Chapter 943 Can the Engagement Be Cancelled?
"Xiao Yi, you shouldn't compete with Mo Lang in the matter of alchemy."
Ji Yue's tone was serious. In front of Xiao Wan, she didn't bother about Xiao Yi just saying that he was her fiancé.
What she couldn't understand was why Xiao Yi's girlfriend was so calm from beginning to end?
"Why, do you not trust me, or do you not have confidence in yourself?"
Xiao Yi said.
"This……"
Ji Yue paused. Even if Xiao Yi really had a talent for alchemy, how could he be able to defeat Mo Lang in such a short period of time? It was simply a fantasy.
"Come on, don't think too much about it. Let's think about the Donghuang Bell first. I have a feeling that this broken bell will move tonight."
Xiao Yi changed the subject.
Ji Yue blinked her beautiful eyes and said nothing more for a while.
"I hope that in the end, it won't be just you and me, hehe."
Xiao Yi was half-joking.
Ji Yue was stunned again. She understood what Xiao Yi meant. He probably didn't expect that they would end up in a tit-for-tat confrontation because of the Donghuang Bell.
So, what about herself?
In her heart, some of her thoughts had already wavered, and she was even more unwilling to have a conflict over the Donghuang Bell than Xiao Yi. And this was not because of the latter's unfathomable strength...
"Let's go, Master Ji. We'll talk about alchemy later."
Xiao Yi said no more and left with everyone from the Xiao family.
Ji Yue stood where she was. If it were in the past, she would have been dismissive and would not have taken Xiao Yi seriously, even though this guy was indeed very powerful.
But now, deep in her heart, she had some expectations...
"Brother Xiaoyi, are you...?"
Xiao Wan moved closer to Xiao Yi and lowered her voice.
"Nonsense!"
Xiao Yi interrupted and spoke righteously.
"You know what I'm going to say, and you deny me?"
Xiao Wan pouted.
"cough……"
Xiao Yi combed Xiao Wan's hair to hide his embarrassment, and the latter did not avoid it.
Ji Yue who was standing behind him saw this scene and was even more confused. What was going on between these two people?
Ji Lingchun's expression changed, but he couldn't suppress his joy.
What he considered was not only the matter of Xiao Yi refining the elixir, but also the opportunities that it might bring to the Ji family and the entire Medicine God Valley in the future!
Ji Yue naturally understood his thoughts, but she felt a little uncertain.
"Third Elder, Xiao Yi has a girlfriend, and I also have... a marriage certificate!"
Ji Yue spoke slowly.
Ji Lingchun was stunned. He knew the whole thing from beginning to end.
"Brother, what sect does the young lady's fiancé belong to?"
Ji Feng asked in a low voice.
"Not to mention the Third Elder, even I, my father, never told him."
Ji Yue spoke, appearing very calm.
"I wonder if it's possible to...break off the engagement..."
Ji Feng thought about it and couldn't help but speak.
Ji Lingchun quickly gave Ji Feng a look, signaling him to shut up.
Ji Yue acted as if she didn't hear anything, but something moved in her heart. Not to mention that she couldn't retreat, even if she retreated, what did it have to do with Xiao Yi?
The group quickly returned to their residence and it was midnight.
A ring sounded and Ji Yue looked at her phone. It was a call from her father Ji Mingyuan.
"Father."
Ji Yue answered the call.
"Anything going on tonight?"
Ji Mingyuan asked.
"not yet."
"Well...I've basically heard about some of the things going on over there."
Ji Mingyuan Road.
Ji Yue nodded, not surprised.
"What I want to talk about is not that Xiao Yi wants to learn alchemy from you, but about the upcoming Donghuang Bell."
There was no tone in Ji Mingyuan's words.
"You say."
"Yueyue, the reason I let you go out this time is not because of the Donghuang Bell, but mainly because you can gain some experience.
Of course, I also want you to try your luck. If we really don’t have a chance to get the artifact, you must not be stubborn and make sure you are safe.”
"I see……"
Ji Yue's heart moved and his tone changed slightly.
"Father, how are you doing?"
"Haha, now that I'm out, do you miss home?"
Ji Mingyuan smiled.
"I'm fine, I'm just a little worried about you."
"Don't worry, father. I will do as you say."
"Well, I have to remind you that if Xiao Yi really has that opportunity, you and the Third Elder might as well provide some assistance."
Ji Yue was a little surprised when he heard this. Was he trying to use this opportunity to make friends with Xiao Yi?
"I understand, Father."
A few seconds later, Ji Yue responded.
"Father……"
"What's wrong."
"I……"
"Do you want to ask about your marriage certificate?"
"Ah."
"It's not that I don't want to tell you, but the marriage certificate is always in your grandfather's hands, and I don't know the other party's identity."
Ji Yue sighed inwardly and stopped nagging him.
After hanging up the phone, she took a deep breath and didn't want to think about it anymore.
On the other side, Xiao Yi and his group had returned to town.
"I think... Ji Yue is a very good girl."
Xiao Wantang spoke slowly.
"You've also seen that she should have a fiancé. I'm just repaying her for saving Wan'er."
Xiao Yi explained.
"Why, you think you can hide it from others, but you can also hide it from me?"
Xiao Wantang chuckled.
"That's right, I think Sister Ji has you in her heart, don't use me as a cover."
Xiao Wan came closer.
"You little heartless bastard, you know..."
Xiao Yi was not angry.
"Hey...it's not like you don't know that your brother has a fiancée."
"That doesn't make a difference, does it?"
Xiao Wan was indifferent.
Xiao Yi:......
Makes sense!!
"Third Ancestor, what do you think?"
Xiao Wan looked at Xiao Chengen.
Xiao Chengen was startled, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I think what Wan'er said... makes sense."
The corner of Xiao Yi's mouth twitched. My goodness, this doesn't sound like something an elder would say.
This is because the other party has a fiancé, so what? If not, do I have to go and propose marriage now?
As soon as Xiao Yi entered the inn, Lele came up to him with a happy face.
"elder brother."
Lele jogged and nearly fell down.
"Lele."
Xiao Yi picked her up, it seemed like the first time he saw Lele so happy. Could it be that Yuan Wenbin came back?
"Brother, this is for you."
Lele handed over a string of beads.
"what is this?"
Xiao Yi held it in his hand, completely confused.
"This is... this is what my father gave me. I'm giving it to you now."
Lele's tone is childish.
"It...it will, it will keep you safe."
"Haha, brother won't be in danger. Since dad gave it to you, you must keep it well. Dad will be unhappy if he doesn't see it when he comes back."
Xiao Yi returned the beads to Lele.
"No... no, this..."
Lele didn't know what to say.
"Mr. Xiao, just keep it. Lele will be very happy. If it really doesn't work, I will return it to Lele when you come back safely."
Zou Hongxia stepped forward without explaining anything.
She knew very well that the note asked Lele to give away the beads, and it was obvious that he had some concerns.
Over the past few hours, she felt more at ease, but also more nervous. As for her husband, she also had more guesses...
"This……"
Xiao Yi was a little hesitant.
"Brother, I...I will also go with it to protect you."
Lele looks like a little adult.
"Okay, then I thank Lele. With this bead, my brother will never get hurt."
Xiao Yi said no more and put the beads on his wrist, but he didn't notice anything unusual.
Seeing this, Lele laughed out loud.
boom!
At this moment, a huge bell sounded from the sky, resounding throughout the world, as if it was going to overturn the entire ancient town...
