He came to the Ji family this time because of Ji Ru Ri's invitation, intending to use the remaining ten or so Great Dao Fruits to exchange for the qualification to meet Miss Ji Ru Yue.
As for the reason he had conflict with the strong ones stationed there, it was because he heard about Xu Dong Sheng pursuing Ji Ru Yue, which was a rivalry between love interests.
All the Ji family young ladies had red eyes.
Ji Ru Yue, it was Ji Ru Yue again.
Why are all the good things always about Ji Ru Yue? She just looks a bit prettier and has stronger talent; are those men blind? Can't they turn around and take a look at these beautiful women?
Of course, they didn't really like Qin Chen, just a wild man from the mountains, but who wouldn't want to experience the feeling of being in the limelight?
At the same time, the fact that Qin Chen was going to duel Xu Dong Sheng, and that after defeating Xu Dong Sheng he could obtain the qualification to enter the ancestral land of the Ji family and meet Ji Ru Yue, had also been gossiped about.
This was a promise made by Ji Dao Yuan himself; as long as that wild man could defeat Xu Dong Sheng, he could enter the ancestral land and receive a baptism, which was a treatment that many Ji family's prodigies couldn't even enjoy.
Such news spread, how could it not shake the Ji family?
Xu Dong Sheng was the most top-notch prodigy the Ji family had recruited in recent years. His talent was so strong that it was not weaker than many top prodigies in the history of the Ji family.
If it were another half-step Martial God, just saying such arrogant words would naturally make them a laughing stock.
But today, that Tie Niu had shown his strength through action; he was a terrifying prodigy whose talent was not the slightest bit inferior to Xu Dong Sheng.
For a moment, the crowd was incredibly expectant; discussions about the clash between Qin Chen and Xu Dong Sheng were everywhere, creating an extraordinary sensation.
At the same time, there was a stir within the Ji family.
"I don’t agree." In an important conference room deep within the Ji family, a middle-aged man coldly spoke out, his gaze sharp as an eagle. "That kid has an unknown origin, not even his identity is clear, and my second brother is too impatient, actually promising the other party entry into the ancestral land; isn't that too reckless?"
This man wore a purple robe edged with gold, exuding a noble and elegant demeanor, but his gaze was somewhat harsh. He sat at the front of the conference room, his look severe, radiating a terrifying aura.
This was a peak mid-stage Martial God, and when he spoke, the void trembled, his words carried a power that could shock people’s hearts.
This person was the outstanding figure of the current second generation of the Ji family, Ji Dao Ling, the older brother of Ji Dao Yuan. Ji Dao Yuan and Ji Dao Ling were the two most prominent individuals in the second generation of the Ji family, both having reached the peak mid-stage of the ninth level, just one step away from the realm of giants, and were currently the most promising among the second generation of the Ji family to step into the later stage of Martial God and become leaders of the giants.
It could be said that currently, about half of the power within the Ji family was in their hands, with both sides holding their ground and competing against each other.
Both were currently among those managing the Ji family, holding certain powers of authority, acting as proxy family heads, yet neither was truly the family head.
In the Ji family, unless someone could step into the later stage of Martial God, no one could be directly granted the position of family head to lead the Ji family forward.
Currently, the true power in the Ji family lay with the ancestor, who held a high position in the Law Enforcement Hall and had a decisive voice. Besides that, there was the Elder Council, which had actual power, along with outstanding second-generation strong individuals like Ji Dao Ling and Ji Dao Yuan managing the family.
