Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 210: Chapter 143: My Golden Core Master?

He also came to his senses.

The communication talisman in his hand was real, and the three jars of wine in front of him were also real... I’m not dreaming.

He thought of something else and quickly turned to look at Isle Master Qinghe behind him.

”Martial Uncle...”

He had just spoken when...

Isle Master Qinghe stroked his beard and laughed, interrupting him, ”You’re still calling me Martial Uncle, huh.”

Ji Yuan had a sudden insight, holding the golden communication talisman and cupped his hands towards him, ”Greetings, Senior Brother Qinghe.”

”Haha.”

Isle Master Qinghe recalled the voice transmission Hua Yaoyue gave him as she left, the more he thought about it, the better his mood became... Truly, Master Wang You is generous.

”Alright, since you have such an ability, and have caught the eye of Junior Martial Uncle Wang You, you should quickly put away these things like the wine.”

Ji Yuan looked back at the three distinctively shaped jars of wine, gave an ”Mm” and also quickly put them away.

Inside these three jars, any one of them could probably buy my life... Ji Yuan couldn’t help but ask, ”Senior Brother, these three jars of wine are so precious, is Martial... Ancestor just going to leave them with me? Doesn’t she worry?”

Foundation Establishment is a Martial Uncle, Golden Core is a Martial Ancestor.

Now calling Hua Yaoyue a Martial Ancestor isn’t wrong.

”Junior Martial Uncle Wang You has always acted as she pleases, not following the rules. Besides, if they’re left with you, do you dare to embezzle them?” Isle Master Qinghe said with a smile.

”I wouldn’t dare, I will protect them with my life!”

Ji Yuan said seriously.

”That’s it then.”

Isle Master Qinghe spoke with some sentiment, ”A Golden Core taking a disciple... Among our current Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Water Dragon Sect, there aren’t many who can catch the eye of a Golden Core and be taken as a disciple, not to mention you who haven’t even established your foundation yet having such an opportunity...”

”Work hard, establish your foundation as soon as possible, that’s more important than anything.”

”Mm!”

Ji Yuan nodded vigorously, that’s for sure, once I establish my foundation, not only will my strength increase but I’ll also be able to become a disciple of a Golden Core, what will I have to fear then?

”Please, Senior Brother Qinghe, keep this matter a secret for me.”

Ji Yuan once again cupped his hands slightly towards him.

Keeping secrets is always most important.

”Don’t worry, helping you is also helping me.”

After Isle Master Qinghe said this, he waved his hand, ”Alright, if there’s nothing else, go back and make your wine properly.”

Ji Yuan nodded and then headed towards the door, but as he walked, he suddenly thought of something, turned back and asked, ”Senior Brother, about the wine I just submitted... does it still count for contribution points?”

per jar, Ji Yuan submitted 12 jars all at once.

”...”

In the end, he didn’t get the contribution points.

Isle Master Qinghe said one sentence that left Ji Yuan speechless.

He said, ”Do you really feel comfortable taking advantage of your master like that?”

With that said, if I still cling to those contribution points, I’d seem too immature, but Ji Yuan didn’t understand why Isle Master Qinghe wasn’t willing to give away those points.

After leaving Thousand Mechanism Island, Ji Yuan did not rush back to Mist Island to ”make wine”.

He still needed to inquire about the Yang family’s matters.

But to his surprise, just as he returned home at the entrance of Chulong Island, he saw a woman squatting not far from his house... Du Wanyi.

Seeing Ji Yuan return, she immediately stood up, looking at Ji Yuan with a complex expression.

Moved, excited, stunned, surprised... and a hint of unfamiliarity.

”Come, come inside to talk.”

Du Wanyi stepped forward and suggested.

”Okay.”

Ji Yuan nodded.

The two entered the house, and after Ji Yuan closed the door, he asked, ”Second Sister, how long have you been waiting here?”

”Not long, just got here.”

”...”

”Really, I’m not stupid. If I had really heard news of the Yang father and son dying, I would come looking for you. Wouldn’t that just cause you more trouble?”

Du Wanyi truly wasn’t stupid.

”What? The Yang father and son are dead?”

Ji Yuan was very surprised to hear this and looked at Du Wanyi in front of him, then he said joyfully, ”Then Second Sister, your troubles are solved, this is fantastic!”

”I was worried about you before too.”

Du Wanyi just watched Ji Yuan and didn’t speak.

She just watched him with a look of seeing through him.

”No, Second Sister, what’s wrong? Aren’t you happy that something happened to the Yang family? Or is there other trouble?”

The smile on Ji Yuan’s face gradually disappeared.

”Fourth Brother, do you know why I know it was you who did it?” Du Wanyi finally spoke, but her voice was somewhat low.

Without waiting for Ji Yuan to deny ”it wasn’t him,” Du Wanyi took a deep breath and spoke again:

”Because aside from you, no one else would be willing to help me.”

”The Yang family committed many evils and had more than a few enemies. It could have been another enemy who did it,” Ji Yuan said softly.

Du Wanyi suddenly smiled at this, a very happy smile.

She wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes, nodded firmly.

”That’s definitely it, it must have been another enemy of the Yang family!”

Ji Yuan also smiled, spreading his hands.

”Right, see, how could I have possibly killed a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator? I’m just a mere Qi Cultivation Cultivator.”

”But according to the information I’ve heard, they say that Yang Shunan was killed by a demon beast.”

”Oh? Second Sister, tell me more.”

Ji Yuan said this as he returned to the house and used spiritual qi to brew a pot of tea.

Du Wanyi sat down, thought back over the sequence of events, and then said, ”Currently, there are many rumors outside, some say it was a flying demon beast from the Red Cloud Mountain Range, others say it was a burrowing demon beast, but none of these hold water because the demon beast only killed the Yang father and son, leaving everyone else unharmed. But it is certain that they were killed by a demon beast.”
