"Then how am I supposed to catch up on Aoki Densetsu?!" Jiang Yuan wasn't skeptical, but he was worried about not being able to work!
"Then!" Ning Yanlan stuck out her tongue and licked her lips, revealing a charming expression, "There's an even simpler way!"
...
Three hours later, the ice puck shattered, a copy of the Aoki Manual was placed on the table, and the Divine Blood Stone had disappeared.
Ning Yanlan's clothes were disheveled, well, of course she wasn't doing *that*.
In fact, Jiang Yuan only spent half an hour to complete the Green Wood Canon, and he also added some tricks to it. As long as the Ji family does not follow the rules, then this Green Wood Canon, hehe!
The two spent the other two and a half hours happily developing their cores. Although they didn't do much, it was still a good way to pass the time.
Ning Yanlan's disheveled appearance was actually due to her changing into a fifth-tier magic robe, just like the one Ji Jinghui had worn before. To be able to find such a robe was truly an incredible stroke of luck, as it was a treasure obtained from a third-tier mithril core, belonging to the top grade among fifth-tier items.
Strength-based equipment mostly increases defense, while psionic equipment mostly consists of robes that enhance psionic power. Of course, there are exceptions, but they are very few.
Because the fifth-tier robe was unisex, Ning Yanlan disliked it and didn't want it, so Jiang Yuan resorted to force and made her put it on, which resulted in the disheveled appearance.
"Look at you, I told you I wouldn't wear it anymore, it's so uncomfortable to wear it inside!" Ning Yanlan squirmed uncomfortably.
"This clothing does offer some protection, and it even boosts my spiritual energy. Why wouldn't I wear it?" Jiang Yuan subconsciously licked his lips, a lingering effect of resisting the cold earlier.
When the puck broke, there was a similar commotion in another room.
"Grandpa, what are they doing?" Ji Jinghui asked, standing in front of the monitor screen.
"This girl is extraordinary. Even I can't use this ice magic, but she can create such a small space with a wave of her hand!" Ji Xing'an's attention was not on Jiang Yuan, because he knew that no one could complete Qingmu Dian's Daoist essence in such a short time.
Let alone three hours, even a master of ancient martial arts couldn't complete the Azure Wood Manual in three years.
"Grandpa, could they have actually completed Aoki Densetsu?" Ji Jinghui suddenly thought of an impossible possibility.
"Don't overthink it, we need to be prepared for a protracted battle!" Ji Xing'an shook his head. "Let's go, let's go check on them."
The chrome alloy door opened, and the Ji family grandfather and grandson walked in.
"They're here!" Jiang Yuan muttered to himself, while also alerting Ning Yanlan.
"Gentlemen, are you confident in completing the Azure Wood Canon?" Ji Xing'an asked with a smile, reassuring them. He assumed that the two of them had only spent the last three hours familiarizing themselves with the Azure Wood Canon and had not considered the possibility of completing its Daoist principles.
"Patriarch Ji, please take a look at the Azure Wood Manual!" Jiang Yuan pointed to the ancient martial arts manual on the table. In some ways, this ancient martial arts manual had been restored to its original state, and was even better. However, Jiang Yuan had concealed the body-forging formula. This was his own thing, and he was not so foolish as to give it away.
"Hmm?" Ji Xing'an frowned, displeased, and said, "Young Master Jiang, you've misunderstood me!"
"What I want is to complete the Daoist Rhyme of Aoki. It's far too perfunctory of you to think you can end the deal after just one look!"
"Patriarch Ji, you can take a look at Aoki Den before making a conclusion!" Jiang Yuan said with a faint smile.
Ji Xing'an picked up Aoki Nobuyoshi with some skepticism, but the moment he did, his expression changed drastically. "This?"
Jiang Yuan simply smiled faintly, completely ignoring Ji Xing'an, whose heart was in turmoil.
"Grandpa, what's wrong?" Ji Jinghui hadn't seen his grandfather in a long time and was shocked. Since childhood, his grandfather had always given him a calm and composed image, so seeing his grandfather like this was quite a shock to him.
Ji Xing'an didn't speak, but instead turned the pages of the ancient martial arts manual in his hand one by one.
Jiang Yuan and Ning Yanlan waited, and finally, half an hour later, Ji Xing'an stopped what he was doing.
"Good, very good!" Ji Xing'an laughed heartily.
"Patriarch Ji, can we complete the transaction now?" Jiang Yuan asked with a smile.
"Grandpa, is it finished?" Ji Jinghui asked incredulously.
"Take a look!" Ji Xing'an handed Aoki Denki to Ji Jinghui.
After a long pause, Ji Jinghui said seriously, "This is the real Aoki Dojutsu!"
Ji Xing'an looked at Jiang Yuan with a complicated expression, and then said sincerely, "Jiang Yuan, are you interested in joining the Ji family?"
"Patriarch Ji, you jest. As you said before, she and I are lovers. How could I marry into the Ji family?" Jiang Yuan politely declined.
"No, no, no, it's not about marrying into the family, but about joining the Ji family as someone with a different surname! If you're willing, you two can both become guest elders of the Ji family and enjoy the benefits of the Ji family."
