Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Shen Ping had already asked Chen Bin to investigate the Ji family’s background. Their ancestor was originally the 13th grandson of the Ancestor, but he was exiled by the current emperor because he had confused the harem. Later on, he gradually returned to the capital.
They now had two stargold mines in their hands, and they definitely had more in secret. Therefore, they urgently needed powerful external help to help them and use these assets to enter the clan again.
Therefore, as soon as Ji Ruyue spoke, he Imew what she wanted to say.
“No problem. Just let me Imow if you need anything.”
Shen Ping agreed without any hesitation. He already needed the Heaven’s Will Stones born from the stargold mine, and the more stargold mines there were, the higher the chances of them being born.
“Thank you, Brother Shen.” Ji Ruyue was very ecstatic. Sowhen Lian Nishang was tired and fell asleep, she lay beside him as if she was rewarding him. She opened her door and used her best method to repay Shen Ping, fulfilling his wish to eat together. “Brother Shen, you’re too awesome. I really don’t know how Sister Nishang survived all these years. She can actually last until now!”
As he listened to the heartfelt voice in his ear, Shen Ping smiled indifferently. This was nothing. If not for the fact that he was afraid of waking Lian Nishang up, he would have let Ji Ruyue know the true strength of the Star Platform Realm.
Ten days later, All the Star Realm and Star Palace Realm experts of the Ji Family gathered kin a stargold mine in Changzhou. When Ji Ruyue rushed over with Shen Ping, they got to know each other and talked about serious matters.
“The Jin Family is the one who wants to take the mine. They have the Imperial Dynasty’s Concubine Xian behind them. In recent years, they have been very arrogant and have never taken the other royal relatives seriously. Now, they are even targeting our Ji Family’s mine.”
The family head of the Ji Family’s side branch looked at Shen Ping. “Nephew Shen, no matter the outcome, my Ji Family will reward you heavily for helping my Ji Family.”
Ji Ruyue stood beside Shen Ping and said softly, “The Jin family has five Star Palace cultivators. The highest strength is the third level of the Star Palace. The others are only the second and first levels of the Star Palace. The one on the third level will be taken care of by my grandfather. Big Brother Shen, you and Fifth Uncle can restrain a second level Star Palace cultivator together. After this, I will be yours, both body and mind.”
Even though she had an open personality and was dressed boldly and hotly, there was a rare hint of shyness on her face when she said this. After all, her body and mind included any part.
Shen Ping smiled and reached out to hold Ji Ruyue’s waist. “You said it yourself. Don’t cry out in pain at night.”
Ji Ruyue winked. “Sister Nishang is right. You’re indeed very bad.”
The two of them acted very intimately. However, the other members of the Ji Family turned a blind eye to it. In fact, they didn’t need to guess to know how Ruyue roped in this peerless genius.
To be able to step into the Star Palace Realm at the age of 20, such talent and potential was something that even the main sect of the royal family would do whatever it took. Marrying a princess was nothing.
“They’re here.”
In the distance, bloodline auras descended in the blink of an eye. The five Star Palace experts of the Jin family floated in front of the mineral vein and looked down at the Ji family.
“Tsk tsk, not bad. All the Star Rank cultivators of your side branch are here. It’s just nice to catch them all in one fell swoop. It saves us the trouble of dealing with them.”
“Originally, I only wanted one of your mines. Now… I announce that all the mineral veins belong to my Jin family.” Ashe spoke, thunderclouds suddenly surged within a few kilometers. A large amount of lightning flashed, instantly forming a lightning domain that completely enveloped the mineral vein.
Ji Ruyue and the others subconsciously looked at Shen Ping and saw that he had already stood in front of the five Star Palace experts of the Jin family.
“Brother Shen, come back quickly!” Ji Ruyue was shocked. She didn’t expect Shen Ping to be so rash. Even if the other party was at the Star Palace Realm, he was facing five of them. If something happened, it would be a loss.
The others frowned. Young people were still too impulsive. Just as they were about to make a move, bolts of lightning turned into lightning sabers and descended. In just one or two flashes, three Star Palace Realm experts from the Jin family died before they could even scream.
Shen Ping raised his hand and clenched them. His Devouring Talent quickly refined the star power of the three Star Palace Realm cultivators into blood beads.
This world instantly became silent. Both Ji Ruyue and the remaining experts of the Jin family stared blankly at the three blood beads floating in Shen Ping’s palm. Their minds were blank. He easily killed three Star Palace cultivators. One of them was at the third level of the Star Palace. Even a sixth level Star Palace cultivator could not do this.
“Star-Star Platform Emperor Realm!!”
The remaining two Star Palace experts of the Jin family came back to their senses. Their eyes were filled with fear. Before they could beg for mercy, the lightning struck again.
After killing five Star Palace Realm cultivators, Shen Ping handed the remaining Star Realm cultivators to the Ji family. Then, he pulled the dumbfounded Ji Ruyue back to the Ji family’s courtyard in Changzhou.
After dealing with all the experts of the Jin family, the Ji family’s head suppressed the excitement in his heart. “Star Platform, that’s definitely a Star Platform. Ruyue actually roped in a top-notch Star Platform expert for my Ji family this time. This is too… too…”
Ji Ruyue’s fifth uncle, on the other hand, was calm. “Family Head, although this is a good thing, it might not be the case for my Ji Family. Since the other party is an Emperor Realm expert, how can he be restrained by my Ji Family? To be able to become a Star Platform, he must have a huge force supporting him. I’m afraid the other party has other motives.”
The Ji Family Head calmed down a little, but he still shook his head and said, “No matter what his intentions are, as long as he doesn’t overthrow the Xia Dynasty, he will be an esteemed guest of my Ji Family. Even if I have to sacrifice everything for this, I won’t hesitate. With this expert backing me, my Ji Family branch might be able to reach a higher level.”
