"Is he dead?"
Ji Yuan thought he had succeeded in Foundation Establishnt, but unexpectedly, he was dead.
"Yes."
Du Wanyi sighed faintly, "Actually, his strength was also very strong, one of the best among those at the Peak of Qi Refining in our Water Dragon Sect."
"Did he also kill a Foundation Establishnt cultivator?"
"No."
Du Wanyi rolled her eyes, "Fourth Brother, do you think Foundation Establishnt is like sothing that’s everywhere on the streets, sothing anyone can kill at will? For us to have soone like Feng Yichen in the Water Dragon Sect is quite good already. It’s said that the Spirit Control Sect to the north has never produced any Qi Cultivation cultivator capable of killing a Foundation Establishnt cultivator."
"But Liu Cangke managed to escape from the hands of a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, so he had so strength."
"Indeed."
Ji Yuan nodded slightly. For soone in the Qi Cultivation Stage, being able to escape from the hands of a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, no matter the ans, spoke volus of his strength.
"And Fourth Brother, have you noticed that those who made a na for themselves in the Foundation Establishnt Stage are basically like us with Pseudo Spirit Roots."
"Because those with good Spirit Roots directly achieve Foundation Establishnt and beco Foundation Establishnt cultivators, unlike us who can’t break through in a short ti and can only dominate in the Qi Cultivation Stage."
Ji Yuan naturally noticed this long ago.
The strong ones in the Qi Cultivation Stage all have Pseudo Spirit Roots.
But what’s the use of being strong in the Qi Cultivation Stage?
The Foundation Establishnt Stage crushes with its higher realm.
Du Wanyi laughed, her body shaking with amusent, "I thought you didn’t know, Fourth Brother. Hearing this would make you happy."
Ji Yuan was helpless and waited for her to finish laughing, then asked, "Who killed him?"
Du Wanyi’s cheerful expression faded, and she said seriously:
"It was Jian Zong from dicine King Valley, a Qi Cultivation cultivator who has also killed a Foundation Establishnt cultivator."
"He is considered the foremost Qi Cultivation cultivator in dicine King Valley."
"Now that he’s dead, according to the rules of our Water Dragon Sect Mutual Aid Association, we should also avenge him, right?"
"Who has the strength to avenge soone capable of killing a Foundation Establishnt cultivator?"
Du Wanyi shook her head to herself as she spoke, "Moreover, it was an ambush and assassination. We suspect that dicine King Valley is already planning for the upcoming Nine Nether Cave Heaven."
"Killing Liu Cangke is akin to a decapitation strike, eliminating our strong Qi Cultivation cultivators from Water Dragon Sect, so they can face less pressure upon entering the Nine Nether Cave Heaven."
"That is possible."
Ji Yuan couldn’t help but nod repeatedly.
The speculation made a lot of sense and logic; it was most likely the truth of the matter.
"Our Water Dragon Sect isn’t stupid; we will definitely take reciprocal actions, arranging people to assassinate them too."
After talking about this matter, Ji Yuan asked further, and Du Wanyi, recalling for a mont, rembered another matter.
"Fang Jie went through Liu Yuan Immortal’s connections and entered the Law Enforcent Hall. He even contacted , asking if I had any intention of joining a division."
"Oh?"
This matter was hinted at by Fang Jie when joining the Water Dragon Sect, so Ji Yuan wasn’t surprised upon hearing it.
"Fourth Brother, you might not know, but among all the Foundation Establishnt cultivators, that Liu Yuan Immortal’s strength is among the strongest."
"That must be true. When we joined the Water Dragon Sect, Fang Jie only ntioned Liu Yuan Immortal’s na, which made the other two Foundation Establishnt cultivators look at him differently... So, what do you think?"
Ji Yuan asked.
"I wanted to ask you as well... Joining a division has its benefits, but you definitely won’t have as much freedom in the future, and you’ll owe Fang Jie a huge favor."
Du Wanyi said this with a frown, clearly quite conflicted over this matter.
"Hmm..."
Ji Yuan gently rubbed a Jade Pendant hanging from his waist, pondering, "Did he say which division he could arrange for you?"
"If the division he’s placing you in is good, then owing this favor isn’t a big deal, but if the division isn’t great, then forget about it."
"He did."
Du Wanyi quickly nodded, "He said Thousand chanism Hall, dicine Hall, and Water Hall could all be arranged, but which one specifically would depend on where there was a need."
Ji Yuan was familiar with both the Thousand chanism Hall and dicine Hall.
The Water Hall is the external division of the Water Dragon Sect. The myriad markets and cities under its jurisdiction all require cultivators, and the division responsible for these matters is the Water Hall.
In the current structure of the Water Dragon Sect, the Water Hall is probably the largest of the various divisions.
"The Thousand chanism Hall and dicine Hall are within the sect, with basically no danger, but the corresponding benefits are also smaller. If you go to the Water Hall... Let be straightforward with you."
"Fourth Brother, you an to say that in the Water Hall, outside, there are many advantages to gain, right?"
"Yes."
Ji Yuan candidly said, "There are benefits, but there are also dangers, at least more so than inside the sect. It’s up to you, Second Sister, how you want to decide."
Since Du Wanyi asked in this way, it was needless to say she was planning to join a division but simply didn’t know how to choose at the mont.
"Alright, I’ll think it over again."
Du Wanyi hoped Ji Yuan would make the decision for her, but she also knew with Ji Yuan’s character, he would never do it... The fact that Ji Yuan said so much was already considerate of their relationship.
If it were soone else, her Fourth Brother would surely say...
"I think they’re all good."
After discussing this, Ji Yuan asked about other things, but Du Wanyi said there was nothing else.
He then returned to his own Cave Mansion.
Sitting in his living room, Ji Yuan recalled the things Du Wanyi ntioned and couldn’t fall asleep.
As it stands now, the struggle for resources between Immortal Sects is quite intense.
It’s even far more brutal than the fights between cultivators.
It’s simply a struggle of ten thousand boats, each vying to be the first.
