"Now you should understand, why do I think the dragon family is related to the blood lotus root?" Ji Chaoyun asked.
"Yeah." Feng Qi replied softly, but his reaction was a little slow, as if his thoughts had not yet been separated from the previous information. Leaning on the back of the bamboo couch, he stared at the person sitting beside him with mixed feelings.
The more this person understands the past, the more uncomfortable he feels.
It's for the rival in love that I can never match, and it's also for... the prince of the dragon family who will never come back.
However, His Royal Highness Feng Er has never been a person who hurts the spring and sorrow for the autumn. This kind of emotion only lingers in his heart for a moment, and then he forgets about it.
Feng Qi cleared his throat and said, "Do you think that the connection between Lingyuanhai and the devil is now broken?"
"I didn't think so." Ji Chaoyun said, "No matter how many immortals turned to the demons in the war three hundred years ago, and the demons have been completely defeated by Feng Xiao, I don't think the immortals will continue. Working hard for the devil. But the appearance of the blood lotus root just proves this."
Feng Qi thought for a moment, then asked again, "You said earlier that the man in black you met in the mortal world wanted to rob you of your golden phoenix feather?"
"right."
"Why?"
"I don't know." Ji Chaoyun shook his head, "Phoenix golden feather is something Feng Xiao left for me to protect myself, but since a hundred years ago, its power has gradually started to fade, and now there is only a little spiritual power left. I really don't understand, what is the purpose of them grabbing the Phoenix Golden Ling? Is it to make me and Feng Xiao never see each other again?"
"No, I don't think it's that simple." Feng Qi paused and asked, "How many people know about the existence of Phoenix Jinling?"
"Jun Jue." Ji Chaoyun said, "Three hundred years ago, he tried to assassinate me, but was injured by the phoenix golden ling. He is the only one who knows that I have this in my hands."
"He has no reason to rob the phoenix golden feather." Feng Qi said, "You and Jun Jue are in a battle for succession. It's understandable that he wanted to kill you before. But from the moment God's Domain was blocked, you are destined to not be able to retrieve the Dragon Ball for a thousand years. In a thousand years, Jun Jue has been on the throne of the Dragon King for a long time, why does he want to hunt you down? Not to mention that you are now a half-demon, and it is even more difficult to influence his status."
Ji Chaoyun heard the deep meaning of his words: "Do you think it's not Jun Jue who has done this to me?"
Feng Qi said leisurely: "Your bastard third brother must have something to do with this matter, otherwise he wouldn't send Jun Ruzhuo here. And I don't believe that there are outsiders who can actually poison Lingyuanhai's wound medicine, and also Let Lingyuanhai's waiter be the ghost. But I always feel that he is not the mastermind."
"Why do you say that?"
"Intuition." Feng Qi said, "And I still have a feeling that this matter may be related to the original demon seal."
"..."
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"It's all right." Ji Chaoyun lowered his eyes and said softly, "It just suddenly occurred to me that he used to trust his intuition very much. It's like he clearly found out that there was something wrong with the medicine I gave him, and he still didn't say anything because he didn't think I wanted to. Harm him, there are other people behind the scenes."
Feng Qi suddenly laughed softly.
"Why are you laughing?"
"Nothing, I just feel like it shouldn't have anything to do with intuition."
"What's the meaning?"
Feng Qi raised his hand and took a fallen leaf from Ji Chaoyun's head, his eyes soft: "How can that stupid and innocent little dragon be a sinister who secretly poisoned. If it were me, I wouldn't believe it was you. What he did. He didn't say it, it was to protect you."
Protect him, don't let him know that there may be demons in Lingyuan Sea, and don't let him be disappointed with his own people.
Therefore, he would rather secretly pour out the decoction than tell him the truth.
The ancient god with a detached status and status has been using this gentle method to carefully protect the innocent and kind boy of the year.
Ji Chaoyun tilted his head, and his eyes suddenly became a little sour: "So... that's it."
"..."
Feng Qi looked at Ji Chaoyun silently, wishing to go back a moment and gag his mouth.
What are you doing to help that bastard
Is he cheap? ?
Feng Qi sighed and said with some headache: "In any case, things are still unclear now. You have to be careful in the academy and try not to act alone."
But Ji Chaoyun didn't answer right away, his expression seemed a little hesitant.
"What do you want to say?"
"I think avoiding may not be the best way." Ji Chaoyun said softly, "I came to the academy from the mortal world, and I can't avoid their pursuit. The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, so I am a bit passive. With you present, I'm afraid I really want to kill innocent people in the arena."
If that's the case, no matter whether he has secret feelings or not, not to mention the academy, even Baizhangyu will not let him go.
Feng Qi nodded: "I understand what you mean. I will continue to investigate this line. You go back to study and practice obediently. You are not allowed to interfere or do anything secretly."
"But-"
"What's so good about it." Feng Qi interrupted, "With your current cultivation level and body, do you still want to lead him out in person?"
Ji Chaoyun whispered: "It's not impossible..."
"Of course not, what if something happens?" Feng Qi categorically refused, "Anyway, just stay with me and let me know what you're doing secretly, and be careful I'll take care of you."
Ji Chaoyun said "oh" and didn't argue with him anymore.
He stood up from the bamboo couch, and Feng Qi asked sensitively, "Where are you going?"
"Reading." Ji Chaoyun looked back at him, "I've missed my homework for several days."
"Oh, go."
Ji Chaoyun turned around and was about to leave, but Feng Qi suddenly stopped him again: "Wait."
Feng Qi stared at Ji Chaoyun, hesitated for a while, and finally asked, "In your heart, is there really a big gap between me and Feng Xiao?"
Ji Chaoyun showed a confused and inexplicable look, as if he didn't understand why he asked that.
In Feng Qi's eyes, this look was basically saying that he had humiliated himself.
They are ancient gods who saved the entire fairyland by themselves.
As for him, although the talent cultivation base is extremely high, he still has no chance of winning compared to the gods. The strength is incomparable, the merit is incomparable, except for this face, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is useless.
Oh, I almost forgot, his face looks a lot like Feng Xiao.
The more Feng Qi thought about it, the more he felt that he was very courageous to ask this question, and his tone was weak: "Forget it, if you don't want to answer—"
"It's not that much worse."
Feng Qi was stunned for a moment, only to hear Ji Chaoyun softly say: "I really didn't like you very much at first, your personality is domineering and arrogant, and you are no different from the immortal scoundrels I have seen along the way. ... But I only now realize that that It's just my own prejudice."
"Mortals are also divided into good and bad, and so are immortals." Ji Chaoyun said, "I admitted that after the incident three hundred years ago, I was very disappointed and even disgusted with Xianyu. But this does not mean that there are no good people in Xianyu. "
Ji Chaoyun looked into Feng Qi's eyes and said sincerely, "It's me who misunderstood you, whether it's you or Jiang Cheng."
"..."
Feng Qi's smile froze on his face.
Wait, why compare him to Jiang Cheng
Feeling in Ji Chaoyun's heart, he and Jiang Cheng are on the same level
His Royal Highness Feng Er suddenly felt very humiliated, and even wanted to fight Jiang Cheng.
It's a pity that Ji Chaoyun couldn't read His Highness Feng Er's psychological activities. After he finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the bedroom, leaving only Feng Qi who was angry with him.
Tianshu Xianjun banned Ji Chaoyun from class for three days and gave them three days to find out the whole story. In the early morning of the third day, news reached Wenqu Peak.
The Lingyuan Hai attendant died in the Inspector's Hall.
"The Immortal Doctor has come to confirm that Wen Yi died by destroying his spiritual veins. And the two disciples who took care of Wen Yi last night also confirmed that no one approached this dark room last night."
In the dark room, Jiang Cheng said with a gloomy expression, "That is to say, he committed suicide out of fear of sin."
The Inspector's Hall is responsible for supervising everything in the academy, and its powers and responsibilities are higher than the Precepts Hall, which is responsible for the punishment and sentencing of the disciples. Therefore, Wen Yi has been temporarily detained in the confinement room of the Inspector's Hall until the truth of the matter is revealed.
The confinement room is not large, and there are no windows on all sides, so the situation cannot be seen from the outside, and the only entrance and exit is guarded by disciples day and night.
The young disciple with a delicate face was now lying on his back on the ground in the center of the confinement room, his seven orifices were bleeding, his eyes were wide open, and he had long since lost his breath.
Feng Qi pressed his eyebrows, trying his best to suppress his anger: "Fearing crime to commit suicide? Does he look a little bit afraid of crime? Jiang Cheng, how did you promise me before, this is the result of your investigation?!"
Jiang Cheng's expression was surprisingly cold, but unexpectedly he did not refute.
"Feng Qi, calm down." Ji Chaoyun pulled his sleeve from behind, then turned his head and asked Jiang Cheng, "How about a few days ago? Has anyone touched him?"
Jiang Cheng: "There are only a few disciples of the Inspectorate Hall. I have already sent someone to investigate."
Ji Chaoyun sighed: "He confessed his crime, and now he committed suicide in fear of the crime, I'm afraid..."
He didn't finish his words, but everyone understood what he meant.
In the past few days, apart from the interrogation, Jiang Cheng searched for evidence everywhere, but found nothing. Now that Wen Yi is dead, it will be difficult for them to investigate further.
It was silent for a while outside the confinement room. At this moment, a disciple hurried over: "Tianshu Xianzun summoned Ji Chaoyun and went to the Hall of Inquiry."
"good."
Ji Chaoyun was not surprised. As soon as Wen Yi's accident happened, the Inspector's Hall had already reported to Immortal Venerable. And now that the three-day time limit has come, even if these things don't happen, Tianshu Xianjun will find him.
Feng Qi suddenly reached out and grabbed him: "I'll accompany you."
Ji Chaoyun did not answer, nor did he refuse.
Only the disciple said tremblingly: "But Xianzun said that as long as Junior Brother Ji is alone..."
Feng Qi glanced at him coldly and silently stopped what he said after that.
His Royal Highness Feng Er did whatever he wanted in the academy, never just talking.
After a while, Feng Qi and Ji Chaoyun came to the Palace of Asking Hearts.
In the Wenxin Hall, Immortal Monarch Tianshu sat on the outer throne, Immortal Monarch Yaoguang stood beside him. Seeing Feng Qi followed into the door, Tianshu's eyelids couldn't help but jump, as if he wanted to say something, but he finally held back.
Tianshu said: "I know everything. Since Wen Yi has already suffered the consequences, Ji Chaoyun's suspicions can be cleared, so let's end this matter."
"How can we end this?" Feng Qi frowned and said, "This matter is full of doubts, there must be someone behind Wen Yi, how can we—"
"Doubtful, it can't be used as evidence." Tianshu interrupted slowly, "Hongmeng Academy is a place for cultivation after all, so you shouldn't spend too much time on these things. I gave you three days, and it's enough for you to find out these things. What's more, now that the clues have been broken, do you want Ji Chaoyun to continue to suspend classes and wait for your investigation?"
"I-"
Feng Qi was speechless by what he said, and Immortal Lord Yaoguang said roundly: "Tianshu-jun doesn't mean that you can't investigate, but you should focus on your cultivation now. As for investigation, where is your turn to do it?"
He paused and said again: "I have already asked Tianshu-Jun for instructions. This matter will be handed over to me in the future. You don't need to worry about it anymore. If there are any clues, I will tell you in time."
Feng Qi said coldly, "People will die in your inspector's hall. How can I trust you?"
Yaoguang spread his hands and said inexplicably, "Feng Qi, you don't doubt me, do you? Why would I do such a thing? Don't forget, if I hadn't gone to the Dukao Hall to argue with Kaiyang-Jun according to reason, Chaoyun would not be able to do it now. I left Hongmeng Mountain early."
Feng Qi narrowed his eyes and said lightly, "This disciple doesn't mean that."
The atmosphere in the Asking Heart Hall suddenly became solemn. After a while, Tianshu asked, "Ji Chaoyun, what do you think?"
Ji Chaoyun said in a low voice, "The disciple just wants to stay in the academy for a long time to cultivate, and the rest is up to the arrangements of the Immortal Venerables."
"That's good." Tianshu said, "I will let the Duke Hall clarify the truth for you today, and you can go back to the classroom tomorrow."
"Thank you Xianzun."
"There is one more thing..." Tianshu said, "You have an accident in the arena. According to the rules of the examination hall, the winner should be Jin Ting. However, Jin Ting refused to admit it. He brought it up. , I hope to compare it with you again and make a new conclusion. What do you think?"
Ji Chaoyun was stunned, and a smile appeared on his lips: "Xie Xianzun, the disciple is willing."
Tianshu explained a few more words, and then let Ji Chaoyun and Yaoguang leave first, leaving Feng Qi alone. Feng Qi repeatedly told Ji Chaoyun to wait for him outside the door and not to run around, so he let him out.
He didn't take Tianshu, who was still sitting in the hall, in his eyes.
When the temple door was closed again, Tianshu said quietly: "When did your relationship with Ji Chaoyun become so good?"
Feng Qi asked back: "Didn't my uncle ask me to take care of him more, shouldn't I?"
"But he is a dragon after all..."
"It's just a demon dragon, we don't have grievances with all dragons." Feng Qi deliberately said, "What's more, isn't it Lingyuanhai who has old grievances with Fengminggu?"
There was a flash of weirdness in Tianshu's eyes, and then he quickly hid.
He took a sip of the tea in front of him, but listened to Feng Qi continue: "And even if he is from Lingyuanhai, I will be happy to take care of him and protect him forever."
"Cough cough!" Tianshu almost choked to death by the tea, and asked in disbelief, "You... what did you say?"
"Am I not clear enough?" Feng Qi took a half step forward, with a smile on his lips, and said softly, "I just love him, I want to be with him forever, and protect him for the rest of my life."
The expression on Tianshu's face was blank for a moment, and it took him a while to come back to his senses: "You...you and him...wait, he also agreed?"
Feng Qi obviously didn't expect Tianshu to ask such a question, and there was a hint of guilt in his eyes, and then he made a natural appearance: "That's natural."
"..." Tianshu was silent, and he hadn't spoken for a long time.
Feng Qihu asked, "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
"No, it's fine." Tianshu breathed a sigh of relief, his voice was rough, and he sounded hesitant, "Yes... Of course it's good. From now on, you should treat him well, be more tolerant and accommodating, and stop bullying. People, do you know?"
Now it was Feng Qi's turn to be puzzled: "I know, I know."
"It's good to know, let's go."
Feng Qi walked away in confusion. In the Hall of Inquiries, only Tianshu sat quietly in the same place, the confused and strange expression on his face had not disappeared for a long time.
The author has something to say:
Feng Qi: I like him, he likes me, we are together. 【Proud face
Uncle: This guy actually greens himself and can play.
