A man was drinking tea in the courtyard, his eyes fixed on the sky, as if he were pondering something.
This person was Yan Yu, whom Qi Zhenhao had mentioned.
Suddenly, a black dot appeared in his field of vision. As the dot drew closer, it turned out to be a black vulture.
The vulture flew at a steady pace, and people around Yan Yu immediately stepped forward to try to stop it.
Yan Yu said calmly, "Let it come here." His voice was deep and magnetic, and the maid beside him stopped and blushed unconsciously.
The vulture slowly descended and landed on the ground.
Then the vulture turned into a puff of white smoke with a "poof," leaving only a box behind.
Yan Yu said with great interest, "This is an interesting mode of transportation. Let's go see what it is."
Someone immediately went up to check the box.
"Young master, there is a letter. It is signed by a member of the Qi family."
The man raised an eyebrow and said to the person beside him, "Let me see it. It wasn't written by that idiot Qi Zhenhao, was it?"
...
Three days later.
"Young Master Heng, there is a letter for you."
Qi Zhiheng took the letter from the servant; it was signed by the Yan family.
Yang Yitian stepped forward and asked, "How is it? Has the matter been resolved?"
Qi Zhiheng nodded: "It's resolved. The other party said they won't pursue this matter any further."
Island.
tide.
group.
Team.
"What did you write in your letter to him?" Yang Yitian asked curiously.
"I wrote that the Qi family was indeed in the wrong regarding Qin Nianzhu's matter, but since the matter was already settled, I hoped he would not pursue it any further. I also sent him some top-grade Cleansing Pills as an apology." Qi Zhiheng put away the letter. "Let's go. Let's tell Father that we should return to Yuansheng Academy."
Yang Yitian followed behind Qi Zhiheng, finding it hard to believe that the matter had been resolved so quickly.
After learning that the matter had been resolved, Yang Yao nodded hurriedly and said, "It's good that the matter has been resolved. You really worked hard this time, Zhiheng."
Qi Zhiheng waved his hand: "We're family, no need for formalities. Grandma, I'll be back in a bit. You all cultivate diligently and try to produce more Spirit Venerables in our family."
Yang Yao chuckled and said, "You're dreaming, but I think your great-grandfather is on the verge of a breakthrough. Maybe our family will have another Spirit Venerable in a while."
At this moment, only Yang Yao, Qi Dong, Qi Zhenhe and Qiu Yurong were present. Qi Zhiheng said frankly, "This is not something I should say, but one should always be wary of others. Although Miss Qin is my uncle's sweetheart, it is still uncertain whether she will marry into the Qi family. We should still be on guard."
Yang Yao nodded and promised, "Grandma understands, and won't let anyone in the family be confused."
Aside from being initially excited to meet her youngest son's future wife, Yang Yao's enthusiasm waned considerably afterward.
Moreover, the family members have all made a pact with themselves. Whenever someone unconsciously thinks about revealing family secrets, their mind will be instantly blanked out, thus reminding their family members not to expose their secrets.
After finishing their business here, Qi Zhiheng and Yang Yitian returned to Yuansheng Academy.
Qi Zhiheng began inquiring about the medicinal materials for the Da Fu Shen Dan.
The discussion among the inner court disciples of the same year as Qi Zhiheng had already cooled down, but the girls from the Gemini group couldn't resist their interest in these matters.
The most talked-about topic among them was Qi Zhiheng's fear of his wife. Indeed, this matter had already spread from the disciples of the Heroes Ranking to the outer courtyard. For a time, every girl in the Source Academy envied Yang Yitian.
Having Qi Zhiheng as a husband is really great!
Not only do they have elixirs to eat and crystal flowers to use, but they also have talismans to draw upon. Now we also know that Qi Zhiheng is afraid of his wife! His image as a good man has skyrocketed.
Yang Yiqian heard these things everywhere she went, and she felt terrible. Although Ji Qiuhan was not bad, she couldn't feel good about it compared to her ex-fiancé.
"Brother Han, you're amazing! You've advanced to a Spirit Master so quickly. I'm sure you'll stand out in the next Heroes Ranking. Qi Zhiheng, who's at the bottom, won't stand a chance against you." A clear male voice rang in Yang Yiqian's ears, and she unconsciously frowned. She looked at the two people chatting happily beside her.
Ji Qiuhan said with some regret, "It's also because the master notified us too hastily. If we had made some preparations beforehand, I might have participated in the preliminary ranking of this year's Heroes List. It's a pity. We'll have to wait another three years."
Standing next to Ji Qiuhan was a Shuang'er named Wu Qingyang, the young master of the Wu family in the imperial city.
The Wu family's power was not as great as the Ji family's, and Wu Qingyang was just a son of a concubine.
Wu Qingyang is fair-skinned and well-behaved, and her eyebrows and eyes even bear a slight resemblance to Yang Yiqian.
Yang Yiqian's displeasure was evident on her face; no one would be happy to see someone flirting with their fiancé right in front of them.
She hasn't even married Ji Qiuhan yet, and these twin girls are already crowding around her. It's really annoying.
Originally, Wu Qingyang was only a disciple of Class C. However, recently, due to the increased sales of the Cleansing Pill, Wu Qingyang solved a significant problem and defeated a disciple of Class A, taking his place.
Ji Qiuhan noticed the displeasure on Yang Yiqian's face and, after returning home, sneaked into Yang Yiqian's room.
Yang Yiqian said unhappily, "What are you doing following me in? Are you going to find your dear little brother?"
Ji Qiuhan hugged her from behind and whispered in her ear, "Why are you jealous? Didn't I tell you, it's a family friendship, I can't ignore him."
"A family friendship?" Yang Yiqian glanced at him. "Don't think I don't know. The Ji family is much more powerful than the Wu family. How can an unequal relationship be called a family friendship?"
Ji Qiuhan calmly explained, "The Ji family's power has only been around for the last hundred years. My grandfather's generation had a very deep relationship with the Wu family. I can't look down on my grandfather's brothers' grandsons just because the Ji family is now thriving, can I?"
Yang Yiqian remained silent.
Ji Qiuhan picked him up and said, "I know you're uneasy, and I'm uneasy too. Why don't we get married soon?"
"You want to marry me?" Yang Yiqian's mood finally improved a bit.
“That’s right, we’re already engaged, so marriage is just a matter of time. How about a month from now?” Ji Qiuhan said gently in her ear. “As long as you agree, I’ll start making wedding arrangements right away.”
Yang Yiqian finally smiled and said, "Then I'll listen to you."
"Alright, I'll inform them of the increased severity tomorrow morning, and also send a message to the Yang family." Having appeased him, Ji Qiuhan scooped him up and pulled him into the bed curtains...
Qi Zhiheng and Yang Yitian returned to Yuansheng Academy for two days. Their original house in the inner courtyard had been taken back, and they moved into the new courtyard. Yesterday, they visited Sheng Mingyue and learned about the tasks and scoring system of the Heroes Ranking. The two were chatting casually at the moment.
"I heard from people outside that Yang Yiqian is going to marry Ji Qiuhan." Yang Yitian secretly glanced at Qi Zhiheng, wanting to see his reaction.
Qi Zhiheng said calmly, "So what if they get married? Why are you looking at me like that? They're already engaged, isn't it normal for them to get married?"
"Do you have any particular feelings?" Yang Yitian pressed, "Aren't you jealous that your ex-fiancée got married?"
Qi Zhiheng rolled his eyes at him: "With looks like that, what do I have to be jealous of?"
Yang Yitian unconsciously curled the corners of his mouth and teased, "You've changed. You weren't this obsessed with looks before."
Qi Zhiheng: "..." Who is responsible for him becoming like this?
Seeing Yang Yitian's smiling eyes crinkling, she couldn't help but reach out and tug at his cheek: "You seem to have gained weight."
Yang Yitian rubbed his cheeks: "I call this roundness, not fat! Being plump and fair is good, isn't it?" Didn't plumpness used to be considered beautiful?
Qi Zhiheng stood up: "Let's go to the mission hall and see if there are any missions related to spiritual herbs. Maybe we can find one or two spiritual herbs that we need."
The two went out and headed towards the Mission Hall. Flying artifacts and magical implements were not allowed within the Yuansheng Academy.
On their journey, they passed a secluded spot, and both of them, with their keen senses, quickly heard discordant sounds.
Yang Yitian found it incredibly exciting! He secretly transmitted his thoughts, "I didn't expect the atmosphere in the Source Academy to be so open! Look at you, you're completely out of place!"
Qi Zhiheng rolled his eyes and transmitted his voice, "Mind your own business, let's go."
Yang Yitian stuck out his tongue sheepishly.
"Hmm—Brother Han, who do you think tastes better, me or that girl Yang Yiqian?"
"Of course it's you. How could that woman's looks and figure compare to yours?"
Qi Zhiheng paused, this was actually Ji Qiuhan?
Yang Yitian sensed the gossip and transmitted his voice, "This is so exciting! Ji Qiuhan is about to marry Yang Yiqian, but I didn't expect her to be having an affair with another woman here!"
Qi Zhiheng: "..." What else could he say?
"Then don't marry her, marry me instead?"
"Don't worry, I'll marry you, my little vixen, very soon." Ji Qiuhan continued his actions. Compared to women, he still preferred Shuang'er. If it weren't for Yang Yiqian's special physique, which was perfectly compatible with their Ji family's cultivation method, he would never have been interested in Yang Yiqian.
Qi Zhiheng pulled the excited Yang Yitian away from where they stood.
Yang Yitian was somewhat dissatisfied that there was no more gossip to read.
Yang Yitian said with great distress, "Such a delicious melon, and you won't let me eat it?"
Qi Zhiheng said calmly, "Mind your own business, lest you get yourself into trouble."
"How can that be the same? Your ex-fiancée who abandoned you is now having an affair with another man! Don't you feel great? Don't you feel a sense of satisfaction, like you've gotten your revenge?" Yang Yitian continued with an righteous expression, "What goes around comes around!"
Qi Zhiheng pulled his head close and buried his face in his chest: "That's enough, we're almost at the mission hall."
They dragged the person's head into the mission hall.
Yang Yitian finally managed to break free from Qi Zhiheng's chest-burying attack and quickly tidied his hair, which had been messed up from playing around.
