Ji Yuchen was stunned by the sudden push. "What's wrong?"
Thinking about the reason she came to Kunlun Mountain, Li Jiuge instantly despised her own behavior. She had clearly promised to stay away from him, so why was she getting closer?
Suppressing her little thoughts, Li Jiuge forced a polite and distant smile. "I was being impolite, big brother. Second brother is right. Yunxi is injured. She must be weak when she wakes up, and second brother can't cook. I'd better go."
Saying so, she turned around and left without even giving Ji Yuchen a look.
Ji Yuchen watched her leave. He wanted to call out to her but couldn't. He just watched as she walked further and further away.
Because of the arrival of Xiao Yi and his group, the news of Ji Yunxi's injury spread like wildfire, but the disciples had no idea about the reason.
"Could she have gone mad during cultivation?"
"Who knows? I always thought there was something wrong with that Ji Yunxi. She's so powerful."
"Yeah, for a woman to have such high spiritual power, there must be something fishy..."
Before the man could finish his sentence, he was suddenly kicked away.
"Who dares to hit me?!"
The man was furious. Looking up, he saw Qi Haoyang glaring at him angrily.
The man shivered under his gaze and instantly lost his confidence. "It's, it's Senior Brother Qi..."
"Keep talking. I'm listening." Qi Haoyang's voice was as cold as ice, sending shivers down people's spines.
The man shook his head repeatedly, thinking he was really unlucky. He didn't know what was wrong with Qi Haoyang, but he always protected Ji Yunxi. He could say whatever he wanted in front of others, but not in front of this god of death.
"I, I just..."
"You're just jealous. You're jealous that she has what you don't. A man with such a narrow mind is despicable."
"You!"
Qi Haoyang snorted. "Spiritual power is a gift from heaven. Whether it's much or little is a blessing. But you question the gift from heaven just because of gender. It's really ridiculous. If you think you're not good enough, then learn and practice, instead of spouting nonsense here!"
The man blushed. Qi Haoyang's words hit the nail on the head, but he couldn't even refute.
Seeing him deflated, Qi Haoyang tossed the things in his hand and turned to walk towards the residence of Immortal Venerable Ronghua, leaving the man behind to be pointed at by others.
Ji Yuchen had come to the residence early in the morning to take care of Ji Yunxi, allowing Feng Xingzhi to go back and rest for a while.
As soon as Qi Haoyang entered the courtyard, he seemed to see someone who shouldn't be on Kunlun Mountain, and that was Ji Yuchen.
He was very surprised. Although the Ji siblings were on Kunlun Mountain, as a prime minister, Ji Yuchen shouldn't have left easily, right?
Although he was curious, Qi Haoyang immediately saluted Ji Yuchen. "Greetings, Prime Minister."
Ji Yuchen squinted at him for a while before recognizing him as Qi Haoyang, the eldest son of the largest imperial merchant in Southern Yan. He had heard that this man was deep - minded, and now he saw that it was true. He recognized him immediately after just one look.
He smiled slightly. "Mr. Qi, you're being too polite. I've already resigned from office. I can't bear the title of prime minister anymore."
Qi Haoyang suddenly realized. Since he had resigned, it made sense that he would come to find his younger siblings.
"I wonder what brings you here so early, Mr. Qi?"
Qi Haoyang smiled awkwardly and handed over the bag in his hand. "These are some wound medicines. I heard that Miss Ji was injured, so I came to see if they would be useful."
Ji Yuchen had already heard that Qi Haoyang had his eye on his younger sister. Before, he thought there might be some misunderstanding, but now it seemed to be true.
Although he had no prejudice against Qi Haoyang, he was very satisfied with Feng Xingzhi as his brother - in - law and had no intention of changing. So, he naturally didn't have a good attitude towards Qi Haoyang.
He said coldly, "Yunxi is fine. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Qi."
Qi Haoyang wasn't stupid. He could feel the dislike in the other's tone. He smiled awkwardly. "Mr. Ji, you're being too polite. I was fortunate enough to be saved by Miss Ji and Prince Feng before. Now that I heard Miss Ji was injured, I rushed here immediately."
After saying that, he put down the things and left sensibly.
Ji Yuchen didn't stop him. He shook his head at his back. He was a good person, but falling in love with his sister would ultimately lead to no result.
He thought that one visit from this uninvited guest would be enough, but unexpectedly, he came again, and this time with a big commotion.
Near noon, a group of people swaggered up the mountain. Lu Chengming was carried in, looking gloating.
Feng Xingzhi was in the room taking care of Ji Yunxi, while Ji Yuchen and Li Jiuge were in the courtyard, taking out the food from the food boxes and arranging them.
As soon as Li Jiuge saw that it was Lu Chengming, her face darkened immediately. She sneered, "You're still alive?"
Lu Chengming looked gloomy and retorted coldly, "You guys aren't dead yet. How can I die? I'm here today to see when Ji Yunxi will die!"
Ji Yuchen's sword was placed on the stone table. Hearing his words, the sword instantly flew out of its scabbard and pointed straight at Lu Chengming. "Get out!"
His movement was smooth and natural. Li Jiuge stared blankly, suddenly feeling a little shy. She thought that Ji Yuchen really lived up to being the man she liked. Even the action of drawing his sword was extremely handsome.
Lu Chengming was panicked when the sword pointed at him. He pretended to be calm and said, "Who are you? Why are you on my Kunlun Mountain?"
Ji Yuchen frowned. His identity did seem a bit inappropriate here. He didn't know how to answer properly for a moment.
Just then, a maid from Yunluotian suddenly appeared and said loudly, "This is a distinguished guest of Immortal Venerable Ronghua. Do you have any more questions?"
After being injured, Lu Chengming's movements were restricted, so he hadn't seen much of Yunluotian and naturally didn't recognize her maid. Seeing someone stand up to refute him, he immediately got angry. "Who are you?!"
The people around him were already extremely frightened. They quickly pulled at Lu Chengming's sleeve. "Stop talking. Let's go quickly."
"What are you guys so scared of?"
The maid clearly lost her patience. A huge pressure hit, and a group of people knelt down one after another. "We dare not! We dare not!"
Shouting, most of them crawled away, leaving only a few who had already knelt down and couldn't move.
Lu Chengming also felt the huge pressure. He stammered, "You..."
"Shut up!" The person beside him stopped him. "Don't say anything else! She's from the Celestial Goddess Yunluotian!"
As soon as these words were said, Lu Chengming suddenly stopped. He obviously didn't expect this, and fear gradually appeared in his eyes.
Only then did Lu Chengming notice the maid's clothes and appearance. It was obvious that this was the attire of someone from Yunluotian's courtyard.
"Are you still not leaving?"
"We're leaving. We're leaving!" A few people dragged Lu Chengming away, crawling away in a hurry and not daring to say another word.
