In the next second, he sent a force towards Qing Huo, who was closest to him…
Qing Huo was caught off guard and barely managed to take the attack. He spat out another mouthful of blood.
Without waiting for him to recover, the other party's second palm landed...
If this palm landed, there would be one more dead person in this room.
However, at the critical moment, a slender wrist suddenly pierced through and took the palm strike…
"Young Master!" Qian Yan cried out anxiously.
The entire room was suddenly filled with a strange air current. Ji Zi gritted his teeth and resisted the other party's internal energy. He secretly hated himself for not being able to hold his breath. However, what could he do? This hot potato had already been taken. If he let go now, it would only cause both sides to suffer.
She frowned and threw caution to the wind. She turned to Qing Huo and shouted," One hundred thousand taels of silver, not a single cent less!”With that, she gathered her internal energy and resisted with all her might after getting Qing Huo's nod.
Qing Huo was helped to the side and looked at the scene in front of him in fear. He never knew that the rumored third young master of the Yun family, who was a businessman, knew martial arts. Moreover, his internal energy was so rich that it was on par with his master's. He had asked for Third Young Master Yun's help because he thought that he had a wide network of friends and that he would definitely have a spiritual master by his side to help. He did not expect that he himself was so well-hidden.
Guiding the zhenqi of others was a slow and dangerous process. Ji Zi had never tried it before, but she knew the specific procedure.
However, she did not dare to use the conventional method to fight head-on with the other party. After thinking about it, she still chose a shortcut.
Four hours later, Ji Zi's head was already covered in sweat. Qian Yan carefully wiped her sweat, but her heart was extremely anxious.
At this moment, Ji Zi had already entered another mysterious realm. She felt like she was playing hide-and-seek in another person's body…
The wisp of zhenqi she had injected was not strong. Although the other party had sensed her and wanted to devour her, she hid here and there, running around in the person's meridians like a slippery loach, swimming agilely.
After another two hours, when she was almost unable to hold on any longer, she finally felt a little bit of success...
After another hour, she let out a long breath and slowly retracted her cultivation…
She really didn't expect that she would succeed on her first attempt to pour zhenqi for someone. However, she had put in a lot of effort. It would probably take at least ten days to half a month for her to recover. She would charge all the medical expenses to this man!
When he opened his eyes again, unexpectedly, the first thing Ji Zi saw was not Qian Yan, but another pair of dark, sharp, and cold eyes.
Her first reaction was to retreat. That pair of eyes made her feel an inexplicable sense of danger.
At this moment, Qing Xiao shouted excitedly," Master, you're finally awake!”
Yuchi Yan glanced at Qing Huo, then turned her cold eyes back to Ji Zi. She pursed her lips and asked coldly," You saved me?”
Ji Zi forced a smile and said carelessly," Yes, 10,000 taels to save people, 30,000 taels to detoxify the poison, and 100,000 taels to channel the zhenqi. Thank you for your patronage. A total of 140,000 taels!”After saying that, he opened his palm and waited to receive the money.
Qing Huo quickly explained to his master," Master, this is Third Young Master Yun. He saved us and also helped you with the gu poison and chaotic zhenqi. I, I promised him that I would pay him a sum of silver.”
Yuchi Yan's dark eyes turned towards Ji Zi, her gaze bottomless.
Ji Zi was annoyed by his stare, but he was the one who collected the money, so his attitude was naturally better. He pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled." This young master, I am Yun Xun. May I know your name?"”
"Scenery Demon."
Ji Zi smiled." So it's Young Master Jing."”
The other party shook his head." Jing Ying is my character."”As he spoke, he paused for a moment." You can call me that.”
Ji Zi…
She asked him for his name, and he actually told her his name directly. Since ancient times, only elders and relatives could call him by his name. If she remembered correctly, this was the first time they had met, right?
Was it because he was his savior?
Wait, she didn't want to be this person's savior. She wanted money! It was money!
It was not good to make his thoughts too clear. Ji Zi waved his fan and said with a smile," Young Master Jing is a man of character. Today, fate has allowed me to make friends with you. However, friendship is friendship, but the accounts must be clear. 140,000 taels. I don't know if Young Master intends to pay with silver or silver notes. I will also accept gold."”
Yuchi Yan was silent for a moment before she slowly said," I don't have money.”
Ji Zi…
No, what did he mean by no money?
Ji Zi did not want to be impulsive, but his breathing was already a little hurried." Young Master, are you joking?”
"I never joke." Yuchi Yan said calmly, then spread her arms." Search me if you don't believe me.”
Who wants to search your body!
Ji Zi's sharp gaze shot towards Qing Huo. Qing Huo choked. He also felt that if they really went back on their word, it would be a little unreasonable. He walked to his master's side and whispered," Master, we still have 50,000 taels for emergencies…"
Ji Zi had sharp ears and immediately said," 50,000 taels is fine too. Just treat it as the first payment."”Even if she couldn't pay it off in one go, she would accept it. At most, she could pay it in installments. She could also earn more interest in installments. It wasn't impossible.
Yuchi Yan said calmly," These are the money for the return trip. You can't touch them.”
Ji Zi was so angry that she laughed. She could finally tell that this man was really planning to go back on his word.
"Young Master Jing, it's better not to lose your bearing when you're in the martial world. I've worked for you for half a day, you can't just not give me any compensation.”
" I will naturally give you the reward." As he spoke, he reached into his pocket and took out a jade pendant with a viburne flower and handed it to her.
Ji Zi sneered and did not take it." It's just a piece of jade, and it's made of Hetian jade. Even if the craftsmanship is good, it can only be sold for a few dozen taels outside. Is Young Master Jing joking?"”
Qing Xiao, who was beside him, was stunned. He said in shock," Master, this thing was left behind by the old madam. It has extraordinary significance. You can't use this to pay off the debt."”
However, Yuchi Yan acted as if she did not hear what he said. She only pushed the jade pendant in front of Ji Zi, her low voice carrying a steady tone." In the future, I will look for you to redeem it."”
Ji Zi was so angry that he wanted to curse. He had worked so hard for so long in exchange for this broken jade pendant. What was the meaning of this?
Would she believe him just because he said he was coming to redeem her? What if he disappeared after he left? This thing might have some meaning to him, but no matter how meaningful it was, it was not worth 140,000 taels of silver!
On the other hand, Qing Xiao looked as if Ji Zi had taken advantage of him. He stared at the jade pendant with an unwilling expression.
Ji Zi took a few breaths to calm himself down before he began to analyze.
This demon had rich internal energy, and his zhenqi was even above hers. If they were to fight head-on, he would not be able to recover from his serious injuries, and she had used up so much internal energy just now. It would probably only cause both sides to suffer. Thinking about it, it was not worth it.
