Martial Master

The Ji Family’s martial arts competition for marriage was meant to find collaborators; how could they have offended a Divine Artisan before even securing a partnership?

However, Ji Tianqi's awkwardness did not last long. The Star God Palace Master stood up and said, “Vice Hall Master Qin, according to the rules of the heavenly realm, Ji Ruyue comes from the lower realm and is originally a member of the Ji Family. Since she has returned to the Ji Family, it means that her worldly ties are severed.

Even if she previously had a relationship with Vice Hall Master Qin, those ties are now in the past. Moreover, as martial artists, our first priority upon entering a family is to prioritize the family. Ji Tianqi is the head of the Ji Family, and naturally, he has the authority to decide Ji Ruyue’s fate. Although you are the Vice Hall Master of the Divine Artisan, you have no right to change the rules of our human race.”

In the heavenly realm, sects and families are undoubtedly the most important. The future of many sect and family disciples is determined by the higher-ups of their families and sects, leaving very little room for personal freedom.

This could be considered an unspoken rule among the ten thousand clans.

In the current situation of the ten thousand clans contending for supremacy, it's rare for family disciples to have a say in their own destiny.

“Haha, the Star God Palace Master is right. If any disciple under the Great Cosmic Mountain dared to act so arrogantly, I would have slapped him into submission long ago. Talking about wives and husbands using relationships from the lower realm, haha, how laughable.”

The Great Universe Mountain Lord also chuckled coldly.

Hiss.

What was happening?

Many surrounding people gasped in shock. Why did the Star God Palace and the Great Cosmic Mountain suddenly stand up for the Thunder God Sect and the Ji Family?

It wouldn't be surprising if they defended them, but this was a matter that offended the Divine Artisan. Did they not fear the anger of the Divine Artisan?

The powerful figures from various factions present were not fools. Their eyes flickered, and they immediately sensed that things were not simple.

Ji Tianyao and Ji Tianqi also narrowed their eyes, feeling secretly astonished.

The Star God Palace and the Great Cosmic Mountain were actually speaking up for them. Did they hear that correctly?

If they were trying to win favor from the Ji Family for the sake of the martial arts competition for marriage, it made sense, but doing so would certainly offend the Divine Artisan.

Was the Ji Family currently in such a favorable position that the Star God Palace and the Great Cosmic Mountain would offend the Divine Artisan just to please them?

If they had already formed a marital alliance, it would be one thing, but the martial arts competition for marriage hadn’t even begun yet.

Ji Tianyao instantly felt that something was off.

At this moment, he felt a twinge of regret. If he had known that Qin Chen's identity was so special, he wouldn't have allowed Ji Ruyue to become the saintess and offer her to the Xiao Clan.

But now it was too late; the news had already been announced, and Ji Ruyue and Ji Wuxue were being held in the Hell Mountain. No matter what happened next, he absolutely could not let the person in front of him, this Qin Chen, know.

Otherwise, things would definitely become troublesome.

Thinking of this, Ji Tianyao said solemnly, “What the Star God Palace Master and the Great Universe Mountain Lord said is reasonable. Regardless of the circumstances, Ji Ruyue’s fate should be decided by my Ji Family. As for how my Ji Family decides, I hope our friend Qin Chen will refrain from further disputes for the time being; that is a matter for later.”

In an instant, Qin Chen found himself in a situation where he was fighting alone.

A heaviness filled Qin Chen’s heart. He knew that with his current strength, if he wanted to take Ruyue away, he had to have a logical basis.

Even if it was this absurd reasoning, knowing that the other party was using him, he still had to face it since it existed.
