Ji Yuchen stepped forward. After all, having once served as the prime minister, he showed no trace of fear towards them. Instead, he exuded a palpable sense of threat.
"You, Immortal Venerable, speak so nicely. But what if she really wants to kill our Yunxi? After all, she has already attacked once," he said.
Rong Hua looked at the young man in front of him. He had known before that Ji Yunxi had two twin brothers. Ji Yunyi had become a disciple under Ning Shuihan and was a kind - hearted and innocent person. As for this elder brother, he had never met him before.
He had only caught a brief glimpse of him last time and thought him to be a modest and polite person. Now it seemed that he had misjudged. Although this man's spiritual power cultivation was not as high as many on the mountain, he carried a heavy aura of authority. One look at him and it was obvious that he was a person in a high position.
Even Rong Hua, an Immortal Venerable, felt a bit embarrassed when looking into his eyes.
"I know you're very worried about her. I know the nature of her injury. Although the wound looked deep, it was not fatal," Rong Hua said.
"Not fatal, but she fainted, right?" Li Jiuge didn't care about any etiquette and retorted directly.
Rong Hua felt helpless. Now he had become the target of everyone's criticism. "Yes, but although she fainted, it was just because Ji Yunxi couldn't withstand the attack of the power of a supreme god. It wasn't that Yunluotian really wanted to kill her. I'll be straight with you. If she really had such an intention, she probably wouldn't have waited for me to arrive," he explained.
Feng Xingzhi had gradually calmed down. He knew the relationship between Ji Yunxi and Yunluotian, so he guessed that Rong Hua was right. If Yunluotian really wanted to kill Xixi, one strike would have been enough.
"What about the seal in her body?" Feng Xingzhi thought of another question and asked softly.
Hearing this, Rong Hua replied, "I've also examined the seal. It has only loosened slightly, which is no different from the last time I checked."
Feng Xingzhi tightened his grip on the sword in his hand and made up his mind that if anything happened to Ji Yunxi, even if Yunluotian was a supreme god, he would fight her to the death.
The madness in his eyes, willing to sacrifice everything, made Rong Hua extremely anxious. If something really went wrong, this would surely turn into a big mess.
Yunluotian really knew how to cause him trouble!
Li Jiuge was so angry that her eyes turned red, and tears rolled down uncontrollably. This made Ji Yuchen anxious and his heart ached.
She didn't want others to worry about her, so she turned around and secretly wiped away her tears.
Ji Yunyi saw this and subconsciously walked towards her. Suddenly, he saw his elder brother take a quick step forward, reach out his sleeve to wipe away the tears from the corner of her eyes, and comfort her softly.
With a touch of loneliness in his eyes, Ji Yunyi silently took a step back and stared at the closed door again.
They waited like this for an entire night.
None of them left and they kept guarding in front of the door.
When dawn was just breaking, Chu Huaiyuan, Bai Youmu, Ning Shuihan, Xiao Yi and others all came to Rong Hua's palace.
Feng Xingzhi frowned slightly, feeling strange. He had met Chu Huaiyuan before. During the written test for the disciples, he knew that this man had ill intentions and had a strange hostility towards them. These people coming now must not be out of concern for Ji Yunxi. There must be another purpose.
Rong Hua's eyes also darkened. "I wonder what the sect master wants?"
He was afraid that these people had ulterior motives and wanted to drive Chu Huaiyuan and the others away.
Xiao Yi glanced at Chu Huaiyuan and stepped forward. "What are you saying, Immortal Venerable Rong Hua? We're just here to check on the safety of the disciple out of concern. Moreover, with such an incident happening on the mountain, we also need to give an explanation to the other disciples, don't we?"
Chu Huaiyuan's slanting eyes revealed a fierce light as he nodded in agreement.
Rong Hua clenched his hands. If only Xiao Yi were here, it would be okay. But Chu Huaiyuan had also come to join in the fun. He had never had much influence in front of Chu Huaiyuan, and now he was at a loss.
"Your words are really ridiculous, Immortal Venerable Xiao Yi. Isn't this incident caused by your Kunlun Mountain? Well, I also want an explanation from you. It would be best if you let that Yunluotian come out and explain it clearly to this victim's family member," Ji Yuchen said. He was smart and immediately saw the problem. Since they, the people from Kunlun Mountain, couldn't say much, he could at least speak up.
"My sister is going to be the princess of the Southern Yan in the future. If someone attacks the princess today, will they attack the Southern Yan next time? I'll report this to the emperor right away and see how domineering your Kunlun Mountain is!"
Ji Yuchen knew how to hit the nail on the head. Apart from being connected to the upper realm, Kunlun Mountain also received support from the four kingdoms. If they really offended the four kingdoms, it would obviously not be a good thing.
Bai Youmu knew that this was not the time to be impulsive. Chu Huaiyuan didn't care about worldly affairs. If they really offended the four kingdoms, he would be the one in trouble.
So he stepped forward voluntarily. "You're being too serious, Lord Ji. We're just showing our concern... Immortal Venerable Xiao Yi, you'd better keep your mouth shut."
He gave Xiao Yi a cold look without showing any respect. Xiao Yi wanted to retort but glanced at Chu Huaiyuan.
Seeing that he looked like he was staying out of it, Xiao Yi could only close his mouth embarrassedly.
Rong Hua looked at them and for the first time, he hoped that Yunluotian would come out quickly to deal with these people.
Almost at noon, Yunluotian finally walked out of the room.
Chu Huaiyuan was sitting upright in the yard. When he saw her come out, he asked, "What's the situation?"
Yunluotian disliked him the most and said with a cold face, "It's just a personal grudge. No one died. Are you so free, sect master? There's no need for you to inquire."
Chu Huaiyuan immediately tightened his hands, filled with dissatisfaction. Yunluotian had never respected him.
Although he was dissatisfied with Yunluotian's behavior, he knew that he had to give this supreme god some face. "In that case, let it be. Let's go," he said.
After saying that, he got up and led Bai Youmu and the others away. Before leaving, Bai Youmu and Ning Shuihan glanced at Rong Hua and nodded at him. Rong Hua also nodded slightly in response.
When they were about to reach the door, Ning Shuihan suddenly stopped. "Ji Yunyi, Li Jiuge."
The two quickly stepped forward. "Master."
"You've been idle for many days. It's about time you go back to practice," she scolded with a cold face. But secretly, she suddenly stretched out her hand, holding a white jade bottle in her palm.
Seeing that the people in front weren't paying attention to her, she whispered to Li Jiuge, "This is good for external injuries."
After saying that, she turned around and left as if she had done nothing.
Li Jiuge knew that her master was kind - hearted but sometimes couldn't do as she wished. But her act of secretly giving the medicine was already enough to touch people's hearts.
Ji Yunyi didn't see what Ning Shuihan had done and looked at her curiously. "What did the master give you?"
"I won't tell you," Li Jiuge snorted and then turned to Ji Yuchen. "Brother, my master brought this medicine. She said it's good for external injuries."
"Then thank your master," Ji Yuchen said.
Ji Yuchen could see clearly that although Kunlun Mountain seemed calm on the surface, in fact, undercurrents were surging.
