Chapter 374 Lingjian Mountain’s Little Master and Ji You?
Letting a person who has only cultivated his body and never practiced Taoism compete with an elder of an immortal sect using finger techniques is inherently an unfair discussion.
This is the intimidation of the Immortal Sect and the suppression of offenders.
But Ji You had reasons to agree, so he had no choice but to jump in.
Everyone at the scene speculated that Ji You might have secretly learned the finger techniques and might have a chance of survival. They also speculated that Ji You might break the rules and kill someone out of impulse.
But from beginning to end, they never guessed what was happening before their eyes.
No magic, no spiritual energy.
He just kept moving closer until he was right in front of Huo Ku.
Then, he relied on the strength and power of his body and killed people with two fingers!
This was his fingering style, wild and violent, different from what was commonly known, yet difficult to call illegal.
Because if concentrating finger light can be considered as finger technique, then how can it not be considered as a simple two-finger attack?
"You want it, fingering."
“…”
In the discussion hall, Ji You stood at a 45-degree angle, looking at Huo Ku, who had already died, with contempt in his eyes, and blood kept dripping from his fingers that were pressed together.
The originally bustling enlightenment venue seemed to have suddenly lost all sound, with only the clear audible sound of breathing in the venue.
The heavy breathing sounded as if they had just experienced a fight.
But this silent silence only lasted for a moment, and then countless people stood up from their seats, expressions of astonishment instantly appearing on their faces.
Countless eyes stared at Ji You, staring at his two fingers that were constantly dripping with blood, and exclamations came like a tsunami.
He doesn't care at all!
From the beginning of this discussion till now, he didn't care at all about how he would fight if he didn't know how to use his fingers!
He just kept getting closer with great confidence, and then killed a great monk of the Wujiang Initial Realm with two fingers.
The Xianzong's punishment and suppression failed, but in return they received Ji You's most powerful and pure resistance.
It was his revenge for his friend's arrest, and it was the first time he showed his anger to others.
The arrogance of "Use all your tricks, I will kill you head-on" alone is enough to make all the cultivators in the audience dazed.
On the viewing platform, Fang Jincheng looked at Ji You, who had a murderous look on his face, with a look of horror.
The other members of the aristocratic families were all thrown into unspeakable shock.
Ji You's strength in swordsmanship will, to a certain extent, overshadow the strength of his physical body. After all, from the beginning to the end, it was his swordsmanship that brought him endless reputation.
But it was not until now, when they saw him use his two fingers to shatter Huo Ku's accompanying magic and directly take his life, that they had their first clear understanding of the strength of his physical body.
On the north viewing platform, He Lingxiu, Yu Shiliu, Zhao Yunyue and other female cultivators were all in a trance.
"this……"
"The only magic in the world that cannot be broken is force."
In the hall of the Guandao Tower on the north side, Qin Rong's mind kept replaying the scene of Ji You killing people with two fingers. Before he could think of any words to comment, he heard a voice.
Turning around, he saw that Chaihu, the master of the Hall of Longevity, was also staring outside, and the aura around him began to boil uncontrollably.
He practiced the way of force and always advocated that the only magic in the world that cannot be broken is force.
But in spiritual practice, it has always been a case of you saying you are right and me saying I am right. It is difficult for someone's teachings to become a consensus among the people of the world.
Today's discussion of Ji You undoubtedly proved his truth, causing him to resonate with it uncontrollably and also making Chaihu's eyes complicated.
However, the noise and shock were soon interrupted by the sound of a door opening, attracting countless people to look at the Guandao Tower on the south side.
At that time, the people from the Wendao Sect walked out of the hall, all looking at Huo Ku's body with serious expressions.
Especially the Holy Son Shang Xiyao, whose narrowed eyes were filled with endless hostility.
Wen Dao Zong was angry.
This discussion was originally held to suppress Ji You, in order to make him fear the power of the immortals and learn to submit.
But in the end, their people died and the suppression was reversed. As the Taoist sect that controlled the world, how could they not be angry?
The discussion in the room died down instantly, and everyone looked at the people from the Wending Sect.
"Ji You, you are so brave!"
"Have I ever broken the rules?" Ji You looked up after hearing this.
Deputy Sect Leader Shang Xingkong's expression turned stern. "Discussions should be brief, so why did you kill someone?"
Before he could finish his words, the hall of the Guandao Tower on the north side behind Ji You suddenly opened wide.
Zuo Qiuyang and Chaihu stepped out, followed by several elders from the Elders' Pavilion. They looked at Wendao Sect, and the aura around them was no longer suppressed.
This is a transmission of attitude.
They stood behind Ji You, which also meant that they would not sit idly by.
However, the appearance of the people from Tianshuyuan did not suppress the anger of Wendao Sect, but instead caused the halls in the other two places to open.
The deputy patriarch of the Chen family of immortals appeared with the powerful and mighty men in the clan, and the deputy headmaster of the Shanhai Pavilion and his disciples also appeared on the other side.
The powerful aura was like a flood bursting through a dam. Although no one took action, a burst of explosion sounded in the center of the enlightenment field in an instant.
The situation of the three sects joining forces to confront the Tianshu Academy made all the cultivators in the Immortal Garden change their faces.
“Damn it!”
"This Ji You, really deserves to die!"
Fang Xiang, the head of the Fang family, instantly revealed a ferocious expression mixed with anger: "He thought he won? He thought he was so high-spirited and invincible? No, he just provoked even greater anger in the hearts of the Immortal Sect!"
Hearing Fang Xiang's words, the He family, Zuoqiu family, Qiu family and other prominent families around him all frowned.
Yes, Ji You killed Huo Ku with two fingers, and it seemed that he had let out a breath of anger and was in high spirits.
But in reality, he might as well have lost.
Because if he lost, at least he could calm the anger of the Immortal Sect caused by being offended.
Afterwards, he dragged his body, which was injured by Huo Ku, to the Wendao Sect, Shanhai Pavilion and the Chen Immortal Clan in turn to apologize, and then offered the immortal spirit with both hands, and the matter was considered settled.
But he won, and won in such a legal way, and embarrassed the Wending Sect.
This kind of victory is meaningless and will only make the Immortal Sect unable to control their anger.
As expected, the murderous intent from the Immortal Sect has arrived.
And there are three of them.
This is Shengjing, in front of the Nishan Temple of Tianshuyuan.
In their opinion, Tianshuyuan has always valued Zong Wei, and Ji You felt that Tianshuyuan would never be a coward, so he used this to drag Tianshuyuan into the water.
They are all families that are dependent on Tianshu Academy, and they prosper because of Tianshu Academy, so their positions must naturally be consistent with Tianshu Academy.
In other words, they now have to face the murderous intentions of the three immortal sects together.
But how to win?
How to win?!
One plus one equals one, let alone one plus two now!
If they are not careful, they may be killed because of a rural private cultivator whom they have always disliked!
It would be fine if he died alone, but how could he implicate so many people?
"Ji You!"
"?"
Ji You turned around and saw Fang Xiang shouting at him angrily.
"As a disciple of the Heavenly Academy, you are naturally protected by the Heavenly Academy. Now in front of the Taoist temple, the two hall masters will naturally not let anything happen to you. But how can you have the heart to provoke opposition between the immortal sects because of your own selfish desires?!"
He Ye couldn't help but speak up when he saw this: "As a disciple of Tianshu Academy, you should also consider your master."
The harmonious voices from all sides made the other noble families unable to help but talk about it. They thought that these two people were worthy of being the wise old men in charge of the noble families, and that it was just the right time for them to speak at this time.
In this way, it not only provides Tianshuyuan with a way out, but also delays the fighting spirit of both sides.
As long as Ji You truly lets go of his stubbornness and admits his mistakes, this tense situation can be resolved.
But the only thing they didn't know was why the Immortal Sect couldn't obtain that thing. In other words, they didn't know why Ji You was unwilling to hand it over.
But Ji You did not speak or take any action.
This scene angered the noble families relying on Tianshu Academy, and scolding instantly rang out in the enlightenment field.
"You are still stubborn and refuse to change?!"
"You are truly too ignorant of your own limitations. If we had known this would happen, we should have disciplined you strictly!"
"A country bumpkin is just a country bumpkin. He has no idea what the bigger picture is!"
"Do you really think that you can escape unscathed by being protected by the Heavenly Academy? Doing this will only put the Heavenly Academy in danger, and you will still end up dead!"
Zhao Yunyue and others were also watching this scene nervously, their hearts in their throats.
When she was rejected when she sent her marriage proposal, she said that this person had a very bad character and thought too highly of himself, which would surely bring disaster upon himself.
But she never thought that he would bring about such a disaster.
But at this moment, Zhao Yunyue's eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of a fiery and arrogant figure.
On the west side of the hall, which had never been opened, the young master of Lingjian Mountain walked towards him in a fairy robe, with the coldness in his eyes like a raging snowstorm.
Zhao Yunyue's eyes were startled for a moment, and then a hint of joy appeared.
Because she had asked Liu Junchi for help yesterday, and Liu Junchi promised her that he would send a message again, and also said that the young master often came to observe the Tao, and taking this opportunity to meet him would increase the success rate.
She thought that Senior Brother Liu's arrangement had worked, but she didn't understand why it happened under such a tense situation.
But the opportunity was rare, so she hesitated for only a moment before folding her hands.
What she didn't expect was that the young master of Lingjian Mountain did not stop in front of her, but continued to move forward.
Following her gaze, Zhao Yunyue was slightly stunned.
Because she found that Jianzhu was looking at Ji You, or rather, she had been looking at Ji You all the way.
This is definitely not an illusion, because apart from the deceased Huo Ku, there is only Ji You in the Taoist temple.
She couldn't be looking at anyone else, she must be looking at Ji You.
Seeing this scene, not only her, but also Yu Shiliu, Wang Gaocen and other disciples of Lingjian Mountain were a little dazed and didn't understand what was going on.
"People from Lingjian Mountain are here too."
"Four against one, I'm afraid I'm going to witness the destruction of the Heavenly Academy."
"Ji You, look at these, are you really going to be a sinner who goes down in history?"
When the young Master Jian appeared at the Dao discussion venue, a large number of elders from Lingjian Mountain also walked out of the Dao Viewing Tower and were seen by everyone.
Among them, there were also two auras of perfection in the upper five realms, which were extremely shocking and made the tense atmosphere even more tense.
After all, in the eyes of the cultivators in the garden, Lingjian Mountain must have come to put pressure on Tianshu Academy, because from ancient times to the present, their relationship with Tianshu Academy has been very bad.
But as soon as the scolding voice fell, they revealed a hint of doubt, because the people from Lingjian Mountain did not go to where the Wending Sect was, but unexpectedly went to Tianshuyuan.
"Palace Master Zuoqiu, Palace Master Chai, seeing is believing."
"The two seniors are well."
The ancestor of Xuanjian Peak, who was in the upper fifth realm, stroked his beard lightly and stood to the right of the two hall masters of Tianshu Academy. The four huge auras intertwined and the roaring sound continued.
At this time, Ji You also turned to look at the tsundere ghost, and couldn't help but sigh softly when he saw her appear.
"They arrested Kuang Cheng. I had actually planned to send the things over, but I couldn't control my anger. Besides, I still haven't seen Kuang Cheng, and I feel uneasy."
"You bastard..."
Yan Shuyi looked at him and called out softly, then stared at his blood-spattered face for a long time, reached out from his sleeve, pulled out his handkerchief and handed it to him.
Ji You reached out to take it, and while wiping it, he saw him take out an outer shirt from the storage gourd at his waist and handed it to him like a brocade handkerchief.
She lived in Fengzhou for a long time during the New Year period, but she didn't bring many clothes with her. After all, if she brought too many clothes, it would prove that she was going to live there permanently, which didn't fit the image of someone who just came here for a stroll.
So she often liked to wear Ji You's outer clothes, and naturally there were a few of them in the gourd.
Similarly, Ji You also has a few pairs of her fragrant socks in his gourd.
Taking out a replacement is the most natural thing.
Ji You took off his torn and bloodstained coat and reached out to put on his sleeves, while Yan Shuyi silently pulled down the hem of his robe and smoothed down his collar.
That little expression was like that of a good wife, very serious, yet a little clumsy.
Seeing this scene, everyone's eyes froze.
The entrance from Lingjian Mountain went to Tianshuyuan, which instantly made the venue fall into silence, so it was not noisy.
Therefore, the two simple conversations between Ji You and Yan Shuyi were easily heard by everyone, but the meaning they represented was not so easy to guess.
Many people don’t even know that Ji You actually knows the young master of Lingjian Mountain.
After all, one of them was a private cultivator from the countryside of Fengzhou, and the other was the next generation leader who was about to take control of Lingjian Mountain. No matter how you looked at it, they shouldn't have any connection.
But they happen to know each other.
And knowing each other is not the key point. The key point is that women's personal handkerchiefs cannot be used by men casually...
And that piece of clothing.
Ji You always presented himself as a poor person and rarely spent money on his own initiative, so he didn't have many clothes.
He most often wore the immortal robe of Tianshuyuan. Other than that, most of his clothes had been seen by others. In addition, the outer coat fit him so well now that it was easy to confirm that the outer coat originally belonged to him.
But that outer coat was taken out of the gourd of the young master of Lingjian Mountain.
In the storage gourd of the young master, his clothes have always been stored...
Just as everyone was stunned, suddenly, several beams of fairy light descended from the sky, bringing with them a huge roar, which made everyone's heart tremble and feel a terrifying pressure pouring into their shoulders.
In the distant sky, a stone mirror roared up into the sky.
At the same time, Yan Shu also walked into the venue and looked at the people from the Wendao Sect, the Chen Clan and the Shanhai Pavilion.
"How dare you try to kill him in front of me?"
As the words fell, there was a continuous roar in the spiritual mirror. The deputy leaders and direct disciples of the Wendao Sect, the Chen Family and the Shanhai Pavilion all changed their expressions, while Zuo Qiuyang's expression was a little surprised.
Ji You and the Little Master Jian of Lingjian Mountain had an affair, and this had always been vaguely known to the high-ranking members of the immortal sect.
But they didn't know how they met or what they had experienced, so naturally they didn't know the extent of the affair.
It is not easy to determine whether it is a love between a man and a woman, or mutual exploitation between a master and a servant, or a sword inheritance similar to that between a master and an apprentice.
After all, the word "household affairs" can represent too many relationships.
After Ji You returned to Beijing, the five major immortal sects discussed the matter of immortals in private for a long time and sent three elders to the mountain. During this period, Lingjian Mountain never expressed its position.
They thought that Ji You did not have a very close relationship with them, so Xiao Jianzhu might feel that Ji You was not worth her offending the other three sects.
This is normal, because anyone else would make the same choice.
After all, the situation in the south has always been that the three sects are in a state of mutual checks and balances, maintaining stability for a thousand years.
If this balance of power is broken, and two of the factions become close and one becomes hostile to the other, then the isolated faction will definitely fall into crisis.
Especially since the situation inside Lingjian Mountain was already chaotic, and Tianjian Peak’s desire had just been suppressed not long ago.
But who knew that she really stood up and even used the holy weapon.
Misjudgment was made.
Because the marriage of the young master of Lingjian Mountain was of great importance, she was reluctant to express her opinion and kept avoiding the issue.
But the misjudgment made them relax and add some measures, but unexpectedly they forced it out.
Ji You was also looking at Yan Shuyi at this time, and the spiritual energy that had been connected to the Taoist sword in the storage gourd was slowly withdrawn.
In fact, both of them had a tacit understanding in keeping their relationship a secret.
But now that she was out, Ji You left everything else to her.
At this time, the spiritual mirror was still spinning, and Yan Shuyi's eyes were still cold.
"The items in the Holy Land of the Ancients are of great importance. I know that all the sects are nervous, but the biggest problem is that you said that the items that flow out should be handled by the five sects in turn, but who will take charge first and who will take charge later?"
"Why don't we let Lingjianshan take charge first? You guys will feel at ease then?"
After Master Xiaojian finished speaking, silence fell among the Daodao Sect, the Chen Immortal Clan, and the Shanhai Pavilion.
Seeing this, Yan Shu also chuckled: "You see, we all know that thing is extremely important, but no one can trust anyone else."
Zuo Qiuyang saw this and said, "I wonder what Master Jian means?"
"Since the five major immortal sects don't trust each other, it shouldn't stay in the immortal sect, otherwise it will sooner or later cause suspicion and competition."
Yan Shuyi turned to look at Ji You. "Ji You, a disciple of the Heavenly Academy, has a righteous character. He is not afraid of the might of the immortals. He is extremely powerful in combat and is kind and generous. Even though he attracts attention due to his excellence, he has not lost his original intention. Naturally, no one can doubt his pure heart. I think it would be a good fit for him to stay with me."
I don’t know if it’s appropriate, but this is definitely a legitimate way to praise my husband.
On the right side of the viewing platform, Cao Jinsong, who was relieved that Xiao Jianzhu had come forward, started complaining.
Ji You couldn't help but look at the tsundere, thinking that the person his wife was praising seemed very unfamiliar to him.
However, Zuo Qiuyang nodded slightly after hearing this: "My Tianshuyuan agrees with this idea."
Yan Shuyi heard the voice and looked at the three deputy heads of the sects: "I wonder what the others think?"
The deputy head of the Chen Immortal Clan pondered for a long time before speaking, "If it were before, I would have agreed, but today, the Master of Observation has come forward, and his relationship with Ji You has made me a little worried. Could it be that the Master of Observation will not interfere with him? You know, fate has always been equal."
The Little Mirror Master sneered upon hearing this: "I once didn't even want a Spirit Mirror."
After the words fell, the deputy clan leader fell silent.
Indeed, the Young Master of Spirit Sword Mountain had previously rejected even the Spirit Mirror, let alone other things in the world...
Once some things have gotten to the point where fighting has to take place, they cannot be resolved in a few words.
But the problem is that the person who said these few words has changed to someone else.
Two immortal sects are facing three immortal sects. The gap between them is not that big. If they really fight, both sides will suffer losses. This is not the result they want.
After a long silence, the Chen family of immortals were the first to leave the garden, and the Shanhai Pavilion also left.
Only Dao Zong was able to ask for help, but when he saw the two families retreating, he was stopped by a wisp of sword energy.
"Where's Kuang Cheng?"
"It's in Wannian County, west of the city. Go pick it up yourself!"
After hearing this, Ji You looked at Yan Shuyi and said, "I'll go pick him up."
Yan Shuyi stared at him and said, "What does this have to do with me..."
"I won't argue with you. We'll talk when I get back."
Yan Shuyi watched him soar into the sky, her slender, curled eyelashes trembling slightly.
At this moment, countless people were looking at her.
She handed the handkerchief to Ji You, and her storage gourd contained Ji You's clothes.
And at this moment, the expression on her face as she watched Ji You leave made them seem to realize something, but they found it hard to believe.
Qiu Hanyue suddenly remembered what he had heard from Ji You when he went to Xianxian Garden to reject the engagement without telling his father: I have someone in my heart.
At that time, she felt that she was the daughter of a wealthy family and would be ridiculed if she married a peasant from the countryside, so she did not pay attention to this remark.
As for He Lingxiu, she had heard about this from her uncle before, but she never believed it until she saw what happened today with her own eyes, and her mind was filled with Zen.
Also unable to recover was He Ye, the head of the He family.
He arranged for his daughter to find a son-in-law and allowed him to secretly take a concubine after marrying into the family. He thought the other party would definitely not refuse, but he didn't even reply to the letter, so he was puzzled.
After all, he felt that it was a great opportunity for Ji You, a rural private cultivator, to be able to get close to the He family. How could he refuse it?
And at this moment, he suddenly seemed to have the answer.
Of course, there are also reactions that are completely different from theirs.
Behind the right side of the Tianshuyuan Guandaotai, the Lu sisters held their breath for a long time, but still couldn't react to the fact that their elder sister seemed to have been replaced.
Especially Lu Hanyan, she seemed to have found the reason why Xiao Jianzhu looked at her from time to time, but she felt that the reason was a bit outrageous.
