Chapter 383 - Sect Rewards
Chapter 383 of "Longevity through Upgrading Buildings" begins revealing: Liancheng Mountain, within the Water Dragon Sectâs residence.Ji Yuan still only informed Rou Yi about... Continue the adventure!
Liancheng Mountain, within the Water Dragon Sectâs residence.Ji Yuan still only informed Rou Yi about this matter, as for the Isle Master of Cloud Mist and the Master of Bamboo Shadow Island... he still couldnât trust them.
No matter how beautiful those two elder sisters were, what of it?
Ji Yuan is not someone who judges by appearance, nor someone whose lower urges control his higher reasoning.
After all, if he were, he would not have ruthlessly destroyed the flowers deep within the Spirit Vein before.
Even someone as calm as Rou Yi, after hearing Ji Yuanâs account, reacted similarly to Liu Yuan before, sitting in a daze for quite a while, before transmitting a question:
"Junior Brother Ji, do you mean that Xuan Weizi from Medicine King Valley and Danxia from Joy Palace are exploiting the Spirit Vein and stealing Spirit Stones?"
Despite uttering this herself, Rou Yi still felt it was like a tall tale.
"Indeed."
Ji Yuan nodded in confirmation, "They are using this thing..."
"No, no, no, Junior Brother, you donât need to take it out, just show it to the Sect Leader Martial Uncle when they arrive in a couple of days."
After understanding the situation, Rou Yi had no desire to take another look... well, not openly at least; privately she wouldnât dare in case anything happens, she would be responsible.
But once Sect Leader Master Xuan Shui arrives, she will be the first to look.
"Alright."
Ji Yuan helplessly put it away without taking out the black line mass.
Meanwhile, he couldnât help lamenting internally... Damn, is there not an honest soul among them, all slippery and cunning, oh no, they are my comrades, letâs call them smart.
So Ji Yuan got up, sitting beside Liu Yuan, jesting, "Come, Brother Liu, let me show you the thing, you can hold onto it for me if you want."
"No, no, no."
Liu Yuan was startled, quickly standing up and waving repeatedly, "Brother Ji, just keep it with you, keep it with you."
Ji Yuan spread his hands, "In the end, itâs I who bears it all, sigh."
Rou Yi, after touching the Great Sword behind her for assurance, said, "We canât be careless; it will take the sectâs Golden Core Zhenren three days to arrive. Itâs been less than two days now, thereâs still a day and a half remaining... we must guard against the other two parties."
Speaking of serious matters, Ji Yuan and the others stopped fooling around.
Once seated again, Liu Yuan briefly pondered, then softly asked, "Is Sister Rou Yi suggesting that Gui Zhen and Lady Mei Ru might be accomplices of Xuan Weizi and the others?"
"That possibility isnât ruled out."
Rou Yi replied, "But thereâs no need to worry too much, there is an Array here for protection. Worst case, we hide inside the Array. If we can delay for half a day, they will perish."
"Indeed, so even if they have accomplices, they wouldnât be foolish enough to expose themselves now."
Ji Yuan had considered this issue while in the underground Spirit Vein, which is why he had Rou Yi spread the word about "calling for help."
Leverage.
Leverage the influence of the Golden Core Zhenren.
Regardless of whether there are accomplices of Xuan Weizi within Liancheng Mountain, leveraging influence is a prudent approach.
Rou Yi had evidently thought of this as well, and couldnât help but glance approvingly at Ji Yuan.
In the following two days, the group from Water Dragon Sect stayed put within their residence, waiting for the Sect Leader of Golden Core Realm to arrive.
During this time, Gui Zhen even came by once, wanting to know what had happened beneath, but Rou Yi blocked him, merely stating that everything would be revealed once the Golden Core Zhenren arrives.
But even if Golden Core Zhenren arrives, itâs the Golden Core Zhenren of Water Dragon Sect who would come first!
This was notified a day in advance.
Next would be Joy Palace, which was relatively close, their sectâs Golden Core Zhenren should be the second to arrive; Medicine King Valley is the furthest away, naturally, they would be the last.
Which means, by the time their sectâs Golden Core Zhenren arrives, it would be too late.
No wonder Gui Zhen was anxious.
He even shouted at the entrance of Water Dragon Sectâs residence.
However, he was chased away by Rou Yi wielding her Great Sword.
He merely dared to speak out, but Rou Yi genuinely dared to act.
Ji Yuan naturally stayed in his own courtyard, munching on Spirit Eggs, in addition to absorbing Spirit Stones... specifically those just excavated from the Spirit Vein.
These things are like a windfall, one must use them rather than waste them.
Better to quickly absorb them, converting them into oneâs own power, eliminating any impact.
A day later.
While Ji Yuan was absorbing Spirit Stones in the courtyard, he suddenly noticed two streaks of light approaching rapidly in the sky, without a word, he put away the Spirit Stones in his hand, and as he stood up, those two water blue streaks of light had already reached above the Water Dragon Sectâs residence, descending straight into the residence hall.
Immediately, Ji Yuan and others received a transmission from Master Xuan Shui in their minds.
"Quickly gather in the hall."
Being close already, Ji Yuan executed the Escape Technique "As Shadows Follow," his form flickered several times within the residence, arriving before the hall.
"Junior Brother Ji!"
As soon as he arrived, he saw a figure dart out from inside, calling out to him joyfully.
"Brother Li."
Ji Yuan, seeing who it was, was quite surprised.
He didnât expect Li Changhe to show up as well.
After exchanging greetings, Ji Yuan entered the hall to greet Master Xuan Shui and Li Gang, the so-called Master Duocai.
Rou Yi had already briefed Master Xuan Shui on the situation, so he knew the basics.
"Nephew, thank goodness for you."
Master Xuan Shui said earnestly.
To the side, Master Duocai appeared to be still extremely angry, but did not forget to nod towards Ji Yuan, "We will discuss later."
