Ji Qian's face darkened. "You are blocking me from entering. I am beginning to suspect that something has happened to the young lady. She hasn't left the house in three days!"
Huang Ji narrowed his eyes. "She may be the young mistress of your Ji family, but she is also the head of our Fengshen Sect. I dare not disobey the orders of the head. Please go back, Master Ji. The head will summon you when he is free!"
Ji Qian's expression turned cold. "You probably don't understand what's going on right now, do you? Now that the Third Young Master is dead, you, the foreign relatives, are guests here. It's important for guests to follow the host's wishes. Don't you understand?"
"What do you mean?" Huang Ji's face turned cold.
"The Third Elder hopes that you will leave as soon as possible instead of staying here!" Ji Qian said coldly.
"How dare you! Even though the Lord has passed away, the headmaster is still the young mistress of the Ji family. How dare you commit insubordination?"
"The young lady is just an outsider. My surname is Ji, so please get out of the way!" Ji Qian said with a cold expression.
But at this moment, Ji Yu appeared, with a face full of flesh, looking a little fierce!
"Ji Qian, what's going on!"
When Ji Qian saw Ji Yu, he was like a mouse seeing a cat, and immediately lowered his head: "Nothing, I just want to go in and persuade the young lady, but Huang Ji won't let me in."
Huang Ji said indifferently: "Our leader has given orders, and I shall obey!"
Ji Yu waved his hand: "You go down first!"
"Yes, Elder!"
In the Ji family, anyone who is called an elder is a true core member of the Ji family.
People like Ji Qian have a completely different status in the Ji family.
He is somewhat like the outer disciples of some sects.
Ji Yu glanced at the room and frowned, "Go tell them her seventh uncle is here!"
Huang Ji did not refuse this time, because Ji Yu and their Lord's father were brothers.
Huang Ji went to report.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Chen An lying on the bed!
Huang Ji was not surprised at all.
At this moment, Huang Ji clasped his fists and said, "Master, that Ji Qian just now was very rude. It seems that now that the Lord has left, they look down on us!"
"People are gone and the tea gets cold, or they have ulterior motives!"
Lu Hongyi narrowed her eyes: "How's Liu Hu doing?"
"There's still no news. I guess they don't dare to take action. These people... can't be relied upon!"
Huang Ji then said seriously, "The Lord's seventh uncle outside wants to see the Sect Leader. Do you want to see him or not?"
Lu Hongyi nodded: "Let Uncle Seven come in!"
Although Lu Hongyi didn't dare to trust everyone in the Ji family, Ji Yu and Ji Changye were both Chen An's elders.
Ji Yu is the brother of Chen An’s father, and Ji Changye is also the brother of Chen An’s grandfather.
However, Lu Hongyi still did not dare to be careless and had not yet revealed any news that Chen An was not dead.
"After letting Uncle Seventh in, please pay a little attention to Ji Qian!"
"Yes, Master!"
In a moment!
Ji Yu comes in!
Looking at Ji Ba lying on the bed, silent.
Ji Yu's face also looked a little heavy. He followed in person and did not even follow the ancestor's instructions, which was not to take action unless he encountered someone who was plotting to harm the children of the Ji family.
It’s because this kid is his second brother’s son!
Now that Chen An is dead, Ji Yu is actually feeling bad too. He does bear a great responsibility!
"Hello, Uncle Seven!" Lu Hongyi stood up with a sad look on her face.
It even seems a little haggard!
If Chen An saw this, he would have to give a thumbs up to this tough wife. Her acting level has really improved dramatically.
"No need to be polite, Hongyi. I came here to ask you when you will return to the Polar Region with Ji Ba. I still have time to escort you. If it's any later, I'm afraid I won't have time and will have to ask others to escort you."
Lu Hongyi sighed: "Seventh Uncle is busy with something, don't worry about me and Chen An, let me stay with him for a few more days, wait..."
Ji Yu's face was serious: "Hongyi, it was Uncle Qi who failed to protect Ji Ba. Please forgive me!"
Lu Hongyi didn't say anything, and seemed to not know what to say.
Then, Ji Yu said, "The thing is, the coronation ceremony is about to begin, and many powerful people who have entered the depths of the polar regions have also come out and gathered in this chaotic city!"
"This place is going to be very complicated. Besides, there are indeed people secretly targeting the children of my Ji family. You might not be able to live in peace even if you stay here!"
Ji Yu's face showed a bit of dejection at this moment, as if something had happened.
Lu Hongyi's eyes flashed: "Seventh Uncle, is there something wrong?"
Ji Yu sighed: "I'm afraid our Ji family will become a laughing stock during this coronation ceremony!"
"Why?" Lu Hongyi was puzzled.
"We had originally planned to have Ji Ba participate in the coronation ceremony, and we also had a younger member of our family, Ji Sheng, come to participate. But then..."
Ji Yu glanced at Chen An lying on the bed and gritted his teeth, "In the end, Ji Ba is dead. The only disciple of my Ji family who participated died inexplicably yesterday!"
Lu Hongyi took a deep breath, her eyes sharpening a little: "Don't you know who did it?"
"The Ji family's children died in strange ways. They showed no signs of injury or struggle, and simply died inexplicably. It seemed as if some force had instantly shattered their spirits!"
At this point, Ji Yu said earnestly, "I feel like a bloody storm is about to unfold here, so you should go back with Ji Ba as soon as possible. This will also give me and your Third Uncle Gong some peace of mind!"
"Seventh Uncle, have you ever thought about what problems are happening within the Ji family?" Lu Hongyi stared at Ji Yu, as if looking at Ji Yu's expression.
