Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 994: Chapter 992 Gospel (9) Chapter 994: Chapter 992 Gospel (9) Although it was just a drop in the bucket of bloodshed, Fu Qian was still profoundly impressed by Ji Yicheng, who loved materials.

The transformation of the fat Angel after emerging from its cocoon, was indeed an eye-popping spectacle.

Given his youth and not insignificant abilities, it was understandable that the Ji Family felt pained to lose such a scion.

So, was he now masquerading as a murderer, dressed up and walking into a trap?

“Ji Yicheng?”

Lost in thought, Fu Qian had no feelings of guilt and asked directly.

“Do you know?”

Ji Liushuang was secretly shocked; this man knew too much about the affairs of the Ji Family.

“In a place as unique as the Wasteland, how could scholars not take an interest?”

Fu Qian spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

He couldn’t believe that the Transcendent Demigod Angui would sell Ji Yicheng without a word, and not make a big fuss about searching for him afterward.

Thus, this matter was probably not a top-secret, and speaking about it to intimidate posed no problem.

He subtly emphasized his identity, truly a formidable character!

Growing more cautious, Ji Liushuang nodded subconsciously.

“Exactly, as a matter of fact, Ji Yicheng is whom you just met—”

Thud thud!

Her words were interrupted by a knock on the door.

“Can we go over there now?”

The housekeeper’s urging followed.

“Yes.”

Glancing at Fu Qian and seeing no particular reaction, Ji Liushuang replied directly.

Was this something he couldn’t stand to listen to anymore?

The somewhat urgent urging seemed to reflect the feelings of the people behind it.

…

“Shall I push you?”

Seeing Ji Liushuang still sitting calmly in the wheelchair, he naturally asked.

“That would be very kind of you.”

Fu Qian had offered, and Ji Liushuang was not one to refuse.

The more she observed him, the more terrifying he seemed, but having him close at hand was not a bad thing.

“As long as Teacher Andiel takes care of me, that’s fine; please tell them we’ll be right there.”

With Fu Qian standing behind her, Ji Liushuang waved her hand at the incoming housekeeper, signaling for her to lead the others ahead.

The latter’s face was tightly drawn, her gaze sweeping over the two of them.

“Then, we’ll leave it to Professor Andiel.”

With a slight nod to Fu Qian, the housekeeper decisively led her group away.

…

Squeak!

Although well-maintained, the wheelchair was indeed quite old and made slight noises as it moved.

Fu Qian carefully controlled the direction, following Ji Liushuang’s guidance through the ancient building.

Despite the understated opulence everywhere, a piercing sense of desolation prevailed.

Combining what Ji Liushuang had previously said, her mother had essentially been confined here for years.

“Is it Ji Mingzhe?”

Observing his surroundings, Fu Qian recalled the interrupted conversation.

Ji Liushuang had implied that Ji Yicheng was significantly connected to someone they had just seen.

“No… Ji Xun.”

Surprisingly, Ji Liushuang shook her head.

That Old Master Ji Xun? Wasn’t he a bit old?

Fu Qian was slightly startled.

“A son?”

“A son… perhaps due to the influence of the family bloodline, the Ji Family’s descendants have never been particularly prosperous.”

Ji Liushuang whispered an explanation.

So it was like this, no wonder an “Angel” character like that appeared.

Fu Qian did not usually pay much attention to celebrities’ anecdotes, momentarily expressing wonder.

However, looking at it now, Angel’s Demigod was indeed ruthless; people struggled hard to have children later in life, yet he disposed of them decisively.

Of course, as an instigator and direct murderer, it now seemed even less appropriate for them to be exposed.

“Thank you for your hard work, Professor Andiel.”

The journey wasn’t far, and soon the two reached a door guarded by a person.

As the waiting housekeeper greeted them and saw that Fu Qian showed no intention of handing over Ji Liushuang, she directly helped open the door, while over ten pairs of eyes looked over all at once.

As expected of a top-tier Transcendent force, full of elites!

As he admired, Fu Qian serenely pushed Ji Liushuang inside.

His remark was by no means an exaggeration; the people inside were indeed exceptionally skilled.

Aside from Ji Xun, there was an even older gentleman whose strength was clearly superior, almost possessing the oppressive aura of Old Master Logan.

And the rest were primarily of the Middle Tier.

Wasn’t this lineup slightly too strong for simply holding a prisoner in soft confinement?

In his puzzlement, Fu Qian noticed that Ji Liushuang was also quite surprised by the appearance of the second old gentleman.

A non-permanent resident?

“Professor Andiel, please have a seat.”

While pondering, Ji Xun was the first to speak, his greeting neither warm nor cold.

In fact, from the eyes of the others, one could see that this unexpected guest was under close scrutiny.

Unfortunately, as an eyewitness to the attack and Ji Liushuang’s savior, he had pushed Ji Liushuang to attend the meeting, and they clearly had no reason to refuse.

“Alright.”

Fu Qian, completely indifferent to the atmosphere, pushed the stand-in, Ji Liushuang, aside, sat down contentedly, and casually put the lantern down.

From the moment he entered, the newcomer old gentleman’s gaze had been wavering between the lantern and the mask.

“Some people are already handling the aftermath, and The Night Watchman has also been informed; we will be diligently pursuing the perpetrator.”

Seeing that Fu Qian was still sitting boldly behind Ji Liushuang, visibly backing her, Ji Xun’s expression was stone cold, and without giving any introduction to Fu Qian, he simply briefed the current situation.

After all, it was impossible not to react when a family member was attacked and injured.

“However, considering there are few traces left, what we need to do now is to determine the attacker’s motive.”

“Thank you, everyone, for your trouble.”

Ji Liushuang nodded, her expression calm.

“So, why did you go out on your own today and end up at that place?”

Sure enough, the next moment Ji Xun directly inquired.

“I went to the Gospel Group to investigate the previous incident.”

Ji Liushuang responded very straightforwardly.

“Just as I thought… I have told you more than once, why linger over this?”

Ji Mingzhe couldn’t help but interrupt immediately.

“I have some doubts about their credibility, I think there might be omissions in the report.”

Despite the questioning and her poor condition, Ji Liushuang showed no intention of backing down.

“Do you only doubt them? You weren’t even there—”

“Enough.”

Ji Xun interrupted Ji Mingzhe.

“Even if you went to the Gospel Group, the place where you were attacked was clearly off the path; where else did you go? Be honest, no concealments.”

The next moment he looked at Ji Liushuang, his tone stern.

“The residence of one of the agents; I thought a private meeting might be better, so I tried to track him down.”

And the latter seemed very persuadable, confessing instantly.

You really are reckless!

Ji Liushuang’s honesty seemed to ignite everyone’s anger; Ji Xun’s expression turned even colder for a moment.

“So, did you find anything?”

“Yes, right here.”

Ji Liushuang pointed to her shattered shoulder.
