Chapter 112: Minding Other People’s Business

The two of them left the yard, and Ji Qingling received a gift from his friend's grandfather.

A set of defensive formations, Yuanying Daojun's defensive formations. Ji Qingling was already smiling when he came out.

Guan Yunchao couldn't bear to see her being proud, "Next time, you should also mention what my grandfather gave you in front of your master, so that when Chongtai Daojun sees me, he won't be stingy."

Tsk~ "Sister Qingling."

Ji Qingling paused. What a name! Then he saw a female cultivator standing outside the courtyard, who had reached the great perfection of Qi training.

Call her sister?

Ji Qingling hesitated a little, "Daoyou called me?"

She turned to look at Guan Yunchao, and Guan Yunchao also shook his head to indicate that he didn't know her.

The woman smiled and said, "Sister Qingling, you don't know me. I am Ji Rong from the Ji family."

"Ji Rong?" Ji Qingling still didn't recognize her.

"I entered the City Lord's Mansion before you came back from Xiaowang Mountain."

Ji Qingling finally understood, "How did the clan sister recognize me?"

"Haha, the Third Elder brought our Ji family's genius to the banquet. I heard about it, too."

Ji Rong still had a smile on her face. "I haven't seen the Third Elder for a long time. It's just the right time to go see him."

In this way, the two people strolling in the garden became three people walking together.

The third elder was visibly stunned when he saw Ji Rong.

Ji Rong stepped forward and saluted, "Third Elder."

"It's Rong girl."

Ji Qingling looked at the Third Elder's expression and felt that there must be something else going on between them.

But in this situation, she put away her curiosity.

Ji Rong just exchanged a few words with the third elder and then left.

Soon the celebration began. There is a big difference between marriage in the immortal world and in the secular world.

The MC announced the start of the celebration, and the two newlyweds walked onto the stage, said a few vows, and each exchanged a drop of their own blood, and that was it.

After attending a boring wedding of a stranger, Ji Qingling followed the Third Elder out of the City Lord's Mansion.

On the way, Ji Qingling did not ask, but the third elder spoke first.

"You may meet Rong'er again in the future, so it's better to tell you about these things."

"That clan sister?"

"Well, at that time, the Hong family destroyed the Red Pearl Tree, which made the Ji family, which was already at a disadvantage, even more insecure. At that time, Ji Rong was at the peak of Qi Refining Great Perfection and was preparing to build a foundation."

Ji Qingling was a little surprised, "The peak of Qi Refining Great Perfection?"

That sister's cultivation level has declined instead of improved over the years? Ji Qingling is not a naive girl. Even if she has never eaten pork, she has seen pigs run.

Now I finally understand what that clan sister meant by entering the City Lord's Mansion, not marrying into the City Lord's Mansion.

The third elder sighed and said, "The first elder was in seclusion at the time, and the clan members did not listen to the words of the other elders at all. He sent Ji Rong to the City Lord's Mansion. The Master Tongming in the City Lord's Mansion has been unable to break through, and he has been looking for female cultivators everywhere for him to practice with."

A cultivator's spiritual power is purest before he breaks through to a great realm, because he needs to prepare for the breakthrough, so this is undoubtedly the most discerning way to please.

No one knows what Ji Rong experienced after entering the City Lord's Mansion.

Now, after so many years, she still hasn't established her foundation. The damage she suffered back then must have been greater than everyone thought.

And that Master Tongming has not yet formed a baby. Perhaps he has done too many immoral things and his inner demons are too heavy to break through.

"Then Third Elder, can't Sister Ji Rong leave?"

"I don't know whether that master will agree, nor do I know whether Ji Rong herself is willing to leave. After all, the City Lord's Mansion is much better than the Ji family. Even if she is just a concubine of a Jindan cultivator."

Ji Qingling thought that no matter who encountered something like Ji Rong, they would never want to return to the Ji family. No matter how much the Ji family changed, the harm to her was real.

"Qingling girl, I want to ask you a favor."

Ji Qingling's heart skipped a beat, thinking it must be something bad.

The third elder continued, "Back then, the clan leader asked me to send someone to send Ji Rong to the City Lord's Mansion, so I can be considered one of the accomplices."

"Third Elder?"

"Although it was the clan leader's order, I didn't say a word to help that girl. In the end, it was our Ji family that let her down. You are familiar with the single spiritual root in the Ji family. Can you ask him for a favor and let Ji Rong go if she is willing?"

So the Third Elder already knew that Guan Yunchao’s grandfather, the Yuanying Daojun, had seen her.

Ji Qingling was really troubled, so he wanted to hand this matter over to her? The Third Elder didn't say anything back then, but now that he has real power, he still pushes this matter to her. Why does it look so awkward?

"You don't have to rush to answer me. If it works, just consider it as something I owe you. If it doesn't, just consider it as something I never said."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

I've already said it, what do you mean I haven't said it, you are a Jindan elder, are you blackmailing me morally! ...

Ji Qingling was feeling aggrieved when she returned home. She did not reply to the Third Elder. She could just pretend that she did not hear that. She had to leave early the next morning anyway.

She thought of a possibility. Given the Third Elder's personality, he shouldn't care about this matter.

Could it be the Great Elder? But that was too much of a coincidence, right? Maybe if Ji Rong didn't run into her outside the courtyard today, she would run into her somewhere else, with the purpose of bringing up this matter?

What did the Great Elder mean? Ji Qingling thought that it was possible that the Great Elder was testing him.

In fact, she is also a talented child in the family, but she did not grow up in the Ji family, but came back from Xiaowangshan.

The members of Xiaowangshan's clan have formed a separate faction in the Ji family until now, and Ji Qingshan is their backbone.

Would the Great Elder think that Ji Qingling treated the family in the same way? Would he want to use this incident to see Ji Qingling's attitude towards the Ji family members?

Alas, human nature! She also believed that the first and third elders were only concerned about the good of the family.

Especially the eldest elder. Since he took over the Ji family, the changes within the Ji family have been obvious to all.

Their family has been deeply cared for by the Ji family over the years, and Ji Qingling's view of the Ji family has also changed.

She could even understand the Great Elder's approach. No matter how talented the clan members were, if they had no sense of belonging to the family, they were not worth cultivating.

Although Ji Qingling doesn't need it now, Ji Linhai and Mo Sanniang are still here.

If you want the family to treat you well, you must make your attitude clear.

As for whether it was the Great Elder's intention or not, it doesn't matter anymore.

Word spreads very quickly in the world of immortal cultivation, so she didn't want to spend any more time guessing how the Great Elder knew about this so quickly.

After thinking it through, Ji Qingling decided to take care of this matter. She sent a message to Guan Yunchao and returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

Guan Yunchao never thought that Ji Qingling came back for this matter.

Ji Qingling himself was at a loss for words, "Guan Liuliu, do you think this is okay?"

"If you ask me to shut up Liuliu again, this won't work."

Ji Qingling heard that there was a chance, "Brother Guan, please help me. This is the first time our elder has asked me to do something."

"It's not impossible. I know Master Tongming, and he is from our lineage, but~"

"But what?"

"But you should at least ask your sister first!"

Thanks for the reward, you are now the top brother on my list~ 　　 　 (End of this chapter)
