While Lin Xuan was cultivating in seclusion, hundreds of Ji Family experts had set up an inescapable net outside Dark Ice Valley. They were waiting for Lin Xuan to appear and send him on his way.
As the number one family of the human race, the Ji Family had the noble blood of the Human Emperor flowing in their veins. The pride and glory in their bones made it impossible for them to tolerate any provocation.
Since ancient times, any person or force that dared to provoke the Ji Clan would only face annihilation. The Hundred Clans of the Heavens, the Ten Ancient Sects, the Dynasties of the past, all those who went against the Ji Clan or angered them had all received the punishment they deserved. They were either expelled or annihilated.
Lin Xuan, a minor character of the Human Race who came from a humble background, was naturally not an exception.
It was also this pride and glory that came from the bloodline that gathered the branches of the Ji Family from all over the world, forging the powerful Ji Family.
However, the Ji Family had spread out a large net and waited for an entire month, but they still did not see Lin Xuan's shadow. Instead, there were powerhouses from other human forces who were caught from time to time, and they all became the targets of the Ji Family to vent their anger.
As the days went on, many people in the Ji Family began to feel irritated and impatient. They had different opinions on this matter.
"Everyone, Lin Xuan does deserve to be killed, but we can't just waste our time and wait like idiots. Don't forget our mission. We have to pass the test left behind by the Human Emperor's ancestor and become the master of the Human Emperor's Sword Seal! If we delay our mission because of a mere Lin Xuan, we won't be able to redeem ourselves even if we die a hundred times! "Ji Changsheng said vehemently.
Ji Fengchao, who had long been unhappy with Ji Changsheng, stood out and mocked, "Hmph! Ji Changsheng, don't think we can't see through your thoughts! Aren't you in a hurry to pass the test and seize the Human Emperor Sword?
You want to become the master of the Human Emperor Sword with no regard for your family's honor? What a joke! "
Last month, in the Demon Earth, Ji Changsheng had abandoned the Ji Family and ascended to the Monster Realm by himself. At that time, he had left behind Ji Fengchao and the others to bear the wrath of the Giant Demon Clan. In the end, Ji Fengchao had suffered heavy losses. This was something that Ji Fengchao had never forgotten.
Ji Changsheng's expression did not change and he said with a cold smile, "Ji Fengchao, could it be that you don't want to become the Human Sovereign Sword Master? Or was there anyone present who did not want to become the Sword Master of the Human Sovereign?
The reason why I decided to let Lin Xuan go for now was for the sake of the bigger picture. Even now, we still haven't seen Ning Fengqiu's shadow. Perhaps Ning Fengqiu has already entered the next trial and left one step ahead of us.
If Ning Fengqiu obtains the Human Emperor's Sword Seal and allows a servant of the Ji Family to become the master, how can we continue to live in this world? "
Ji Fengchao continued to play the devil's advocate, "Humph! Even if Ning Fengqiu had passed this trial, so what? How could the Human Sovereign's Sword Seal be so easily obtained?
The next trial, the Sin Dragon Road, requires one to kill a powerful dragon king to pass. Moreover, one cannot use any treasured artifacts. Just based on the Ning Family servant's meager foundation, it's hard to say whether he can survive or not. So what if he went ahead early!
I still feel that killing Lin Xuan is the number one priority right now. Lin Xuan killed more than 170 of our Ji Family's clansmen. If we don't avenge this grudge, could it be that we want those clansmen who died to die with grievances?
If we disregard the blood feud of our clansmen, how can we be worthy of the surname Ji? "
The two people argued fiercely, not giving in to each other.
The surrounding Ji Lengye, Ji Lianxing, Ji Hanjiang, Ji Guangqing, and the others all had gloomy expressions, their gazes flickering indeterminately.
Speaking of which, the two people's words were actually both reasonable.
Before the Ji Family members entered the secret realm, although there was no hard and fast rule, there was an invisible rule that had been passed down for several tens of thousands of years. That was that in the first three trials of the Human Sovereign Secret Realm, everyone had to unite as one to pass through the trials together.
Although in the end, for the Human Sovereign's Sword, intense competition and even conflict would definitely occur within the Ji Family, that was also a matter after the three trials.
However, the current situation was a bit unusual.
Among the people present, to be able to reach this step at such a young age, they all had their own extraordinary points.
The most important point was that they possessed intuition that was sharper than the average person.
This intuition was not to be underestimated. It was an ability forged from the combination of the right time, the right place, the right people, luck, strength, and so on.
At critical moments, intuition could save one's life.
And today, everyone had a faint intuition that Lin Xuan would become a huge trouble for the Ji Family. Not only now, but also in the future.
In fact, in everyone's hearts, Lin Xuan's degree of danger had already surpassed Ning Fengqiu and Nie Pianer.
This was not only because of Lin Xuan's strength, but also because of Lin Xuan's luck.
Lin Xuan actually obtained a Calamity Transformation Stone from the Ice Demon Clan.
Perhaps in the eyes of most people, the Calamity Transformation Stone was just a stone that could ward off disasters.
However, in the eyes of the Ji Family's upper echelons and the Ice Demon Clan's eyes, the Calamity Transformation Stone contained the Law of Destiny. It had a powerful symbolic meaning, and that was — the return of the heavens!
Therefore, when Lin Xuan captured the Ice Silkworm that carried the Calamity Transformation Stone, he was valued by the Ice Demon Clan so much.
This was something that all of the Ji Family's leaders present were aware of.
It was also because of this that Lin Xuan had become the biggest threat in the eyes of the Ji Family. It was not only because of his safety, but also because of the competition for the Human Sovereign's Sword.
Of course, the Ji Family's members were conflicted.
On one hand, they wanted to kill Lin Xuan and eliminate this threat before it was too late. On the other hand, they were deeply afraid of Lin Xuan.
After all, even Ji Tianfeng had died at the hands of Lin Xuan. And Ji Wujiang had also indirectly died at the hands of Lin Xuan.
This minor character that they had once looked down upon was truly too dangerous.
This also caused everyone to have conflicting thoughts. Should they continue to fight to the death with Lin Xuan, or should they step into the next trial, the Sin Dragon Path, and compete for the Human Sovereign's Sword Master with all their might?
As for the matter of avenging their clansmen, that could only be secondary.
Everyone was silent for a long time.
After a long while, Ji Lengye suddenly spoke, "Everyone, no matter what, Lin Xuan has become our biggest threat. I am in favor of temporarily giving up everything and killing Lin Xuan with all our might.
However, since we can't reach a consensus, let's just have a vote. "
Everyone looked at each other for a while and nodded.
The results came out very quickly. Only Ji Lianxing and Ji Changsheng advocated giving up on killing Lin Xuan.
As for the remaining four people, Ji Lengye, Ji Hanjiang, Ji Fengchao, and Ji Guangqing, they strongly advocated getting rid of Lin Xuan first.
The minority obeyed the majority. The Ji Family's original plan did not change, and that was to continue waiting for Lin Xuan to be captured.
Right at this time, the sound of fierce fighting suddenly came from outside.
"Catch her! Don't let her escape! "
"Kill — —"
Boom boom boom — —
Huge explosions shook the heavens and the earth, causing the Ji Family's mansion to tremble non-stop.
Ji Lengye and the others looked at each other and flew out of the room at the same time. They came to the sky and looked at the battle.
In the past few days, although they were unable to catch Lin Xuan, the Ji Family could not be considered to have gained nothing. They killed more than thirty experts from the other major forces, and it was obvious that another one had come.
The other party was a woman.
Seeing that it was not Lin Xuan, the Ji Family's interest was immediately piqued. However, when they saw the woman's face clearly, they could not help but be vigilant.
That woman was not an ordinary martial artist, but Nie Pianer of the Primal Chaos Temple. She was a powerful person who was not below Ning Fengqiu in terms of danger!
"It's Nie Pianer!"
"Hmph! Although we were unable to catch Lin Xuan, if we can get rid of this witch first, our efforts will not be in vain! "
"That's right! Nie Pianer is also one of our main threats. Today, we will attack with all our strength and strive to get rid of this witch! "
"Kill!"
Ji Lengye, Ji Lian Xing, Ji Feng Chao, and the other five strongest people of the Ji Family all released their tyrannical auras at the same time. They used their extreme speed to attack Nie Pianer who was surrounded by hundreds of Ji Family disciples. Their auras were earth-shattering.
Nie Pianer originally planned to leave Dark Ice Valley with Lin Xuan. After all, she also knew that the Ji Family had set up an inescapable net outside the valley. She had to be careful. If she could team up with Lin Xuan, the pressure against the Ji Family would be much less.
However, she did not expect that Lin Xuan would actually be in seclusion in the Ice Demon Clan's territory. Moreover, this seclusion lasted for more than a month, and she did not know when it would end.
Nie Pianer was bored and impatient from waiting, so she decided to come out alone.
After all, as the number one genius of the Chaos Temple's Withering Wind Hall, her heart was full of pride. She believed that even if she did not rely on anyone, she could still charge out of the Ji Family's encirclement. It would just be a bit more strenuous.
At this moment, although she was surrounded by hundreds of Ji Family's elite disciples, Nie Pianer was not afraid at all. Her sexy lips slightly curled up with a touch of disdain.
"Hmph! Ji Family, you're just a sunset. Do you still think you're the Ji Family of ancient times? "
Nie Pianer sneered mockingly. She released her Cold Wind Age Domain, and a cold wind that accelerated the flow of time swept through the nine heavens. In an instant, more than twenty Heaven Transformation Realm experts were frozen into pieces, and then turned into ice shards. Its power was vast and unstoppable.
The Ji Family members could not help but pale in fright and retreat in fear.
In the face of Nie Pianer, a low-level Transcendent Realm expert, this group of Heaven Transformation Realm so-called geniuses were simply unable to withstand a single blow.
However, before Nie Pianer could leave, she suddenly felt a strong sense of danger.
She was alert and focused her gaze on the distant sky. She coldly looked at the six magnificent streams of light that were shooting towards her.
"Good timing. Today, let me, Nie Pianer, measure the quality of your Ji Family's elites!"
Nie Pianer snorted arrogantly and released her aura. She opened her arms and connected with heaven and man. She drew in endless spiritual energy, causing the domain around her to rapidly expand. Three hundred meters, eight hundred meters, one thousand meters, three thousand meters …
In the blink of an eye, Cold Wind Age raised a monstrous hurricane that enveloped a radius of ten miles and enveloped her.
Some of the Ji Family's disciples who stepped into the hurricane domain were instantly frozen into ice. Their bodies withered and their energy was drained away. They gradually turned into ice shards and disappeared with the wind.
"Nie Pianer! How dare you kill our Ji Family's people! I want you to pay with your life for them! Die- "
Ji Lengye took the lead and released his own domain, Extreme Cold Eternal Night.
Endless darkness and coldness spread out, clashing against Nie Tong 'er's Hurricane Domain.
"Demoness! Die! "
