At this point, Master Yunshan’s tone paused slightly before he continued:
"In the near future, I fear there may be a catastrophe involving demon beasts."
Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyuan’s expression tightened slightly, and a hint of heaviness rose in his heart.
Because from what he saw before him, the situation Master Yunshan described was highly likely.
At that ti, it would not just be a matter concerning one or two sects.
It might affect a small half of the Southern Wilderness Realm, and possibly even most of it.
It seems it’s ti to return once, and then inquire about more specific details from the Demonstration Sect.
Thinking this, Ji Haoyuan no longer felt the need to stay longer.
He cupped his hands towards Master Yunshan, said a word of thanks, and then planned to take his leave.
Seeing this, Master Yunshan couldn’t help but try to persuade him to stay:
"Nanhua Dao You, why not stay and rest at my Nanshan Immortal City for a while, so I can fulfill so duties as the host."
Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyuan shook his head.
"Thank you, Dao You Yunshan, for your kind offer.
But at the mont, I am burdened with urgent matters and will refrain from disturbing you.
When I have ti in the future, I will definitely visit your esteed sect."
After saying that, Ji Haoyuan truly did not linger further.
His figure turned into a streak of light, disappearing instantly before Master Yunshan.
"Alas..."
Seeing this, Master Yunshan couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.
The current situation is unclear.
He also hoped to recruit more allies for his sect.
Unfortunately... unfortunately...
Ji Haoyuan was unaware of Master Yunshan’s sigh.
At this mont, he had already traversed the borders of several sects.
What he saw along the way confird that the situation was indeed not optimistic.
Almost every distance revealed traces of battles.
Especially in areas closer to the Demon Beast Mountain Range.
The marks were even more evident.
Fortunately,
with his current speed, it took him only a few days to return to the area of Heaven-Piercing Valley.
Divine thought extended outward.
Ji Haoyuan imdiately saw the Ji Family Territory, now more than ten tis larger than before.
Simultaneously, several large-scale marketplaces had been established around it.
Marketplaces teed with a bustling flow of people.
Apparently, during his absence, the Ji Family had developed quite well.
With a flash of his figure,
Ji Haoyuan appeared imdiately in the core council hall of the Ji family.
At that mont.
Inside this council hall.
Sat quite a few people.
Among them were Old Ancestor Ji Bochang, Elder Ji Yunshan, and Ji Qingfei, along with other Ji Family Foundation Establishnt cultivators.
In addition to them, there were characters like Liu Hongyu from the Liu Jia, Feng Wanqing from the Feng Jia, and Qiu Zeyuan from the Qiu Jia.
Clearly,
they had brought a large portion of their family’s strength to settle in Heaven-Piercing Valley.
However,
apart from these familiar people, Ji Haoyuan also noticed so unfamiliar faces.
These individuals were all at the Foundation Establishnt level.
With Ji Haoyuan’s perception and experience, he didn’t need to ask; he had already determined the identity of these people.
They should be the honored guest elders that the Ji family recruited over the years.
After all, with Ji Haoyuan as a Golden Core cultivator and connections with the Crimson Sunset Sect, attracting so Foundation Establishnt loose cultivators was not too difficult.
However,
these were not what Ji Haoyuan focused on the most.
What caught Ji Haoyuan’s attention was a beautiful woman in a green dress beside Ji Qingfei.
Their gestures showed closeness.
Clearly, there was sothing special between them.
"Haoyuan!"
"Uncle!"
"True Man!"
...
Finally, Ji Bochang and the others present noticed the sudden appearance of Ji Haoyuan.
For a mont, everyone was shocked.
Especially the Ji Family’s honored guest elders present, who instantly appeared sowhat restrained, looking at Ji Haoyuan with eyes full of respect.
Even though they knew before joining the Ji family that it had beco a true Golden Core family.
But seeing the Golden Core True Man of the Ji family in person at this mont still shook them deeply.
Once everyone present had greeted Ji Haoyuan, he turned his gaze to Old Ancestor Ji Bochang and smiled:
"Uncle, I just heard you seed to be discussing the issue of demon beasts, tell more specifically, what is the current situation here?"
Since Ji Haoyuan’s advancent to Golden Core, Ji Bochang insisted that Ji Haoyuan not call him Old Ancestor anymore.
Helplessly, Ji Haoyuan had to change his address, calling Ji Bochang Uncle according to their genealogy.
Now, upon hearing Ji Haoyuan’s inquiry, Ji Bochang and everyone present couldn’t help but reveal a hint of solemnity on their faces.
You could hear Ji Bochang said, "The situation isn’t very good, especially in recent tis, the number of demon beasts appearing outside Heaven-Piercing Valley has noticeably increased.
Among them, there are even second-tier, and even high second-tier demon beasts."
At this point, Ji Bochang’s tone paused slightly before he continued:
"Fortunately, we have so trump cards left by Haoyuan.
So far, the situation here in Heaven-Piercing Valley is still within a certain control range."
"So for now, no third-tier great demon has appeared, right?"
Ji Haoyuan asked.
Ji Bochang nodded.
"For now, indeed none have appeared."
Subsequently, Ji Haoyuan inquired about so more issues.
When it was almost finished, the honored guest elders present, along with Liu Hongyu and the others, tactfully took their leave.
When only the Ji family mbers were left present, Ji Haoyuan then turned his gaze to Ji Qingfei and the beautiful woman in the green dress beside him, smiling:
"Qingfei, what’s going on? Aren’t you going to introduce to the person beside you?"
Seeing Ji Haoyuan inquire about him, the eyes of the beautiful woman in green dress involuntarily revealed a hint of anxiety.
Fortunately, Ji Qingfei beside her gently grasped her soft hand and then looked at Ji Haoyuan, answering respectfully:
"Uncle, this is my current Dao companion, Ye Shuling.
Shuling, this is my Uncle, hurry and pay your respects to him."
"Shuling sees Uncle!"
Ye Shuling imdiately gathered her courage, approached with full respect, and bowed towards Ji Haoyuan.
Seeing this, Ji Haoyuan couldn’t help but smile and nod.
He hadn’t expected that upon returning, Ji Qingfei had already found a Dao companion.
Observing her deanor, she truly seed to be a woman with a good character.
With the discerning eye of a Golden Core cultivator like Ji Haoyuan, any disguise or concealnt couldn’t escape his scrutiny.
Moreover, since Ji Bochang and Ji Yunshan had already accepted her presence.
It seed likely that there was no issue with her.
Thinking this, Ji Haoyuan retrieved two items from his belongings.
