Chapter 1009: Blackmail
More than half a month later, Ye Chunyang appeared in an immortal city called "Zhenyuan City".
Everything here was very familiar. It was the place where he unveiled the Ji family's recruitment list that day, and it was also where the Ji family's mansion was located.
At this time, he was sitting in a teahouse, sipping fragrant tea, and quietly listening to the conversations of the monks passing by.
"Have you heard that the Ji family recruited many Nascent Soul masters to go to the Wuxian Mountains a few days ago, but when they came back, only Master Ji was left. Do you know what happened?"
"Who knows? It is said that when Master Ji came back, masters from the Ji family personally took care of him, and he was seriously injured. This trip may not go well."
"Tsk tsk, I heard that Master Ji recruited six or seven Nascent Soul masters, right? Such a powerful lineup failed. It seems that the Wuxian Mountains are really not a place that ordinary people can set foot on."
"That's right, every mission issued by the Ji family is so dangerous. It would be better for us to take fewer missions from the Ji family in the future."
"Perhaps you don't know yet. In addition to the Ji family, the Chen family also recruited many experts to go to the Wuxian Mountains. The results were the same as the Ji family. The young master Chen also came back in a mess."
"..."
Bursts of noisy discussions came through the teahouse and fell clearly into Ye Chunyang's ears. When he heard the content, he was both weird and smiling.
"I didn't expect that those two dandy boys came back safely. It seems that I came to the right place this time."
Ye Chunyang chuckled, put down the tea cup and left the teahouse.
…
The Ji family's residence.
In a quiet garden, a fat young man was surrounded by Yingying Yanyan, who were either toasting her or playing the piano and dancing. The whole garden was singing and dancing, and the wine and beauties were intoxicating.
"Master Ji, it is said that you got a lot of treasures in the Wuxian Mountains this time. Can you show them to my sisters and me?"
"Yes, yes, the young master's heroic appearance and his ability to come and go freely in the Wuxian Mountains really make our sisters admire us. We have heard that there are so many treasures there. Young master, why don't you let me open my eyes?"
"..."
A soft and waxy voice, with a tangy aroma, sounded in the young man's ears. This man was none other than Fatty Ji, who had just returned from the Wuxian Mountains and had been cultivating for a period of time.
"Who told you that I got a treasure in the Wuxian Mountains?"
With a "click" sound, Ji Dapang suddenly put down the wine glass in his hand, and his expression became gloomy. The surrounding birds and warblers suddenly stopped, and all the beauties were silent for a moment, and they all fell silent.
"I have said that you are not allowed to mention anything about the Wuxian Mountains. Anyone who talks another word will be thrown into the cellar. Are you still interested in asking?" Fatty Ji's face twitched with anger. A fierce look.
The trip to the Wuxian Mountains was a painful memory for him. He had always kept it a secret, and even the elders in the clan rarely mentioned it. It had gradually calmed down after a period of cultivation, but it was brought up again today, which undoubtedly rubbed salt into his wounds. How could he not be extremely frightened and angry?
The faces of all the Yingying Yanyans were pale, and their hearts were trembling as they stood aside.
"Go away, go away! Get out of here! You've ruined your fun by enjoying yourself so much. It's really disappointing!"
Fatty Ji didn't look good and drove all the maids away with his hand.
The maids did not dare to say a word and hurriedly bowed and left.
Big Fatty Ji snorted coldly and showed no interest in staying here anymore. He turned over the table angrily and prepared to leave.
At this moment, a young man dressed as a servant came in from outside the garden. Seeing the gloomy look on his young master's face, he couldn't help but shrink his neck and stepped forward and said, "Master Qi, there is someone outside who wants to see you."
"No! I'm very worried about your young master. I didn't see you even when the King of Heaven came!" Fatty Ji refused without thinking.
"But... the senior said his surname was Ye, and said he had something to give to the young master." The young man trembled, and after hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said.
"Senior named Ye? Is he a Nascent Soul cultivator?"
Fatty Ji paused as he moved forward, then thought of some possibility, and his face suddenly froze.
"Whether that senior is a Nascent Soul cultivator or not, my cultivation level is too low to detect. But judging from this senior's demeanor, he is no different from the elders in the clan when I meet him in the past. I guess he can't be any different." The man looked horrified.
"Where is that senior now?"
Fatty Ji's eyes lit up and he thought to himself, could it really be that person?
"Waiting in the living room now." The young man said hurriedly.
Upon hearing this, Fatty Ji couldn't help but walk as fast as flying. He disappeared into the garden in a few flashes, and when he reappeared, he was already at the Ji family's welcome hall.
There was a person sitting inside, with an ordinary appearance, dressed in black clothes, but with a vague aura, giving him a mysterious and unusual feeling. Seeing the other party's face, Fatty Ji showed excitement and said with great joy: "Senior Ye, it's really you! You are indeed safe and sound!"
"Thanks to Master Ji, this trip is quite safe. However, Master Ji can also return safely. Ye is very happy." The monk in black clothes was Ye Chunyang. He put down the tea cup and looked at Ji Dafa with a smile.
"This junior is also a little more lucky, otherwise I might have been buried in the belly of the python bone monster now." Fatty Ji wiped his forehead, thinking about the situation of his escape that day, he was really frightened.
Ye Chunyang nodded. Although he had already guessed the result, he still couldn't help but ask: "Didn't none of them, Fellow Daoist Ling, come back?"
Fatty Ji was startled, and his expression turned gloomy. After a long time, he sighed, shook his head and said, "That day we accidentally broke into the Python Bone Demon's lair to get Zhixuancao. As a result, we were attacked from both sides. Rouqing Sanxian and others were all destroyed. Master Ling He tried his best to escort me out, but unfortunately he still could not escape the pursuit of the python bone demon, and finally died. "
Ye Chunyang was silent.
At this moment, Fatty Ji remembered something and looked at him with curiosity, saying, "I just heard from my servant that the senior has something to give to the junior. I wonder what it is?"
I remember that this person was swept away by the hurricane after fending off the two transformed demons. I originally thought that he must have returned to hell. Who would have thought that he would actually appear in front of him at this moment? The power of his magical power made Fatty Ji secretly shocked. .
And he still had something to give to himself, which made him extremely confused.
Ye Chunyang smiled, slightly mysterious.
He didn't say much. He turned his palm and a flash of light flashed, and a special jade box appeared.
"What is this?" Fatty Ji had a strange look on his face.
"Master Ji, could you please open it and take a look?" Ye Chunyang said with a smile.
Fatty Ji took the jade box in confusion and opened it with a thought. When he saw what was in the box, his expression suddenly changed. First he was surprised, then overjoyed, and finally extremely excited.
"Zhixuan grass!" Fatty Ji's heart was beating. He looked at Ye Chunyang in disbelief and said, "This grass is obviously in the hands of the python bone demon. How did the senior get it?"
"Master Ji, you don't have to worry about how Ye got this herb, but does the reward that Master Ji promised that day still count?" Ye Chunyang picked up the tea cup and took a sip, smiling nonchalantly.
"Zuoji! Naturally, it will work!" Fatty Ji laughed loudly, "Master Ling, Rouqing Sanxian and others tried their best, even risking their lives, but they still failed to get this herb, and now it is in the hands of the seniors. The senior’s magical power is admirable. Not only will the reward agreed upon before be given, the junior will also triple it!”
"That's very good."
Ye Chunyang nodded with satisfaction.
During this trip, he received the spiritual blood of the golden toad beast and many medicinal materials. Soon he would have to practice in seclusion. During this period, he would definitely spend a huge amount of supplies. Naturally, this fat pig of the Ji family would have to be slaughtered.
Besides, he didn't like the grade of Zhi Xuan Cao, so it would be best to use it to exchange supplies with the Ji family.
"Senior, please wait a moment, junior will order people to deliver the supplies right now!"
Fatty Ji was filled with joy and acted vigorously and resolutely. He immediately gave the order, and the two servants in the mana stage rushed over immediately.
Not long after, when the two servants reappeared, they already had a heavy Qiankun bag in their hands, which they handed over to Ye Chunyang respectfully. After taking a brief inventory, Ye Chunyang showed a satisfied smile.
The supplies here were several times more than what was promised before, enough for him to squander for a while.
However, these alone are not enough to support him to break through the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and more materials need to be prepared.
Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and then he stood up and said goodbye: "Master Ji, now that I have safely handed over the Zhixuan Cao to you, this mission has its beginning and end. You and I can just say goodbye!"
"Senior, stay!"
Fatty Ji's expression changed and he stopped Ye Chunyang.
"What else does Master Ji have to do?" Ye Chunyang looked back indifferently and asked.
Fatty Ji hesitated for a moment, with a harmless smile on his face full of flesh, and said: "Remember, Senior seems to be a casual cultivator? I wonder if you are interested in staying in our Ji family as a guest. If Senior has this intention, I will The Ji family will never treat our seniors badly."
"It turns out that this is what happened. I'm afraid Master Ji will be disappointed. Ye Xianyun Yehe doesn't want to join any force, so he's leaving."
Ye Chunyang refused Fatty Ji's invitation without hesitation, and gradually disappeared outside the Ji family's mansion without looking back, leaving Fatty Ji standing there with a look of sadness on his face.
After leaving Ji Mansion, Ye Chunyang did not leave Zhenyuan City directly. Instead, he walked around and came to a luxurious mansion. A large plaque was engraved with two big gold characters of "Chen Mansion".
After staying outside the mansion for a moment, he walked in with a smile and quickly disappeared into the spacious courtyard of the mansion.
After another hour or so, Ye Chunyang walked out of Chen's mansion again, but this time there was an extra Qiankun bag hanging on his waist, which was full of spiritual energy. It seemed that he had collected many treasures, and there were a lot of them.
But after leaving the Chen Mansion, he touched it with one hand, and the aura of the Qiankun Bag was immediately covered up, making it appear ordinary.
"With these two supplies, I won't have to worry about the rest of my training."
All the way out of Zhenyuan City, Ye Chunyang patted the two bulging Qiankun bags on his waist, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
In fact, Ye Chunyang went there to blackmail Chen Yao, the eldest son of the Chen family. He sent him out in the Wuxian Mountains that day, but today he has become his own money tree, which is really wonderful.
