PEI Ling’s heart seemed to be in a state of shock as memories of Ji Wu flooded into his mind!
He had already been in this pengyao temple for at least a day!
In his memory, he clearly remembered that it was also raining heavily at that time, with thunder and lightning, and Ji Wu came to Peng Yan Temple to take shelter from the rain ... No!
There was more than one person!
PEI Ling could not remember the others. He did not know if they were the people in front of him, but there was no doubt that he was extremely familiar with this scene.
It didn’t seem to be the first time he had seen it!
Apart from that, Ji Wu’s saber still had a trace of his saber Qi.
This was exactly the same as what he remembered!
Because he was too shocked, he didn’t hear a single word that Ji youzhong said.
“Your ... Your honor?” You Yizhong’s slightly suspicious and vigilant voice sounded in his ears.
PEI Ling suddenly regained his senses and immediately said, ” “I’m Zheng Jingshan, I’m not the owner of this place. I’m also here to take shelter from the rain.”
As he spoke, he opened the palace door to show that he did not have any hostility.
Seeing this, the Ji family’s expressions relaxed. Ji youzhong cupped his hands at PEI Ling and exchanged a few words before he escorted his young lady in.
The front hall of the Taoist temple was quite large, but Ji youzhong and his men were very cautious and chose a corner to stay.
Not long after, they managed to start a fire, and the drenched people gathered around the fire to keep warm.
During this time, the maidservant seemed to be quite lively. She wanted to chat a little but was strictly stopped by you Zizhong.
As a result, only the crackling sound of the burning firewood could be heard in the hall, and no one spoke.
In order to lower their guard, PEI Ling pretended to watch the rain and stood outside for a while, holding his breath and listening to the movements inside.
Seeing that they were silent, he slowly walked in.
He sat down cross-legged in the opposite corner of the Ji family and observed in secret.
Later, he found that Ji Wu didn’t seem to know him at all.
Other than the time when this mortal was at the door, as the captain of the guards, he instinctively maintained his guard against PEI Ling. After entering the palace, he began to take care of a series of trivial matters. Even when PEI Ling walked in from the outside, he only glanced at him to confirm that he had no intention of causing trouble before continuing to urge his subordinates to watch the fire.
“He has my saber Qi on him, so I can think of him?” PEI Ling thought to himself. Suddenly, he had an idea. Someone else was here!
Not long after, with a series of curses, there was a series of footsteps from outside the door, and three people entered in a single file.
The three of them were Qi cultivation stage rogue cultivators. The one walking in front was wearing a yellow robe with a Jade hairpin and stood there. The one in the middle was a teenager who was about 17 or 18 years old. His face was pale and his eyes were not righteous. The last one was a brown robed old man with red hair. He looked around and was quite sinister.
After seeing the appearance of these three freelance martial artists, PEI Ling frowned.
That subtle sense of familiarity once again welled up in his heart ...
As he was deep in thought, he seemed to hear the three wandering cultivators discussing how they had entered the Taoist temple by mistake. After that, they looked at the Ji family. When they saw the eldest lady of the Ji family, they chuckled and decided to stay.
Seeing this, Ji Wu’s expression turned serious!
The three newcomers were very strong!
He was so strong that the other party didn’t even need to make a move and he, the most powerful guard of the Ji family, felt his heart palpitate!
This made Ji Wu feel uncomfortable.
And what worried him the most was that he noticed the interest in the other party’s eyes when he saw his eldest miss ...
A moment later, Ji Wu suddenly turned his head and whispered a few words to you Jizhong. After that, he stood up and walked towards PEI Ling.
“What’s the matter?” PEI Ling noticed and immediately asked.
Ji Wu walked up to him, glanced at the three wandering cultivators, and then said in a low voice,”This young master, it’s dark and raining. It’s a little lonely here alone. Do you want to come over to our side to warm yourself by the fire? When we’re outside, we can take care of each other.”
PEI Ling was puzzled, be it in his previous memories or what he was seeing now.
Everyone in the Ji family was mortal, and they were also escorting the delicate eldest young lady. Thus, everyone was very cautious. Even after entering the hall for such a long time, they did not dare to let their subordinates speak casually. It could be seen that they were very careful.
At this moment, Ji Wu’s words and actions clearly showed that he was wary of those three people.
But why did she trust a stranger like him so much?
To put it bluntly, wasn’t he afraid that he would suddenly explode and hold their young miss hostage after he got close?
After pondering for a moment, PEI Ling decided to ask directly and said in a low voice, ” “We don’t know each other, why are you so assured of me?”
Ji Wu was stunned for a second and then said,”I can see that young master doesn’t seem to be an evil person, so I came to invite you. If young master is not willing, then forget it. ”
“Sure.” PEI Ling was currently thinking about how to start with a martial arts Strategy and would naturally not let go of this opportunity. He immediately agreed upon hearing this.
Therefore, he stood up and followed Ji Wu to the bonfire where the Ji family was.
When the other members of the Ji family saw PEI Ling, they immediately became alert. A few of the more nervous guards even subconsciously reached for the swords by their sides, their threats evident in their words.
“Young master, my name is Ji Wu. I am the captain of the guards of the Ji family, a big family in Lanke city.” At this moment, Ji Wu said, ” that man is the Ji family’s manager, Ji youzhong. &Quot;
He then introduced his guards one by one, and finally said, ” we are here to escort the eldest miss, Ji Shuang ‘er, back to the Ji family in Lanke city. &Quot;
“The lady beside the eldest miss is the maidservant, Xiao Xia.”
PEI Ling nodded as he listened, but after carefully recalling in his mind, he did not have any impression of these people.
He was very confused. Ji Wu seemed to trust him a lot, but the others were all looking at him warily.
In that case, why did he let Ji Wu invite him?
As he thought of this, PEI Ling and Ji Wu chatted for a while before he started to cultivate.
It was obviously not his first day in the pengyan temple. Due to his severe memory loss, PEI Ling could not remember when he had broken through to the late-stage of the foundation building realm.
However, in this situation, he would naturally raise his cultivation as much as he could.
However, there were outsiders present at the moment, so there was no telling what kind of accident would happen.
As a precaution, PEI Ling did not use the system’s management. Instead, he silently circulated his cultivation technique and tempered his true essence.
Time passed by slowly, and soon, the sky darkened.
In the hall, apart from the bonfire that the Ji family had raised, the faces of the three itinerant cultivators were all immersed in the darkness. Their shadows could not be seen clearly, but they had a different kind of ghostly aura.
This made the Ji family feel uneasy.
At this moment, the three wandering cultivators finished their cultivation. They suddenly stood up and walked directly to the Ji family.
