1289 It’s Done

Seeing this scene, Zhi Tong, who was already sitting on the chair, couldn’t help but stand up in shock. He looked at everything in front of him in surprise.

This scene was more like what he had seen in a movie.

“It already started,” Xiao Zhen muttered, his gaze not leaving the mountain opposite. However, although he tried his best to look over, he could not see what had happened on the mountain opposite.

“Brother Xiao Zhen, what if this candle goes out?” Zhi Tong asked in a hoarse voice.

Xiao Zhen turned his head slightly and saw that the candlelight was shaking badly. Even so, it was not extinguished.

“He should be fine,” Xiao Zhen said.

Zhi Tong couldn’t help but nod when he heard this. He looked at the candle in front of him without blinking. For some reason, he became nervous.

In the living room of the Ji residence, everyone was at a loss. Some of them cried again and again, and their tears could not stop flowing.

“Second Uncle, this matter is too unreliable. The old man already left. As family, it’s simply disrespectful to the old man for us to allow such a thing.” After a long time, Old Ji’s youngest son, who was also Ji Haoyu’s third uncle, Ji Yansen, finally couldn’t help but say.

Second Master Ji was holding a half-smoked cigarette in his hand. When he heard this, he looked up. After looking at Ji Yansen, he lowered his head and said softly, “If you have any dissatisfaction, talk to Haoyu.”

“I…” Ji Yansen opened his mouth, looking angry and conflicted.

Talk to Ji Haoyu?

It was not like Ji Yansen did not know that Ji Haoyu and Ji Haoxue were the most upset when the old man suddenly passed away. Since their parents were no longer around since they were young, they grew up beside the old man and were the two juniors the old man doted on the most. Their relationship was naturally different.

At this time, who would dare to approach Ji Haoyu and cause trouble?

“Who is that girl? Why haven’t I seen her before?” At this moment, Third Master Ji couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity .

Not only him, but most of the people present had never seen Jian Ai.

“Hah!” Ji Yansen snorted. “No matter who it is, they’re talking so shamelessly at such a young age. Haoyu actually believed them. How silly!”

“This girl’s name is Xiao Ai. She accidentally saved the old man once in early spring this year. Later, for some reason, she became friends with Young Master Haoyu. A few months ago, she even came to our house for a meal,” Wu Yong said.

“Saved the old man once?” Ji Yanbai couldn’t help but ask in surprise. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something. He couldn’t help but look at Wu Yong and say, “Uncle Wu, was it the time the old man mentioned that he choked on jelly?”

“That’s right.” Wu Yong nodded. “Xiao Ai was also there. Seeing that the situation was urgent, she saved the old man.”

“She used the right method that time, but it’s different from what happened today.” Ji Yansen still didn’t believe it.

The others nodded one after another. Who would believe such a superstitious excuse?

Even so, no one dared to go to Ji Haoyu to protest. With Old Ji gone, the leader of the Ji family became Ji Haoyu. The Ji family branch was complicated. Other than the people present who had direct bloodlines, there were also many close and distant relatives. No matter who these people were, they would still need to rely on the Ji family in the future.

Therefore, everyone knew they could not provoke Ji Haoyu now.

Outside the villa, Ji Haoyu sat on a wooden chair and enjoyed the cold night wind. Jian Ai sat beside him and accompanied him in silence.

The two of them said nothing, but they gripped each other’s hands.

The moon in the sky was like a mirror. Not long after, snow floated down.

Ji Haoyu was expressionless and motionless, but Jian Ai could not be as immersed as he was. From time to time, she would calculate the time in her heart. At this point, Xiao Zhen and Zhi Tong had been in the old man’s bedroom for over an hour.

The more time passed, the more anxious Jian Ai felt. She believed in Xiao Zhen, but she felt conflicted and afraid.

She was afraid that if they failed, wouldn’t that give Ji Haoyu another deep blow?

“Don’t be nervous,” Ji Haoyu suddenly said, as if sensing Jian Ai’s uneasiness.

Jian Ai was a little stunned. Then, she came back to her senses and lowered her head slightly. She said in a weak voice, “I don’t want you to be sad again.”

This was the first time Jian Ai had said such soft words to Ji Haoyu.

It was like words of love but also heartfelt.

She felt the fluctuation in her heart because Ji Haoyu was sad. It was an instinctive reaction that she could not hide in her heart. Seeing Ji Haoyu sad, she was even sadder than him.

When Ji Haoyu heard this, he could not help but look at Jian Ai sideways. His gaze was deep and gentle like the snow that filled the sky.

Ji Haoyu subconsciously let go of Jian Ai’s hand and walked around her shoulder, pulling her into his arms.

He whispered, “Don’t worry about me. I’m fine.”

This time, Jian Ai no longer resisted Ji Haoyu’s intimacy. She leaned in his arms and looked at the falling snow. Jian Ai did not comment on Ji Haoyu’s words, but if her company could make Ji Haoyu feel better…

Then she was willing to accompany him forever.

On the mountaintop, the black-robed man still maintained his original posture. Six scepters spun rapidly around him. Under the black robe, the man’s face was almost pale. Bean-sized sweat kept dripping, and even his back was faintly trembling.

One could imagine how much energy and effort this array formation would consume. The girl behind him frowned tightly, afraid that he could not hold on and cause irreversible consequences.

In the next second, the six spiritual talismans placed beside the black-robed man appeared out of thin air. The spiritual talismans ignited at the same time in the dark night. Low roars came from the top of the scepters.

In the end, the six scepters combined again and suddenly stabbed into the ground in front of the man.

“Pfft!”

The man had already reached his limit. This heaven-defying array formation exhausted all his current strength. He leaned forward and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood!

“Sir!”

The girl was shocked when she saw this. She quickly rushed forward and squatted down to check the man’s condition.

The man raised his hand slightly, showing that he was fine.

The girl couldn’t help but say, “Sir, you’re pushing yourself too hard. You haven’t cultivated the highest level of the Mysterious Underworld Technique. It’s extremely harmful to your body for you to take such a risk.”

The man coughed twice and stood up with difficulty with the girl’s help. He did not respond to the girl’s concern. He only looked at the Ji residence deeply and said faintly, “It’s done. Let’s go.”

In the room, the three spiritual talismans around Old Ji also turned into smoke and dissipated when the black-robed man finished casting the spell. All the candles were also completely extinguished.

Beep! Beep!

The heart rate machine at the bedside sounded again.
