Ji Fengyan’s words took everyone in the hall by surprise. What she said was true, as the terminator’s true power came from himself and not his mount.

This reply completely refuted Ji Qiu’s earlier statements.

Ji Qiu frowned slightly. He had not expected Ji Fengyan to answer so smoothly and with such faultless reasoning.

“Does that mean that you have full confidence in the World-Termination-Armour?” Ji Qiu asked.

Ji Fengyan shrugged.

She had full confidence in herself.

Ji He who had been looking on suddenly spoke. “Older Brother, Little Nines word does make some sense. After all, the World-Termination-Armour is an original and rare item. The mount does not matter much, but if Older Brother dislikes this little thing, we can always rear another, more powerful one. Considering the power of the Ji family, finding a mount will be a simple affair.”

Ji Qiu nodded slightly to show his agreement with Ji He.

The atmosphere in the hall changed subtly. Ji He and Ji Qiu seemed to be singing the same tune. Although they spoke sternly to Ji Fengyan, they actually seemed worried about her.

However…

Ji Qiu lifted his head and looked at Ji Fengyan. He blandly said, “Although that is true, to truly use the World-Termination-Armour requires a period of familiarity. Ji Fengyan, you may now hand the World-Termination-Armour’s seal over to Mubai. I have already contacted the people at the Ming Workshop and I can bring you over later to have the World-Termination-Armour’s seal transferred.”

The Ming Workshop specialized in working on the World-Termination-Armour. Once the World-Termination-Armour’s seal was in place, only the Ming Workshop could remove it. So whether the World-Termination-Armour was being transferred or needed further maintenance, it all had to be done at the Ming Workshop.

Ji Qiu spoke dismissively, as if it was a natural thing for Ji Fengyan to hand the World-Termination-Armour to Ji Mubai.

When Ji Fengyan heard this, she finally understood that Ji Qiu and Ji He had not been talking about their concerns for her safety on the battlefield, but their concerns for Ji Mubai!

Ji Fengyan suddenly laughed. This family was truly thick-skinned!

Ji Fengyan’s laughter drew Ji Qiu’s attention, and he frowned unhappily.

Ji Qingshang, who was standing by the side, made haste to comment. “What are you laughing at, Ji Fengyan? Didn’t you hear what Oldest Uncle said? Why don’t you hurry over to the Ming Workshop and have the World-Termination-Armour’s seal removed? How much longer were you intending to monopolize it?” She had had enough of Ji Fengyan’s arrogant demeanor in Ji City. Did Ji Fengyan really think that the World-Termination-Armour was hers? What a joke!

“There is no need to say anymore, Qingshang.” Ji Qiu raised his hand slightly and interrupted Ji Qingshang’s aggressive words. Then he looked at Ji Fengyan and spoke, his voice vigorous and completely matter of fact.

“Ji Fengyan would not have forgotten what she said earlier, that the World-Termination-Armour was only temporarily given to her by the Ji family. Surely she would not keep it for herself?”

“That’s right…” Ji Qingshang nodded obediently, but a mocking smile tugged at her lips and she looked at Ji Fengyan contemptuously.

Ji Fengyan looked at Ji Qingshang, then at Ji Qiu, and shook her head. She could not help laughing despite herself. She raised her eyes slightly to meet Ji Qiu’s steady gaze, her red lips moving slightly as she said, “Oldest Uncle, I am very sorry but I am not going to hand the World-Termination-Armour to Ji Mubai!”

“What did you say?” Ji Qiu’s eyebrows immediately contracted. He had not expected Ji Fengyan to say that.

Even Ji He, who had been smilingly looking on, was stunned by Ji Fengyan’s words.
