For the past eight days, Ji Tianxing had been in seclusion and no one had disturbed him. {sui} {meng}

Now that Qi Huanzhi had sent a guard to him and said that he had something urgent to discuss, something must have happened.
Thus, Ji Tianxing walked out of the secret room with Bai Long.
The guard was stunned when he saw someone else beside him.
However, the guard was smart enough to look away and pretended that he had not seen anything. He bowed and left.
Ji Tianxing took Bai Long and strode to the study.
The study was very quiet and Qi Huanzhi was the only one there.
When Ji Tianxing and Bai Long entered the study, he was standing in front of the window in a daze with a grave expression.
"Huanzhi, what happened?"
Ji Tianxing asked straightforwardly as soon as he entered the room.
Qi Huanzhi immediately came back to his senses and sighed in relief. "Brother Tianxing, you're finally out of seclusion …"
Halfway through his sentence, his gaze fell on Bai Long and he carefully sized him up.
Bai Long was wearing a spotless white robe like Ji Tianxing.
However, he was thinner and his face was pale and bloodless. He was devilishly handsome and had waist-length silver hair.
"Brother Tianxing, who is this young master?"
Before Ji Tianxing could answer, Bai Long stepped forward and cupped his hands with a smile. "I'm Bai Long, Master's disciple. Greetings, Young Master Qi."
Bai Long greeted him with a normal salute.
However, his personal style was too prominent. He was frivolous and frivolous.
Qi Huanzhi did not dislike him. Instead, he felt that they were birds of a feather. He smiled and said, "Brother Tianxing, you're a genius and the lucky star of the Qi family.
I didn't expect your disciple to be a dragon among men, so carefree and unruly … "
Bai Long smiled and said, "You're too humble, Young Master Qi. You're also handsome, generous, heroic, and wise. I really admire you."
Qi Huan Zhi's eyes lit up as he nodded repeatedly. "Brother White Dragon, we're on the same side from now on. I guarantee that you'll be free and unfettered in the Qi Mansion and Qingshan City."
The two of them felt like old friends at first sight. They appreciated each other and were even about to become sworn brothers.
Seeing this, Ji Tianxing pretended to cough twice to interrupt them.
"Ahem … Anzhi, let's talk business first."
Only then did Qi Huanzhi come to his senses. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, let's talk business first.
This was what happened.
Four days ago, my father completed the handover with the City Lord's Mansion, and all the people of the City Lord's Mansion withdrew from the Profound Light Cave.
My father took a large number of craftsmen, guards, and miners and smoothly took over the Profound Light Cave.
"But the day before yesterday, we received a message from the Tianfeng County saying that a batch of pets of the Qi family had died on a large scale.
The two forces there were very angry and insisted that my father deal with this matter.
The other party's background is not small. Our family cannot easily offend them.
Moreover, if this matter is not handled properly, it will affect my family's reputation and business.
"My father had no choice but to go to the Tianfeng County City in person.
Before he left, he handed the Profound Light Cave to me and asked me to watch over it carefully.
"But yesterday, when the craftsmen and a group of miners were mining a vein in the cave, an accident happened.
"For some reason, the vein exploded, killing more than a dozen craftsmen and more than three hundred miners on the spot …
"That vein also collapsed, causing panic in the Profound Light Cave. The miners can't mine normally."
Qi Huanzhi gave him a brief account of what had happened.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Ji Tianxing and said, "Brother Tianxing, I've been investigating for a long time, but I still can't find out what happened. I can only ask for your help."
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and said in a low voice, "The City Lord's Mansion has occupied the Profound Light Cave for seventy years. They have long regarded that mine as their golden nest.
"They lost this competition. On the surface, they handed over the Profound Light Cave according to the agreement.
"But in reality, they must hate the Qi family to death.
"On the surface, they won't take revenge on you, but they will secretly do something to make it impossible for the Qi family to smoothly take over the Profound Light Cave."
Qi Huanzhi quickly nodded and said, "Yes! I also think so, but I can't find out the reason. "
Ji Tianxing continued to ask, "Are the two forces in Tianfeng Province City related to the City Lord's Mansion? How is their relationship with the Blood Sword Sect? "
Qi Huanzhi frowned and said with some uncertainty, "I'm not very clear about this. They shouldn't be related, right?
Brother Tianxing, you mean … "
Bai Long patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Young Master Qi, it seems that the City Lord's Mansion is not the only force that wants to deal with the Qi family.
"Your father just took over the Profound Light Cave, and the business in Tianfeng Province City had problems.
Moreover, the two forces insisted that your father must personally deal with it.
This is clearly a scheme to lure the tiger away from the mountain! "
Qi Huanzhi's face suddenly changed. He nodded in agreement and said, "Yes! I also thought of this before, but I didn't dare to be sure.
After your analysis, I feel that there is an eighty percent chance that it is!
"The City Lord's Mansion may not be able to control the two forces in Tianfeng Province City.
However, the Blood Sword Sect is even more powerful, and it is very likely that they instigated the two forces to secretly plot against our Qi family.
After all, the Blood Sword Sect wanted to get a share of the pie and take seventy percent of the Profound Light Cave's production.
They came full of confidence and suffered a setback in our Qi family, but reached an agreement with the Lu family.
In the end, Mu Ye was beaten half to death by the Tianxing brothers, and the Blood Sword Sect's plan failed.
Given the Blood Sword Sect's style of doing things, they will definitely retaliate. "
Thinking of this, Qi Huanzhi was filled with resentment and worry.
"Brother Tianxing, the Blood Sword Sect is one of the top forces in the Divine Kingdom and is very powerful.
Now that they have already made a move against the Qi family, what should we do? "
Ji Tianxing calmly comforted him, "Don't panic. No matter how powerful the Blood Sword Sect is, they can't openly violate the laws of the empire and directly destroy the Qi family, right?"
"That's true." Qi Huanzhi nodded and said with gritted teeth, "It is a peaceful era now. If the Blood Sword Sect openly destroys a noble family, they will be punished by the Divine Kingdom."
Ji Tianxing smiled and said, "Then what do you have to worry about?
The Blood Sword Sect is very powerful, but they can't openly attack the Qi family and can only resort to crafty schemes.
As long as we don't panic and fight steadily and solve the problem step by step, we will be able to block their attacks.
As long as you do as I say, there won't be any problems … "
Thus, Ji Tianxing reminded Qi Huanzhi of a few things and made some arrangements.
Qi Huanzhi nodded repeatedly, and his eyes regained their radiance as he regained his confidence.
Then, Ji Tianxing got up and walked out. "Alright, pass down the order first.
The most important thing right now is to make a trip to the Profound Light Cave and deal with the matter of that ore vein. "
Qi Huanzhi complied and summoned a guard to pass down the order.
Then, the three of them stepped out of the study together.
After leaving the Qi residence, they rode on three White Winged Pegasus and rushed to the Setting Sun Sea in the north.
