Longevity: From Being Pushed By The Witch

Under Zhao Chengji's command, this group of guards went on a rampage like Japanese invaders in a village, smashing everything in their path without hesitation.

However...

Just as they were about to start causing havoc, a fierce and powerful pressure crushed down on them!

These guards, whose cultivation was only at the Gold Core level, immediately groaned and stiffened in place when faced with this terrifying pressure.

"If I can't have it, I'll destroy it. Your young master is really domineering!"

"Who?"

Zhao Chengji shouted coldly and turned around abruptly.

At the entrance, there appeared a young man wearing a flowing robe in a deep blue color, but it was unclear when he had arrived.

He had a slender figure and a handsome face, especially his eyes that resembled deep and starry skies. Even with just a simple gaze, there was an overwhelming sense of sharpness.

"Mr. Ji!"

Yun Qianshan quickly stepped forward and slightly bowed to Ji Boying.

Ji Boying nodded and shifted his gaze onto Zhao Chengji, saying indifferently,

"Go back and tell your master that this shop caught my attention first!"

"If he wants it, he can wait behind. Only when I no longer want it will it be his turn!"

"You!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Chengji immediately wanted to say something harsh, but when he met Ji Boying's sharp and icy gaze, he was instantly intimidated. The harsh words that had already formed reflexively were forcefully swallowed back.

"Are you still not leaving?"

Ji Boying said indifferently.

Gritting his teeth, Zhao Chengji had no choice but to lead his guards and leave the shop in a dejected manner...

Wu, who had been watching the scene unfold, couldn't help but become interested in Ji Boying.

This young man's cultivation was only at the Gold Core stage, but the aura he displayed made even Wu, who was at the later stage of Nascent Soul, involuntarily lower his head and dare not meet his gaze.

Hmm...

And that pressure from earlier seemed to contain a bit of... sword intent?

Is he a sword cultivator?

Tsk tsk, with just the Gold Core stage, he possesses such terrifying sword intent. He must be a genius from some major sect. I wonder how he compares to the person behind Zhao Chengji.

Interesting, truly interesting.

With this thought in mind, Wu took the initiative to approach and introduced himself,

"I am Wu Yuan, the chief officer of the City Lord's Mansion, responsible for land mobilization. May I know how to address you, sir?"

Among the renowned geniuses of the major sects on Mingzhu Island, although Wu hadn't personally met all of them, he had heard of them.

This young man appeared to be quite young, and although his cultivation was somewhat low, only at the Gold Core stage, his mastery of the sword path was not low. It seemed that he was the direct disciple of an elder from a sect specializing in sword cultivation!

That's what Wu Yuan thought.

As for the core members of the Wan Dao Trading Company...

The minimum requirement for core members was to be at the Nascent Soul stage, that was the rule.

Unless they were extremely exceptional members of the Wan Dao Pavilion.

Although this young man before him was strong, his sword cultivation was only at the Fourth Stage. Compared to those geniuses of the Wan Dao Pavilion, he was far behind.

So...

He definitely wasn't a member of the Wan Dao Trading Company.

"Ji Boying."

Ji Boying didn't hide his identity and directly stated his name.

As for the relationship as a core member of the Wan Dao Trading Company, he didn't mention it. One reason was that he felt this chief officer was a bit strange, especially the attitude of the middle-aged cultivator with a goatee, Yun Qianshan, during their confrontation. Ji Boying couldn't quite figure out what he wanted to do.

Furthermore...

Based on the arrogant appearance of the goatee cultivator during his confrontation with Yun Qianshan, it seemed that the young master behind him was quite impressive?

If that was the case, revealing his status as a member of the trading company might not be effective.

After all, the major sects that could settle in Zhongzhou were not simple. They might give face to the trading company, but it was only superficial.

On the other hand, upon hearing Ji Boying's name, Wu Yuan's face couldn't help but show a hint of confusion.

He recalled it several times in his mind and realized that among the talented individuals he knew, not to mention someone with the extremely difficult-to-pronounce name Ji Boying, there wasn't even a single person with the surname Ji...

Could he have guessed wrong?

After hesitating for a moment, Supervisor Wu decided to probe further, just in case this name was made up on the spot.

"Master Ji, do you know the background of the young master behind Steward Zhao?"

"Steward Zhao?"

"The one who was just driven out by you."

Supervisor Wu hinted.

Ji Boying glanced at Supervisor Wu, wondering what he was up to. Why was it becoming more and more difficult to understand?

If he had initially stood on Yun Qianshan's side, it would make sense for him to reveal this information to me now.

But based on his previous attitude, it seemed like he was not helping either side.

What's going on? Is he now telling me that he's ready to take a side?

Or was he on Zhao's side from the beginning, intentionally trying to undermine me?

Ji Boying quickly brainstormed.

Then he slightly bowed to Supervisor Wu and smiled, saying, "Please enlighten me, Supervisor Wu!"

"The Huangji Sect!"

Supervisor Wu lightly stroked his beard and chuckled, "The young master behind Steward Zhao is none other than the core disciple of the Huangji Sect's inner sect, and also the personally transmitted elder of the Huangji Sect!"

It sounded impressive.

But... I have no idea what kind of power the Huangji Sect is.

However, in order to show off and avoid being looked down upon, Ji Boying pretended to be indifferent and said, "I see."

"Thank you, Supervisor Wu!"

With that, he did not continue the topic but looked at Yun Qianshan beside him and instructed, "Everything remains the same."

"If they come looking for trouble again, do not engage in direct conflict with them. Just inform me."

"Yes!"

After giving the instructions, Ji Boying bowed slightly to Supervisor Wu, bid farewell, and walked straight out of the shop.

Supervisor Wu watched his figure and felt a little confused for a moment.

Is that it?

This reaction seems too indifferent, doesn't it?

Is he pretending, or... does he not consider the personally transmitted elder of the Huangji Sect worth mentioning?

Thinking of this, Supervisor Wu became uneasy. He originally wanted to see Ji Boying's attitude and roughly infer his identity.

But unexpectedly, this young man doesn't seem to care at all after hearing the three words "Huangji Sect"!

Thinking of this, Supervisor Wu quickly looked at Yun Qianshan beside him and urgently asked, "Which power does your young master belong to?!"

Yun Qianshan just smiled and did not answer.

A sect's prodigy?

What is that in front of Mr. Ji?

He is the first on the Huiyue Ranking!

On the other side, Ji Boying, who had already returned to the courtyard, directly contacted Su Xiao to ask for help in finding out about the Huangji Sect's power.

He didn't know if Su Xiao was busy or something, but Ji waited for a long time and didn't receive a reply.

"Forget it, it's not necessary to know."

"The reason why I have so many concerns is simply because I'm afraid that I won't be in the right and that the business will be affected because of my wrongdoing."

"These so-called righteous cultivators, although they claim to be virtuous, they are actually just as bad. They always emphasize the importance of being right. Even if they are wrong and the other party is right, they will unite and attack, and then hypocritically shout... for justice!"

"In this regard, they are not as unrestrained as demonic cultivators, who at least pursue the four words 'unrestrained and unconstrained'."

"Although I will kill you at the slightest disagreement, at least I will let you know that you died because you disagreed with me."

"I have reasons and justifications!"

As his thoughts flowed, Ji Boying began to prepare to study talisman techniques and try to break through the constraints on his own.

But it was at this moment that Su Xiao, who had been waiting for half a day, suddenly replied.
