Chapter 29 That sickly guy is actually a master of metaphysics 29
Upon hearing Jin Feng's words, another person raised an eyebrow and chimed in, "I heard that a young master from a collateral branch of the Ji family became mentally impaired after suffering a fever."
“And another thing,” a boy raised his hand and said, “I heard that the Ji family sends their children on a trip every two years. I heard that the Ji family had a 16-year-old genius girl in the past, but unfortunately she fell off a cliff and died during the trip.”
"If she hadn't died, she would be about the same age as Young Master Ji now."
Jin Feng flicked her long, thin braid behind her: "That's why everyone talks about cause and effect, because the sins you committed in the past will eventually come back to haunt you."

Although Ji Huaizhi is currently a rogue cultivator, he has not caused any impact.
After resting and getting some rest, I went with Master Wan'an to watch the metaphysics conference.
His current status is not restricted; in fact, one could say he is free.
However, when the Ji family saw him, they would deliberately avoid him. When he was at the Ji residence, everyone had witnessed his abilities.
Everyone understands that although he is now a rogue cultivator, he still has the support of Wan'an Taoist Temple behind him.
After being discharged from the hospital, Ji Huaiming felt refreshed and energetic; this was what it felt like to be healthy.
Although he knew that Ji Huaizhi had not been taken to the Disciplinary Hall to be subjected to extreme punishment, and although he was very unhappy and even more disgusted with him, he was still in high spirits.
Nothing could make me happier than his recovery.
Ji Qingshan had several doctors examine him, and the results all indicated that the surgery was very successful and he was recovering well.
Both father and son were very happy.
"You should take good care of yourself now to prepare for the future." Ji Qingshan finally calmed down a bit:
“Take some time to announce your status as heir. Our Ji family hasn’t had any happy events in a long time, so this is a good opportunity to bring good luck.”
"I know, Dad. I definitely won't let you down." Ji Huaiming's face was filled with excitement: "I'll beat Ji Huaizhi one day."
"To avenge you and your uncle!"
Bai Yunduan held two bowls of soup in her hands. Looking at the father and son, she felt a dull pain in her heart, and she thought of Yuanyuan again.
I was afraid my son would be upset if he saw me, so I made sure to calm myself down before going into the study.
"The servants just made some soup, it will help with your wounds." He handed each of them a bowl.
Ji Qingshan nodded, gesturing for her to place it aside:
"There are bad rumors about the Ji family outside. In this metaphysics conference, the branch of the Ji family didn't even get a ranking."
"I bet people outside don't know what they're saying about the Ji family yet."
Ji Huaiming frowned and put down the soup, perhaps because the movement was a bit too forceful, some soup spilled out of the bowl:
"What a bunch of useless trash! I never imagined that our Ji family, with its vast wealth and power, wouldn't have a single person who can fight!"
Bai Yun glanced at Ji Qingshan upon hearing this.
His expression was somewhat unnatural as he picked up the bowl on the table and took a sip of soup.
"Dad! Before I had the surgery, my other brothers and sisters couldn't beat me. Now that I've had the surgery, I'm sure I'll only get better if I train hard in the future."
Ji Huaiming comforted his father, "Don't worry, I will definitely carry forward the Ji family's glory and restore its former splendor!"
"I'm relieved to hear you say that."
When Ji Huaiming saw that his mother hadn't left the study, he knew that the two of them still had something to say.
She stood up and said, "Then I'll go out first. The doctor said I'm recovering quickly. Dad, just tell me if you need anything."
"Um."
As soon as Ji Huaiming stepped out of the room, he suddenly felt some tinnitus and dizziness.
It was accompanied by palpitations and anxiety—that familiar feeling again.
Ji Huaiming suddenly panicked.
Baiyun noticed his discomfort and asked with a questioning look, "What's wrong, Huaiming?"
"Could it be that his heart is not feeling well?"
Ji Huaiming suppressed his discomfort, opened his eyes and turned around: "No, I just thought of something. I'll go now."
Baiyun thought it didn't look like it.
"What do you want to tell me? And you don't want to say it in front of your son?"
Bai Yun then turned around and said, "I just wanted to ask, wasn't the Buddhist ritual you performed a few days ago to help Yuan Yuan pass on to the afterlife?"
Ji Qingshan did not answer the question.
Bai Yun stepped forward anxiously: "Although I no longer deal with these things after having a child, I used to be a cultivator, why is that?"
Why did you suppress her soul?
Ji Qingshan: "Because she left with resentment."
"Then what's with that formation? You can't use her soul to nourish the Ji family! How is what you're doing any different from a heretical cultivator?"
They watched as the Ji family declined more and more.
When Ji Qingshan was performing the rites for Ji Huaiyuan that day, he thought of the Li family.
So when Baiyun blamed him, he didn't say anything.
But it's impossible for him to destroy the formation.
She only has one daughter.
As long as the Ji family prospers, that is her blessing.
"You don't know, I haven't been sleeping well lately. I dream about Yuanyuan every night. She tells me she's in so much pain and begs me to let her go. That's how I found out..."
Ji Qingshan closed his eyes.
I couldn't stand listening to her sobbing and whining.
"Alright, you know more than one child like her. The most important thing right now is that she's alive. Do you understand, your son Huaiming?"
Seeing her heavy eye bags, he softened his words:
"You can go down now. I'll have someone bring you a calming talisman in a bit."
Ji Huaiming is unaware of these things.
However, because she was feeling unwell, she immediately asked someone to call a doctor.
"Young Master, I have examined you twice. You have no symptoms and your heartbeat is normal."
"But I felt really uncomfortable just now, just like before the surgery," Ji Huaiming said, feeling uneasy.
"Young master, you should actually consider whether this situation might be a psychological issue," the doctor tentatively suggested. "After all, you've often had heart problems in the past."
"Now that I'm better, I still occasionally experience uncomfortable hallucinations."
Ji Huaiming frowned: "Really?"
"Actually, this does happen. Just observe it a little longer and try to relax," the doctor reassured you. "Your surgery was very successful."
Ji Huaiming felt somewhat relieved: "That's for the best. You can go now."
"I'll call you if anything comes up."
"yes."
Ji Huaiming placed his hand on his heart, comforting himself that it was all over.
After the metaphysics conference ended.
Ji Huaizhi then returned to Wan'an Mountain with them. Although he was no longer a member of the Taoist temple, he could stay there under the guise of practicing Taoist cultivation.
The Taoist temple achieved a very good ranking at this metaphysics conference.
My senior uncle had already prepared a lot of dishes, waiting for them to come back to celebrate.
When the other disciples heard that their senior master was cooking, and that several of the dishes were new, they were already thinking about how to avoid his new dishes at dinner that night.
Actually, the food my master cooks isn't bad at all.
However, his new dishes are always unacceptable to people.
However, his medicinal cuisine tastes very good.
Ji Huaizhi has been eating this since he was a child.
When my senior apprentice is cooking other dishes, he might often have a sudden inspiration.
However, he was extremely meticulous when making medicinal cuisine, following the steps in the book one by one.
"Uncle-Master, we're back."
Looking at Huaizhi, Wanggui, and Wangshan, the senior master was delighted: "How did you all feel about your trip down the mountain? You must have benefited greatly, right?"
Wang Gui cupped his hands and said, "Yes, we have seen the gap between ourselves and other sects at this metaphysics conference. We will work even harder to practice in the future."
