Chapter 26 You liar!
……
Night falls.
After Lin Cai'er and others left, Ji Chen started practicing alone in the yard.
at the same time.
Yuhua Sect, inner sect.
Outside a courtyard gate, Ji Xueruo hummed a little tune and came here.
"Sister Yanran, are you there?"
She knocked on the gate, but after waiting for a while, there was no response.
"Sister Yanran?"
Ji Xueruo called out again tentatively.
After waiting for a while, still no sound came.
Out of curiosity, she pushed the door open and walked in.
Then, under a big tree not far away, in the moonlight, she saw a figure lying on the ground, curled up.
It’s Ji Yanran.
She was shivering with cold and folded her arms over her chest.
"Sister Yanran, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing this scene, Ji Xueruo's face suddenly changed and she was horrified.
Obviously, she didn't know about Ji Yanran's special physique, nor had she ever seen the scene of her being invaded by the cold air in her body.
Without any hesitation, Ji Xueruo ran up immediately.
When her palm touched Ji Yanran, Ji Xueruo was so frightened that she immediately retracted her hand, "Why is it so cold?"
"Xue...Xue Rou, are you here?"
Ji Yanran curled up there in pain, her face pale and she seemed to be in great agony, but she did not faint and was still conscious.
Hearing Ji Xueruo's call, she slightly opened her eyes, forced a smile on her face and said, "Don't... don't worry... it will be fine soon..."
"Sister Yanran, what happened to you?"
Ji Xueruo was so anxious that she burst into tears, her tears falling down in big drops. She was extremely uneasy. She felt that Ji Yanran was in such a state that she seemed like she would die at any time.
What happened?
Ji Yanran did not respond. Her brows were furrowed, her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she made a humming sound from her mouth, looking extremely tormented.
Seeing her like this, Ji Xueruo didn't know what to do and suddenly became at a loss.
She really wanted to help her relieve the pain, but she didn't know where to start, and she didn't understand what was wrong with Ji Yanran.
"call……"
Just when she was jumping up and down anxiously, finally, Ji Yanran, who was lying on the ground, slowly let out a long breath, feeling relieved.
After a few breaths, she seemed to have recovered and sat up from the ground. Her complexion had also recovered a lot and was no longer as pale as before.
"Sister Yanran, what happened to you?"
Ji Xueruo's eyes were red as she asked worriedly.
"It's okay, it's all over." Ji Yanran forced a smile, feeling a little sad.
"How can it be okay?"
Ji Xueruo didn't believe it. "You were like that just now. I almost thought you were going to die. Sister Yanran, please tell me what happened?"
Seeing her so anxious, Ji Yanran was suddenly dazed.
As she recalled, when she had her first cold attack and was discovered by Ji Chen, his appearance seemed to be no different from Ji Xueruo at this moment.
At that time, Ji Chen was also very scared, anxious and worried about himself.
However, Ji Yanran never gave the other party a good look.
"this matter……"
She pondered for a long time before finally explaining the matter in detail to Ji Xueruo.
"You mean, you've been like this for a long time?"
Ji Xueruo opened her eyes wide in disbelief.
In all these years, I never noticed that Sister Yanran would be like this.
What’s more, Dad doesn’t even know!
"In the entire Ji family, apart from you, only Ji Chen knows about this matter. Moreover, his blood can suppress the coldness in my body..."
Ji Yanran remained silent and did not continue speaking.
Ji Xueruo couldn't help but tremble when she heard that. She didn't say anything either. She just looked at her for a long time before she took a breath. "Sister Yanran, tell me the truth. Did you really want to persuade Ji Chen to return when you joined Yuhua Sect this time?"
"I……"
Hearing this, Ji Yanran's face turned pale and she didn't know how to respond.
Seeing her like this, Ji Xueruo couldn't help crying again, "Wuwu... Sister Yanran, you lied to me. You followed him to Yuhua Sect just for Ji Chen's blood. You didn't really want to persuade Ji Chen to go back."
"you liar!"
She was very hurt and felt disappointed for Ji Chen.
Why is this happening?
"No, Xue Rou, listen to me."
Ji Yanran pulled her to sit down and tried her best to comfort her.
Only after Ji Xueruo calmed down did Ji Yanran continue, "At first... I did it for his blood. I was afraid that after he left the Ji family, he would never come back. You don't understand the feeling of the cold air invading your body. You don't know how difficult it is. I hope you can understand..."
"But now, I can't explain what I was thinking. Did I follow him to Yuhua Sect just for Ji Chen's blood, or did I really want to persuade him to go back?"
"Over the years, our Ji family has indeed owed him a lot. Back then, he was just like you, always liking to stick by my side, but I only ever yelled at him, scolded him, despised him, and hated him..."
"But now, at least I know how to reflect on myself. I know that what I did before was wrong. I shouldn't have treated him like that. After all, they are our closest relatives who share the same bloodline as us."
"I really want him to go back."
"But now he has completely given up on our Ji family. Moreover, after leaving the Ji family, he seems to have become different. He makes me feel very strange."
"Not only did he get to know Master Lin Qing, he was also able to chat and laugh with him."
"Moreover, during the entrance examination a few days ago..."
When she said this, Ji Yanran couldn't calm down.
Even I only struck the seven crystals of the spirit-testing drum.
But Ji Chen, who was only at the seventh level of Qi Refining Realm, had accomplished something that no one had ever done before.
Nine crystals, how dazzling!
Until now, Ji Yanran still felt as if she was dreaming.
The younger brother who he had always regarded as a waste would one day shine so brightly.
What exactly happened to Ji Chen?
She didn't understand and had no way of knowing.
Over the years, has the Ji family really tried to understand Ji Chen?
His spiritual sea is blocked and it is difficult for him to practice. What is the reason?
The Ji family had never thought about these things, nor had they ever thought of ways to help Ji Chen solve the problem.
Now, after leaving the Ji family, it seemed as if everything about him had gotten better.
This feeling made Ji Yanran feel as if the Ji family was dragging Ji Chen down.
"This is the storage bag that Ji Chen left behind the day he left the Ji family. There is still some of his blood in it, but it is only enough for me to drink twice. I dare not think about how I will be able to hold on without his blood in the future."
"So just now, when I had the cold attack, I thought about holding on. I can't just rely on Ji Chen and his blood like before." Ji Yanran said.
