This young man owes me a large sum of money, and his father wants to kill me. Ji Mo harbors no good feelings for the Ximen family.
Today, it's time to settle old scores, and he won't let any of them off.
Upon seeing Ji Mo appear, Madam Chi's panicked heart found some solace.
However, she was still uncertain. Now that the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Array Diagram was lost, their greatest reliance was gone. Could Ji Mo turn the tide?
Cui Niang discovered that the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Array Diagram had fallen into the hands of Ximen Yaoqing. Her heart cried out that things were developing for the worse. The Ximen family would never let the Chi family off easily. Could Mr. Ji reverse the situation?
Rouge's good impression of Ji Mo grew significantly.
In the current situation, it would be best to distance themselves from the Chi family to avoid being implicated.
Yet, Ji Mo completely disregarded this, still getting involved. He was truly a man of courage!
The Moon Sect indeed needed such a bold "Saintess."
Bonny, like a young bride, clung tightly to Ji Mo's side, inexplicably believing that as long as Ji Mo stepped forward, everything would be resolved.
"Ji, you're not dead?!"
Ximen Yaoqing looked as if he had seen a ghost, unable to believe his eyes.
Ximen Cang's expression was extremely solemn. He swallowed hard, his legs trembling slightly.
He could not forget the scene that night. Several powerful individuals had joined forces, only to be beaten like vegetables by Ji Mo. If he hadn't decisively activated the Evil Prison Shadow Kill Array, he might have perished that night.
Now, discovering that even the Evil Prison Shadow Kill Array could not kill Ji Mo, he was even more panicked and terrified.
"You're a wicked one. Every time we meet, you wish me dead, but alas, I'm alive and well."
Ji Mo strode forward and said, "Today, you must repay the money, and your father, well, he must repay with his life."
The entire place fell silent at his words.
Many wondered who this reckless youth was, what his background was, to dare speak to the Ximen family in such a manner. Was he courting death?
Those who knew Ji Mo quickly explained, "This is the esteemed Ji Mo, Mr. Ji, who wrote 'When Will the Bright Moon Appear.' He is said to be the designated son-in-law of the Chi family. The gifts he brought to the Chi residence last time were two Golden Immortal peak sea monsters. A formidable individual skilled in both literary and martial arts."
Then, a creature boldly speculated, "Judging by the reactions of the Chi family father and son, could it be that the person the Chi family dealt with using the Evil Prison Shadow Kill Array a few nights ago was this very individual?"
If the facts were indeed so, then it was terrifying!
Such a young person was actually a terrifying existence at the Immortal Emperor level!
"Ji Mo, don't be so arrogant. No matter how powerful you are, can you fight against the ten thousand experts I have on the field? I advise you not to meddle in the Chi family's affairs. We will settle our grievances another day."
Ximen Cang forced himself to remain calm.
This time, elites from over a dozen forces had joined forces, totaling nearly ten thousand experts. No matter how powerful Ji Mo was, did he dare to fight against ten thousand alone?
Once the sea tribes came ashore, it would be easy to deal with Ji Mo.
"Patriarch Ximen, stop with the useless talk. Young Master Ji is settling a personal grievance with your Ximen family. Why are you bringing others into this? Your son, Ximen Yaoqing, owes Young Master Ji a large sum of Immortal Crystals, and you have also attempted to take Young Master Ji's life. Others are not foolish enough to clean up your mess for you. Moreover, anyone who opposes Young Master Ji is opposing our Moon Sect."
Rouge spoke up to support Ji Mo, simultaneously clarifying their stance. The Moon Sect stood on Ji Mo's side.
These words caused a stir.
Everyone knew that the Moon Sect had always focused on business and never interfered in the disputes of any faction. Why were they breaking tradition this time to side with Ji Mo?
Could it be that handsome men could truly do as they pleased?
The Moon Sect belonged to the first-rate force, the Wind Flower Snow Moon Cult. Unless absolutely necessary, no one would easily offend them. Therefore, Rouge's words carried significant weight.
"Personal grievances, we naturally will not interfere."
"That's right, this is the Ximen family's own business, what does it have to do with us."
The forces that accompanied Ximen Cang all expressed their stance, stating they would not intervene.
They were not foolish enough to be used as pawns by Ximen Cang, nor did they need to stick their necks out and offend Ji Mo and the Moon Sect.
Furthermore, they all had their own selfish motives. If Ji Mo destroyed the Ximen family, then everyone could carve up the Ximen family's immense profits.
Ximen Cang's face turned ashen. These people were clearly intending to let him die. How malicious!
"Miss Hanzhu, save me!"
Ximen Cang cried out in panic. At this moment, only Hanzhu could issue orders to mobilize these people and kill Ji Mo, saving him.
Hanzhu was indeed hiding nearby. After seeing the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Array Diagram fall into Ximen Yaoqing's hands, she had become ambitious and smug, thinking of the fame and rewards she would receive after taking Blue Jade City, and how her status would soar.
But upon seeing Ji Mo appear, she was stunned.
She dared not reveal herself. Without the protection of the clam shell, she might not be able to withstand even one punch from Ji Mo.
"Even if the King of Heaven himself came, it would be useless."
Ji Mo gave Ximen Cang no chance to escape. He stepped forward, kicking up stone fragments beneath his feet.
In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Ximen Cang and threw a punch.
Boom!
Before everyone could even see clearly, they saw Ximen Cang fly backward, his body crashing through several houses before collapsing in a pool of blood.
One punch.
With just one punch, Ximen Cang was taken down without even a chance to resist.
Everyone present was dumbfounded. He was too fierce, too brutal. They absolutely could not afford to offend this man named Ji, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Quickly destroy the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Array Diagram!"
Hanzhu secretly transmitted a message to Ximen Yaoqing. If they couldn't take it, they should destroy it. The plan would still be considered successful.
As long as the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Array Diagram was gone, there would be no pressure for the sea tribe's army to break through Blue Jade City.
Ximen Yaoqing did not dare to delay. He used all his strength, frantically pulling at the array diagram in his hands, intending to tear it apart on the spot.
"Mr. Ji, quickly snatch back the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Array Diagram!"
Madam Chi shouted anxiously, afraid that the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Array Diagram would be destroyed.
"Alright, Sister. Don't worry, I'll snatch it back for you."
Ji Mo turned around and disappeared from his original position again, lunging towards Ximen Yaoqing, "Hand it over."
He arrived in an instant, grabbing at the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Array Diagram and pulling it over.
Hiss...
Originally, Ximen Yaoqing, with all his might, had only managed to tear a small notch in the array diagram. But now, Ji Mo's force was too great, directly tearing the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Array Diagram apart.
The incredibly resilient Heaven and Earth Three Talents Array Diagram shattered into several pieces.
With the Heaven and Earth Three Talents Array Diagram destroyed, some were heartbroken, while others rejoiced.
The plan had succeeded, and Hanzhu no longer cared about the lives of these pawns, leaving with a smile.
Since her objective had been achieved, these chess pieces were no longer of much use.
She needed to contact the sea tribe's army immediately and capture Blue Jade City as soon as possible.
"You scoundrel, why did you destroy my sister's treasure?"
Ji Mo looked at the fragments in his hand, feeling a moment of awkwardness, then quickly shifted the blame, making Ximen Yaoqing the scapegoat.
He kicked Ximen Yaoqing down and kicked him several more times, causing Ximen Yaoqing to cough up blood and cry out in pain.
"Brother Ji, show some restraint. His life is still useful."
Madam Chi quickly intervened, still hoping to extract Chi Qingying's whereabouts from Ximen Yaoqing.
Ximen Yaoqing curled up on the ground, having already cursed Hanzhu's ancestors eighteen generations over a hundred times in his heart. This woman was so heartless, she hadn't even come out to order others to deal with Ji Mo.
He himself was foolish, obediently following orders, only to become a discarded pawn, destined for a miserable end.
Seeing Ximen Cang taken down with one punch and Ximen Yaoqing captured alive, the others, feeling like rabbits mourning the fox, suddenly became united in their hatred, revealing killing intent and preparing to attack Ji Mo and the Chi family.
"Halt, you insignificant wretches! How dare you lay hands on my uncle!"
A young master shouted, leading his men to bravely block the path between Ji Mo and Madam Chi.
Everyone had clearly heard the conversation between Madam Chi and Ji Mo just now. Ji Mo was not the Chi family's son-in-law, but Madam Chi's brother.
Since this was the case, Ji Mo was now the Chi family's maternal uncle.
These were all suitors of Chi Qingying. Seizing this opportunity to show off, they also intended to establish a connection with Ji Mo.
"Protect our maternal uncle!"
More people reacted and joined in.
"Whoever dares to touch my maternal uncle, I will fight them to the death."
Some younger individuals called out differently, likely admirers of Xia Wan'er.
Upon hearing this, Xia Wan'er's small face turned ashen, and she stomped her feet in anger.
"Vermin, as long as I am here, I will not allow any of you to harm even a single hair on my nephew's head."
Amidst the clamor, an old lecherous man declared righteously, his affection clearly directed towards Madam Chi.
Instantly, Madam Chi blushed and covered her face.
