Martial Master

Indeed, that figure looked at Qin Chen again, and there was a hint of malice in its eyes.

"Kid, you dare to enslave even my descendants? You have quite the courage," the figure said coldly.

"This... Senior, there's a misunderstanding," Qin Chen hurriedly smiled awkwardly, but his back was already drenched in cold sweat.

"Misunderstanding? Oh, why don't you explain what misunderstanding?" The figure seemed to smile but was not really smiling.

"Well..." Qin Chen said, "Senior, it's like this. The current Ji family is very unstable..."

Qin Chen immediately explained the situation of the Ji family, "So the younger generation's enslavement is also for her own good."

"Is that so? Enslaving my descendant is for her own good?" The figure laughed, hearing a theory like this for the first time.

However, seeing Qin Chen's anxious and tense demeanor, the figure laughed again, "Haha, I was just joking with you. Don't worry, although the current Ji family is my bloodline, how it is actually does not matter to me."

There is such a saying?

Qin Chen was suspicious. Could someone really not care about their own bloodline?

"Perhaps you can't believe it, but that's the truth. Hundreds of years ago, when I last entered, my descendant from the Ji family also told me about the Ji family's current situation, but I didn't take it to heart either. My remaining power is limited, and this will be my last appearance. After this, my residual soul will disappear. For me, I hope to find a talented person to inherit everything of mine. As for how the outside world perceives the Ji family, I no longer care. Life and death are predestined, the cycle of the heavens is what it is. Whether it flourishes or perishes, it can only be determined by itself. Outsiders cannot achieve everything smoothly." The ancestor of the Ji family sighed, as if filled with emotion.

Qin Chen was stunned for a moment, then suddenly felt enlightened, and the worry on his body disappeared.

Indeed, according to Ji Wuxue's words, if he later re-entered the forbidden area, he would naturally be able to meet the ancestor of the Ji family. How could he not inform him about the situation of the outside world?

For someone like this, who only had a residual soul, perhaps finding a suitable heir was more important than caring about the Ji family's perception from the outside.

"This time, I am quite satisfied with Yue. But you, kid, also surprised me. Your cultivation isn't particularly high, but your soul power is much stronger than others of the same realm. You can inherit a bit of my teachings," the Ji family ancestor remarked.

Qin Chen was in his twenties, at the initial stage of the Nineth Level Martial God, but in the eyes of the other, it was not considered high cultivation. What he valued was Qin Chen's soul power.

"Soul power!" Qin Chen murmured to himself. For him, what he needed to improve the most now was soul power. If he could reach the state of soul separation, he would completely be free from the parasitic seed's constraints.

"Hehe, as a person from the lower realm, perhaps you don't care much about soul power. In fact, when your cultivation reaches a certain level, you will understand that while the physical body relies on support, the soul is fundamental. In the heavenly realm, only those with powerful soul power are true strong ones. Unfortunately, my soul power is still not strong enough; otherwise, I wouldn't have fallen in the lower realm."

The ancestor of the Ji family sighed.

Hearing this, Qin Chen suddenly felt a jolt. He suddenly thought of a question. Since the ancestor of the Ji family came from the heavenly realm, then his cultivation must far surpass that of the strong from the Tianwu continent. Who exactly killed him in ancient times? Who could have defeated him?

"Senior, since you come from the heavenly realm, why did you fall in this Tianwu continent?" Qin Chen couldn't help but blurt out.

The ancestor of the Ji family was momentarily stunned, seemingly lost in thought. After a long while, he sighed, "The reason for my fall is precisely because I was evading a strong enemy. Unfortunately, the other party was relentless and followed me here, to the extent that I didn't even have the chance to send a message back to my family. If you can reach the heavenly realm in the future, you must not easily reveal your connection to me, or a great disaster will befall you."
