Chapter 3561: Jun Clan's Vassal Force, Ji Clan, Ancient Dao Sect Makes Trouble
Inside the Ji Clan's station, in a wide palace,
a large group of cultivators gathered together, all core direct descendants of the Ji Clan.
At this moment, these Ji Clan direct descendants all had gloomy expressions.
Some also had sorrowful and angry faces.
On the high seat, a middle-aged man with a square face had a frozen expression and a cold, hard look.
It is the Ji Clan head, Ji Chengye.
Previously, they had sent a batch of powerhouses to suppress traitorous clans in a certain place.
As a result, they were ambushed, and not a single one could return.
It can be said that it was like adding frost to snow for the already declining Ji Clan.
"Clan head, our Ji Clan can no longer afford to be tossed around."
"Yeah, clan head, why don't we Ji Clan withdraw from the Boundless Sea first and recuperate? We can come back later."
"Exactly, clan head, some other vassal forces of the Jun Clan have also left long ago."
"Why does our Ji Clan have to persist until now?"
Below, many Ji Clan elders and cultivators all said.
The Ji Clan was originally a large clan, not necessarily the kind of top-tier group with great prestige.
But at least, it was a clan with many people and prosperous fortune.
And after becoming a vassal force of the Jun Clan and obtaining many resources for cultivation from the Jun Clan,
the Ji Clan took a step up.
But later, the Jun Clan did not appear in the vastness.
The Ji Clan kept listening to the Jun Clan's orders and sat in the Boundless Sea.
And the traitorous clans of the Boundless Sea cannot be killed or wiped out.
Even the most prosperous forces cannot withstand the erosion of countless years.
Some vassal forces of the Jun Clan gradually withered and perished in this passage of time.
Others retreated.
The Ji Clan has persisted until now.
And it is precisely because of this choice that the Ji Clan's power has declined day by day.
There are many complaints in the clan.
Hearing the words of the clan members below,
clan head Ji Chengye also clenched his fists.
At this time, someone else said: "Maybe we should have listened to Ji Tian back then."
As soon as these words came out, the whole place suddenly fell silent!
Even Ji Chengye had a frozen expression.
Ji Tian was once an extremely outstanding genius of the Ji Clan.
He was even regarded as the hope for the Ji Clan's rise again.
However, this Ji Tian proposed that the Ji Clan should leave the Boundless Sea and no longer follow the Jun Clan's orders.
At that time, his words were seen as rebellious and he was punished by the Ji Clan.
Later, Ji Tian also entered the depths of the Boundless Sea in a fit of anger and has not returned since.
Many Ji Clan members are thinking now, if they had listened to Ji Tian back then,
perhaps they wouldn't have fallen to this point now.
And they also forced away such a dazzling genius who could have revitalized the Ji Clan.
Ji Chengye's face was a bit ugly.
And just at this time, a cold snort sounded.
"What are you all saying?"
As this voice sounded, an old man in hemp clothes appeared.
When they saw this old man, all the Ji Clan cultivators present fell silent and dared not speak.
This old man is the current Ji Clan ancestor and the only pillar,
named Ji Nanshan, a peak-level Emperor powerhouse.
Seeing Ji Nanshan appear, everyone present dared not speak.
Ji Nanshan looked around and said:
"My Ji Clan has been loyal for generations; how can we disobey the orders of our master, the Jun Clan?"
"Have you forgotten how our Ji Clan rose back then?"
Hearing Ji Nanshan's words, everyone present fell silent.
Although they hadn't experienced it,
according to the history passed down from generation to generation,
their Ji Clan, in the early days, although a good large clan, actually had many enemies.
At that time, the Ji Clan had fallen into a crisis, besieged by enemies, surrounded on all sides, almost to the point where their bloodline was about to be severed.
At that time, a Ji Clan ancestor accidentally gained the appreciation of a Jun Clan powerhouse and became his servant.
Later, the Ji Clan joined the Jun Clan and became a vassal force.
From then on, no enemy ever came to find the Ji Clan again.
The Ji Clan was thus able to develop steadily.
Plus the many opportunities bestowed by the Jun Clan, and even later, the Ji Clan made contributions and was bestowed an extremely rare top-tier Emperor weapon.
Under various conditions, the Ji Clan was able to pass down to the present.
Otherwise, the Ji Clan's bloodline would probably have been hard to continue.
"The reason our Ji Clan exists is because of the protection of our master, the Jun Clan."
"Now you want to disobey the orders of our master, the Jun Clan."
"Could it be that my Ji Clan are all ungrateful people?"
Ji Nanshan spoke loudly, making everyone silent.
Their Ji Clan indeed received too much favor from the Jun Clan.
Although from the Jun Clan's perspective, it didn't count for anything at all.
Even the Jun Clan probably wouldn't care about a Ji Clan at all.
But their Ji Clan, having received the favor, must complete the mission and will never leave the Boundless Sea.
At this time, a clear and quiet voice spoke.
"Great-grandfather is right; the master Jun Clan has supported our Ji Clan, so how can we forget our roots?"
The one who spoke was a young woman with a slender and tall figure, a delicate neck, skin as white as jade, exquisite features, and eyebrows like paintings.
Wearing a water-blue long dress, she was very refined, making the woman look like a lotus flower rising from the water, naturally without carving.
This woman is named Ji Shuiyao, the most outstanding descendant of the Ji Clan in this generation.
She even chased after that Ji Tian who left the Ji Clan and never returned.
In fact, she and Ji Tian are also cousins.
And unlike Ji Tian's ideas,
Ji Tian wanted the Ji Clan to leave the Boundless Sea and not have to follow the Jun Clan's orders.
While Ji Shuiyao, like Ji Nanshan,
even had a sense of reverence for the Jun Clan.
After all, she had heard many deeds about the Jun Clan from her great-grandfather Ji Nanshan since she was a child.
When that terrifying catastrophe descended and the worlds withered,
the Jun Clan cultivators stood up and sat in the vastness.
It can be said that for that catastrophe, if there were no Jun Clan,
relying only on the Heavenly Court and other forces, the result would be hard to predict.
It is very likely that the vastness would no longer exist.
If it were said that other forces might have one or two great heroes appear,
then the Jun Clan, almost the entire clan, were heroes and outstanding people.
Those pillar-like existences, every one of them standing out, could make the worlds silent and the whole world silent.
Such a heroic family made Ji Shuiyao yearn for it.
Her greatest wish was to see the Jun Clan people with her own eyes.
It is a pity that in her time, the Jun Clan had long not appeared in the vastness.
Let alone a descendant like her, even some old people in the Ji Clan had never seen the Jun Clan people with their own eyes.
Ji Shuiyao's words made everyone silent again.
Ji Nanshan looked at Ji Shuiyao with a look of love and appreciation.
He couldn't help but think of Ji Tian again.
In terms of cultivation talent, Ji Tian was indeed a rare monster of the Ji Clan.
Alas, his temperament was not enough, too arrogant, and he thought too highly of himself.
He didn't have much respect for the master Jun Clan either.
Such a person, even if cultivated, would sooner or later cause trouble.
And just at this time, suddenly, someone from the Ji Clan arrived outside the hall and reported:
"Dongxuan Laozu, clan head, it's bad, the Ancient Dao Sect people are here!" ===== CHAPTER 3562 =====
