"I know."

Of course she knows.

"Since you knew this, you still dared to sign such a contract. You must be afraid of death and use public resources for personal gain! Use your privilege to plan for yourself."

Hearing the other party say this, Ji Zhaojun frowned slightly.

"Third uncle, I respect you as my elder, so I understand, but you can't speculate about me like this!"

"Hmph, I'm guessing you, ask me, am I the only one who thinks so?"

The man looked around, but saw that most people agreed with him, and seemed to disagree with Ji Zhaojun.

"Yes, Ji Huo is right. This matter is indeed your fault, niece."

A middle-aged man next to him, wearing wide-sleeved long clothes and with a serious face, said lightly.

"Market price? If we get the market price, what profit do we make? It also says that no matter how much the other party supplies, we must accept it and cannot refuse. What does this mean?"

"You know what will happen if the other party deliberately uses the contract to resell it?"

"Of course I have plans... and I trust her!"

"Besides, how can my Ji family be taken advantage of so easily?"

Even though there are constraints of the Heavenly Law Contract, there are sometimes loopholes that can be found.

Ji Zhaojun was very confident in her own judgment, and she also believed that the person her grandfather had pointed out to be her friend had great prospects, and she would not do such a despicable thing just for a few spirit stones.

"You don't understand, niece Zhaojun."

"Yeah, you think too simply, youngster. What Heavenly Dao Grandmaster? I'm afraid you've been deceived."

"Young man... From what I know, Keqing is indeed somewhat famous and is on the Tianjiao Ranking, but so what? Does being famous mean she can make pills? How is that possible?"

Everyone shook their heads.

I saw Ji Huo curling his lips

"I say, niece Zhaojun, if you can't do it, don't interfere in the affairs of the Ji family."

"Look, the elders are more experienced than you. If they were managing the Ji family, they wouldn't let you sign such a ridiculous contract."

"Yes, we have eaten more salt than you young people have eaten rice, young people are still not stable."

"Even if the ancestor values ​​you, you can't act so recklessly."

I've eaten more salt than rice. That's funny. Wouldn't you have choked to death long ago?

Chapter 274: Forced

Looking at the scene

Those who spoke were all elders of the Ji family, and they were all from the seventh and eighth elders. Ji Zhaojun knew that they did not initiate the meeting because of the contract, but wanted to take advantage of the issue to make a fuss.

The target is directly pointed at oneself.

After all, she had specially cleaned up the Ji family in order to eradicate the bad practices, and even killed a chicken to scare the monkeys.

And most of those people are from these families.

Thinking of this, she felt a burst of ridicule in her heart.

"How can I, Zhaojun, be such a short-sighted person? You keep calling me elder because I have more experience than you."

She glanced at him with disdain.

"Then why don't you have a higher level of cultivation than me? At your age, you are still only in the Nascent Soul stage? According to what you said, if you have lived longer and have more experience, you must have reached the Divine Transformation stage by now!"

"you!"

"Disrespect for elders!"

"Humph, I only respect the elders who are virtuous and respected, not the parasites who take advantage of their age and seniority!"

Ji Zhaojun said disdainfully.

As soon as my grandfather went into seclusion, this group of people started to make trouble.

"You said that I made such a contract because I was young and hot-tempered. Let me tell you what youthful hot-tempered means."

As he spoke, he took out an exquisite and gorgeous pill bottle and poured out a jade-like pill from it.

The pill is restrained and exquisite, with a faint halo lingering around it, especially the patterns on it are clearly visible, harmonious and natural, as if they were naturally imprinted on it.

"Heavenly Pill!"

"It's actually the Heavenly Dao Pill?"

The elders who were under pressure because of Ji Huo's instigation suddenly hesitated.

Could it be that Zhaojun’s niece really met the master of the Heavenly Dao?

If that's the case, then it's a great joy!

"It's the Heavenly Dao Pill, so what? The Heavenly Dao Pill can be obtained, but is it that easy for the Heavenly Dao Grandmaster to sign a contract?"

Ji Huo smiled faintly.

She had investigated and found out that Keqing was still in the early stage of Golden Core a few months ago.

Although he was promoted very quickly and no one knew what method he used to reach the peak of the Golden Core, there was no doubt that he was definitely not a master of the Heavenly Dao.

After all, which Tiandao master hasn't studied the Dao of Alchemy for hundreds of years? No matter how powerful a little girl who was in the early stage of Golden Elixir a few months ago is, how could she possibly make the Tiandao Pill?

As soon as the words came out, everyone nodded.

Yes, how is this possible.

"So, niece, you must have been deceived."

Hearing Ji Huo say this, Ji Zhaojun wanted to say that she had seen it with her own eyes, but it seemed a bit boring.

Even if I say so, the other party won't believe it. After all, even if he didn't see it with his blue eyes, he wouldn't believe it.

Thinking of this, she felt a little bored and was too lazy to argue with this group of people.

"Anyway, I have my own ideas. If Third Uncle is free, he might as well take good care of my cousin! So that he won't go out and have affairs with other girls."

"My grandfather asked me to take charge of family affairs, so naturally I am the boss. Did Third Uncle forget?"

"Humph, so what? Have you forgotten that if the sovereign makes a wrong decision, the Ji family can remove him through collective discussion."

He clapped his hands as he spoke.

Soon a man came out, and Ji Zhaojun recognized at a glance that he was the alchemist of the alchemy workshop.

The so-called Alchemy Workshop was established by the Ji family by winning over other famous honorary alchemists as well as the alchemists they trained themselves. It was also because of this that the Ji family had enough channels for elixirs to bribe them.

"Master Wang Dan, why are you here?"

Ji Zhaojun's heart sank. It seemed that Ji Huo came prepared.

"I just wanted to see what the so-called Heavenly Dao Alchemist is like. He is actually willing to let the head of the Ji family buy pills at the market price, and there is no limit on the quantity."

"This breaks the heart of our honorary alchemist! Such discrimination is not what a family leader should do."

"We honorary alchemists came to the Ji family because we valued the fairness and justice of the Ji family. However, the Ji family treated us differently. We found out that the so-called Heavenly Dao Alchemist was just a kid who hadn't even grown all his hair yet."

When Master Wang Dan said this, he glared.

"However, who can believe that a kid in his teens or twenties can make a Heavenly Dao Pill? If it weren't for Daoist Fellow Ji Huo telling me, I wouldn't have known that the Ji family was like this."

Ji Zhaojun was speechless. What could she say? Could she say that Fellow Daoist Keqing was the Grandmaster of Heavenly Dao and that she had seen it with her own eyes?

Will they believe it?

will not.

They will only think that you are unrepentant and talking nonsense, and it will also damage your reputation.

Ji Zhaojun knew that even if Fellow Daoist Keqing could refine the Tiandao Pill, it did not mean that she would be able to do it next time.

Everyone knows that only when one reaches the pinnacle of alchemy and has the right time and place can one refine a Heavenly Dao Pill, and all alchemists aim to do this.

And it would be a joke to tell others that a girl in the Jindan stage with a bone age of 20 could refine the Tiandao Pill. Who would believe it? She would not believe it if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes.

This is an open conspiracy. Regardless of whether he can really make the Tiandao Pill or not, his prestige will be greatly reduced.

Even Ji Zhaojun thought that getting the elixir before had some element of luck.

Taking a step back, even if he lowered his status and face and bothered Fellow Daoist Keqing to prove that he had good alchemy skills, what would that matter?

Mid-grade and high-grade pills, does the Ji family need any? Of course they do!

Even if it is a top-grade elixir, the Ji family can occasionally make it, just like Master Wang, who was lucky enough to refine several top-grade pills a few days ago.

Therefore, as long as they did not see it with their own eyes, and as long as the pill they refined was not the Tiandao Pill, the result would not change.

Only to be said,

Fairy Qing is just talented, but she uses public resources for personal gain.

But his reputation was still damaged, which made people feel proud.

Thinking of this, Ji Zhaojun's face darkened. If it weren't for her grandfather's retreat...

No, even if my grandfather doesn’t go into seclusion, what does it matter? Can I still rely on him all the time?

"I told you, niece Zhaojun, you are going too far. How could you sign such an unfair contract without discussing it?"

"You clearly said that strength should be respected, but also reasonable distribution. The family should be fair and just. The same is true for what we did before."

Ji Huo raised an eyebrow.

"Why, it has changed its taste when it comes to me..."

What Ji Huo said was meaningful.

"If that's the case, then what my niece did before was just to save face... but in reality, to eliminate dissidents?"

"Jiho!"

"What? You don't even address your elders as such? Is this your family education?"

Ji Zhaojun frowned, and others were adding fuel to the fire.

Master Wang Dan further stated.

If Ji Zhaojun insisted on doing so, he might have to take everyone away from the Ji family.

This made Ji Zhaojun even more troubled. Everyone knew that the alchemy workshop had been performing so well recently because her previous style had attracted alchemists like Master Wang who had good alchemy skills but were not very practical.

If the other party leaves...

It was a heavy blow to me.

Thinking of this, Ji Zhaojun was worried. There were only two options at the moment.

One is to call grandfather. With grandfather's favoritism towards me and the other party's previous reminders, he must know the multiple purposes of this contract, and everything can be solved easily.

The second method is to throw it away, but in this way you will suffer the consequences. Although you can kill the enemy with one blow, your reputation will be ruined.

Either way it's not that good.

Chapter 275 How is it possible! (th update)

"Why don't you give up your power, niece Zhaojun, so that you don't get confused and make such impulsive decisions in the future."

Ji Huo raised his eyebrows proudly.

Seeing him like this, Ji Zhaojun was certain in her heart and was about to speak.

But at this moment, a report was heard.

"Miss Zhaojun, someone is visiting outside and claims to have something important to tell you."

Ji Huo frowned slightly.

"Don't you know the meeting is going on now? What important matter could disturb the meeting?"

"But... that person is holding Miss Zhaojun's jade pendant. He is a guest of the highest status. I dare not delay him..."

"Hmm? Who is it?"

Ji Zhaojun couldn't help but ask, but she had some guesses in her mind.

"She said her name was Tan Wei."
