Fighting.

The moonlight was dim and the sky was full of snow.

"Master, hurry back to the house, it's not a way for you to always stand here and wait in this freezing cold day."

The woman, who was about thirty years old, wore a richly patterned brown and red brocade embroidered dress, and carefully dressed the man standing quietly under the eaves in a gorgeous mink coat, and her originally somewhat timid eyes were already filled with a little anxiety and concern.

This snow is not ordinary snow. Even if a cultivator accidentally touches some, he may have the worry of being soaked in the cold.

The man's expression was grim, and the frost and snow between his eyebrows seemed to be heavier than the goose feather snow outside the house.

Stretched out his hand to straighten the thick mink fur, but his gaze still did not change at all, through the two main doors that were open dozens of feet away, motionless looking at the dozens of figures densely moving away in the moonlight.

"Master, don't worry too much, take care of your body," the concern in the woman's eyes didn't seem to be fake, "With Commander Xu Jianghe personally leading people to look for it, I think I will be able to find Nian'er back soon." ”

"Shut up!"

The man turned his head suddenly, and the cold light in his eyes swept on the woman's fair and pretty face, making her shiver fiercely, and she involuntarily knelt directly on the ground.

"Master, concubine...... The concubine is really worried about the safety of Nian'er, master, you ......"

Syllable!

The woman was directly stumped by this sudden slap, and a bright red slap mark appeared on the left side of her face, and there was even a trace of blood oozing from her pampered face.

"If Nian'er really dies in the Qingluan Mountain Range, I will sweep you and your daughter out of my Ji family's courtyard together!"

The man was like an angry lion, and there was even a little bloodshot in his eyes, obviously angry to the extreme.

"Nian'er is supported by more than a dozen Ji family mansion troops by his side, how could he disappear in the Qingluan Mountains so silently? It must be you, a poisonous woman, who is unwilling to be mediocre with Ji Quexue, and wants to seek for her the position given to the Ji family by the ancient city of Taichu, so she set such a trap to murder Nian'er! ”

The woman fell to her knees, hiding her face and weeping, tears flowing down like beads of broken threads, even soaking the intricate brocade sleeve robe.

As the continuation of Ji Hong, the head of the Ji family, she has been serving carefully for more than ten years, taking care of everything in the Ji family in an orderly manner, and has been praised inside and outside the Ji family.

Although she was very envious of Ji Yuenian, the eldest son of the Ji family, had an irreplaceable position in the Ji family, she never dared to act recklessly, and even Ji Quexue, the daughter of the Ji family born to Ji Hong, was a little cowardly in front of Ji Yuenian, and there was never a situation where the descendants of the heads of the families in the Taichu Ancient City competed with each other.

Not long ago, Hexuan Shangzhen, who was in charge of the ancient city of Taichu, handed down the first edict after being stationed here for more than 30 years, the Taiyu Holy Sect, the strongest sect within the Yuanyan realm, was about to open the mountain gate, recruit disciples from the nineteen ancient cities under his rule, and participate in the assessment of entering the outer sect of the Taiyu Holy Sect.

Several cultivation families entrenched in the ancient city of Taichu are all extremely wealthy, and they usually have a lot of respect for Hexuanshang's true filial piety, and this time it is logical to get a position that can enter the outer sect of the Taiyu Holy Sect without assessment, and this position of the Ji family fell on the body of Ji Yuenian, the eldest son of the Ji family, without any suspense.

The foundation of whether a living soul can practice or not lies in the fire of the heart, and whether the fire can really ignite is not only related to the bloodline, but also related to the cultivation resources obtained the day after tomorrow, so the descendants of the cultivation family almost never have the worry of not being able to ignite the fire in the heart.

The woman looked up with teary eyes, her lips twitched slightly, but she could not say a word.

Although Ji Yuenian was not heard from in the Qingluan Mountain Range, she knew very well that with Ji Hong's character, it was impossible to listen to her explanation, if she really didn't find Ji Yuenian, then she and Ji Quexue ...... I'm afraid that Ji Hong will really be swept away!

Thinking of this, the woman even crawled and knelt at Ji Hong's feet, and said in a trembling voice: "Master, I really didn't do it, it's really not me, master!" ”

Ji Hong squatted down and gently supported the woman's somewhat trembling shoulders, his eyes were full of indifference: "For a full day, there was no news of Nian'er, those old immortals of the Ji Patriarch's Association and the cow ghosts and snake gods next to the Ji family all jumped out, and Xu Jianghe was already the fourth wave of people to look for." I only have two blood descendants in the Ji family, Nian'er and Ji Quexue, and Ji Quexue is a woman. ”

At the end of these words, the woman subconsciously stopped trembling. She is not stupid, and she is even very smart in some aspects, and at this time, under the flow of thoughts, she figured out what was going on in an instant, but her face became more and more difficult to see.

If the eldest prince Ji Yuenian really died in the rumored Qingluan Mountain Range, which was rampant with demons and ghosts, she was afraid that the huge pressure that Ji Hong faced was beyond her imagination.

There are many collateral factions within the Ji family, and these collateral forces are intertwined, although Ji Hong is not only the head of the family, but also the second elder of the Ji Patriarchal Association, even he has no way to completely control all the collateral forces of the Ji family.

"Think about it, if Nian'er disappears completely, who will this position given by Hexuan really fall on?"

Ji Hong gradually removed the coldness in his eyes, and his tone was much softer.

The woman said in a trembling voice: "Ji Baiyu, who is only one year younger than her child!" It's the Great Elder Ji Luoyan! It must have been Ji Luoyan who bought off the guards around Nian'er and brought Nian'er into the Qingluan Mountains! ”

Ji Hong looked at her silently and didn't say a word.

"Master, what do you mean," the woman's expression was a little dazed, "let me and Quexue confess this crime?" ”

"Ji Luoyan is a great elder, and his power in the Ji family is second only to my family master," Ji Hong was still expressionless, "At this time, if I can't find Nian'er, even if I attack him directly, it will not be of much benefit to me, but it will make Ji Luoyan seize the handle and take the opportunity to send Ji Baiyu to the stage." ”

The woman was so weeping that she could not utter half a complete sentence.

"Lian'er, I've wronged you, let's go out and hide for a while."

Ji Hong's voice came to his ears.

The woman's body shook slightly, and she was directly stunned in place.

Over the years, no matter how well she did and how careful she was, she had never received a word of praise from Ji Hong.

And just now, he actually called himself a "ripple".

"Master, you ......"

"Don't worry, after Xu Jianghe returns tomorrow, I will take the opportunity to be angry and angry with you and Ji Quexue, and then secretly send the two of you to a safe place, and then take this opportunity to support the top position in the third room, and will not leave any opportunity for Ji Luoyan to take advantage of."

Ji Hong stood up and turned his head, but a cold light flashed in his eyes that the woman had never noticed.
