"Uh...Brother, what should we do now?" Chen Siqi was a little depressed.
"Let's go back to Changfeng Region first." Li Mu said. He was also upset at this moment. Not only did he gain nothing from this trip, but it made him even more confused.
Li Mu really wanted to find Jiang Yang directly and force him to answer, but he knew he couldn't do that. After all, he and Jiang Yang didn't have much of an advantage in strength. Even if he joined forces with Ji Feibai to capture Jiang Yang, they might not be able to get anything out of him. This kind of thing can only be done with wisdom, not force.
Moreover, after meeting Jiang Yang today, he also deeply realized the gap between himself and the six major forces. He needs to re-evaluate his own strength and adjust the future development plan of Lingxiao Palace.
"What about Jiang Yuer...?" Chen Siqi asked tentatively.
"Haha, let's go." Li Mu smiled. He would naturally not let Jiang Yuer marry Ji Hao. After all, Jiang Yuer is still the external leader of Lingxiao Palace. Is there going to be another general election?
The most important thing is, judging from Jiang Yang's attitude, she felt that it was not that simple for Ji Haoxuan to marry Jiang Yuer. How could he let them get their wish?
However, he couldn't say these words now. After all, this was still Jiang Yang's territory. If Jiang Yang knew what he was thinking, he probably wouldn't let them go so easily.
When Li Mu and the other two walked out of the palace, Ji Wenbin was about to take Jiang Yuer away.
"Palace Master Jiang, don't be in a hurry to leave. We also need to go back to Changfeng Region, so we'll give you a ride as well." Li Mu said with a smile.
Ji Wenbin and Jiang Hongyun were both surprised when they heard this. From what Li Mu said, did he mean to leave Gujiang Domain with Jiang Yuer and Ji Wenbin?
"It's a rare occasion for you guys to come to my Jiang family, why don't you stay a while before leaving?" Jiang Hongyun kindly reminded. He could see at a glance that there was a grudge between Li Mu and Ji Wenbin. Although he had promised Jiang Yuer before that he would protect the safety of Li Mu and the other two, it was only limited to the Gu Jiang Domain. Now Li Mu and the other two actually planned to leave the Gu Jiang Domain with Ji Wenbin. Isn't this courting death?
As soon as Jiang Hongyun said this, Ji Wenbin's face suddenly became a little ugly. This was obviously going against him!
However, before Li Mu could say anything, Jiang Yuer said calmly: "Your legs are on your bodies, why do you need to ask me how to walk?"
Hearing Jiang Yuer say this, Jiang Hongyun's face froze. Jiang Yuer must know the interests involved in letting Li Mu and Ji Wenbin leave the ancient Jiang domain together, but why did Jiang Yuer say this? Obviously, Jiang Yuer and Li Mu had a conflict when they went to see the ancestor, so that the relationship between the two has become very tense.
However, Jiang Hongyun didn't know Li Mu and the other two. He helped Li Mu and the others for Jiang Yuer's sake. Now that Jiang Yuer didn't care, there was naturally no need for him to care about this matter anymore.
Ji Wenbin also noticed the subtle change in the relationship between Jiang Yuer and Li Mu. He couldn't help but feel happy about this, with a smile on his face. Originally, he planned to let a member of the Jiang family who had a good relationship with him watch over Li Mu and the other two, and arrest them when they left Gujiang Territory, and then come back to deal with them after he finished his business. But now that Li Mu was going to leave Gujiang City with them, it saved him the trouble. After all, asking people for help would cost favors, right?
The most important thing is that this way he doesn't have to offend Jiang Yu'er. After all, Jiang Yu'er is going to marry Ji Haoxuan, and it would be troublesome for him if he holds a grudge against her. Although Jiang Yu'er is resistant to this matter now, she will accept this fact sooner or later. If Jiang Yu'er is favored by Ji Haoxuan in the future and gives him eye drops, it will still cause him some trouble.
Outsiders only know that Ji Haoxuan is favored by Ji Hao, which arouses the envy of countless people, but only the high-level members of the Ji family know that Ji Haoxuan's status in Ji Hao's mind is far inferior to this.
Once, Ji Haoxuan robbed the childhood sweetheart of another genius of the Ji family. Later, the genius found out about this and went to Ji Haoxuan to argue with him. However, the arrogant Ji Haoxuan actually designed a plan to beat the genius to death.
This incident caused a big uproar in the Ji family at the time, and even alarmed an elder ranked 17th at the time in the Ji family. That elder found Ji Hao to ask for an explanation, attempting to make Ji Haoxuan pay with his life.
However, the other elders were not optimistic about this matter. Although Ji Haoxuan did go too far and harmed the tribesmen, if it happened to anyone else, they would definitely die. But everyone knew that the ancestor favored Ji Haoxuan, and it was good enough for the ancestor to give Ji Haoxuan a little punishment. He also wanted Ji Haoxuan to pay for his life. Isn't this a joke? Everyone was not optimistic about the petition of the 17th elder.
However, what no one expected was that Elder 17 had not appeared since that incident. While everyone was talking about it, Ji Hao personally announced that Elder 17's soul lamp had been extinguished, and his life and death had ceased. Ji Wenbin's ranking among the elders was also moved from 28th to 27th.
Ji Hao did not say what the cause of death of the elder was, and no one dared to ask, let alone mention the fact that Ji Haoxuan had killed his fellow tribesmen. This matter became a taboo in the Ji family. Until now, Ji Haoxuan has not been held accountable for the incident, as if nothing had happened.
From this we can see how important Ji Haoxuan is in Ji Hao's heart. To put it bluntly, in Ji Hao's eyes, Ji Wenbin is probably not even as important as one of Ji Haoxuan's fingers.
Therefore, it would be best if they could deal with Li Mu and his men without offending Jiang Yuer.
"Haha, since you guys are planning to go together, then please go ahead." Ji Wenbin said with a sinister smile.
Li Mu smiled slightly at this, bowed to Ji Wenbin, and then took Chen Siqi and Liu Yuanbai to fly towards the ancient Jiang domain transmission hub.
Seeing Li Mu's gesture of goodwill, Ji Wenbin smiled coldly in his heart: "You only think of currying favor with me now? It's too late!"
"Let's get on the road too." Jiang Yuer said calmly, as if everything that just happened had nothing to do with her.
Watching Jiang Yu'er and her group leave, Jiang Hongyun sighed deeply: "Yu'er, I hope you can live well in the Ji family! I don't have the ability to protect you, but don't worry, if Ji Haoxuan dares to neglect you, I will make him pay the price no matter what!"
When Jiang Hongyun said this, a hint of determination appeared in his eyes.
