet was being held.
"Father!" Seeing Ji Chang, Ji Fa could no longer control the longing in his heart and hurriedly ran towards Ji Chang. Ji Chang was the same.
"This won't do." Seeing that the two of them were about to hug each other, Ito Sei couldn't help but shake his head. Then he raised his hand and pointed forward. There was no strange light, but Ji Fa's figure was like a statue. He stopped abruptly in the middle of his movement.
"Fa 'er!?" Ji Chang's expression changed drastically.
"Second Young Master." Captain of Shu Shuang, who was a step slower, also exclaimed.
"Bastard, what did you do to Fa 'er?" Yi Youzi, who had also noticed Ji Fa's change, said angrily.
"Don't worry, he's still alive. However, if I don't get what I want, you can forget about taking him away." Sei Itō said indifferently.
"My lord, don't worry. The City Lord and Goddess Nuwa have an agreement to teach Second Young Master for a year and teach him the martial arts from the Book of the Chaos. Therefore, Second Young Master's life won't be in danger for a year." Seeing that Ji Chang was worried about the child, the captain of Shu Shuang hurriedly explained.
"What!?" Hearing this, Ji Chang, Yi Youzi, Heli, and Captain of Shu Shuang all had expressions of shock and disbelief.
Seeing Ji Chang and the others' expressions, Captain of Shu Shuang could only nod with a bitter smile to confirm that they hadn't heard wrong. Then, he paused and said, "Furthermore, the City Lord has promised this subject that no matter what, he will release Second Young Master after a month. Second Young Master can go to the capital to see His Majesty. However, this subject isn't sure if he will capture Second Young Master after that."
