Yan Yuezong, Yan Yueli sleeps in the palace.
Ji Beichen looked at Yan Yueli's peaceful sleeping face and walked out of the room quietly. He raised his eyes and met Yan Wugui's gloomy face. He knew that what happened today could not be hidden no matter what.
"Tell me about it, I want to hear what you have to say." Yan Wugui sneered and put down the tea cup in his hand. He had been drinking tea in the main hall outside the room, one cup after another, and it took half an hour until Ji Beichen came out.
At this time, Yan Wugui's mood has reached freezing point. It can be said that at this time, if he is angered, he can do anything. Disciples of the Yan Yue Sect know this very well. Once they see the sneering sect leader, even Wei Yousi doesn't dare to come over and bother him.
"What? Let me tell you for you?" The smile on Yan Wugui's face became more and more vicious. If Yan Yueli hadn't been in the room, he would have beat the boy until he was bruised and swollen, and he would have calmed down before asking. Clear the reason.
Yan Wugui's principle in doing things has always been to think twice before acting. As the leader of a sect, every order he gives and every judgment he makes affects the lives of more than a thousand people in the sect, which makes him have to Withstand all the pressure and move forward with a heavy load.
But Yan Wugui is also a normal person, and he also has emotions and weaknesses. Yan Yueli's affairs have always been excluded from calmness, because Yan Yueli is his bottom line and his life.
It's not that Ji Beichen didn't speak, it was that he didn't know how to speak. He was so deeply guilty that he couldn't lift his head in front of Yan Wugui, but this matter still had to be resolved, and he didn't want to evade responsibility.
Ji Beichen raised his head slightly, looked at Yan Wugui with cold eyebrows, and with a sudden heart, he bowed and said, "Senior Yan, I... I'm sorry for you, it was me who failed to protect her... ..
But don't worry, Mo Chengfeng has been killed by me. As for the two Mo Shadow Sect disciples, I think the senior knows how to deal with them. "
"Of course I don't need you to teach me how to do things." Yan Wugui's words were cold and merciless. Although Ji Beichen was not responsible for this matter, it was because of him, so he still needs to apologize.
With a "pop", Ji Beichen knelt down on his knees, a man kneeling to the sky and his parents. Yan Wugui didn't react for a moment because of Ji Beichen's move.
"What are you doing? Could it be that by kneeling there, Li'er's injury could be alleviated?" Yan Wugui stood up with a puff of his sleeves, venting his resentment with righteous indignation.
Ji Beichen pressed his head down and clenched his fists tightly. His guilt was self-evident, which made Yan Wugui feel a little regretful. The anger in his heart subsided a little, and he comforted him: "I can't blame you for this, there's no need to be like this... "
Ji Beichen's body stiffened and he lowered his head, as if he was about to kneel down.
Yan Wugui didn't know what to do when he saw that Ji Beichen refused to accept the offer, and most of the resentment in his heart disappeared. However, Ji Beichen is Ji Yijun's son after all. Now he is kneeling in front of him and cannot get up. If others saw what he looked like, they would think he was bullying others.
"Get up and speak. If Senior Ji knows, how do you want me to explain..." Yan Wugui looked helpless and could only bring out Ji Beichen's father, Ji Yijun, to persuade him.
"Senior Yan..." Ji Beichen raised his head, his eyes filled with guilt and helplessness, which made Yan Wugui feel a little distressed.
He was too harsh. The young man in front of him was only in his early twenties. He had suffered many hardships and had no one to protect him. Only Ji Beichen could understand the feeling. Why should he take out his resentment on Ji Beichen?
Yan Wugui leaned over to help Ji Beichen up, dusted off his clothes, and whispered: "Just call me the sect leader. I really can't bear the word 'senior'."
Although Ji Beichen stood up and sat down, he still couldn't calm down. His mind was filled with Yan Yueli's tears and the sadness in his eyes that couldn't go away. There was only one solution for the present - to get married to Li'er.
"Please, Master Yan, marry Li'er to me as my wife!" Ji Beichen stood up again and was about to kneel down when Yan Wugui grabbed his arm.
Yan Wugui looked directly into Ji Beichen's eyes. Ji Beichen did not dodge and asked Yan Wugui again: "Please grant me, Sect Master Yan!"
Yan Wugui saw the sincerity in his eyes, but it was too impulsive for Ji Beichen to bring up the matter at this time, so he repeatedly confirmed: "Do you really still want to marry her?"
"What did Sect Leader Yan say? If Li'er really has something, this junior would not frown upon marrying her. Besides, that beast didn't hurt her... No, I mean... .I......"
Ji Beichen was so excited that he could not speak coherently. When he thought of the scene at that time, his eyes began to turn red.
Yan Wugui couldn't help but be moved when he saw her. It was rare in this world to see such a person who valued friendship and loyalty. However, Yan Yueli was his daughter and the palace master of the Yan Yue Sect. It was impossible to marry an outsider.
He patted Ji Beichen's shoulder and said in a deep voice: "It seems that you can't do it if I ask you to leave Li'er. But I still have the same request. How about joining our Yanyue Sect?"
Ji Beichen did not hesitate, and had already made up his mind to protect Yan Yueli for the rest of his life, even if he was asked to marry him.
He immediately bowed and held his hands in his hands, and said sternly: "This junior is willing to follow the sect master's wishes."
Yan Wugui frowned slightly, he didn't expect Ji Beichen's attitude to be so resolute. It must not have been spur of the moment, but there is no turning back, and it is not as simple as it seems.
If Ji Beichen regrets one day, what will be hurt is his daughter's heart. Thinking of this, he continues to ask: "Do you know the consequences of joining my Yanyue Sect? You were a disciple of the Cangxu Sect, how will others see you?"
Ji Beichen nodded slightly. He had thought clearly about getting married in Canglanhai, and he had also considered what Yan Wugui said.
Ever since he was betrayed by Lu Aotian and fell off the cliff, and became a traitor of the Cangxu Sect inexplicably, he had lost count of how many times he had been looked down upon and spurned by.
At first he would defend and deny it, but along the way he has already seen clearly that the truest thing is to remain true to your original intention. Whether you are good or bad in the eyes of others is no longer that important.
A gust of breeze blew into the hall. Ji Beichen looked up at the bright moon in the sky and suddenly said: "I, Ji Beichen, am not a saint. I have the Tao in my heart. I don't care about others, as long as I have a clear conscience. Don't worry, I will use my own life in the future to Protect her!"
Yan Wugui looked surprised. He didn't expect that this kid Ji Beichen could be so open-minded at such a young age. He couldn't help but feel happy and said, "Your forthright words today really impressed me."
Ji Beichen hurriedly waved his hands. He couldn't stand the praise of Sect Leader Yan, and said with shame: "I was stupid before. If I could have come to the world earlier and understood the truth, I wouldn't have fallen into Lu Aotian's trick and not know it at all."
"It's not too late to know now. There is no such thing as modesty here. Good things should be praised." Yan Wugui's words were a complete recognition of Ji Beichen.
He is a person who protects his shortcomings. Since Ji Beichen is his son-in-law, he will love the whole house and protect him. Naturally, he will not be stingy with his praise.
However, he suddenly remembered an urgent matter. Compared with getting married, the most important thing right now was Ji Beichen's body.
"Xiao Chen, we will discuss the entrance matter later, so you don't have to worry about your marriage. Come closer and see if you recognize this scroll?"
Yan Wugui called Ji Beichen over, and then took out a scroll from the storage ring. The simple and old appearance made it look like an old object from a long time ago.
"Is this what the Mo Shadow Sect wants to snatch?" Ji Beichen frowned. He couldn't figure out what it was that made Mo Chengfeng risk his life?
"This is exactly what Li'er said Cangming gave to her to help you with your cultivation." Yan Wugui nodded and unfolded the scroll and spread it out in front of Ji Beichen.
"Li'er..." Ji Beichen choked and couldn't speak, and his eyes were red again. It turned out that Li'er was forced to be involved in the whirlpool of greed because of him.
Yan Wugui sighed heavily and put away the scroll in his hand. It turned out that Ji Beichen really didn't know about the scroll. He had wrongly blamed Ji Beichen before.
When he first heard Yan Yueli talk about this, he thought Ji Beichen knew about the existence of the scroll and would put such a valuable thing on Yan Yueli, putting her in danger. At that time, he wanted to put Ji Beichen on the fire.
Ever since his precious daughter fell in love with Ji Beichen, she has never let up. She is always in trouble. Any father would probably not approve of this "trouble-making" son-in-law.
But just now he had recognized Ji Beichen, so naturally he would not win Ji Beichen's heart anymore, so he comforted him: "Don't think too much, no one can stay out of the current situation. You must remember what you promised me, and use your life to protect him in the future." She’s thoughtful.”
Ji Beichen wiped his face with his sleeves and nodded seriously. He would definitely remember his words and protect Yan Yueli's safety with his life.
Yan Wugui opened the scroll again. The scroll was three palms long and two palms wide. The material looked like ordinary silk cloth, but a closer look revealed that the silk cloth was actually woven with gold thread.
The text on it was not written with pen and ink, but was made of gold thread. There were six characters written on it: "The Secret Book of Heaven".
Ji Beichen looked at the obscure words on it and couldn't understand them for a while. Then he looked at the workmanship of the scroll and felt something awkward: "This thing looks..."
He looked at Yan Wugui, but he didn't know how to say the words. The two looked at each other and smiled, and Yan Wugui smiled tacitly: "It doesn't look like something from the world of cultivation, does it?"
"Yes." Ji Beichen nodded in agreement. This was what he was thinking. It turned out that Yan Wugui had discovered it a long time ago.
Seeing that Ji Beichen also agreed, Yan Wugui boldly stated his conjecture truthfully: "This scroll should have been rubbed by someone. According to my guess, the secret realm of the Heavenly Book should only reveal the content of the "Human Scroll". "
Because many things in the world of cultivation have spiritual power, even the secrets of exercises or sword techniques are mostly not made using things from the mortal world.
Instead, cultivators use true energy and spiritual power to transform words or pictures into another thing, and this thing can be anything, whether it is a person or an object, or even some kind of space.
Yan Wugui had just obtained this scroll and had not yet had time to check it. He immediately walked to the desk, put the scroll down on the table and looked at it carefully.
Ji Beichen also walked over. The two studied for a while and felt that Yan Wugui's guess was the most reasonable.
Yan Wugui rolled up the scroll and did not hand it to Ji Beichen immediately. Instead, he persuaded: "This scroll was copied from memory by someone who entered the secret realm of the Book of Heaven. There is no way to know who it is. The content is I don’t know if it’s true or not…”
Yan Wugui was skeptical about this scroll. He felt that cultivating the "Book of Heaven and Human Scroll" needed long-term consideration.
But Ji Beichen didn't think so. He trusted Yan Yueli's judgment and the Cang clan: "I trust Senior Cangming."
