Chapter 657
The Shock of a Peak Level 9 Earth Realm Elder, Ji Ruxue: A Group of Incompetent Teammate
Ji Ruxue couldn't help but sigh.
Senior Chen not only possesses unparalleled cultivation among his peers, but he is also incredibly approachable and considerate, even in the smallest matters.
Thinking that he would help her go to the Twin Immortals Sect tomorrow, Ji Ruxue felt relieved and went to her room to rest.
On the other side, inside the small courtyard where Zhang Ru lives.
"That slut Ji Ruxue, she seems innocent on the surface, but now she's bringing men back from outside..."
It's nighttime now, and they might be doing something shady!
Desiring to investigate the situation over there, Zhang Ru, who was also at the Acquired Realm, possessed a spiritual sense that was one level lower than divine sense.
But a moment later...
"Huh, why can't I detect it?"
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Ru suddenly realized: "I forgot, that slut is at the Innate Realm, she must have set up a protective barrier!"
After a moment's thought, Zhang Ru turned around and left the courtyard, heading towards Cheng Yuan, the son of another vice president.
Although Cheng Yuan's talent cannot compare to those geniuses of Xuanzhou, it is still above average.
With the added resources of the Baichuan Chamber of Commerce, they now possess the strength of the seventh level of the Innate Realm.
"Cheng Yuan, can you help me check if that slut Ji Ruxue is secretly doing *that* kind of thing with that wild man!"
Zhang Ru revealed a sinister smile and said, "If we open the protective barrier she set up, and then use the recording stone and the sound recording jade to record her ugly behavior... then we can use them at a crucial moment to ruin her reputation!"
"In this way, my daughter has done something shameful that makes everyone in Xuanzhou laugh at her. Those retainers who were originally on good terms with her father will obviously have no face to continue helping him!"
The more Zhang Ru talked, the brighter her eyes became. She originally just wanted to mess with Ji Ruxue.
But as they talked, it seemed...
There is great potential!
Cheng Yuan, who initially thought Zhang Ru was just bored, suddenly had a flash in his eyes.
This is indeed a good plan!
With Ji Ruxue's strength at the early stage of the Innate Realm, it wouldn't take him much effort to probe her protective barrier silently.
Furthermore, although Cheng Yuan wanted the current president of Baichuan to fall and for them to reshape the political landscape, he could not ignore Ji Ruxue's beauty.
Now I hear she might be doing this kind of thing with that other guy...
Darkness and anger also began to grow in Cheng Yuan's heart.
"go!"
A moment later, the two arrived at the small courtyard that Ji Ruxue had arranged for Lu Ye.
Standing outside the courtyard, Cheng Yuan activated his spiritual sense without hesitation...
But after a few seconds, no feedback came.
"Ok?"
what happened?
Cheng Yuan frowned. With Ji Ruxue's strength, there was no way she could withstand his spiritual sense probing.
The next moment, Cheng Yuan intensified his efforts, fully utilizing his seventh-level innate spiritual sense...
But in the next second, Cheng Yuan's expression changed drastically, and he spat out a mouthful of blood!
"puff!"
Cheng Yuan was seen flying backwards for two or three meters before crashing into a large tree that could be embraced by two people, finally stopping and collapsing weakly to the ground.
"Huh?!" Zhang Ru, who was standing to the side, was completely stunned and had no idea why this situation had occurred.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Ru also suffered the same fate, being struck as if by a heavy blow and sent flying!
In an instant, both of them were seriously injured.
The sudden scream startled Ji Ruxue next door, who quickly came out of the courtyard to see what had happened. "Cheng Yuan... Zhang Ru?!"
Upon seeing the two seriously injured outside Lu Ye's courtyard, Ji Ruxue was first taken aback, then seemed to realize something, and her expression suddenly turned ugly.
She roughly guessed that these two people had most likely offended Lu Ye!
Zhang Ru and her companion were equally dumbfounded.
Why did Ji Ruxue come out of her own courtyard?!
that……
Could it be that Ji Ruxue wasn't actually in that courtyard at all?!
Their injuries were completely for nothing!
The two men's screams alerted the several retainers who had accompanied them. In an instant, several figures appeared on the spot, their expressions serious.
After all, the ones who were harmed were the children of the two vice presidents of the chamber of commerce.
"Who injured you two?" asked a seventh-level Earth Realm elder, his gaze already fixed on the small courtyard in front of him.
Although the courtyard looked normal, the intuition of a seventh-level Earth Realm cultivator told him...
This place doesn't seem to be simple.
The person accompanying them, whose highest cultivation level was the ninth level of the Earth Realm, instantly became serious.
"Please, fellow Daoist inside, come out and greet us."
“Zhang Ru and her companion offended the distinguished guests I invited. They deserve this fate entirely,” Ji Ruxue quickly interjected from the side.
She wasn't afraid that these worshippers would try to harm Lu Ye... she was afraid that the worshippers wouldn't be able to withstand a single move from their senior!
“The wild man you brought back is just a wild man, what kind of distinguished guest… cough cough cough!” Upon hearing this, Zhang Ru said with a crazy expression.
From childhood to adulthood, Zhang Ru had never suffered such a great loss!
As for the so-called remarks of a distinguished guest, Zhang Ru immediately assumed that Ji Ruxue was trying to exonerate that wild man.
How expensive can the guests be?
Zhang Ru refused to believe it!
Ji Ruxue frowned; at this moment, she really wanted to curse her bunch of incompetent teammates.
I finally managed to invite a true top expert to ensure the Chamber of Commerce's trip tomorrow is well-supported.
But then we ran into a rotten apple!
And they're even trying to ruin the whole thing.
"Take a look for yourselves."
Just then, a faint human voice came from the courtyard; it was a man's voice.
At the same time, a recording stone and a sound-recording jade were simultaneously and lightly flung out.
Seeing that the people in the courtyard were so arrogant, not showing themselves at this time, but instead throwing out recording stones and sound-recording jade, the face of Hong Yuan, the ninth-level peak Earth Realm member of the Chamber of Commerce, was not very good.
"Humph!"
With a snort, Hong Yuan waved his sleeve, intending to take the two items and see what tricks the other party was playing.
But a moment later...
Hong Yuan's face suddenly changed drastically!
These two seemingly light and flimsy items actually contained terrifying power that shocked him!
If you can't even catch something someone throws at you, wouldn't you lose all face?
Hong Yuan dared not hold back any longer and unleashed his full power, his aura at the peak of the ninth level of the Earth Realm instantly sweeping across the entire area.
Outside the courtyard.
The members of these chambers of commerce were dumbfounded.
What's going on, Master Hong?!
Why make such a fuss over just receiving two things?
Only Ji Ruxue, after a brief moment of astonishment, seemed to understand something and looked at the courtyard that had fallen silent again after a voice had been heard.
A full half minute passed before Hong Yuan finally managed to take the two items into his hands, his face covered in sweat.
My back is completely soaked!
"Thank you for your mercy, senior!" Having received the two items, Hong Yuan didn't rush to examine them; he immediately bowed respectfully towards the courtyard. (End of Chapter)
