Chapter 276: Divine Thought Blast
"Fairy Xiang, congratulations on entering the inner courtyard."
"Thank you..."
"Those who enter the inner courtyard must treat their peers to a meal at Hongding Tower. This is a rule that has been passed down since ancient times. Fairy Xiang, please don't think it's a waste of money."
"It is a great joy to be able to enter the inner courtyard, and I naturally want to share my joy with you all."
"Speaking of which, this is really amazing. We disciples of Tianshu Academy all know that the Elders' Pavilion has always been powerful. We thought that even if you were talented, it would be difficult for you to enter the inner courtyard. Unexpectedly, you actually got in. What's the secret?"
Under the noisy night, many outer court disciples of Tianshu Academy sat down in Hongding Tower.
During the conversation, someone couldn't help but look at Xiang Fu and asked a question that had been puzzling them for a long time, as if asking casually.
When the words were spoken, the others at the table couldn't help but turn their heads to look.
In fact, Xiang Fu herself was also in a trance, twirling her chopsticks and thinking for a long time.
Since the results of the selection were announced, many people came to her with curiosity to ask how she did it, but no one could have imagined that even she herself could not explain it clearly.
"Maybe it's because of Instructor Cao's advice..."
"Teacher Cao?"
"The instructor said that if I really want to enter the inner courtyard, I can try to learn from Miss Lu and get close to Senior Brother Ji..."
Hearing this, everyone looked thoughtful and looked at each other at the table.
Xiang Fu was not from an aristocratic family, and she did not have the complicated identity of a family marriage. In the eyes of these fellow practitioners from aristocratic families, she was actually as clean as a blank sheet of paper.
Therefore, it is clear who she knows, who she is close to, and all the relationship lines.
In fact, after she got the place in the inner courtyard, someone quickly used her family connections to investigate all her connections, but no important figures were found.
The only thing that comes to mind is Ji You, the one who stirs up the storm...
She and Ji You were in the same school, and she was also born in Fengzhou, which was under Ji You's jurisdiction.
But the problem is, if Ji You was still practicing in the holy land of sages, or had already touched the threshold of Yingtian when he came out, this kind of thing would indeed be reasonable.
But he didn't, which made Qiu Dou's choice of life seem unreasonable...
"Get close to Ji You...?"
"Just like Miss Lu Er..."
During the banquet, the disciples picked up their wine glasses, held them to their lips, and kept thinking and guessing among themselves.
As for Xiang Fu's explanation that "I didn't do anything, I just listened to Instructor Cao and got closer to Senior Brother Ji", it gradually spread and caused discussion in the outer courtyard.
The clue is not the answer, but it points to the answer.
But there are still many people who don’t understand why Ji You can affect the outcome of birth selection.
At this time, Ji You walked out of the courtyard and headed down the mountain in the late autumn sunlight.
Xiang Fu's entry into the inner courtyard did not have much impact on Ji You, because Qiu Dou's admission to the courtyard was not something he was concerned about.
The reason why he was involved was entirely because of Cao Jinsong's "flash of inspiration".
However, along the way, there were people who kept staring at him and looked at him for a long time, but they saw that his face looked normal and there was no intriguing expression on his face.
After a while, Ji You came to the office of the head official.
The matter of Bu Qirong was over. Although it was not made public, they were still under the orders of Palace Master Zuoqiu, so there were some things they had to know clearly.
For example, how Ji You went into the mountains to kill people, and his motive for killing.
This was not something worth keeping secret, so Ji You told them the whole process. As for the motive, he still said the same thing to Bu Qirong.
He just wanted to work with the people to farm the land well and didn't want to see chaos.
This reason sounds very ridiculous. If it were someone else, they would be directly charged with talking nonsense. But when Ji You said it, the three heads of the Office of Administration believed it.
He has always done this, establishing a noble family, going on diplomatic missions to the Snow Region, and returning home to harvest wheat during the Tiandao Conference.
Ji You, from the bottom of his heart, looked down on the immortal sects, looked down on the aristocratic families, and even more so on the system of being supported by the people...
At the end of the questioning, Manager Qin told him that if he needed anything in the hospital in the future, he could just tell him directly.
The fighting power displayed by Ji You meant that Tianshuyuan's attitude towards him would not be the same as before. Seeing that the attitude of the Director's Office was so good, Ji You did put forward some requests.
He wanted to know whether Cao Jinsong's monthly salary could be paid directly to him in the future without going through another hand, but was politely refused.
"Really?"
"It's against the rules to do this...
"What about Elder Fang's?"
"???"
Ji You knew at first sight that it wouldn't work, but he didn't make things difficult for them. He just said that they were inflexible and then stood up and left.
Looking at his receding back, Qin Rong couldn't help but touch his purse and breathed a sigh of relief: "That mother is in great danger."
Ji Jingyao nodded when he heard this: "Brother Qin is absolutely right..."
After a brief moment of relief, the two men recorded the content of their conversation and went to Zizai Hall in the evening to report it to the hall master Zuo Qiuyang.
Zuo Qiuyang held the case file in his hand and looked at it for a long time, and couldn't help but frowning slightly.
In particular, he watched the scene where Ji You reunited the Bu family in the mountains many times.
Qin Rong looked at Zuo Qiuyang's expression and couldn't help but bow and asked, "Palace Master, do you think there is a problem with this statement?"
Zuo Qiuyang came back to his senses, thought for a while, then turned to look at him: "You are only amazed at Ji You's fighting ability and the reason for killing, but you overlooked another very obvious thing."
"The obvious thing?"
"Except for the Dan Sect, the six major immortal sects joined forces to surround the mountain. It took a whole month but they didn't find any member of the Bu family except Bu Qirong. However, Ji You seemed to have opened his eyes and hunted accurately along the way without leaving any empty-handed."
Zuo Qiuyang waved his hand and released a ray of light, and a piece of white paper floated in the air.
Then he looked at the case file sent by Qin Rong and Ji Jingyao, and with a slight movement of his fingertips, a brush fell on it.
When the brush stopped moving, Qin Rong and Ji Jingyao could not help but be slightly stunned.
That was Ji You's killing route, and when they presented it on paper, they found that these routes had almost no turnbacks and were almost the most efficient places.
The bodies of the Bu family’s children have been found in every place this route passes.
Qin Rong and Ji Jingyao's eyes instantly turned into surprise after reading it: "Palace Master is very observant. If this is the case, it is indeed strange..."
Zuo Qiuyang stroked his long beard and said, "But this is not an important matter. It just surprised me."
"Is it Ji You's precision?"
"No, it's Ji You's divine consciousness, which is probably stronger than his physical body."
Hearing this, Qin Rong and Ji Jingyao's pupils trembled slightly.
They originally thought that Ji You was able to find the Bu family so accurately because he possessed some mysterious magic weapon or other magical powers, but they didn't expect it was divine consciousness.
In other words, Ji You searched the entire Dongping Mountains purely with his divine sense.
But the vast Dongping Mountains are endless, and even the elders of the Boundless Realm are helpless.
Qin Rong thought for a long time before coming back to his senses. He looked up at Zuo Qiuyang and said, "May I ask, Palace Master, is this matter something that needs special attention?"
"No, I just thought of some old news in the courtyard. I think his way of cultivation is very interesting. It has nothing to do with the Bu family..."
At the same time, in a teahouse in the woods not far from the Zizai Palace, Elder Peng’s nephew, Peng Yu, was frowning.
After the results of Tianshuyuan's Autumn Competition came out, Xiang Fu was flattered, but the great nephew of Elder Peng felt very uncomfortable.
He had already dressed up and was ready to enter the inner courtyard, but who knew something like this would happen.
Fang Jincheng saw the opportunity and led a group of fellow brothers from the inner courtyard to instigate him to seek justice from Ji You.
Are you just going to watch that kid from Fengzhou take your place?
You have never offended them before, but they just choose to target you. I can't stand it.
Fang Jincheng is sharp-tongued and is indeed a good instigator.
Of course, he didn't believe that Ji You could influence the outcome of the birth selection because he was also in the Tongxuan realm.
In his opinion, there are a lot of people like Ji You who are just like ants in the eyes of the Immortal Sect.
He is not even qualified to enter the Immortal Palace, so how could he possibly be qualified to influence the matter of choosing one's life?
But he and Ji You had a grudge, and now that there was such a great opportunity, he naturally wanted to direct all his attacks at Ji You.
Peng Yu was a person with no opinion to begin with. After several persuasions, he clenched his fists and decided to speak up for himself no longer in silence!
However, Peng Yu did not dare to face Ji You directly, because he was only in the lower three realms of perfection, and felt that he might not be able to defeat Ji You who was in the Tongxuan realm.
As for Fang Jincheng, he always just talks but never puts any effort into doing things.
However, standing behind Peng Yu was not only Elder Peng, but also the entire Peng family.
Before the Autumn Competition of Tianshu Academy began, the head of the Peng family specially brought a few elders from his family to congratulate his children for entering the inner courtyard.
Now that this has happened, they are filled with anger.
However, when Peng Yu came to ask them to take action against Ji You, the head of the Peng family couldn't help but sneer: "Do you really think that a mere Tongxuan can influence the decision of the elders of the Tianshu Academy?"
Peng Yu was stunned after hearing this, and turned to look at Fang Jincheng and other inner courtyard students standing next to him.
Fang Jincheng immediately pretended to be innocent and said, "Many people in the hospital said so. Even Xiang Fu, who replaced Brother Peng, admitted it."
"You kids are so easy to fool."
Hearing what Patriarch Peng said, Fang Jincheng and the others around him couldn't help but frown slightly, thinking that Patriarch Peng was indeed not as easy to fool as Peng Yu.
Fang Jincheng didn't care who influenced Zesheng at all. He just wanted to use the Peng family to teach Ji You a lesson, but he didn't expect to be seen through at a glance.
However, Peng Yu has always been favored in the family. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but say, "But Grandpa, I can't just let it go without entering the inner courtyard."
The head of the Peng family put his hands on the table and said, "Yes, this matter cannot be let go like this. Otherwise, won't others laugh at my Peng family?"
"So what should we do?"
"Go find your great uncle first and ask him who is against us behind the scenes."
After a brief discussion, the head of the Peng family and several elders stood up and took Peng Yu to the inner courtyard, while Fang Jincheng and several others followed them.
Fang Jincheng's idea was simple. He wanted to find an opportunity to see if he could divert some of the blame to Ji You.
After a while, the group arrived at the Elders' Pavilion.
It was very dark here, with almost no windows, but many candles were lit for lighting. The air was filled with a strong scent of sandalwood, but it could not conceal the decayed and old atmosphere.
Led by the disciples serving there, the Peng family and Fang Jincheng met Elder Peng.
After knowing their purpose, Elder Peng had a complicated expression: "Forget it."
Patriarch Peng knew that if his uncle could take care of this matter, this result would not have happened, so he added: "As long as Yu'er hasn't entered the inner courtyard, it's fine if your uncle doesn't take action, but you have to give us a chance to vent our anger."
"This is the Heavenly Academy. Even if you have grievances, what can you do to vent them?"
"My Peng family has never suffered such humiliation."
"Peng Liang, Ji You is in the limelight right now. He is young and arrogant, and people try to avoid him. Why do you want to confront him now?"
"?"
Hearing these words, everyone in the hall couldn't help but be stunned, wondering why it was still Ji You.
They had discussed this before. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that a Tongxuan disciple would not be able to interfere with the selection of life, but why did the uncle keep mentioning Ji You's name?
Fang Jincheng was also a little puzzled, wondering why Elder Peng was becoming more and more confused as he continued to practice, and was not as smart as the head of the Peng family.
However, before they could ask, Elder Peng expelled them on the grounds of practicing in seclusion.
He had said everything that needed to be said, and he didn't want to elaborate too much, which would only disturb his own spiritual practice.
Because in the past few days, many elders almost went crazy when they mentioned Ji You's name and thought of his age.
After leaving Elder Peng's room, the head of the Peng family frowned and thought for a long time, and finally took a group of people to look for Elder Fang.
The Peng family and the Fang family have always been on good terms and have close relations with each other, with many of the younger generations being related by marriage.
In fact, Fang Jincheng also wanted to find his grandfather, because he never understood why his grandfather still tolerated Ji You even though he embarrassed them time and time again.
So everyone walked along the long trail, on the old red carpet, towards the higher point of the Elders' Pavilion.
When they arrived at Elder Fang's place of practice, they discovered that there were not only Elder Fang and the few boys who served him in the front hall of the monastery.
Opposite him, there was an old man with gray hair and beard, skin wrinkled like ravines, and eyebrows growing together in a mess. He looked even older than Elder Fang, and the air of decay permeated his whole body.
If he hadn't been serving tea and drinking water, the group would have thought it was a mummy.
At this time, Elder Fang turned around and saw that it was the Peng family. He couldn't help but asked, "Peng Liang, what brings you here?"
"Elder Fang, we are here because Peng Yu did not enter the inner courtyard."
"The number of students selected has already been announced. This matter is set in stone and cannot be changed."
The head of the Peng family immediately spoke up: "We are naturally aware of the rules of the Tianshu Academy, and we have no extravagant hope to change the result, we just want justice."
After hearing this, Elder Fang looked at the boy and said, "Go and give them seats."
"yes!"
The head of the Peng family and Peng Yu were immediately delighted, thinking that there seemed to be a chance.
But Elder Fang did not speak to them anymore. Instead, he looked at the old man and asked, "Elder Lu, have you really decided?"
"I don't have much time left to live. I finally waited for a little hope but it was destroyed. If you can't swallow this, how can I swallow it?"
"But over at Lingjian Mountain..."
"No matter how powerful Lingjian Mountain is, it is still in the extreme south. Whatever our Tianshu Academy wants to do, they cannot interfere."
The head of the Peng family seized the opportunity to interrupt their conversation: "Elder Fang, what should we do about Yu'er? Please give us your advice."
Elder Fang turned to look at him at this time: "Don't worry, Patriarch Peng, Ji You will be in trouble soon."
"this……"
"I asked Elder Lu to come out today to avenge my grudges and pay back my grievances."
In fact, the people in charge of the hall guessed wrong. Elder Fang did not choose to keep quiet.
In fact, he had never gotten over the anger in his heart, especially because the other two elders in power went against him because of Ji You, which made him almost crazy.
He is dying, but not dead yet!
So he had been waiting for the past few days, and finally waited for Elder Lu in front of him to wake up from his sleep.
No one remembers Elder Lu’s real name anymore because he has lived for too long.
However, everyone in the Elders' Pavilion knew that he was the uncle of Wuyu Palace Master Lu Fengchuan, the most powerful person in the Elders' Pavilion, and also a powerful person in the Divine Wandering Realm.
In fact, his life span had already come to an end, and he had been sleeping all these years in order to delay death.
It was Elder Lu who arranged to go to Dongping Mountain to look for the immortal fate of the Bu family.
Elder Fang waited for him to wake up so that he could tell him that Ji You had killed Bu Qirong and let the man who deserved to die die.
Hearing Ji You mentioned twice, Patriarch Peng slowly opened his eyes wide.
When he first heard his uncle advising him not to provoke Ji You, he thought it was just his uncle's helpless words.
But when he heard Elder Fang mention it again, he understood.
The reason why the Tianshu Academy selected the girl from Fengzhou was really because of Ji You...
But before he could think about it, he suddenly felt an extremely powerful breath whistling up, which instantly made his whole body tremble and his head roar.
When he looked up, he saw that Elder Lu was like a beast that had come back to life. All the bones in his body were crackling, and then the boiling blood began to fill his body, quickly filling up his dry body.
Seeing this scene, the head of the Peng family froze his eyes instantly.
He had heard of this magic, which was said to have been created by a powerful man who was nearing the end of his life. It could compress the body to the point of being half dead, thereby forcibly prolonging one's life.
However, this kind of magic requires years of sleep and is generally not used unless necessary.
At this moment, Patriarch Peng suddenly realized that Elder Lu in front of him was so anxious and was about to take action.
The other disciples also opened their eyes wide instantly. They never expected that one day they would see an elder from the Divine Wandering Realm take action. Their scalps instantly tightened.
Because the terrifying aura was continuously released like a tsunami, almost crushing them to the ground.
However, what surprised them was that Elder Lu did not stand up. Instead, he straightened his back and sat upright, showing no intention of leaving the wooden chair.
"Grandpa, isn't Elder Lu going to take action?"
Patriarch Peng came back to his senses and glanced at Peng Yu: "Do you know why the Divine Wandering Realm is called the Divine Wandering Realm?"
The next moment, everyone suddenly felt a breath swaying up to the sky.
And in their sight, a golden light roared out of the hall and went straight up into the night sky towards the rising moon.
It was a golden human figure, exactly the same as Elder Lu, but Elder Lu was still sitting upright on the chair at this time.
Seeing this scene, the disciples present were immediately shocked.
Why is the Shenyou Realm called the Shenyou Realm?
That’s because the strong people at this level can travel through time and space and kill gods with their own strength!
Everyone couldn't help but gasp, as if they saw a corpse fall to the ground, but there was no flesh wound on the body at all.
At the same time, Fang Jincheng was still immersed in the previous conversation, muttering to himself, "This is not right."
It was indeed wrong, because he felt that Elder Peng was wrong, the grandfather was wrong, and Elder Lu was also wrong.
It couldn't be Ji You. He was just a small master. How could he influence the decision of the big shots in the courtyard?
However, as Elder Lu roared away, he reacted instantly.
Isn't this just right? He came here to divert the trouble to Ji You, so he saved some time and effort.
However, this misunderstanding is still a bit funny...
He actually led a powerful person in the Shenyou realm to kill a Tongxuan.
You know, the world of Qingyun has always been about cause and effect. Today, the master invited such a big shot to kill a small minion. I don't know how much it will cost.
According to his idea, the grandfather could easily crush him to death with just a stretch of his hand.
He kept thinking and thinking, and in his mind emerged the scene of Ji You drinking tea in the yard and falling to the ground with a thud, and himself lamenting that he didn't even know how he died.
puff--
At this moment, Elder Lu's body suddenly trembled.
Everyone looked back and saw a trickle of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth...
