Everyone in the hall was discussing animatedly. Some were shocked by Lin Xuan's strength and were secretly fearful of Lin Xuan. As for the Ji Family, after the initial shock, they were filled with righteous indignation.
No matter what, Ji Shangyong was still a member of the Ji Family. Lin Xuan had mercilessly injured Ji Shangyong in front of everyone. This was clearly a slap to the Ji Family's face.
If the Ji Family could not return the favor, then how could they dare to call themselves the number one family of the human race?
"How dare you! How dare you attack our Ji Family! We can't let this go! "
"Kill him! Avenge Ji Shangyong! "
"Hmph! The Ji Family's ancestral teachings are to never compromise! If we don't kill Lin Xuan, how can we face our ancestors! "
Many hot-blooded youths from the Ji Family slammed the table and stood up, their eyes red as they clamored.
However, although they were hot-blooded, they were not idiots.
Even Ji Shangyong, who was at the Perfect Stage of the Heavenly Transformation Realm, could not withstand half a cup of wine from Lin Xuan. With their strength that was not even on par with Ji Shangyong, they would only be sending themselves to their deaths.
Therefore, most of them were only clamoring with righteous indignation from afar. In reality, they were waiting for the true experts of the Ji Family to make a move.
At this moment, beside Ji Shangyong's original table, a handsome young man with an outstanding temperament stood up and walked out of the Ji Family crowd. He strode towards Lin Xuan and stood thirty meters away from Lin Xuan's table. He scolded righteously, "Lin Xuan! You attacked so viciously. You clearly do not put the Ji Family in your eyes. A cruel and arrogant person like you should receive the punishment you deserve — "
"Eh?"
Lin Xuan leisurely drank the remaining half cup of wine. When he looked up, he could not help but be amused.
He did not notice earlier that the person sitting beside Ji Shangyong was actually Xi Junyi.
There was no doubt that Ji Shangyong's provocation was most likely instigated by Xi Junyi.
Xi Junyi thought that Lin Xuan wouldn't recognize him, but he didn't know that ever since he confessed to Ji Xueyan, he had already registered himself in Lin Xuan's heart.
Lin Xuan smiled playfully and interrupted Xi Junyi's impassioned speech. He mocked, "The Ji Family hasn't even stood up yet and you, a dog, can't wait any longer? Oh, by the way, Ji Shangyong said that he knew the secret of being a dog. Did you teach him that? "
"You!"
Xi Junyi couldn't help but feel a knot in his throat. His complexion alternated between green and white. Lin Xuan's words had hit a sore spot in his heart.
He was a child of the Ji Family, so wasn't he just a dog of the Ji Family?
If he was really a loyal dog, he wouldn't be surprised by other people's opinions. However, Xi Junyi was extremely ambitious. Deep in his heart, he wasn't willing to be a dog of the Ji family. Instead, he wanted to be a human.
Therefore, Xi Junyi was especially angry at Lin Xuan's words. He couldn't help but defend himself, "I'm not the Ji family's dog —"
"Hehe, I don't believe you."
Lin Xuan sneered playfully.
"Damn it!"
Xi Junyi was about to explode from anger. At this moment, he finally understood Ji Shangyong's previous feelings. This damned Lin Xuan, the words he said could anger people to death.
Just as he was comparing his strength with Lin Xuan's and hesitating whether or not he should make a move, a cold voice suddenly rang out.
A cold female voice suddenly sounded out. "Lin Xuan, are you declaring war on the Ji Family?"
The crowd parted as Ji Lengye, Ji Lian Xing, Ji Fengchao, Ji Tianfeng, and the others slowly walked over. An intense pressure assaulted their faces. Wherever they passed, all the Ji Family members and non-Ji Family members would make way for them.
The one who spoke was Ji Lengye. Her gaze deeply stared at Lin Xuan with an indescribable meaning.
Lin Xuan put down his wine cup and placed both hands on the table. His gaze coldly swept across the Ji Family members as he sneered, "Hehe, could it be that not wanting to be a dog for the Ji Family is equivalent to declaring war on the Ji Family?"
"Lin Xuan, don't try to twist words and force logic!" You heavily injured Ji Shangyong, so you should give our Ji Family an explanation! "Ji Lian Xing lightly snorted.
"Then what kind of explanation do you want?" Lin Xuan indifferently sneered.
Ji Lengye's eyes flickered as he said in a deep voice, "Cripple your own arms and swear not to participate in the struggle for the Human Emperor's Sword Seal. My Ji Family will not make things difficult for you! "
"What?" That's too easy for him! "
"That's right!" Since he dared to make a move against our Ji Family members, he should be cut into a thousand pieces! "
Without waiting for Lin Xuan to speak, some of the Ji Family members at the back had already started shouting in dissatisfaction.
The Ji Family had always been overbearing in their actions. No matter which world they were in, they were all very powerful. In this kind of situation, even if they killed Lin Xuan, it wouldn't be too much. In the eyes of most people, Ji Lengye's conditions were a little too simple.
However, even in the face of these conditions that seemed simple to them, Lin Xuan did not have any plans to accept.
He lightly shook his head, looked straight at Ji Lengye, and said calmly: "Sorry, I'm unable to accept these two conditions. Change to another one."
"How dare you!" Lin Xuan, don't be shameless when you're given face! "
"Kill him!"
"What's the point of wasting words with him? This kind of arrogant fellow should be sent to hell!"
Many people from the Ji Family shouted angrily.
Ji Lengye slightly narrowed her eyes, and a cold light flashed in the depths of her eyes. From Lin Xuan not accepting these two conditions, it could be seen that this guy had great ambitions for the Human Emperor's Sword. This was something that she absolutely could not tolerate!
If it was anyone else, even if they coveted the Human Emperor's Sword, Ji Lengye would not take it to heart.
However, she clearly knew that Lin Xuan was not an ordinary person, but a peerless monster with unparalleled martial fate!
The richness of his luck was rarely seen throughout history, far surpassing the average prodigy of martial fate. Even she, Ji Lengye, was far from it.
If Lin Xuan participated in the fight for the Human Emperor's Sword, he would definitely be her, Ji Lengye's, great enemy, and also the entire Ji Family's great enemy.
For a moment, Ji Lengye's gaze turned cold, and traces of killing intent condensed in her heart.
The corners of Lin Xuan's mouth slightly curled up, forming a cold smile.
Before entering the Demon Domain, he had indeed maintained a great amount of fear towards the Ji Family's prodigies of the Martial Dao, and did not want to easily fall out with the Ji Family.
But now, it was different.
Since he had already made up his mind to chase the Human Emperor's Sword Master, falling out with the Ji Family was something that would happen sooner or later.
Most importantly, his Golem's Heart had greatly improved recently, and he had also obtained the Wind Chime Bell, a killing weapon, causing his strength to almost double. This also gave him the confidence to be unyielding.
Gradually, the atmosphere changed, and a gust of wind blew in the main hall for no reason. This was a violent gust of wind caused by the clash of auras.
However, Lin Xuan released his Saint Dao aura, and actually contended against the auras of the Ji Family with his own strength, and was not at a disadvantage at all. This shocked everyone to the point that their eyeballs almost popped out.
And this also aroused the killing intent of Ji Lengye and the Ji Family's prodigies, and a great battle was about to erupt.
But right at this moment, a vast and icy pressure descended from the sky, as if a basin of cold water was poured on a blazing charcoal, instantly suppressing everyone's aura.
Even Lin Xuan's eyelids couldn't help but twitch, and he was greatly shocked.
Sixth Level Aura!
There was a Sixth Level Great Demon in this palace!
The expressions of the Ji Family's people all changed, and they could no longer be arrogant, and instead became incomparably solemn.
Fortunately, this Sixth Level Aura was withdrawn as soon as it was released, as if it had never appeared.
However, the Ji Family's people didn't dare to act rashly. Even their ancestor might not be able to win against this level of expert, so it was better to tuck their tails between their legs.
A group of handsome men and beautiful women from the Ice Demon Clan entered the main hall, led by an imposing young man dressed in luxurious robes. His temperament was outstanding, and he was admirable.
"Brave warriors of the human race, I am the Sacred Race's Crown Prince Ji Hua. Today, I am deeply honored that you are able to visit the Sacred Race's secret realm. If I have not received you well, I hope that you can forgive me, um, forgive me."
The Crown Prince of the Ice Demon Clan spoke in a somewhat choppy human language, and his opening speech caused a burst of snickering below.
Ji Hua didn't care about the snickering around him. At this time, he seemed to have just noticed that Lin Xuan and the Ji Family's people were in a deadlock, and he walked over with a sincere expression, trying to persuade both sides.
"Friends of the Human Clan, no matter how deep your hatred is, since you have come here, you are guests of the Sacred Clan. I hope that you can put aside your hatred for the time being for the sake of the Ice Demon Clan and calmly drink a cup of wine brewed by the Sacred Clan. Once you leave the Dark Ice Valley, the Sacred Clan will not interfere in your grievances. Is that okay?"
Lin Xuan smiled faintly, and said, "Guests should follow the host's wishes. I naturally have to give face to the Ice Demon Clan.
However, these people are all surnamed Ji, descendants of the Human Sovereign. I'm afraid they won't be as easy to talk to as I am. "
Ji Hua nodded kindly to Lin Xuan, then turned to the Ji Family's people.
Ji Lengye's face darkened, and he said coldly, "Lin Xuan, you will regret opposing the Ji Family one day.
From today onwards, you, Lin Xuan, are the enemy of the Ji Family. Everyone in the Ji Family has the right to kill you! Outside of the Ji Family, anyone who kills Lin Xuan can become a friend of the Ji Family. Furthermore, the Ji Family will reward you handsomely! "
Lin Xuan smiled disdainfully, "Very good. I want to see who can take my, Lin Xuan's, head in exchange for your Ji Family's reward!"
"You won't see it, because by then, you will already be a dead man!"
Ji Lengye snorted coldly and led the Ji Family's people back to their seats.
The tense atmosphere dissipated, and everyone took their seats. Some cultivators arrived one after another, but the banquet had officially begun.
The Ice Demon Clan had some handsome men and beautiful women play music that was extremely unique to the demon race, presenting graceful dances. The Ice Demon Clan's Crown Prince Ji Hua frequently drank with the human guests. The atmosphere was pretty good.
Today, Lin Xuan could be considered to have completely fallen out with the Ji Family. Originally, there were still some cultivators who wanted to get to know him, but when they saw that Lin Xuan and the Ji Family had a falling out, each and every one of them chose to keep a respectful distance from Lin Xuan, lest they be remembered by the Ji Family.
In fact, even Zhao Tiehu hid far away at some point, exchanging toasts with some other factions' cultivators, but only did not dare to approach Lin Xuan, as if afraid of being infected with bad luck.
Lin Xuan sneered disdainfully in his heart. He tasted the Ice Spirit Drunk alone, a look of intoxication on his face, turning a blind eye to the various gazes around him.
He actually understood a principle long ago. The majority of people in this world were mediocre, while the true powerhouses were destined to be lonely.
"Drinking alone to drown your sorrows, isn't it too boring?"
A playful female voice sounded from beside him.
Lin Xuan did not even raise his head as he indifferently said, "Drinking alone may not be for the sake of drowning your sorrows. Who knows if you're enjoying it."
The woman sat down across from Lin Xuan, picked up the wine jug, and directly drank a mouthful from the jug. She lightly exhaled a breath of alcohol and said with a smile:
"Damned stubborn duck. Provoking the entire Ji Family, some people's hearts are probably in turmoil and uneasy, right? Do you need my help? "
Lin Xuan raised his eyes and looked at Nie Pianer opposite him. He frowned and said, "I don't need help. Moreover, I'm not familiar with you."
