Chapter 048: Suspicious
The night passed quickly.
Early the next morning, Ji Tianxing finished his cultivation and walked out of the secret room.
At this time, his sword fetus had grown by three percent, and his skills had also been greatly improved, and his strength had improved a lot.
He had just finished breakfast and was about to continue his retreat when Huan'er suddenly came to report the news that the little princess Keke was here again!
Ji Tianxing was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a playful smile.
"Counting the time, she has indeed returned to the Imperial City. ”
"However, she went to the Taiye Mountains to look for the Red Star Flower this time, but she ran in vain, I'm afraid she came here today for this matter, right?"
With this in mind, he walked out into the courtyard to greet Keke.
A moment later, Ji Ke, who was wearing a goose yellow dress, walked into the small courtyard with a large internal guard.
She was still dressed cutely today, but with a hint of anger and tiredness on her pretty face, she pouted, obviously unhappy.
"Brother Tianxing, I'm back. ”
She said hello to Ji Tianxing, and after entering the room and taking a seat, she said in a somewhat depressed mood: "Brother Tianxing, I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long." ”
"I went a step late, I didn't grab the red star flower, and I disappointed you......"
Ji Tianxing had already known the result, of course, he couldn't talk about disappointment, and comforted her with a smile: "It's okay Keke, you have this heart, I'm already very grateful." ”
The little princess was still very depressed, and muttered angrily: "It's all my uncle's fault, it's so hateful, he actually snatched the Red Star Flower!"
"After he took the Red Star Flower, he practiced in retreat for two days, and he actually repaired the dantian, and his strength reached the True Yuan Realm!"
"Huh?" Ji Tianxing's face suddenly changed and he frowned.
"Keke, did your imperial uncle snatch the Red Star Flower......? Luo Yan Wang Ji Ling?"
"yes, who else is he or not?"
The little princess nodded, and the expression on her pretty face became more and more depressed.
"Uncle Huang, like my imperial grandfather, is a congenital dantian with broken fields, and he can't cultivate the True Yuan in this life, he can only stay in the body refining realm, he has long coveted the Red Star Flower. ”
"He sits in the two states of Luoyan and has attracted so many masters, of course it is easy to get the Red Star Flower. ”
"It's a pity that I went one step late, otherwise I would definitely grab the ...... of the Red Star Flower"
Ji Tianxing silently listened to the little princess complaining, but his heart was full of shock and doubt.
Luo Yan Wang Ji Ling's dantian was congenitally damaged, this matter is not a secret, most people know about it.
Ji Ling wanted to get the red star flower to repair the damaged dantian, which was also reasonable.
But Ji Tianxing knew very well that there was only one Red Star Flower, and the people who got the Red Star Flower were him and Yun Yao, and it was definitely not the little prince Ji Ling!
Therefore, after hearing the little princess's words, his first reaction was to think of Yun Yao.
"Could it be that Yun Yao took the stamen of the Red Star Flower from me and gave it to Ji Ling?"
Thinking of this, he felt a little blocked in his heart.
He tentatively asked the little princess, "Keke, how do you know about this? How did your imperial uncle get the Red Star Flower? Did someone give it to him?"
The little princess was simple-minded, and she completely trusted Ji Tianxing, and she didn't notice anything unusual.
She replied truthfully: "Yesterday, there was news from the Lingyan Palace, and I learned that Uncle Huang had been in retreat for two days, had repaired the dantian, and had reached the True Yuan Realm. ”
"I guessed that he must have taken the Red Star Flower, so I went to the Lingyan Palace to question him in person. ”
He admitted it himself, and he did take the Red Star Flower. As for the origin of the Red Star Flower, he said that it was snatched by the masters under his command. ”
"I also quietly investigated afterwards, and this is indeed the case, and many masters of the Lingyan Palace can testify. ”
Hearing this, Ji Tianxing's expression became more and more solemn, and the doubts in his heart became even worse.
"With Yun Yao's status, it is impossible to go to the Taiyuan Mountains in person to help the little prince snatch the Red Star Flower. ”
"The little prince obviously didn't get the Red Star Flower, but he said that his subordinate master grabbed the Red Star Flower, he must be lying!"
"But why did he lie and make an announcement?"
"Could it be...... Little Wang Ye just used the Red Star Flower as an excuse to conceal the real reason why he repaired the dantian and reached the strength of the True Yuan Realm?"
With Ji Tianxing's intelligence, he analyzed the crux of the problem in just a few moments.
Guessing this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he remembered something!
"The little prince didn't take the Red Star Flower, so what means did he use to repair the dantian?"
"Divine Jewel! Yes, the Divine Pearl!"
"Perhaps, after Ling Yunfei poached the Divine Snatching Bead from my body, she didn't refine it, but gave it to the little prince?"
"The little prince has been hiding this matter until Chixinghua appeared, and he finally found an excuse to deliberately lie and release such news?"
"If this is the case, in addition to Ling Yunfei, wouldn't the person who murdered me have to add a little prince Ji Ling?!"
Thinking of this, Ji Tianxing felt cold all over his body, and his heart swelled with unparalleled anger and murderous aura!
He had secretly made up his mind to find an opportunity to test Ling Yunfei's strength.
His inferences and suspicions will be confirmed!
At this time, the little princess saw that he had been silent and his expression was very gloomy, so she couldn't help but ask, "Brother Tianxing, what's wrong with you?"
When Ji Tianxing came back to his senses, he suppressed the anger and murderous aura in his heart, and shook his head calmly.
The little princess showed a guilty expression on her face, pulled his arm and whispered, "Brother Tianxing, I'm sorry, I didn't grab the Red Star Flower and couldn't help you." ”
"However, Brother Tianxing, don't worry, I will find other ways to help you. ”
"Don't be discouraged, I'm sure there must be other ways to help you regain your strength!"
Ji Tianxing nodded, revealing a hint of a smile, "Don't worry, Keke, I won't give up easily, and I'm already slowly recovering, don't worry about me." ”
Regarding his acquisition of the Red Star Flower and the restoration of the strength of the True Yuan Realm, of course, it was to be kept secret.
Although he believes in the little princess very much, this is his secret and cannot be revealed for the time being.
The little princess chatted with him for a while, and then gave him a few words of concern before leaving with the guard.
Ji Tianxing sent the little princess out of the Qingfeng courtyard and returned to the room with a gloomy face.
He decided to investigate the whereabouts of the Divine Bead as soon as possible, looking for an opportunity to test Ling Yunfei's strength.
If things were really as he guessed, and the little prince and the Ling family teamed up to deal with him, then he would face unimaginable danger.
Even, even the Ji family will be implicated.
Ji Tianxing pondered for a while, then took out a pen and paper and wrote a letter by hand, sealed it with fire paint, and handed it to the guards at the gate of the small courtyard.
"Send this letter to the Ling family, you must hand it over to Ling Yunfei in person!"
"Obey!" the middle-aged guard respectfully clenched his fists and carefully put away the letter.
Then he left the Qingfeng courtyard and immediately rushed to Ling's house.
Ji Tianxing returned to the room and entered the secret room to practice again.
He had made an appointment with Ling Yunfei to meet alone tonight in the plum garden in the western suburbs outside the imperial city.
When the time comes, he will test Ling Yunfei's strength.
And before that, he still has to practice for a few hours, and then improve his success, just in case.
......
In the Ling family's mansion, in a quiet and elegant courtyard.
Under the leafy banyan tree, a beautiful girl and a young man in a white robe were sitting opposite each other at the stone table.
The girl in the light green dress is Ling Yunfei, and the white-robed young man with a feminine temperament is the little prince.
The two talked while drinking tea, and Ling Yunfei let out a charming smile or two from time to time.
Suddenly, the young guard guarding the gate of the courtyard walked into the small courtyard and walked quickly to Ling Yunfei's side.
After saluting, the young guard respectfully handed over a letter.
"Miss, the letter sent by the Ji family said that it was going to be handed over to you. ”
"Oh, the letter from the Ji family?" Ling Yunfei raised her eyebrows, a playful sneer on the corner of her mouth, and reached out to take the letter.
There was no word on the envelope, and she glanced at the little prince before opening the letter.
The content of this letter is not much, only three short sentences, but the name of the letter is Ji Tianxing.
After reading the letter, the sneer on Ling Yunfei's face became even stronger.
Seeing that the little prince showed an inquiring look, she took the initiative to explain: "Ji Tianxing, that waste, asked me to meet in the plum garden in the western suburbs tonight, saying that he was looking for me for something." ”
"Hehe, this guy went to the Taiye Mountains once, and he didn't die there, and he dared to take the initiative to ask me to meet?
"I'll take him upon myself tonight! ”
The little prince raised his eyebrows and reminded: "Fei Fei, don't take it lightly, Ji Tianxing should not be underestimated. ”
"Why don't you go with you?"
Ling Yunfei smiled and shook her head, refusing.
"What threat can a waste who will never return to the True Yuan Realm?
