The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor

For the Ji Family of Floating Mountain, this battle was mostly just some auxiliary work on a smaller battlefield on the side.

The true determinant of this battle's direction was Ye Xuan and his companions!

Even Ji Lengyue and Ji Zhong, the two ancestors of the Ji Family, couldn't achieve results that could compare to these three.

As for Qiankun Ancestor and Qiao Xinyu, they were under Ye Xuan's command.

Because of this, the Ji Family members looked at Ye Xuan not only with shame but also with deep fear.

Now they've come to understand that Ye Xuan is definitely not a member of the Evil God Sect!

Everything before was merely accusations by Ji Zifan and intentional framing by Dou Su Saint!

Boom!

At this moment, Dou Su Saint and the strong practitioners of Dou Su Palace also took their positions.

However, by comparison, several of Dou Su Saint's group were injured.

Dou Su Saint's face was grim, staring at Ye Xuan, and he spoke with a heavy tone, "Why didn't you lend a hand just now?"

"Is it just because we had suspicions about you before?"

"Don't forget, we are the Guardian Gods who have guarded the Mystic Yellow Nine Cauldrons for generations. Having doubts about you was merely for the better protection of the Mystic Yellow Nine Cauldrons!"

"Such despicable behavior is truly vile!"

Dou Su Saint directly spoke to Ye Xuan.

Because among those who acted from Dou Su Palace, some had just perished on the battlefield, killed by the experts of the Evil God Sect, and many of the survivors were severely injured.

In comparison, the Ji Family's loss was nothing.

This explains why Dou Su Saint was so furious.

Previously, he had joined along with Ji Zifan in stirring against Ye Xuan primarily due to two reasons: one was dissatisfaction with Ye Xuan, seizing the chance to weaken Ye Xuan's influence from a past battle; the second was to lessen Floating Mountain's power in this fight.

In the end, it turned out to be Dou Su Palace's worst loss.

This was completely unexpected for Dou Su Saint.

Despite knowing Ye Xuan was respected by the two ancestors of the Ji Family, Dou Su Saint was not afraid of him!

This time, Dou Su Saint couldn't suppress the anger in his heart and directly confronted Ye Xuan.

However, as soon as he spoke those words, the faces of those present changed to a strange expression.

Previously, you targeted someone, and they didn't cause trouble for you. Now even though you lost on the battlefield, you're blaming others for not helping you?

This logic is quite interesting.

Ji Ziqing instinctively wanted to argue for Ye Xuan.

But Ye Xuan stopped Ji Ziqing, calmly looked at Dou Su Saint, and smiled lightly, "Are we acquainted?"

Dou Su Saint's face turned grim, and he said in a heavy tone, "What does acquaintance have to do with it? Since you participated in the battle, you should stand alongside the Guardian Gods of the Nine States, as a partner, yet you ignore the life and death of your partners, what logic is that?!"

Ye Xuan remained calm, slowly saying, "You seem to forget that the reason I joined the fight wasn't for you, or even for Floating Mountain, but for Ji Lengyue."

"You want to reason with me, do you?"

"Alright, I'll reluctantly give you a chance to reason."

"Survive from my hand."

Ye Xuan gestured to Dou Su Saint with his fingers.

As these words were spoken, Dou Su Saint's face grew even more unsightly.

Although he wasn't afraid to argue with Ye Xuan, when it came to an actual fight, Dou Su Saint lacked the courage.

Dou Su Saint had seen with his own eyes how the Mountain Ridge Venerable, one of the top combatants in the Evil God Sect, was utterly defeated under Ye Xuan's hands.

Even someone like Mountain Ridge Venerable could not withstand Ye Xuan, what could Dou Su Saint rely on to battle Ye Xuan?

Isn't this courting death?

Thus, Dou Su Saint stood there, shamefaced and unable to utter a word.

"Afraid to fight yet love to bark, one day Tian Ming falls, and one won't even know how it fell," Qiankun Ancestor looked at Dou Su Saint with a smile, casually saying, "Or do you truly think standing behind Dou Su Palace allows you to straighten your back and babble to my master?"

Boom!

During his speech, Qiankun Ancestor flicked an intimidating force toward Dou Su Saint.

Dou Su Saint felt the force coming, his heart was a mess, yet his body couldn't match its speed, he could only watch it come.

"Watch out!"

An elderly man from Dou Su Palace, his face serious, stood in front of Dou Su Saint.

"Pff————"

Under everyone's shocked gaze, the old man's defense domain was pierced instantly by the force, which then continued through his abdomen, hurtling toward Dou Su Saint.

In a blink, seeing the dire situation, the Great Elder of the Ji Family intervened, albeit at the cost of a broken arm, to finally block the force.

The Great Elder's face paled, his right arm powerless and hanging down, he smiled bitterly and bowed to Ye Xuan, saying, "Dou Su Saint is young and impetuous, I hope Young Master Ye isn't offended."

"I hope Young Master Ye isn't offended."

Ji Wenchang, the Saint Master, also approached Ye Xuan, respectfully saluting him.

No matter what, Dou Su Saint was sent by Dou Su Palace to aid Floating Mountain.

If today Dou Su Saint was indeed injured by Qiankun Ancestor, then rumors spreading to Dou Su Palace would surely affect the alliance, possibly causing them to turn against Floating Mountain.

That's something they didn't want to see.

Hence why Floating Mountain's people aided when Qiankun Ancestor attacked Dou Su Saint.

Ye Xuan didn't bother responding to these individuals but turned his gaze to Ji Lengyue.

Ji Lengyue immediately understood, a firm cane tap to the ground echoed as she turned, exuding authority, staring at Ji Wenchang, coldly stating, "From today on, you are no longer the Saint Master of Ji Family."

"The new Saint Master will be inherited by a member of Floating Mountain approved by Zhou Yi Book."

As these words were spoken, the Ji Family members were shocked.

"Ancestor, reconsider!"

"Ancestor, there isn't currently anyone in Floating Mountain who is approved by Zhou Yi Book!"

Numerous elders pleaded.

Ji Lengyue snorted coldly, "Then the position will remain vacant."

Ji Wenchang's face paled somewhat; he looked at Ji Lengyue, his expression holding a tinge of defeat, yet regarding their own ancestor's command, he dared not disobey, and respectfully replied, "Yes."

Meanwhile, Ji Ziqing beside him had a ripple in her bright eyes, instinctively looking at Ye Xuan.

She knew clearly that all of this was driven by Ye Xuan.

Especially Ji Lengyue's words just now made Ji Ziqing realize.

Mister Ye is pushing her to the position of Saint Master of Floating Mountain!

Any other woman might have drastic emotional changes at this moment.

However, Ji Ziqing remained relatively calm, feeling more anticipation.

She had long felt that many of Floating Mountain's rules were incorrect.

Perhaps now is the chance!

"I request to drip blood on Zhou Yi Book!"

Ji Ziqing withdrew her gaze, looking at Ancestor Ji Lengyue, earnestly expressing.
