Leaving the training ground, Yang Ji was recognized several times along the way, but he finally left the clan hinterland unimpeded.
"It's such a fast whip. If I hadn't set off first, I would have been quite far away from him. I would have really been caught by him."
Yang Ji recalled the whip Yang Meng had just given, and was secretly frightened.
There is a huge gap between people in the Breathing Realm and real "warriors". The moment Yang Meng took action, Yang Ji's biggest feeling was that it was fast, unbelievably fast, at least faster than his own speed.
If it weren't for a miscalculation, Yang Ji's "White Snake Crouching on the Grass" still retained its strength, and Yang Meng might not have missed.
"However, if I cause such a big disturbance this time, I'm afraid the eldest lady will not be able to hide it at all!"
Yang Ji thought of the eldest lady and his heart immediately sank.
Yang Meng's case doesn't matter, but the First Madam's case is troublesome.
Although this martial arts competition solved the problem that had been bothering Yang Ji for a long time, causing such a big disturbance in front of everyone also caused a lot of trouble in the future!
Yang Ji knew very well that the eldest lady was more or less wary of dealing with him in the past and did not dare to kill him directly. On the one hand, it was because she was concerned about the ancestral rules and regulations.
On the other hand, it is also because she has low martial arts skills and is helpless. In the eyes of the eldest lady, she is just a "little character" worth mentioning, and it is not worth the risk she takes for herself!
Because of the understanding, or rather the premise, that he could not threaten her, the eldest lady would be "merciful" and tolerate herself.
But now after this incident, everything is different.
He practiced martial arts secretly without telling her, and with such a high level of cultivation, he had already touched the bottom line in her heart, and this major premise no longer existed at all.
With Madam’s temperament, once she sees herself as a threat, she will definitely want to get rid of him as soon as possible!
"You must be careful in the future. However, it is a blessing, not a curse, and you cannot avoid it. If a man stretches his head, it will be a knife, and if he shrinks his head, it will be a knife. There is absolutely no reason to regret it. And even if this incident had not happened, when I was expelled
If she leaves the family, she will definitely take action if she has no scruples. The only solution now is to speed up the pace, improve her strength, and break away from the family. Only strong strength is the way to protect yourself."
Yang Ji secretly thought in his heart.
He knew that he didn't have much time, so he had to speed up his pace to improve his strength.
Whoosh!
Yang Ji straightened his body and headed towards the woodshed.
…
"What!"
When the eldest lady got the news, she was drinking tea in the living room. Suddenly, she raised her eyebrows and smashed the delicate tea cup in her hand.
"When did this happen?"
The eldest lady said with a frosty face.
"Just in the evening, Yang Meng found him peeping and asked him to go on stage to make a fool of himself. Unexpectedly, he knocked Yang Xu eight feet away!"
The man said.
"Okay. I understand."
Unexpectedly, the eldest lady's eyes flashed with light, and she suddenly calmed down: "You can go out."
Although her voice was calm, the intimate maids who were familiar with her felt a storm of anger from her brows.
"Little beast!"
After the Yang disciple left, the eldest lady suddenly raised her head, her face twitched, and a chilling light shot out from the depths of her pupils.
The last time Yang Yong was injured by Yang Ji, she had actually felt something abnormal.
But Yang Yong himself is an "ignorant" person. When asked how he was beaten, he was confused, stammered, and couldn't explain why.
She was careless and thought it was just a coincidence, so she didn't take it seriously.
But Yang Xu——
How could she not know who Yang Xu is? Although his cultivation level is not worth mentioning, he is a disciple that the clan is optimistic about and believes that he can break through to the "Martial Arts Realm" in the future. He has a cultivation level that is enough to breath the ninth level.
.
Yang Ji was able to defeat him in front of everyone. This was definitely not a coincidence.
If the Yang Ji before was just a "scabies itch", then the Yang Ji now has shown enough threat.
"Little beast, since you practice martial arts secretly, you can't blame me!"
The eldest lady grabbed the armrests of the sandalwood chair with both hands, a fierce light flashed between her brows, and she suddenly made up her mind.
She could tolerate Yang Ji reading at night in the woodshed by candlelight, secretly studying and practicing calligraphy, and she could also tolerate him contradicting her and stripping her of face in the Discipline Hall, but she could not tolerate Yang Ji secretly practicing martial arts without telling her!
This has hit her bottom!
"If we don't get rid of this child, we will definitely become a big trouble!"
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of vicious thoughts ran through her mind.
Yang Ji must die, but the matter must be done secretly, and no clues can be left, so the masters of the clan must not be used!
The doctor subconsciously thought of using outside methods.
"No, you can't pretend to be an outsider!"
Soon, the eldest lady denied this idea in her mind.
There are many masters out there, but none of them can be trusted. Loyalty is very problematic.
Once they took over their affairs and publicized it in the blink of an eye, it would be like shooting themselves in the foot. The old guys in the clan were now inseparable from her and refused to hand over the power in their hands, restricting her at every turn.
What if these clues fall into their hands and are used against themselves in the future?
"Madam, there is actually no need for you to rush into this matter."
Just when the eldest lady was in a dilemma, a steady voice suddenly came from behind, as if he already knew the reason for her dilemma.
"go out!"
The eldest lady's expression changed, and she suddenly gave orders to several of her confidants.
Her dislike of Yang Ji is an open secret in the Yang clan, so when talking about these things, she does not shy away from these confidants.
But as soon as the man spoke, the eldest lady immediately shouted away all the people around her, leaving no one behind.
"Yes, madam."
Several confidants glanced fearfully at the middle-aged butler behind the madam's sandalwood chair, and then exited the room.
The middle-aged butler was about forty, with fair skin and a sinister look. Looking at him was like being bitten by a snake, giving him a very dangerous feeling.
After everyone left, the eldest lady's expression immediately changed.
"Didn't I tell you? You are not allowed to speak when outsiders are around! You are not allowed to talk to others! Xuan Lan is working in the court now. At this time, do you want to kill us now?"
The eldest lady suddenly said sharply.
Unexpectedly, when seeing the eldest lady getting angry, the "middle-aged housekeeper" was actually there and not afraid at all.
"Little sister, what are you afraid of?"
The "middle-aged housekeeper" was immediately shocked when he spoke:
"More than eight years have passed since the incident, and the divine religion was wiped out by the imperial army. Who else would know my former identity? Moreover, Xuan Lan is my nephew, how could my uncle harm me?"
He...don't even think about it, if I hadn't helped you mother and son, how would you be today?"
In the Yang family, everyone thought that the "middle-aged housekeeper" was the eldest lady's confidant from outside. No one had ever known that the eldest lady and the "middle-aged housekeeper" were actually biological siblings.
"I don't care what kind of religious cult or cult you belong to, but I don't want to be involved in it, and I don't want to hear this from your mouth. Eight years ago, I took a huge risk to save you. Can Xuan Lan and I have anything to do with each other?
Today is hard-earned. If you still care about your brother and sister a little bit, don’t harm us. Otherwise, even if I’m a ghost, I won’t let you go!”
Although the eldest lady's expression has calmed down a lot, she is still very angry.
"I know, I know."
When the middle-aged housekeeper saw this, he could only respond with kind words:
"Xuan Lan is so promising, and I, as an uncle, also have a good reputation, so how can I harm him? Don't worry, I have stopped touching those things from back then. After a while, I will find a way to change my identity.
Completely clear your name and come to help you and Xuan Lan in an honest and fair manner."
After hearing this remark, the eldest lady's expression brightened slightly, and she finally accepted this tone.
"Tell me! Why are you suddenly interested in this little beast? To be honest, you can't hide it from me."
The eldest lady's thoughts changed and she suddenly said.
The brother and sister grew up together and stayed together for another eight years. She knew her brother best.
"Hey, little sister, you are still smart. Yes, I am indeed interested in him."
Knowing that he couldn't hide it, the middle-aged housekeeper simply admitted it.
"He's just a teenage beast. I don't have much interest in him yet. However, he actually entered the country so quickly in such a short period of time. This really makes me curious."
The middle-aged housekeeper paused and said:
"I just asked them carefully about their fight. An ordinary move called White Snake Fault on Grass, was actually able to be used so superbly, with skill and ease, both physical and spiritual. This is definitely not something that a fifteen-year-old kid who has no experience in the world can do.
Arrived."
The middle-aged housekeeper paused and said with a smile:
"A little beast has been unknown for eight years, has no one to rely on, and has always stayed in the realm of the third stage of breathing. But overnight, the pheasant flew on the phoenix branch, suddenly gained such a high level of cultivation, and even defeated Yang Xu,
Don’t you find all this strange?”
His expression was determined, as if he had already grasped something.
"What do you mean?"
The eldest lady looked surprised and asked. She vaguely guessed what he was going to say, but she didn't dare to believe it.
"To teach an unknown poor boy to this point in a few months. This is definitely not something ordinary people can do. I bet there must be an extremely powerful master behind him."
The middle-aged housekeeper said confidently.
"What?"
Upon hearing this, the eldest lady's face suddenly changed, and she stood up from her chair in shock.
She always thought that Yang Ji was secretly practicing martial arts behind her back, and never thought that there was a very powerful master behind him.
It doesn't matter how powerful Yang Ji is, but if there is someone behind him...
As long as the eldest lady thinks about a master spying on her secretly and controlling everything, she will feel restless and have a strong fear at the same time.
Who is this person? Why does he want to help Yang Ji? Does he know what happened between him and Yang Ji? If he kills Yang Ji, will he attack himself...
In an instant, many thoughts passed through the eldest lady's face, and her face turned pale with shock.
"How could this happen!"
The eldest lady gritted her teeth and sat back heavily in the sandalwood chair.
"Little sister, please don't be impatient about this matter. Right now, everything is just my guess. Maybe things are not necessarily what I imagined. Maybe, that kid has had some luck recently, has taken some miraculous medicine, or has received
It’s not certain that he will have any adventures. - Moreover, in four months, that little beast will be sixteen years old. In such a short period of time, are you still afraid of rebelling? Wait until he is expelled from the clan, and you will be
With your status and power, are you still afraid that you won’t be able to deal with a half-year-old child?”
The middle-aged housekeeper saw the "eldest lady"'s worries and smiled.
After hearing the last sentence, the eldest lady's expression softened a lot, she nodded and said:
"You're right! As long as the Yang clan is still under my control, I don't believe that kid can escape from my grasp. If things don't work out, I'll call Xuan Lan back, because I'm afraid I won't be able to cure this little beast!"
"It's not necessary to call Xuan Lan back. That kid is preparing for the scientific examination at a critical time, so there's no need to bother him with such a trivial matter. And if we step back ten thousand steps, even if there is a master behind that kid, we may not be able to deal with him.
In a borderland like Pingchuan County, is it possible that some kind of big dragon could emerge? First find a way to contact him, and then it might not be impossible to bring him to our side. If he really doesn't understand current affairs,
——If the powerful dragon doesn’t suppress the local snake, are you really afraid that you won’t be able to deal with him?”
The middle-aged housekeeper smiled sinisterly.
A series of glances flashed in the eldest lady's eyes, but her expression could not be seen. After a moment, she finally nodded: "I'll leave this matter to you. No matter what, you have to find out for me!"
"Don't worry, Qingming will be after February, and it won't be more than April at most. I will investigate this matter clearly for you and handle it properly."
The middle-aged housekeeper looked out the window with an enigmatic smile: "...and I also want to see what secrets this kid has!"
The middle-aged butler left the room without saying the last words.
