Lan Xi, sixteen years old, is the daughter of Lan Ting, whom I met half a day ago. However, she has suffered from a strange disease since childhood. She cannot be exposed to the sun. Once her skin comes into contact with the sun, her whole body will become red and swollen, and she will develop red rashes that are extremely itchy.
Countless pharmacists have been consulted, but none of them can diagnose her illness. Because of this, the Lan family has never dared to take her out, which has made her become withdrawn. Some people don't even know that the Lan family has such a person.
But Lan Xi is a master of formations, and he spends most of his time in his room researching various formations.
Ji Jiuying frowned. Looking at these symptoms, it seemed so much like an allergic reaction to ultraviolet rays... But she would have to see a doctor to know for sure.
Looking further down, Lanxi has two older brothers. The eldest brother helps manage the Lan family's businesses, and the second brother is also studying at Lanxing Academy.
"Second Uncle, is it really okay for me to use this identity?"
Ji Jiuying glanced at the information about the Lan family and asked in confusion.
"Jiu'er, don't worry, your second uncle has taken care of everything for you," Feng Che said with a smile.
Ji Jiuying then nodded.
"Let's go inside."
"good."
The two entered the so-called Blue Star Academy one after the other. The moment Ji Jiuying stepped into the barrier, a rich spiritual energy rushed towards her. She thought the spiritual energy at the outer gate was already rich enough, so it's no wonder that so many people want to come to this academy.
At this moment, the evil fire in the space spoke up: "This academy is truly extraordinary; it has a massive spiritual vein beneath it."
Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across Ji Jiuying's eyes. This academy is so big, how big must the spiritual veins beneath it be!
The huge square was almost deserted; perhaps it was time for students to practice and attend classes.
They followed Feng Che for a long time, and finally arrived at a quiet bamboo forest.
"Second Uncle, is this where you live?"
Feng Che shook his head. "This is Xiao Yichen's courtyard at Blue Star Academy."
As soon as Ji Jiuying stepped inside, someone suddenly rushed up from behind and blocked her way.
"Oh my, Brother Feng, is this the niece you've been talking about all along? She doesn't seem to be anything special to me."
The newcomer brought his face close to Ji Jiuying's. Ji Jiuying frowned and struck out with her palm, but the man easily dodged it by turning to the side.
The man's smile deepened; this little girl was quite skilled.
"Yi Chen, don't frighten Jiu'er."
Feng Che said helplessly. Ji Jiuying looked at the man in front of her who was about the same age as Feng Che. Was this the dean of Blue Star Academy? She thought he would be an old man with white hair, but she didn't expect him to be so young.
“Jiu’er, he is the Xiao Yichen that your uncle told you about, who is also the dean of Blue Star.”
Feng Che pulled Ji Jiuying aside and explained. Ji Jiuying nodded and looked at the uncle who was smiling at her: "Hello, Dean."
"Don't call me Dean this or that, just call me Uncle Xiao."
Ji Jiuying: ······
As Xiao Yichen spoke, he sized up Ji Jiuying, his eyes narrowing. With a wave of his hand, a gentle breeze swept by, revealing Ji Jiuying's true appearance. Xiao Yichen was completely stunned.
"Beautiful, so incredibly beautiful! This is the kind of beauty that Lan's daughter should have."
Ji Jiuying and Hei Xiangling in the space were also surprised. Xiao Yichen could actually see through her illusion and break it! However, Xiao Yichen was the dean of Blue Star Academy at such a young age, so he must be extraordinary.
At the same time, the fleeting look of affection in Xiao Yichen's eyes did not escape Ji Jiuying's notice. Ji Jiuying raised an eyebrow. It seemed that Xiao Yichen liked her mother.
Feng Che frowned in displeasure, his tone somewhat stern: "Yi Chen!"
"Alright, alright, I just wanted to see if she inherited Lan's unparalleled beauty!"
Xiao Yichen smiled, but Ji Jiuying felt that ever since he saw her face, the way he looked at her had changed, though she couldn't quite put her finger on why.
“Jiu’er, with your current strength, staying at the academy is the best choice. Yi Chen will investigate the matter of the Soul-Locking Needle with you. During this time, I will be investigating Lan’er’s disappearance in Jade City. If you need anything, just take the jade pendant to find me.” As Feng Che spoke, he placed the repaired jade pendant in Ji Jiu Ying’s hand.
Ji Jiuying looked at the jade pendant in her hand with excitement. She thought that the jade pendant her mother left her had fallen into the void world. Fortunately, it hadn't. Coming back to her senses, she looked at Feng Che with doubt. Feng Che saw her doubt and explained, "I found this jade pendant in that giant pit in the Dragon Abyss Forest."
Ji Jiuying suddenly realized that she had fallen there. At the time, she was seriously injured and couldn't care less about anything else.
"Jiu'er, you are currently using the identity of Lan Xi. Although many people do not know Lan Xi, it is not that no one is unaware of her. So for the time being, you should report to the Array Sect."
"good."
"If there's any accommodation available, it's at..."
"Stop, stop, stop!" Xiao Yichen stepped forward and interrupted Feng Che. "Brother Feng, as the dean of this academy, I should be in charge of arranging Jiu'er's accommodation."
Feng Che frowned, "Jiu'er can just stay on my Kunlun Peak."
"How can that be? Jiu'er is a girl, how can she live in a house that a grown man like you has lived in?"
"I'm his uncle!"
"Even my own uncle won't do!"
"·····"
Ji Jiuying watched the two arguing, her lips twitching slightly.
"Then where do you think Jiu'er would be suitable to live?"
Xiao Yichen's lips curled up slightly, "Of course, only a beautiful environment like Immortal Forest Peak is worthy of Jiu'er, isn't it?"
Feng Che remained silent for a long time. This Immortal Forest Peak could be said to be the best peak on Blue Star. On Blue Star, only one person was qualified to live on this peak, and that was Xiao Yichen's only disciple, Shui Bing'er.
Ever since Shui Bing'er ascended to godhood, this Immortal Forest Peak has remained empty.
That's where the gods once lived. Who wouldn't want to go in and stay there? Countless people on Earth wanted to apply to stay there, but Xiao Yichen refused.
"Yichen, have you ever considered how much unnecessary trouble Jiu'er will suffer living on this Immortal Forest Peak?"
A cold glint flashed in Xiao Yichen's unrestrained eyes. "If Jiu'er were to become my disciple, let's see who would dare to disobey?"
Before Feng Che could speak, Ji Jiuying said, "I'm sorry, Dean, I already have a master."
Although Old Man Yu isn't here, since I've already taken him as my master, how can I betray my faith and take someone else as my master?
Xiao Yichen's eyes widened, but he was no longer calm.
"What? Someone beat them to it! Who was it? Who could it be?!"
“Jiu’er’s master is Guixu,” Feng Che said.
Upon hearing the name, Xiao Yichen was startled for a moment. Gui Xu? The same Gui Xu who had disappeared for over a hundred years? Xiao Yichen's eyes darted around, clearly unwilling to give up. Then, as if remembering something, a smile appeared in his eyes.
"So it's that old man Guixu. He's practically family now. By seniority, you should call me Uncle-Master."
