Chapter 210: I was pissed off by the Empress even in my mother’s womb (24)
Ji Baiyi's scheming is deeper than imagined. When he started playing chess, he seemed to be careless and underestimated his enemy, but in fact, he was also leaving himself a way out when he underestimated his enemy.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have turned the tables so quickly.
This person has to look three steps ahead before taking a step.
He will only move forward when he is sure that he can attack or defend.
This became especially apparent in the second half of the game.
Cheng Shuhan currently can’t figure out whether Ji Baiyi is a friend or an enemy, so she can only start planning her future retreat.
If Ji Baiyi is not a good person, she can wipe out the other party's forces in one fell swoop.
If his target was not the Ji family, Cheng Shuhan would naturally keep this matter in mind.
It depends on what Ji Baiyi wants to do in the future.
Ji Baiyi came out of Cheng Shuhan's room, and the smile on his face faded after Cheng Shuhan's door closed.
How could he, who is so smart, not realize that his junior sister was testing him?
On his way back, Ji Baiyi kept thinking about when he had aroused the vigilance of his junior sister.
He didn't seem to do anything out of the ordinary.
Ji Baiyi is rarely serious. Seeing the eldest brother's serious look, several fellow disciples of the Ji family ran away.
Looking at their fleeing backs, Ji Baiyi suddenly realized that it might be related to Ji Nanxiao.
His identity is a mystery in the Ji family, and no one knows his true identity.
The mysterious background and unfathomable scheming can indeed easily make people feel wary.
Ji Baiyi was curious, are the twins’ personalities so different?
The junior brother looked carefree and courageous, sometimes showing a mature side, but no one doubted him.
However, the junior sister, after only meeting him a few times, had some doubts about him based on what her brother said.
The smile on Ji Baiyi's face faded.
I hope it doesn't ruin his business.
When Ji Baiyi was lost in thought, Ming Zhao was standing not far from him. When he looked up, he saw his junior sister looking at him with a slight frown on her brows.
"Junior Sister Mingzhao, is there anything wrong?" He put on his gentle smile again.
Ming Zhao has never liked this senior brother. They have no vested interests, so she is too lazy to pay attention to him.
"Nothing, I just think you look so ugly when you smile."
After saying that, Ming Zhao turned and left.
Ji Baiyi watched Ming Zhao leave in silence. He felt that his fellow apprentice sisters had become a little irritable recently.
Maybe it was because the weather was getting hotter, so he had to prepare some cooling tea for his junior sisters to help them cool down.

The Immortal Sect Competition lasted for three days, and finally the thirty strongest disciples were selected.
Among them are Cheng Shuhan and Ji Nanxiao.
After confirming the personnel who would go to Penglai Island to participate in the competition, the elders who would go with them were also confirmed.
As the head of the sect, Ji Qingchen had no time to accompany Cheng Shuhan and Ji Nanxiao to Penglai Island.
Don’t think that they can lead their disciples to participate in the competition in the Western Regions.
But it’s different when you go to Penglai Island.
None of the sect leaders could go there, so they arranged for Ji's second uncle and Lingjizi to be the leading elders to take the disciples to Penglai Island to participate in the competition.
There were four elders accompanying this time, including Yin Tianjiao's father and an elder from the Hehuan Sect.
Among the four elders, only the one from the Hehuan Sect is a woman.
"Elder Hua, I'll leave my daughter in your care." Before leaving the Western Regions, Ji Qingchen kept talking to Elder Hua of the Hehuan Sect.
There are things that men cannot take care of, so female elders are more convenient.
Elder Hua covered his face with his feather fan and smiled, "Don't worry, Sect Leader Ji."
Cheng Shuhan was watching in amazement.
"If I were a man, I would also be attracted to Elder Hua." Every frown and smile of his was seductive. As a woman, Cheng Shuhan was attracted to him.
Not to mention men.
When thinking about this, Cheng Shuhan turned to look at Ji Nanxiao to see what he thought.
Ji Nanxiao was looking at the young woman behind Elder Hua who was also covering her face with a feather fan.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Shuhan followed his gaze and asked curiously.
She wanted to say, you are only twelve years old, your functions are not yet complete, what are you looking at?
Ji Nanxiao retracted his gaze: "I always feel that person is a man."
Doesn't look like a woman.
Cheng Shuhan frowned, then looked at the female disciple from the Hehuan Sect for a few more seconds before saying, "She's a woman, but...she's just taller. Don't discriminate against tomboys."
Hearing this, Ji Nanxiao set his gaze on Cheng Shuhan.
"Tomboy?" He spoke slowly, deliberately lengthening his tone.
I'm afraid no one here knows this word.
How did his sister know?
Cheng Shuhan wanted to slap her mouth, but she couldn't do that.
"Yeah." Cheng Shuhan looked at Ji Nanxiao calmly, as if he didn't notice anything wrong.
"What does tomboy mean?" Ji Nanxiao tested Cheng Shuhan.
Cheng Shuhan blinked twice, then grinned: "She's just a girl who acts like a man."
"Oh... who told you that?" Ji Nanxiao continued to ask.
"Senior Sister Mingzhao." Cheng Shuhan threw Mingzhao out without any guilt.
Ji Nanxiao: "..." Who do you think is stupid?
Doesn't she feel guilty about just throwing Senior Sister Mingzhao out to take the blame?
Cheng Shuhan denied it, and Ji Nanxiao didn't delve into it.
After all, he had long suspected that his sister, like him, had not drunk the Meng Po soup.
The journey to Penglai Island is very long and requires taking a spirit ship.
The spirit ship needs the spiritual energy supply from many monks, and the first to bear the brunt are the elders.
The spirit ship is very large and can accommodate fifty people, but there are very few talented people from the Western Regions in recent years, so the ship is not full.
After several elders took turns inputting spiritual energy into the spirit ship, it was able to travel about half the distance.
"I'll make the elixir, you don't have to do it anymore."
Because many disciples were going to participate in the competition, several elders did not want the disciples to consume too much spiritual energy, so they took turns to fight.
However, the spirit ship consumes too much spiritual energy, and even if the elders practice every day, they cannot reach Penglai Island.
Cheng Shuhan wanted to refine the Yuandan and give it to the elders.
When Ji Nanxiao learned about his sister's thoughts, his first thought was that the ship would be blown up.
It would be better if he did it himself.
"I have refined a ninth-grade Xuan-level pill before. I believe that this time, I can refine a Huiyuan Pill of the Earth-level."
As long as it reaches the Earth level, it will have a very obvious effect on restoring the spiritual energy of several elders.
It was rare for Ji Nanxiao to be so diligent, so Cheng Shuhan didn't argue with him: "Okay, I'll protect you."
The brother and sister took out the medicinal materials needed for Huiyuan Dan from Ji Nanxiao's space ring and began to refine the elixir.
Ji Nanxiao did make a breakthrough in the first batch of pills, but it was not as high as Cheng Shuhan's, only the first grade of earth level.
Even if it is the first grade of the Earth Level, it is enough to satisfy the elders.
But Cheng Shuhan was not satisfied.
As the male protagonist, how could he refine such low-level medicine?
Come again!
So, under Cheng Shuhan's torture, Ji Nanxiao refined five furnaces of pills in one day, from the initial first-grade earth level to the eighth-grade earth level.
