"Silk rain becomes a line?" Dongzi Qi also muttered softly, and the other four Zifu cultivators behind him were still in shock.

  "This Ji Ning is even stronger than expected." Dongzi thought to himself, "At just 16 years old, he can even withstand Mu Si's attacks! I'm afraid only I can take him down if I make a move." If he were to make a move, that would mean unleashing the Eight Trigrams Blood Dragon Formation. Once the formation is revealed, it will be a life-or-death struggle with no room for retreat.

  Dongzi Qi was very confident, but he knew that the strength of the Ji family was not weak either. If they really fought, it was likely that one or two of his five Purple Mansion cultivators would fall.

  It would be even better if it could make the other side know its difficulties and retreat.

  "Ji Ning is awesome."

  "Good job."

  The people of the Ji clan all looked at Ji Ning, "Nothing's wrong, Chapter 18: The Ji Clan's Concession." Ji Yichuan looked at his son and only put his mind at ease when he saw that his son was not seriously injured.

  "Dongzi, open your eyes!" However, Shadow Old Lady shouted sternly, "What do you mean by this? You suddenly launched a sneak attack on the people of my Ji family? We're all here, and yet you dare to be so arrogant."

  "You're being too outrageous, Snow Dragon Mountain."

  The people of the Ji clan were extremely indignant, but each and every one of them endured it silently, not daring to take action, after all, their opponent was Xue Long Shan.

  "Hahaha……" Dongzi Qi smiled, "Sudden sneak attack? That's too harsh a word. I've only heard that your family's Ji has a talented person, gifted and accomplished. Even my fellow disciple from Xue Long Shan, Baizi Shanshan, died at his hands. Today, seeing this genius, I couldn't help but feel itchy to try him out. What, can't even our Zifu cultivators from Xue Long Shan exchange blows with your family's people?"

  "This is called tempering?" Shadow Grandma said in a stern and hoarse voice.

  "Of course it's a good fight." Dongzi Qi said, "Now it seems that your Ji family's genius is indeed formidable, and can break through my junior brother's magic, admirable, admirable."

  "You..." The shadowy old woman was also furious, having lived for nearly four hundred years and never suffered such humiliation. If she had nothing to worry about, she would have taken action long ago, but for the sake of the eighteenth chapter of the Ji family's retreat, she had to endure it.

  Dongzi Qi's eyes flashed with a fierce glint, and he coldly snorted: "Don't even mention sparring, even if you really killed Ji Ning, what can your Ji clan do?" Dongzi Qi's gloomy eyes swept across the group of Ji clan members, his mouth curled into a slight disdainful smile, making the Ji clan members even more indignant.

  Arrogant and domineering!

  Dongzi wants nothing more than to swagger and overwhelm the entire Ji family!

  "Tribe leader." Ji Liu Zhen suddenly roared in anger, "My Ji clan is not one to be bullied, I'd rather stand and live than kneel and die. My Ji clan has retreated step by step, but Snow Dragon Mountain has pressed in step by step. Do they think we're made of mud? Let's fight them! Since they've come with five people today, at least half of them will definitely die!"

  "It's all over."

  "Clan leader, I'm out of options."

  "They won't give us a way out, and we won't let them live either." Instantly, many Ji clan members were furious and shouted.

  This made Dongzi Qi and the other four slightly startled. The Snow Dragon Mountain's side was indeed powerful, but that referred to the Snow Dragon Mountain sect! A single branch of the Snow Dragon Mountain in Yanshan was stronger than the Ji clan, but only to a limited extent... After all, everyone's top-notch martial power was only at the level of a Purple Mansion cultivator. If they really clashed, even if they destroyed the Ji clan, this Snow Dragon Mountain Yanshan branch would also suffer heavy losses.

  "Shut up." Ji Jiu Huo turned his head and transmitted his voice through yuan force, his words echoing in the ears of every tribesman.

  Everyone looked at Ji Kuihuo.

  ……

  "What are they talking about?" The majestic young man from Xuelong Mountain asked in a loud voice.

  "These aborigines," said the man in gray, Mu Si, "are used to tribal life and would rather die than yield. When pressed too hard, they will fight to the death... We've been pressing them a bit too hard, so they're starting to push back."

  "Don't worry, that Jiu Huo is a nearly 400-year-old old guy who has lived through the ages. He's very smooth and will persuade his clansmen to control themselves."

  ……

  The Ji family was quietly passing on the news to each other.

  "That Snow Dragon Mountain is really too much." Ji Jiu Huo transmitted his voice, "But they are getting more and more arrogant, we also have to endure it! Are we going to fight them for real?"

  "Kazuo, we can sign a transfer agreement with the Daxia Dynasty. At that time, the Daxia Dynasty will protect us, and we will still be able to get 30% of the original stone veins." A sturdy man from the Ji clan transmitted his voice.

  "Foolish!" Jiǔ Huǒ transmitted his voice, "To sign the transfer agreement with the Great Xia Dynasty, we must first go to the imperial court and then wait for the Great Xia Dynasty's envoy to come and inspect the Yuanshi mine vein. Only after that can we sign the contract! This is a matter of time, and in such a long time, my Ji family may suffer a disaster!"

  "For the sake of the Yuanshi mine, you'd put the entire clan on the brink of destruction?" Ji Jiu Huo shouted, "How foolish can one be! Even if we successfully sign the transfer contract, the Great Xia Dynasty will protect our Ji family for a thousand years. But what about after that? The Snow Dragon Mountain will take revenge on us, and our Ji family will still be doomed. So I'd rather give the entire Yuanshi mine to Snow Dragon Mountain."

  "But..."

  "This is so infuriating."

  "Too..."

  Every member of the Ji family is holding their breath.

  "Anger and resentment aside, for the sake of the Ji family, we must endure." Ji Jiu sighed and transmitted his voice, "As long as the Ji family can continue to prosper, what's a little suffering to us?"

  "It's not anyone else's fault, it's just that our strength is insufficient. Clearly, this was a heaven-sent great opportunity, but this yuan stone mine vein is something we can't bear." Ji Jiu Huo looked at Ji Ning, "Ji Ning, you are the most outstanding genius of my Ji clan from its establishment as a tribe until now, and it's almost certain that you will become a True Person of the Myriad Realms no matter how you grow up."

  Every member of the tribe looked at Ji Ning with eyes full of expectation and longing.

  Yes.

  The hope of the Ji family's rise lies with Ji Ning! These aristocratic families' innate spiritual roots had previously doubted Ji Ning's abilities, after all they had only heard about it before... But just now, they personally saw Ji Ning reveal his powerful techniques, even breaking through a Snow Dragon Mountain Purple Mansion cultivator's strongest technique. And Ji Ning is only 16 years old! Thinking about Ji Ning's potential, each and every one of them was stirred with excitement.

  "But no matter how great a genius is, once they're dead, they're no longer a genius." Ji Jiu Huo looked at Ji Ning, "For the sake of our Ji clan, you must live on, and live for a long time."

  Ji Ning nodded slightly.

  He remembered one person... the fourth master of Shuifeng, Lie Zhan, who was able to become a direct disciple of Yunhua Xianren in such a competitive situation. His talent goes without saying, unfortunately he died during the Wanxiang True Person era.

  "The humiliation of today, my Ji family members must remember it well." Ji Jiu Huo looked at each and every one of his family members, "We must become strong, once we are strong, others will not dare to bully us or look down on us."

  "Yes." Many of the tribesmen nodded in agreement, and Ji Ning was among them.

  ……

  Dongzi Qi and the other five Zifu cultivators watched from the side, looking at the expressions of Ji's family members who were both sorrowful and angry but suppressing their anger, couldn't help but sneer. They had seen this scene too many times, back when they were in the sect and went out to handle matters, facing those small tribes on Xuelong Mountain, all of whom could only bow their heads.

  "Dongzi Qi." Jiufei turned his head around and looked at Dongzi Qi and the other four.

  "Is that settled?" Dongzi Qi looked at Ji Jiu Huo, "However, I'm telling you clearly, no matter what, the decree of your vassal from Wan Jian City must be handed over! If it's not handed over, the calamity of the extinction of your Ji clan is imminent!"

  The people of the Ji clan all had difficulty controlling their anger, and each one's indignation was visible on their faces.

  Must hand over the decree of the vassal?

  Isn't it forcing the Ji clan to abandon their territory?

  Ji Yu gritted his teeth, his face looking unpleasant, and said word by word: "The Ji family can hand over the vassal decree and leave this territory! Everything in this territory belongs to Xue Long Shan."

  "What."

  Everyone was shocked, and Ji Ning also looked at the clan leader in shock.

  Ji Jiu Huo continued to grit his teeth and said: "But you Snow Dragon Mountain must give me a vassal order of the Ji family, let the Ji family have a place to settle down! Use the vassal order of Wan Jian City to exchange for another vassal order of a big city in Daxia. The Ji family is willing to leave their hometown."
