Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7617

Chapter 7532: Those People

Ji Xuanjian didn’t put on airs, but Wan Yao and the others didn’t treat her the same way as before. After all, she was a princess, and it seemed inappropriate to continue calling her brother.

During the Ten Thousand Sects Imperial War, Ji Xuanjian was carefree and always took the initiative to address Li Tianming as a brother, and the two seemed to have a good relationship.

Moreover, Ji Xuanjian was indeed talkative, able to discuss anything and everything, sometimes leaving Li Tianming somewhat helpless.

…

Meanwhile, in the Ten Thousand Sects Imperial Tower.

Ji Ziling and Emperor Qianfeng were in a magnificent private room, looking at a huge image displaying Ji Xuanjian’s perspective.

Seeing that Li Tianming and Ji Xuanjian seemed to be interacting like friends before their identities were revealed, occasionally even putting their arms around each other, Ji Ziling frowned slightly, seemingly somewhat displeased.

“Li Tianming’s a bit pretentious. Does he really think he’s on par with the Qianfeng royal family just because he has some strength? He doesn’t even show the slightest respect for Xiaoyue,” Ji Ziling complained.

Judging from their interaction, Li Tianming didn’t treat Princess Ji Xuanjian’s status as special at all.

In contrast, Wan Yao and the others did show some respect for Ji Xuanjian.

In fact, this was the norm; Li Tianming was the real oddball!

“Xiaoyue is really too reckless. She doesn’t even know how to keep her distance,” Ji Ziling sighed after observing for a while.

In any case, Ji Xuanjian didn’t treat her like a princess, and Li Tianming didn’t respect her as one either.

In a team, everyone is on the same level; perhaps that’s Li Tianming’s thinking.

After talking to herself for a while, Ji Ziling noticed that Emperor Qianfeng beside her seemed silent, only staring at the image, so she asked,

“Father, do those people know that this altered Ji Xuanjian is Xiaoyue?”

‘Those people’ naturally referred to her original teammates.

Emperor Qianfeng’s gaze was deep, his head and body remaining still, only his lips moved as he said, “They know.”

Ji Ziling’s expression changed slightly upon hearing this. She said, “Then Li Tianming is probably in big trouble. Although those people come from high social standing, they are all petty and narrow-minded. Xiaoyue chose Li Tianming instead of them, and I’m afraid their resentment will be vented on Li Tianming.” Emperor Qianfeng, wearing

his crown, was majestic and solemn, his eyes only on Ji Xuanjian.

He did not respond, seemingly unconcerned about Li Tianming’s situation.

…

Inside the Upside-Down Tower.

After about half a month of preparation, Yin Chen suddenly spoke: “Little Li, you have an opportunity!”

“Where?” Li Tianming was overjoyed.

“I’ll lead the way,” Yin Chen said decisively.

At this moment, the members of the ‘Five Good Youths’ were almost bored, after all, they had neither encountered any enemies nor found any treasures during this time.

Of course, they had actually encountered a team, but after Yin Chen investigated, he found that the other party did not have many treasures, so Li Tianming cleverly bypassed them.

Soon, Ji Xuanjian, Wan Yao, and the others followed Li Tianming and finally arrived at an exceptionally dazzling star field under Yin Chen’s guidance.

This place was surrounded by a seven-colored halo, like two rainbows joined end to end, which also blocked much of the group’s view.

As soon as they saw this scene, Ji Xuanjian’s eyes lit up, and he pointed ahead with a little excitement, “I have a feeling there must be treasures in here!” At

this moment, Yin Chen couldn’t help but be speechless in his companion space, “Nonsense! If there were no treasures, would I have brought you guys here?”

“Great! We can finally go treasure hunting!” Huangfu Yu was also somewhat excited.

“No matter what, having some treasures in hand first, something to give us some peace of mind,” Wan Yao said, his eyes burning.

Although Li Tianming had led him here, he was communicating with Yin Chen, not sharing his vision.

Looking out, he noticed a hazy, seven-colored halo, but that was only the outermost layer of the scene.

Through the haze, Li Tianming saw dilapidated ruins, filled with broken and chaotic Dao arrays, and swirling with cosmic rays and Dao catastrophes.

“This seems to be an interstellar ruin, perhaps a city a long, long time ago,” Li Tianming deduced, frowning.

“A place that once had a large population must have plenty of treasures!” Xiang Qin couldn’t hide his excitement, but he retained a sliver of rationality, his tone slightly serious. “However, opportunities often come with risks. In a half-destroyed city, there might be traps used in past battles. These Dao arrays are extremely unstable and could collapse and explode at any moment. The power of such explosions is almost limitless, entirely dependent on the original level of the Dao arrays.”

Danger lurked everywhere!

In such a place, top geniuses and ordinary geniuses alike would be destroyed if they encountered a top-tier, broken Dao formation!

Of course, the existence of the Qianfeng Ring provided an extra layer of insurance for everyone. Barring unforeseen circumstances, it was still possible to evacuate the participants before the Dao formation obliterated their bodies.

“Scared?” Li Tianming smiled at the group behind him and slowly said, “This is our only chance. We might not be as strong as the top teams, but with a bit of luck, we might actually make history for our sect. Do you really want to let this opportunity slip by?”

These words ignited a surge of excitement in Wan Yao and the others, making them instantly energized.

“What are you talking about! I’m not here to slack off,” Huangfu Yu was the first to agree.
