"Huh?"
Xiao Hua was dumbfounded. This matter was still out of his expectations. He thought that Ji Shengliang would beg him to bring him to the fourth layer, or perhaps the fifth layer. He definitely didn't expect that Ji Shengliang would actually directly hand the Ji Clan over to him!
"Get up, get up!"
Xiao Hua quickly helped Ji Shengliang up and said, "Why do you say that?"
Ji Shengliang gritted his teeth and said, "If Tower Master Xiao doesn't agree, I won't get up!"
Xiao Hua sneered and said lightly, "Master Ji, are you forcing Xiao?"
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare!"
Ji Shengliang fell to the ground and cried, "I really have no other choice. Please forgive me, Tower Master Xiao!"
"I'm sorry!"
Xiao Hua said, "The foundation of the Ji Family may fall into the eyes of others, but it won't be in Xiao's eyes at all. Xiao will never take over this mess!"
"Sigh!"
Seeing Ji Shengliang like this, Wen Zhong also felt a little sad. He sighed and was about to speak, but when he looked over, he saw Xiao Hua winking at him!
Winking at him?
Wen Zhong suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Couldn't he just use telepathy?
"Ahem!"
Wen Zhong coughed and helped Ji Shengliang up. He said, "Fellow Daoist Ji, let's talk nicely. You're forcing us to abdicate. No one is willing to do that!"
"Sigh!"
Ji Shengliang got up and wiped away his tears. He said, "If I wasn't so disappointed, I wouldn't have done this!"
"Yes, yes!"
Wen Zhong said in agreement, "I understand your thoughts. You thought that after opening the Abyss, with the help of the five Tower Masters and the Primordial Immortals, you would be able to solve the problem of the Ji Family. But you didn't expect that there might be seven levels in the Abyss. And you can't go deeper after reaching the third level. Anyone would break down."
"Yes!"
Ji Shengliang looked at the flashing treasure lights in the distance and said with a long face, "Putting aside the fact that the five Tower Masters are in the lead, Jiang Renzhou and Shen Ye can go deep, but I can't. I can't accept this!"
The corner of Xiao Hua's mouth curled into a sneer: "I'm afraid Patriarch Ji has no way of catching up to the five Tower Lords before catching Xiao, right?"
"No, no ~"
Ji Shengliang immediately shook his head and said, "I already had this plan when I sacrificed billions of Ji Family disciples outside Lingyuan. To tell you the truth, I already had this idea when I saw you accompanying Fellow Daoist Wen here …"
Ji Shengliang knew that this was his last chance, so he didn't wait for Xiao Hua to ask any more questions. He quickly said, "Although the Ji Family has gained a lot from protecting Ling Yuan, only I know the hardships we've suffered. The Ji Family's power has already fallen behind the Jiang Family and the Shen Family. Now, we can't even compare to the Wen Family."
"Once Ling Yuan is open, the Ji Family has already lost Senior Ling's protection. We need a strong backer. I invited the five Tower Masters here not only because they know the Five Spirits Dharma, but also because I wanted to discuss with them and ask for their protection … "
"However, after seeing Tower Master Xiao, I know that the Ji Family has a better choice!"
"The Ji Family is a Dao Immortal, and Tower Master Xiao is a Dao Immortal. The Ji Family is much more suitable to follow Tower Master Xiao than the twelve Tower Masters of the Heavenly Courts!"
"Tower Master Xiao dares to go against Heavenly Venerables of Dao Immortals and protect the ancient families. He can also help Fellow Daoist Wen become the head of the Wen Family. Helping the Ji Family is as easy as lifting a finger!"
"What makes me feel most at ease is Tower Master Xiao's benevolence. When Tower Master Xiao first came to the Ji Family, he couldn't bear to see me sacrificing Ji Family disciples who have nothing to do with him. Isn't such a backer what I've been yearning for day and night?"
"Look at Jiang Meiyu. He clearly has the chance to kill Jiang Renzhou and replace him, but he doesn't care to do so. It's obvious that he has a brighter future by following Tower Master Xiao. Jiang Meiyu can choose, Wen Xian can choose, so why can't I?"
…
Ji Shengliang said many words from the bottom of his heart and finally pleaded, "Tower Master Xiao, I've said all that I need to say. I've really thrown away my last shameful act! If you're still worried, I can choose to stay here and not go out. I only hope that Tower Master Xiao can save the 2.3 billion disciples of the Ji Family from the Arc Current! "
Ji Shengliang spoke for a long time, and only his last sentence moved Xiao Hua. Only a family head who was willing to leave his life behind to save his own people was worthy of Xiao Hua's help!
"What do you mean?"
Xiao Hua interrupted Ji Shengliang and asked curiously, "Aren't the 2.3 billion disciples of the Ji Family in the Arc Current well? Even if you can't find a way to break the cycle of reincarnation, they're just gradually turning into Wind Immortals. What does this have to do with life and death? "
"Tower Master Xiao ~"
Hearing Xiao Hua's words, Ji Shengliang was overjoyed. He hurriedly explained, "Things are far more complicated than what you said. Previously, I was just as you thought. Even if the Ji Family can't prosper, it's fine as long as we can live."
"But later, I found out that most of the reincarnated disciples of the Ji Family can't leave Lingyuan. If they exceed a million miles, their souls will wither and they will suddenly die …"
Then, Ji Shengliang looked at Wen Zhong and said, "Actually, the Ji Family knew that Fellow Daoist Wen sent people to the Immortal Burial Void first. Some of the information was even provided by the Ji Family. However, later on, the Ji Family asked for help from the Jade House. That's why there was Ji Ling …"
"Okay, no need to say more ~"
Wen Zhong waved his hand and said, "This is old news!"
Ji Ling was naturally the disciple of the Ji Family who chased after Wen Zhong in the Yellow City. Wen Zhong was not Xiao Hua. He had already killed Ji Ling and that disciple of the Jade House. Ji Shengliang said this now because he was afraid that Wen Zhong would bring up the old scores in the future.
"Ji Shengliang ~"
Xiao Hua frowned and said, "Xiao already knows about your difficulties, but … Xiao doesn't even know if Xiao can get out of Lingyuan and help!"
"Tower Master Xiao ~"
Ji Shengliang thought for a moment and carefully took out a bronze plate. He muttered something and handed it to Xiao Hua respectfully after a moment. "Take a look ~"
"Damn ~"
Xiao Hua took the plate and looked at it for a moment. He couldn't help but curse in a low voice. His face was burning.
There was a thin layer of watery light on the bronze plate. There were some spots in the watery light. Xiao Hua didn't know what it was at first, but after a few glances, he immediately understood that it was Lingyuan. Just as Xiao Hua recognized Lingyuan, countless shadows danced between the spots like a light fog, almost covering the entire Lingyuan. Weren't they Xiao Hua's tens of millions of shadows??
Xiao Hua was quite embarrassed, as if he had gone to someone's house to take something and got caught red-handed!
"Tower Master Xiao, don't worry ~"
Ji Shengliang immediately said, "This item can only be used by the head of the Ji Family. Now, I'm offering it to you, senior!"
How could Xiao Hua take someone's ancestral immortal artifact? He handed it to Ji Shengliang without hesitation and said, "You're the head of the Ji Family. You should take it yourself!"
Ji Shengliang's face suddenly turned pale as if his parents had died. He didn't take the plate at all and only begged, "I've offered my heart to you, senior. Do you really not want to save the Ji Family …"
