Chapter 939: Chapter 371: Ji Qianqian

Finally, there was the group of Jianghu Wanderers led by the yellow-faced middle-aged man.

The six were completely intact.

Although their appearance looked disheveled, with clothes and armor damaged in places, they were all safe and sound.

The yellow-faced middle-aged man, upon seeing Ji Qianqian, felt a slight surprise and then placed his hand on his sword, smiling as he inquired, “What are you doing here?”

“Personal business!” Ji Qianqian replied calmly, meeting his gaze, “It has nothing to do with you.”

The yellow-faced middle-aged man couldn’t help squinting his eyes, beginning to scrutinize Ji Qianqian up and down.

Ji Qianqian felt his gaze, as sharp as a blade scraping across her body.

Ji Qianqian was unfazed.

This man was most likely the one suppressing Da Heitian Jialuo single-handedly in the mist.

And able to protect six people safely through the Earth Abyss; the prowess of this man is thus evident.

“I Am Supreme Blade!” The yellow-faced middle-aged man’s lips curled upward, “Such a fine court hawk!”

Ji Qianqian’s heart tightened.

She could feel the Sword Intent of the yellow-faced middle-aged man already reaching her brow.

However, just as she thought the yellow-faced middle-aged man was about to draw his blade on her, he released his grip on the sword and turned to fly northward through the air.

His broad sleeves fluttered, his posture carefree, “Consider yourself lucky! If it weren’t for the strict laws within the Immortal Palace, I would have taken your life.”

Ji Qianqian furrowed her brows but soon recovered her calm expression, continuing to wait.

As the crowd in the distance disappeared into the thick fog ahead, Ji Qianqian apathetically threw out the black flag from her sleeve.

The black flag pierced the Han white jade ground, instantly expanding layers of runes rapidly spreading in all directions.

Shortly after, several masked black figures appeared one after another in the center of the talisman array.

“Unexpectedly, this Magic Artifact truly helped us smuggle into the Cloud Sea Immortal Palace.”

These black figures were initially ethereal before gradually solidifying.

One person coldly eyed Ji Qianqian, “Why wait until now? We’ve been waiting outside for a whole month.”

Ji Qianqian looked at the people before her, involuntarily taking a deep breath, yet her gaze gradually hardened and cooled, her voice as cold and hard as ice, “It’s not that I didn’t want to summon you into the palace, but there was no chance.”

“Is that so?” The person sneered coldly, his eyes indifferent.

He then glanced around, “Where is Chu Xisheng? This First Grade ‘Deceiving Heaven and Earth’ method can only last two minutes. We must slay him within this time.”

Upon hearing this, Ji Qianqian lowered her head, tightly gripping the Solo Supreme Blade hidden in her sleeve, “Indeed, we only have two minutes.”

At this moment, her pupils also revealed a hint of scarlet.

Meanwhile, in You State City.

Qingxuzi stepped on a sword soaring down, his figure transforming into light, entering a secluded dwelling.

The dwelling was simple and unadorned, empty.

Yet when Qingxuzi landed in the courtyard, a young man pushed the door open.

As he pushed the door, his voice was full of helplessness, “Qingxuzi Uncle, if you’d been more discreet when arriving, my identity would remain hidden.”

Qingxuzi turned his gaze over.

He was a young man around thirty years old, over seven feet tall with a slender waist and broad shoulders, a face as white as jade, eyebrows like swords pointing upward and into his hair, a nose like a jade pillar, lips like vermillion, eyes clear and distinct, full of heroism.

Upon seeing this person, Qingxuzi’s lips slightly curled, “Looking quite healthy, it seems your cultivation has progressed. Let’s skip the small talk, Wan Qi nephew, I’ve come this time at the Sect Master’s request to inquire about matters concerning Ji Qianqian.”

The young man turned out to be Ji Qianqian’s superior, the Heavenly Jinyi Guards Commander, Wan Qi Luohou.

Upon hearing this, he let out a light laugh, “It seems the Sect remains uneasy about Ji Qianqian, doesn’t it?”
