Chapter 1143: Elders Turn Against Each Other
Ji Dahai is the elder of the Ji family, one of Huaxia's five elders, holding an extremely high status.
However, due to the Ji family's matters, Ji Dahai was apprehended by the Dragon Group and has since fled without a trace.
But who could have thought that facing such a crisis, Ji Dahai wouldn't try to hide but instead came to General Mountain.
Boom!
An aura vast as the sea, boundless and immense, like a blazing sun, shook the sky.
This is an invincible saintly power, only a strong Saint can have such a force!
General Mountain is a resting place for elders, guarded by thousands of warriors, including many martial masters, enough to resist any foe!
However, the heavily defended General Mountain suddenly faced a saintly force, instantly shattering everything!
An invincible saintly power swept through the heavens and earth, making the entire General Mountain erupt, affecting everyone on the mountain!
In an instant, the warriors guarding the mountain collapsed to the ground, all falling into a deep coma!
This saintly power was too strong for the warriors to resist, they fell into an illusionary state, their lives hanging by a thread!
Fortunately, the intruder didn't go mad and crush all their life souls, or else these thousands of warriors would be finished!
Hoo!
Hoo!
At the moment this saintly power appeared, a dozen figures suddenly emerged, fleeing into the Wood Tower.
These people had intense auras, accompanied by ghostly spirits, they were all land immortals!
The dozen land immortals weren't enemies, but the strongest trump card of General Mountain, the guard team of Li Kuishou and others!
This saintly power was extremely terrifying, instantly killing all the mountain warriors, but it couldn't threaten the land immortals!
Land immortals control ghostly powers, the strongest among them can battle the Other Shore, a saintly strong person must take action to eliminate them!
However, saintly strong persons have eternal life, immortal and indestructible, controlling the invincible Great Divine Skills. Even the Other Shore Grand Master must bow before a Saint, what can a group of land immortals change?
"All of you, stand down!"
The saintly power was like a primeval beast, impacting everyone's spirit, but Li Kuishou and the others didn't faint, because Xu Qingling protected them!
Moreover, these elders had exceptional cultivation and were all peak Grandmasters, otherwise, they wouldn't be so sturdy.
However, facing the escort team determined to defend, these elders didn't smile, instead, they were full of gravity!
Ji Dahai came to General Mountain, and there was a saintly person accompanying him, this is a big deal!
On General Mountain, silence reigned.
All around the mountain were warriors, carrying machine guns and rocket launchers!
But when the saintly power swept over, before they even saw the enemy, they were hit with surging blood, and fell unconscious.
At this moment, three figures descended from the sky, landing on General Mountain!
These three people had different ages, spanning greatly: a young man, a middle-aged man, and an elder!
The force of saintly power emanated from the middle-aged man, but the elder and the young man were also strong, exuding Other Shore aura, they had both cultivated into the bodies of Grand Masters!
One Saint, two Grand Masters, this is a powerful combination!
"Ji Dahai, you despicable scoundrel, how dare you come to General Mountain!" In the Wood Tower, an elder was furious, roaring at the people outside the building.
"Kun Wuchang, decades have passed, you still have that violent temper, not knowing how to calm down at all!" Outside, that elder replied indifferently.
"Ji Dahai, you are truly daring!" He Shanhe's angry voice sounded. "All of Huaxia is hunting you down, yet you don't think about hiding your identity and saving your life, you actually ran to General Mountain, do you really want to die?"
Ji Dahai is the helmsman of the Ji family, currently being hunted by the Dragon Group, his days are numbered. Yet, he didn't busy himself with escape, but came to General Mountain, this is truly unexpected and shocking.
"It seems you have truly gone senile, unable to understand the situation!"
Ji Dahai stared at the Wood Tower, his eyes shining with mystic light as if he could see through everything, looking directly at the elders inside.
"The power of the Dragon Group is indeed strong, but I am under the protection of a Saint, they pose no threat to me!"
"I came to General Mountain today, not to court death, but to resolve grievances!"
"Today we will find out who truly dies!"
Ji Dahai was a mighty elder, very imposing, clearly a veteran of many battles, a ruthless and cruel character.
Moreover, as he looked at the Wood Tower, a glint of madness flashed in his eyes, a bloodthirsty intent.
"Grandfather, the vast foundation of our Ji family was ruined by their hands, let me kill them!"
The young man beside Ji Dahai held even deeper grievances, the aura of hostility emanating from him nearly materialized, terrifically frightening.
"Calm yourself!" Ji Dahai, being older, although furious, didn't act impulsively. "Those old guys have Other Shore experts protecting them, we must not act rashly!"
"What is there to fear!" the young man scoffed. "With Master here, even hall-level experts must bow, why fear mere Other Shore?"
The young man glanced at the middle-aged man, who was none other than his master, a being who had proven to be a Saint!
"That powerful being from the Other Shore is a woman, and she has deep ties with you!" The middle-aged man suddenly spoke, looking at the young man.
"Ties with me?" The young man said, bewildered. Then, his face changed dramatically: "Xu Qingling, that vile woman is here!"
This man was named Ji Wushuang, born with great fortune, not only having a Dao root but also apprenticed under a Saint, and he had already reached the Other Shore!
However, Ji Wushuang had deep ties with Xu Qingling due to his passionate pursuit of her, even having been engaged to Xu Qingling!
Yet, faced with Ji Wushuang's fervent courtship, Xu Qingling was utterly unmoved!
Even after they were engaged, Xu Qingling remained indifferent, neither cold nor warm.
Eventually, due to Ye Chen's sudden appearance, the engagement was called off!
The Xu Family had no idea how much they paid to calm the situation, with Xu Wuming visiting several times to apologize.
But Ji Wushuang always held a grudge over this, brooding constantly!
He couldn't forgive this betrayal, and his love for Xu Qingling had already turned into hatred!
"Xu Qingling is here, this is truly wonderful!" Ji Wushuang sneered coldly. "That woman betrayed me, I must make her pay, and regret everything she did!"
Ji Wushuang had been busy with cultivation, having no time to seek out Xu Qingling, yet he harbored hatred in his heart!
At this moment, with Xu Qingling inside the Wood Tower, Ji Wushuang's desire for revenge ignited.
"Strange!" At this moment, the middle-aged man showed a look of confusion and muttered, "This woman's bones are exceptionally ordinary, yet she managed to cultivate into the status of a Grand Master, this is indeed peculiar!"
A Saint has the power that follows words, practically omnipotent, doing whatever they wish!
Xu Qingling's existence certainly wouldn't escape notice!
However, the middle-aged man was perplexed because Xu Qingling was too ordinary, how could she possibly become a Grand Master?
Indeed, Xu Qingling was stunningly beautiful, captivating beyond measure, but this had nothing to do with cultivation!
"Grandfather, Master, let's go inside!" Ji Wushuang couldn't wait any longer. "It's the people inside this tower who exterminated the Ji family, let's go in for revenge and unleash carnage!"
"Hmm!"
Ji Dahai looked at the Wood Tower ahead, suddenly let out a long breath, showing a complex emotion.
It was a mix of hatred, entanglement, fear...
As if the people inside the Wood Tower were someone he hated, yet he dared not face them.
"Ji Dahai, come in!"
At this moment, an elderly voice spoke from inside the Wood Tower, surprisingly inviting Ji Dahai in, and this person was the leader of the elders—Li Kuishou!
"Let's go!"
In a flash, three figures streaked into the Wood Tower.
Inside the Wood Tower.
Li Kuishou, Yang Shouye, and others were as if facing a formidable enemy, even with the guard team nearby, their limbs still felt cold.
The three men in front exuded overwhelming gaits, each terrifyingly boundless, giving a strong impact!
Especially the middle-aged man, emitting a vast aura that could captivate, as if standing in the midst of the starry sky, incredibly daunting.
"Ji Dahai, we haven't seen each other in decades, but I would never have thought our reunion would be like this!" Li Kuishou looked at Ji Dahai, revealing a sense of regret, a sense of pain.
Former brothers who shared life and death, now turning against each other at such a time, how could one not feel sorrow?
"I never expected it either!" Ji Dahai said in a deep voice. "In the past, I called you brothers, yet you treated me like this, overthrowing the family I built!"
"Ji Dahai, are you even human?" Kun Wuchang shouted. "Why did we overthrow the Ji family, don't you know?"
"Over these years, how many mistakes did the Ji family make, how many taboos did they violate, do we really need to list them for you?"
The Ji family, claiming to be powerful beyond measure, but they made so many mistakes that it's simply intolerable!
If the elders continued to feign ignorance, the Ji family wouldn't just dominate the centers of power—they would overthrow the entire regime!
"This empire was conquered by us, why can't we govern it?" Ji Dahai said.
"If everyone behaved like you, wouldn't Huaxia fall into chaos?" Wen Xiangyou reprimanded. "This empire was conquered by us, and we gained honor; only you are insatiable, scheming to overturn everything for yourself!"
They were all elders of Huaxia, known for their monumental achievements, without their presence, there wouldn't be Huaxia today.
However, their achievements were great, their rewards also great, only Ji Dahai was greedy beyond measure, birthing a heart of grand treason!
"You are all old, no longer wanting to toil, but I am different!" Ji Dahai said. "I have already reached the Other Shore, able to achieve immortality, living another thousand years is effortless—who among you can compare to me?"
"Our cultivation cannot match yours!" Li Kuishou said. "But our integrity surpasses yours, a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times!" Li Kuishou pointed at his own chest. "Being human means being true to one's conscience! Your accomplishments are indeed great, but you have also reaped greatly, don't do anything foolish, turn back now!"
"Nonsense!" Ji Dahai roared, revealing his inner turmoil. "I fought life and death for Huaxia, suffered countless hardships, why can't I reign supreme alone?"
