When I woke up, the sun was shining brightly outside the window.
Ji Changyue tried to sit up, but she felt dizzy and her vision turned black. Especially the pain in her palms made her take a breath.
"elder sister!"
Ji Changan came in from the outside and saw Ji Changyue waking up. He immediately ran over and cried: "Sister, you finally woke up! I thought you wouldn't wake up!"
Ji Changan was young and had gone through all that. When he saw Ji Changyue unconscious after encountering the resentful demon, he thought that Ji Changyue was just like the people in the village. Even though Li Qingfeng said it was just excessive blood loss, he was still afraid.
"Chang'an, I'm fine." Ji Changyue comforted, sitting up with her other hand and touching his head, "You didn't encounter a resentful demon yesterday, right?"
"No." Ji Changan shook his head obediently, "Yesterday I was woken up and was stopped by Master Li Xian when I went out. He asked me to go find the Lord of the City and ask the Lord to lead people to prepare defenses."
Li Qingfeng himself knew that they had little chance of winning against the resentful demon, so he could only ask the city lord to prepare in advance to reduce casualties to a minimum. It could be said that they went there with the determination to die last night.
The three people were seriously injured, but they were monks after all and recovered quickly.
Before Ji Changyue's wound scabbed, the three of them came to her to express their gratitude.
"Thank you, girl, for saving me!" Li Qingfeng and the other three clasped their fists, looking very sincere, which made Ji Changyue a little embarrassed.
Ji Changyue said, "The immortal masters were in danger just to save me, so I should express my gratitude to the immortal masters."
Li Qingfeng shook his head, "It is our responsibility to suppress demons and protect the people. We cannot confuse this with the girl risking her life to save me."
Ji Changyue had no choice but to accept it, but Ji Changyue refused all the thank-you gifts they insisted on giving.
After talking about this, Ji Changyue saw that Li Qingfeng and the others were still here. She took out the jade pendant and asked, "Master Immortal, do you want to ask about this jade pendant?"
Being seen through directly, Bai Yu and Wang Yuan scratched their heads in embarrassment. Li Qingfeng nodded, "To be fair to you, girl, this jade pendant is very special. Please tell us where it comes from."
Such a thing appears in the mortal world, and it requires Ji Changyue's blood to be used, and Ji Changyue is indeed a mortal woman without spiritual power. This has to make Li Qingfeng wonder whether Ji Changyue's identity is... The bloodline left behind by the family.
Ji Changyue knew long ago that she couldn't hide it anymore, so she simply said openly, "The jade pendant was definitely not picked up on the street."
The three of them looked at her expectantly. Ji Changyue smiled and said, "I picked it up on the mountain."
"?"
The three heads with question marks all looked at her. Ji Changyue spread her hands and said, "Master Immortal, you have all seen what happened that day. There is no need for me to lie to you. I did pick up this jade pendant. I also I don’t know why my blood can activate it.”
The jade pendant in the book was useless to her. She had never discovered this function. Later, because the Yunshang Xianzong was so poor that she had no food to eat, she sold the jade pendant.
The purpose of the jade pendant to gather luck was only learned by Ji Changyue after the heroine in the book obtained this jade pendant to help her mother heal her injuries.
Knowing that the jade pendant was really picked up, Li Qingfeng said seriously: "In this case, this is your chance, girl. To be recognized by the jade pendant, the girl must have some immortality. I wonder if the girl has ever thought about entering the immortal sect?"
Immortality is the obsession of countless people.
Entering the Immortal Sect, seeking immortality and seeing a wider world, Li Qingfeng did not believe that Ji Changyue would not be moved.
If Ji Changyue is willing, he can ask the family to give him a place as an outer disciple.
Although Li Qingfeng's cultivation is not obvious, he is the legitimate son of a third-class family in the world of cultivation. He can still get a place in the outer sect.
However, Ji Changyue slowly shook her head under his gaze, "I don't want to."
Of course she wants to, but she has a useless physique! What are you going to do to become an immortal? Are you going to die?
This time, Liu Yan was shocked again, and Bai Yu raised his voice, "Why?"
In order to enter the outer gate, he had to risk his life to get in, so his mind really couldn't understand it.
Ji Changyue moved her mouth, unable to explain to them why she knew she was a loser. She could only vaguely say: "My brother is still young, and I don't trust him alone."
It could be seen that Ji Changyue really did not want to become an immortal, so Li Qingfeng gave up questioning and gave Ji Changyue a small pendant, "If one day you change your mind, you can go to the Li family in Qingyuan to find me."
"Thank you, Immortal Master."
Ji Changyue was not polite this time. Although she was not planning to go to the world of cultivation, who could ensure that she would not seek help in the future? What's more, looking at Li Qingfeng's posture, if she doesn't accept it, there will probably be a lot of pulling.
Li Qingfeng and the others were originally here for the Resentment Demon. This time the Resentment Demon died in an unexpected way, which was regarded as completing their mission. They were planning to return to the sect in the next few days to resume their lives.
The city lord thanked the three of them again and again, and packed up a lot of local specialties for the three of them to take with them before letting them go.
Ji Changyue held Ji Changan's hand and stood at the city gate, watching the three of them walk towards the east side of Wangxian City.
The rolling mountains there are a barrier between the world of cultivation and the mortal world.
Wangxian City is the closest mortal city to the world of cultivation.
After sending Li Qingfeng and the others away, the city lord smiled kindly at Ji Changyue, "Changyue, what are you going to do in the future?"
The city lord also heard about Li Qingfeng's intention to invite Ji Changyue to the Yunshang Immortal Sect. Although he didn't understand why Ji Changyue didn't go to the world of cultivation, he was happy to be kind to his friendship with the immortal master.
Ji Changyue said: "Changyue plans to return to the village to pay homage to the villagers first, and then take Chang'an to find a job in the city. Later, he can save some money and send Chang'an to school."
There is no one in Jijiacun now, and she is unwilling to return to that sad place with Chang'an.
"Okay, it's good to come to the city." The city lord nodded and praised in his heart, he is a far-sighted person.
He added, "I heard that you have studied, are you willing to come to my city lord's mansion and work as an accountant?"
Ji Changyue did read. Ji Changan's father was a scholar and taught in a private school. Ji Changyue studied and read with him when he was young.
It is really inconvenient for an orphan girl to bring Ji Changan and a minor child to live in the city. If she has her back to the city lord's palace, she can save a lot of unnecessary trouble.
So, without thinking for a long time, Ji Changyue made a decision and saluted the city lord: "Thank you, city lord!"
"That's it, it's settled!" The city lord smiled.
After Ji Changyue left, Butler Li beside him was puzzled, "Why did the city lord take in the Ji family siblings?"
He also felt sorry for what happened to the two siblings, but the City Lord's Mansion was strictly managed. Was it too hasty to make such a decision?
The city lord gave Butler Li a look that you don't understand, "I call this early investment. Now that this girl can make the immortal master look at her differently, she may not be able to embark on the path of cultivating immortals in the future. If she succeeds, this will be for our descendants. Gather blessings.”
Butler Li didn't quite understand, so he asked, "What if it doesn't work?"
The city lord choked and glared at him, "If you don't succeed, it won't happen. Can't our city lord's mansion afford a bookkeeper?"
Manager Li smiled and said, "The city lord is wise!" He was relieved in his heart.
Let's talk about Li Qingfeng. After entering the mountain and passing through the barrier, he met an acquaintance.
"Brother, why are you here?" Li Qingfeng asked in surprise.
Li Qingyuan, who was wearing casual clothes, saw Li Qingfeng and did not answer his question. Instead, he raised his eyes and asked quietly: "If you don't practice hard, why are you going to the mortal world?"
"There is a resentment demon in the mortal world. I am ordered by the sect to lead my junior brothers to kill the resentment demon." Li Qingfeng did not care about Li Qingyuan's attitude and answered calmly.
"Resentful demon? How can a demon appear in the mortal world?" Li Qingyuan frowned.
Li Qingfeng said, "I don't know either."
Li Qingyuan didn't expect him to answer, so he asked again, "Have you ever met someone special in the mortal world?"
Li Qingfeng immediately thought of Ji Changyue, but looking at Li Qingyuan's expression, for some reason, he subconsciously wanted to hide it, "I haven't met her."
Li Qingyuan nodded lightly, "In that case, return to the sect as soon as possible and practice well, and don't embarrass the family."
"yes."
Li Qingfeng has always looked up to this cousin, and even if he has a cold attitude, he still takes his words as a guideline.
After watching Li Qingyuan leave, Bai Yu opened his mouth, "Wow, senior brother! Is this the direct disciple of the master of Qianji Peak? He looks so awesome!"
Wang Yuan interrupted, "Of course he's awesome. I'm a master of the golden elixir. How can you, a little qi-training idiot like you, compare to me!"
"Hey!" Bai Yu was unconvinced, "I'm a little bastard who practices qi. What are you? Aren't you also practicing qi? Little bastard?"
The two were fighting and fighting, but Li Qingyuan looked solemn.
I hope the elder brother is not looking for Ji Changyue in the mortal world.
At this time, Ji Changyue, who was worried, knelt in front of the grave and kowtowed three times in silence.
Ji Changyue lit the incense paper and said, "Uncle, aunt, aunt, I brought Chang'an to see you. Your murderer is dead. If you know about it, please rest in peace. I will lead Chang'an to live well, and together we will Take your share."
From now on, the pride of the immortal family, love and hatred, have nothing to do with her.
