"Ye Gongzi, we're here."

Ji Yusheng stopped in front of a courtyard, then took out a bronze key and opened the door of the courtyard:

"This courtyard is where my mother lived when she died...... Although no one has lived there for a long time, there are still servants who often come to clean it. ”

"If Ye Gongzi minds, you can also change places to live."

Ye Qingchen walked into the courtyard and looked around.

It's just a small courtyard, but its appearance is much better than many magnificent mansions on the Demon Martial Continent.

Moreover, a jasmine tree that looks like some years old is planted here, so that the courtyard is filled with a faint jasmine fragrance, which is heartwarming.

After looking around, Ye Qingchen nodded and said:

"It's a nice place, but wouldn't you mind?"

He turned to his head and asked:

"After all, this is where your mother lived when she died."

Hearing this, Ji Yusheng's eyes became a little sentimental, and his gaze swept over every corner of this courtyard.

After a while, he sighed and said:

"My mother was gone when I was very young......"

"When she left, I didn't understand why she was lying motionless in bed...... Simply thought she was asleep. ”

Later, I realized that she was really asleep...... Just won't wake up again. ”

After saying this, Ji Yusheng raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes, trying to squeeze out a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm out of shape." ”

"It's okay, when you miss your loved ones, no matter who you are, there will be times when you can't control yourself."

Ye Qingchen walked under the jasmine tree.

There is also a stone table and four stone benches.

This reminded him of the leisurely time when he was in the Demon Martial Continent, when he often sat under the tree with his mother and Ning Suyan and talked and laughed with them.

It took him five days to pass through the "fairy gate".

It's only been five days, but he's already missing them.

Secretly suppressing these thoughts and emotions, Ye Qingchen sat on the stone bench, and then motioned for Ji Yusheng to sit opposite him:

"Don't talk about that...... Do you have any thoughts on the Black Tomb Village bringing people to attack you? ”

"This ......"

Ji Yusheng, who sat opposite Ye Qingchen, was stunned for a moment, scratched his head, and said with some embarrassment:

"I really don't have any ideas...... After all, with my father and the Great Elder to investigate this matter, I don't have to put so much thought into it. ”

"If you do your own research and investigate with others, the results will sometimes be different."

Ye Qingchen said loudly: "What's more, this matter also involves your life and safety." ”

"Think about it, have you offended anyone lately? Or is there any change in your Ji family's recent opponents? ”

"This ......"

Ji Yusheng thought for a while and said:

"Don't hide it from my son, I have an easy-going temperament on weekdays, and I rarely have conflicts with others. Even when there is a conflict with others, I try to tolerate it. ”

"As for those opponents of my Ji family...... To be honest, I don't think they'd spend such unnecessary money to hire someone from the Black Tomb to do it to me. ”

"Oh?" Ye Qingchen was stunned, "How can you see it?" ”

"Because my Ji family has always been the bottom of the five major families in Baiyang City."

As soon as he mentioned this, Ji Yusheng's tone was full of heavy helplessness.

"Whether it is the overall strength or the economy, our Ji family is at the bottom."

Through Ji Yusheng's story, Ye Qingchen also learned that there are five major families in Baiyang City.

They are the Qi family, the Rong family, the Qu family, the Ning family, and the Ji family.

Among them, the Qi family is the head of the five major families.

The Rong family and the Qu family tied for second place.

The Ning family is third.

At the end of the Ji family.

Regarding the overall strength of these families, Ji Yusheng only gave their high-level combat power.

For example, the Qi family, which ranks first among the five major families, has the head of the Qi family and the two great elders of the Qi family.

Their cultivation is all in the late stage of the Dao Realm!

Among them, the head of the Qi family even has a ninth-level cultivation in the Touch Dao Realm.

Just one step away, you can reach the peak of the Touch Dao Realm!

It is the strongest existence in the entire White Yang City!

Those two Great Elders were both at the seventh level of the Touch Dao Realm.

As for the Rong family and the Qu family, there are also strong people who have cultivated in the late stage of the Dao Realm.

But there is only one of them.

And the Ning family, which was higher than the Ji family, had three powerhouses who had reached the peak of the mid-stage cultivation of the Touch Dao Realm.

As for the Ji family......

At present, only Ji Jingwu, the head of the Ji family, is a cultivator at the peak of the sixth level of the Touch Dao Realm.

The rest of the elders were all mid-stage cultivators of the Dao Realm.

In terms of high-level combat power, the Ji family is indeed far inferior to the other four major families.

It's no wonder that Ji Yusheng would say that such a Ji family is not worth the trouble of other opponents at all.

After figuring out the power gap in Baiyang City, Ye Qingchen suddenly turned his mouth and asked:

"Then when will the selection of the young head of your Ji family start?"

"In three days, the young head of my Ji family will be elected."

Ji Yusheng replied: "As long as the number of votes I get can be higher than that of other family candidates, I can rightfully become the young head of the Ji family." ”

To be honest, a family force like the Ji family did not use the inheritance system to elect the young family head, but used this voting mechanism to elect the young family head.

This is relatively rare for Ye Qingchen, who is accustomed to seeing the inheritance system in the Demon Martial Continent.

"Then who is your biggest opponent in this selection of young family masters?" Ye Qingchen asked again.

"Biggest Rival ......"

Ji Yusheng scratched his head and said:

"The biggest opponent should be Ji Fan, the son of the Third Elder."

"Although he is only one year younger than me, his cultivation is higher than mine, and he has now become an immortal at the level of the Mortal Realm."

"It is estimated that it will not be long before he will break through to the second level of the Mortal Realm."

Ji Yusheng's voice was full of envy.

"If you simply consider cultivating talent, then he must be the first choice, and I won't have any chance at all."

Hearing this, Ye Qingchen nodded and said, "Then what is his temperament on weekdays?" ”

"He rarely sees people, and most of the time he spends most of his time in his courtyard and concentrating on cultivation."

"So he's nowhere near as good as me when it comes to dealing with people."

Hearing this answer, Ye Qingchen thought for a while, and suddenly asked out loud:

"What about your brother-in-law? Is he eligible to participate in the selection of the young family head? ”

Ji Yusheng was stunned, and then laughed.

"Ye Gongzi can laugh...... Although our Ji family uses a voting mechanism to select the young family leader, we also attach great importance to the bloodline. ”

"People who are not from my Ji family will never be qualified to participate in the selection of the young family master."

Hearing this, Ye Qingchen's brows moved imperceptibly.

Suddenly, he stood up and said:

"Alright...... You can go and rest now, I'm going to get ready to cultivate. ”

With that, he walked to the house in the courtyard.

Ji Yusheng was stunned for a moment, and then said to Ye Qingchen's back:

"Then Ye Gongzi have a good rest. Later, I'll have someone come and call Ye Gongzi for dinner. ”

"If Ye Gongzi doesn't want to be so troublesome, you can also ask the servant to go to the back kitchen to prepare dinner, and then send it to Ye Gongzi."

"Well, I'm not going to have dinner with you."

Ye Qingchen's voice came from inside.

After Ji Yusheng responded, he left the courtyard.

After entering the room, Ye Qingchen took a closer look.

It's really cleaned a lot, and it doesn't look like it's been uninhabited for a long time.

"With my current strength, if I go all out, I should be able to deal with the immortals of the third level of the Mortal Realm."

Ye Qingchen sat cross-legged on the bed, meditating.

"If you are desperate, you will inevitably not be able to deal with the fourth-level immortals of the Mortal Realm."

"But only if it ...... The gap between each of the small realms in this Mortal Realm is not very large. ”

"But even so, this bit of strength is still not enough in Baiyang City."

"In the case that you can't use the 'Heavenly Punishment Sword Qi', you have to find a way to improve your strength as quickly as possible."

"Tomorrow, I'll ask Ji Yusheng if there are any powerful sects or more powerful family forces nearby. Only then will I have the opportunity to improve my strength at a faster pace. ”

"But until then...... I still have to find out who is secretly planning to murder Ji Yusheng......"

After making a plan in his heart, Ye Qingchen suddenly remembered the rich black qi and golden light rising from both sides during the decisive battle with Situ Wuxian that day.

Since that day, Ye Qingchen had tried many times to try to stimulate that power again.

But the strange thing was that no matter what he did, that kind of golden light would no longer be inspired from the Imperial Sky Sword Vein.

"What kind of power is that...... Why does it appear in the Imperial Sword Vein......"

Ye Qingchen was always puzzled.
