Among Ji Yuan’s three senior brothers and sisters, Senior Brother No. 1, Ran Kui, was the one he spent the least ti with.
But that didn’t an Ran Kui had the worst relationship with him. On the contrary, Ran Kui was the one who best fit Ji Yuan’s fantasies about a senior brother.
As for Senior Brother No. 2, Yun Qianzai, there’s nothing much to say.
Always acting pretentious, never serious.
As for Senior Sister No. 3, Phoenix Peach, Ji Yuan actually felt deep down that she was more like his junior sister—playful, carefree, and acting without much plan.
Only Senior Brother No. 1, Ran Kui.
Before even eting, Ji Yuan had heard many things about Ran Kui from Yun Qianzai and Phoenix Peach.
For example, when Yun Qianzai and Phoenix Peach first started with cultivation, it was Ran Kui who guided them.
Ran Kui was not as laid-back as Hua Yaoyue and was very strict with those two in terms of cultivation.
Just like when Ran Kui ca back later; if he ntioned cultivation, Phoenix Peach and Yun Qianzai had to obediently go cultivate.
In so ways, Ran Kui was already teaching in place of their master.
That’s why Yun Qianzai and Phoenix Peach respected him so much.
This point, Ji Yuan also deeply understood.
From their first eting in Lanshan City, Ran Kui diligently guided Ji Yuan on the path of cultivation without holding back because he joined later or they just t.
He had even prepared a Magical Treasure belonging to a Core Formation Cultivator as a gift for Ji Yuan before they t.
That Celestial Poison Needle is still a handy tool for Ji Yuan in fighting adversaries.
Afterward, when Ji Yuan needed to go to Mirror Lake for Sword Refining, Ran Kui arranged everything perfectly, ensuring Ji Yuan had no worries.
There were truly no words to adequately describe his care for his little junior brother.
Additionally, Ran Kui’s character made Ji Yuan even more impressed. His righteous actions and his oath to slaughter all the Demon Cultivators in the world made Ji Yuan admire him imnsely.
Without a doubt, Ran Kui couldn’t complete this task.
But even if he couldn’t finish it, he still gave it his all.
This quality made Ji Yuan deeply respect him.
But how could such a senior brother die?!
And to die in such a suffocating way at the hands of a traitor who seed like one of their own... Ji Yuan did not know when the Isle Master Qinghe beca this Thousand Faces, perhaps he always was.
But none of that mattered. What mattered was his despicable sneak attack!
Indeed, it wasn’t just Ji Yuan; even Hua Yaoyue and the others knew that Ran Kui would die in Cangluo.
But Ji Yuan thought that Ran Kui would fight desperately until his dying breath in battle, even today.
That ant fighting with these mid-stage Core Formation Demon Cultivators until his death.
Yet Ji Yuan never imagined Ran Kui would die such an undignified death!!
"Revenge, revenge, we must avenge our senior brother!"
In Ji Yuan’s mind was the scene of Ran Kui looking at him one last ti, as that Thousand Faces pierced through Ran Kui’s chest, with those iron armor gloves that looked like sharp spikes.
Thousand Faces must die.
Jiang Hong must die too!
Ji Yuan could feel his heart pounding violently in his chest, the blood in his body flowing crazily, and the veins on his forehead bulging.
He... wanted to kill!
But, at the sa ti, the last thread of rationality in Ji Yuan was frantically telling himself.
’You don’t have the strength to take revenge now; rushing up will only sacrifice your life in vain.’
’You have to run, get away first, and after you’ve achieved cultivation success, co back to avenge your senior brother.’
’Your senior brother is dead. If you also die, who will avenge you?’
Ji Yuan repeated this in his heart over and over, telling himself again and again to extinguish the fires of revenge within.
"How about it, can you still endure?"
Jiang Hong laughed mockingly at Ji Yuan, who was tightly clenching his fists, "You really can endure, planning to let soone else die instead of yourself, huh? It seems this Young Master underestimated the mindset of a Loose Cultivator like you. Oh no, I should say it’s shalessness, watching your friend die in front of you, yet remaining indifferent, tsk tsk tsk."
"Li... Daoist Chou, don’t act impulsively, this Demon Cultivator is deliberately provoking you!"
Su Huaimin’s urgent voice sounded in Ji Yuan’s mind.
Ji Yuan knew Jiang Hong was provoking him; he had even suppressed his emotions for a long ti because of this.
Coupled with Su Huaimin’s reminder, Ji Yuan finally cald down, at least... he knew what he needed to do next.
As he had reminded himself earlier, the priority now was to escape.
Staying here... even if he used all his hidden moves and managed to kill Jiang Hong, he would die as well.
"Don’t worry, Daoist Su."
Ji Yuan added, "I am at the end of my strength and probably won’t be able to get you out alive. You have to rely on yourselves."
Su Huaimin laughed freely, "That’s nonsense. Daoist Chou, you already saved us once before."
"If not for you, I would have perished at the hands of that Demon Cultivator a long ti ago, and wouldn’t be standing here talking now."
Knowing the understanding of the other party, Ji Yuan said no more and turned his full attention to Jiang Hong in front.
He took a deep breath.
"What is it? After being beaten by last ti, have you gotten smarter this ti, trying these unconventional ans before even starting? No wonder a useless loser like you can only resort to such tactics."
Ji Yuan said as he maneuvered the Splite-Space Flying Boat under him, making a turn in place while the nine flying swords around him made a circle with their tips continuously aiming at the opponent, Jiang Hong.
"By the way, Young Master Jiang, I overheard sothing and I guess it’s true."
"Oh? What is it that you want to ask your grandpa about?"
