Chapter 489 The Ji Family, How Daring! [2 Updates]
He had timed it perfectly before coming up to the private room from downstairs, waiting specifically for this moment, and hadn't dared to sleep.
The Ji family head's attention was still on the auction. After hearing this, he simply waved his hand absentmindedly and said, "Go."
After receiving permission, Ji Yiyuan got up and walked to the door.
He opened the door, but before he could even show any excitement, he was hit squarely by three bodies.
Ji Yiyuan's physique was nowhere near that of an ancient martial artist; he was always overweight and was directly pressed to the ground, letting out a miserable scream.
Upon seeing Ji Tianhao and the two guard captains covered in blood, the Ji family head's gaze turned cold, filled with extreme anger: "Who dares to act presumptuously in the Ji family?"
The woman lifted the curtain and went inside, a sword hanging at her waist, just like an ancient knight-errant.
Her eyes were icy cold: "The Ji family, how dare they."
When the Ji family head, his wife, and several guards saw the newcomers, their expressions changed instantly.
The moon brushes against my clothes!
"Miss Fuyi!" The head of the Ji family stood up instantly, his body trembling slightly, and his attitude changed immediately. "Miss Fuyi, what do you mean by this? What did they do to offend you? I apologize to you."
Ji Tianhao is not the son of the Ji family head, but his nephew.
At twenty-four years old, he already possesses fifteen years of ancient martial arts cultivation, which is considered outstanding within the Ji family.
Therefore, he would fulfill any request Ji Tianhao made.
"You're not so bad as to offend me." Yue Fuyi's gaze swept coldly over them. "In the middle of the night, you went to kidnap innocent people and I caught you in the act."
The Ji family head's mind went blank for a moment: "Kidnapping innocent civilians? Miss Fuyi, how could the Ji family do such a thing?"
"Still dare to be stubborn." Yue Fuyi's eyebrows turned cold. "Am I blind? Right here in your Ji family's villa district in the capital, you, a member of the family, still say you want to enjoy the blessings of having multiple wives."
The head of the Ji family finally realized what was happening and opened his mouth, "Miss Fuyi, are you talking about our branch family? We're family, how can you kidnap us? Besides—"
Before he could finish speaking, Yue Fuyi grabbed his throat.
The guards dared not approach.
They were never as skilled as Yue Fuyi.
This ancient speaking style left Ji Yiyuan feeling dizzy and confused.
He lay on the ground, mostly terrified.
Given Ji Yiyuan's status, he was naturally not qualified to know about the power structure of the ancient martial arts world.
He had never even heard of Yue Fuyi's name.
But judging from the Ji family head's behavior, even if Ji Yiyuan is stupid, he knows he's going to be in trouble.
The head of the Ji family never expected that Ji Tianhao was simply kidnapping a few beauties as usual, and that the kidnappers were members of the Ji family, and that Yue Fuyi just happened to stumble upon it.
Who doesn't know that Yue Fuyi detests this kind of thing the most?
Even those lecherous men in the Lin family, Yue Fuyi dared to deal with them, let alone the Ji family.
What a coincidence!
Patriarch Ji broke out in a cold sweat: "It's a misunderstanding, it really is a misunderstanding, Miss Fuyi. Tianhao was just trying to get something out of us. The people he went to were members of the Ji family. There was absolutely no kidnapping involved."
“It is because the elders have not taught me well that I dare to be so presumptuous.” Yue Fuyi lifted the Ji family head up with one hand and raised him directly. “I can deal with a family head like you, and your ancestors and elders will not hold it against me.”
Even in the Lin family, the head of the family can be changed at will, as long as there is a suitable candidate.
The true strength of a family lies in its ancestors who have retreated to the background.
Ancient martial artists have an average lifespan of three hundred years, and each of them has a cultivation level of over one hundred years.
Unless it's a matter of life and death for the family, the ancestors won't come out.
Although the Ji family is only a medium-sized family, it is much stronger than the Yu family that they dealt with before, and their ancestor was also more powerful.
Yue Fuyi is the top expert among the younger generation, but she is far from being considered among the best in the entire ancient martial arts world.
Time doesn't tell the whole story, but it's definitely a major flaw.
Before the Ji family head could even speak, Yue Fuyi threw him off the second floor.
The sudden falling object left the guests on the first floor stunned, and even the auctioneer was taken aback.
Ying Zijing and Ling Mianxi had just returned when they witnessed this scene.
Ling Mianxi: "Wow."
Ying Zijing looked down and saw the Ji family head lying in front of the auction stage, his limbs twisted together, his expression one of pain.
She raised an eyebrow: "Dislocating tendons and bones technique?"
The art of dislocating tendons and bones is an ancient martial art that also exists in modern grappling techniques.
This is the most basic move in ancient martial arts, but the injury will be more severe when it is performed using internal energy.
The head of the Ji family was over fifty years old, which was considered young among ancient martial arts practitioners.
But Yue Fuyi used ruthless methods, and the head of the Ji family was essentially crippled.
Ling Mianxi didn't care about the life or death of the Ji family head. She was a little curious and turned her head: "Yingying, why are you disguised? And dressed as a man?"
Ying Zijin said indifferently, "Troublesome."
She wasn't afraid of herself, but of the people around her.
Having a different appearance makes it easier to fight in the world of ancient martial arts.
Ling Mianxi's expression turned serious: "It's troublesome."
Another reason she wouldn't go to a life-or-death battle was that the Ling family wasn't as strong as the Lin, Xie, and Yue families in the ancient martial arts world.
If she really clashes with these three families, the Ling family can't protect her, so she will restrain herself and not cause trouble for the Ling family.
For example, some of the Xie family's ancestors would directly kill some of the family's geniuses.
If they are killed, those families, being weaker than the Xie family, won't be able to pursue the matter further.
There's nothing we can do about it; the world of ancient martial arts is inherently a dog-eat-dog world.
The entire auction building was silent.
"I apologize for disturbing you all." Yue Fuyi lightly touched the ground with her toes and jumped down from the second floor. "Please continue."
After saying that, she left the auction house with the sword in her arms.
It took a full five minutes for the guests to come to their senses, and they were all quite excited.
"Miss Fuyi?!"
"Miss Fuyi, my goddess."
"Your goddess isn't Miss Qingjia? She's changed?"
"No, no, no, Miss Qingjia is still the best."
Such a commotion was naturally heard by the families upstairs.
"Yue Fuyi actually came to participate in the auction?" The Third Elder was taken aback, his expression showing apprehension.
Yue Fuyi's position in the Yue family is the same as Lin Qingjia's position in the Lin family.
Because of her exceptional talent, many people wanted to kill her.
Nearby, Lin Qingjia had already obtained the Bone-Growing Pill and was studying it.
This bone-regenerating pill is clearly a medicine from a hundred years ago. It's as hard as a rock, and it won't be easy to fully analyze its components.
Lin Qingjia twirled the Bone-Regenerating Pill in her hand, and after a while, her eyes began to wander again.
The Third Elder noticed and frowned, quite worried: "Qingjia, what happened to you today? Why are you so lost in thought?"
"Ah, no." Lin Qingjia paused for a moment, then smiled. "I'm sorry, I've been working too hard lately. Please forgive me, Third Elder."
"If you're tired, go and rest more." The Third Elder nodded, very pleased. "You've been going to the ancient medical community these past few days to teach them how to make medicine, which has certainly taken a toll on you."
Lin Qingjia is loved by people of all ages because she is kind and down-to-earth.
As a doctor, I never ask for anything.
If you seek her treatment, she will save you if she has the time.
It was also because Lin Qingjia saved many people that the Lin family recruited many powerful retainers, which allowed them to temporarily overpower the Xie and Yue families.
There were indeed no more items she needed for the auction, so Lin Qingjia stood up, clasped her hands in a fist salute, and said, "Then I'll be leaving now."
The Third Elder nodded: "You're not feeling well, have the guards escort you."
Lin Qingjia nodded, put away the Bone-Regenerating Pill, and left the private room.
After taking a few steps, her gaze paused, and she stopped for a few seconds.
The guard asked in confusion, "Miss Qingjia?"
"I misread it." Lin Qingjia looked away. "Let's go."
**
The candlelight flickered in the red-lacquered private room.
Fu Yunshen took Ying Zijin from him.
"It's getting chilly in the ancient martial arts world." He picked up a cloak. "Don't catch a cold."
Ying Zijing let him wrap the cloak around her, lazily saying, "Do you even believe what you're saying when you say it yourself?"
If ancient martial arts practitioners could be affected by this temperature, they wouldn't need to cultivate.
"I'm used to it." Fu Yunshen patted her head and smiled. "No matter how amazing you are, I'll still spoil you, won't I, little one?"
Ying Zijing thought for a moment, then suddenly asked, "What is your cultivation level?"
"Hmm?" Fu Yunshen looked up. "It's been a long time since we tested it. It's been a hundred years."
Ying Zijin leaned back in her chair and remained silent.
Her current cultivation level is indeed too low, unlike before.
However, it's already quite fast that it has recovered to this level in just a year and a half.
Fu Yunshen turned his head, raising an eyebrow: "Yaoyao, what kind of look is that? Did I offend you?"
"I hate the rich."
"..."
OK.
Yunshan tried his best to cover his mouth and asked Yunwu in a low voice, "Third brother, can you teach me how to hold back my laughter?"
His stomach was cramping.
Yunwu said with a blank face, "Second brother, you can have Miss Ying sever the nerves in your face, then you won't feel anything."
Yunshan: "..."
That's too cruel. Let's pretend he didn't ask.
Fu Yunshen simply smiled: "Still want to look?"
Ying Zijing shook her head: "I'm not watching anymore, it's boring."
"Okay, let's go then." Fu Yunshen changed his clothes, and after leaving the private room, he took off his mask and reverted to being the dashing and dissolute young master.
There was no fluctuation in its body, and it seemed harmless to livestock.
The two went downstairs.
Yunshan and Yunwu were sensible and did not follow.
Suddenly, a commotion arose on the first floor.
Someone exclaimed in surprise, "Miss Qingjia!"
Ying Zijing raised her head, her phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, and looked over.
He met Lin Qingjia's gaze.
