Exquisite Water Gardens was Ji Yushan's hunting grounds within the Bright King's palace. It was a small garden with many rare birds and beasts, and could be said to be a large exhibition garden.
Yan Li was led around, and the only reason he did not show any signs of impatience was because of Fu 'er's enthusiasm for these new things, as well as Ji Yushan's enthusiastic introduction.
This garden was not small, and after strolling through the garden and woods, they came to a specialized racecourse. The horses in the stables were of excellent breeds, and there was also a silver-white foal, which attracted Fu 'er the most.
Ji Yushan observed their expressions and called out, "Men, bring that pure-blooded Northern Lands horse out to play with my Sister Fu 'er."
"Yes." The servant in charge of the stables immediately fetched it and handed it to her. She smiled at the two and introduced, "This breed is called Northern Lands, and is said to have originated from the Kunlun Mountains of the Northern Lands. I have always liked raising horses, and when I received my title a few years ago, Uncle Emperor gave me a pair as a gift. They were born in the middle of the year, and although they are still young, they complement each other well with Sister Fu 'er."
Ji Yushan had a wide range of interests, including hunting, raising horses, and gardening. In this area, Ji Lianmei, on the other hand, was always chasing after the empty title of the Beauty Rankings, and was much inferior.
Yan Li's view of her changed slightly, and he said, "Before the Void Shattering Shuttle appeared, the Northern Lands had always been the favorite mode of transportation for the Nine Great Disciples, and could be seen everywhere in that era."
Ji Yushan's beautiful eyes brightened, and she said, "Senior apprentice-brother Yan also dabbled in it?"
"I talked about it with an old friend," Yan Li said.
Ji Yushan nodded, and turned to Fu 'er with a smile, "Sister Fu' er, do you want to ride it?" She had already observed how much Yan Li doted on this little handmaiden, and she did not seem like a handmaiden at all.
"Yes!" Fu 'er's eyes were wide with anticipation as she looked at the foal.
Ji Yushan secretly observed Yan Li's expression and found that he didn't seem to be disgusted. She carried Fu 'er and placed her on the horse's back. She gave her the reins and ordered two servants to look after her.
Fu 'er rode on the horse. At first, she was very unfamiliar with it and didn't dare to move. Gradually, she seemed to get the hang of it and started to ride. The horse field was immediately filled with her cheerful laughter.
Seeing that Fu'er was having fun, Yan Li didn't interrupt and just watched quietly.
Ji Yushan walked to the side and called over a servant, saying in a low voice, "Go, have someone prepare a table of top-notch wine and dishes and send them to the Beautiful Water Veranda. I want to personally receive senior apprentice-brother Yan."
After she finished, she dismissed the rest of the envoys and came to Yan Li's side, saying softly, "If Sister Fu Er likes it, give it to her. If Senior Brother Yan finds it troublesome, I will send someone to transport it to the Court Of Sword."
Yan Li was a bit hesitant. It seemed that Fu 'er really liked this horse. If he accepted it and let it accompany her, she wouldn't be bored all day. He thought for a moment and said, "How could I let Princess Shuang Xia spend so much money? I am willing to pay double the market price for it."
"Senior apprentice-brother Yan!" Ji Yushan's face was instantly filled with anger. She stomped her feet, "The Nine Greats are of the same branch. What does a horse count for? Don't mention money to me." Her anger was also filled with a myriad of flirtatious emotions, extremely stirring up one's imagination.
"Double the market price? How arrogant of you, friend!"
At this time, an uninvited voice filled with mockery rang out. The two looked towards the source of the voice and saw two people slowly walking in from the entrance of the horse field. One was Feng Yi Yang. He had a faint smile on his face, but his gaze was fixed on Ji Yushan.
As soon as Ji Yushan saw them, her heart skipped a beat, wondering why the two of them had come.
The other was a man of about twenty-five or twenty-six years of age. He had a spirited face, and the style of his clothes was no different from ordinary ones. However, the material seemed to be some kind of animal leather armor. He walked with an imposing manner, and it was precisely him who had mocked them.
He very quickly arrived before the two of them, sizing up Yan Li with a gaze filled with enmity. However, he was only at the same height as Yan Li, and could only look at him at eye level. After a moment, he slightly raised his head and said, "Li Zhengjun of the Wilderness Deity Temple, may I ask for your guidance?"
"Cangjian Peak Yan Li," Yan Li said.
"So you are that genius who broke through to the fourth level." Li Zhengjun smiled playfully. "How about it? Are you interested in having a match with me?"
"Not interested," Yan Li said.
"Am I not worthy of you fighting?" Li Zhengjun raised his brows provocatively.
"Are you very famous?" Yan Li asked.
Li Zhengjun was startled. This was the first time he had been asked this question. He thought for a moment, then laughed, "Do I have to be famous to fight you? Are you very famous? "
Yan Li smiled. "You asked if I was interested, and I said no, so you are changing the concept. Besides, I don't know you, but you know me. That is enough to answer your question. "
"A little interesting." Li Zhengjun laughed, but soon said with ill intentions, "But, you said that you would buy it at double the price. Do you know how much it is worth?"
"I really don't know," Yan Li said honestly.
Li Zhengjun smiled coldly. "A pure-blooded Northern Lands, and just born. It is worth at least five thousand soul stones. If you use double, it will be ten thousand. Cangjian Peak is a run-down place. Everyone in the Immortal World knows that. What are you going to use to buy it? "
"I really can't afford it," Yan Li said honestly.
"Let me give it to you," Li Zhengjun said lightly.
"Oh?" Yan Li raised his eyebrows.
"I will help you pay for these ten thousand soul stones. I only ask that you stay away from Shanshan in the future!" Li Zhengjun turned his head and stared at Ji Yushan. "Shanshan, you won't reject me, right?"
"Senior Brother Zhengjun …" Ji Yushan could not understand what Li Zhengjun was thinking. How could giving and buying be the same? At this point, wasn't it a complete transaction? She almost suspected that Li Zhengjun was trying to please the Court Of Sword.
"Junior Sister, when did you invite an expert from Cangjian Peak?" Feng Yiyang suddenly spoke while she was secretly worried.
Ji Yushan smiled gratefully at him. "Senior Brother Yan, let me introduce you. This is Feng Yiyang, the chief disciple of Mystic God Sect."
Disappointment flashed across Li Zhengjun's eyes, or rather, disappointment. He raised his hand and waved. Without saying another word, he quickly left.
Yan Li looked at his back, deep in thought. This person was quite interesting. It was just that he was too weird to use such a method to protect himself. It was not something an ordinary person could understand.
"I have prepared a table of dishes at the Beautiful Water Pavilion to welcome Senior Brother Yan. Senior Brother Feng, you came at the right time. Why don't you join us?" Ji Yushan smiled.
"Let's skip the meal," Yan Li said.
Ji Yushan was startled. She then forced a smile and asked, "What's wrong, Senior Brother Yan? Is there something I didn't do well enough? "
"I will accept the horse." Yan Li shook his head. "Take the money from Li Zhengjun."
"Senior Brother Yan, just take it. I will not accept the money." Ji Yushan said.
"You have to accept it," Yan Li said.
"Why?" Ji Yushan was a little annoyed. Her expression turned cold.
Yan Li said indifferently, "Do you think he is spending this money to chase me away? He is spending this money to protect your dignity. He wants you to stop trying to please me. Also, if Senior Brother Feng is not here, I will take my leave. "
Ji Yushan froze. If it was in the past, she would have done everything she could to make him stay.
"Fu 'er, let's go."
"Master, I still want to ride it."
"Then ride it."
Yan Li took Lil Bei and left with Fu 'er.
"Master, let's give it a name …" Fu 'er's joyful voice came from afar.
Ji Yushan stood there for a long time. Suddenly, she felt a pair of hands reach out from behind and touch her body. Her breathing became heavier. She pressed down hard and gritted her teeth. "Senior Brother Feng!"
"He is definitely talking nonsense, do you know that?" Feng Yi Yang bit her earlobe and stuck his tongue in. "Li Zhengjun is a famous rich young master in the Immortal World. Spending ten thousand soul stones is nothing. When we first came here, he even wanted to use twenty thousand soul stones to get me and Elder Yu to return home."
Ji Yushan said coldly. "I know he is talking nonsense. He is just making up an excuse because he is poor. Senior Brother Feng, you did not do what I promised you last time. I can't do what I promised you. "
"Then what do you want!" Feng Yi Yang's eyes were red. He had to push Ji Yushan under him before Li Zhengjun.
"I want you to think of a way to kill Li Zhengjun!" Ji Yushan said coldly.
"Why?" Feng Yi Yang was shocked.
"That bastard, he is useless in the palace and he dares to ruin my plans. I cannot forgive him!" Ji Yushan said angrily.
Feng Yi Yang's eyes turned and he smiled darkly. "Fine, but this is too difficult. I want you now."
"This …" Ji Yushan hesitated for a long time. Her eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness. Finally, she let go and let him search.
Outside the garden, Yan Li stopped listening. His face was dark and his eyes flashed with fire. But he did not meddle and continued walking with Lil Bei. "Name? I'll think of a better one when I have time."
"Okay." Fu Er said happily. Then she bent down and hugged the horse's neck as if it was her baby.
Lil Bei seemed to like her very much. It tilted its head and rubbed against her.
Yan Li began to feel that the palace was filled with a kind of melancholy, forcing him to quicken his pace. He said, "Raising a horse is also a kind of knowledge. When I get back, I will find a master who specializes in this field. You must learn well and not give up halfway. Understand?"
"Master, don't look down on me. For Lil Lu, I will be very serious." Fu Er said firmly.
"What Lil Lu?" Yan Li was stunned.
"Little Lulu, Little Lulu," Fu'er corrected him.
"Okay …" Yan Li shook his head and smiled. He said helplessly, "But, didn't we agree to think carefully and think of a better name?"
Lil Bei turned around and called out to him. Looking at its happy and proud eyes, Lil Bei seemed to really like the name Fu 'er had given it.
He had heard that northern horses were psychic. He thought for a while and nodded. "Then Lil Lu it is."
"But Yan Tanhua!"
At the end of the path, a black-faced man suddenly appeared.
"You are?" Yan Li stopped in confusion.
The black-faced man said, "I don't remember my name. Everyone calls me Old Black. Yan Tanhua, this is not the place to talk. My master wants to invite you. "
"Who is your master?" Yan Li asked.
