Chapter 1013: Chapter 1011: Old Desecration (1) Chapter 1013: Chapter 1011: Old Desecration (1) Originally, I brought along the lantern on this mission to find an opportunity to test it.
Unexpectedly, the Native Council had created something similar and, in Fu Qianâs view, there couldnât have been a better opportunity.
My Rebirth Club couldnât be left behind.
For a moment, that indescribable, vibrant color nearly pierced the heavens and the earth.
Even the Darkfire Cage couldnât block it in the slightest.
But it quickly receded and ultimately condensed at a point not far ahead.
And after the blinding colors dimmed down, what appeared gave Fu Qian quite a shock.
There stood a version of himself.
One without a mask, without any disguise.
âŠ
âWhat is that nowâŠâ
In the manorâs conference room, Ji Mingzhe stared at the sudden burst of brilliant light and mumbled absentmindedly.
The chaos of Darkfire and the vision that transcended space and dimensions had already left him deeply shaken.
But having deduced that the actual location was deep within the manor, a group of them wasnât overly concerned.
Clearly, it must have been Demigod Lu who had found the target and taken action.
Although the ferocity and method were frightening, it looked like a situation where both parties would lose.
For a while, everyone tacitly decided to wait quietly for the outcome.
Who would have thought, at this moment, yet another drastic change would occur, similarly exaggerated.
âFriends have only brought a distinguished guest.â
At this time, however, it was Ji Liushuang who spoke calmly and diverted her gaze.
Though her ranking wasnât high, her unique sharpness from Sword Heart Enlightenment allowed her to realize that two supremely sublime entities had appeared there one after another.
Thus, from the beginning to now, she naturally paid attention to the fate of âProfessor Andielâ who had gone out.
But at that moment, the area was shrouded in power, with nothing visible but Darkfire and dazzling light.
Knowing she couldnât intervene, all she could do was make Professor Andielâs choice mean as much as possible.
âDonât worry, Elder Lu will take good care of them.â
âŠ
So, was the later phenomenon created by that Demigod Lu?
Although there was speculation, Ji Liushuangâs words still brought a genuine shock to the group.
The Rebirth Club even had methods verging on those of DeityâŠ
Others might lack a clear understanding, but for the two demigods, the confrontational power and the unbelievable space-time state could only be described as Divine Beings.
The more they had touched Divinity, the more they felt the difficulty of resisting it.
At this moment, someone was knocking on the door, asking for instructions on how to deal with the phenomenon outside.
âLiushuang?â
Ji Xun looked at her for her opinion.
âDonât let them get close; it will be over in a little while.â
Ji Liushuang nodded.
âAlright.â
Ji Xun immediately expressed no objections.
In fact, the reason for this consultation was merely to seek someone, or an organization, to endorse the decision.
He personally didnât want to intervene, but with the big commotion in the manor, it was slightly difficult to remain completely indifferent.
âBut weâd better resolve this matter quickly.â
Ji Tong, the elder, seeing that everyone agreed, promptly began to urge.
âSo what did you mean just now? That splicing the limbs of the deceased is not upstanding behavior?â
âI wonât mention the philosophy that all things possess spirits, but to be honest, from my perspective, if it can aid those who come after us, the Ancestors of Ji probably wouldnât mind this at all.â
Just now, Ji Liushuangâs comment that Ji Pingâs hand came from a corpse clearly hit a nerve with everyone, and he finally had to step in to unify the thoughts.
âYou may be overthinking this; this matter has never been about morality, but about foolishness.â
Facing the scrutiny of many, Ji Liushuang still shook his head.
âHave you ever thought about how the owner of that hand became a corpse?â
âEarlier, the creature in the Ashfall, and its relationship with Ashfall itselfâwas it an accidentally invited disaster, or a necessary part of the process? Have you confirmed this causal relation?â
âAre you suggesting that such an occurrence in the Ashfall, including that creature, is not random but potentially remains a danger even after being eradicated?â
Shocked slightly by Ji Liushuangâs words, but glancing at Ji Ping, who was clearly concerned about his own fate, Ji Xun decided to continue supporting him.
âTheoretically speaking, we should have more authority in this matter, and if itâs merely for such a reason, I cannot help but suspect an excess of personal distaste from you.â
âPersonal distaste, indeed, I donât like him; however, thatâs a different story.â
Facing the accusations, Ji Liushuang frankly admitted his dislike.
âIâm just pointing out that in the face of seemingly beneficial outcomes, your decision-making is as immature as that of gamblers.â
âSo you refuse to lead the Gospel Group?â
Being judged in such a manner by a junior, most of those present found it hard to save face. Ji Xun and Ji Tong exchanged a glance, and the former then sternly asked.
âNo, I accept the Gospel Group.â
Yet Ji Liushuang continued shaking his head.
So you accepted it againâŠ
So this whole roundabout discussion was just to posture?
As everyone exchanged looks, the originally downcast Ji Ping brightened up.
âI did indeed not give enough thought to my actions earlier. I will go find your mother shortly and apologize sincerely to her.â
He expressed his sincerity as swiftly as possible.
âIncluding the concerns you mentioned, Liushuang, I have thought it over seriously recently; indeed, we cannot overlook even the smallest risk, and until further validation is complete, Iâm willing to accept the strictest confinement.â
Although unable to understand the relationship between Elder Lu and the man before her, at this moment, she undoubtedly became the person who could determine his fate.
The miracle within him was precious, but without the help of the Rebirth Club, its significance would be greatly diminished.
In matters of risk and benefit, the members of this family had always been particularly meticulous.
âLiushuang, you seeâŠâ
Observing a turning point and sensing that the timing was right, Ji Tong hoped Ji Liushuang would finally clarify her stance.
However, amidst the expectations of everyone, she did not rush to respond but slowly stood up.
âSo you are proposing a deal with me?â
Staring at Ji Pingâalthough of lower RankingâJi Liushuangâs demeanor completely overshadowed the other.
âNotâŠâ
Ji Ping subconsciously denied.
âYou still donât understand the situation. Do you think you know who youâre talking to?â
Ji Liushuang slowly shook her head, pulling out a silver rapier.
âDo you think you are in a position to speak like this?â
âAs I said before, my disgust for you is another story; the moment you chose to joke, death became your only fate, I am utterly sure of this.â
YouâŠ
Feeling the undeniable intent to kill from the other side, Ji Ping could no longer bargain, as black and white ash rapidly spread from his hands.
âLiushuang!â
Ji Xun, realizing what was happening, also cried out fiercely.
Yet, at this moment, her mind was completely focused.
Without hesitation, without faltering, a beam of pure killing intent shot forth in silver light, piercing through everything before it and straight through Ji Pingâs head.
