A life of clearness

Chapter 216 Trading
A bare hand lifted the teapot and poured it out. The amber tea flowed into the empty cup.

"He is just a fool. Why are you so angry?" A woman in black gauze appeared in front of the flower owner. She picked up a small teacup but did not drink it. Instead, she put it to her nose and sniffed the fragrance. "If we talk about fragrance, the one here is the best. Even the fragrance of tea is the same."

"Princess Ji, you are too kind." The Flower Lord's eyelashes trembled slightly. "With the background of the Ji Dynasty, what rare treasures have you not seen? These things of mine are not rare treasures."

Princess Ji smiled but said nothing.

The Ji Dynasty had indeed been gone for a long time, but when the Ji Dynasty was still around, almost every emperor was a spiritual cultivator, and their power was huge. The various collections reached their peak during the last emperor's reign, and as the last emperor's favorite concubine, Concubine Ji had seen a lot of good things.

Seeing that Concubine Ji didn't say anything, Hua Zhu had no choice but to continue, "I wonder if there is any news from the Underworld?"

"What's the hurry?" Princess Ji yawned lazily. "The rules in the underworld are strict. Even I have to follow the rules."

"How can I not be anxious?" Hua Zhu smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid the position of the next inspector will fall on my head."

"Isn't it good for a dignified inspector to be in charge of Cangliuzhou?"

"It's a tough job. Once you take it over, it's hard to get rid of it."

Hua Zhu knew that the inspector wanted to pass the position to her because she met all the requirements. However, she also wanted to find her own opportunity in Xuanfeng Realm!
Being an inspector is a hard job. He has to train the younger generation, manage the whole family of Cangliuzhou, and endure the bullying under the Sword Sect. The inspector has a chance to ask the Sword Master for a place to go to Xuanfeng Realm, but what about Huazhu? She is a cultivator of the same period as the inspector. If she waits until the day she steps down as the inspector, her life span will be almost gone!

In this case, she had to find another way.

The Flower Lord turned her gaze towards Concubine Ji. She knew Concubine Ji, but their relationship was average. It was only when she suddenly came to her place and hid away in recent years that she had a deeper understanding of her.

"It seems like Concubine Ji is hiding from someone?" Flower Lord thought to himself, "To force a Divine Being to hide, the other party must be quite capable. But I have to thank that person. Without him, I would not be able to make a deal with Concubine Ji."

"So, you have to find a way to get to Xuanfeng Realm by yourself." Princess Ji smiled softly, her beautiful face becoming even brighter. "You and I each get what we need, it's a good deal."

The several opening of the heavens had already made the inspector familiar with the aristocratic families in the Xuanfeng Realm. As far as the Flower Master knew, the inspector must have been connected with a certain aristocratic family, which was why he tried every means to get a beacon from the Sword Master.

Hua Zhu currently does not have as many connections as the Inspector does to establish connections with certain aristocratic families, but the Xuanfeng Realm is not dominated by aristocratic families.

In the Xuanfeng Realm, in addition to the aristocratic families, there is also the mysterious Hades, and the power of the Hades is far greater than that of the many aristocratic families combined. Of course, Hua Zhu can't go to the Xuanfeng Realm alone. As a cultivator from the mother realm, wouldn't she die faster than anyone else in a place where there are many incarnations? !

She also needed to get close to a power, and the best person to make this connection was the Imperial Concubine Ji in front of her. Although Imperial Concubine Ji was unable to obtain the Dao Mark to go to the Xuanfeng Realm, the Hades lineage had its own magic method. It could lead the cultivator's consciousness to the Hades, where cultivation was not restricted by geographical space at all.

Moreover, according to Concubine Ji's description, as long as they reach a certain level of cultivation or their cultivation speed is fast enough to attract the attention of powerful cultivators, the Underworld will even send people to guide them, the cultivators from the mother world.

Hearing all this, the flower owner felt very excited.

She had been silent in this Cangliu Continent, and even in this Mother Realm, for too long. If she had the opportunity to go to a wider world, maybe her hidden talent would be stimulated?
What she lacks now is such an opportunity!

"Is the person you want to hide from in the North Pole?" Flower Lord asked tentatively. But this question almost pointed out that it was the people of Liuguang Sword Sect who forced Concubine Ji to hide.

Princess Ji nodded and said calmly, "I am avoiding her, but I am not afraid of her." "Her?"

"That's the person that idiot just mentioned."

It was Yu Rong. Hua Zhu immediately understood who she was referring to. She thought to herself that this woman was really good at stirring up trouble. It seemed like she had a hand in everything.

"If you are not afraid, why are you hiding?" the flower owner asked with a smile.

"For the sake of Sword Master Ji Ming, I dare not touch his disciples." Princess Ji drank the tea in the cup and licked her lips. The pink lips added to the charm with the water color, even the Flower Master felt a little itchy. She secretly sighed that she was worthy of being Princess Ji. This charm was far better than some inferior charm cultivation techniques.

"Otherwise, he will blame me." Princess Ji said with a smile, more intimately.

"Master Ji Ming—" Hua Zhu was stunned. Didn't he follow the ruthless sword path? Looking at Princess Ji, she suddenly realized, "No wonder, he slaughtered the entire Ji family, but only spared you."

The sword master Ji Ming was too ruthless back then, and he took collective punishment to the extreme. Even the fetuses still in the mother's womb were killed together with their mothers. Those who were related to the Ji family were not spared. It should be impossible for the Ji imperial concubine to escape, but she still survived, and lived to this day, and even became a spiritual cultivator.

With the strength of the Sword Master, even if Concubine Ji could escape for a while, she couldn't escape forever. Therefore, there was only one explanation left, that is, Sword Master Ji Ming had feelings for Concubine Ji. Otherwise, this explanation didn't make sense at all.

Apparently, Princess Ji herself thought so too.

"So I can't attack his disciples again." If she can't afford to provoke him, she can always hide. Of course, if Rong Qing is determined to come and provoke her, she is not afraid.

As long as the master of the Ji Ming sword protects her, Rong Qing can do nothing no matter how unwilling she is.

"So you've already laid hands on her?"

“Yes.” Concubine Ji narrowed her eyes slightly, recalling what happened at that time, “Her cultivation level was only at the foundation-building stage at that time, but she was not afraid of me at all. You also know the sword intent in her hand. In order to avoid her sword intent, I subconsciously used a little more strength, but I didn’t expect to destroy her physical body. I actually... just wanted the Taoist robe she was wearing.”

Like the sword master's Taoist robe, it has embroidered runes on it, which is very unique.

"She seemed to have practiced some special magic. The body that was destroyed was just a clone, and her real body was not hurt. I didn't expect that she would hate me because of this."

In Concubine Ji's helpless tone, it was as if Rong Qing was an ignorant child who was obviously let off leniently by the adults, but still threw a tantrum and made a fuss.

Hua Zhu chuckled: "After all, you are the apple of the eye of Ji Ming Jianzhu's eye. She can only be angry, but she can't hurt you at all."

This made the Flower Lord feel a little uncomfortable, especially when she saw the smug look of Concubine Ji. If the Sword Master Ji Ming had always been so cruel and ruthless, it would be fine, but once she knew that he had fallen from the clouds and fell in love, the Flower Lord's heart came alive.

Powerful and beautiful, enough to arouse a woman's greed and delusions.

I want to be the most special one in his heart.
