“Dang!”
A piercing metallic clang sounded. That person retreated several steps. Ji Chengqi retreated more than ten steps.
Everyone was greatly shocked. Were not Saint Heaven Gate’s eighth-layer Martial Emperors all dead?
Who was that person? How could his power be so strong, able to contend with Ji Chengqi’s power and even faintly gain the advantage?
Ji Chengqi’s combat power displayed in battles in the ancient city had been witnessed by many. He was the top genius in this batch from Ji family, not inferior to that Zhao Suiqing and Bi Zhuang.
“Could it be Zhao Suiqing?”
“No, Zhao Suiqing is already dead. I heard his voice personally and saw him and Saint Heaven Gate’s eighth-layer Martial Emperor killed by someone.”
“Then who could it be? Does Saint Heaven Gate have other powerful figures among them?”
“Probably someone else impersonating.”
“It should be someone else impersonating. However, for other forces or loose cultivators to produce such a powerful figure is rare. I wonder what opportunities he got in this evil domain.”
…
At this time, various voices rang out.
“Who are you?” Ji Chengqi looked at his opponent and asked coldly.
Originally, he wanted to cut through the mess quickly, kill the opponent, and intimidate others.
Unexpectedly, the opponent’s strength was not below his.
Not only Ji Chengqi, even Saint Heaven Gate’s people were surprised.
Although they still had seventh-layer Martial Emperor powerhouses, with suppressed cultivation, their strength could not reach the level of repelling Ji Chengqi.
These few people had just communicated with each other through divine sense. Only this guy had not responded.
With the opponent’s strength so strong, they were sure it must be someone else impersonating.
Someone was using their Saint Heaven Gate’s name to deal with Ji family.
Bo Haixuan on the other side was also greatly surprised. He did not know which one of the four with notches in their clothes this was.
However, he did not expect the opponent to have such powerful strength.
Xi Yucheng did not pay attention to Ji Chengqi’s words. Instead, he shouted loudly, “Everyone, even if you do not attack Ji family’s people, without some deaths here, we still cannot get out. Do you want to wait for them to hunt you one by one and rob you?”
Everyone’s hearts shook. They rubbed their fists and palms, eager to move.
What the opponent said was right. Even if they did not act, some people still had to die enough to get out.
If they did not unite, the ones who died would definitely be those with relatively weaker strength.
Anyway, if Ji family’s eighth and ninth-layer Martial Emperors did not die, they would die after going out. Better to fight freely.
“Your current identities, Ji family’s people do not know. What are you still afraid of?”
“Saint Heaven Gate’s people, Canglong Gate’s people, our two or three eighth-layer Martial Emperors were all killed by Ji family’s people. Can you swallow this anger?”
“Are our two major sects far inferior to Ji family?”
“Are we all to be called cowards by others, called cowards by our fellow disciples?”
Xi Yucheng said repeatedly. His voice rolled, shaking everyone’s eardrums.
Saint Heaven Gate and Canglong Gate’s faces looked ugly. They suddenly had the impulse to kill this guy. Who did not know this guy was impersonating, actually stealing Saint Heaven Gate’s name to borrow their power.
But what the opponent said was very reasonable.
Their respective eighth-layer Martial Emperors were all killed. Although it could not be completely confirmed that Ji family’s people did it.
However, both sects’ eighth-layer Martial Emperors were dead, while Ji family still had one eighth-layer Martial Emperor and one ninth-layer Martial Emperor alive.
At this time, if they still did not dare to act, when it spread back, they would definitely be ridiculed by fellow disciples.
“Kill!” At this time, Canglong Gate’s Bi Zhuang shouted loudly and rushed toward Ji family’s people.
Canglong Gate’s others also rushed out one after another.
“Kill!”
Xi Yucheng shouted loudly and killed toward Ji family’s people.
Saint Heaven Gate’s people also had to kill toward them.
With their current strength, the two sects combined did not have much advantage.
After all, the opponents had Ji Chengqi, one eighth-layer Martial Emperor, and the ninth-layer Martial Emperor.
However, the disadvantage was not too great. After all, there was one who could contend with Ji Chengqi, and that Canglong Gate’s Bi Zhuang could also contend with the eighth-layer Martial Emperor.
But the main issue was the ninth-layer Martial Emperor, who was somewhat troublesome and needed many people to besiege.
The most important thing was that now the timing was ripe. If they took the lead now, others would join the siege.
“If the sky falls, the two major sects will hold it up. Kill!” At this time, Lin Xiao also rushed forward with his sword.
Anyway, at this time, no one knew who he was.
The eight great families and three holy lands all participated in sealing his mother. Although the specific situation was unclear, it could be considered some old grudge.
Killing some Ji family people, weakening one or two of Ji family’s core forces, might be a good thing for him in the future.
Moreover, to avoid threats after leaving the city, he had to act.
With Lin Xiao, this person outside the three major forces, leading, those eager people could not hold back and killed toward Ji family’s people one after another.
That also included the other person with a notch in the clothing corner.
Of course, there were still nearly two hundred people who did not act. Because too many people surged to attack, they watched from the periphery.
If no one went up, they would definitely go up too. But with so many rushing up, they adopted a watching attitude.
Lin Xiao also knew those people’s thoughts. They could avoid casualties and possibly reap benefits. Naturally, they would choose to watch.
However, he was not afraid at all of that group picking up any benefits afterward.
Others who rushed up had similar thoughts to Lin Xiao and besieged Ji family’s people one after another.
At this time, Ji family’s people were extremely angry.
If outside, who would dare to attack Ji family’s people?
One ninth-layer Martial Emperor was enough to suppress the whole scene.
But now, with cultivation suppressed, a group besieged them. Even if they were stronger, two fists were hard to enemy four hands.
“Our Ji family will definitely not let you go!” Not long after, someone was severely injured. After letting out an angry roar, he was hacked to death by random blades.
“Someone will definitely send our message back. Wait to be exterminated!”
“Ji family’s dignity cannot be violated. You will have retribution!”
…
Bursts of angry and roaring voices rang out one after another. One by one, Ji family people were killed successively.
Of course, many of the attackers were also killed.
Not long after, more than half of Ji family’s dozen or so people were dead.
Lin Xiao and the purple corpse puppet joined a group to kill toward one who showed relatively strong strength.
Before that person died, he also exposed his identity as an eighth-layer Martial Emperor.
At this time, that Ji Chengqi was still persisting, his body already covered in blood.
“Unexpectedly, I, Ji Chengqi, would die so miserably here. However, you should discover one thing. None of you can leave here alive. Hahaha!” Ji Chengqi shouted loudly. With a swipe of the long sword in his hand, he directly cut his own neck and committed suicide.
“Ji Chengqi is a character!” Xi Yucheng, who fought against Ji Chengqi, could not help but praise.
Then, he killed toward others again.
Not long after, all Ji family people were killed.
Canglong Gate and Saint Heaven Gate both had injured people. Quite a few from other forces died.
After killing Ji family’s people, the storage rings and human pills of Ji family people were contested by the corresponding opponents.
Among them, Lin Xiao also killed several.
Of course, for those killed by Ji family people, Lin Xiao also conveniently took quite a few storage rings and human pills.
After killing the last one, everyone stopped one after another.
The number of people decreased by another thirty or forty.
At this time, the city gate had moved out another section. However, it was still far from fully open.
What made everyone frown happened.
These people wearing Ji family attire, until they were all killed, they did not encounter anyone stronger than Ji Chengqi and that eighth-layer Martial Emperor.
That meant Ji family’s ninth-layer Martial Emperor, Ji Lei, was definitely not among them.
Instead, he was wearing other attire, hiding in the crowd!
Now, trouble.
They all acted and killed all other Ji family people. With the ninth-layer Martial Emperor still alive, once out, how could they have a way to live?
