Chapter 151: The Box Left Behind by Ji's Ancestors

"When the invasion of the Heavenly Demons from beyond this realm took place, the Nine Provinces were on the brink of demise. Your Uncle Jiang and I jointly combated the Heavenly Demons. At that time, he had just entered the Mahayana Realm and was not as invincible as he is now. Hence, he needed the assistance of a strong ally like me, your father."

The disoriented demons were detained by your father for a span of twenty breaths' time, which afforded your Uncle Jiang the opportunity to launch his offense."
