Chapter 116: Borrow the God Realm's Hand, Kill!
Before the competition was about to end, Shen Yuan arrived.
Accompanying him, there truly was the Fifth Generation Old Ancestor, Shen Jing.
"You guys finally came,"
Shen Qinghuang wiped a sweat from his forehead, the pressure was really high.
Shen Yuan looked disdainful, "Look at your useless appearance!"
"Fifth Generation Old Ancestor." Shen Qingli and Shen Kuo rose to pay respects.
Shen Qinghuang also bowed down, and Huang Lao Gou and the others nearby also paid their respects.
Ji Bai also had to step forward, "Shen Old Ancestor, I didn't expect to alarm you."
After all, an Imperial Envoy from the God Realm has come; I naturally should come to pay respects. Shen Jing spoke slowly.
But no one present dared to slight him! Even Yuan Changzai came out of the Grand Origin Hall.
"Shen Jing, I didn't expect you to still be alive." Yuan Changzai sighed.
"Your nephew is becoming increasingly rude." Shen Jing said calmly.
Yuan Changzai's words choked, and he suddenly regretted appearing.
"I have seen you, great-uncle." Yuan Changzai could only say.
Shen Jing nodded, "I'm tired; there's nothing for A Li to do here, right?"
"This," Ji Bai looked toward the Cave Heaven Old Ancestor and Ge Chongrui.
"Gone, gone!" Ge Chongrui immediately said, "Shen Young Master's pills are undoubtedly first."
No matter how the Cave Heaven Old Ancestor could manipulate the Sheng Long Tian pill-making world, he now couldn't call a deer a horse, so he could only nod, "Not bad."
Shen Jing also didn't sit down, gazing brightly at A Li, "Let's go back first."
"Okay." Shen Qingli nodded, turned and horizontally embraced the still-sleeping Di Jin.
Pei Jianshu, who had been watching her all along, instantly snapped the chair's armrest.
The scene was also full of astonishment, but thinking that this person was a childhood fiancé, it seemed not wrong either.
Only Shen Jing and Shen Yuan were surprised, "This is..."
"It's A Jin." Shen Qingli answered.
Actually she didn't feel anything wrong; after all, from her personal feelings, she still regarded Di Jin more as a brother.
"So what's the problem with an older sister hugging a younger brother? None."
Although she had never hugged before, she was actually a bit unskilled.
Especially since Di Jin is tall and long-legged, he almost dragged on the ground……
Only because Shen Qingli is also tall enough did she barely prevent Di Jin's long legs from dragging on the ground.
Shen Kuo: "... Dad coming would have been enough; why did you do it yourself?"
Shen Qingli was stunned for a moment; indeed, it should have been Dad who held him.
But having already held him, Shen Qingli said, "Let's go back first."
"Let's go."
The group directly vanished from the spot and entered the Grand Origin Sect Guest Courtyard.
The Grand Origin Sect's restrictions and such were directly ignored by Shen Jing……
Ji Bai was speechless; this person obviously also touched the power of rules! Only then could he ignore the Grand Origin Sect's existing outer restrictions.
He originally thought he was the sole person in Sheng Long Tian capable of grasping some rule power, but he didn't expect that even after crippling Jiang Yuan, he still wasn't the only one.
Thus Jiang Yuan's life must not be spared.
Ji Bai suppressed his ruthlessness, also knowing that for now, if he directly killed Jiang Yuan, the Grand Origin Sect would suffer, and he would too.
For now, the plan is to probe the attitude of that Vermilion Bird Palace Prince.
Or, we could plot how to use the God Realm's hand to kill Jiang Yuan.
'Troublesome.'
Ji Bai originally kept Jiang Yuan's life to manipulate Shen Qingli, but he didn't expect that a single Longevity Pill would reverse the situation.
'But letting him just release Jiang Yuan is impossible! Jiang Yuan must die, just not by the Grand Origin Sect's hand.'
Guest Courtyard.
The three generations of the Shen clan seated were all looking at Di Jin lying on the soft couch.
'Father, what exactly happened to A Jin?' Shen Qingli was a bit worried.
After she focused on alchemy, she didn't notice outside, and didn't know how Di Jin just fell unconscious.
Jiu Li said it could handle this: 'The soul has left the body.'
'He said he had something to do and wanted to nap awhile.' Shen Kuo added, 'He didn't expect to nap all day.'
'Reckless.' Shen Jing commented, 'If he still doesn't wake up tonight, we need to find a way.'
If the soul leaves the body too long, not only will the soul encounter problems, but the body will also have issues.
But Jiu Li said, 'His words should be fine, but we must protect his body well.'
Shen Jing looked at it, 'Jiu Li.'
'Mm-hmm~' Jiu Li replied, 'Old man, you have little life left and still came out.'
Shen Qingli immediately looked at Shen Jing and handed over the freshly refined Longevity Pill, 'Ancestor, for you.'
Shen Jing didn't take it; he still didn't know Shen Qingli could already refine miraculous pills.
'Ancestor, quickly take it and swallow it! This is the top-grade pill Shen Qingli refined today...' Shen Qinghuang chattered on, describing today's competition scene in full.
Shen Jing slightly startled, 'If I were to die in the future, little A Li would hardly be able to move an inch.'
"Exactly! So I was still urging my dad to come just now." Shen Qinghuang looked toward Shen Yuan.
"That would be inside the teleportation formation; I didn't have time to look." Shen Yuan felt relieved, "The Hunyuan Sect told all forces about the imperial envoy matter, but they kept it hidden from our sect; I feared they would resort to extreme measures, so I went to ask the ancestral patriarch."
Actually, when the Fifth Generation Ancestor heard about this matter and decided to come, he had already prepared himself for a peaceful death. After all, just like Ge Chongrui, the medicinal stones of Sheng Long Tian had long been ineffective for him.
But this result, neither Shen Jing nor Shen Yuan mentioned it.
Shen Jing's gaze at Shen Qingli was gentle, and also carried a gratified sense of shared honor.
"Good child." Even before seeing Shen Qingli, Shen Jing knew that this little one who could startle the Ancestral Phoenix would surely be outstanding.
But Shen Qingli had returned less than a year ago and already achieved these feats, which even he had not anticipated; she is truly outstanding.
"Please stop praising me, just take it first." Shen Qingli urged; she is not slow-witted, and she fully understands what it means that the Fifth Generation Ancestor, risking his remaining lifespan, has come to protect her.
"Good." Shen Jing did not refuse and took the porcelain bottle.
At the moment he opened the stopper, he was moved, "Indeed, it is supreme quality."
He had thought that Shen Qinghuang's child was saying things a bit exaggerated, but he didn't expect it to be the truth.
"Hurry hurry hurry, Old Ancestor, after you take it, you can better protect A Li." Shen Yuan also urged.
"Taking medicine on someone else's turf, aren't you being a bit reckless?" Jiu Li asked.
Shen Qingli did not understand, "Isn't this a pill for healing and extending lifespan? How could there be danger?"
"The pill itself is harmless, but the old man might have just broken through; isn't the breakthrough process dangerous?"
Shen Qinghuang was astonished, "Can a longevity pill even allow a breakthrough?!"
"Ordinary ones cannot, but this pill might truly allow it; if it really enables ascension, I might even ascend directly."
Shen Jing knew his own cultivation level, understood that Jiu Li's words were not false, and had already put the stopper back, but——
"It's fine, I was just staring." Di Jin suddenly spoke.
Everyone was startled, looked at him, and only then realized he had woken up at some point.
Shen Jing's old eyebrows twitched slightly; this kid...
Shen Qingli immediately asked, "How did you sleep so long, what were you doing?"
"It's fine." Di Jin said it was fine, but his spirit was a bit listless, "Ancestor, please take it first."
Jiang Yuan's side has already messed up; he must ensure success in three days, otherwise his sister will be upset.
"After taking it, you just need to seal the Divine Palace with your divine sense; that will ensure you won't undergo God Transformation for the time being." Di Jin gave the hint, "There's no need to worry on the Hunyuan Sect's side; my sister and I will set up a seal."
"That matter shouldn't be delayed; you say, I'll come." Shen Qingli was very decisive, but she didn't allow Di Jin to act; she would do it herself so he could rest.
Although Shen Jing and the others had many questions, they also knew to prioritize, so they all first followed Shen Qingli's arrangements.
Thus, after Shen Jing had adjusted his condition, he began taking the Life-Extending Pill.
And Ji Bai, he was already standing outside Hunyuan Peak's hall, knocking on the doors, "Young master."
No one answered inside the hall; only that vermilion scroll continued to emit a mysterious golden glow.
"Young master?" Ji Bai knocked on the hall doors again, "Junior Ji Bai, I have an important matter to request an audience; may I come in?"
The hall doors of Hunyuan Peak slowly opened……
At the same moment! Di Jin spat out a mouthful of blood.
