Chapter 184 He is just outside the gate
An hour later.
Ji Wubo, who was no longer human, was left with only one breath. If one didn’t look closely, they would have thought he was already dead.
“Clang!”
“Brother Su Lang, wuwu…”
Ji Ruxue dropped the long sword in her hand and then threw herself into Su Lang’s arms, crying loudly.
“It’s alright, it’s over, be good.”
Su Lang gently patted Ji Ruxue’s back, comforting her softly.
“Wuwu…”
“Brother Su Lang, I was so vicious just now, will you dislike me?”
Ji Ruxue raised her head, her tear-filled eyes full of worry.
“Of course not!”
“You look so cute when you’re fierce, I love it!”
Su Lang said with a smile, comforting her, “Besides, when you seek revenge, you should vent it completely. Without hatred and resentment, your pure and kind heart won’t be polluted!”
“Oh, so that’s how it is.”
Ji Ruxue blinked her cute big eyes and nodded in a dazed manner.
“Mhm, mhm.”
“Only when your heart is at ease can you maintain your true nature.”
Su Lang tapped Ji Ruxue’s smooth forehead, “So we must thoroughly exact this revenge!”
Immediately, both of their gazes fell upon the dying Ji Wubo.
If Su Lang hadn’t used a pill to keep Ji Wubo alive, he would have already died by now.
“He’s suffered enough. Should we just kill him directly?”
Ji Ruxue shrank into Su Lang’s embrace, finding it a bit hard to believe that she could torment a living person to such an extent.
“No, we won’t kill Ji Wubo for now.”
“Next, I’ll send a gift to the Ji family first.”
Su Lang curved his lips into a smile, and a clone materialized, carrying the half-dead Ji Wubo away from the underground building.
At the same time.
In the core area of Eastern City, at the Ji family mansion, in a certain reception room.
The two Martial Commanders who had come from Zihua Tower had been waiting for a long time.
However, although they were anxious, they dared not show the slightest impatience on their faces.
Just then.
An old man, radiating an air of authority without needing to be angry, walked in from outside the door with his hands behind his back.
“We greet Lord Ji Ge!”
The two Martial Commanders quickly stood up from their chairs and bowed respectfully.
“Speak, what urgent matter is it that cannot be reported by others, and requires me to personally come from Juewu Mountain?”
Ji Ge’s voice was very indifferent, so indifferent that it sent shivers down one’s spine.
“Gulp…”
One Martial Commander swallowed with difficulty, cupped his fists, and said, “Lord Ji Ge, Lord Ji Hong and Young Master Ji Wubo…”
“Ji Hong and Wubo?”
Ji Ge’s expression turned cold, “What happened to them!?”
“Lord Ji Ge… they are probably in grave danger!”
The other Martial Commander took a deep breath, mustered his courage, and said through gritted teeth.
“What!? In grave danger!?”
“Do you know what you’re saying?”
Ji Ge’s expression changed drastically, his old eyes instantly widened, “My brother Ji Hong is an Intermediate Martial King. Who in this Eastern City can kill him, huh!?
You two are so audacious, daring to come to my Ji family and spout nonsense. Do you not wish to live!?”
“Lord Ji Ge! We wouldn’t dare to lie!”
One Martial Commander said in horror, “It was at the Zihua Main Building; many people saw it.
Young Master Ji Wubo had a conflict with a white-robed masked man and suffered a loss, then Lord Ji Hong came out.
But that white-robed masked man was also a Martial King, and we were afraid of being caught in the crossfire, so we temporarily left.
When we returned to the Zihua Main Building, we found it empty!
The ground was covered in Lord Ji Hong’s fresh blood, and there was a large amount of ashes emitting Lord Ji Hong’s aura, suspected to be cremated remains!”
“Yes, Lord Ji Hong!”
“Lord Ji Hong did not bring Young Master Ji Wubo back, nor has any news come.”
The other Martial Commander fell to his knees with a thud, “Combining what we saw at the scene, they are probably really…”
“No!!”
“This is impossible, you must have seen wrong!”
Ji Ge, his eyes bloodshot and filled with shock and anger, interrupted the Martial Commander’s speech.
In fact, by this point, he had more or less started to believe the words of these two Martial Commanders.
Because he knew that these two Martial Commanders would absolutely not dare to risk their lives to play tricks on him!
However, he truly found it difficult to accept the matter of his brother Ji Hong and son Ji Wubo being in grave danger!
From the bottom of his heart, he resisted believing such a thing!
“Ji… Lord Ji Ge…”
A Martial Commander opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to say something else.
“Stop talking! It can’t be true!”
Ji Ge roared, his face red and veins bulging, “Get out, all of you, or I’ll kill you!”
But just then.
A Martial Commander, his face full of terror, suddenly rushed in from outside!
“Patriarch!”
“Su Lang has appeared! He’s right outside the main gate! He’s escorting the dying Young Master!”
