Although they didn't go to watch the genius competition, they didn't miss a single thing about their master.
They had always thought their master was amazing, beautiful, kind-hearted, and incredibly strong, unlike anyone else. They never imagined that their master was a genius among geniuses, and that his contracted beast was actually a dragon.
"Of course, from now on, follow me and you'll live a life of luxury and reach the pinnacle of human existence."
Ji Jiuying said with a smile.
After assigning everyone their rooms, Ji Jiuying walked around the mansion, and a defensive array surrounding the mansion was completed.
That way, she would be the first to notice any disturbances in the mansion.
Now that she has moved to the Princess's residence, the news will probably spread throughout the capital city by tomorrow. Since she is currently outnumbered and vulnerable, she took out the token given to her by Wen Chuyu for safety reasons.
Infuse with soul energy, half a moment later.
With a ripple, Ji Jiuying removed the defensive array, and two Spirit Kings and ten Spirit Generals appeared in Ji Jiuying's courtyard.
This also alerted Shadowmoon next door.
"Greetings, Master."
master?
"Who is your master?" Ji Jiuying asked.
"Reporting to my master, my master is Miss Ji."
A group of people answered in unison.
"Very well, what I hate most are people who are two-faced. I hope you can see the truth. If you can't, then it's not too late to regret it now."
"We swear to be loyal to Miss Ji Jiuying to the death. If we betray her, may we be struck by lightning and our souls be destroyed." As soon as the words were spoken, a circle of light appeared on the ground, surrounding them. The runes formed within the circle turned into rays of light and entered their foreheads.
Ji Jiuying nodded in satisfaction and asked, "Do you all have names now?"
"Reporting to Master, this subordinate is Fei Hu."
"Your subordinate is Flying Dragon!"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I do not have a name, only a serial number, namely number one, number two, number three... number ten!"
A spirit replied.
Not having a name was a real headache for Ji Jiuying. Who knows how much she hated coming up with names? So she simply let them continue calling her by her name in order.
"Aren't there still a hundred Grand Spirit Masters?"
"Reporting to Master, it's nearby. Your courtyard is too small," Fei Hu replied respectfully.
Ji Jiuying was taken aback; it did seem a bit difficult for a hundred people to stand in her main courtyard.
"Alright, the yard next door is also my yard, we'll meet there from now on."
"yes!"
"Flying Dragon will lead ten spirit generals to hide in the mansion, and send twenty great spirit masters as guards. The others will wait in the shadows."
"Flying Tiger, you'll stay with me for now. I'll give you other tasks later."
"Understood!"
The courtyard returned to its previous tranquility, but twenty well-trained guards had appeared at the entrance and around the mansion, making it a place one dared not easily offend.
After making the arrangements, Ji Jiuying asked Butler Sun to post a notice at the main gate.
As expected, this attracted a large crowd to watch. One man, seeing this, beamed with joy and immediately ran home.
······
"Master, Miss Ji has activated the token," An Er said respectfully.
Wen Chuyu's icy blue eyes flickered slightly, and a gentle expression appeared between her brows. After a moment of silence, she asked.
"Who was sent?"
"Flying Tiger, Flying Dragon".
"Hmm~, the Heavenly Fiend Sect has removed them from the list."
In assassin organizations, failing a mission, which means death, results in expulsion from the organization.
They were the exception, the only exception, and from now on, they would have nothing to do with the Heavenly Fiend Sect.
“Master, there is one more thing. Someone just spent 300,000 high-grade spirit stones to kill Miss Ji.”
After saying that, An Er clearly felt the surrounding air get a few degrees colder.
The gentleness in Wen Chuyu's eyes vanished instantly, replaced by a chilling killing intent.
"You answered?"
"I accepted it, but I didn't take any action." An Er swallowed hard, afraid that his master would blame him for making the decision on his own.
He naturally knew how important Miss Ji was to his master, and he would only dare to assassinate her if he were suicidal.
As for why he accepted the job, it was because he wanted to trick that reckless woman who dared to hire someone to assassinate her master.
"Hmm~"
An Er breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, thankfully his master hadn't blamed him.
"Send 300,000 high-grade spirit stones to Xiao Jiu's residence," Wen Chuyu said calmly.
An Er: "Yes..."
······
The sun had already set, and the sky was a hazy gray.
Ji Jiuying brought Da Niu to Qi Yeyue Tower.
Qingling was still diligently learning accounting from the shopkeeper, unaware that Ji Jiuying had arrived.
"Light and agile, shopkeeper."
"Miss, you've arrived!" Qingling was overjoyed.
"Miss Ji."
"Thank you for your help, shopkeeper. How's your Lightness skill coming along?" Ji Jiuying asked.
"No trouble at all, no trouble at all. Qingling is quick-witted and understands things immediately. I can basically remember everything I say after just one explanation. She's a promising talent," the shopkeeper said with a smile.
"It's all thanks to the shopkeeper's excellent teaching." Qingling felt embarrassed by the shopkeeper's praise.
"That's good. Qingling, this is Da Niu. He'll be working for you from now on."
"Hello, Qingling, my name is Da Niu. Please take care of me in the future," Da Niu said excitedly.
The thought of working in this bustling Kyoto in the future made him so excited that he couldn't sleep.
"Da Niu? Is that Zhang Mama's son, Da Niu?" Qingling asked in confusion.
"Yes."
After assigning Da Niu to Qing Ling's side, they left Fei Hu in the shadows to protect the two of them.
······
After returning to her room, Ji Jiuying flashed into her spatial dimension.
I drank a few cups of the spiritual spring water. The water tasted sweet and warmed my body after drinking it, which was very comfortable.
