Martial Master

"Ru Yue, let's go and take a look ahead," Qin Chen said to Ji Ru Yue.

Ji Ru Yue nodded, and the two immediately flew towards the stone house. Because of the earlier scene, Ji Ru Yue still felt a bit shy, her cheeks reddened, and she didn't dare to make eye contact with Qin Chen.

Soon, they stopped in front of the stone house on the opposite bank of the lake.

"This stone house doesn't seem to be very old," Qin Chen marveled. Initially, he thought this stone house must be a remnant from ancient times within the Ji family's forbidden area, but now he discovered that the stone bench and stone table inside were at most only a few hundred years old, as if they had just been built not long ago.

A few hundred years is an extremely long time for ordinary people, but for top-level powerhouses, it doesn't mean much.

Upon entering the stone house, everything was very simple; the interior was quite sparse, looking as if it had been casually assembled. In the middle of the stone house, there was a jade slip on the stone table.

Qin Chen's eyes flashed as he approached the jade slip, but suddenly a restriction appeared, blocking him from advancing.

This restriction was quite formidable. If he hadn't broken through to the Nineth Level Martial God realm, it might have been difficult for him to gain any insight. However, at this moment, he had already surpassed the Nineth Level Martial God realm, and his soul power had received an astonishing boost. With just one glance, he could see that this restriction was very similar to the Life and Death Wheel restriction of the external universe and the arrangement techniques of the Dao Mountain.

"This is the handiwork of Ji Wu Xue," Qin Chen said solemnly.

The stone house wasn’t very old; could it be that Ji Wu Xue had lived here for a time back then?

"Great-grandfather," Ji Ru Yue was also slightly surprised.

"This is a bloodline restriction. Ru Yue, you come forward," Qin Chen said as he stepped aside. Although he now had enough strength to attempt to break this restriction, facing the restriction of an old friend, Qin Chen naturally wouldn't force his way through; that would be disrespectful to an old friend.

Ru Yue stepped forward and gently placed her right hand on the restriction. It flickered slightly and then vanished.

This was a type of bloodline restriction that tested the bloodline of the toucher to verify whether they were a disciple of the Ji family.

Afterward, Ji Ru Yue touched the jade slip on the table.

Buzz!

The jade slip suddenly illuminated, and then a light shadow appeared in the stone house.

It was a distinguished young man, dressed in white, tall and elegant.

"Wu Xue Ge," Qin Chen couldn't help but exclaim. This young man in white was indeed Ji Wu Xue.

"Wu Xue Ge?" Ji Ru Yue looked at Qin Chen in confusion. Qin Chen's way of addressing great-grandfather was rather strange, and she didn't even know what great-grandfather looked like, so how would Qin Chen know?

This doubt flashed briefly, and then the light shadow began to speak.

"Fated ones, since you can break my restriction, it means you are a direct descendant of Ji Wu Xue and have not been possessed by anyone, and your cultivation has also surpassed the Nineth Level Martial God."

A deep, magnetic voice slowly resonated in the stone house.

"And if you have touched my jade slip, it also indicates that I should have already passed away. If I'm not mistaken, Ji family’s current head should be Ji Wu Fa, right?"

The voice was gentle but carried a penetrating power, and it chuckled lightly.

"This place is a treasure land passed down for millions of years by my Ji family, specifically reserved for the descendants of the Ji family. I cannot allow it to fall into the hands of certain wicked individuals..." Ji Wu Xue's tone was laced with a rich killing intent.

"Perhaps your family has heard some stories about me, and perhaps the family has portrayed me as a villain who destroys the family and betrays it. But I want to say, I, Ji Wu Xue, am wholeheartedly loyal to the family and the Tian Wu continent, and the true traitor is that Ji Wu Fa..."
