Chapter 751: Chapter 751: If You Want To Step On Si Fuqing, You Have To Have The Ability First (3)

“No, it is entirely appropriate,” Old Master JI insisted, gently pushing her hand away. “This bow is to thank you for shattering the Parade of Hundreds Ghosts years ago, protecting the Eastern State of Great Xia from their invasion.”

The thought of those hundred ghosts alone was chilling!

Had those hundred ghosts crossed the Eastern Ridge Sea and reached the shores of Eastern State, one could only imagine the bloodshed that would have ensued.

It could be said that without Yu Wu, the lives of countless people in Eastern State would have been in grave peril.

“This was merely my duty,” Si Fuqing helped him to stand, “Even if they hadn’t reached Eastern State, breaking their formation was necessary.”

“Senior Yu Wu has always been steadfast and unyielding,” Old Master JI said. “Knowing you is this young man’s fortune. If you ever need help, I will assist you to the end.”

“There is indeed one matter where I could use Old Master JI’s assistance,” Si Fuqing nodded. “I know an elder who lost his child twenty years ago, around the time when the Supernatural Management Bureau was in turmoil, and many extraordinary individuals were restless.”

“Twenty years ago?” Old Master JI furrowed his brow. “That’s a long time, not to mention that among the five major dragon veins, Sijiu is one of them, with no wandering spirits around.”

This was indeed a complication.

As a Master of Yin-Yang, he could not communicate with wandering spirits to learn about the past events.

“But since you’ve asked, will certainly help,” Old Master JI said solemnly. “The JI family has always been dedicated to protecting the country and its people; this too falls within our duties.”

“Old Master JI, please,” Si Fuqing gestured with her hand. “Since you’ve made it to Sijiu, let me show you around.”

Old Master JI happily continued eating his candied hawthorn.

“Big brother, you know how our old man always talks about the heavy responsibility of the JI family resting on me,” JI Xingzhi scratched his head. “Could there be something special about me? I’m not like you, born to be a child of luck, so maybe he’s just building castles in the air.”

Si Fuqing frowned.

The JI family had withdrawn from society suddenly, without any warning.

And at that time, the JI family was revered in the realm of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements; even psychic evolved beings couldn’t locate them when they secluded themselves.

She awaited the arrival of her gaming pod, which would allow her to travel holographically back to the Great Xia Dynasty through her game, potentially meeting JI Chunyuan, the ancient patriarch of the JI family himself. Maybe then she could learn the reasons behind their decision to go into seclusion.

Today also marked the premiere of “Crossing the Demon Realm” and “Great Zhao Dynasty.”

From morning, both TV dramas had topped the trending searches.

Numerous well-known actors had already shared the premiere trailer for “Great Zhao Dynasty,” including award-winning stars.

[Tong Luoyun’s friends are impressive, truly worthy of a Triple Golden Film Awards Winner and Triple Golden TV Awards Queen. She’s brought out so many people.]

[Wow, so many top-tier actors and actresses are supporting Queen Tong.]

[In terms of publicity, Si Fuqing is already at a disadvantage, apart from Yuan Heping and Cheng Yiqiao, she doesn’t really know many influential people in the film industry.]

[Tonight’s viewership for ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’ is probably going to be dismal.]

There were also many who retweeted the premiere trailer for “Crossing the Demon Realm,” but indeed, too few were related to the film industry.

Many stars unrelated to either drama had chosen to support Tong Luoyun.

As netizens compared the support groups of Tong Luoyun and Si Fuqing, a new name suddenly surged up the trending list.

It rocketed to the top position almost instantly.
