Although the seal was small, it immediately commanded everyone’s attention. Even Ji Qiu quietly straightened up, greed lurking in his stern eyes.

Ji Fengyan used her fingertips to lightly pick up the armor seal. She lowered her eyes and glanced at the object of every Ji family member’s dreams. Then she slowly raised her head and looked at the crowd in the hall, imprinting every greedy and treacherous face in her memory.

For the sake of this seal, they would willingly abandon any scruples they had.

“Do you really want it?” Ji Fengyan lifted her eyes, a thought-provoking smile on her lips.

Ji Qiu’s eyes glittered. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Ji Mubai standing near him. The steady Ji Mubai now only had eyes for the armor seal. A flame shone in his eyes, revealing his desire for the seal.

With the World-Termination-Armour, one could have all the glory of a terminator. Everyone craved that kind of status!

Ji Fengyan was not fit to have such a wonderful thing.

“That’s right, Ji Fengyan. As long as you hand it over to us, we guarantee that the Ji family will provide for you for the rest of your life. You will be the true Ninth Mistress of the Ji family and no one will dare show you the slightest disrespect.” Ji Qiu drew a deep breath and condescendingly guaranteed Ji Fengyan’s future.

It never crossed their minds that this was merely Ji Fengyan’s due.

Except that they had forcefully deprived the original owner of the body of all she had.

The smile in Ji Fengyan’s eyes deepened. In a seemingly absent-minded manner, her thumb pad caressed the slightly protruding precious stone in the center of the seal. She opened her red lips slightly and said, “I have heard that merely having the seal is not enough to truly inherit the World-Termination-Armour. Only dripping your own blood into the World-Termination-Armour will truly make it yours. Oldest Uncle, do you think this is true?”

Ji Fengyan smilingly looked at Ji Qiu. Her smile made Ji Qiu uneasy, but he pushed the feeling aside. He was unwilling to believe that the timid Ji Fengyan had the courage to defy the Ji family’s orders.

“It’s true, only blood can be used as a seal to truly link the World-Termination-Armour with the spirit. Fengyan, you haven’t done that yet have you?” Ji Qiu looked at Ji Fengyan, his expression uncertain.

Ji Fengyan nodded with a smile.

“That’s right, Oldest Uncle, I haven’t made my mark on it yet.”

A contented smile flashed across Ji Qiu’s eyes.

“That’s good.”

Ji Fengyan smiled as she asked, “Oldest Uncle, is it true that once the seal has been marked with blood, no one can take the World-Termination-Armour away from the one who sealed it, unless he dies?”

Ji Qiu nodded. “Once the armor has been sealed with blood, it will only recognize one owner. Unless the person dies, others are unable to...”

Just as Ji Qiu was speaking, he suddenly realized that Ji Fengyan’s question was rather peculiar. His eyes suddenly widened as he looked at the Ji Fengyan’s smiling face.

“Ji Fengyan, why are you asking about this? As long as you hand over the World-Termination-Armour, this will no longer concern you.”

Ji Fengyan laughed. Her laugh was especially brilliant. Under the gaze of Ji Qiu and the others, she suddenly, fiercely swept her thumb pad across the protruding precious stone.

Hot, fresh blood immediately sank into the seal!

“Such a pity, I never thought of handing it over to anyone else!”
