Chapter 7: A Transaction
Listening to Ji Chen's crying voice, Jade wanted to laugh a little, thinking that this kid was too fragile, right?
"Don't be too pessimistic, I'm only talking about the worst-case scenario, as long as you use less power in the future, your heart will not be swallowed up"
"Really, really?"
Hearing Yu Shi say this, Ji Chen's heart rekindled hope.
"Do I need to lie to you? Also, you can call me by my name in the future-Xi, don't call me old jade jade."
"Xi? Just one word, then how about I just call you Jade Xi?
Ji Chen swept away his previous depression and actually began to ridicule the name of jade.
"Whatever you want, it's just a title"
Hearing Ji Chen call him Jade Seal, Jade didn't bother, he just thought it wasn't too ugly.
Although nothing could be seen in this dark space, the sound of the two talking made the space less deserted.
Although Ji Chen was a little difficult to accept what Yu Xi said before, he did not doubt its authenticity, thinking that a treasure like it would not deceive ordinary people like him, because it would not be of any benefit to it.
Ji Chen simply stopped thinking about that, after all, there were things that he couldn't understand now, maybe one day he would naturally understand.
"Yuxi, where are you from?"
"How many years have you been around?"
......
"Also, what did you mean by choosing me last time?"
Ji Chen had a lot of questions in his heart, and he asked them at this moment.
Jade Shi was silent for a while, and said slowly: "I can't remember some questions myself, so I can't answer you." ”
"As for choosing you, it's not so much a choice as fate, have you ever wondered why I appeared in the desert, why was it discovered by your sister, and why is it in your hands now, and was awakened by you?"
"Maybe it's just a coincidence, right?" Ji Chen scratched his head and said what he thought.
"Is it just a coincidence? maybe, fate is such a mysterious and mysterious thing, I still haven't understood it, but since I met you, it means that you and I are destined."
Ji Chen thought about Yuxi's words, he had never thought about these questions, maybe everything was a coincidence as he said, or there was really a force in the dark that controlled all living beings.
"Since we have fate, how about we make a deal?" Yuxi suddenly became serious, and the atmosphere was suddenly a little depressed.
"Deal, what deal?" Ji Chen's face was full of doubts, thinking that he didn't have anything to make Yuxi look at it, right?
"I can help you with all my might during your years of cultivation, you must know that no one in this world may refuse my help."
"Then what am I going to give you?" Since it was a deal, Ji Chen certainly wouldn't think that Yuxi would help him like this for nothing.
"I don't want anything from you, in exchange for you doing something for me"
"What do you want me to do?"
"There's still a long way to go, I don't know where you can go, and it's useless to tell you now, in short, it won't be a hurtful thing"
"Tell me now, do you agree?"
Ji Chen thought a lot at the moment, from the beginning of his cultivation, he experienced the first big ups and downs in his life, from a genius who was in the limelight to a waste who was ridiculed and despised by everyone.
And now because of the jade seal, he seems to be getting back what he lost before little by little, if he gives up this opportunity, then he is likely to return to the way he used to be, which he can't do.
"Deal!" Ji Chen replied firmly.
As soon as Ji Chen's words fell, the pitch-black space suddenly brightened, and the light was like a candle flame, shining outward from the center of the space.
Due to being in the dark for a long time, the sudden light made Ji Chen a little uncomfortable, but fortunately, the light was very soft, and Ji Chen rubbed his eyes and basically got used to it.
It is an enclosed space, the walls around it are dark green, the smell is extremely ancient, there are no doors or windows in the space, it looks like there is nothing, but it gives people a very mysterious feeling.
Just as Ji Chen was carefully looking at this space, the voice of the jade seal sounded in his ears again:
"You can come and go as you like this space in the future."
"Huh, where are you, why can't I see you?" Ji Chen could only hear Yuxi's voice but couldn't see it, so he asked suspiciously.
"I'm just a spirit, of course you can't see me", Yuxi said lightly.
"Oh, can I come in at any time now?"
"This was the case before the demonic qi was exhausted, if you hadn't been able to reach the Five Elements Spirit Realm after the demonic qi was exhausted, then you wouldn't be able to come in again."
There was a hint of warning in Jade's words, reminding Ji Chen to hurry up and improve his cultivation.
"How long can you last?" Ji Chen asked hurriedly.
"Less than two months," Jade said softly.
"Ah, then wouldn't I have to step into the Five Elements Spirit Realm within two months?"
Ji Chen felt a lot of pressure, not to mention that he was only refining the Seventh Rank now, even if it was the Ninth Refining Body, it would be extremely difficult to break through to the Five Elements Spirit Realm within two months.
"Not bad, so you have to hurry"
"I, do your best!" Ji Chen didn't dare to guarantee that he would be able to do it, but he would definitely try his best to do it.
"In that case, you should go out first, you have been in a coma for a day and a night, and your family is quite worried about you"
Ji Chen had been in a coma for a day and a night, and Yuxi also felt the anxious mood of Ji Chen's family, so he let Ji Chen out.
"Yes, I forgot that I've been in a coma for so long, my father and mother must be worried about dying!
Ji Chen could also imagine how anxious his parents and sister would be when he had been in a coma, so he was about to leave as soon as his mind moved.
"Remember, don't tell anyone about what's going on here, including your sister, when you go out, or you'll regret it if something goes wrong."
Seeing that Ji Chen was about to leave, Yuxi was afraid that something uncontrollable would happen, so he instructed Ji Chen.
"Okay, I see, don't worry"
Ji Chen understood the meaning of the jade seal, and he also knew that if the news of a treasure like the jade seal leaked out, I was afraid that it would cause trouble to the Ji family.
Watching Ji Chen's body slowly twist until it disappeared, Yuxi sighed: "I hope you are different from those people in the past, I can't wait anymore, you will be my last hope, fate!"
After a while, Ji Chen left the space, and outside the space, there was a woman lying on the side of Ji Chen's bed, probably asleep, and there were still some tears in the corners of the woman's eyes, this woman was Ji Chen's mother Xue Jingyun.
Ji Chen slowly opened his eyes, and the familiar room slowly appeared in front of his eyes, and at this moment he could clearly feel the jade suspended in his body.
Ji Chen looked at the woman lying next to his bed, Ji Chen was a little distressed, "Mother?" Ji Chen sat up and called softly.
Hearing Ji Chen's voice, Xue Jingyun hurriedly got up and looked at Ji Chen, "Chen'er......, are you awake?
"Don't cry, mother, isn't this okay for me?" Ji Chen held Xue Jingyun's hand and comforted him.
Xue Jingyun wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, poked her head with her slender fingers, and said with some reproach:
"You kid is really not worry-free, what kind of hatred do you have with that Ji Lin, do you have to fight to the death?"
"Mother, you don't know that Ji Lin is really too deceitful, he not only wants to rob Mu Shi's cohesion fruit, but also kills me, if I don't fight back, you won't be able to see me today."
Ji Chen looked at Xue Jingyun, who was a little angry, and had to defend aggrievedly.
"That Ji Lin is also ruthless, he is also a child of the Ji family, and he actually did this!" Xue Jingyun was very angry at the viciousness.
"Okay, mother, that Ji Lin must not be much better, why bother with a Ji Lin, now that my cultivation talent has returned, you should be happy for me."
"You, I really don't know if your cultivation is a blessing or a curse in the end!" Xue Jingyun said thoughtfully.
Just as the two were talking, Ji Chen's door was pushed open, Ji Dongfang strode in, Ji Xuan'er also came to see Ji Chen with Ji Dongfang, and when they saw that Ji Chen had woken up, both of them showed surprised looks.
"Brother, you finally woke up, my mother has been taking care of you all day and night, and she refused to let me stay here when I said I"
Ji Xuan'er ran over and took Xue Jingyun's hand and said to Ji Chen.
"Can I rest assured that you're sloppy and sloppy here?" Xue Jingyun chuckled as she pinched Ji Xuan'er's pink little face.
Ji Chen looked at his mother and sister talking and laughing, and felt much more down-to-earth in his heart.
"You're a good kid now?"
Although Ji Dongfang is usually strict with Ji Chen, he can't be strict at all at this moment.
"Hehe, Dad, am I causing trouble for you again?" Ji Chen asked with a smile.
Before Ji Dongfang could speak, Ji Xuan'er took the words: "Dad saw that you had been unconscious, and in a fit of anger, he took Qinglongwei to kill the old thief Ji Kun's house, and wanted to ask you for an explanation, and in the end he almost fought hard."
Ji Chen's heart was the warmest when he heard this, although Ji Dongfang was usually very strict with Ji Chen, but the so-called father's love was silent, and a father could give up his life for his children.
"And then?"
"Later, if it weren't for the Great Elder Changqing to come forward to adjust, tsk, the consequences would be unimaginable", Ji Xuan'er smacked her lips as she spoke.
"This matter even alarmed the Great Elder of Changqing, so they didn't embarrass their father, right?" Ji Chen looked at Ji Dongfang, his eyes full of concern.
"The Great Elder of Changqing is also a sensible person, and after he knew what was going on, he also reprimanded Ji Kun and asked him to discipline Ji Lin well."
Ji Dongfang paused for a moment and said: "Xiaochen, you also know that the Ji family has always been like this, as long as it is not a big problem, it will generally be solved, if you kill that Ji Lin that day, we will be the ones who suffer now."
Ji Chen scratched his head when he heard this, in fact, it was he who was going to kill Ji Lin that day after being eroded by demonic energy, if he was sober, then he would definitely not do that.
Because as Ji Dongfang said, although the Ji family cannot prohibit infighting, if someone is beaten to death, it will be a big problem, and the senior management of the Ji family will give an explanation to the family of the deceased
"Dad, I understand", Ji Chen nodded.
"Okay, Xiaochen just woke up today, let him have a good rest, let's go back", Ji Dongfang said to Xue Jingyun and Ji Xuan'er.
"Okay, Chen'er, you can rest well!Let's go first", Xue Jingyun pulled Ji Xuan'er and said to Ji Chen.
Ji Chen was indeed tired, on the one hand, the injuries on his body were not good, on the other hand, after coming out of the space, he felt dizzy, and he fell asleep after a while.
