Chapter 1223 Xiao Yi’s Promise
Ji Hong is not a fool. Even Gongsun Jin has become Xiao Yi's puppet. Does Ji Hong have any other choice but to surrender?
Perhaps the other option is to die.
Ji Hong's eyes flashed, and he immediately floated in the void and knelt down, saying solemnly: "Ji Hong, I am willing to lead the Shura clan to surrender to Mr. Xiao!"
Xiao Yi smiled lightly and did not let Ji Hong get up immediately.
"I am very happy that Chief Ji surrendered. But if one day the Shura clan becomes rebellious, how should I deal with it?" Xiao Yi asked.
Ji Hong's eyelids trembled and he said hurriedly: "Since the Shura clan has surrendered to Mr. Xiao, they will never betray them."
Xiao Yi laughed, a little playfully: "Chief Ji, nothing in this world is absolute. Just today, didn't you betray the Ye family and submit to me?"
Ji Hong's face stiffened.
To Ye Jia, he is indeed a traitor...
Ji Hong took a deep breath and said: "The Shura clan has never truly submitted to the Ye family. They have always been loyal to the Ye family because they had no choice."
"Today, isn't your submission an act of helplessness?" Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes.
Ji Hong smiled bitterly and said: "Master Xiao, if you really can't trust Ji Hong, Ji Hong is willing to die to prove his ambition!"
Xiao Yi nodded and said: "This is a good idea."
Ji Hong's eyes twitched. Did Xiao Yi really want him to die to make his ambition clear?
Seeing Ji Hong's eyes flickering, Xiao Yi said disdainfully: "Okay, I know you are reluctant to die, and I don't really intend to let you die to prove your ambition."
Ji Hong breathed a sigh of relief.
"Get up and talk!" Xiao Yi said.
Ji Hong stood up quickly. He didn't want to kneel down and talk to others.
"I know that the people of the Shura clan, in addition to possessing the murderous and violent Shura bloodline, are also full of pride and unruliness. So I will not use the same methods to control them to control your Shura clan. Because I suppress them. Because of your nature, the true combat power of the Shura clan cannot be released." Xiao Yi said with a smile.
Ji Hong felt happy, not being controlled, that was naturally something to be happy about.
"Thank you, Young Master Xiao. I, Ji Hong, promise that I will never betray Young Master in this life. If betrayal occurs, I, Ji Hong, will be willing to accept any punishment." Ji Hong said seriously.
Xiao Yi was able to confide in him and not control him, so he was willing to serve Xiao Yi. But that's just him.
He would not say what the fate of the Shura clan would be after thousands of years. He did not want future generations of the Shura clan to be shackled just because of his words.
Xiao Yi smiled and said: "I am absolutely ruthless towards my enemies, and even more so towards betrayers. So if you rebel, you will definitely not be the only one who dies."
Ji Hong's eyes trembled again.
"As long as you do good things for me, I will also give you a promise. After I settle the other divine cities, I will officially give Dark Sky City to you and rename Dark Sky City to Shura City!" Xiao Yi said with a smile.
Ji Hong was overjoyed: "Thank you so much, sir!"
Ji Hong dreams of owning a city as the clan city of the Shura clan!
Xiao Yi waved his hand.
He doesn't need verbal thanks.
What he needs is for Ji Hong to do practical things well.
"Young... Young Master, my grandfather..." At this time, Wen Yue on the side finally couldn't help but ask.
Ji Hong was shocked. Could this little steward of Ye Mansion also have an origin?
Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes and said: "He is fine. I have cured his injuries and now he has carried out my mission."
Wen Yue breathed a sigh of relief, leaned forward and said, "Thank you, Master, for saving my grandfather's life. If Master had not taken action, my grandfather would have died."
Ji Hong couldn't help but said: "Is it possible that your grandfather is Wen Yanqing?"
Wen Yue glanced at Ji Hong and said nothing.
She only obeyed Xiao Yi's orders. What the hell was Ji Hong? She didn't bother to reply to his words.
Ji Hong was a little embarrassed.
Xiao Yi said: "Yes, Wen Yanqing is her grandfather."
Ji Hong took a deep breath.
In this way, Xiao Yi would have two powerful men at the peak of the God King next to him!
Moreover, Gongsun Jin and Wen Yanqing are not ordinary peak god kings!
Ji Hong suddenly became confident about the future destiny of the Shura clan.
If he were in the Ye God Realm, he would never dare to confront the Ye family, but now in the Ninth God Realm, without the existence of the powerful gods, his courage has become fatter.
The group returned to Dark Sky City, and Gongsun Jin returned to the city lord's mansion to recuperate and recover the consumed divine power.
Others also returned to their own homes.
The next day, Xiao Yi went to the city lord's mansion.
Under the leadership of Gongsun Jin, Xiao Yi selected among the treasury of the city lord's palace.
Now that even Dark Sky City belongs to him, he can naturally take whatever is in the treasury.
Xiao Yi has achieved his purpose of coming to Dark Sky City, and he has no intention of staying any longer.
Another day later, Xiao Yi returned to Tongxin City.
He didn't go to see Wen Yanqing and went back to the city directly.
Seeing Xiao Yi come back so soon, Du Yang couldn't help but be shocked.
"Why did you come back so soon?" Du Yang said speechlessly. He hadn't started practicing the magical materials that Xiao Yi gave him before leaving!
Xiao Yi rolled his eyes and said: "I'm surprised too. I'm back. Father-in-law, you haven't started seclusion yet. I see you, you really don't want to get hard anymore. Alas, when I think about my father-in-law's lifelong I couldn’t bring it up anymore, so I felt sorry for my mother-in-law..."
"You stupid boy, are you asking for a beating?" Du Yang suddenly became angry and chased Xiao Yi to beat him.
Xiao Yi laughed a few times, and his body disappeared in a flash, and only the voice came: "You can indulge yourself slowly, anyway, it is not my wife who is pitiful..."
"This damn boy is getting worse and worse!" Du Yang cursed loudly, then he couldn't help but look down at his waist, and said with a bitter smile: "However, this boy is right, Dantong is now The look in my eyes is getting more and more resentful..."
"Come on, go into seclusion now! If the divine fire does not advance, I will never leave seclusion!" Du Yang gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind to improve himself.
But he didn't know that the resentment in Yan Dantong's eyes was all caused by Xiao Yi asking her to pretend...
Only Yan Dantong's resentment can stimulate Du Yang to work hard. Otherwise, relying on him alone and talking nonsense seems to have no effect.
After a period of time, Xiao Yi also entered a state of seclusion.
Although he controlled some powerful puppets, he always knew that his strength was the foundation.
Xiao Yi spent three months in retreat this time.
In these three months, all the poisonous materials hidden in his divine ring were absorbed.
"It seems that I have to go to the old site of Ten Thousand Poison Mountains. Only the residual poisonous power there can make it possible for me to make breakthroughs in my cultivation. Otherwise, I can't rely solely on absorbing the poisonous power of these poisonous materials. I won't be able to improve myself for hundreds of years." Xiao Yi opened his eyes and said helplessly.
Everything about the Ten Thousand Poison Code is good, but cultivation relies too much on the power of poison.
Without poisonous resources, one cannot improve one's cultivation level.
