Chapter 271: Hands-off shopkeeper, helping each other

Ji Hongluan closed her eyes. She had actually been prepared to give in for free, but she didn't expect that the evil disciple would be so well behaved this time. He didn't take the opportunity to bully her again, but just gave her a kiss and didn't move. She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked secretly, and found that the evil disciple seemed to be groping for something on her body.

After searching for a long time, he finally found it. He took out a dozen storage rings and stuffed them into Ji Hongluan's hands:

"My dear, these are the treasures I got outside. Most of them are cultivation resources that I can't use. You can use them to maintain the daily operation of the sect, or use them to reward outstanding disciples or meritorious elders. It's all fine!"

Ji Hongluan blinked her eyes and said shyly, "What are you doing for me? Just keep it for yourself."

Xu Yang hugged Ji Hongluan, stretched out his hand and said, "Hehe, Brother Ji has given me a lot of dowry, so naturally I have to give you some gifts. I will soon break through to the Mahayana realm, Hongluan, you will soon be a member of my Xu family."

Ji Hongluan pretended to pat Xu Yang's hand, asking him not to move, but he really didn't move and just stayed there, which made her feel awkward. She put away a bunch of storage rings and said in a low voice:

"How come it's so fast? I remember that you just broke through the Void Breaking Realm not long ago. How come you are about to break through the Mahayana Realm now?"

"Wouldn't it be better to hurry up? Does Xiao Hongluan want me to take it slow?"

Xu Yang stared at Ji Hongluan and asked with a smile.

Ji Hongluan felt that Xu Yang was hiding something in his words, and poked his waist angrily, snorting:

"Okay then, let's make a deal. It has to be over in half an hour. Otherwise, I won't cooperate with you!"

"My lady, what nonsense are you talking about? How can it only take half an hour to break through the realm? It usually takes several days. I estimate that it will take a little longer to break through the Mahayana realm. I need to be in seclusion for at least one or two months, and it may take even longer!"

Xu Yang held back his laughter.

Ji Hongluan knew that this evil disciple was teasing her intentionally, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she said:

"I haven't reached the Mahayana realm yet, so how can I know how long it will take to break through?"

Her main feature is her tough talk.

Xu Yang thought Xiao Hongluan looked very cute, so he stretched out his hand and pinched her face, saying:

"Okay, my lady, stop talking nonsense and let's get down to business!"

Ji Hongluan pretended not to understand and said:

"What business? Wasn't that business we were talking about just now? Or are you going to break through to the Mahayana realm now?"

"I can't break through yet, but if you can help me practice, I should be almost there. How is your practice of the technique I gave you before? Let me test it out!"

Xu Yang lowered his head and kissed Ji Hongluan.

Ji Hongluan's face immediately turned red. She stretched out her hand to push Xu Yang's chest, but couldn't move it. She could only mumble:

"That's a magic skill. I haven't practiced it for a long time..."

As she was talking, Ji Hongluan fell silent, and her whole body turned into a puddle of water. Except for her mouth which was still hard, all other parts of her body were soft.

…

After dozens of breaths.

Ji Hongluan's pretty face flushed, she looked at Xu Yang and said:

"Evil disciple, your cultivation has reached a high level. Do you want to become the leader of Qingming Sect?"

Xu Yang pinched her chin and said, "Why? Madam, do you want to be a hands-off boss now?"

"No?"

Ji Hongluan raised her chin and narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Yes, of course, even if my lady wants to be the head of the Ji clan, it's fine."

Xu Yang took a deep breath, looked at Ji Hongluan and said.

Ji Hongluan blinked and said, "I don't want to be the head of the Ji clan. You are a bunch of useless guys who are blindly arrogant. There are so many resources in the clan that even a pig can be trained. Anyway, if you take over this mess from my ancestor in the future, you will suffer. Don't blame me for not reminding you!"

"So my lady, you should be the leader of the Ji clan. It's better for you to come forward than for me to come forward. You know that I'm not lenient when it comes to my actions, and I don't have much patience."

Xu Yang said seriously.

Ji Hongluan's movements paused, as if this was indeed the case. The evil disciples were killed at will, leaving no one alive. If they waited until the ancestor passed away, the group of playboys in the family would definitely not be able to control them. Once they started making trouble and provoked the evil disciples, the consequences would be disastrous.

Although she didn't care about these tribesmen, she couldn't ignore them as they were connected by blood. After hesitating for a moment, she said:

"The Ji clan has never had a woman in charge. The elders of the Ji clan will definitely not agree...Xu Lang, I just hope that you can see my side and go easy on them. No matter how excessive they are, you have to leave some blood for the Ji clan!"

"You're saying no before anything has happened, Hongluan. This is not like your character!"

Xu Yang put his arm around Ji Hongluan's waist and said gently:

"In fact, whether you can become the clan leader or not is not up to your clan elders to decide."

"The elders' words don't count. Do you think your words count?"

Ji Hongluan rolled her eyes at Xu Yang and took a deep breath.

"Of course, your ancestor is my sworn elder brother. According to seniority, I should be the oldest in the Ji family. How dare they disobey me!"

Xu Yang said with a look of pride.

Ji Hongluan couldn't help laughing and said, "Look at the one floating for you, its tail is almost reaching the sky!"

"I don't know if the tail is up to the sky, but my lady, you..."

Xu Yang whispered a few words into Ji Hongluan's ear.

Ji Hongluan's cheeks turned red, and she said angrily, "You just bully me!"

"My lady, this is not bullying. At most, I am asking you to help me practice. When I break through the Mahayana realm, I will have the final say in terms of seniority and strength. Then it will be easy for me to arrange for you to be the patriarch of the Ji clan. So, we are helping each other. You help me, and I help you. Isn't this reasonable?"

Xu Yang said shamelessly.

“…”

Ji Hongluan thought about it and felt that it made sense. After all, Xu Lang had not yet broken through to the Mahayana stage, but he was already able to suppress that group of long-established peerless saints. Once he broke through to the Mahayana stage, there would be basically no rivals in the five regions of the world. By that time, the number of people who could fight Xu Lang back and forth could probably be counted on one hand.

So, she turned around, held Xu Yang's shoulders, lowered her eyebrows, and said in a mosquito-like voice:

"Evil disciple, I will only agree to you this time. This is the last time. Next time, no matter how much you try to trick me, I will not agree to you!"

"Okay, this is the last time. I promise I won't let you help me practice next time!"

Xu Yang lied with his eyes open, then picked up Ji Hongluan, walked to the door of the back hall and kicked it open.

Ji Hongluan reached out and patted Xu Yang, and said angrily: "Be gentle, don't let Xiaohua hear it..."
