920: Ji Family Treasure Pavilion

At this moment, countless people in Kaiyuan City were discussing Ji Wuchang.

The Xia Family, Nangong Family, Imperial Nangong Family, and Yu Family were all the same, because the surname 'Ji' was too sensitive.

The power of the Ji Family was recognized throughout the Tianchen Continent; even powerful families like the Xia Family and Yu Family couldn't compare to them!

In the backyard of the Yu Family, Yu Gang stood before an elder, his attitude very respectful.

One must know that Yu Gang was a genuine eighth-level supreme realm cultivator!

In the Yu Family, only one person could command such respect from him: the Yu Family Old Ancestor.

Even the Yu Family Patriarch's cultivation was only comparable to Yu Gang's.

Yu Ling's growth, besides the Yu Family Old Ancestor's affection, was also due to Yu Gang's protection.

Yu Gang was nurtured by the Yu Family Old Ancestor; if not for the Yu Family Old Ancestor back then, he would have died long ago.

Therefore, Yu Gang only obeyed the Old Ancestor's commands!

In a large Family, there were naturally many unpleasant matters, and many people did not wish for Yu Ling to grow.

A peerless Prodigy pressing down on them made them feel suffocated.

But in the face of absolute strength, even with myriad schemes, they were still useless.

"Yu Gang, are you sure this Ji Wuchang is the young fellow you know?"

The Yu Family Old Ancestor narrowed his eyes, speaking languidly.

Yu Gang said solemnly, "Old Ancestor, there's no mistake. It's just that this young fellow's growth speed has exceeded this old man's expectations."

"Over the years, Young Miss has been following his growth and even made an agreement with him to go to Tianchen Academy together!"

The Yu Family Old Ancestor's eyes lit up instantly upon hearing Yu Gang's words!

"Yu Gang, why haven't I heard you mention any of this before!"

"That girl is always so cold, I thought no one could ever make her care!"

The Yu Family Old Ancestor glared fiercely at Yu Gang!

Yu Gang couldn't help but smile awkwardly, feeling very embarrassed.

"Alright, I'm too lazy to bother with you. That girl Yu Ling must have told you not to say anything."

"By the way, has Ji Wuchang's identity been thoroughly investigated?"

The Yu Family Old Ancestor spoke slowly, a glint of wisdom flickering in his eyes.

Hearing this, Yu Gang's expression instantly turned solemn, and he spoke gravely, "The investigation is almost complete. He is also a member of the Ji Family!"

"If our deduction isn't wrong, he is the son of the current Ji Family Patriarch!"

"Old Ancestor, do you still remember that incident from a few decades ago?"

The Yu Family Old Ancestor pondered for a moment upon hearing Yu Gang's words, then his eyes lit up, and he smiled, saying, "The Li Family!"

Yu Gang quickly nodded.

The matter between the Ji Family Patriarch and the Young Miss of the Li Family had a huge impact on the Tianchen Continent back then.

But no one knew that they actually had a son.

"Some time ago, a major battle broke out within the Ji Family, and many branch families were annihilated!"

"Although this matter was extremely secretive, it couldn't be hidden from us."

"I've been thinking about this, but I haven't figured out why the Ji Family would do such a thing!"

"Now it seems, it was all for this boy!"

"Send people to keep an eye on him. Now that his identity is exposed, it will inevitably attract countless pursuers!"

"Since that girl Yu Ling cares about him, I, the Old Ancestor, cannot just stand by!"

The Yu Family Old Ancestor spoke with a smile, a glimmer of wisdom in his eyes.

Yu Gang nodded upon hearing this, and quickly went to make arrangements.

The Yu Family Old Ancestor looked in the direction of the Imperial City, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

The Yu Family had offended the Imperial Nangong Family, and a great battle was bound to break out sooner or later; it was unavoidable!

Everything he was doing now was a precaution.

After the Yu Family rejected the Nangong Family's marriage alliance last time, the Nangong Family set their sights on the Nangong Family.

According to the information the Yu Family received, these two families intended to form a marriage alliance.

Once they united, the Yu Family would be in danger.

Of course, if they wanted to move against the Yu Family, they would have to think carefully, as a misstep could lead to severe losses.

Moreover, the Xia Family would not stand idly by!

After all, breaking the balance would not benefit the Xia Family!

The Yu Family Old Ancestor withdrew his gaze, his expression returning to calm.

Ji Wuchang walked out of Tianhe Hall, strolling forward. He knew that he had been targeted by a certain force.

His past would be continuously dug up, which was not good for him.

He disliked the feeling of being watched; he preferred to quietly make a fortune.

Kaiyuan City was extremely prosperous, and many rare items found elsewhere seemed very common here.

Just then, a burst of exclamations came from the crowd ahead.

Ji Wuchang looked up, his pupils contracting slightly.

He saw a massive Vicious Beast charging towards him on the distant street.

This Vicious Beast was covered in black spikes, over ten zhang long, with a mouth like an alligator's, filled with a row of snow-white teeth.

On the back of this Vicious Beast stood three people, all women.

The leading woman wore a veil, her true appearance hidden, and she exuded a pressure of the second level Celestial Phenomenon Realm.

Of the two women behind her, one was clearly a maid, but her cultivation was not weak, at the eighth level Dao Severing Realm.

The other, however, had the pressure of a second-level supreme realm cultivator.

"Move aside quickly!"

A loud shout came from the maid's mouth!

People on both sides of the street quickly moved aside, fearing they would be knocked away by the Vicious Beast if they were too slow.

Ji Wuchang's eyes narrowed slightly. This Vicious Beast was not simple; it was actually a seventh-tier Vicious Beast!

He also moved to the side, his expression calm.

Soon, the Vicious Beast passed by him, and he felt a Divine Soul sweep over him.

This Divine Soul belonged to the second-level supreme realm woman; she wasn't targeting Ji Wuchang alone, but everyone.

After they had gone far, Ji Wuchang smiled and asked a man next to him, "Fellow Daoist, who was that person who just passed by?"

The man, a fifth-level Dao Severing Realm cultivator, initially didn't want to answer, but feeling the Celestial Phenomenon Realm aura from Ji Wuchang, he quickly spoke.

"Fellow Daoist must be visiting Kaiyuan City for the first time, otherwise, how could you not know Princess Ao Rou!"

The man glanced around, seeing no one paying attention to them, and whispered, "Fellow Daoist, you must be careful and never offend her!"

"She is the most favored princess of the Great Immortal Dynasty; if you offend her, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

After speaking, the man nodded to Ji Wuchang and left without further delay.

Ji Wuchang glanced at the people around him, seeing many faces showing relief, and knew that what the man said was likely true.

He walked slowly, looking around, not taking the recent incident to heart!

A moment later, Ji Wuchang stopped, looking at a plaque in the distance, his eyes slightly narrowed.

"Ji Family Hundred Treasures Pavilion!"

He had heard Ji Yongming mention that the Ji Family had shops here!

He hadn't expected to stumble upon it during a casual stroll.

This shop was very large, an entire four-story building, with a constant stream of people entering and exiting!

Ji Wuchang hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked towards the Ji Family Hundred Treasures Pavilion!

He wanted to see what kind of things were sold inside!
