Chapter 1263 - 968 Suisui Says I Want to Wander Jianghu_3
"Stop wasting words, hand over the Jade Seal, and I might spare your life today!"
Pearl laughed, "You? Are you even worthy of saying that to me?"
As soon as the words left her mouth, she and Enchanting charged into the encirclement.
In the Guest Courtyard, Ji Youze searched around before finding Ji Youcheng holding Xiaosuisui, watching the Carp.
"Third brother, are you hiding something from me?"
Ji Youcheng held Xiaosuisui, staring at the small fish tank without lifting his head.
"Third brother! Say something! Is something wrong with Mom?"
"What nonsense are you spouting? Mom is fine, what’s there to be wrong?"
"But I just feel you are hiding something from me. Earlier, you were clearly speaking only half-heartedly!"
Ji Youze’s accusation was not acknowledged by Ji Youcheng at all.
Seeing Ji Youcheng unwilling to speak, Ji Youze came up with another plan and quickly said to Xiaosuisui, "Dear, use your mind-reading skill and find out what your third uncle is thinking?
See if it’s something about your grandmother that he’s hiding from us!"
Upon hearing this, Xiaosuisui nodded and used his mind-reading skill, only to hear repetitively, "Can’t hear, the little girl can’t hear, I don’t want to think, I don’t think about anything..."
Xiaosuisui: "..."
"So? What’s your third uncle thinking? Is there something about your grandmother?"
Xiaosuisui shook his head, saying, "Third uncle keeps thinking about making me unable to hear him, he doesn’t want to think, so I don’t know..."
Ji Youze: "..."
"Ji Youcheng, don’t force me to use tactics to make you speak!"
"What? This means you’d dare to use torture on me?
Don’t disrespect me, I’m still your third brother. If you dare to call me by my full name again, I’ll beat you!"
Ji Youze: "..."
The perennial poker face showed signs of anger, but he quickly settled his emotions and looked at Xiaosuisui.
Xiaosuisui pouted, thought for a moment, then said.
"Actually, even if third uncle doesn’t say anything, I can still guess a bit. Can you calm down first, eighth uncle?"
"You can guess a bit? What have you guessed? Quickly tell eighth uncle!"
"Grandmother’s health has been poor for a long time. Based on my medical skill, I can see that she might have been a cultivator before, but for some reason, her cultivation suddenly disappeared entirely, damaging her roots and leaving her with little lifespan. For years, she hasn’t had any illnesses, nor has she shown any signs of health issues in front of us. I think perhaps second uncle has been suppressing it!"
When Ji Youze heard this, his head buzzed loudly.
Ji Youcheng remained silent for a long time before Ji Youze spoke again, "In your view, how much longer does your grandmother have?"
Xiaosuisui looked troubled, wanting to speak but found herself unable to.
Suddenly, her ears twitched, and she blurted out, "Eighth aunt is in danger!"
Then, grabbing Ji Youze, she said, "Get ready, Feifei!"
They climbed over the courtyard wall, and Ji Youcheng quickly followed. Within a few breaths, they reached the mansion, and Ji Youze and Xiaosuisui naturally joined the battle.
With Xiaosuisui present, Ji Youze hardly expended any effort, helping Pearl repel two death warriors. Only then did he ask.
"Are you okay?"
Pearl shook her head, "I’m fine. Didn’t you go after them to the Guest Courtyard? How did you come back so quickly?"
Ji Youze caught a few assassins. Ultimately, the assassin directly took poison to commit suicide.
Enchanting didn’t care about anything over there and had already fled.
Ji Youcheng stood on the rooftop, watching Enchanting, lost in thought.
"Let’s go. They didn’t succeed this time and will definitely come back. It’s not safe here anymore."
Ji Youze suggested, leading Pearl Princess toward the General’s Mansion for protection.
On the way, Ji Youcheng seized the opportunity to question Enchanting.
"Enchanting lady, are you the maid of Pearl Princess?"
Enchanting nodded, putting on an enchanting demeanor.
She winked at Ji Youcheng.
"Yes! Has the third young master taken a liking to me? If so, I can inform my lady and have her give me to you. I can become a concubine for you."
Seeing Enchanting’s appearance, Ji Youcheng shivered uncontrollably and quickly shook his head, saying, "No need. I’m just curious about whom you learned from? This eyebrow artistry is not something just anyone can master!"
Enchanting: "... You, sir, can see I possess eyebrow artistry?"
Ji Youcheng: "..." That was obvious. Given her enchanting demeanor, anyone knowledgeable could see it, right?
"Honestly, I don’t have a master. This cultivation technique was given to me by my lady princess, supposedly from Bai Xiaosheng of the Jianghu. He gave my lady this technique. Initially, the princess just asked me to try it, but unexpectedly, I succeeded."
Upon hearing this, Ji Youcheng either furrowed his brows or pondered deeply.
"Bai Xiaosheng of the Jianghu? Isn’t that a character from picture books?
How does Pearl Princess know such a person?
Strange, I’ve never heard of it..."
