Ah yes, yes, yes.
Ah yes, yes, yes.
I had little experience and weak abilities, everything depended on the esteed lords.
When there were tasks, they were given to the people below, and the credit was also given to them.
Su Li just muddled through, and slowly, even fewer people paid attention to him.
After about ten days, while Su Li was reviewing a docunt, he asked a subordinate.
"This place..."
"Sir, this was annotated by Lord Ji in the past, we... are also unsure of its aning."
"Is that so..." Su Li nodded, not making things difficult for the anxious subordinate, "How is Lord Ji's injury recovering recently, do you know?"
"Sir, I heard he can already move about freely."
"Oh, that's good, do you know where Lord Ji's residence is now?"
"I do."
"Well, take to visit Lord Ji. Recently, I have indeed discovered many issues.
Since Lord Ji's injuries have mostly healed, it's ti to address so unresolved issues.
Besides, I should have visited long ago.
I am still inexperienced, and my abilities are far inferior to Lord Ji's.
When visiting, I also hope to seek so guidance from Lord Ji if possible."
Su Li carried many docunts, led by his subordinate, and arrived at Ji Bochang's residence.
As a forr Shadow Envoy of the Shadow Departnt, even with the opportunity to retire, he couldn't possibly reside outside the Imperial City.
Arriving at the Ji Mansion, they handed over a visiting card, and soon a Sect Heir ushered them in.
Seeing Ji Bochang again, although he moved as usual, his appearance was at least twenty years older than when Su Li saw him last year.
Such an appearance in a Cultivator was a sign of severe injury.
Su Li didn't hurry to ask other matters, he simply engaged in normal pleasantries, then handled so previously unresolved issues, asking for advice on so matters in the process.
After seeking advice, Su Li then asked a question.
"I am inexperienced and weak in abilities, occupying my current position with a heart full of anxiety, fearing to disappoint the Holy One.
I wonder if I might often visit in the future and ask Lord Ji for guidance."
Su Li had said this much, even in the capacity of the current Shadow Envoy.
What more could Ji Bochang say?
As it was not a significant matter, and Su Li had shown him enough respect, he naturally wouldn't refuse.
The first visit ended, and a few days later, Su Li brought so gifts to visit again.
After seven consecutive visits, Su Li visited once more.
"Teacher, I have co to disturb you again."
"Do co, but next ti, don't bring anything, just co in." Ji Bochang cheerfully waved his hand, acknowledging the title of teacher.
Having stepped down, finding a peaceful end, and being called teacher by a humble and eager-to-learn current Shadow Envoy, what more could he ask for?
After the routine consultation, Su Li looked around.
"I wonder if Teacher has a secret chamber here?"
"Mm?" Ji Bochang's gaze sharpened, then he slowly nodded, "Follow ."
Entering the secret chamber, Su Li took out a jade bottle.
"Teacher, this contains fifty drops of sweet rain, although diluted, it should greatly assist you."
"This..." Ji Bochang was surprised.
"Teacher, you have contributed to the Shadow Departnt for many years, witnessed much darkness, and inevitably have Devil Thoughts growing.
I believe, if you could dispel the Devil Thoughts and restore your health, there's a chance you could advance further."
Saying this, Su Li also took out a Jade Scroll.
"This I obtained from the Duke Mansion, the Almsgiving Ceremony, Almsgiving Spell, and Almsgiving Handprint.
Teacher should not give up, trying is never wrong."
Ji Bochang shook his head with a bitter smile; he thought Su Li had so secret matter to discuss.
Unexpectedly, it was this.
And fifty drops of sweet rain indeed was quite significant.
Ji Bochang wanted to return the jade bottle, but seeing Su Li's eyes and thinking of his situation, he hesitated and nodded.
"Alright, then I'll accept it shalessly."
"Then I'll take leave and accompany Teacher to Almsgiving Town."
After leaving the Ji Mansion, Su Li felt quite complicated.
Having visited several tis, he had confird many things, but he had yet to present the evidence and clues.
Not presenting them, testing Ji Bochang's reaction, he had basically confird that Ji Bochang was unaware of those matters.
Soone intended for Ji Bochang to be the scapegoat.
A scapegoat that satisfied everyone and seed reasonable.
Because those framing Ji Bochang didn't know one thing.
Ji Bochang's cultivated Snow lting Secret Technique indeed could silently break formations and leave the sa marks on the broken door left by Yu Ziqing.
However, three years ago, before Ji Bochang's failed advancent, there had already been a mishap.
At that ti, Ji Bochang's Snow lting Secret Technique could no longer be used, and using it again would lt his own hands first.
This matter Ji Bochang had never disclosed to anyone prior.
A few days later, Su Li took leave and accompanied Ji Bochang to Almsgiving Town.
Beside the empty Abyssal Rift, there ca newcors.
Su Li helped Ji Bochang set up the magic platform, letting Ji Bochang perform the Almsgiving himself, having inford him of all the key points.
As the Almsgiving began with the addition of sweet rain, countless hungry ghosts crawled out from the Abyss.
A wisp of black mist flew out from Ji Bochang's body, falling into the hands of those hungry ghosts.
