Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1493: Chapter 73: Does Our Young Master Need Your Discipline?! _3

He was ashamed in his heart.

Our Master is quite good in all aspects, but he’s just too straightforward and impulsive. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have risked taking revenge against the Demonic Dynasty before reaching the Transcendent Void Realm.

At this moment, exposing that Wang Anye is the inheritor of the Codex is nothing more than giving the Chaoyang King Mansion and the Wei Family a reason to band together, with their spears pointed outwards in unison.

“Anye, what you said makes a lot of sense.” Ji Wuchen also calmed down, pondering, “The matter of the Codex is of great importance. Both the Chaoyang King Mansion and the Wei Family appear determined to obtain it. Should they discover that you are my disciple, there’s no telling if they might resort to any underhanded means. Our goal, for now, is to safely meet with Sword Ji and Array Ji. As long as we find them, they will surely accept you.”

“Master, could it be that our Codex possesses two Artifact Spirits?” Wang Anye asked, puzzled.

“Naturally, our family’s Codex is the Sword Array Dual Ultimate, and both Sword Ji and Array Ji can fight independently. Moreover, once they merge and battle together, their power becomes immensely formidable,” Ji Wuchen said with deep feeling, “In the past, it was with the help of the Sword Array Dual Ultimate that I made a great name for myself in the Immortal Dynasty, even the former Immortal Emperor himself had praised our Codex.”

“You must understand, the Immortal Emperor’s standards are very high, and there aren’t many codices in the entire Immortal Dynasty that have received such an honor.”

As the master and disciple conversed, Wei Dongyu, the Old Ancestor of the Wei Family, finished delivering a slap and started offering a “sweet date.”

He paused briefly and then continued, “Although the Sword Array Dual Ultimate is indeed a treasure of the Human race, the Ji Family has been its custodian for so many years, and they deserve some recognition for their efforts, if not for merit. How about this, Primordial Toughness brother, let’s just make an agreement here between our two families that whoever inherits the Codex in the future will not mistreat the Ji Family.”

“What Brother Wei said is very true; our Chaoyang King Mansion will certainly not be petty.”

The two of them soothed the Ji Family in their back-and-forth exchange.

After all, the Codex was not yet in their hands, and they also feared that causing a fuss with the Ji Family might attract swarms of competitors, making the competition fiercer, and therein reducing the chances for Wei Qingyun and Yun Tai’an to obtain the Codex.

Even though they had confidence in their own children, they were well aware that there were always plenty of outstanding youths in the Immortal Dynasty.

Today’s Immortal Dynasty is not what it was tens of thousands of years ago; the internal competition is incredibly intense.

The Codex of each family is limited, yet there is a considerable number of young people eligible to compete for them, which is why among the Prominent Families, there are many with excellent Talent who have missed their chance due to a slight misstep in the competition.

If they inadvertently provoke someone formidable, it would be difficult to deal with the aftermath.

The two men’s harmonious dialogue gradually turned the anger on the face of the Ji Family’s Old Ancestor into resignation.

At this point, where did he have any room to resist?

In terms of reason, his family didn’t have a leg to stand on; in terms of strength, they were only slightly better than ants in front of the Chaoyang King Mansion and the Jingan Wei Family.

If the Chaoyang King Mansion and the Wei Family chose to disregard their reputation and force the issue, he wouldn’t have any way to counter them. After all, in terms of reason, the Ji Family could at best be considered a custodian of the Codex, having the right of priority in inheritance, but without the right to prevent others.

“If that’s the case, this old man has nothing more to say,” sighed the Ji Family’s Old Ancestor resignedly, “but the Sword Array Dual Ultimate Codex is not easily appeased, and they set the rule long ago that only Trialists are allowed within five hundred miles of the Sword Tomb. Others must not intervene.”

“If the two young masters wish to earn the recognition of the Codex, then let our Ji Yanxiu lead them. Whether they succeed or fail, whichever one Sword Formation Double Ji ultimately selects, it shall be based solely on their own abilities.”

“Good, good, good,” Wei Dongyu laughed heartily, “If so, this old man and King Chaoyang will have a little chat at the Ji’s. As for who will inherit the Codex afterward, it’s all up to the young people’s own capabilities.”

“Much appreciated, Old Ancestor Yuanxing,” Yao Yuangang nodded in satisfaction.

Although there was a hiccup along the way, he believed in his Tai An; with his Talent in the Sword Dao, he was sure to gain the Codex’s recognition.

While they were talking, Wei Qingyun and Yun Tai’an had already begun parting from their Old Ancestors to set out. Meanwhile, Ji Yanxiu, who had been kneeling on the ground, also wiped away her tears and stood up, preparing to lead the way for both of them.

“Wait!”

At this moment, Jiqianqian, who had been enduring silently while being supported by Ji Yuanxing, finally could no longer restrain herself and spoke out coldly, “I also want to participate in the Codex’s trials.”

“Qianqian, you…” The Ji Family’s Old Ancestor was taken aback and then realized the situation, scolding, “To participate in the Codex’s trials, one must at least be a Great Heavenly Proud to qualify; do not cause a disturbance here.”

“Great Grandfather, through my own efforts, I have gained the approval of the Purple Void Sacred Land, and with the resources I fought for, I have achieved the status of Ding Grade Celestial Genius,” Jiqianqian said, slightly lifting her pretty face, her eyes filled with determination, “I know that with the Bloodline Talent of a beginner Great Heavenly Proud, the hope of obtaining the inheritance is slim, but I still want to try.”

Old Ancestor Yuanxing was taken aback upon hearing this, then the originally despondent look on his face rekindled with a glow, and a tear appeared in the corner of his eye, “Good, good, good, Grandpa Old Ancestor indeed hasn’t misjudged you. Let’s go and try, even if it’s just to gain some experience it’s good.”

“Welcome, Miss Ji, to join the competition,” Wei Qingyun smiled gracefully at Jiqianqian, his demeanor gentle and elegant, “Having the company of Miss Ji will certainly add to the liveliness.”
