Liancheng Mountain, within the Water Dragon Sect’s residence.
Ji Yuan still only inford Rou Yi about this matter, as for the Isle Master of Cloud Mist and the Master of Bamboo Shadow Island... he still couldn’t trust them.
No matter how beautiful those two elder sisters were, what of it?
Ji Yuan is not soone who judges by appearance, nor soone whose lower urges control his higher reasoning.
After all, if he were, he would not have ruthlessly destroyed the flowers deep within the Spirit Vein before.
Even soone as calm as Rou Yi, after hearing Ji Yuan’s account, reacted similarly to Liu Yuan before, sitting in a daze for quite a while, before transmitting a question:
"Junior Brother Ji, do you an that Xuan Weizi from dicine King Valley and Danxia from Joy Palace are exploiting the Spirit Vein and stealing Spirit Stones?"
Despite uttering this herself, Rou Yi still felt it was like a tall tale.
"Indeed."
Ji Yuan nodded in confirmation, "They are using this thing..."
"No, no, no, Junior Brother, you don’t need to take it out, just show it to the Sect Leader Martial Uncle when they arrive in a couple of days."
After understanding the situation, Rou Yi had no desire to take another look... well, not openly at least; privately she wouldn’t dare in case anything happens, she would be responsible.
But once Sect Leader Master Xuan Shui arrives, she will be the first to look.
"Alright."
Ji Yuan helplessly put it away without taking out the black line mass.
anwhile, he couldn’t help lanting internally... Damn, is there not an honest soul among them, all slippery and cunning, oh no, they are my comrades, let’s call them smart.
So Ji Yuan got up, sitting beside Liu Yuan, jesting, "Co, Brother Liu, let show you the thing, you can hold onto it for if you want."
"No, no, no."
Liu Yuan was startled, quickly standing up and waving repeatedly, "Brother Ji, just keep it with you, keep it with you."
Ji Yuan spread his hands, "In the end, it’s I who bears it all, sigh."
Rou Yi, after touching the Great Sword behind her for assurance, said, "We can’t be careless; it will take the sect’s Golden Core Zhenren three days to arrive. It’s been less than two days now, there’s still a day and a half remaining... we must guard against the other two parties."
Speaking of serious matters, Ji Yuan and the others stopped fooling around.
Once seated again, Liu Yuan briefly pondered, then softly asked, "Is Sister Rou Yi suggesting that Gui Zhen and Lady i Ru might be accomplices of Xuan Weizi and the others?"
"That possibility isn’t ruled out."
Rou Yi replied, "But there’s no need to worry too much, there is an Array here for protection. Worst case, we hide inside the Array. If we can delay for half a day, they will perish."
"Indeed, so even if they have accomplices, they wouldn’t be foolish enough to expose themselves now."
Ji Yuan had considered this issue while in the underground Spirit Vein, which is why he had Rou Yi spread the word about "calling for help."
Leverage.
Leverage the influence of the Golden Core Zhenren.
Regardless of whether there are accomplices of Xuan Weizi within Liancheng Mountain, leveraging influence is a prudent approach.
Rou Yi had evidently thought of this as well, and couldn’t help but glance approvingly at Ji Yuan.
In the following two days, the group from Water Dragon Sect stayed put within their residence, waiting for the Sect Leader of Golden Core Realm to arrive.
During this ti, Gui Zhen even ca by once, wanting to know what had happened beneath, but Rou Yi blocked him, rely stating that everything would be revealed once the Golden Core Zhenren arrives.
But even if Golden Core Zhenren arrives, it’s the Golden Core Zhenren of Water Dragon Sect who would co first!
This was notified a day in advance.
Next would be Joy Palace, which was relatively close, their sect’s Golden Core Zhenren should be the second to arrive; dicine King Valley is the furthest away, naturally, they would be the last.
Which ans, by the ti their sect’s Golden Core Zhenren arrives, it would be too late.
No wonder Gui Zhen was anxious.
He even shouted at the entrance of Water Dragon Sect’s residence.
However, he was chased away by Rou Yi wielding her Great Sword.
He rely dared to speak out, but Rou Yi genuinely dared to act.
Ji Yuan naturally stayed in his own courtyard, munching on Spirit Eggs, in addition to absorbing Spirit Stones... specifically those just excavated from the Spirit Vein.
These things are like a windfall, one must use them rather than waste them.
Better to quickly absorb them, converting them into one’s own power, eliminating any impact.
A day later.
While Ji Yuan was absorbing Spirit Stones in the courtyard, he suddenly noticed two streaks of light approaching rapidly in the sky, without a word, he put away the Spirit Stones in his hand, and as he stood up, those two water blue streaks of light had already reached above the Water Dragon Sect’s residence, descending straight into the residence hall.
Imdiately, Ji Yuan and others received a transmission from Master Xuan Shui in their minds.
"Quickly gather in the hall."
Being close already, Ji Yuan executed the Escape Technique "As Shadows Follow," his form flickered several tis within the residence, arriving before the hall.
"Junior Brother Ji!"
As soon as he arrived, he saw a figure dart out from inside, calling out to him joyfully.
"Brother Li."
Ji Yuan, seeing who it was, was quite surprised.
He didn’t expect Li Changhe to show up as well.
After exchanging greetings, Ji Yuan entered the hall to greet Master Xuan Shui and Li Gang, the so-called Master Duocai.
Rou Yi had already briefed Master Xuan Shui on the situation, so he knew the basics.
"Nephew, thank goodness for you."
Master Xuan Shui said earnestly.
To the side, Master Duocai appeared to be still extrely angry, but did not forget to nod towards Ji Yuan, "We will discuss later."
