Chapter 345: Ji family's past

Translator: 549690339

The guards of the Ji family noticed this and turned around, their eyes alert.

You, this little lady, are quite outstanding. The three itinerant cultivators didn't even look at the guards. They smiled at Ji Shuang 'er and said, it's a pity that young women age easily. No matter how beautiful she is, she'll be an old woman in two years. Isn't that a pity?

It's fate that we met today.

Why don't you follow me into the Dao and become a female disciple? in the future, you'll be immortal and free. Wouldn't that be great?

The Ji family was shocked. You Zhongzheng was about to speak on behalf of Ji Shuang 'er, but he felt a sticky tongue and couldn't make a sound!

He was overwhelmed with shock, but he could not express it.

With no one to speak up for her, Ji Shuang 'er had to come out and say,I, I was only engaged a year ago, and I still Still have to take care of my parents, and I don't want to enter the Dao.

You don't want to? The young cultivator among the three individual cultivators smiled and said, it seems that although the girl is pure-hearted and has potential, she is too attached to the world of mortals. Since you're a future female disciple, then you're not an outsider. Master will do this for you!

Then, he raised his hand and a wind blade appeared out of thin air, directly cutting the remaining people of the Ji family!

PEI Ling slightly frowned and was about to make a move, but Ji Wu stood up first and waved his blade without saying a word!

Shua!

In the eyes of mortals, the Well-Tempered blade was instantly shattered. At the same time, a blood-red blade Qi left the blade and formed a long red blade, which flew out with a whistling sound!

In front of this saber Qi, the wind blade was unable to fight back and almost collapsed at the touch. It was destroyed without even a trace of Qi strength.

The saber Qi's momentum was not affected at all as it continued to slash toward the three itinerant cultivators!

The three rogue cultivators were horrified. They didn't even have time to react before they were swallowed by the saber Qi!

Plop, plop

With several muffled sounds, the three itinerant cultivators were cut in half by the saber Qi. Six pieces of corpses gradually fell to the ground, and fresh blood suddenly bloomed, spraying all over the hall!

Ah, Yingluo.

The screams of the women quickly died down. After making this move, Ji Wu's expression froze, as if he had suddenly remembered something.

He turned his head and looked at PEI Ling, but his body began to shatter.

Just as PEI Ling met his gaze, the scenery in front of him suddenly changed and he saw a scene:

On a rainy day, with thunder and lightning, the Ji family carefully entered the Pengxi temple and temporarily settled down.

The hall, which was as spacious as it was now, was not as clean as it was now. Instead, it was covered with dust and cobwebs, and one could tell that it had been abandoned for a long time.

After they confirmed that there was no owner here, they gently pushed open the door of the hall and saw three skeletons lying on the futon under the long table.

A gust of wind blew in from the palace door that they had opened. A part of the skeleton was instantly turned into dust.

In the center of the hall, two skeletons in gorgeous clothes were sitting back to back. It was obvious that they had been dead for a long time.

It was fine for the others, but the two women were very scared when they saw this.

However, the rain was pouring heavily, and there was no other place to take shelter from the rain. Therefore, after Ji youzhong comforted Ji Shuang 'er, he ordered Ji Wu to clean up the five skeletons. Then, he started a fire in the hall to cook.

Everything was normal during the day.

The change started in the middle of the night. First, the guards disappeared one by one in front of the public.

Due to the limited light from the bonfire and the fear caused by the disappearance of the guards, they did not realize in time that the space in the hall had shrunk silently Until the entire Hall was so small that it almost surrounded them. The remaining people then seemed to have woken up from a dream and quickly ran out!

During this process, the last guard was slightly slower and was swallowed by the hall right in front of them!

Ji Wu, you tizhong, Ji Shuang 'er, and the servant girl Xiao Xia escaped from the temple by luck. But when they walked out of the temple in a panic, they found that they had returned to the temple!

The four of them were terrified and tried their best to escape.

However, the entire Taoist temple seemed to have realized that it had been exposed. It no longer concealed itself and began to devour living beings openly.

Soon, the maidservant Xiao Xia and the manager Ji youzhong disappeared

Ji Shuang 'er's strength was exhausted, and she was so frightened that she almost collapsed on the spot.

Ji Wu had to run with her.

However, not long after, the young lady tripped over a stone. Ji Wu turned around and tried to help her up, but his body was swallowed by the ground

In the end, Ji Shuang 'er couldn't bear the fear anymore. Before the Taoist temple could do anything, she found a tree nearby and hung herself. Her dress was dyed red, and it looked like she was wearing a red robe.

Ji Wu! Ji Wu?

Ji youzhong's voice rang in PEI Ling's ears. When he came back to his senses, he saw Ji youzhong and the rest of the Ji family looking at him with concern.

He was about to say something when his expression suddenly changed!

His entire cultivation base had disappeared!

He lowered his head and saw that he was wearing the same clothes as Ji Wu He had turned into Ji Wu?

Then, all the memories of the past few days gushed into his mind like a tide.

In that instant, PEI Ling recalled everything that had happened in the past few days!

Instantly, his forehead was covered in cold sweat.

Master, how did you lose your cultivation? The nine souls saber's voice rang in PEI Ling's ears.

In the end, it was his Life Saber. At the critical moment, it floated behind him.

Otherwise, with PEI Ling having lost all his cultivation, the weight of the nine souls saber would have definitely pressed him down to the ground!

At the thought of this, PEI Ling did not have the time to explain to the nine soul saber. He quickly said to Ji youzhong,I'm fine

As he spoke, PEI Ling looked at the three Qi refining stage rogue cultivators, only to see that the original flesh and blood had disappeared. There were only three skeletons on the ground, and a part of them had already weathered away.

It was exactly the same as what he had seen in the illusion.

Hearing this, Ji youzhong and the others heaved a sigh of relief.

You youzhong slightly nodded and said in a deep voice, It's good that you are fine! Among us, your martial arts are the best. Now that we're in the wilderness, you can't relax. Remember, we must send the young miss back safely, so as to not let down the kindness the Ji family has shown us!

PEI Ling nodded his head calmly. He saw that the Ji family did not mention the matter of the three Qi cultivating cultivators at all. They even turned a blind eye to the skeleton that was close at hand.

He gradually came to a realization. Although his [ spirit eye ] couldn't see any problems, he was sure that the people he saw were not real living people!

Immediately after, PEI Ling used Ji Wu's identity to chat with the Ji family for a while. Then, using the excuse that he needed to investigate the main hall, he stood up and walked to a corner alone.

Lend me some essence. PEI Ling said quietly.
