Ji Yunxi's eyes were cold and fierce, a look that Lu Chengming had never seen since he knew her.
She had used force before, but she had always been measured and never been so brutal.
But now, it was obvious that she wanted to kill him.
Lu Chengming wanted to beg for mercy, but all that came out of his mouth were moans.
After Qi Haoyang finished off the last person, he turned around and saw Ji Yunxi. She was breathtakingly beautiful. He was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to his senses and walked over.
"Now that we've dealt with these people, we should leave the 25th floor as soon as possible. The keys will become fewer and fewer. Since we've been delayed by them, others will quickly fill the gap. We need to speed up."
Although Ji Yunxi didn't have a strong desire to join Kunlun Mountain, she hadn't seen Jiang Linyin at all along the way. So she thought that only by truly entering Kunlun Mountain would she have a chance to see him.
"Mr. Qi is right. Let's go." After saying that, she withdrew her hand, turned around to look for Feng Xingzhi, and didn't give Lu Chengming on the ground another look.
The group had keys on them. They left right in front of Zhao Qingwan and the others.
"Wait!"
Zhao Qingwan still wanted to struggle desperately. She didn't want to accept the fact that she was left here and would never have a chance to enter Kunlun Mountain again. But her pleas were ignored by Ji Yunxi and her group.
On the next floor, without those annoying people around, Hua Siyun's mind became active. When she saw Qi Haoyang, she went up to him and started gossiping.
"Mr. Qi, why didn't you get engaged to Miss Ji?"
Qi Haoyang was stunned for a second, then glanced at Feng Xingzhi. There was a hint of helpless regret in his voice: "Someone got there first."
His words suddenly made the atmosphere freeze.
Feng Xingzhi was the elder cousin of Li Jiuge. Hearing this, Li Jiuge was very unconvinced: "Even if the one engaged to Yunxi wasn't my imperial brother, it would be General Su Ningyuan. What does it have to do with you?"
Hearing this, Qi Haoyang raised an eyebrow and looked at Feng Xingzhi provocatively: "If you don't believe me, you can break off the engagement now and see if it will be me or Su Ningyuan in the end?"
Ji Yunxi was completely helpless. What was wrong with Qi Haoyang? Why was he provoking Feng Xingzhi out of the blue?
Seeing that Feng Xingzhi's expression was off, she quickly interrupted and protected Feng Xingzhi: "Mr. Qi is just joking. We'll definitely invite you to our wedding banquet, Ah Zhi and I."
Qi Haoyang stared at Ji Yunxi intently. After a long while, he sighed and said, "Miss Ji, I don't understand why you want to get engaged to Prince Feng. You're so powerful and have excellent cultivation. Why did you choose him?"
Feng Xingzhi didn't react much to these words, but Ji Yunxi was unhappy.
The relationship between her and Ah Zhi couldn't be questioned casually. Just like the saying goes, only the person drinking the water knows whether it's cold or warm. She didn't need others to make irresponsible remarks!
Moreover, she had never had any dealings with Qi Haoyang before, and he didn't know Feng Xingzhi at all. Who gave him the right to interfere in her marriage?
Ji Yunxi was almost writing the word "unhappy" on her face. Her tone was cold: "Mr. Qi should just mind his own business. Who I marry has nothing to do with others."
Qi Haoyang paused and wanted to refute a few words.
Ji Yunxi continued: "I just like Ah Zhi. He's gentle and elegant. Even though he's in a high position, he only knows how to seek benefits for the common people, instead of relying on his status and spiritual power to dictate other people's lives."
Ji Yunxi's words were a bit harsh, but Qi Haoyang didn't dare to say more.
He understood that Ji Yunxi was telling him that no matter how high his spiritual power and cultivation were, if she didn't like him, he was nothing. Moreover, even if the other person was not so good, he was still a prince. He, an ordinary imperial merchant, couldn't just say whatever he wanted.
Cold sweat instantly broke out on Qi Haoyang's forehead. He remembered that before he left home, the elders in his family had told him to be careful and keep a low profile. But now he had committed a big taboo.
If Feng Xingzhi really minded, with just a few words, the entire Qi family might lose face.
After Qi Haoyang figured this out, he was scared. He quickly apologized: "I'm really sorry. I didn't mean anything else. I just admire Miss Ji so much that I think Miss Ji deserves the best..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Li Jiuge: "Does Mr. Qi think that - he's the best candidate?"
Qi Haoyang was quite tough. He just smiled and didn't say a word.
Hua Siyun looked at the group and then realized that Qi Haoyang didn't know Feng Xingzhi's real abilities and level at all. He was even self - satisfied here.
With a meaningful smile, Hua Siyun curled her lips: "You don't understand how good Brother Xingzhi is."
After she said that, she turned to look at Feng Xingzhi, hoping to see some approval in his eyes. After all, she was on his side.
Unexpectedly, Feng Xingzhi suddenly wasn't angry anymore. He took Ji Yunxi's hand: "Yes, it's enough for Xixi to understand my goodness."
"I don't care about others."
This farce ended with Qi Haoyang's embarrassment.
Knowing his intentions, Feng Xingzhi started to be on high alert. Qi Haoyang simply couldn't find a chance to talk to Ji Yunxi alone.
After Du Tianchen saw through their feelings, he also stopped getting close to Ji Yunxi and whispering to her.
But there was still something he wanted to show her.
So when Feng Xingzhi was not nearby, he walked up to Ji Yunxi and took out a Prime Minister's Order from his bosom with a smile.
"Miss Ji, what do you think of this?"
Ji Yunxi took the thing and examined it from side to side. Then she asked in surprise: "Isn't this the Prime Minister's Order of the Lu family?! Didn't you return it?"
Du Tianchen was very satisfied with her reaction and immediately looked proud: "Come on, once the Thief Saint gets something, there's no way it will be returned for no reason."
Ji Yunxi couldn't believe it. In the illusion, did Du Tianchen have the ability to replicate this thing?
"Don't think too much. I can't make a second one."
He guessed Ji Yunxi's thoughts right away.
Ji Yunxi wasn't angry. Instead, she humbly asked: "Then how did you get it?"
"Of course, I used my wisdom to get it back."
It turned out that when Qi Haoyang called Ji Yunxi away and they were about to teleport, Du Tianchen quickly went to Lu Chengming's side, pretended to support him, and then smoothly took the thing away. It was truly undetected.
Ji Yunxi returned the thing to him: "Since you've got it, it's yours. Keep it well."
The growing team brought a lot of convenience to their journey through the levels. Soon, they arrived at the 29th floor.
There were surprisingly few fierce beasts on this floor. They searched for a whole two days but didn't find a single trace.
Fortunately, Ji Yunxi was smart. She led the group along the excrement of the fierce beasts and finally came to a dense forest.
Deep in the forest, a big guy that had been waiting for a long time was eagerly looking forward to their arrival.
