Chapter 008: The Ji Family's Situation
In the hospitality lobby, Master Xue was chatting and laughing with Ling Yunfei.
At this moment, two Tsing Yi guards suddenly rushed into the lobby in a hurry, and their voices were eager to report.
"Elder Xue, something is wrong! Ji Tianxing killed Gu Hao, the third young master of the Gu family, in public!"
"Qi Qi Xue Lao, this incident just happened, just outside the gate of the medicine hall, Gu Hao was killed by Ji Tianxing with a palm!"
Suddenly hearing this news, Master Xue and Ling Yunfei's conversation and laughter stopped abruptly, and their faces changed.
Master Xue frowned, and shouted with a fierce look in his eyes: "What? Ji Tianxing dared to kill Gu Hao in public outside the gate of the Elixir Hall?"
"This bastard thing, is it because he asked to see the old man and was refused, so he killed people in the street in shame?"
Master Xue's face was a little gloomy, his expression was uncertain, and he was weighing in his heart what follow-up effects and troubles this matter might bring.
Ling Yunfei also frowned, and muttered with a look of surprise: "Ji Tianxing actually killed Gu Hao?"
"How is this possible? He has obviously become a waste of the threefold body refining realm, how can he beat Gu Hao, who is the fifth level of body refining, and he can still be killed with one palm?"
Ling Yunfei's eyes became cold, and she secretly thought in her heart: "No, I have to discuss with the little prince quickly, and find a way to get rid of Ji Tianxing as soon as possible, I'm afraid that there will be another variable!"
So, Ling Yunfei exchanged a few words with Master Xue, and then found an excuse to leave.
After she left, Master Xue ordered the two Tsing Yi guards: "You two, go and take care of Gu Hao's body now, and send someone to report to the Gu family." ”
"There is a debtor who is wronged, this matter has nothing to do with my Elixir Hall, and the people of the Gu family will naturally go to the Ji family to discuss the law. ”
The two Tsing Yi guards gave up their orders and turned to leave the lobby.
......
Ji Tianxing's carriage returned to Ji Mansion.
As soon as he and Huan'er got out of the carriage, a young servant came to spread the word that the master was waiting for him in the study.
"Father got the news that I killed Gu Hao so soon?"
Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows and muttered in a low voice: "No, my father must have something else to do with me." ”
So, he asked Huan'er to go back to the room alone and go to the study in the main courtyard by himself.
When he arrived at the door of the study, before Ji Tianxing entered the house, he heard a violent cough.
He hurriedly stepped into the study and saw that his father Ji Changkong was the only one in the study.
Ji Changkong sat on the rattan chair behind the bookcase, his face was yellow, his spirit was very haggard, and a few strands of white hair appeared from his black hair, which was particularly conspicuous.
He covered his mouth with a handkerchief, tried to suppress the cough, and his breathing became much heavier.
Ji Tianxing glanced at his father's handkerchief and saw that the white handkerchief was stained with scarlet blood.
At this time, Ji Changkong saw him enter the study, so he quietly put away his handkerchief and hid it in his sleeve.
Ji Changkong barely squeezed out a smile, and asked in a somewhat hoarse voice: "Tianxing, you are here, your body ...... Are you better?"
Seeing his father's appearance, Ji Tianxing was a little sad, and said with a worried face: "Father, my body is fine, you don't need to worry." ”
"It's your body...... Have you seen it with a doctor?"
Ji Changkong waved his hand and said, "Tianxing, don't worry about me, it's just that the old injury has recurred, the doctor has seen it, it's nothing." ”
Ji Tianxing was silent, but the fists in his sleeves were secretly clenched, and his mood became heavier and heavier.
He knew very well that since his father fought with the Sword Sect Lord ten years ago, his internal organs had been left with secret wounds.
After some miracle doctors saw it, they all said that this dark wound could not be cured, and they could only be carefully recuperated every day.
Moreover, Ji Changkong can no longer use the true yuan, otherwise he will have to reduce his lifespan, and it is very likely that he will not live to be fifty years old.
In recent years, Ji Changkong's secret injuries have recurred several times, and each time he was tormented, he was in pain, and he grew old several years overnight.
At this time, Ji Changkong interrupted Ji Tianxing's thoughts, and said with a solemn face: "Tianxing, you have been unconscious before, and your father has no chance to ask you." ”
"Later, my father sent someone to investigate, before you had an accident, you went to Tiange Mountain alone with Ling Yunfei. You fell unconscious that night and were sent back to the house by her. ”
"Father always feels that there is something else wrong with this matter, what happened to you and Ling Yunfei, why did your power dissipate overnight and fall to the triple level of the body refining realm?"
"You tell your father, is this a conspiracy of Ling Yunfei, is it the Ling family that has harmed you like this?"
As he spoke, Ji Changkong's face was as gloomy as ice, and there was a trace of hatred and murder in his eyes.
Obviously, he had already seen the strange thing, and suspected that Ji Tianxing's abolition had something to do with the Ling family.
As the head of the Ji family, one of the four great families, how can his thoughts and methods be comparable to ordinary people?
Even if Ling Yunfei was clever and made up a lot of reasons to clear up this matter, she couldn't escape his suspicions.
After all, the Ji family is a family that has been inherited for nearly a hundred years, and it is one of the four pillars of Qingyun Kingdom.
The Ji family is engaged in forging swords and weapons, and controls nearly half of the forging workshops in Qingyun China.
Most of the millions of soldiers in Qingyun Country use weapons forged by the Ji family.
Countless swordsmen and kendo masters in China use divine swords, and they are also from the hands of the Ji family.
The wealth and power of the Ji family are enough to make the royal family jealous.
Ji Changkong controls the huge Ji family, and can keep the century-old foundation without declining, how can he be a mediocre person?
Ji Tianxing had long expected that his father would definitely suspect the Ling family, but he had not yet investigated the evidence.
Once his father gets the evidence, he will definitely use the wealth and power of the Ji family and take revenge on the Ling family at any cost.
Because he is his father's most beloved son and the most proud genius of the Ji family.
Since he was born, his mother died, and his father felt guilty, so he doted on him and devoted his life to cultivating and teaching him.
Many times, Ji Tianxing felt that even if he killed the crown prince or the emperor one day, his father would not hesitate to rebel for him and break with the Qingyun Dynasty and start a war!
Now that his dantian has been destroyed and he has become a wasted person, his father will never let go of the Ling family, even if he fights until the fish dies and the net is broken!
But this is exactly what Ji Tianxing doesn't want to see.
In the past ten years, the Ji family, which is in full swing, has become the target of public criticism, and I don't know how many forces have tried to bring down the Ji family, and even the royal family has some intention of suppressing the Ji family.
There are also many contradictions within the Ji family, several side disciples are eyeing the position of the head of the family, Ji Changkong's body is getting worse, and his control over the family is gradually declining.
The Ji family's situation is becoming more and more dangerous.
And the Ling family is a family of pills, and their wealth and power are already on par with the Ji family.
Under the management of Ling Yunfei and her father, the Ling family secretly colluded with the royal family, and also gathered many forces and strong people, making the Ling family's power bigger and bigger.
These Ji Tianxing are all seen in their eyes and remembered in their hearts.
He could also guess that Ling Yunfei dared to take off her disguise and attack him, she must have no fear, and even there was a stronger force behind her.
In this case, if the father starts a war against the Ling family in a fit of anger, it will definitely be the Ji family that will eventually fall apart!
Therefore, Ji Tianxing forcibly endured his anger and hatred, hid the matter of snatching the divine pearl in his heart, and did not want to tell his father.
The revenge of the Ling family, he wants to avenge it with his own hands, and he does not want to drag the Ji family into the water.
The pain and humiliation that Ling Yunfei inflicted on him, he also had to return it with his own hands!
Seeing his father ask in person at this moment, he hesitated for a moment, but said in a calm tone: "Father, I have my own plans for this matter, and please don't ask again." ”
"It's imperative that you relax and recuperate. If you fall, the Ji family will be a plate of scattered sand, and you can only be slaughtered. ”
"Tianxing, you...... Alas!" Ji Changkong was anxious and angry in his heart, but Ji Tianxing didn't say anything, and the words he said to his mouth could only be swallowed back, and finally turned into a sigh.
"Tianxing, you are a young genius, you were originally beautiful, but now that you have suffered this blow and calamity, you have not given up on yourself, and you can still remain calm and reasonable, and my father is very relieved. ”
"As a father, I also believe in the infinite way of heaven, and you will definitely be able to rise again!"
