The next day.
Led by a maid, Chen Huai came to a spacious and magnificent hall trembling with fear.
“My Lord, he is the outer disciple Chen Huai whom you asked to see. According to your previous instructions, I brought him here as soon as he returned to the sect.”
The maid bowed respectfully to the purple-skirted woman sitting at the head.
Chen Huai also suppressed his fear, knelt on the ground tremblingly, and said in a trembling voice:
“I am Chen Huai, I have met Ji Zhenchuan, no, I don’t know what you want me to do?”
When he spoke, he didn’t even dare to raise his head, for fear of offending the high and mighty Shengzong Zhenchuan and thus die without a burial place.
At this moment, Ji Chan’er was holding a jade book, seemingly flipping through something. Upon hearing this, she looked at Chen Huai expressionlessly and asked calmly:
“Do you know a man named Qi Da?”
Although he lowered his head, Chen Huai still felt a huge pressure coming at him. He was more and more awed in his heart, and replied with sweat dripping down his back:
“The name Qi Da sounds quite familiar…Oh, I remember now. I once captured a casual cultivator named Just call him Qi Da.”
Hearing this, Ji Chan’er raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked in a calm tone:
“Then what?”
Chen Huai was startled, and then quickly replied:
“Later, I didn’t kill that man, but sold him to the mine under the command of the Holy Sect as a hard laborer. Now he should still be mining there.”
After getting the reward for selling hard labor, he took the spirit stones and had a good time outside for a while, and just returned to the sect.
Therefore, he didn’t know the news that the mine had been taken down, and he didn’t know about someone’s many great achievements in the outer sect, otherwise he would definitely not be in this mental state now.
It turns out that what the bastard said before was true!
Ji Chan’er’s expression became strange, and her tone was quite curious:
“How did you catch him? Tell me the whole process from beginning to end.”
Hearing this, Chen Huai dared not hide it and immediately began to recall.
But the strange thing was that the memory was like a mess. No matter how hard he tried, he could only recall the result of the incident, but he could not remember more specific things.
After a lot of thinking, Chen Huai had to give up the memory.
But Ji Zhenchuan had given the order, and he didn’t dare to say nothing. In order to get through, he could only start making up stories:
“Uh… actually the process of the incident is very simple. At that time, I saw a lone cultivator in the wilderness, and I subdued him in no time.”
“That guy was scared and kept begging for mercy, saying that he was just passing by and had no intention of offending the Holy Sect, and requested me not to hurt his life.”
“I saw that he looked honest and had a good physique, and the Red Gold Mine under the Holy Sect was short-handed, so I decided to give him a break and send him to the mine as a hard laborer to better contribute to the Holy Sect…”
Chen Huai talked incessantly about a lot of fabricated plots, and his expression was serious. He also subtly demonstrated his loyalty to the Holy Sect, and his performance on the spot was perfect.
Ji Chan’er’s face was getting worse and worse, and she felt that her intelligence was being insulted.
“Enough!”
Finally, she could no longer bear it and slammed the jade book on the table, making a loud noise.
“Master, calm down!”
The maids waiting on the side immediately fell silent, kneeling on the ground, not even daring to breathe.
Chen Huai was also frightened and trembled all over. He looked up in surprise:
“Zhenchuan, you are…”
“You are lying!”
Ji Chan’er stared at him coldly, her tone full of disgust, “If that guy didn’t have other intentions, how could he be caught by a bastard like you?”
Hearing this, cold sweat instantly flowed down Chen Huai’s forehead, and he explained in panic:
“Ji Zhenchuan is wise, every word I said is true, and I have never lied!”
At this time, admitting to lying is tantamount to seeking death, it is better to go all the way and never give in..
“Okay.”
Ji Chan’er’s eyes were cold and she said sternly, “I’ll give you a chance. You are now in the late stage of foundation building. As long as you can defeat this maid who is also in the late stage of foundation building, I will believe what you say.”
As she said that, she narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, turned her head and told a maid:
“Xiao He, come and try this person’s quality.”
“I obey you.”
The maid named Xiao He bowed respectfully, then jumped to the center of the hall, looking sharply at Chen Huai not far away.
Seeing this, Chen Huai had to bite the bullet and stand up, with a guilty look on his face:
“Please teach me!”
After a while.
Bang!
Accompanied by a muffled sound, Chen Huai fell to the ground in a miserable state, groaning.
Xiao He returned to Ji Chan’er lightly, and asked calmly:
“This thief dared to lie and cheat in front of the master, he deserves death, it is better to let me cut him into pieces on the spot to serve as a warning to others.”
Hearing this, Chen Huai didn’t care about crying out in pain, and quickly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy:
“Ji Zhenchuan, spare my life! I won’t dare to do it again in the future, please forgive me this time!”
I don’t know what she thought of, Ji Chan’er raised her lips with a beautiful arc, and asked with a smile:
“How many spirit stones did you get when you sold Qi Da to the mine last time?”
Why did Ji Zhenchuan ask this? Did she want her to pay tribute to her?
Chen Huai was stunned for a moment, and after making sure that he had not heard wrong, he stammered in reply:
“In reply to Ji Zhenchuan, Qi Da is young and strong, and has the cultivation base of the middle stage of foundation building, so he sold 500 medium-grade spirit stones. I am willing to give all of these spirit stones as a gift, and I only ask that you can let me go this time.”
Ji Chan’er ignored him and asked the maids serving her:
“Among the mines under the Holy Sect, which mine is the most difficult to mine?”
Hearing this incoherent question, Chen Huai instinctively had a bad premonition.
The next moment, an older maid stepped forward and answered:
“My lord, the most difficult mine to mine is the Gengjin Mine. Gengjin is extremely hard, and the golden evil spirit on the veins is more than ten times that of the red gold mine, making it extremely difficult to mine.”
“In the Gengjin Mine operated by the Shengzong, the death rate of hard labor is many times that of other mines.”
“Okay.”
Ji Chan’er nodded slightly, and ordered in a playful tone:
“Send him to the mine now. “He is a laborer in the Gengjin Mine. Tell the steward there that he cannot be allowed to return to the sect until he has dug enough Gengjin worth 5,000 medium-grade spirit stones!” “As for the spirit stones sold, send them directly to Qi Da of Lianxue Peak.” When Chen Huai heard the first sentence, he was stunned and screamed in amazement: “Ji Zhenchuan… This, this is not appropriate, I…” Before he could finish, the Jindan Realm maid sealed all the acupoints in his body and dragged him out of the hall neatly. After sending Chen Huai away, Ji Chan’er’s beautiful eyes flickered. It seems that my previous guess was correct. He was captured on purpose, with the purpose of using the mine as a springboard to enter the Holy Sect. Even if the mine had not been pulled out by the pseudo-Tao, he would have other ways to get rid of his hard labor and enter the Holy Sect as an outer disciple.
And yesterday that bastard asked me about the information of the Demon God Killing Tower Trial, and he obviously planned to participate in this trial.
From what I know about him, he will never do anything without confidence. Since he is participating, he must be confident.
If he passes the trial, he can be promoted to a true disciple immediately.
Thinking about it, Ji Chan’er suddenly thought of this sentence:
“…Qi heard that there is no one to take the position of the Holy Son of the Demon Sect now. If you want to take the position, you have to take the position of the Holy Son of the Demon Sect!”
Could it be that…the ultimate goal of that bastard is really the position of the Holy Son of the Holy Sect? !
At this moment, Ji Chan’er’s eyes flashed with shock.
He dared to think about the position of the Holy Son of the Holy Sect when he was in the Qi Refining Realm, and even said it openly. He is so bold that there is no limit.
But there is still half a year before the Heritage Hall opens, and the opponents currently competing for the position of Holy Son are at least in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. I am only in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment now, and there is no way I can catch up.
Ji Chan’er suddenly felt that she should do something…
