I was imprisoned by the Empress at the beginning, and I was secretly invincible

Ancient Holy Realm, East Tibet Dao Domain.

Shenliu City.

This is a very famous ancient city in the East Tibet Dao Domain. It is said that hundreds of thousands of years ago, a divine willow successfully proved its way here, so people later renamed this city Shenliu City.

Shenliu City is so large that it is beyond imagination. It covers an area of ​​more than ten thousand miles, and there are countless people coming and going every day.

The city is also magnificent, with jade buildings, laurel palaces, busy traffic, and bustling people. There is a prosperous scene everywhere.

In the center of this ancient city, there are more sacred mountains standing, like swords piercing the clouds, and there are waterfalls falling, like nine-day Milky Way falling into the mortal world.

Looking around, you can see the rosy clouds and divine light everywhere. It is extremely mysterious, just like the legendary fairyland.

From time to time, powerful saints appear here, practicing their magical powers or riding cranes. It can be said that there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Even the aura revealed in their gestures is enough to make people tremble with fear.

At this moment, Ji Yuanwu, who was walking among them, couldn't help but feel trembling with fear.

Although it was not the first time he came here, he was always nervous every time he came here.

With his cultivation of the third turn of half saint, he was nothing here. If it weren't for his surname Ji, he wouldn't even be qualified to step into this place.

That's right, this is the clan land of the Ji family.

Even the entire Shenliu City now belongs to the Ji family.

This Ji family is not the other Ji family. It was founded by the Ji ancestor who founded the Great Zhou Dynasty thousands of years ago.

Compared with the Ji family of the Great Zhou, this seems to be the real Ji family.

After thousands of years of development, the Ji family is extremely powerful. Even in the Dongzang Daoyu where there are many powerful people, it is a giant overlord, which is comparable to those ancient forces that have been passed down for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years.

Like the Daqing Dynasty that Ji Yuanwu is in charge of now, it is even more powerful than the Great Zhou Dynasty in terms of territory and strength.

But in fact, in the Dongzang Daoyu, it is just a corner of the land, just a subsidiary force under the Ji family.

It is not even a particularly important subsidiary force, otherwise it would not be handed over to a lower world clan member like Ji Yuanwu.

If Ji Yuanwu was not also responsible for taking care of the Qianyuan small world where the Great Zhou Dynasty is located and collecting the power of luck, his position in the huge Ji family would be insignificant.

However, the power of luck is indeed precious. In order not to affect the gathering of luck in the dark, people in the upper world generally do not easily intervene.

For example, it is like the fish in the fish pond. In order to ensure its survival, human intervention is not common.

In addition, Ji Yuanwu was born in the "ancestral land" of the Ji family, which makes him seem a little special.

However, no matter how special he is, he is only a third-turn half-saint after all.

In such a world where the strong are respected, the law of the jungle where the strong prey on the weak is more vividly interpreted and filled in every corner of life. Without corresponding strength, no matter what identity, it is difficult to be respected.

It is precisely for this reason that Ji Yuanwu is extremely unwilling and values ​​his daughter Ji Luoyao so much.

"Ji Yuanwu, please see the ancestor!"

Coming to the bottom of the highest sacred mountain, Ji Yuanwu took a deep breath, then knelt down directly, and shouted loudly.

"Come up!"

After a moment, an indifferent voice sounded.

At the same time, the gate of the temple slowly opened, and a long bridge of rosy clouds appeared, just falling at the feet of Ji Yuanwu.

Seeing such extraordinary means, Ji Yuanwu's eyes were full of excitement.

He did not dare to delay and immediately walked up quickly.

After a while, he came to the inside of the temple and met the Ji ancestor.

Although the Ji ancestor was thousands of years old, he still looked middle-aged from the outside, and he was burly and strong, like a warrior.

However, compared with ordinary warriors, he gave people the feeling that he was many times stronger. Even if he did not deliberately reveal his aura, he still made people tremble, as if facing a terrifying beast, and he might die at any time.

And his eyes were like stars, flashing with bright light, making it impossible for people to look directly at him.

Even the long hair that fell casually seemed to be filled with endless life breath.

Every breath made the world shake and people's hearts sway.

Ji Yuanwu was shocked.

In addition to the first time he came here, this was the second time he saw the Ji ancestor.

Compared to the bewilderment he felt when they first met, this time he dared to truly take a look at the Ji clan ancestor in front of him.

OnlyIt felt like he was facing the whole world, and he had become an ant without any resistance.

Just a wisp of breath from the other party was enough to suppress him easily.

"I wonder what realm the ancestor has reached now?"

Although Ji Yuanwu was curious, he naturally dared not ask such a question.

He knelt down again, and then greeted respectfully: "Unworthy descendant Ji Yuanwu, pay homage to the ancestor!"

"Hmm!"

The ancestor of the Ji family looked indifferent and just responded lightly.

Although Ji Yuanwu was his descendant, thousands of years had passed, and there were countless generations in between, so naturally there could be no feelings.

What's more, he had so many descendants. Looking around, those Ji clan members were basically his descendants.

If everyone had to have feelings, how could he have enough feelings?

"This is the power of destiny collected from the Qianyuan small world. I hope the ancestor will check it."

While speaking, Ji Yuanwu took out the jade seal from his sleeve.

The ancestor of the Ji family raised his hand and the jade seal fell into his hand.

Then he waved again, and a mysterious power was extracted from the jade seal and turned into a mysterious light ball.

"It seems to be missing a little?"

He raised his head and asked calmly.

Facing his calm gaze, Ji Yuanwu seemed to be hit hard, and his heart was immediately startled. He hurriedly explained: "There was a little accident this time, and I had to extract a little power of destiny from it to protect myself, so it was like this..."

"I don't ask the reason, I only look at the result. The family has its own rules and the clan has its own rules. Since you are not doing your job well, I will deduct a hundred years of salary as a punishment!"

"A hundred years of salary?"

Ji Yuanwu was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe.

Although he could extract a lot of money from the management of the Daqing Dynasty on behalf of the clan, the real income came from the clan's salary.

On the one hand, the Ji clan was now strong and wealthy, so the clan members were naturally treated well.

On the other hand, he now held two "important positions" and his salary was even more generous.

This was also the main reason why he was able to improve his cultivation to the third-turn half-saint in just over a decade.

Now that his salary of a hundred years was deducted all at once, it was undoubtedly cutting his flesh.

But the problem was that the ancestor spoke in person, and it was obviously not a discussion with him.

Whether he accepted it or not, this result could not be changed.

Ji Yuanwu could only honestly accept the punishment. He took a deep breath and then spoke again: "I came here this time for another thing, and I want to report to the ancestor..."
