Covering the Sky: Fishing for the Supreme Bone, making Ji Ziyue drool!

"That makes sense. Your qi and blood seem to have become even stronger. But you still need to be careful. The Demon Emperor's cultivation is unfathomable, and it might just be one of his backup plans."

"Well, I'll pay attention."

Lin Chen nodded.

Some unscrupulous cultivators will possess the bodies of exceptionally talented geniuses.

Or perhaps they could be manipulated and turned into clones or puppets.

However, based on his understanding of the Azure Emperor, such a brilliant and talented person would probably disdain doing such a thing.

Even if we take a step back and imagine we were actually targeted by a great emperor...

Lin Chen didn't seem to have the ability to resist either.

Instead, we should focus more on how to become stronger.

all will be good!

Those powerful individuals who had previously made their move, but were not from the Holy Lord's lineage, also flew over at this moment.

"Meet the Holy Lord!"

"Ha, in your eyes, do you still consider me the Holy Lord?"

The Holy Lord of the Ji family snorted coldly.

These old things, weighing 140 or 139 jin, are all rebellious.

They were only spared because they didn't do anything that would endanger the interests of the Ji family; otherwise, they would have been thrown into the dungeon long ago.

Upon seeing the Holy Lord of the Ji family in a fit of rage, these people, regardless of their inner thoughts, all appeared subservient and obsequious.

Clearly, the slap he delivered to Ji Yanyang last time greatly enhanced the prestige of the Ji family's Holy Master.

In the past, I didn't intend to argue with them, but after so many incidents like this, even the Holy Lord of the Ji family isn't made of clay.

“Holy Lord, as you know, several of our clan’s Supreme Elders are on the verge of death. These are the pillars of our Ji family. We were so eager to save them that we decided to capture the Demon Emperor’s Holy Heart first…”

"Then they chose to attack the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart precisely when none of the Ji family experts were around?"

"Holy Lord, please don't misunderstand. It was just now that a blue lotus appeared in the northeastern sky, which caused the Demon Emperor's Holy Heart to stir, and we noticed it."

"Is that right?"

The Holy Lord of the Ji family remained skeptical of these people's claims.

But to be fair, the other party didn't make any major mistakes, so it's obviously inappropriate to use this as an excuse to make a fuss.

"Holy Lord, now that we have captured the Demon Emperor's Holy Heart, could you lend us a few drops of the Demon Emperor's essence blood to prolong the lives of our clan's Supreme Elders?"

The Holy Lord of the Ji family frowned slightly.

Of the several elders mentioned by these people, only one belonged to his lineage and was nearing the end of his lifespan.

But after all, they are all members of the Ji family, and blood is thicker than water. Although the Holy Lord of the Ji family is domineering, he is not an unreasonable person.

"Chen'er, what do you think?"

The Holy Lord of the Ji family looked at Lin Chen, as if asking a question.

After all, the Azure Emperor's Heart is now inside Lin Chen's body, and it was because of him that he calmed down.

Of course, his opinion should have been asked.

"The Demon Emperor's Holy Heart is sentient. It entered my body only because my blood and energy are strong and my physical body is powerful, so I can use it to nourish it. It is quite beneficial to me, but if I try to force out the Demon Emperor's essence blood, I'm afraid something will go wrong."

Lin Chen said.

"Then we'll force out the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart, and use formations and ultimate weapons to suppress it!"

“That’s right. Anyone who dares to trespass into the Ji family, even the Demon Emperor Saint Heart, will not return alive.”

Good guy.

You guys are really bold to say that!

Lin Chen smiled bitterly.

Other emperors are one thing, but the Azure Emperor is still alive, and they dare to use imperial formations and imperial weapons to suppress his heart.

The consequences...

The Cai family exclaimed that they were experts!

Seeing that Lin Chen was still shaking his head, some people became unhappy.

"In my opinion, isn't someone trying to embezzle the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart and just making up various excuses?"

"The great figures in our clan are nearing the end of their lives. Now that the Demon Emperor's Holy Heart has appeared, it is an opportunity to extend their lives."

"Lin Chen, do you intend to harm a prominent figure in my Ji family for your own sake?!"

A group of people wore expressions of righteous indignation.

Unable to seize the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart, they now stand on the moral high ground, pointing fingers at Lin Chen.

Among the crowd was Ji Haiyue's father, Ji Yanyang.

His son, Ji Haiyue, was released from the Ministry of Justice just a few days ago.

Although his various bribes reduced his punishment considerably.

But he was still tortured to the point of being almost unrecognizable as human; how could he survive?

After entering the Ministry of Justice, being able to come out alive was already a stroke of good luck amidst misfortune.

With both old and new grudges combined, Ji Yanyang harbored a deep-seated hatred for Lin Chen.

They devoured its flesh, drank its blood, and pulled out its tendons.

If it weren't for the protection of the Holy Lord of the Ji family, he would have long ago crushed this little beast to dust and avenged his son.

"Lin Chen, the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart belongs to my Ji family. How dare you, a junior, line your own pockets? Hand over the Demon Emperor's essence blood to prolong the lives of the Supreme Elders, or you will not escape the punishment of the Ministry of Justice!"

Chapter 178 Suppressed by a Single Palm! Ji Yanyang was stunned!

Ji Yanyang strode confidently, looking down at Lin Chen with a mocking gaze in his eyes.

He finally got his chance.

Today, Lin Chen must hand over the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart or the Demon Emperor's Essence Blood, no matter what.

However, the next moment, a black handprint covered the sky and sent him flying backward, coughing up blood.

Ji Yanyang was completely stunned!

I go!

Such a familiar scene!

Has the Holy Lord of the Ji family made another move?

Immediately, a torrent of anger erupted from Ji Yanyang's heart.

"I, Ji Yanyang, have worked diligently and conscientiously, devoting myself solely to the Ji family and seeking a way to prolong the lives of the elders. It's one thing for you, Holy Lord, not to lend a hand, but to actually harm people. This is blatant favoritism and corruption, and I will definitely go to the ancestors to demand an explanation!"

Ji Yanyang cursed loudly.

This time, he has the power to extend the lives of the Ji family's powerful members.

Even a holy ruler should not be insulted like this!

But soon, Ji Yanyang noticed that the Holy Master of the Ji family was looking at him with a strange expression.

"Ji Yanyang, you have slandered the Holy Lord. Do you know what crime you have committed?"

"Slander? Wasn't it you who attacked me just now?"

"I was standing here without moving, why would I attack you?"

"How could this be... Could it be Ji Wendao? Or Ji Wenfa?"

"it's me."

Lin Chen spoke calmly.

Ji Yanyang looked at him, his face full of disbelief.

"You? How is that possible? With your abilities!"

"Since you don't believe me, let's try again."

Say it.

A pitch-black hand materialized in the void.

Void Handprint!

This time, Ji Yanyang saw clearly that it was indeed Lin Chen who made the move.

But what on earth is this mighty divine power?

His divine sense sensed it slightly, and it sent chills down his spine, as if the sky had collapsed.
