Chapter 215 Ji Changrong
Ji Yanzhi looked at him.
Bai Qingjue said, "That's why I contacted you."
Before Ji Yanzhi could speak, Bai Qingjue brought over a puppet and showed it to him: "This is a puppet I made for myself. What do you think?"
Ji Yanzhi: "I don't think it's very good."
Bai Qingjue pretended not to hear and continued, "I'm going to find you. I've even thought of a name based on your family's names: Tian Jueqing."
Ji Yanzhi sincerely suggested, "You should go see an alchemist to get your head checked."
Bai Qingjue chuckled: "Just kidding. It's obvious you wouldn't use the imperial family's surname. What surname do you use?"
Ji Yanzhi didn't want to talk to him.
Bai Qingjue wasn't in a hurry: "Even if you don't tell me, I'll find out when I get there. I've already thought of a name; I'll just add your surname later."
"Your name is read backwards?"
Qingjue, ruthless, that's for sure.
Bai Qingjue looked at him: "Simple, no need to think."
Ji Yanzhi had nothing to say to this, and instead asked, "Aren't you afraid that the descendants of the gods will notice something is wrong when you come out, and then discover Rong Shu through you?"
Bai Qingjue said, "The opening of the Sea God Kingdom is a secret realm from the Age of Gods. It is the only secret realm from the Age of Gods that has opened since the disappearance of the gods. Their attention is currently focused on the secret realm, and they will not pay attention to me."
"If it weren't for the fact that I can't leave the Land of Divine Disappearance at will, they would have dragged me there without hesitation." Bai Qingjue said with a sneer, "After all, they themselves know that it would be more useful for me to go than for them to go. Unfortunately, I can't go."
If we can go there, why do we need puppets?
Seeing that Ji Yanzhi remained silent, Bai Qingjue said, "Besides, if I go, I can also help you deal with Huo Xin."
“The secret realm of the Age of Gods has opened, and Huo Xin will definitely go there.” Bai Qingjue looked at Ji Yanzhi: “You want a puppet, saying you’re going to investigate Huo Xin, but when you actually face Huo Xin, the limitations on you will crush you. I’m more suitable.”
“Although there will be limitations, they are not as strong as yours. Moreover, the Divine Kingdom of the Sea will not suppress me,” Bai Qingjue said. “But you are different.”
"Even in the divine kingdom at sea, you will still be suppressed."
"So you're going to work for me for free?" Ji Yanzhi looked at Bai Qingjue: "You're so kind?"
"Yes, I'll work for you for free." Bai Qingjue asked, "Now can you tell me your last name?"
"The surname is Ji."
"Alright." Bai Qingjue stood up: "Wait for me in the Divine Kingdom at Sea."
After saying that, Bai Qingjue cut off the contact.
Looking at the now calm water mirror, Ji Yanzhi thought about how, in Rong Shu's current memories, Bai Qingjue was his father, and the resentment he felt towards Bai Qingjue because of his broken leg disappeared.
...
Ji Yanzhi slept for an hour. When he woke up, he told Ling Yi about the people coming to his house.
Ling Yi asked, "Is it for the Sea Kingdom?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Yanzhi's expression remained unusually calm.
Yes.
Since the divine descendants will come because of the divine kingdom at sea, the heavenly family will surely send people as well.
“No,” Ji Yanzhi said. “He heard I was injured and came to pick me up.”
Upon hearing this, Ling Yi raised an eyebrow: "You're leaving?"
Ji Yanzhi met Ling Yi's eyes and said calmly, "He's picking me up, I'm not leaving."
"Haha." Ling Yi couldn't help but laugh: "If you're not leaving, what is he supposed to pick up, the air?"
Ji Yanzhi smiled and said, "Yes."
Seeing that Ji Yanzhi truly had no intention of leaving, Ling Yi said no more, and instead asked, "When will you arrive?"
"Soon." Ji Yanzhi calculated for a moment: "Tonight, perhaps."
"Understood." Ling Yi said, "I told them not to panic if anyone appears on the ship."
"Hmm." Ji Yanzhi nodded, pondering matters concerning the imperial family.
Apart from the head of the Tian family and those who take care of him, no one else in the Tian family has ever seen his face. Those around him will not come on this trip to the Divine Kingdom at Sea, but the head of the Tian family will definitely come.
If we don't meet, that's fine; but if we do meet... it doesn't matter either.
The head of the Tian family only cares about the interests of the Tian family, and he knows what to do for the sake of the Tian family's interests.
...
As darkness fell, the jade bells rang, reminding the others on board that they had boarded.
Realizing that the visitors were Ji Yanzhi's family members, everyone came outside.
Bai Qingjue and the others waited outside. When they saw Bai Jiu come out with the others, their eyes immediately fell on Bai Jiu.
Baijiu noticed the gaze and looked over.
Their eyes met. Bai Jiu's eyes were blank and lifeless, revealing nothing, while Bai Qingjue looked into his eyes, her own eyes filled with heartache.
But he quickly looked away and asked indifferently, as if he were talking to a stranger, "I came to see my brother, and he told me he was here."
Before Bai Jiu could answer, Ye Qingshuang said first, "Ji Yanzhi has injured his leg and will be here soon."
“I know.” Bai Qingjue introduced herself: “I am Ji Yanzhi’s younger brother, Ji Changrong.”
Just as Bai Qingjue was introducing himself, Ling Yi pushed Ji Yanzhi out. Upon hearing Bai Qingjue's self-introduction, Ji Yanzhi glanced at him.
It wasn't that Bai Qingjue was surprised that he called himself his younger brother, but rather that he didn't use the name 'Ji Jueqing'.
Ji Changrong, Changrong.
Ji Yanzhi called out, "Changrong."
When Bai Qingjue saw Ji Yanzhi appear, she quickly stepped forward and called out, "Brother."
If Bai Qingjue is to come using the identity of Ji Yan's family, then she needs to choose the right identity. The identity of the younger brother is easy to use. As for why she didn't choose the identity of the elder brother...
The puppet incident had already displeased Tianyan. If he were to choose his elder brother to take advantage of Tianyan again, Tianyan would simply say that he didn't know him.
It's safer to stick with the younger brother, and since Tianyan is older than him, it's fine for him to call Tianyan "elder brother".
"You must be tired from the journey." Ji Yanzhi looked at him and said, "But we're almost at the Sea Kingdom. There's no time to rest. Hang in there a little longer."
Bai Qingjue: "..."
"Brother, I'm not tired, I don't need to rest."
“Okay.” Ji Yanzhi looked at Ling Yi: “It’s windy outside, you guys go inside, I’ll talk to him for a while.”
Bai Qingjue looked at Ling Yi, and Ling Yi was also looking at him. Their eyes met, and Bai Qingjue felt as if he had been seen through.
"Okay." Ling Yi withdrew his gaze and led the others back.
After everyone else left, Bai Qingjue stepped forward and pushed the wheelchair to a more distant spot: "Is she the reason you came here?"
"Yes," Ji Yanzhi admitted.
Bai Qingjue looked at Tian Yan, and even though she wasn't usually gossipy, she couldn't help but ask, "Why?"
How could Tianyan, who is far away in Tianzhou, be involved with a woman from Yunzhou?
Ji Yanzhi looked at him: "They're quite curious about you too, so why don't I give you a proper introduction?"
"No," Bai Qingjue surrendered, "I won't ask anymore."
"Tianyan, thank you." Bai Qingjue leaned against the ship's railing and said softly, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have seen him so soon."
"I'm relieved that he's doing well."
Ji Yanzhi said, "Then you should thank Ling Yi and the others, not me."
Finally, he added, "The people of the Northern Underworld Empire also took good care of him."
