The base camp of the Ji family and the Shen family is in Xuantian City, which is one of the twelve major cities of the Chihuang Immortal Dynasty, ranked eleventh, and is the only super city that is not controlled by the four major families of Chihuang.
Ji Boda and Shen Qingqing separated after entering the city. Before leaving, Ji Boda turned Yin Zhengan, who had been refined into a wick, into ashes in front of Shen Qingqing, leaving him no way to be resurrected.
This time it was not Meng Chen who did it, but Ji Boda who refined it himself.
Shen Qingqing looked indifferent as she watched Yin Zhengan's soul being obliterated, as if she was looking at an insignificant person.
Meng Chen has been staring at her! He clearly saw that after he and Ji Boda left, Shen Qingqing turned and looked at the carriage with strong hatred in her eyes.
Meng Chen was too lazy to care about these things. He also planned to leave. He originally just wanted to enter the pass to escape the pursuit. Now he has basically escaped the pursuit. Wanting to find him in the huge Red Phoenix Immortal Dynasty is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Ji Boda, I'm leaving." Meng Chen said. Ji Boda was stunned, looking disappointed.
"Meng Chen, now that we are at the Ji family's territory, can't you stay a few more days? Let me show my hospitality as a good host."
Meng Chen's eyes were dim: "You should know my identity. It's not a good thing to be around you. Shen Qingqing must hate you very much now and has been staring at you! Once she finds out, she will definitely attack you and kill you?"
Ji Boda looked gloomy: "Brother Meng Chen, if it weren't for you, I would have died long ago, and you helped me so much, how can I not repay you! As for Shen Qingqing, if she is honest, I don't mind taking her in as a dog, but if she has any thoughts that she shouldn't have, there is no need for the Shen family to exist!"
There was a flash of murderous intent in Ji Boda's eyes. After being taught a lesson by Meng Chen's fists, his methods and character had changed greatly.
Meng Chen frowned: "If the Ji family wants to destroy the Shen family, it will have to pay a high price, right? Besides, the Wang family is standing behind them!"
"Ah! That's true... But I can definitely kill Shen Qingqing. After all, there is more than one direct descendant of the Shen family, not to mention that she is a woman."
Meng Chen nodded helplessly. The reason why Shen Qingqing had such a high status in the Shen family was because she was engaged to Ji Boda, then because of her status as the eldest daughter of the legitimate family, and finally because of her talent for cultivation.
It is extremely rare to be able to reach the peak of the Nascent Soul stage at this age, but such aptitude cannot be regarded as a prodigy. It is only to the Ji family and the Shen family that he is a genius. In fact, this is just the threshold to see a true prodigy.
Meng Chen followed Ji Boda to the Ji family. Ji Boda's parents both worked in the capital of the Red Phoenix Immortal Dynasty. Family affairs were handled by Ji Boda's second uncle Ji Bachu. He had already learned about Ji Boda's transformation from his third brother Ji Batian's message, and excitedly greeted him at the door.
He greeted Meng Chen and then asked about Ji Boda's well-being and the affairs of Ji Boda and Shen Qingqing. Because of Ji Boda's servility, the entire Ji family had lived in humiliation over the years, but fortunately all this has disappeared.
Ji Boda roughly repeated what he had said, and Ji Bachu patted Ji Boda's shoulder with satisfaction, looking very happy.
As for Meng Chen, he told Ji Boda that he wanted to keep a low profile and remain invisible, so there were very few topics about him, and his identity was just a good friend that Ji Boda met on the road.
After the family dinner, Ji Boda sneaked to the room where Meng Chen was staying.
Meng Chen was leaning on the bed to rest. When he saw Ji Boda sneaking in, he couldn't help but frown.
"What are you doing? This is your house, and you're sneaking around!"
Ji Boda hurriedly said: "Brother Meng Chen..." Meng Chen's face changed slightly. This guy was so polite when he spoke. He probably wanted to ask a favor of him!
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't be so shy." Meng Chen said unhappily.
Ji Boda sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and slowly said, "There will be a banquet tomorrow, and the younger generations of the major families in Xuantian City should be invited."
"So what?" Meng Chen was puzzled.
Ji Boda said awkwardly: "Based on my reputation back then, they must have looked down on me, and might even humiliate me in public. I just wanted to establish my authority."
Meng Chen was getting more and more confused: "If you want to establish your authority, just kill someone! If that doesn't work, grab Shen Qingqing and slap her in the face! What's the point of you coming to me?"
Ji Boda sighed helplessly, "Brother, to be honest, I am the best among the younger generation of the Ji family. At the same age, no one can be stronger than me. That is, my father, second uncle and third uncle are all very powerful, and they are in their prime. But the banquet only invites young people under 500 years old, so they can't go. If I go alone, if something goes wrong, I will definitely not be able to beat them, so I have to ask for your help."
Meng Chen was speechless when he heard this. How could he actually say that he was a young man under 500 years old? However, based on the average lifespan of cultivators, it was not surprising to say that he was a young man.
"Okay, since I'm free anyway, I might as well go take a look." Meng Chen agreed.
The next day, at night, Meng Chen and Ji Boda had arrived at the banquet venue, Taihua Tower.
The Taihua Tower is three thousand feet high and has one hundred and twenty floors, reaching straight into the sky. Faint heavenly sounds echo among the clouds.
Ji Boda brought Meng Chen into Taihua Tower, and immediately a beautiful maid came to lead the way and took the two to a small platform.
Meng Chen was surprised. He had to admit that the dynasty system was prone to corruption. They even arranged a small platform in the restaurant to serve as an elevator. Thinking back to the days when he went to the domain to collect materials to build the platform, it really opened his eyes.
The two stepped onto the platform, the teleportation array opened, a flash of light appeared, and the next moment they had arrived at the top floor of Taihua Building. Under the magnificent decoration, soothing music filled the entire space. Young people in twos and threes were holding wine glasses and talking about something. It felt a bit like the business dinner in the previous life.
Although Ji Boda's image as a bootlicker is deeply rooted in people's minds, he is, after all, a direct descendant of the largest family in Xuantian City. As soon as he arrived, he attracted everyone's attention and they automatically made way for him. At the end of the road was Shen Qingqing who had been there for a long time.
She seemed to be talking with a group of friends. When she saw the movement at the door, she turned her gaze there. The moment she saw Ji Boda and Meng Chen, her pupils shrank slightly. She glanced at her friends around her and felt a little uneasy.
The people around had strange expressions on their faces. Over the years, whenever Ji Boda attended a banquet, he would go to find Shen Qingqing first. Why was he standing at the door this time?
After a moment, in the surprised gaze of everyone, Shen Qingqing stood up with a smile on her face, came up to Ji Boda, took his arm, and pulled him in.
Everyone's expressions were a little weird, one hundred and twenty percent abnormal.
