Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 116: Chapter 102: Ji Yuan’s Strength

Based on the familial ethics, the Patriarch of the Yue Family, Yue Zhu, should be this Wang Shan’s...unclen.

So, how is this any different from treachery?!

Even though Ji Yuan had heard of many shocking things in his past life, this was the first time he encountered such an event happening around him, naturally making him a bit surprised.

Thinking of it like this, no wonder Wen Lin would say his old man has a weak nature.

To be able to watch his own wife become his uncle’s lover... this kind of tolerance isn’t something ordinary people have. In this way, he’s quite ruthless.

”Precisely.”

Wen Lin displayed a mocking expression, ”Just an adulterer and a whore. Yue Zhu had a hand in my mother’s death too. He tacitly approved of all these happenings. Otherwise, that bitch Wang Shan wouldn’t have had the guts to kill my mother.”

”Yue Zhu is the second person I want to kill.”

As Wen Lin spoke, he handed over the second scroll.

This time, Ji Yuan examined it more carefully because Yue Zhu is not only the Patriarch of the Yue Family but also a cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Cultivation.

Currently, Ji Yuan’s cultivation is at the ninth level of Qi Cultivation. Going against an eighth level, he must give it his all and not underestimate him in the slightest.

This year, Yue Zhu did not attend the Water Dragon Sect’s selection.

Therefore, he wasn’t sent to the front line and is still at the Yue Family. He’s likely not going to the selection next year either.

The route he’s taking should be the one of Blind Qin, to stay and guard the Cloud Rain Marsh.

Having looked through the scroll, Ji Yuan put it away, then raised his head to ask, ”Who is the last person?”

In total, Wen Lin wanted Ji Yuan to kill three people, all are in the late stage of Qi Cultivation.

So far, he has only shared information about two of them.

”As for the third person.”

Wen Lin shook his head, ”Though he’s also at Spirit Mountain Square, he’s not a part of the Yue family but rather a Loose Cultivator, Zhou Qingfa. This year he joined the Water Dragon Sect through selection and got sent to the front line.”

”If he dies on the front line, that would be ideal.”

”If not... when Brother Ji encounters him someday in the Water Dragon Sect, helping me with my revenge would be best. If it’s inconvenient, that’s fine too.”

Ji Yuan thought for a moment, then slowly nodded, ”Alright.”

He previously accepted the incomplete Foundation Establishment Pill recipe from Wen Lin, and the Yue Family also has the main ingredient, a thousand-year Qinghui Grass, for crafting the Foundation Establishment Pill.

So this task... it’s worth doing regardless.

A cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Cultivation and another at the seventh level, it shouldn’t be an issue. It’s just that Spirit Mountain Square is a bit far, located at one corner of the Cloud Rain Marsh where fishermen are few, and most make a living with other jobs, so it doesn’t have much presence within Cloud Rain Marsh.

If he departs tonight, he should arrive by tomorrow morning and might return by the fastest tomorrow night.

”Then I shall leave now, the earlier I go, the sooner I return.”

Everything was prepared, there was no need to wait. Night travel is more discreet.

”Alright, I’ll leave it to Brother Ji then.” Wen Lin quickly rose to see him off.

”Mm.”

Ji Yuan left the entrance without wasting words. After summoning the Thunder Falcon Boat, he stealthily took off and vanished into the night sky.

After he left, Zhao Yuechan also emerged with Wen Linger, while Wen Lin stood at the doorway without turning back for a long time.

”Husband, I’ve mentioned before, Brother Ji is not someone to break promises. Since he made us a promise, he will certainly take vengeance for us.”

”Mm.”

Wen Lin took a deep breath before turning around.

”Brother Ji is reliable.”

After saying this, he knelt down to talk to the innocent and ignorant Wen Linger, speaking softly, ”Linger, remember this in the future, no matter what happens, your Uncle Ji is a benefactor to our family.”

Wen Linger nodded vigorously at first, then corrected, ”Not Uncle Ji, it’s Brother Ji!”

”Alright, alright, Brother Ji it is.”

Wen Lin smiled.

”...”

Though Yue Zhu is over eighty years old, thanks to his early years of body cultivation, his health remains robust.

At dawn, he woke from a deep sleep and gazed at the still charming and beautiful woman beside him, feeling slightly stirred, though his body had no reaction.

He’s aged.

He truly is aging.

As soon as he sat up, the woman next to him woke up as well, her dreamy eyes opening as she sat up.

”Uncle, let me serve you in dressing.”

”Let Xiao Hong handle these small tasks.”

Though Yue Zhu said this, he did not move, evidently expecting the woman to serve him.

A stranger can’t compare to an insider’s care.

Not to mention other playful deeds can accompany dressing.

”Uncle, has any news come from Xuan Qing’s side?”

While dressing Yue Zhu, Wang Shan asked softly.

Xuan Qing, whose full name is Yue Xuan Qing, is the Yue Family’s third late-stage Qi Cultivator. During this year’s selection by the Water Dragon Sect... he went, and so he entered.

Initially, the Yue Family celebrated it as a huge blessing.

Having a Water Dragon Sect disciple from one’s home is undeniably a joyous matter, but upon receiving news that Yue Xuan Qing was headed to the front lines to battle the Joy Palace, anxiety seeped into the Yue Family.

”No news yet, it’s not easy getting updates from the front line.”

As Yue Zhu spoke, he glanced back at the barely dressed beautiful woman, ”Rest assured, I still have some years ahead to take care of you.”

Wang Shan’s complexion paled, she hastily said, ”Uncle, what are you saying? In my view, Uncle will surely become a Foundation Establishment Master, and then, you might end up forgetting about me.”

Foundation Establishment Master... Hearing this, Yue Zhu felt a thrill in his heart.

For others in the Cloud Rain Marsh, Foundation Establishment seemed like an unattainable feat, but for Yue Zhu, it appeared just within reach, something he could almost grasp if he tried.
