Chapter 2126 - 2111

"I am willing to leave the Jian Family!"

"I am also willing to leave the Jian Family!"

"From now on, I am no longer a Jian Family member! I am willing to submit to the Void Sacred Land!"

...

The Jian Family members who were already restless earlier, seeing Jian Qiong unharmed, and others safe after leaving the Jian Family, more and more people rushed into the sky, seeking allegiance with the Four Great Powers.

"Jian Gu, you turtle bastard!"

"Jian Gu, you turtle bastard!"

"Jian Gu, you turtle bastard!"

...

The sound of leaving the Jian Family and the shouts of "Jian Gu, you turtle bastard" continuously echoed in the Void.

In order to survive, these former Jian Family members had thrown caution to the wind.

Once, over six thousand came to Aotian Land, but now less than five thousand remain as Jian Family members.

More than a thousand have already pledged allegiance to the four Old Ghosts above, to the four ancient great forces.

However, Ying Family Ancestor Ying Qing, although he claimed that those who pledge allegiance to his Ying Family would have their past grievances forgiven, still attracted the fewest.

After all, despite saying grievances would be forgiven, who knows what the future holds within the Ying Family? The conflicts between the Jian Family and the Ying Family have been immense over the years.

Even the current Ying Family Patriarch, Ying Teng's own son, was killed by that Evil Demon from the Jian Family.

However, there were exceptions. Despite a millennium of conflicts, some had close ties with the Ying Family, even having good relations, and became Ying Family members.

But such individuals were few and far between; out of a thousand people, less than five became members of the Ying Family, simply incomparable to those pledging loyalty to the other three powers.

...

Jian Gu and Jian Yu coldly watched the Jian Family crowd as former Jian Family disciples ascended, disassociating themselves from the Jian Family from that point onward.

"The Jian Family is the family that gave me life and raised me!" At this moment, a stern and cold voice echoed among the Jian Family crowd.

Hearing this voice, people turned to look over.

The person who spoke was actually the eldest of the Jian Family, Jian Ze!

Then everyone saw Jian Ze with a look of sorrow, speaking again: "My Jian Family has fallen to such depths today, my heart, it hurts so much!"

"Think of my Jian Family, endless ages ago, Ancestor Jian Gu founded this unparalleled family, shook the world, revered by all! But today, we Jian Family members face threats, watch others' expressions, how can my heart not hurt?"

When Jian Ze said this, people suddenly saw him lift his head abruptly, looking at the thousands in the sky!

Immediately, people felt from Jian Ze an indescribable, chilling killing intent as he took one step upwards, saying:

"If my Jian Family perishes today, how will we face the ancestors of the Jian Family in the Netherworld?"

Suddenly, an imposing aura blasted forth from Jian Ze.

"This is? The eldest is?"

Seeing Jian Ze like this, someone exclaimed in surprise.

Many were moved by Jian Ze's words and the unparalleled aura emanating from him at this moment.

Then, looking towards the eldest, Jian Ze, someone spoke again: "The eldest exudes such killing intent and aura, is he really going to fight those four to the death?"

"Looking at his aura, it seems so! The Jian Family holds such weight in the eldest's heart, yet his daughter Jian Qiong has betrayed our Jian Family, it seems the eldest is truly enraged."

"Hmm! If I were the eldest, I would be furious too! Jian Qiong has utterly disgraced the eldest."

...

Then people saw the eldest, Jian Ze, step-by-step ascend into the Void, getting closer to the crowd above. At this moment, they heard Jian Ze speak again:

"My Jian Family has existed in this world for endless ages! Every member of the Jian Family has the mission to promote and perpetuate the Jian Family for eternity!

I, Jian Ze, face the crisis of the Jian Family today, and in order to preserve the pure bloodline of the Jian Family, I am willing to bear humiliation and leave the Jian Family, I am willing to join the Lingxiao Sacred Land!"

"Hmm?"

"What?"

"What?"

...

Upon hearing Jian Ze's words, each Jian Family member and every former Jian Family member showed extreme shock.

Jian Ze had just displayed a stance of going all out against the four superpowers.

Yet unexpectedly, after saying so much, it turned out to be nonsense, merely pretense, what humiliation and burden, what preserving the pure bloodline of the Jian Family, all just excuses for his fear of death!

"Haha, hahahaha!" At this point, Lingxiao Ancestor Yuann Yao laughed, looking at Jian Ze who had approached, and said, "The elder brother of Jian Family Patriarch Jian Yu, Jian Ze, Martial Artist of the True God Second Heaven Realm! Hmm, not bad! Very good!"

Yuann Yao's old face showed a very satisfied expression.

Jian Ze clasped his hands, bowed deeply to Yuann Yao, and said: "Jian Ze pays respects to Ancestor!"

"Hmm, rise." Yuann Yao still responded with a face full of smiles.

...

"Jian Ze!" At this moment, Jian Yu coldly uttered this name.

Previously, when other Jian Family members left, Jian Yu remained indifferent.

But when it came to Jian Ze, Jian Yu could no longer remain calm, this was his elder brother, after all; they had the same blood flowing through their veins!

"For the preservation of the Jian Family's bloodline, I must also bear the humiliation!" At this moment, people heard the Second Young Master Jian Yin speaking.

And after Jian Yin spoke, ignoring any gaze, unlike Jian Ze's pretense, he said to his three children, Jian Zheng, Jian Mian, and Jian Wan:

"Let's go!"

"Father!"

"Father!"

Upon hearing Jian Yin's words, Jian Yin's eldest and second sons spoke up in shock, their voices revealing difficulty.

If they really did that, how would the world view them in the future, how would they face the world with dignity!

On the face of Jian Wan, there was a trace of sadness, but she said nothing.

For she knew, these matters were beyond her control.

At this moment, Jian Yin's tone suddenly turned cold, and he spoke to the three of them again: "I said, we're going!"

When Jian Yin said these words, the three immediately felt a cold chill sweeping over them, as if disobeying Jian Yin's words would freeze them in ice.

Without further consideration, Jian Yin moved his feet, step by step, into the sky.

"Alas!" Jian Zheng, the eldest brother, sighed and said: "Let's go!"

"Alas!" Jian Mian followed with a sigh.

Then, Jian Zheng and Jian Mian moved simultaneously, rising into the sky, following after Jian Yin.

"My... my life is without choice, from childhood to now, always like this! I, do not belong to myself." Jian Wan said these words in her heart, then her form also began to rise.

Jian Yin and his three children, like Jian Ze, stood before Lingxiao Sacred Land's Yuann Yao, clasped their fists, and said: "Paying respects to Ancestor!"
