Chapter 39 Bring your sister-in-law next time
Ji Wenyi praised: "The Immortal has excellent swordsmanship."
Xiao Chujing also smiled and responded: "Daoyou, your magical powers are unparalleled."
Although the two had never met before, they had a natural understanding like old friends, coordinating their attacks seamlessly, and after a fight, they had already developed a mutual respect for each other.
Later, Ji Wenyi's subordinates came to rescue him. The two fought and retreated, and finally broke out of the encirclement of the demons.
Willows are swaying, and the bright moon is shining on the lake.
Xiao Chujing and Ji Wenyi sat on the roof drinking.
Xiao Chujing has a dark complexion, deep facial features, and is unruly and evil, giving him an aggressive and handsome look.
Ji Wenyi has a light complexion, soft facial features, gentle and elegant demeanor, and exudes a relaxed aura of royalty.
The two sat together, the red rose and the white rose, each with its own charm.
Everyone who sees it will praise it, saying, "What a beautiful picture of two girls under the moon."
"I am Xiao Chujing, a disciple of the Qingzheng Sect."
Ji Wenyi did not hide his identity, "The Crown Prince of the Great Dynasty, Ji Wenyi."
"Nice to meet you."
The two of them have similar personalities and feel that they met too late.
After drinking a pot of wine, they regarded each other as their best friends in life.
"The imperial dynasty is in the northern border, tens of thousands of miles away from the Burning Heaven Continent. Brother Ji, why have you come all the way to Yongzhou City?"
Xiao Chujing leaned against the roof, bent one of his long legs in a wild and unrestrained manner, and shook the wine jug with his hand on his knee, and asked directly.
Ji Wenyi raised his head and took a sip of wine, "I came here to find something."
"The imperial seal of our dynasty has been stolen. According to spies, the seal was last seen in Yongzhou City."
Xiao Chu finally understood, "I see. Today, you and I met at the Demon Clan's base..."
Ji Wenyi continued, "It's also because I received intelligence that the demons intend to use the jade seal to sacrifice the entire city."
"Unfortunately, I have searched all four of the Demon Clan's formations, but have found no trace of the Jade Seal."
Xiao Chujing smiled and said, "I do have a clue."
He told Ji Wenyi that the jade seal was in the hands of the deputy city lord.
Ji Wenyi pondered, "I am on a secret visit this time. If I were to rob and kill the deputy city lord directly, it would make too much noise and my identity would be exposed."
Xiao Chujing said, "I'm currently living in the City Lord's Mansion, so I can move around easily. If you trust me, I'm willing to help you get the jade seal back."
Ji Wenyi was delighted: "That's great."
In return for the favor, he generously promised, "You just said that the Qingzheng Sect is secretly contacting the righteous path, hoping to destroy the sacrificial array before the demons massacre the city."
"When the time comes, I will lend you a hand."
Xiao Chujing laughed heartily and clinked his wine jug with Ji Wenyi, "Good brother."
Ji Wenyi lowered his head and drank alone.
Seeing that he was not in high spirits, Xiao Chujing asked, "Are you worried about something else?"
Ji Wenyi smiled gently, his eyes filled with cold frost and sword rain, "Well, I am grieving for a woman."
The word "sadness" sounds so cruel and sinister.
He didn't want to say more and changed the subject, "Brother Xiao looks so happy, it seems that you have a woman?"
Xiao Chujing touched the tip of his nose a little embarrassedly, "Is it obvious?"
Ji Wenyi: "We've only been drinking for a while, and you've already said three times in a row, 'There's someone waiting at home, I need to go back quickly.'"
Xiao Chujing smiled and poured Ji Wenyi a cup of wine. "My junior sister doesn't like me drinking outside."
His tone couldn't help but show off, as if he was very happy to be under someone's control.
Ji Wenyi was rarely interested. "What kind of person is your woman?"
Xiao Chujing said tenderly: "She is very beautiful, honest and dull, the best woman in the world."
Ji Wenyi didn't expect Xiao Chujing to like this kind of homely type, so he asked casually, "What's her background like?"
Xiao Chujing: "Just like me, an ordinary person."
"Brother Xiao, how can you be an ordinary person? You are a hidden dragon in the abyss, and your future is limitless."
Ji Wenyi grew up in an environment that emphasized noble bloodlines, where nobles only married with nobles.
Influenced by their surroundings, they naturally acquire the arrogance of the upper class.
He was thinking about Xiao Chujing's partner, who was just a female cultivator from a low-class background - a woman of low status who could be a concubine or a cauldron, but there was no need to marry her as his wife.
Ji Wenyi hinted to Xiao Chujing: "There's no need to decide on marriage too soon. Maybe your soulmate is someone else."
Lao Gui also said something similar, but Xiao Chujing didn't like to hear it.
He laughed, stood up and said goodbye: "I have to go home quickly, there are people waiting for me."
Just then, Ji Wenyi's guard knelt down at the foot of the house and reported:
"Your Highness, we have captured several female cultivators who meet the requirements."
Ji Wenyi was in a hurry to confirm, so he didn't try to persuade Xiao Chujing to drink anymore.
They added contact information using a magic tool for transmitting sound.
Ji Wenyi said, "After this matter is settled, I will host a banquet to thank you. You can bring your sister-in-law with you and we will meet again."
Xiao Chujing agreed immediately, "No problem."
The city lord’s birthday arrived as scheduled.
The City Lord’s Mansion held a grand banquet for monks from all over the world.
As one of the monks who came to celebrate the birthday, Ye Xiaoman followed the last member of the Qingzheng Sect team and walked into the banquet venue with the eldest brother and others.
The eldest brother presented a gift to the city lord on behalf of the sect.
The city lord was a kind old man with gray hair. He smiled and asked his men to present gifts in return.
Each monk received a nice little gift.
While the senior brothers and sisters in front were chatting with others and no one noticed, Xiao Chujing scratched Ye Xiaoman's palm with his fingertips.
Ye Xiaoman glanced at Xiao Chujing from the corner of her eyes.
Didn't I just agree to have some contact with him? Why does he act like he's in love every day?
Not only would he come up to me and cling to me intentionally or unintentionally while walking, he would also try to hold my hand from time to time.
No matter where she was, as long as she turned her head, he would be staring at her.
In Xiao Chujing's eyes, the junior sister with almond-shaped eyes and rosy cheeks glared at him with a look of both anger and shame.
She was clearly flirting with him with her eyes.
My heart feels even sweeter.
Seeing that most people had arrived, the city lord announced.
"Everyone, please take a seat."
The process of a birthday party is similar everywhere. It is nothing more than the city lord standing on a high platform and giving a speech, saying some nonsense like thanking everyone for their support, and then the monks come forward to wish him a happy birthday.
Younger people like Ye Xiaoman are responsible for eating and drinking downstairs.
As a prominent figure in the city, the deputy city lord would naturally accompany the city lord to such grand occasions.
While the city lord was giving a speech, he stood at the bottom with his head held high and his chest puffed out.
Ye Xiaoman saw that his hands were always hidden in his sleeves, and wondered if he was holding the jade seal in his palm, and would activate the sacrificial formation when he received the secret signal from the demons.
As someone involved in the situation, she appears to be calm as a rock, but she is actually a little nervous.
The city lord's speech ended with a righteous statement.
"From now on, we in Yongzhou City will continue to unite all parties, eliminate the demons, and protect the peace and tranquility of the human world."
"It is our duty to strike back at the remnants of the demon clan." The deputy city lord agreed seriously, raising his glass.
The monks all stood up and raised their glasses in unison, "Long live the City Lord."
In the joyful atmosphere, there was an abrupt sound that seemed particularly annoying.
"Mr. Deputy City Lord, are you really willing to share my life in the human world?"
