The night is slightly cool.
The silver moon was hidden in the thick clouds, and darkness enveloped every corner of the Desolate State. In the major families in the prosperous main city, the candlelight was dim and barely visible.
It is located at the most remote end of the main city, but the buildings are the most magnificent.
The Shen family's house was brightly lit, bustling with people and extremely lively.
After Shen Mojin gently helped Chi Jiujiu tie her hair, he took a Qi-replenishing pill at her strong request to remove the ambiguous teeth marks on her neck that she had bitten.
The inn is not far from the Shen family.
Shen Mojin flew with Chi Jiujiu on a sword.
Chi Jiujiu has now overcome her fear of heights. Not only that, she actually enjoys the thrill of flying with a sword.
She thought.
This should be more exciting than riding a roller coaster.
It took less than a quarter of an hour to fly from Yunlai Inn to the Shen family's territory on a sword.
"Ajin, are we there yet?" Chi Jiujiu gently jumped off the phantom eagle and asked sweetly as she looked at the tall and antique gate of the house in front of her.
The architectural style here is somewhat similar to ancient architecture, but it has a bit more charm.
Most of the ancient buildings are made of mahogany carved beams and painted pillars.
The Shen family uses black lightning-struck wood as the main building material. The carvings on the buildings are actually some ancient formation runes, which have the miraculous effect of concentrating the mind and gathering energy.
"We're here." Shen Mojin put away the phantom eagle, reached out and held the hand of a beautiful woman in a fairy-grade white feather dress, and walked in calmly.
Chi Jiujiu is 1.67 meters tall, which is not short among modern women.
Next to the tall Shen Mojin, who is 1.9 meters tall, she looks particularly petite and lovely.
A slightly cold, mature and steady temperament.
One is pretty and beautiful.
Standing together, they feel inexplicably harmonious.
After the two entered through the Shen family's gate, they first arrived at the spacious courtyard.
Continue forward along the winding corridor.
The journey was accompanied by candlelight, and occasionally servants were seen busying about, not knowing what they were preparing. When they saw him and the beauty, they stopped and bowed.
"Sixth Master is well, Sixth Madam is well."
Shen Mojin nodded slightly.
Chi Jiujiu felt a little shy inside, but she didn't show it on her face. She gave a faint smile to the person who saluted her.
The beautiful lady pulled her and continued walking inside.
He brought her to the gate of the tallest courtyard among the many buildings.
On the gate plaque of the courtyard were inscribed the three large characters "Master's Mansion" with dragons and phoenixes dancing in the air.
The beautiful lady took out a dragon-shaped jade pendant from her storage ring and pressed it on the barrier that she could not see. The barrier of the tallest building in the courtyard was quickly broken.
The two walked forward and within two seconds of entering the courtyard, a black and gold door slowly opened.
The current head of the Shen family.
Shen Zhai.
Walked out.
Chi Jiujiu looked at the man who looked 70% similar to the beauty. He was wearing a white robe with gold edges and embroidered with ink paintings of mountains and rivers. He had a smile on his face and looked as gentle as jade.
If you look closely, you can see that he exudes a subtle majesty.
This must be the beauty’s elder brother, right?
It's very pleasing at first glance.
Very friendly.
The second glance makes people feel a little scared and dare not underestimate it.
"Brother." Shen Mojin saw Shen Zhai, his black eyes smiled, and he called out clearly.
"It's been more than 20 years. It's great to have Ajin back. This must be my sister-in-law. Seeing is believing. Thank you for taking care of Ajin all these years." When Chen Zhai saw his younger brother standing in the yard holding the hand of a beautiful woman with bright eyes and white teeth, the smile on his face grew from three points to seven points.
"Hello, big brother. I don't deserve your care, but Ajin has taken good care of me." Chi Jiujiu smiled and greeted Chen Zhai in a graceful manner.
Shen Zhai smiled gently and said, "Sister-in-law, Ajin, please come in."
Chi Jiujiu and Shen Mojin followed Shen Zhai into the house and sat down. There were many furnishings inside, most of which she didn't recognize.
"According to Ajin, my sister-in-law is not from this world?"
Chen Zhai sat opposite the two of them, brewing and pouring tea smoothly, then handed it to Chi Jiujiu. He glanced at the sandy golden curly hair on Chi Jiujiu's head, which was tied up with a white jade phoenix hairpin, and asked in a clear and gentle manner.
Chi Jiujiu sat next to Shen Mojin and replied with a smile, "That's true."
Chen Zhai concealed his surprise. In fact, more than 20 years ago, A Jin had told him that his Dantian had recovered because he met a benefactor from the "upper realm" who helped him.
He was shocked at first, but also happy for Ajin.
No further questions.
Now this benefactor.
According to what Ajin said in the letter, she was about to become his brother's wife. He looked at this "fairy" but did not detect any spiritual fluctuations from her.
Could it be that his current cultivation level is not enough?
Can't detect anything?
"This is the gift that big brother prepared for my sister-in-law. I hope you won't dislike it." Chen Zhai took out a phoenix-shaped jade pendant from the jade box and handed it to Chi Jiujiu.
Chi Jiujiu looked at the exquisite jade pendant in Shen Zhai's hand.
For a moment I didn’t know whether I should accept it.
"Jiujiu, take this. This is the Shen family's jade pendant. With this jade pendant, you can enter and exit most areas of the Shen family at will. You can enjoy the highest treatment and unconditional protection of the Shen family inn and other industries outside." Shen Mojin on the side spoke in a low voice, his black eyes looking at Chi Jiujiu's little face.
Chi Jiujiu took it and said sweetly, "Thank you, brother."
"You don't have to thank me, sister-in-law. This is prepared for the daughter-in-law of the Shen family's direct lineage. Now there are only me and Ajin in the direct lineage." Shen Zhai looked at Chi Jiujiu and said, "Now that sister-in-law is accompanying Ajin, big brother is very relieved."
People who practice Taoism have long lives.
Very few can become Taoist companions.
