Jiang Wei was convinced.
Jiang Wei was convinced.
Although he was extremely reluctant and didn't want to go against his heart and deceive a general, Jiang Yong's words had shaken him.
If Ye Zichen found out about Xue Mo's condition, he'd absolutely seek revenge.
This wasn't to say he was reckless. The way Jiang Wei saw it, there was a certain chivalrous spirit in his bones. This was true loyalty.
From the moment Ye Zichen entered his line of sight, Jiang Wei had taken note of him.
In his heart, he'd subconsciously viewed Ye Zichen as a rival on the path of the sword. They could compare in private and try their best to surpass each other, but neither of them wanted to see anything happen to the other.
The person who'd injured Xue Mo was too strong. At the very least, he was stronger than they could handle.
If Ye Zichen lost his temper and went looking for trouble with that person, he'd most likely suffer. Given his astonishing background, there was no way he'd let things slide like Great Emperor Xue Yang had.
This was easy to explain …
Sometimes, men would think about the big picture, but most women would not be like that.
The Lord of Seven Stars was Ye Zichen's mother, and the Profound Pavilion's head was his aunt. Both of them could change the fate of the entire god race with a stomp of their feet, and they were women.
The god race was currently plagued with internal and external problems. If these two peak factions took action …
The situation would worsen.
Out of loyalty to his enemy, or for the sake of the greater good, Jiang Wei couldn't let that happen.
He didn't hesitate any longer. Convinced, Jiang Wei followed Jiang Yong to the tavern outside the Divine Martial Academy. Since Ye Zichen had already returned to Heavenly God City, they couldn't waste any more time. They had to stop him before he got there.
As for what they'd say when they saw him, that would be up to them.
However, what they didn't know was that Ye Zichen wasn't returning to the Divine Martial Academy. Even if they knew, they absolutely wouldn't think that cooking was unnecessary.
Such caution and concern were all for the sake of nipping the problem in the bud.
It didn't matter where Ye Zichen was or why he'd returned to Heavenly God City. All they had to do was do what they had to do.
Meanwhile, Ye Zichen had no idea that his return had caused such a chain reaction. He was hurrying to the location Xuan Ji had given him.
When they arrived near the place Xuan Ji had told them about, they heard a deafening roar.
He looked in the direction of the sound and saw dozens of experts standing in the air, releasing their Divine Power with all their might. Countless buildings collapsed in front of their eyes, and the building materials left behind by the collapsed buildings were all recovered. After that, the construction team of dozens of people began the construction task in full swing.
"The efficiency of cultivators is indeed much higher compared to ordinary humans."
In just a short while, he saw the outline of a new building begin to appear in the area where the buildings had been destroyed. At this rate, this place would be completely reconstructed in less than three days.
Ye Zichen couldn't help but sigh. As he sighed, Lady Xuan Ji flashed to his side.
"Aunt."
At that moment, Ye Zichen put away his expression of greeting. The others simply nodded at Xuan Ji.
Pu Jingwan and Yang Jian were Outsiders, and their statuses were rather special. Even if he was a Great Sage, he was now an existence that could firmly suppress Yang Jian. If he still knelt on one knee and greeted like an ordinary person in this realm, it would be unreasonable.
"You got here pretty quickly," laughed Xuan Ji.
In response, Ye Zichen smiled and nodded.
How could they not get here quickly?
Ye Zichen's heart had been racing ever since he'd received news of Xuan Ji's arrival. This was the most important part of his plan.
What made his heart beat even faster was that the Xiao Family was right across from them.
From now on, he'd be neighbors with the Lightning Emperor.
When he'd met with Xuan Ji, he'd asked her to help him buy a plot of land across from the Xiao Family and use it as Upheaval's headquarters. There were several reasons for doing this, but the most important was to put pressure on Xiao Ting.
Xiao Yumei and Xiao Yan were on his side. Xiao Ting was plotting treason. He definitely knew that Ye Zichen, who was protecting them, was absolutely aware of his despicable actions.
Ye Zichen had purposefully set up his headquarters here so he could openly report this to Xiao Ting ….
I know everything. I'm here to keep an eye on you. If you want to cause any trouble, you'd best be careful.
Forget about the Emperor's plotting to betray the human race, let's just talk about the grudge between them.
That was enough for the two of them to sort things out.
Setting up his headquarters here meant that Ye Zichen no longer had to be as cowardly as before. Now, he was strong enough to stand up to the Xiao Family, the Lightning Emperor's successor.
How could Ye Zichen not be excited on such a milestone day?
"Just like you said, I bought up all the land around here. Here's a list of expenses. Take a look and remember to pay me back double. "
She shoved a jade slip into his hands. He probed it with his divine sense, and a vast amount of information poured into his sea of consciousness. It took him a while to process it all. However, this also proved just how much Xuan Ji had paid to buy all this land.
After a few breaths of time, he finally absorbed all the information in the jade slip. When he saw the records, Ye Zichen was speechless.
The expenses were terrifying, so much so that he didn't even dare calculate just how many digits he'd spent.
"Don't think it's expensive. This is the territory of the divine statue. No one is willing to sell this land. You were the one who wanted to build your headquarters right across from the Xiao Family's residence. I had to put aside my pride and bleed profusely to buy this land. Don't forget, double …. "
"I know."
Xiao Ting was one of the strongest factions in Heavenly God City. His location was undoubtedly extraordinary.
Before asking Xuan Ji to buy the land, he'd already prepared himself for a huge expense. However, this expense was so great that he couldn't remain calm. Fortunately, he had the Outside's support, so spending even more didn't matter. All he had to do was buy the land.
"Before, only a few small family clans and the Skyspan Trading Company were here. In truth, the layout of the buildings is pretty good. However, considering that you're a new power, I ordered some people to renovate the place. However, the layout is according to my Profound Pavilion's. That should be fine, right? "asked Xuan Ji.
"No problem, no problem." Ye Zichen nodded. "Have you torn down the Skyspan Trading Company's building? If not, don't. I'll use it."
"You want to build a trading company?"
