Chapter 278: The maid is like smoke (two in one chapter)
"Senior Hong, we've already packed it up."
Ji Ruyan did not explain anything to Ji Rukun. After packing up the evil cultivator's belongings, he reported it to Liu Yu.
Since Senior Hong has promised to provide resources for cultivation to the foundation-building stage, there is no harm in giving these properties to his clan brothers, as a way of repaying the family for their kindness in cultivating them over the years.
Her biological parents are just ordinary mortals, possessing the body of jade and phoenix marrow. This secret is only known to herself and she has not told anyone in the family.
After learning about her own constitution and its effect on male cultivators through some classics, Ji Ruyan was afraid of becoming a tool for exchanging family interests and did not dare to reveal anything to others.
I don’t want to be under the threat of life and death today. In order to survive, I still...
For a moment, Ji Ruyan's heart was complicated and even a little contradictory.
However, what can be done after she has been implanted with a spiritual restriction? We can only hope that "Senior Hong" can keep his word and set her free after receiving the psychic energy.
"In that case, let's go and follow me back to Jinxingfang City."
Liu Yu nodded lightly and said calmly.
He quite agrees with this woman's behavior of giving all the resources she received from evil cultivators to her companions, which shows that this woman is a person who misses old relationships.
Although he is indifferent and selfish, he does not like to associate with monks who have the same characteristics. He is still happy to deal with monks who are "affectionate and righteous", which is much simpler.
It is a good thing to value family ties, and I can just start from this point to achieve the purpose of getting close to and controlling this woman.
Thinking of this, Liu Yu smiled slightly and led the two Ji family members towards the exit of the Venus branch.
This place is only about thirty miles away from the entrance. The active monsters and monks are all in the Qi refining stage and pose no threat to Liu Yu.
Therefore, the speed of the three people increased a lot, and they arrived at the entrance in less than half an hour and exited the branch of Venus. No accidents occurred during the process.
After leaving the mountain range, Liu Yu directly used the Son-Mother Soul-Chasing Blade, which changed to the limit of three feet in size, and flew the two of them towards the branch of Venus.
A little more than a quarter of an hour later, we returned to Jinxingfang City, and the escape light fell not far from the east gate.
"Does your family have any property or contact point in Jinxingfang City?"
"It shouldn't be a problem to put him here and return him to the family, right?"
After waving his hand to put away the Soul-Chasing Blade, Liu Yu glanced at Ji Rukun and said to Ji Ruyan.
He just fell in love with the psychic energy in Ji Ruyan's body and had no interest in getting involved with the Ji family. Naturally, he would not bring this scumbag with him.
"Senior Hui Hong, our family has no property or contact point in Jinxingfang City."
"But if there is a clan member who is looking for a living in Fang City, you can ask Rukun to find him."
Ji Ruyan did not dare to play tricks at this time and answered truthfully.
"Well, in that case, let's arrange it this way."
"You two should separate here. If there is anything else you want to say to him, please do it now while you can."
"After today, I will no longer be able to contact your family."
"Attention, there are some things that can be said and some things that cannot be said. The less your family knows about your affairs, the better."
Liu Yu pondered slightly and then said, generously giving this woman time to say goodbye.
The psychic energy requires the female cultivator to voluntarily obtain it. If it is not necessary, he does not want to make the relationship with this girl too tense.
Ji Ruyan nodded lightly, then took Ji Rukun aside and whispered something as if he was explaining something.
Liu Yu crossed her arms and quietly watched the people coming and going at the east gate of Fangshi. However, the words of the two Ji family members were heard word by word. Seeing that Ji Ruyan did not act smart, she nodded slightly.
.
"Senior Hong, I have already told you everything I need to explain to you."
Maybe he didn't dare to let Liu Yu wait. After a while, Ji Ruyan came over and whispered.
"You can take this "Yin Lei Zi" and give it to him, so that you can put your past things to rest."
"Coupled with the resources that the evil cultivator has, in this way, you and the Ji family can be considered to have settled their grudges, and you will not owe anything from now on."
With that said, Liu Yu touched the palm of her storage bag, took out a marble-sized, dark ball, and handed it to Ji Ruyan.
As a member of the family who was trained by his family and had no shortage of basic knowledge in cultivating immortals, Ji Ruyan was naturally aware of the prestigious disposable weapon Yin Leizi, and he also knew how precious it was.
"This...senior."
Ji Ruyan opened her mouth and hesitated.
It wasn't until Liu Yu said it again that she took the Yin Leizi and handed it to Ji Rukun.
"Okay, now that the past is over, just follow me."
Liu Yu's tone was rare and gentle, and as she said that, she walked towards the entrance of Fangshi first.
Ji Ruyan was stunned for a while, then hurriedly followed, consciously falling two steps behind and following Liu Yu.
"It seems that Senior Hong is not so ruthless? After transferring the psychic energy to him, can he really be free?"
"Perhaps, practicing with Senior Hong is not a bad thing. At least you will get more training resources than from your family, and your chances of building a foundation will be much greater."
As Ji Ruyan followed Liu Yu step by step, he began to have random thoughts in his mind.
After the Yin Leizi incident, her impression of Liu Yu changed, and she seemed to no longer have such a strong resistance.
It's just that in terms of appearance, it's still a bit difficult to accept, and judging from his age, he is probably over a hundred years old, and he is too different from her. These two points still make her feel uncomfortable, and there is always a gap.
Putting Yin Leizi into his storage bag, Ji Rukun stood there, staring blankly at the backs of the two people as they left.
That amiable clan sister is just gone? Will she never return to the clan?
At this moment, he realized that in order to save the lives of the two of them, the clan sister must have paid something very precious.
"Sister Ruyan, don't worry, I will definitely work hard to practice, and one day I will find you and welcome you back to the family!"
Fighting spirit ignited in the young man's eyes, and he secretly vowed to move towards this goal.
…
Liu Yu took Ji Ruyan into Fangshi and did not return directly to the Jade Pill Hall. Instead, he walked to a remote place.
"Where are we going? Why are we getting more and more remote? With Senior Hong's strength, he can't even afford to stay in an inn, right?"
Ji Ruyan kept following behind. Seeing the increasingly remote scene, she felt a little uneasy and couldn't help but start thinking wildly again.
Just as she was thinking about it, Liu Yu turned into a remote alley, and she quickly followed in.
But this turned out to be a dead end!
Ji Ruyan opened her eyes wide, with a look of disbelief in her eyes. She saw "Senior Hong"'s appearance change, and he slowly turned into another person.
From a middle-aged Taoist with disheveled hair, he gradually turned into a young monk. Although his face was still ordinary, he looked more than dozens of years younger.
He was wearing a black robe and had an ordinary appearance, with a calm and indifferent look on his face, which was very different from the cruel and ruthless look he had before.
"What, you're surprised?"
Liu Yu seemed to be able to read minds, and smiled slightly to express the surprise in the woman's heart.
Only when the jade and phoenix marrow body reaches the foundation building stage, will the essence of psychic energy be produced in the body. In order to maximize this woman's promotion to the foundation building stage, he naturally has to take this girl with him for guidance.
In this way, it is impossible to conceal the true identity.
The ability to improve psychic energy is very effective in practicing before the Nascent Soul stage. In order to obtain the power of psychic energy, Liu Yu is willing to invest some of his energy and resources in this.
"Ah, I'm sorry, Senior Hong."
"Is this the true face of senior?"
Ji Ruyan came back to her senses and realized that her behavior just now was a bit rude, she lowered her head and asked in a low voice.
"That's right."
"And my real name is Liu Yu, a monk from the Yuanyang Sect. You have to remember it."
Liu Yu replied, then walked out with his hands behind his back.
"Yes! Hong...Senior Liu."
Ji Ruyan followed, but was extremely shocked.
For many families in Qingzhou, Yuanyang Sect is undoubtedly an unattainable mountain, a mountain that weighs on the heads of all families and forces.
Most of the resources for cultivating immortals in Qingzhou are controlled by Yuanyang Sect. Only those who leaked out from the fingers of Yuanyang Sect and looked down upon will get the rest of the forces.
Liu Yu didn't care what the girl was thinking. After returning to her original appearance, she took her towards the Jade Pill Hall.
"Don't mention your physique to others in the future."
"Also, please don't call me "senior" from now on, it seems too harsh."
"Just call me Young Master."
After walking some distance, Liu Yu paused and thought of this problem, so he gave the order.
"Okay, sir."
Ji Ruyan responded, the roots of his ears turning a little red.
Seeing this, Liu Yu nodded slightly, and then led the girl back to the Jade Pill Hall without stopping.
"Dongjia, Dongjia."
Entering Jade Pill Hall, several store clerks greeted me flatteringly.
Liu Yu just nodded imperceptibly, and walked straight up to the third floor without stopping at all.
Pushing open the door of the small room, Jiang Qiushui happened to be inside. He raised his head when he heard the movement, and saw a hint of joy flashing in Liu Yu's eyes.
But then she saw Ji Ruyan following Liu Yu, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she intuitively felt that the relationship between this female cultivator and her senior brother was not simple.
Because in her impression, Liu Yu rarely had contact with female cultivators, let alone brought them to the Jade Alchemy Hall.
"Senior brother, do you have anything to explain?"
"she is?"
Many speculations flashed through his mind. Although Jiang Qiushui had no good impression of this female cultivator, he still asked with a normal expression.
"She is my new maid."
"I will stay here with me for a while. Please ask Junior Sister to make a room for her on the second floor."
Liu Yu said calmly.
The formula of Canglang Spiritual Water has been obtained. Because Jiang Qiushui may have to collect the spiritual herbs, and some of Qingsong Lao Dao's net worth needs to be liquidated, he did not return to the sect directly.
If it weren't for this reason, he wouldn't want the two girls to meet so early.
Female cultivators are more likely to be emotional and do some irrational things. If this affects the Jade Alchemy Hall and the income from spiritual stones, that would be bad.
maid?
Sure enough, new people are better than old people. New clothes are better to wear than old clothes, right?
Hearing this, Jiang Qiushui's face instantly became a little ugly, but he managed to recover and maintained a normal expression:
"No problem. Junior sister will definitely go and do it right away according to the senior brother's order."
"Give this girl a large and comfortable room."
After speaking, Jiang Qiushui's eyes looked extremely calm.
But beneath the calm surface, there are undercurrents surging, various vicious thoughts arising, and even murderous intentions.
She couldn't bear that her favor would be shared by other female nuns!
"Junior sister, Ruyan is of great use to me. I don't want anything to happen to Ruyan."
"Do you get me?"
Liu Yu stared into her eyes and said without any doubt.
Jiang Qiushui was already at the foundation-building stage, while Ji Ruyan was only at the eighth level of the Qi-refining stage. There was a big difference between the two.
If the former wanted to harm the latter, or even take her life, there were so many ways that Liu Yu had to give a serious warning.
Jiang Qiushui's eyes were complicated after hearing this. First he felt disbelief, then anger, and finally turned into sadness.
She didn't expect that her senior brother would warn her about a newly hired maid.
"Yes, Qiu Shui understands."
Jiang Qiushui whispered.
The habits she had developed over the years, coupled with the restraint of her soul, prevented her from going against Liu Yu's will.
At the same time, from Liu Yu's attitude, she realized that it might not be about that aspect, but maybe it was really because this female cultivator was of "great use".
Thinking about it this way, she felt much more comfortable.
"Well, then I'll leave her to my junior sister."
"By the way, get her three bottles of Bi Ling Dan to use in her practice first."
"Ruyan, you stay in the Jade Pill Hall for a few days first. Qiu Shui will arrange a room for you. After a few days, you can follow me back to the sect."
Liu Yu first ordered Jiang Qiushui, and then said to Ji Ruyan.
Seeing that both women had no objections, they gave some instructions and then turned around and left, returning to their big room.
After he left, the atmosphere in the room became a little strange.
"Senior Jiang~"
Ji Ruyan said respectfully and wanted to salute after speaking.
"Sister, you don't have to be like this!"
"You are senior brother's maid, I am senior brother's junior sister, you and I are both senior brother's..."
"You and I should get closer to each other more,"
Jiang Qiushui is good at dancing and has rich experience in life. At this time, his smile has returned.
She smiled like a flower, holding hands and chatting cordially with Ji Ruyan, trying to get some information by making insinuations.
This flattered the former, but Liu Yu always kept his instructions in mind and did not dare to reveal anything about his physique and origins.
Liu Yu could guess most of the junior sister's thoughts and feelings, but this could not shake his will at all.
Be it Jiang Qiushui or Ji Ruyan.
They all have different uses for themselves, and it is impossible to give up the feelings of one party for the other.
Looking at his heart, he is indifferent, ruthless and selfish. He only has himself, the Immortal Mansion, and his own interests in his heart.
Beyond that, everything can be given up.
Sitting on the wooden table, Liu Yu pondered for a while, recalling the omissions and shortcomings of his trip, and then took off Qingsong Laodao's storage bag from his waist.
With some expectation, he opened the mouth of the bag, input a bit of mana, and poured it down. Suddenly, a lot of items appeared on the table.
First, there are dozens of jade boxes, all of which seem to contain spiritual herbs and elixirs. One of the jade boxes is extremely exquisite and has a middle-grade spiritual sealing talisman solemnly affixed to it.
This is clearly a jade box containing Xuanyuan Ice Crystal!
