Chapter 2726 What a Jerk

The elder's slender fingers were placed on the strings of the zither, and they plucked them gently, making a 'clang' sound.

Xiao Yi was indeed careless this time. He did not realize at first how powerful this zither could be. The sound of the zither burst out with a huge momentum.

The air wave pressed towards Xiao Yi, and the whole room was moving without wind. Xiao Yi's clothes were blown up. He could no longer remain calm at this time.

He hurriedly circulated the Dao Qi. The Dao Qi of the Purple Profound Realm gathered between Xiao Yi's hands and quickly formed a barrier to block Xiao Yi.

"The circulation of Dao Qi is very skilled, but this ability cannot block this move."

Ji Jiangyue stood aside. She used 70% of her strength to play the sound of the zither. How much ability Xiao Yi had could be known by testing here.

A wave of air formed a huge pressure and rushed towards Xiao Yi. The barrier that had just condensed by the Dao Qi collided with each other.

"What a strong aura, is this the Great Elder of Dawn?"

Xiao Yi held on tightly, but his body retreated half a step. This half step was just the beginning. The Great Elder's move was not taken by Qinglong Baihu and the others.

The purple barrier blocked Xiao Yi's front, and the Dao Qi was flowing, forming a series of complex patterns. If he met an opponent, Zixu would certainly help him.

But this time someone wanted to test Xiao Yi's depth. He would not intervene in such matters, and it would also make Xiao Yi realize his shortcomings.

The momentum of Qin Yin was not weak, but increased a few points. The condensed Dao Qi barrier was getting dimmer and dimmer, and it was about to be broken.

"Not good!"

Xiao Yi widened his eyes, but there was no way at this time. He hurriedly circulated the Dao Qi to protect the meridians of his body.

The purple barrier did not hold up in the end, and soon dissipated. The Qin Yin carried the last pressure and hit Xiao Yi's body. Xiao Yi quickly retreated backwards.

After retreating four or five steps, he stopped with support. The energy in his meridians was running wildly and he couldn't control it.

"It's so strong, worthy of being the elder of Dawn..."

Xiao Yi realized the gap between him and the elder. A woman didn't look dangerous, but her strength was so strong.

The elder only used 70% of his strength to let Xiao Yi know what it means that there are always people who are better than you. If a person has no opponent for a long time, it will have a great impact on his growth.

A bloody taste surged up his throat. Xiao Yi swallowed it forcefully. After a while, he was able to stand up.

Ji Jiangyue was quite satisfied with Xiao Yi's performance at this moment. After all, Xiao Yi was still very young.

"Yes, Qinglong and the others couldn't even handle 50% of my strength, and I had to stop in the end. You were able to handle 70%, which is already very impressive."

"Ahem... If I were very powerful, I wouldn't be beaten into such a mess by your move."

Xiao Yi coughed and finally managed to stabilize his breath. At this moment, Ji Jiangyue came over, stretched out a hand, and patted Xiao Yi on the shoulder.

The blood that had been suppressed before could no longer be controlled at this moment. Xiao Yi opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood. After seeing this, Ji Jiangyue clapped his hands and said.

"You think it's good to bite your teeth, right? If you don't spray out this blood, it will accumulate in your body and you won't be able to adjust your breath for several days."

Ji Jiangyue's move was not to bully Xiao Yi, but to heal Xiao Yi. After the blood accumulated in his body was sprayed out, Xiao Yi felt much more relaxed.

"Thank you..."

"From your words, I heard a kind of dissatisfaction. Xiao Yi, you are only a few years old now. I have to be in my seventies to cultivate this level of cultivation."

Xiao Yi raised his head and looked at the elder. These words were to teach him. Although this time, the elder's move made Xiao Yi see what the gap was.

But the elder's real purpose was also for Xiao Yi. Only by recognizing the gap can he have the motivation to move forward.

"You are only in your twenties, and you have achieved what you have now. This time I want to remind you that even if I use all my strength, I can't last more than three moves in the hands of Xiao Huaili."

"What?"

"Now you should also realize that it is not just you who are really on the road of cultivation. Your father and several of your uncles are the same as us, and even the Xiao family, your real grandfather."

Ji Jiangyue said, Xiao Yi rubbed his shoulders and nodded at this time. Xiao Yi already knew what she said.

"I know this, but I didn't expect Xiao Huaili to be so strong."

"As an ancient family, the Xiao family has existed in China for hundreds of years. Without some means, how could it have survived for so many years?"

"It seems that if I return to the Xiao family now, it would be like seeking death."

Xiao Yi sighed. Although he didn't succeed in taking even one move, Xiao Yi's expression was not discouraged at this moment.

Ji Jiangyue nodded with satisfaction. Xiao Yi understood this point, and it was worth her painstaking efforts here. She continued.

"There is a saying that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. Thirty years in the east and thirty years in the west. I believe that with your growth rate, you will definitely do it."

"Thank you... Great Elder, you are thoughtful here."

"Okay, don't call me the Great Elder. This title does sound a bit awkward. My name is Ji Jiangyue."

When Xiao Yi heard these three names, he found that she was indeed very elegant, as the name indicated. This could be seen from the layout of the room. Xiao Yi followed Ji Jiangyue's meaning and said.

"Then when no one is around, I will call you Aunt Ji, right?"

"Your little mouth is really sweet, much better than your father. After taking this pill, I guess the Third Elder is still waiting for you outside."

There was medicine for healing in Ji Jiangyue's room. She took a pill out of the bottle and gave it to Xiao Yi. Xiao Yi swallowed it and took a few sips from the teacup.

Although he lost to the Great Elder this time, Xiao Yi didn't feel disappointed at all. He wiped the corner of his mouth and said.

"Then I'll go first. I think my father should have liked you at that time."

"Stop talking nonsense here. You are not him. How can you know what he thinks in his heart?"

"Guess... and you haven't really asked my father. If it were me, since I like my father, why don't I fight for it."

Xiao Yi just finished speaking, a volume of poetry written by Ji Jiangyue was thrown over, almost hitting Xiao Yi's forehead.

Ji Jiangyue was most afraid of others mentioning such words. She had been suppressing it in her heart. After talking to Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi actually teased her here.

"Get out! I won't force you to do anything. If your father chose me, there would be no bastard like you. Besides, it's not your turn to say such things!"
