The Ji Family's Pride

Chapter 140 Banquet
"Looking up, I wonder if any major forces have come to visit me during the more than one year of my seclusion?" Ji Xiaoshan was in the courtyard, holding a pot of wine and drinking leisurely. Across from him was squatting an extremely majestic beast.

"Hmm. If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten it." The Sky-Watching Godly Hound paused while eating meat. "Ever since the story of Big Brother and Ji Ning beheading Shao Yannong and his servant in Wujiang Immortal Mansion spread, and countless immortal cultivators knew your name at the treasure competition, many of them came to visit us, but after knowing that Big Brother was in seclusion, they all said they would visit us another day."

Ji Xiaoshan nodded gently, "It just so happens that Ji Ning is coming soon, so we can go with him. Although I can't seek shelter from these big tribes, it won't be wrong to get to know them. After all, if the Ji family develops in the future, it will inevitably have to deal with these big tribes and big forces."

at this time.

"Junior Brother Qingping!"

A female voice came from a very far distance, and then the figure came very close in an instant and arrived in front of the gate of the courtyard.

"Hmm? Is it Senior Sister Yun Jin?" Ji Xiaoshan and Wangtian Shenhu stopped what they were doing. "Senior Sister actually came to the capital of Daxia?"

He raised his head and looked outside, only to see two causal lines, one thick and one thin, extending directly outwards.

Ji Xiaoshan's mind immediately moved, and his powerful consciousness immediately spread out, "Is it Senior Sister Yun Jin and Ji Ning who came together?"

Wow!
The gate of the courtyard was opened in an instant, and a beautiful woman in a snow-white Taoist robe and a young man covered in animal skins walked straight in.

"Senior Sister! Ji Ning!" Ji Xiaoshan said with a smile.

“Fairy Yun Jin!” Wang Tian Shen Huo also spoke. He turned his head to look at Ji Ning behind Fairy Yun Jin, “Ji Ning! Where is Qing Qing, the bad snake?”

hiss!
The Sky Green Snake wrapped around Ji Ning's arm flickered its tongue and immediately slipped into Ji Ning's sleeve. After not seeing it for more than a year, it could sense that the Sky-Watching God had become more powerful, so it hid itself because it could not afford to offend him.

Ji Xiaoshan also looked at Ji Ning, "Ji Ning, you actually came to my place with my senior sister."

"A bit unexpected?" Fairy Yun Jin raised her eyebrows and smiled, "I calculated the time and thought it would be too troublesome to bring the disciples of the academy to the capital of Daxia, so I came here early. I happened to meet Ji Ning at Yinglong Mountain, and we found this place together."

Ji Ning also smiled.

"Junior Brother Qingping, I have come all the way from Anchan County to find you, and you are just standing here like this?"

"Senior sister, please sit down!" Ji Xiaoshan smiled and welcomed the two of them closer.

With a wave of his hand, several tables fell directly into the yard. With another wave of his hand, all kinds of wine, drinks and spiritual fruits were available.

"It just so happens that I bought a lot of fine wine and spiritual fruits at the Tianbao Mountain headquarters, but it cost me a lot of essence, and I haven't used them to entertain others yet. Senior sister, you and Ji Ning are in for a treat."

Ji Ning and Fairy Yun Jin smiled at each other.

……

Shuiyun Tower.

"Sir, the Immortal Qingping, who you asked me to pay attention to, has come out of retreat today. Even the Immortal Beiming, who is also wanted by the Shaoyan clan, has arrived at the capital of Daxia today." A young man in a white robe pushed open the door of a room and saw a young man sitting casually at the top, and said respectfully.

"Oh! Master Qingping has come out of retreat? And Master Beiming, who is also wanted by Shaoyan clan, has also come to the capital of Daxia?" The young man in a loose white robe looked lazy and suddenly sat up.

"Xiaolou. Are you talking about the Taoist Qingping and Taoist Beiming who killed Shao Yannong and his servant? Is that Taoist Qingping the one who spent a fortune at the Tianbao Mountain headquarters a year ago?" A tall young man in black sitting next to him also had his eyes lit up when he heard this.

It is extremely rare for Master Wanxiang to take out two immortal-grade magic weapons, not to mention that they are not ordinary immortal-grade magic weapons, not to mention that he killed Shao Yannong and his servant, the demon god Liu Fang.

"That's right. There are not many real people who can take out immortal-level magic weapons. Even I can't take out these now. Let alone kill Shao Yannong and his servant."

"Shao Yannong is favored by the immortals, and the treasures he has are not much inferior to mine, and he has a god and demon protecting him. The members of the Xiangliu clan are very difficult to deal with. No matter what means Master Qingping and Master Beiming used to kill him, he is not an ordinary cultivator." Zhuanshui Xiaolou said with a smile.

"I invited this Qing Ping Zhenren last time, but it was a pity that it was not the right time. After attending the treasure competition, the Qing Ping Zhenren immediately went into seclusion. Qu Ge, are you willing to meet these two Zhenren with me?"

"Well, meet you! The fact that they don't take Shao Yan clan seriously and come to the capital of Da Xia openly shows that their strength is at least good. It is worth making friends with them." The tall young man in black, Tiannong Quge, also smiled.

"Strength?" Zhuanshui Xiaolou looked at Tiannong Quge, "You also know that although Shao Yannong and I are both one of the four princes of the Great Xia capital, my Zhuanshui clan and Shao Yan clan are sworn enemies, and Shao Yannong and I don't get along even better. After Shao Yannong died, I asked someone to find out all the information about Qingping Zhenren and Beiming Zhenren."

"In that case, these two are also extremely powerful?" Tiannong Quge's eyes were bright. He devoted himself to cultivation and often went out to hone his skills. Naturally, he was more interested in the powerful people in the same realm.

"This Immortal Qingping has been practicing for less than 50 years. But just ten years ago, he was able to kill a cultivator who had reached the perfection of the first spirit in a moment. Although the cultivator was from a small sect, it is also very telling. Not to mention Immortal Qingping ten years later, and Immortal Beiming is not bad either..." Zhuanshui Xiaolou had a smile on his face. "How could he be so evil?" Tiannong Quge became more interested after hearing this, "Then I must meet these two Immortals."

"Since Qu Ge, you also want to meet these two immortals." Zhuanshui Xiaolou turned his head and looked at the young man in white robes below, "You should send a copy of my invitation to Immortal Qingping and Immortal Beiming respectively. Invite the two immortals to come to my Shuiyun Tower for a banquet tomorrow night. Remember, be respectful and polite."

"Yes, sir." The young man in white robe nodded respectfully.

……

"So, the Shao Yan clan has put Junior Brother Bei Ming and you on the wanted list, but haven't taken any action against you?" Fairy Yun Jin asked curiously.

"Not yet. It feels like a lot of noise but little rain, a tiger with a head but a snake with a tail. But a large tribe like the Shaoyan clan is not easy to deal with. They have been multiplying for hundreds of millions of years, and maybe they are waiting for me with a vicious heart." Ji Xiaoshan shook his head, "But the Great Xia King City strictly prohibits cultivators from fighting. With my strength, I only need to stay in the Great Xia King City and not go out. Even if a day immortal comes, I will not be afraid at all."

“Junior brother, I know your strength. My master and I have never been worried about you. Besides, you have a second soul. I heard that you spent a lot of money at the treasure hunt. You should have broken through to the level of Return to the Void Earth Immortal.” Fairy Yun Jin smiled.

"I can't hide it from senior sister." Ji Xiaoshan said with a smile.

“What? Brother, your second soul is already a terrestrial immortal?” Ji Ning was stunned. “Then my Ji clan can be considered a clan with a terrestrial immortal.”

Although Ji Ning had the help of Ji Xiaoshan, he got a Qi Yuanshui bead and cultivated a second soul, which successfully cultivated to the level of Taoist Yuanshen. But the earthly immortals were not ordinary, and they were at the same level as the immortals in his master's palace in the Black and White Academy.

"That's nothing." Ji Xiaoshan waved his hand. "My enlightenment level has long been able to break through to the Earthly Immortal level. This breakthrough can be considered a natural result."

Ji Xiaoshan then looked at Ji Ning, "Ji Ning, you came from Anchan County, I wonder how the tribe is doing? And the Shao Yan clan, I'm sure your trip must have caused some trouble!"

"Yes. Although Shao Yan clan is watching outside the tribe, the tribe is well organized. I have also placed those puppets in the Taoist Temple of my Ji clan. Immortal Duohe and Immortal Wu Sui also protect the Ji clan very well." Ji Ning smiled when he mentioned this.

"Well. When you asked me for these puppets, you said that there would be a chance to improve them. Now it seems that it should be very effective. Even if we are not in the clan, the safety of the Daozang Hall can be guaranteed." Ji Xiaoshan nodded. He knew some of Ji Ning's secrets, so naturally he would not ask too much.

"Those puppets have been improved now. Although there are only nine left, each of them is extraordinary and can rival Yuanshen Taoist." Ji Ning nodded. He was not able to do this. It all depended on the spirit of the Water Palace. He continued.

"Shao Yan's clan has been arranging Taoist soldiers to patrol near Yanshan Mountain. Fortunately, I have realized a complete Tao that can travel through the void. The Taoist soldiers of Shao Yan's clan passed me by and chased me all the way to the Red Dragon Mountains. They were unable to take action and had to give up."

"Well. As long as you are safe and sound." Ji Xiaoshan nodded. "When you came to the capital of Daxia, I was most worried about you. Although you also have a second soul, there is no guarantee that Shao Yan clan will not take risks and send a top immortal to assassinate us."

"Brother, don't worry. My second soul is now also a Taoist soul, and I have the magic weapons you gave me before..."

"Okay, you two brothers can't stop talking about this." Fairy Yun Jin listened quietly at the side, and suddenly said, "This Fairy Fate Conference is different from the usual ones. I heard about it along the way. The Emperor of Daxia has announced that all tribes and sects must send the most evil Wanxiang Zhenren to participate in this Fairy Fate Conference."

"I've heard of them, I haven't heard of them, there are many evil geniuses."

"Hmm. I heard about that, too." Ji Ning nodded. "Although this Immortal Fate Conference is more difficult than previous ones, it is a great fortune to be able to compete with countless geniuses of the same level. Moreover, the Emperor of Daxia has announced that the opportunities for the immortal cultivators who are ranked at the top will be great. The treasures and opportunities bestowed by them have made countless earth immortals and scattered immortals extremely envious."

"These are nothing. The greater opportunity is the chance to be accepted as a disciple by the Taoist Master!" Ji Xiaoshan said softly.

"Well. Brother, we must seize this hard-earned opportunity." Ji Ning also smiled, and it was obvious that he also knew the news.

at this time.

"Master Qingping. I am from Zhuanshui Clan's Zhuanshui Xiaolou and I am sending you an invitation on behalf of you, young master!" the young man in white robe said respectfully outside the gate of the courtyard.

"Zhuanshui Clan's Zhuanshui Tower?" Ji Xiaoshan smiled. "It's just a coincidence today that we are all crowded together."

"Zhuanshui Xiaolou? The young master Zhuanshui who is at odds with Shao Yannong?" Ji Ning's eyes lit up. He and Ji Xiaoshan were alone and weak against a large tribe like the Shao Yan clan. If there was a large tribe hostile to the Shao Yan clan to help them, the pressure would be greatly reduced.

Ji Xiaoshan said with a smile, "Daoyou, please come in!"

"Master Qingping!" Although the young man in white robe was a Taoist priest, he was still very respectful. On the one hand, he had Zhuanshui Xiaolou's instructions, and on the other hand, it was also a respect for the strong. The information Zhuanshui Xiaolou knew was collected by him in detail, and then there were those that Zhuanshui Xiaolou saw. He naturally knew the strength of the young man in green robe in front of him.

"Master Qingping, Master Beiming is here too. My master Zhuanshui Xiaolou heard that you are coming out of retreat today, and sincerely invites you two to a banquet. Please come to Shuiyun Tower of my Zhuanshui clan tomorrow evening." The young man in white robe said as he took out two invitations and respectfully handed them to Ji Xiaoshan and Ji Ning respectively.
