Chapter 221

Faced with Ren Lan's attempt to give up for free, Lin Jichen quickly persuaded her to retreat.

"Don't come, it's useless for anyone to help me, just do your own thing, I'll be fine."

"Really?" Ren Lan didn't quite believe it.

"Even if it's not true, you can only help me for free, silly woman." Lin Jichen said unhappily.

"Okay, I hope you can hold on, I support you mentally, if there is really no other way, just give them the things, so as not to die once and lose experience." Ren Lan advised.

Lin Jichen also had this intention.

If he really couldn't keep this secret skill, he would definitely hand it over as soon as possible.

Compared with the heavenly skills, his life is obviously more important.

If he died once, it would not be as simple as losing some experience.

At this time, Lin Jichen couldn't leave.

After getting this heavenly jade slip, Ji Hongyue looked at him differently, with reluctance, annoyance, and a hint of ill will.

The masters and disciples of other sects also had complicated expressions when they saw Lin Jichen's good luck.

However, these big men have seen the world, and they are all from big sects. How could there be no heavenly treasures in the sect? There are even higher ones.

What's more, players don't have to worry about Lin Jichen's identity, but NPCs must.

For a heavenly secret technique, offending Tianyan Sword Sect, Leng Feiyan's direct disciple, what will be the consequences? Tianyin Temple has already demonstrated it.

Thinking about Leng Feiyan's terrifying cultivation and strength, as well as his extremely protective personality, everyone gave up those bad thoughts.

It's just that they are a little jealous of Lin Jichen's luck. He picked up a heavenly secret technique for nothing. This kid is really lucky.

Now that the birthday banquet is over, the secret techniques have been received.

Everyone said goodbye to Ji Hongyue and left, each returning to their own sect.

Ji Hongyue smiled and saw everyone off.

Just when Lin Jichen was about to leave, he stopped him.

"Young Master Lin, don't be in a hurry to leave, I still want to talk to you."

Ji Hongyue ignored Lin Jichen's resistance, grabbed his arm with one hand, and pulled him back with a smile.

Lin Jichen was panicking.

Damn, this old guy wouldn't want to go back on his word and destroy the body?

If that's the case, then he wouldn't have enough lives even if he had ten.

Ji Hongyue is also a great man in the Yuhua realm, what can he use to resist?

Lin Jichen decisively handed over the jade slip and said with a sad face: "Emperor Ji, I will return this thing to you. I don't want it anymore. Please don't kill me. I won't tell anyone. My greatest strength is that I keep my mouth shut."

Ji Hongyue was a little confused by Lin Jichen's trick, and laughed dumbly after he reacted.

"Hahaha, kid, do you think I, Ji Hongyue, am that kind of despicable villain? Since I have given something away, how can I take it back? Don't worry, I am not that stingy!"

Lin Jichen was relieved a little after hearing this, and smiled awkwardly: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding."

Ji Tongyin and Ji Linglong who followed behind were so happy that their faces turned red.

The queen beside Ji Hongyue also smiled softly with her hands covering her mouth, and was overjoyed.

Lin Jichen was very embarrassed and asked carefully: "Then Emperor Ji kept me, is there something else?"

If there is nothing, he has to run away, and he has no time to stay in this palace.

Ji Hongyue stroked his beard and smiled, "There are two things. First, I invited all the sect masters and elders to the inner hall to discuss. Everyone agreed, except for your Tianyan Sword Sect's attitude, so I am ready to talk to you."

"Emperor Ji, please speak." Lin Jichen felt relieved.

Ji Hongyue said as he walked: "You know about the last time the four states besieged the Demon Cult. I heard that the Demon Cult is brewing a big plan to take revenge on our righteous sects and the court, so I invite all sects to work together."

"Once the traces of the Demon Cult are found, inform each other immediately. If there are sects around that are attacked by the Demon Cult, the nearby sects or our Qianlong court should rush to help as soon as possible to prevent the Demon Cult from succeeding. So I need the opinion of your master, Sect Master Leng. Will she agree?"

Lin Jichen thought it was something else, and immediately said on his own initiative: "Empress Ji can rest assured. Needless to say, all righteous sects will do this. Although my master is in seclusion, I can guarantee that she will agree."

Ji Hongyue nodded: "Then I am relieved, let's talk about the second thing."

"Please ask for your instructions."

Ji Hongyue began to play a riddle, and said with a smile: "Let the queen tell you."

Lin Jichen was stunned and turned to look at the queen.

The Queen smiled gracefully and said, "Young Master Lin, you are the direct disciple of Sect Master Leng. Are you married?"

"No." Lin Jichen shook his head subconsciously.

The Queen smiled even more and got straight to the point.

"Then what do you think of my daughter's childish voice, Young Master Lin? You two are also...I know you. You saved Tongyin before, so you should have an impression of him, right? "

Lin Jichen: "....."

Oh my god!

What does this mean? Are you going to recruit me as a consort?

Ji Tongyin obviously didn't expect this to be true, and her mother had already chosen a candidate for her.

She blushed and said to the queen: "Mother, how can you make such a hasty decision for your daughter?"

Linglong, who was standing next to her, wanted to speak for her sister, but was glared at by the queen and shrank her neck obediently.

The queen smiled apologetically at Lin Jichen and said: "Young Master Lin, wait a moment, I want to talk to my daughter."

After that, without waiting for Lin Jichen to speak, she pulled Ji Tongyin aside to whisper.

The queen said to Ji Tongyin calmly: "Marriage is the parents' order and the matchmaker's words. You are a princess of the Qianlong royal family, so you should understand this truth. You have no choice in this regard. "

"But..."

The queen saw Ji Tongyin's aggrieved look and wanted to cry, her heart softened, and she comforted her softly: "Tongyin, you should understand that the daughters of ordinary people still obey their parents in their marriages, not to mention that you are a princess of the royal family. It is normal to marry or even become a political sacrifice."

Ji Tongyin lowered her head. Obviously, she also knew that what her mother said was right, but it was her first time to encounter it, and it was a little difficult to accept.

The queen continued to persuade: "In fact, many clan leaders and royal families in other states have approached your father for matchmaking, but we didn't agree. What's more, your mother and your father really carefully selected outstanding people for you. "

"Lin Jichen is a disciple of Leng Zongzhu, with a noble status. He is likely to inherit the position of Leng Zongzhu in the future. In terms of future status, you are not as good as him. Besides, Lin Jichen's appearance is impeccable,"

"Plus he once saved you, which proves that there is a fate between you. Mother can see that you have a good impression of Lin Jichen, right?"

"I...I...don't..."

Ji Tongyin stuttered in response, her face was as red as a cherry, and she kept looking at Lin Jichen with guilt.

Lin Jichen's brain short-circuited and his face was full of confusion.

Hey, Master? I have something to tell you. I may become a prince consort...
