Within the palace.
Ji Guyun's enthusiasm helped to dissolve the awkward atmosphere.
Being able to disregard the small details and be on the same generation as Ye Xiong and the Sword Saint made Ye Xiong and the Sword Saint feel flattered. They drank and chatted happily, and instead, they got along very well.
Emperor Huang and Nie Hun were clearly embarrassed, they all shook their heads and laughed bitterly, and could only drink, listening to Ji Guyun and the rest talking and laughing.
Ye Ling and Xia Huai drank the wine alone, as though they were being ignored.
As for Ji Yuerong, she sat in front of her father, Ji Guyun, with her eyes wide open, staring straight at Ye Ling.
In fact, when she found out about Ye Ling's identity and background, she found it strange that Ye Ling was actually such an unforgivable scoundrel!
"My two brothers, are you here to help me seal the Ancient God this time?"
After eating his fill, Ji Guyun was the first to break the silence. He immediately returned to the main topic at hand, and brought up the matter of the seal.
Hearing Ji Guyun's words, Ye Xiong and the Sword Saint were surprised. They looked at Ji Guyun and then turned to look at Ye Ling.
Ye Ling ignored them and continued drinking alone, making it difficult for Sword Saint and Ye Xiong, because the ones who were taking the initiative were Ye Ling and had nothing to do with them.
Xia Huai had a strange expression. Looking at Ye Ling who looked as if nothing had happened, he couldn't really speak, so he could only remain silent.
When Ji Guyun, who was standing in the middle of the hall, saw Ye Xiong and the rest's current state, he could guess that all of these would depend on Ye Ling's opinion.
"Scoundrel!"
"Didn't you take the initiative to ask for it?"
"Why are you pretending to be deaf and mute right now? Could it be that you came here to watch a joke?"
Ji Yuerong, who was sitting on top of the palace, saw that the few people in the palace were all waiting for her to reply, but Ye Ling actually pretended to ignore her, fiercely biting her lips, and questioned Ye Ling loudly.
She remembered clearly that she was the one who had come for Ye Ling and now she wanted to watch without doing anything, how could there be such a cheap thing in the world?
Hearing Ji Yuehong's sudden anger, Ji Guyun, who was sitting at the side, was surprised. His daughter had always been docile and obedient, but now she was so angry from embarrassment?
They clearly remembered that Ji Yuerong had obstructed Ye Ling from coming to Heavenly Moon Palace in a myriad of ways, and now she was even taking the initiative to question Ye Ling?
In the face of Ji QI, Ye Ling looked at Ji Yuerong with disdain, and then unhurriedly poured himself a cup with the wine pot.
"I'm just a nobody. You're just a scoundrel, why do you need to ask me about it?"
Ye Ling raised his wine cup and unenthusiastically said those words, but he expressed his great dissatisfaction with Ji Guyun and Ji Yuerong. After that, he drank it all in one go and did not speak any further.
"You …!"
When Ji Yuerong heard Ye Ling's careless words, she actually felt extremely angry.
When Ye Xiong and the others heard it, they could only bitterly smile and shake their heads. Ye Ling knew that they were clearly trying to reason with him, and from the looks of it, he was not satisfied with them.
Ji Guyun, who was sitting at the top of the hall, shook his head and laughed. Seeing how petty Ye Ling was, he actually felt it was funny.
"Little friend Ye Ling, don't tell me you're going to lose your temper with this old man?"
"We can be considered friends if we don't fight. I also thank you for letting me taste defeat. How about I toast this cup of wine to you?"
Ji Guyun looked down at Ye Ling with a smile, picked up the wine cup on the table, and raised his cup in's direction.
He, Ji Guyun, only respected the strong. There were very few who could fight against him, but the number of people who could defeat him could be counted on one hand.
But today, Ye Ling had completely defeated him, and he had neglected and ignored Ye Ling previously, simply to avoid embarrassment.
"I can't accept this wine."
"Senior, let's just say that how do we re-seal the origin of this Ancient Era's Divine Spirit?"
Seeing Ji Guyun toast, Ye Ling shook his head instead and did not accept it.
With Ji Guyun's seniority, how could he accept it at his age?
He, Ye Ling, did not want to lose his lifespan, so he changed the topic to avoid being unreasonable. He, Ye Ling, did not want to be ridiculed by others because of this.
"Ha ha!"
Seeing that Ye Ling did not accept, Ji Guyun was not angry. Instead, he smiled and nodded, "Alright, since little friend is a straightforward person, then this old man will stop talking nonsense."
"Humph!" "He pretends to be arrogant and doesn't know how to appreciate favors. Just by looking at him, one can tell that he isn't a good person!"
Ji Yuehong saw that Ye Ling did not appreciate her kindness, but she felt extremely dissatisfied. Her father was kind enough to ask for peace, but Ye Ling was actually putting on airs?
Hearing Ji Yuerong's words, Ye Xiong and the others had strange expressions. Ji Yuerong was against Ye Ling in such a way that it seemed impossible for them to forgive her.
"You little girl, are you going to shut up?"
"If it wasn't for you, would we have had to make things so awkward with your father?"
"Can't you have a snack? Can't you use your brain? "
Nie Hun could not hold back his anger, he looked at Ji Yuerong who was seated, and immediately started criticizing. In his opinion, Ye Ling was full of anger.
His anger had yet to dissipate but Ji Yuerong was still causing trouble. She bit Ye Ling and did not want to speak, which seemed to be a little too much.
Hearing Nie Hun's words, Ji Yue Hong's little face turned red like fire, and she looked at Ye Ling with a slightly evasive gaze.
Ji Guyun laughed without a word, casting a glance at his daughter Ji Yuehong, and then looked at Ye Ling and said, "My daughter might be simple-minded, but her heart is not bad. Little friend, you shouldn't quibble with her over nothing, so as to avoid hurting our relationship? "
I, Ye Ling, am not a narrow-minded person, but only think that she is very cute. There might be some misunderstanding between her and I, but this matter is not too big of a problem. "
"Very good!"
"Then let's get back to the main topic at hand. This Ancient Divine Spirit has the ability to survive in the Ancient Battlefield. Back then, this old man entered the Ancient Battlefield to search for Lord Blood God's whereabouts and accidentally discovered this Ancient Divine Spirit."
"In the beginning, I had originally planned to kill him. However, after discovering that this Ancient Era's Divine Spirit was not an ordinary Divine Spirit, that he possessed the bloodline of a King, that he possessed an immortal body, even if I killed him, he would revive once again."
"Therefore, I will temporarily suppress him, and walk around the ancient battlefield alone for a long time until I find out that a person named Zhan Wuji was able to create the Nine Dragons Sky Domain …"
Ji Guyun explained the sequence of events. It was too complicated, and they were separated by nearly a era's worth of time.
However, from Ji Guyun's words, it could be known that Ji Guyun had stayed in the Ancient Battlefield for the longest period of time. During that time when he fought against the Underworld Realm, he had stayed in the Ancient Battlefield.
It was only when Zhan Wuji rose up that he got his attention. Because at that time, Ji Guyun's strength had greatly declined in order to not be able to suppress the Ancient Era's Gods, he had thought of using Zhan Wuji's power to help him suppress the Ancient Era's Gods.
That was the reason why he had appeared on the Setting Sun Mountain. As for the sealing technique that sealed the Ancient Era's Gods, it was also laid down by him and Zhan Wuji.
After figuring out what had happened, Ye Ling couldn't help but feel shocked. The Ji Guyun in front of him was indeed amazing, to be able to survive in the Ancient Battlefield until now was indeed a miracle.
"Senior, can you bring us to see this Ancient Divine Spirit?"
Hearing that,'s heart shook, but he could not stop his curiosity. What was the difference between Ancient Gods and humans?
Therefore, Ye Ling really wanted to take a look. After all, he was the Lord of All Things in the Ancient Era, being blessed by the heavens, there was naturally something different about him.
Hearing Ye Ling's suggestion, Ji Guyun did not reject, and just as he was nodding his head, he suddenly waved his hand, and a scene appeared in the sky above the hall.
In the scene, it was covered with lightning, as though it was an abyss. The interior was filled with flashing lightning, blade-shadows filled the surroundings, the strong gales were extremely terrifying.
However, right at this terrifying place that caused one's scalp to go numb, a figure actually floated in midair. His four limbs were locked by huge chains, and his entire body was suffused with a thick black aura.
Its four limbs were covered with black scales, and its head was towering. Its appearance was peculiar, possessing a human's body. However, its appearance was like that of a fierce beast's.
Just as Ye Ling and the rest were opening their eyes to look at the Divine Spirit, suddenly, they saw that Divine Spirit had raised its head, its eyes were wide as though they were spewing fire, its expression sinister to the point of being terrifying.
This god, he actually had a bloodthirsty grin on his face, as though he could also see Ye Ling and the others, which was why he seemed to be so furious.
"Ji Guyun, you can't stop this sovereign from going."
"When I see the light of day again, I will cut your corpse into ten thousand pieces and have all of the human slaves serve me. Drink their blood and eat their flesh, and the blood will definitely flow like rivers and reopen the gates of heaven!"
The person on the screen was actually roaring at Ji Guyun from a distance. He hated Ji Guyun to the bones, and had revealed his brutal, bloodthirsty, and cruel side.
They were filled with great resentment towards the human race. They actually wanted to welcome their fellow creatures from outside this region. They wanted to set off a bloody storm and burn their souls to ashes.
Ye Ling, Ye Xiong and the rest's expression changed, all of them had pale faces. This Ancient God was extremely savage, to actually let them feel his terror despite the distance.
Such a deity, seeing the light of day once more, would surely cause rivers of blood to flow. As he himself had said, the world would never be peaceful again.
Ji Guyun's face turned ugly. He suddenly waved his arm, and the image of the hall was shattered. It was not the first time he had heard the ancient deity say that.
If it wasn't for the fact that his own strength was limited and he was unable to kill this Ancient Era's God, he would have torn his corpse into ten thousand pieces to eliminate all future troubles.
Ye Ling's expression tensed up. He only watched the ancient god from a distance and was able to sense the astonishing Qi in the person's body.
As for the lightning in that abyss, it was mainly formed by the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder. The fact that this Ancient Era's Divine Spirit was actually able to live through the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, proved how frightening and abnormal that person was.
"Brother Ji, how do you want us to help you?"
Ye Xiong's face was extremely gloomy, he realized the terror of the ancient gods, he knew that this matter could not be underestimated, he had to pay attention to it.
