Ninth In the World

Wei Shanshan started crying when she saw the man on the ground, who was barely recognizable as a person, and said, “Yes, he is Sect Master Ji…”

Di Jiu took out three elixir pills, threw one of them into Ji Yuanang’s mouth, and covered him with a long robe. He gave the two remaining elixir pills to Wei Shanshan and Xiang Tianyi while saying, “Take the pill first.”

Ji Yuanang swallowed the elixir pill unconsciously, while Wei Shanshan and Xiang Tianyi didn’t doubt Di Jiu at all and took the elixir pills without any hesitation.

In merely half an hour, Wei Shanshan was surprised to sense her skin rejuvenating and her life-force surging once again. Her appearance was restored and she looked just like her youthful self once again.

Xiang Tianyi was equally amazed. His arm, which had been long severed, started growing rapidly once again.

Normally, cultivators would still be much weaker than before even if they restored their lost limbs with special treasures. However, not only did Xiang Tianyi feel nothing of the sort, but his new arm also felt just as good as his other arm.

This elixir pill was definitely extraordinary.

“Thank you so much, Sect Master Di. I had lost my arm a couple hundred years ago…” Xiang Tianyi bowed before Di Jiu excitedly. He didn’t feel like he had helped Di Jiu much, but what Di Jiu had done for him would change his life.

Wei Shanshan also came over and thanked Di Jiu. She only exclaimed loudly after seeing Xiang Tianyi. “Are you Sect Master Xiang?”

She naturally knew that Xiang Tianyi was the Sect Master of the Polar Night Continent’s Galaxy Sect.

Xiang Tianyi also stared at Wei Shanshan with a surprised expression. Based on his understanding, no one in the Small Central World should recognize him. Did this woman know him?

However, he soon realized who she was and replied excitedly, “I got it! You are the inherited-teachings disciple of Tributary Lotus Peak’s Peak Master Wu… I am sorry about your master…”

Wei Shanshan had definitely arrived at this place with Di Jiu’s help. It was a pity that her master, Wu Zhenzhen, had been killed by the Qi Family.

“Sect Master Di has already wiped out the Qi Family and avenged the Galaxy Sect.” Wei Shanshan wiped her tears as she replied.

Her master had treated her like his own daughter after she’d joined the Galaxy Sect, but he hadn’t gotten to see Di Jiu wiping the Qi Family out.

Xiang Tianyi looked at Di Jiu excitedly. He had been preparing to head back to the Polar Night Continent for revenge after attaining the Void Spirit Realm this time. However, he hadn’t expected that Di Jiu would have already wiped those people out. He finally felt relieved.

“Ah…” Ji Yuanang, who was lying on the ground at the moment, suddenly yelled and opened his eyes. His skin had already recovered, and even his internal injuries were gone. It felt like he had never been trapped in the fire array prison.

Ji Yuanang quickly put on the clothing on his body and leaped up. When he saw Wei Shanshan, he asked restlessly, “Elder Wei, did you save me?”

Wei Shanshan realized that the elixir pills Di Jiu had given them were definitely top-notch treasures that couldn’t be found in the Cultivation World when she saw that even Ji Yuanang, who had been so badly injured, had recovered in such a short time. She quickly replied, “Sect Master Ji, it wasn’t me. It was the Sect Master. He is back.”

“Sect Master?” Ji Yuanang turned around and spotted Di Jiu and Xiang Tianyi.

Since he had never seen Xiang Tianyi before, it made sense that he didn’t recognize him. However, Di Jiu was the founder of the Galaxy Master Sect. Even though this was the first time he was seeing Di Jiu in real life, he had already seen countless images and recordings of him.

“Greetings, Ancestral Master. I am Galaxy Master Sect’s disciple, Ji Yuanang.” Ji Yuanang immediately kneeled down. Geng Ji was his master, and Ancestral Master Di Jiu was Geng Ji’s big brother. Furthermore, most of the cultivation techniques that he cultivated had been passed down by Di Jiu.

Di Jiu sighed and said, “You are a Sect Master after all. How did you end up like this?”

Ji Yuanang replied in a shameful tone, “I have failed my master. I didn’t discover the truth, and that actually caused…”

Ji Yuanang didn’t know what to say. Di Xizeng was part of the Di Family, and he had even personally claimed that he was Di Jiu’s nephew. What could he have done?

“Uncle Jiu, I was too rash. I thought that the Di Family’s cultivation techniques couldn’t be given to outsiders so easily. I didn’t know that this was Uncle Jiu’s idea, so I ended up doing so many things wrong.” Di Xizeng, who had been sent flying by Di Jiu, walked up to him once again before bowing and paying his respects.

Di Jiu stared at Di Xizeng coldly and said, “You’re mistaken. Firstly, although my family name is Di, I have nothing to do with the Di Family in the Small Central World. Secondly, this is the Galaxy Master Sect.”

After he said that, Di Jiu quickly added, “I want all the members of the Small Central World’s Di Family to step out.”

Soon, at least ten cultivators walked out and stood beside Di Xizeng. Even the weakest one was at the late-stage Void Spirit Realm.

“Shanshan, apart from these people, who else came to the Galaxy Master Sect back then and forced Ji Yuanang to step down as Sect Master and treated the sect as if it belonged to the Di Family?” Although Di Jiu’s voice was calm, anyone could sense the killing intent in his words.

Wei Shanshan immediately responded, “The Di Family’s family head, Di Liang, who was an expert of the True Form Realm, was also part of this. He was the one who took Sect Master Ji down.”

“Draw his portrait.” Di Jiu’s voice sounded chilling.

“Yes.” Wei Shanshan raised her hand and painted a clear shadow in the void.

Di Jiu reached out into the void, grabbed a middle-aged man out of nowhere, and dumped him onto the ground.

“Family head…” Di Xizeng yelled in fear when he saw the middle-aged man.

The Di Family’s family head was an expert at the ninth-stage True Form Realm after all. If Di Jiu had managed to capture him through the void just like that, he had to be…

He didn’t dare finish that thought.

“Who are you?” Di Liang immediately realized what was going on and turned pale as a sheet after asking that question.

He had been cultivating in seclusion when a massive Quintessential Essence hand seal had grabbed him. How powerful could this man be?

“Family head, he is Di Jiu.” Di Xizeng quickly walked up to him and spoke up.

“Ah…” Di Liang couldn’t react. ‘Didn’t Di Jiu go to the Immortal World? Why did he suddenly show up here?’ he thought.

Meanwhile, Di Jiu declared loudly, “The Small Central World’s Di Family had the guts to come to the Galaxy Master Sect and slaughter innocent people at will. They killed several elders and even imprisoned the Sect Master, Ji Yuanang, in the fire array prison for many years. I hereby declare that every single member of the Di Family that came to the Galaxy Master Sect is sentenced to death.”

Di Jiu’s cultivation level was so powerful that the entire Small Central World and the True Dominion could hear his words clearly.

Everyone was struck dumb, as they’d thought that Di Jiu was a member of the Di Family. Despite that, Di Jiu was avenging the Galaxy Master Sect, which had been taken over by the Di Family.

“Di Jiu, you can’t do this. Your family name is Di after all. You belong to the same…” Di Liang only managed to say a few words before Di Jiu’s gigantic palm print killed him.

He killed Di Xizeng and the rest too.

At that moment, even Wei Shanshan and the remaining people were dumbfounded. She had thought that Di Jiu would do no more than chase the Di Family away and punish Di Xizeng. She had never expected him to execute them so decisively.

After the Di Family’s family head, Di Xizeng, and all the disciples who had come to the Galaxy Master Sect were killed, their family dropped to the level of a second-rate family. They weren’t even as powerful as they had been once.

The Di Family hadn’t been so powerful anyway. They had only managed to become much more powerful in such a short time thanks to Di Feixue.

However, after Di Jiu did this, the Di Family’s heritage was completely destroyed once again.

Di Jiu ultimately managed to stop himself from destroying the entire Di Family. After all, it was very likely that he and Di Feixue shared the same ancestors. However, this would be the only chance given to the Di Family. If they dared to touch his sect again, he would not spare them the next time.

After getting rid of the Di Family, Di Jiu looked at Ji Yuanang and said coldly, “As the Sect Master of the Galaxy Master Sect, you are pretty useless for allowing outsiders to come in and imprison you in the fire array prison.”

“Yes. I’m willing to accept any punishment,” Ji Yuanang replied in a shaky voice. He sounded extremely terrified.

Di Jiu said flatly, “You will guard the gates of the Galaxy Master Sect for a hundred years from this day onwards. Then, you will study Dao in seclusion. You aren’t allowed to meddle with any of the sect’s affairs unless there are external threats.”

“Yes.” Ji Yuanang immediately responded.

Di Jiu nodded and declared, “I want all the Galaxy Master Sect’s disciples to listen up. Xiang Tianyi will take over as the Sect Master from this day onwards.”
