"Ji Wuxiang?"
Hearing Luzhu mention this name, Chen Changan raised his eyebrows slightly, and finally recalled the sporadic memories about this person in his mind.
While drinking the fragrant tea in the cup, memories come flooding back to me.
The Ji family can be regarded as a famous family in the Eastern Region of Xuanhuang World.
There have been several powerful people in the spiritual realm and even the Tao realm in our ancestors, who were famous for a while.
A hundred years ago, several demon emperors joined forces to launch a demon disaster and attack the Eastern Region. The ancestor of the Ji family led his people to the Demon Pass in the northern desert to fight to the death.
The Demon Emperor has unparalleled magical powers and leads millions of demon clans to engulf everything like a tide, and the human race is retreating steadily.
Seeing that the Demon Suppression Pass is about to be breached, a mysterious man in black appears at the critical moment to turn the tide and decide the outcome.
The man in black is at the pinnacle of the Taoist Realm. His cultivation is as high as the sky. He single-handedly killed several monster emperors and blocked millions of monsters from outside the Demon Suppression Pass, preventing them from entering even an inch to protect the peace of all human beings.
Although the demonic disaster was suppressed, the Ji family suffered heavy casualties in that battle, and the whereabouts of the ancestors of the Ji family are also unknown. The overall strength of the family is very low.
Among the younger generation of the Ji family, all have mediocre qualifications, and no one has the upper hand.
Over the past hundred years, the Ji family's ancestral business has been gradually annexed and eroded by other aristocratic families, and it may be destroyed at any time.
But this fatal crisis was eliminated invisible by Ji Fengyan's strong rise.
Three years ago, Ji Fengyan, the eldest daughter of the Ji family, entered the spiritual realm, triggering horrific visions. She joined the Taishang Jiutian Palace, the holy land of immortal cultivation, and became a core disciple. She opened a dojo and was personally blessed by the supreme leader.
With his back against a big tree, he could enjoy the shade. As long as Ji Fengyan stayed in Taishang Jiutian Palace for one day, the Ji family would not be destroyed.
When one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.
Along with Chen Changan, hundreds of guards and thousands of slaves were selected and stationed in the Phoenix Mountains.
The eldest daughter, Ji Fengyan, devoted herself to seeking the truth. In order to manage the spiritual field, raise spiritual animals and other miscellaneous things, the Ji family set up three general managers, each performing their own duties.
Luzhu is the eldest lady's personal maid. She is dedicated to serving the eldest lady and does not directly manage the affairs of the Ji family. However, even the chief manager is polite to her.
Above the three stewards and below the eldest lady of the Ji family, there is another person, the young master of the Ji family - Ji Wuxiang.
Chen Changan has lived in Ji's family for more than ten years, but Chen Changan doesn't know Ji Wuxiang very well.
In addition to his low status as a low-class slave, what's more important is that Ji Wuxiang is not in the Phoenix Mountains most of the time, making him particularly mysterious.
"If you want me to be careful about Ji Wuxiang, is it possible that... this Mo Sheng is Ji Wuxiang's man?"
Chen Changan is certainly not stupid. He and Ji Wuxiang had very different identities and had never seen each other before. The root of this naturally lies in the third manager, Mo Sheng.
"Yes, it can even be said that Mo Sheng has been taking care of hundreds of acres of medicinal fields in the Phoenix Mountains for Ji Wuxiang."
Lu Zhu put down the cup in her hand, looked at Chen Changan solemnly, and spoke again:
"I believe you have also heard that the first step of spiritual practice is about the land of Dharma and wealth. Needless to say, this 'Dharma' is impossible to practice without the practice method. And this 'wealth' is second only to the practice method and is second to the true monks. To put it simply, 'wealth' does not only refer to what ordinary people call silver, but also refers to the spiritual herbs, elixirs and other spiritual treasures needed by practitioners."
Chen Changan nodded. In the final analysis, the original sin lay in the nearly 100 acres of medicinal fields.
Sure enough, where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, and rivers and lakes are places where the interests of all parties are involved and compete.
This is true for ordinary people, and even more true for practitioners.
"Not only the spiritual fields managed by the third manager, but also the spiritual beasts raised by the second manager and the escort team managed by the first manager, most of the benefits are handed over to young master Ji Wuxiang."
A man with a short tongue and a soft hand with others. After accepting Chen Changan's spiritual herb, Lvzhu naturally told everything he knew:
"If you seize the position of Third Manager, you will threaten Ji Wuxiang's core interests, so he will definitely cause trouble for you."
Chen Changan was a little puzzled: "Don't the eldest lady know these things?"
"The eldest lady has great powers. She knows everything that happens in the Phoenix Mountains."
"Then since you know, why..."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Changan thought of the answer.
For the eldest lady, the harder the people below fight and the more resources are concentrated, the more likely it is that the Ji family will grow stronger.
Anyway, no one dares to touch the spiritual herbs, elixirs, and minerals that the eldest lady needs. In this case, wouldn't it be better to pool the extra cultivation resources to create a proud son of heaven?
You must know that absolute fairness is the greatest injustice.
In other words, if he, Chen Changan, can defeat Ji Wuxiang, he will be able to prove that he is more valuable, and the eldest lady Ji Fengyan will probably turn a blind eye.
But if you can't fight...
"Where is this Ji Wuxiang?"
"Unlike us, Ji Wuxiang is not only a disciple of the Ji family, but also an outer disciple of Taishang Jiutian Palace!"
Wow——
As soon as these words came out, Chen Changan finally felt a little moved.
The Ji family has hundreds of guards and thousands of servants. Only the eldest lady Ji Fengyan may be worshiped in the Holy Land Taishang Jiutian Palace.
Unexpectedly, Ji Wuxiang also became an outer disciple of Taishang Jiutian Palace.
Although there is a huge difference in status between the outer disciples and the core disciples, the difference is actually a matter of clouds and mud.
But the outer disciples are still disciples after all, and their strength and talent are at least above those of the Grand Manager.
Moreover, the other party was not a slave, but a true descendant of the Ji family. He had the same surname and the same origin as the eldest lady.
Needless to say, if he faced Ji Wuxiang now, Chen Changan would have no chance of winning.
"I estimate that Ji Wuxiang will return to the Phoenix Mountains within ten days."
Speaking of this, Lu Zhuer also looked at Chen Changan with a worried look.
"Ten days?"
Chen Changan, who originally had a sense of urgency, completely relaxed after hearing the word "ten days":
"That's okay!"
If I can't find a way to neutralize the medicinal properties, I might be burned to ashes by the young lady in five days.
Compared to the eldest lady, Ji Wuxiang is nothing.
"..."
Lu Zhuer was confused. Why was she suddenly not worried?
Could it be that Chen Changan also has something to rely on? ?
After drinking all the tea in the cup, Lu Zhuer stood up and left.
Everyone has secrets, and so does she.
After sending Lu Zhuer away, Chen Changan called Xu Fei and Li Zaiyang.
These two people were just promoted by him to help him manage the medicine field and handle trivial matters.
After experiencing so much, Chen Changan understands that only strength is true in this world, and only strength is the only one.
After mastering the Heaven-defying Technique of Taotie Devouring Heaven, Chen Changan naturally wanted to use all means to become stronger as quickly as possible.
As long as the strength is sufficient, not to mention Ji Wuxiang, even the eldest lady Ji Fengyan has to bow down! !
"It has been spread that you killed Mo Sheng in front of the eldest lady. Thank you to the third manager for helping me and the two of you avenge us!"
As soon as Xu Fei and Li Zaiyang came in, they fell to their knees with a thud, their eyes were blood red, and their eyes were full of hot tears falling down.
"This little one's life will belong to the third manager from now on!"
"Me too!"
"..."
Looking at the two people kneeling in front of him with tears of gratitude, Chen Changan waved his hand and motioned for them to get up.
Xu Fei's parents were forced to death by Mo Sheng, and Li Zaiyang was even worse. After being played by Mo Sheng and Ma An, his own sister bought into a brothel, and her life and death are still uncertain.
"As long as you two do your best, I will take back the grievances you have suffered!"
Poor people naturally know how difficult it is for poor people. Although Chen Changan wanted to help Li Zaiyang redeem his sister, the servants of the Ji family were not allowed to leave the Phoenix Mountains without the eldest lady's warrant.
Not to mention, Chen Changan only had five days.
Five days later, it's not even clear whether his own life can be saved. Where can he find the heart to help the world? !
The most important thing right now is to find the medicinal properties that neutralize the Water Yun White Lotus and Earth Core Fire Lotus Seeds.
But for this matter, Chen Changan couldn't think of any good solution for a while.
Therefore, the most important thing at the moment is to do everything possible to practice breaking through, keep making breakthroughs, and make breakthroughs again!
"Xu Fei, you take people to ransack the homes of Mo Sheng and others, and move all the valuables and treasures into my house."
Thinking of Ma An and others who had fainted, Chen Changan looked at Li Zaiyang again:
"It's been an hour. Have Ma An and others picked the frost-leaf bamboo to present to the eldest lady?"
"Third Manager, Ma... Ma An and others are still unconscious."
"Coma? Won't you splash water on them to wake them up?"
Chen Changan frowned. He understood very well the principle of eradicating evil. Ever since Ma An and others attacked him, he was destined to die:
"After waking them up, immediately drive them to the cliff of the back mountain to collect medicine. If they refuse to go down, just kick them down!"
"Okay, let's do it now, little one!"
Xu Fei and Li Zaiyang looked at each other, their eyes full of uncontrollable excitement. They had long wanted to kill Ma An and others, but they had been worried about causing trouble to Chen Changan, so they had endured until now.
You must know that Ma An and others pretended to be powerful and often bullied them. Thinking of his insulted sister, Li Zaiyang became even more murderous.
Now that they are following a master who is not afraid of anything, why would they care about their lives? !
After both of them left, Chen Changan stood up and walked into the warehouse where spiritual herbs and elixirs were dried.
Next, it's time to enjoy the fruits of victory.
"Beacon deciduous flower!"
"Nine-day greeting fruit!"
"Red Dragon Grass!"
"Five-spice saliva!"
"And...the Millennium Ginseng King!"
...
Looking at the more than 120 precious spiritual herbs and elixirs in front of him, Chen Changan breathed heavily.
Since the Taotie Devouring Heaven Technique can forcibly swallow the energy and blood in the bodies of monsters and monks, what about these spiritual herbs and elixirs that contain majestic vitality? !
The black gluttonous heart in his body began to beat faster. Chen Changan waved his hand violently, and the black air flow rose into the sky, wrapping around a dozen spiritual grasses in front of him, and began to swallow them forcefully.
After the body absorbed the eighteen spiritual herbs, the internal organs in the body roared and several strange divine flowers bloomed.
The invisible shackles were broken again, and the momentum soared into the sky.
With the Taotie Devouring Heaven Technique, forcibly plundering vitality and energy, practicing to break through the realm is as simple as eating and drinking.
The fourth level of the mortal realm: the internal organs are completed! !
After breaking through again, Chen Changan did not hesitate at all.
As he waved his hand, a black air flow enveloped the nineteenth medicinal plant...
