Chapter 237 Ji Bochang's Suggestion, Ji Qingfei's Refusal [Requesting Monthly Tickets]

The next moment, Ji Bochang said:

"Let's leave it at that for today and discuss it another day."

After saying this, Ji Bochang took the lead and walked out of the main hall.

Ji Qingfei followed closely behind.

The two quickly traversed several areas and finally arrived at a secluded spot in the back mountains.

This was the place where Ji Haoyuan once practiced.

At this moment, two people were standing in this place.

Who else could it be but Ji Haoyuan and Binghuo Zhenren?

"Haoyuan!"

"Uncle Zeng!"

Upon seeing Ji Haoyuan, both Ji Bochang and Ji Qingfei were clearly pleasantly surprised.

However, they soon noticed the Ice and Fire Master next to Ji Haoyuan.

Surprised, he quickly prepared to step forward and pay his respects.

However, he was interrupted by Ice and Fire Master with a smile.

"Elder Chief, there's no need to be so polite with me, and no need for those formalities."

Ji Bochang was clearly quite familiar with the relationship between Ji Haoyuan and Binghuo Zhenren.

Upon hearing what Master Binghuo said, he subconsciously glanced at Ji Haoyuan.

But Ji Haoyuan smiled and nodded at him.

"Senior sister is right."

Uncle, there's really no need for us to be so polite with my senior sister.

After a pause, Ji Haoyuan continued:
"The reason I'm only communicating with you telepathically is because I want to talk to you about something privately."

Then, Ji Haoyuan told the two of them that he had become a formal elder of the Yanfa Sect.

In addition, he also told Ji Bochang and Ji Qingfei the purpose of his return to the family.

Both of them were clearly surprised after hearing this.

Unexpectedly, after all these years, Ji Haoyuan has become a formal elder in the Nascent Soul Sect.

This is undoubtedly a great thing for the Ji family.

It's like adding another layer of background without you even realizing it.

Moreover, they are the kind of people that others dare not easily provoke.

However, both of them showed a cautious attitude towards what Ji Haoyuan said later.

Especially Ji Bochang.

He looked at Ji Haoyuan and said in a serious tone:

"Haoyuan, I have no objection to you bringing some of your family members to join the Yanfa Sect."

But my fear is that some people might take advantage of your position to bully others.

At this point, Ji Bochang paused slightly, then said with a somewhat solemn expression:

"To be honest, before you came, we were holding a meeting to further standardize and improve our family rules and regulations."

As you probably know, thanks to you, the Ji family has seen tremendous growth and development over the years.

However, precisely because of the rapid development, some problems inevitably arise in the mentality of some members of the clan.

Self-righteous, bullying the weak, and condescending...

You can ask Qingfei; over the years, he's personally dealt with quite a few members of his clan.

"Yes."

At this moment, Ji Qingfei nodded and interjected:
“I hadn’t thought about it before, but when a family grows to a certain size, similar problems seem inevitable.”

Fortunately.

This is just the beginning; if we quickly standardize clan rules and adjust some plans, we should be able to turn things around.

"so……"

Ji Bochang looked at Ji Haoyuan again.

"If you want to bring your clan members into the Yanfa Sect, you must select people who are truly virtuous and kind. Moreover, I personally suggest that the number should not be too large."

Because wherever there are many people, problems are prone to arise. At that time, you will inevitably have to bear the corresponding responsibilities and consequences.

Because from the very beginning, they were already labeled with your name.

Even if they are fortunate enough to become disciples of an elder in the future, this principle will remain unchanged.

It must be said that every word Ji Bochang said was based on Ji Haoyuan's perspective.

Moreover, what they said made a lot of sense and was not unfounded.

Ji Haoyuan would naturally not disappoint Ji Bochang's good intentions.

In fact, he didn't intend to bring too many people with him when he came back this time.

Although he is playing the role of a Buddhist monk, his current status and position are already extraordinary.

In terms of combat skills, he can be considered the best among those below the Nascent Soul stage in the sect.

But he is not yet a Nascent Soul cultivator.

There are some things that can indeed be done, and others won't say much about them if they're not there.

But as Ji Bochang said, if any of the people he brought caused any problems within the sect, he would inevitably bear the corresponding responsibility and consequences.

Most importantly, he brought people to perform at the Dharma Sect in order to cultivate talent and provide them with a more suitable platform, rather than to act as their caretakers.

and so……

Ji Haoyuan looked at Ji Bochang and Ji Qingfei, thought for a moment, and said:
"In that case, Uncle, please help me choose three people."

It doesn't matter if your cultivation level is low; even the early stage of Qi Refining is fine.

But as you just said, Uncle, we must ensure there are no problems with his temperament.

Having said that, Ji Haoyuan seemed to have thought of something else and couldn't help but look at Ji Qingfei and say:

"By the way, Qingfei, would you like to come with me this time?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Qingfei smiled and shook his head.

"Thank you, Uncle Zeng, but I think I'd better not go."

After all, I have a lot of things you left me, so I don't lack anything in terms of cultivation.

And most importantly, the family still can't do without me.

What he said was true.

Ji Qingfei has already established considerable prestige within the Ji family.

Many matters, both big and small, basically need to go through his hands.

Most importantly, he is indeed not lacking in cultivation resources.

At least for now, there is not much shortage.

Given his actual blood relationship with Ji Haoyuan, whether he goes to Yanfa Sect or not doesn't really make much difference.

On the contrary, staying in the family provides more freedom and room for development.

"Then it's up to you."

Ji Haoyuan reached out and patted Ji Qingfei on the shoulder.

"However, there is one thing you need to remember: for us cultivators, cultivation level and strength are always the most important things, no matter when or where."

Power, status, and everything else—once separated from one's own cultivation and strength—are all castles in the air, capable of collapsing at any moment.

"Yes, grandson will remember his great-uncle's teachings!"

At this moment, Ji Qingfei's heart also tightened slightly.

indeed.

During this period, he did indeed slack off somewhat in his cultivation.

Unexpectedly, my great-uncle Zeng recognized it at a glance.

"Oh, right, Uncle, this is for you."

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, Ji Haoyuan handed a jade box to Ji Bochang.

Then Ji Haoyuan said, "This item is called Eastern Green Jade Marrow. It can keep a person at the peak of their vitality until their time is up."

That's all I can do for now.

"After I enter that Blessed Cliff Secret Realm, I'll check again to see if there are any spiritual items that can repair the damage to your foundation, Uncle."
