Ji Tianxing had his own plans regarding the Ling Family, so Ji Changkong didn't say anything else.
Then, Ji Tianxing said with a serious expression, "Father, I also have something to report to you."
"I went to the Spirit Medicine Hall just now, but I didn't see Master Xue. Instead, I met the Gu Family's third young master, Gu Hao."
"He molested Huan 'er in front of everyone, so I attacked him in anger. I wanted to teach him a lesson, but I didn't expect to kill him with one palm …"
Ji Tianxing briefly explained how he had killed Gu Hao with a single palm strike.
Ji Changkong's expression changed slightly as he raised his eyebrows and said in a serious tone, "Gu Hao is the third son of Yunzhou's provincial governor, Gu Xizhi. Although this child is unbearably stubborn and is not valued by Gu Xizhi …"
"But Gu Hao is still his own flesh and blood. This matter concerns the Gu Family's reputation, so it is indeed a little troublesome. However, it is only a little troublesome. "
Pausing, he calmly said to Ji Tianxing, "Tianxing, father will take care of this matter. You don't need to do anything, just focus on recuperating."
"It's just a mere Gu Family. Although they have a lot of power, Gu Xizhi doesn't have the guts to start a war with my Ji Family!"
Ji Changkong's words were filled with toughness and dominance. His protection and love for Ji Tianxing was also evident.
"Father, thank you for your trouble." Ji Tianxing bowed, then excused himself and left the study.
When Ji Tianxing left and only Ji Changkong was left in the study, he revealed an astonished expression. The corner of his mouth hooked into a playful smile.
"That Gu Hao is said to have the strength of the fifth level of the Body Refinement Realm. Tianxing is only at the third level of the Body Refinement Realm, but he was able to kill Gu Hao with one palm?"
"Haha, my son is indeed a martial arts genius. He didn't disappoint me. It seems that even if he falls to the Body Refinement Realm, he will rise again sooner or later! "
Thinking of this, Ji Changkong's mood eased a lot. The dark clouds that had accumulated in his heart over the past few days also dissipated.
… …
When Ji Tianxing returned to his residence, he saw Huan 'er sitting in the room in a daze with tear stains on her charming face.
He smiled and comforted Huan'er with a few words.
"Silly girl, what are you thinking about?"
"That Gu Hao is just the Third Young Master of the Gu Family. If he is killed, then so be it. Why can't our Ji Family settle such a small matter?"
"Moreover, Gu Hao is a hedonistic playboy. Who knows how many innocent women he has harmed over the years and how many innocent people he has secretly killed. He deserves to die!"
With Ji Tianxing by her side, Huan 'er had a backbone.
After Ji Tianxing comforted her, she quickly calmed down and wiped away her tears.
"Huan 'er, go and rest. I'm going to cultivate in seclusion."
After Huan 'er left the room, Ji Tianxing opened a secret passage in the corner and entered the secret room to cultivate.
The secret room was dimly lit. He sat cross-legged in the middle of the Elemental Gathering Array and began to cultivate the Dao of the Heart of the Sword.
Now, the Ji Clan had to add the Gu Clan to their list of enemies. The situation was getting more and more dangerous.
Ji Tianxing only wanted to cultivate the 12 strands of Sword Qi as soon as possible. He wanted to condense the Sword Embryo in his body and increase his strength as soon as possible.
In this world where martial arts were respected, only powerful martial arts could protect himself, his father, and the Ji Clan.
However, when Ji Tianxing sensed the two strands of Sword Qi in his body, his expression changed. He revealed a look of deep surprise.
"Eh? I condensed two strands of Sword Qi last night. Why is there only one strand left?! "
Last night, he had diligently cultivated for an entire night and only managed to condense two strands of Sword Qi. One strand was stored in the Huizong acupoint on his right arm and the other in the Yangchi acupoint on the back of his hand.
But now, the Sword Qi in the Huizong acupoint was still there, but the Sword Qi in the Yangchi acupoint was gone.
Ji Tianxing was both depressed and puzzled.
He frowned and thought for a long time. Suddenly, he recalled the scene after Gu Hao was killed and blood appeared on his chest.
"At that time, I only slapped Gu Hao once. There was a wound on his left chest. Obviously, he died because his heart was injured …"
Thinking of this, Ji Tianxing's eyes suddenly lit up. He instantly guessed the reason.
"I understand now! It must be that strand of Sword Qi that killed Gu Hao! "
"No wonder he was slapped to death by me. So that's why! I didn't think that the Sword Qi that I condensed would have such a strong power! "
Ji Tianxing was enlightened and his mood became excited.
"Only with the strength of the True Element Realm would one be able to release the True Essence from their body and increase the power of their attacks."
"I didn't think that with only the strength of the third level of the Body Refinement Realm, I would be able to use Sword Qi to kill people! The Dao of the Sword Heart is indeed marvelous and too strong! "
"Right now I'm only condensing Sword Qi. When I successfully condense the sword embryo, how strong would its power be? I'm afraid it wouldn't be much different from the True Element Realm right? "
Ji Tianxing could faintly feel that although the Dao of the Sword Heart that he cultivated seemed to be an unorthodox path, it had a power that orthodox martial arts could not match!
After a long while, his mood calmed down and he began to concentrate on cultivating, continuing to condense Sword Qi.
With the previous experience of condensing Sword Qi, now that he was cultivating Sword Qi again, his speed was slightly faster.
He cultivated continuously for a day and a night and actually successfully condensed five strands of Sword Qi!
Including the Sword Qi in his Huizong Acupuncture Point, he already had six strands of Sword Qi.
He had already completed half of the twelve strands of Sword Qi required to condense the sword embryo!
Ji Tianxing's spirit was aroused and he originally wanted to continue cultivating.
But he had cultivated continuously for twenty four hours and had used up too much of his energy. He was already famished and had no choice but to end his cultivation.
Currently he was only at the Body Refinement Realm and was still far from the realm where martial artists did not need to eat.
Furthermore, Body Refinement Realm martial artists originally needed to consume large amounts of meat and tonics daily to replenish their blood and qi and convert it into essence Qi to temper their body and raise their strength.
When Ji Tianxing left the secret room and returned to his room, the sun was rising from the east and the sun was shining brightly in the morning.
He let Huan 'er bring over a lot of food from the kitchen and had breakfast in his room.
Huan 'er brought out nine plates of delicious delicacies from the food box and a bowl of light green rice which filled the entire table.
Ji Tianxing glanced at the dishes and rice on the table and could not help but reveal a smile.
"Fire beef, spiritual mutton, mystic tiger meat, spiritual herb roasted chicken. All of them are first rank demonic beast ingredients and there's also a bowl of rice made from spiritual rice …"
"This meal cost at least ten thousand taels of silver. It's even better than my meals in the past. Father really put a lot of thought into this."
Huan 'er nodded her head worriedly. "That's right. Ever since Young Master got into trouble, Old Master not only did not reduce your monthly allowance, he even doubled it."
"The elders of the other halls are very dissatisfied with Old Master's methods. Last night they even quarreled with Old Master in the main hall because of the Gu Clan."
While eating, Ji Tianxing sneered without raising his head, "Hehe, my uncles have always been suppressed by my father, and their children have also been suppressed by me to the point that they can't breathe."
"Now that something has happened to me, they are relieved and can finally hold their heads high."
Huan 'er pursed her lips and continued. "Eldest Young Master, yesterday people from the Gu Clan came to the residence and caused a ruckus. They threatened to make you pay with your life, but Old Master temporarily suppressed this matter."
"Today, the Gu Clan found the help of two other aristocratic families and joined forces to pressure Old Master. Today, Old Master went to negotiate with them."
"The three elders of the residence not only did not help Old Master resolve this matter, but they also secretly rejoiced in other's misfortune. They discussed handing you over to the Gu Clan to be dealt with so that the Ji Clan would not be implicated …"
Ji Tianxing continued to eat without changing his expression. It was obvious that he had already expected the reaction of his three uncles. He was not surprised or angry at all.
