Chapter 487 The Three Greatest Figures in the Ancient Martial Arts World Who Cannot Be Offended [2 Updates]
Even the most skilled ordinary person would die if they faced an ancient martial artist.
The ancient martial arts world does have a judicial hall, but it doesn't interfere in the internal affairs of ancient martial arts families unless necessary.
The Judicial Hall will only take action when there is a major upheaval in the ancient martial arts world or when a large number of ancient martial artists are sent to the outside world.
Ying Zijing is following Wen Fengmian, so she's a member of the Ji family, one of our own. Can't we deal with her?
"Ji Fengmian's daughter?" The Ji family head narrowed his eyes and said indifferently, "Perfect, we can deal with her all at once."
Upon hearing this, Ji Yiyuan was overjoyed.
He never expected that his biggest worry would be eliminated so easily.
Ji Yiyuan was so excited that he didn't even think about how Ji Yihang got into the private room.
He calmed his excitement slightly and said respectfully, "Then, Master, shall I take your guards to their quarters?"
The head of the Ji family nodded: "Tianhao said she's from the entertainment industry. What is the entertainment industry?"
"This..." Ji Yiyuan was stumped by the question. "The entertainment industry is full of people with performing arts talents, and many people praise them. That's about it."
"Oh—" the head of the Ji family said dismissively, "An actor."
There are many stages in the world of ancient martial arts, but no actor has any status.
“No, no, no, Patriarch, she’s not in the entertainment industry,” Ji Yiyuan quickly interjected. “She’s in academia. Several prestigious universities internationally are vying for her. She’s also this year’s top scorer in the college entrance examination. She has a very high IQ, even more impressive than Ji Fengmian back then.”
Therefore, we must eliminate her as soon as possible and prevent Ying Zijin from growing up.
"Top scorer in the college entrance exam? Isn't that just a top scorer in the written exam?" Patriarch Ji lost even more interest. "Isn't assigning you two guard captains enough?"
If he were the top martial arts champion, he might pay more attention.
However, I've heard that the title of "Martial Arts Champion" no longer exists outside of the martial arts world.
Ji Yiyuan was even more delighted: "That's enough, absolutely enough."
The captains of the Ji family's guard team all have over thirty years of experience in ancient martial arts.
Unlike the two martial arts apprentices he sent out last time, who had only just condensed their internal energy.
"Alright." Patriarch Ji waved his hand. "This auction is estimated to last until the day after tomorrow. If you want to leave early, then go back."
"How could I?" Ji Yiyuan said obsequiously. "It's not easy to come to an auction, I'll definitely wait until it's over."
He knew that the Ji family head had said this, but if he agreed, something terrible would definitely happen.
Sure enough, the Ji family head's expression softened considerably: "Tianhao."
Ji Tianhao stepped forward, took a wooden box, and handed it to Ji Yiyuan.
"There's a pill in here that can nourish your vital energy and strengthen your body," the Ji family head said casually. "You're over fifty now, and since you've done so well this time, I'll give you one."
Ji Yiyuan was surprised by such a good thing: "Thank you, Patriarch."
He swallowed the medicine in one gulp and floated downstairs.
**
The auction will start with medicinal herbs, followed by metal minerals, and then some weapons.
After Ying Zijing helped Ji Yihang purchase the medicine he needed, she prepared to leave.
Before leaving, she went to the Ling family's private room.
The Ling family also has several private rooms. This private room is for Ling Chonglou and Jiang Huaping, and Jiang Ran and Ling Mianxi are also in it.
The two cousins are playing cards.
However, there was another woman in the private room.
Wearing a moon-white, long, double-breasted robe, she sat cross-legged on a futon, her eyes slightly closed.
Her appearance was elegant and graceful, like the cool moonlight.
Ying Zijing's gaze paused slightly, and her eyelashes drooped.
There seems to be a sense of familiarity.
"Yingying, let me introduce you." Ling Mianxi's eyes lit up when she saw the girl arrive, and she immediately got up from the ground. "This is my best friend. Her name is Yue Fuyi. She's from the Yue family, and she's better at fighting than me."
Yue Fuyi opened her eyes: "Hello."
"Hello." Ying Zijin nodded slightly, seemingly lost in thought. "I've heard of you. You're very capable."
Yue Fuyi is one of the three most formidable figures among the younger generation in the ancient martial arts world.
The other two are Xie Nian from the Xie family and Lin Qingjia from the Lin family.
Yue Fuyi frowned slightly: "Just an empty reputation."
Jiang Ran's hand trembled, and he whispered to Jiang Huaping, "Mom, is there something wrong with Yue Fuyi? She's always been so unresponsive."
"I can hear you with that little voice." Before Jiang Huaping could speak, Yue Fuyi had already spoken. She gave Jiang Ran a cold look and said, "I like good-looking people."
Ying Zijin: "..."
Ling Mianxi: "..."
Jiang Ran was speechless: "Then why don't you like Lin Qingjia?"
Lin Qingjia is widely recognized as the most beautiful woman in both the ancient medical and martial arts communities.
Jiang Ran admitted that Lin Qingjia was indeed very beautiful.
Until later, Ying Zijin came to Class 19.
Then, he finally broke through the ceiling of his own perception of good looks.
Yue Fuyi remained seated cross-legged in meditation.
She seemed to find the question strange, so her voice wavered slightly: "Is she as good as me? Why would I like someone so much weaker than me?"
Jiang Ran: "..."
He couldn't refute that.
Yue Fuyi's talent in ancient martial arts can be said to be the highest among the three generations of the Lin, Xie, and Yue families.
She specializes in ancient martial arts, and her skill level is indeed higher than Lin Qingjia's.
In terms of pure ancient martial arts, Lin Qingjia is slightly weaker than Ling Mianxi.
Jiang Ran squatted to the side with a dark face, feeling inexplicably aggrieved.
grass.
What kind of perverts did Ling Mianxi get to know?
He was a grown man, yet he ended up being the weakest.
"You brat." Ling Chonglou was both amused and exasperated. "The Judicial Hall's assessment is about to begin. Once you're in, your cultivation will improve rapidly."
Admittedly, the level of skill in ancient martial arts depends on the amount of time spent practicing.
But time doesn't tell the whole story.
Some people with high talent can cultivate for several years and gain decades of cultivation.
Yue Fuyi is one of them.
However, because the Yue family has always kept a low profile, Yue Fuyi doesn't go to the arena to fight to the death like Xie Nian of the Xie family every day to make a name for herself.
Even Ling Mianxi didn't know just how strong Yue Fuyi really was.
Many people want to enter the Judicial Hall because it has a training ground that helps ancient martial artists improve their skills.
Jiang Huaping sighed: "It's my fault. I don't have the talent for ancient martial arts, which has lowered your level."
"No way." Jiang Ran was very touched. "Mom, you've given me back your beauty."
He was not only the school bully at Qingzhi, but also the school heartthrob.
However, after Ying Zijin arrived, he fell out of favor.
Those girls who came to Class 19 were all there to see Ying Zijing.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Huaping looked Jiang Ran up and down: "Chonglou, we don't seem to have a son yet, do we?"
Ling Chonglou nodded: "Yes, where did this kid come from?"
Jiang Ran: "..."
"I'll take my dad home first." Ying Zijin chatted with Yue Fuyi and Ling Mianxi for a bit. "By the time I get back, the auction will be over, and then we'll go to the Ling family."
"You're going outside? Me too, I want to go too!" Ling Mianxi's eyes brightened even more. "I haven't seen my silly, straight man in so long."
Beside her, Yue Fuyi smoothed her sleeves and stood up: "I haven't been out for a long time. I'll go with you. I want to eat strawberry ice cream."
Yue Fuyi really didn't like going outside; when she did, it was only to find food.
The variety of food in the ancient martial arts world is too limited compared to the outside world.
"Then I—" Jiang Ran opened his mouth, but before he could finish speaking, Yue Fuyi and Ling Mianxi both glanced at him.
He immediately shut up.
Well, women are not to be trifled with.
He considered these to be the three most formidable figures in the ancient martial arts world.
“That works too.” Ying Zijin nodded. “It’s only nine o’clock now. A new food street has opened in the capital. Let’s go check it out.”
The three of them went out together.
Jiang Ran became even more withdrawn: "Dad, when does the Judicial Hall assessment start?"
"It's the end of the year," Ling Chonglou said. "You need to be careful. Everyone participating in this assessment is very strong. Dad doesn't want you to be too strong. Safety first."
Jiang Ran nodded: "I understand."
After Ling Chonglou finished speaking, he continued watching the auction and bid on several items.
**
On the other side.
Inside the private room of Yulouchun.
An Roujin was still somewhat unsettled because of Wen Fengmian's sudden appearance.
Although she was the matriarch of the Lin family, she actually had no real power and very little money at her disposal.
It's already past the second day, and it's late at night.
By this point in the auction, the starting bids had never fallen below five million, and the items were all things needed by ancient doctors and martial artists, so they were of little use to her.
An Roujin decided to go back to the Lin family. After wiping her mouth, she called to the guard beside her, "Let's go."
As she walked out the door, she bumped into Ji Tianhao, who was coming out of the Ji family's private room.
Upon seeing her, Ji Tianhao bowed again: "I must thank Madam Lin for her guidance."
An Roujin seemed taken aback: "What did I teach you?"
Ji Tianhao naturally wouldn't reveal in public that he intended to forcibly take Ying Zijing away; he simply said, "I just want to thank Madam Lin, that's all."
"Look at you." An Roujin smiled. "You're too kind. I'm not feeling well, so I'll be going now."
Ji Tianhao was just being polite; he had more important things to do.
News came from the Ji family in the capital that Ying Zijing was in the villa she had been assigned.
They are going to bring people along.
An Roujin glanced at Ji Tianhao out of the corner of her eye, then covered her slightly upturned lips with her handkerchief.
This is a matter for the Ji family.
It has absolutely nothing to do with her.
She wouldn't be foolish enough to show her face and give others leverage against her.
The Ji family has always been ruthless, especially when it comes to women.
If they take a fancy to someone, they'll snatch them away, only to end up leaving them half-dead.
An Roujin remembered that Wen Fengmian was also greatly affected after Wen Tinglan's condition worsened.
What will happen this time?
