Chapter 280 Controlling the Field
The elders of the main lineage have already seen their own future.
All the years of hard work, like an obedient wild dog, constantly jumping upwards, all that he had done, turned to ashes at this moment.
My life was ruined by Ji Mo's hands.
This is an open conspiracy, a revenge at the end of the season.
It was the beginning of the destruction of the Ji family.
Or maybe it was Ji Qingning's earlier preparation.
He didn't believe that such a method could be used at the end of the season.
However, losing to Ji Qingning didn't seem like such a big defeat.
If you couldn't win the battle back then, you can't win with your wits after death.
He is worthy of being the strongest person in the Ji family's history.
Defeated unjustly.
Compared to the elders of the main line who took the initiative, the shadows who failed to take the initiative seemed to be better off.
Looking at the current situation, there is no possibility of invitation, so there is only one option left, which is to kill Ji Mo according to the order left by the fourth elder.
But there are so many people here, and the shadows represent the branches, it is impossible to do this in broad daylight. Ji Mo was so rampant in mocking both the main branch and the branch. Such arrogant behavior actually gave him a glimmer of hope.
It was because of his determination and courage that everyone here saw the discord between them, which led to the main and branch branches not daring to carry out the assassination immediately. If Ji Mo suddenly died, the reputation of the Ji family would be really ruined.
It can even be said that not only can they not kill Ji Mo, but they need to protect him. At this point in time, what Ji Mo did, and then his death, even if it was not done by the Ji family, others would assume it was the Ji family. After all, at this moment, Ji Mo's humiliation was so rampant that no one could tolerate it. He would have to take the blame if he didn't want to.
But if he returns like this, doing nothing and bringing shame to the branch, will the Fourth Elder really still need him?
Thinking of that withered old face, I have dedicated my whole life to that person. Even if the Fourth Elder does not blame me, do I really have the face to live on?
Ever since he was taken home by the Fourth Elder when he was wandering the streets many years ago, he has never blamed himself. Even if he has done nothing, he is still willing to trust himself. Could he really let him down like this?
Shadow let out a long sigh, his eyes became calm, and he stared at Ji Mo with slightly narrowed pupils.
He waved and spoke to Ji Mo.
"Baishui, come here for a moment. I have something to talk to you about."
Since Ji Yun is a member of the branch, no matter what is done, it would be inappropriate. Then, as Ji Yun's follower, Bai Shui can be used as a tool. The Fourth Elder really values his branches and leaves, so the embellishments under the branches and leaves don't matter. It doesn't matter if some are discarded. Perhaps, they have been raised until now just for this kind of thing. He looked at Bai Shui with a hint of pity, as if he saw his future self.
"As a tool, if it can accomplish the mission of the Four Elders, then no matter how much it consumes, it is worth it."
"what?"
Bai Shui, who was beside Ji Mo, was stunned. She looked at Ji Yun beside her, and Ji Yun stared back at her. She seemed to have thought of something, and her usual gentleness gradually disappeared. Her face became gloomy, but she couldn't say anything.
Finally, she closed her eyes, stopped looking, nodded slightly, and said in a hoarse voice: "Elder Liu is calling you."
Bai Shui, who was unable to react, subconsciously looked at Ji Mo, only to see that the other's dark pupils became even deeper, like the boundless ocean, breathtaking, but the expression on his face remained unchanged, still so relaxed.
Bai Shui, who didn't get a response, could only scratch his head in confusion and walked towards Elder Liu.
After walking to a certain distance, a shadow emanated from the Sixth Elder's body, wrapping Bai Shui in it. The main elder's gaze also followed it, and his dull expression became a little more lively, as if he felt the changes through the shadow.
After a moment, the shadow dissipated, and Baishui walked towards Ji Mo again. Her eyes were completely different from before. The doubts she once had were replaced by fear, and there was a hint of loneliness and sadness in her frightened eyes.
The Sixth Elder raised his lips to a slight smile, as if he had already made up his mind.
Bai Shui came to Ji Mo's side with a more apologetic look on his face.
Everyone watched this pantomime in silence. Elder Liu changed the situation on the scene with just one move. No one knew what he and Baishui had communicated that led to the current change.
Everyone's eyes were on the protagonist in the center of the pantomime, before the Sixth Elder in the distance could speak.
Ji Mo activated the [Fire Cloud] with lightning speed, and clouds like flames emanated from the surroundings. The elder of the main vein reacted in time and stretched out his palm to grab the cloud. Unfortunately, facing Ji Mo's attack, his reaction was still a little slow. As soon as his palm touched the cloud, he was blown away by the sudden explosion. The intensity of the explosion was not strong, and it only left a blood mark on the palm of the main vein elder's hand. Abandoning the power of [Fire Induction], he used everything as a springboard to escape from the predicament. The moment he was blown away, Ji Mo hugged Bai Shui, who had not yet reacted, in his arms. [Smiling] appeared from his palm and clamped it on Bai Shui's throat. The sharp blade passed through the fair neck, leaving a blood mark.
Ji Yun on the side seemed to have anticipated this. The moment Ji Mo made his move, he quickly moved closer to Elder Liu and successfully avoided Ji Mo's attack.
The sudden change left everyone confused, and what was even more unexpected was that the sudden attack at the end of the season even caused the elders of the main line to suffer losses.
Before one wave subsided, another wave arose. The Sixth Elder, who was a little slow to react, had his body blown to pieces at the moment of the explosion, and was like a real shadow approaching the end of the season.
Ji Mo had obviously already thought about what to do. Looking at the Sixth Elder's actions, he immediately activated [Losing from the insufficient to serve the sufficient], gathered the spiritual energy in his body into [Ling Yuan], and broke away from Elder Liu's lock at a speed far exceeding the initial stage of the second transformation. At the moment of escape, he still had strength left, so he activated the spiritual energy and forcibly condensed it into a [Red Flame Spear] to attack the place where he had just stood.
Ji Mo knew that there would only be one chance like this. This time, he was able to break the grasp of the elders of the main vein and the blockade of the six elders by relying on [Suffering from the insufficient to serve the surplus], forcibly raising his realm and forcibly breaking away. He also relied on their lack of information about him and their misjudgment of his own strength to do so. There was only one chance like this and he must not fail.
As long as he could escape this time, all the remaining initiative would belong to him.
Seeing Ji Mo escape right under their noses, both the main elder and the Liu elder were surprised.
Then the surprise disappeared, replaced by the anger that this boy must not be allowed to live.
Forcibly raising the realm is not without price. The pin on Ji Mo's chest is like a broken mirror, with cracks all over it, and it is only a little bit away from breaking. The forced activation of Ji Mo has also consumed half of the spiritual energy in his body.
But fortunately the situation was under control.
