Chapter 2096 - 2081: The Whereabouts of the Divine Circle

Ying Teng's face turned incredibly gloomy, looking at the grey-robed elder from the Jian Family, he coldly spat out: "For the sake of Elder Gai, everything will be discussed after the Martial Arts battle!"

"Hmm!" Upon hearing Ying Teng's words, Elder Gai nodded.

Then he said to Ying Teng, "Then step back!"

Ying Teng did not retreat and said again to Elder Gai, "Return my Ying Family's Divine Artifact to me!"

After speaking, Ying Teng's gaze seemed to pierce through Jian Yu and then focused on Shi Feng behind Jian Yu.

"No way!" Before anyone else could speak, Shi Feng resolutely refused.

As he spoke those words, Shi Feng moved from behind Jian Yu to the side, revealing himself and looking at Ying Teng.

Those three Divine Artifacts were his trophies; how could he just hand them over?

"You!" Seeing this young man reveal himself and speak to him in such a tone, Ying Teng's gloomy face became even darker.

At this moment, Elder Gai said again, "These three True Gods can be considered as compensation for your Ying Family's unjust accusation against him. As Jian Yu said earlier, if any of your Ying Family's younger generation were under the Palm of Divine Blaze from your Ying Family's Great Elder, they would have perished."

"If this lad hadn't stolen our Ying Family's Divine Artifact, Ying Yan wouldn't have punished him!" Ying Teng said.

Elder Gai was indeed powerful, but at this moment Ying Teng had to reason with the Jian Family to retrieve his family's Divine Artifact.

If he had justice on his side, the Jian Family elder couldn't do anything to him in front of the large audience.

Then, Elder Gai spoke again, slowly: "In that matter, it was indeed your Ying Family that misunderstood my Jian Family! My Jian Family is upright and wouldn't take your Ying Family's Divine Artifacts!

At that time, the Divine Circle was knocked away by Jian Feng. After your Ying Family's young lady was slain by Jian Feng, a space rift appeared, and your Ying Family's Divine Circle entered that rift."

"Is this true?" Ying Teng asked.

"Would this old man really make up such a lie for a few of your Ying Family's Divine Artifacts to deceive you?" Elder Gai coldly spoke, questioning Ying Teng.

"I dare not!" Ying Teng responded.

With the status of this old man, even if he would cover for his Jian Family members, he wouldn't fabricate such a lie.

And if this were true, then it seems my Ying Family was at fault first?

"So that's how it is! It turns out that the Divine Circle really wasn't taken by Jian Feng!"

"Jian Feng, truly suffered unjustly! At this rate, if it were an ordinary person, they would've been killed by the Ying Family's Great Elder!"

"Indeed! That Ying Family's Great Elder deserved to die!"

"Yes! As a judge, to act so indiscriminately, to casually kill participants, someone like Ying Yan is unfit to be a judge!"

"But how did a space rift appear? Could the Divine Circle have a spirit and fled upon its master's death, becoming an unowned artifact?"

...

From each of the platforms, bursts of discussions arose.

None of the people questioned Elder Gai's words in the least.

"Let's go!" At this moment, Ying Teng, with a livid face, sternly called out to the powerful members of the Ying Family and retracted the chaotic power in his hands.

Ying Teng knew full well that with that old thing from the Jian Family around, even with "Chaotic Power" in hand, he couldn't stir up much trouble.

Then, Ying Teng led the Ying Family crowd back to the Ying Family stand!

During the return, Ying Teng's face never looked good, and he muttered fiercely: "Jian Gu! Jian Yu! Jian Feng! That wench Jian Ran..."

As for this Jian Family, Ying Teng's hatred grew even stronger!

...

As they saw Ying Teng return, those who had earlier risen to pay respect to "Elder Gai" also returned to their seats.

Jian Yu turned around and flew back towards the Jian Family stand with Shi Feng and the Jian Family Martial Artists.

During the flight, Shi Feng retracted the fourteen True God Battle Artifacts swirling around his body.

As he neared Elder Gai, Jian Yu suddenly stopped and addressed this super strong member of the Jian Family again, "Ancestor, when did you arrive? Why didn't you notify us so we could welcome you properly?"

"Hmm?" Shi Feng's previously calm expression shifted once more upon hearing Jian Yu's words, did Jian Yu not know he had arrived?

At that time, it was this grey-robed elder who led Shi Feng to the Transmission Altar, and Shi Feng saw him fall into the altar with him. How could Jian Yu not have seen such an important figure?

"That's not right!"

Then, Shi Feng thought of another issue; at that time, this old man said it was the Family Head who wanted him to take him over.

For such a figure, how could Jian Yu have let him act as a guide?

Then, Jian Gu spoke to Jian Yu, "Actually, I have long returned to the Jian Family, just never revealed myself."

When Jian Gu said this, he turned to look at Shi Feng beside Jian Yu, a look of satisfaction on his old face, nodding, he said, "Not bad, I did not expect the Jian Family to produce such an evil demon! The Jian Family truly has successors!"

Jian Gu's words had barely fallen when the expressions of many in the Jian Family subtly changed, as if they had heard something in the Ancestor's words.

Jian Gu's words seemed to carry an implication, containing deep meaning!

In the Jian Family, Jian Gu's status was absolutely transcendental! Even Jian Yu, as the Jian Family Patriarch, had to show utmost respect to Jian Gu.

"Could the Ancestor's words imply he's considering making Shi Feng the future heir of the Jian Family?" Someone thought secretly.

"Shi Feng! I must have Wan'er deepen her relationship with him as soon as possible!" The Second Young Master Jian Yin mused.

"This Shi Feng!" Elder Jian Ze, muttered quietly, while plotting something in his mind.

"This Shi Feng, to earn such esteem from the Ancestor!" The Great Elder Jian Shan coldly thought to himself: "It won't do. I've already clashed with this lad, and he has a habit of avenging wrongs, not one to easily resolve grudges! If there's a chance, I'll..."

By the time Jian Shan thought this through, his heart had grown more ruthless.

"I must find a way to keep this evil demon in the Jian Family! With this evil demon, the Jian Family is sure to enter a more glorious era." Even the Jian Family Patriarch Jian Yu was calculating at this moment.

Then he also thought to himself, "Keep him, and marry him to Ran'er! If anyone blocks this, kill them!"

As Jian Yu silently mouthed the word "kill," images of Elder Jian Ze, Second Young Master Jian Yin, and even Jian Wan surfaced in his mind.

...

"Alright, everyone, take your seats! This round of the Martial Arts battle, I'm expecting a lot," Jian Gu said to the Jian Family members in the void.

Upon hearing Jian Gu's words, many from the Jian Family nodded with smiles.

This time, the Jian Family's great defeat of the Ying Family, to be honest, had filled each member of the Jian Family with anticipation for this Martial Arts battle!

The Jian Family had produced talents like Jian Yi and the evil demon like Jian Feng, which were indeed signs of the Jian Family's prosperity.

Following that, members of the Jian Family descended one after another, drifting down to their respective seats in the stands.

At this time, Jian Yu spoke again to Jian Gu, "Ancestor, please have the seat of honor."

As he said this, Jian Yu pointed to his seat, intending to offer the chief seat to Jian Gu.
