Traveling through the heavens from swallowing

Chapter 493 Professional and More Professional, Partner of Justice, Half-Step Great Supreme Elder

"you."

"I am Ji Kai, the elder of the Ji family. Congratulations to the Holy Son Li for surviving the heavenly tribulation and achieving perfection in the four extremes. We came here to hunt down the remnants of the Lian Cangshan who have committed so many evil things. I didn't expect to have the honor of seeing the Holy Son surviving the tribulation. It is truly a great honor!"

Liu Mang had just said two words when Ji Kai answered first.

As an elder of the Ji family, Ji Kai has received professional training and has a complete set of methods to deal with masters whom he cannot defeat.

Once these words were spoken, regardless of whether Liu Mang intended to let them go or not, at least he did feel quite comfortable. If there was no reason to kill them, Liu Mang would be inclined to let them go.

Lian Cangshan's group seemed to have just woken up from a dream. Lu Changhong opened his mouth, but found that he could not think of anything to say. He could only watch Ji Kai and Liu Mang communicate, and he did not even dare to interrupt.

Compared with Ji Kailai, this life-saving quality is not even a little bit inferior. As expected, this thing that no one has ever heard of, Lian Cangshan, is not a big force and does not even have this basic quality.

Liu Mang was a little speechless. The people of Lian Cangshan were really no good. Ji Kai said that they had done many evil things, but they didn't even say a word of rebuttal. It was equivalent to admitting it directly. This was irresponsible for their own lives.

He thought that it couldn't be just the Ji family talking. As the saying goes, listening to both sides will lead to enlightenment, while listening to only one side will lead to confusion. Both sides had to explain the cause and effect truthfully. Only then could Liu Mang understand the truth and take charge of the overall situation!

So he signaled Ji Kai to shut up first, and turned to look at Lu Changhong, who was obviously the leader of Lian Cangshan's group. He asked:
"Is what Elder Ji Kai said true?"

Even after being given such an opportunity, if they still don't know how to refute and make up a slightly acceptable story to deceive Liu Mang, then they are truly hopeless.

Lu Changhong didn't know whether he was frightened or what, he hesitated for a long time, and then gave an answer that shocked Liu Mang:

"Basically true."

Liu Mang leaned back tactically and looked at him in disbelief. The divine light covering his body flickered instantly.

Not to mention Liu Mang, even Ji Kai was shocked. What was he doing? Did he not want to live?

The scene was a little awkward for a moment. Liu Mang quickly started thinking, and all kinds of guesses ran through his mind, but he still couldn't figure out what was going on.

Even his original certainty that Lian Cangshan was not a good thing became a little uncertain.

Why would such an honest criminal be so bold to admit his crime when confessing would not result in leniency?

Could it be that he saw that Liu Mang was also a bad guy, and planned to use the mutual sympathy between two bad guys to save his life?

"Are you sure? Do you want to think about it again?" Liu Mang reminded kindly.

Lu Changhong shook his head and said firmly: "What the Ji family said is correct, it is basically true, I have nothing to correct."

Liu Mang was immediately conflicted. He wanted to keep the criminal temporarily to see if there was any money he could make from him, but the criminal refused to cooperate at all and seemed to be seeking death.

How can he maintain his righteous image in front of the Ji family and protect them at the same time?

As he was thinking, Liu Mang suddenly realized that it seemed that he was trying to save Lian Cangshan and his group, whom he had originally planned to kill just for asking a few questions.

He was suddenly startled and realized that this was not an accident, but that Lian Cangshan did it on purpose!
He knew that Lian Cangshan could not compare with the ancient Ji family in terms of reputation and credibility. He had also heard before that Liu Mang was the Holy Son of Yaoguang Holy Land. Yaoguang Holy Land and the Ji family were both located in the southern region of the Eastern Wasteland, and were extremely powerful forces of the same level, so they had some friendship with each other.

In this situation, as long as the Ji family speaks, no matter how he refutes, the Son of Yaoguang Holy Land will naturally not believe him.

Then he might as well do the opposite, honestly admit his guilt, and use actions to restore Liu Mang's impression, maybe he can make him think that there is something hidden.

After all, who would honestly confess their guilt? Could it be that the Ji family was bullying him and forcing him to not even dare to refute?
As long as Liu Mang is not determined to kill him, he must understand the actual situation before taking action. This is the opportunity.

After figuring everything out, Liu Mang took a deep breath. This operation was so brilliant, he was really manipulated!

Before, he thought that Lian Cangshan and his gang were of low quality and could only wait for death when they encountered an opponent they could not defeat. It turned out that he was shallow. It was not that their quality was low, but that it was too high. Liu Mang felt that he would not be able to handle this situation better than Lian Cangshan, the leader.

Sure enough, if a small force wants to survive between the big forces, it really needs to work harder than the big forces.

Ji Kai was unaware of Lu Changhong's conspiracy. Although he was wondering why the other party suddenly went crazy, as long as he could take him away, it would be his victory.

"Saint Son Li, you see he has admitted it himself. Without any comment, allow me to capture these people first and complete the task. Later, I will prepare gifts and go to Yaoguang Holy Land to congratulate you on achieving the greatest perfection of the four extremes. Although their strength is average, they are the people that the Holy Lord of my Ji family has personally ordered. I really dare not delay." Ji Kai said with a lick on his face.

Liu Mang sighed, it had been a long time since he met someone who was so cautious in his words and actions.

Not only did this sound nice, it also revealed that these four people were the Ji family's saints' main needs. If they were ordinary saints, they would probably be shocked and give them this face, but Liu Mang was not an ordinary saint.

Moreover, the main person in the Ji family might have some good stuff in his hands. Can he just hand it over?

"No, I think they have something to hide. The Ji family has always been overbearing, and I have heard about it. If they are afraid of your Ji family's strength and choose to admit that they are not guilty of a crime, then I will hand them over to you, which is not in line with my justice."

"It's decided. I will interrogate you separately until the truth is revealed and the true evil is dealt a fatal blow!"

Liu Mang spoke confidently and with a righteous look on his face. The divine wheel behind his head shone brightly, making him look sacred and majestic.

Judging from his appearance, what's wrong with Liu Mang making a cameo appearance as the God of Light or the God of Justice?

Do you doubt my justice? Look at my magic wheel that can kill a dragon in seconds and reorganize your words!

Ji Kai's face froze. The divine wheel that gave him a sense of fatal threat was said to be one of the invincible ancient visions, the Great Sun Divine Wheel. The records of it in ancient books were basically related to light, masculinity, courage, justice and so on. It was definitely a vision of a positive character.

Those who have this kind of vision are, in theory, partners of justice, and they dare to turn the world upside down for the sake of justice.

Ji Kai did not doubt whether Liu Mang made this decision out of justice. The records in ancient books had told him that this was absolutely out of justice, and he had nothing to doubt.

However, as a partner of justice, Ji Kai does not consider himself a good person. Facing such a light of justice, how can he take people away safely?

Even if his evil were to be exposed in the light of justice, it would be a question whether he could even escape, let alone take the person away.

Moreover, if they were interrogated separately, if they happened to reveal the matter of the Chaos Stone, it would be a huge disaster!
Justice is justice, interests are interests. Chaos Stone is a supreme immortal material, and no cultivator would not be tempted by it. Once the news leaks out, it will be basically impossible for him to get it.

As an elder of the Ji family who had achieved the ninth transformation of a dragon, Ji Kai had his own pride. After practicing the "Void Sutra", his strength was not much different from that of an ordinary immortal of the eleventh level.

But he was really useless in fighting for the Chaos Stone. Only the Saint Lords of various factions could have a chance to snatch this treasure with their Extreme Emperor Weapons. He was just an elder of the Ji family who had transformed into a dragon and had no right to show his face on such a battlefield.

His only chance to get the Chaos Stone was to force the information out of the person before it leaked out and secretly get it. But now, Liu Mang planned to interrogate each person separately, and there was no guarantee that he would not get some information about the Chaos Stone out of him, which would be bad.

Putting myself in their shoes, if Ji Kai was in Liu Mang's position, if he got any information about the Chaos Stone, he would definitely kill all of them.

As I said just now, justice should be justice and interests should be interests. Even if you are a partner of justice, it is hard to say whether you can maintain your justice when faced with such a huge temptation.

When it comes to silencing mouths, the partners of justice are likely to be more thorough than the embodiment of evil.

Ji Kai wanted to resist, but when he thought of the scene where his ancestor, the Void Emperor, had his human-shaped lightning blown up by the other party, all his courage disappeared.

He transformed into a dragon with nine transformations, while the opponent's four elements were fully perfected, but there was no doubt that if a fight really came up, he would be crushed by the opponent. This was something that everyone could foresee without even fighting.

Ji Kai was suddenly filled with sadness and felt that his life had never been so dark.

"Grand Elder, I hope you will quickly realize that we have lost contact. Otherwise, this Chaos Stone will not only have nothing to do with me, but also with the entire Ji family."

Tens of thousands of miles away, on a towering, strangely shaped mountain, blood and corpses were everywhere. Some monks in armor were dealing with corpses and searching for treasures, and the smell of blood filled the sky.

This is Lian Cangshan, a well-known demon sect in the southern region of the East Wilderness. They kill people and refine medicine, and raise humans and animals on a daily basis. However, due to their powerful strength, no one dared to mess with them until they encountered the Ji family.

As a sect with immortal monks, Lian Cangshan is invincible in a wide area. Even small sects like Lingxu Dongtian can be wiped out by Lian Cangshan with just a breath.

It could have been passed down for thousands of years, and Lian Cangshan was well versed in the ways of survival in the southern region of the Eastern Wilderness. He would never dare to provoke the powerful local cultivation forces, such as the Ji family, the Yaoguang Holy Land, and the big sects such as the Taixuan Sect, the Xiaoyao Sect, and the Qingfeng Sect.

But the reason why the Demon Sect is the Demon Sect is because they cannot control their desires and are used to being lawless. One day they will offend a powerful force.

One day, Ji Haoyue, the Ji family's divine king body, passed by nearby. Because his information was too well protected by the Ji family, even Cangshan did not recognize him. In the eyes of the demon cultivators, the origin of that divine body was undoubtedly a great tonic, and someone took action on the spot.

As a result, a Daogong of the same level went up and was killed in one move. A more powerful Daogong followed, but also could not escape the fate of death.

Then came the cultivator of the first level of the Four Extremes. His situation was much better and he fought a fierce battle with the opponent, but after nearly a hundred rounds he was still at a disadvantage.

As soon as the cultivators from Lian Cangshan saw that things were not going well, several Four Extremes cultivators surrounded them.

Ji Haoyue was only at the third level of the Taoist Palace. He was no match for the siege. His life-saving talisman was knocked out and he escaped by teleporting hundreds of miles away.

Then within three days, the supreme elder of the Ji family brought people to settle the accounts. Without saying a word, he killed the head of the Xiantai of Lian Cangshan, and ordered the Ji family to massacre Lian Cangshan, demanding that no one should be spared.

Lian Cangshan's great elder Lu Changhong took the opportunity to escape at that time, and Ji Kai was responsible for leading people to chase him.

But now almost a day has passed, and not only have Ji Kai and his group not returned, they have even lost contact.

This discovery immediately alarmed the Ji family here, and an elder who had transformed into a dragon quickly found the newly promoted supreme elder Ji Changkong to report the situation.

When Ji Changkong heard the situation, his brows suddenly frowned.

"What's going on with this Ji Kai? He insisted on bringing people to chase him before, and now he's missing again. Did he discover something?"

Ji Changkong shook his head. Without any information, he couldn't guess anything. He could only find Ji Kai and ask.

"Where was Ji Kai and the others' last contact?" Ji Changkong asked.

The elder who was reporting was already prepared and answered immediately: "It is near the Death Gobi Desert. The news sent back said that they were going to chase in. After that, nine hours passed, and until now, there has been no new news."

Ji Changkong frowned even more: "Death Gobi?"

That is a place that the Ji family has clearly stated that no one is allowed to enter at will below the fairy platform. It was the location of the demon clan's royal court in the southern region of the East Wilderness thousands of years ago. From time to time, real big demons would go in to pay tribute. It might be dangerous to run in casually.

He had to chase after her, obviously there was something that prompted Ji Kai to make this decision.

Ji Changkong murmured to himself: "Could it be that Lu Changhong has some treasure?"

Before he finished speaking, the other person had disappeared. This was a simple and mysterious method recorded in the "Void Sutra". It could merge with the void and burst out at an extremely fast speed. It was the main means of travel for Ji family cultivators above the Immortal Stage.

Compared to the rainbow flight, this method is more advanced and faster, and has a certain ability to weaken attacks. Although it is a very simple and basic thing, it does not mean that it is not easy to use. When Ji Changkong used it, he only took a short time to walk tens of thousands of miles and came to the outside of the Death Gobi.

There are requirements for the level of cultivation to become the Ji family's supreme elder. The lowest one has to be a half-step great master at the nineteenth level of the immortal realm. This is basically universal among the extreme forces, and everyone's supreme elder is held to this standard.

Ji Changkong is the newly promoted Grand Elder of the Ji family. He only broke through to the nineteenth level of the Immortal Realm four years ago and became the Grand Elder. His strength is at the bottom among the Grand Elders.

But even if he is at the bottom, he is still the supreme elder, a half-step great power. If he uses all his strength to cause destruction, the land of hundreds of miles will be corrupted and the mountains will collapse.

There is a natural chasm between Xiantai and Hualong. There are not many people in the entire universe who can cross this chasm and fight against higher-level enemies.

A half-step great power can be considered a true strong man no matter where he is. In the entire Yaoguang Holy Land, there are only about a hundred people who are above the half-step great power level.

Ji Changkong looked at the lifeless wilderness of the Death Gobi Desert and without hesitation, he entered it directly.

The Death Gobi Desert, which is a den of dragons and tigers for ordinary members of the Ji family, is nothing to a half-step great power.

Among the remnants of the former demon clan royal court, none has reached the level of a powerful being. Ji Changkong is the strongest one under the powerful being. What does he have to be afraid of?

He spread out his spiritual sense to search for the whereabouts of Ji Kai and his group, and soon got the result.

Because more than a dozen streams of light were flying towards this side at a very fast speed, he recognized at a glance that they were his own people.

But Ji Kai was not in the team.

Ji Changkong's aura was as empty as the abyss and as deep and unfathomable as the sea. It was as conspicuous as the bright moon in the night sky. The knights of the Ji family soon discovered Ji Changkong.

Relief and relief appeared in their eyes. With the Grand Elder in front of them, they were finally safe!
Rushing closer, several knights shouted in panic: "Grand Elder, Elder Ji Kai was killed by Li Hong, the new Holy Son of Yaoguang Holy Land!"

Ji Changkong's words to ask about Ji Kai's whereabouts got stuck in his throat and turned into one word: "Ah?"
