Chapter 107: Encountering an Acquaintance

"Brother, you are indeed better than me all your life! Even my son is the same."

Qi Jiahua looked at the direction Qi Yunxian was leaving, and after a moment, he sighed,

Looking at Qi Yunpeng next to him, he also opened his eyes at this moment. As he expected, he was just pretending to be dizzy before.

"I'm sorry, father, I disappoint you. But I have really worked hard. Why did Qi Yunxian surpass me so easily? We are all just the same middle-grade spiritual roots?"

Qi Yunpeng cried with tears streaming down his face, saying that only he knew what his father Qi Jiahua had paid to raise the resources that allowed him to break through to the ninth level of Qi refining.

After decades of accumulation, even the most important Baiyunfang store in his family has been sold off, in order to allow him to perform well in the family competition. He has been working hard for this goal. He had not thought about winning the first prize, but he wanted to compete for the top ten.

It's a pity that those dreams were completely shattered by Qi Yunxian today. Blood and tears flowed from the corners of his mouth, making him feel particularly bitter.

Qi Jiahua quietly watched his son cry helplessly, and in a daze he saw himself decades ago.

Qi Yunxian's father, Qi Yuanhua, was also a desperate opponent. He defeated him so easily, and then won the family competition in one fell swoop. It was like a reincarnation. Today, although his eldest brother Qi Yuanhua is no longer here, his son Still easily defeated his own son.

Qi Jiahua had an indescribable feeling. Looking at his son who was half sitting on the ground crying, he gently stroked his head with his hand and comforted softly,

"It doesn't matter, just try your best. No one has it easy. If you lose this time, there will be another time. As long as you are alive, you will have a chance to turn around? Just because you lose doesn't mean you are weak. It's just that Qi Yunxian is too strong. Didn't anyone else recognize Qi Yunxian's power?

There is no shame in losing to the strong, you should work hard towards this goal. "

Qi Yunpeng looked at his father with some surprise. For him, his father was not a person who would say such things. He would only keep asking him to improve, especially to be stronger than Qi Yunxian. This It has almost become an obsession of his.

"I understand, father! I will continue to work hard."

With his father's comfort, Qi Yunpeng calmed down and said firmly.

…

After Qi Yunxian left the courtyard, he returned to Huayang Cave Mansion, and unexpectedly met a few old acquaintances on the way.

It was Zhao Xiaotang, the eldest daughter of the Zhao family of the Qingzhu Chamber of Commerce, and the Qi family members accompanying her were Qi Tianqi and Qi Yi.

Originally, the best young generation of the Qi family were all preparing for the family competition in a few days. Only Qi Tianqi, a young bastard, had some time to receive the eldest lady of the Qingzhu Chamber of Commerce.

Otherwise, it would be Qi Tianqi and Qi Yi's turn to accompany such a person, and it would be almost the same if it were his brother Qi Tianyu.

Qi Yunxian wanted to cross directly, but was discovered by the sharp-eyed Zhao Xiaotang.

"Mr. Qi, what a coincidence!"

Zhao Xiaotang smiled and greeted Qi Yunxian,

"Hello, Miss Zhao. I haven't thanked Miss Zhao for letting Qi come back on your merchant association's merchant ship. Otherwise, I would still be hanging out on Qingzhu Island now?"

Qi Yunxian also said politely,

"Don't thank me for this. After all, you paid the price and did not follow my path. Next time, Mr. Qi can come to me directly. This kind of trivial matter is just a matter of convenience and there is no need to waste spiritual stones."

Zhao Xiaotang said pointedly,

"Then why are you so embarrassed? If someone finds out, you won't take me with you next time. I have something important to do, so I can't stay long, so I'll take my leave first."

Qi Yunxian finished speaking to Zhao Xiaotang, turned around and left without any intention of staying.

Qi Tianqi on the side has not said a word since Qi Yunxian appeared and kept his head down, for fear of attracting Qi Yunxian's attention. The last incident is still vivid in his mind. If his brother hadn't arrived in time, he might have really wanted to Suffer a lot.

After returning, his brother gave him a serious warning not to provoke Qi Yunxian again, no matter who said it, including that one.

Qi Tianqi also died down during this period, and had no intention of troubling Qi Yunxian again, because he was horrified to find that Qi Yunxian had injured his brother in a short period of time.

After returning that day, Qi Tianyu tried to get rid of the power of fire that Qi Yunxian had driven into his body. Unfortunately, it was not as simple as he thought. This external firepower would continue to devour his own spiritual power. He tried for a day and still could not get rid of it. Can be temporarily suppressed.

But he is not helpless. After all, this power of fire is just a rootless source. As long as it is stimulated all at once, it will be fine. But in this way, his hand gestures would be severely damaged, and the family competition was just around the corner, so this method was not advisable.

In the end, he lowered his face and asked Hall Master Qi Tianhe for help to completely remove the power of the flame. This also showed how powerful Qi Yunxian was. Therefore, Qi Tianyu has been practicing a spell to restrain Qi Yunxian in seclusion for the past few days. Qi Yunxian has already been identified in his heart as his biggest opponent in this family competition.

"This Mr. Qi is really an interesting person. Do you know Mr. Tianqi?"

Zhao Xiaotang had a panoramic view of Qi Tianqi's previous performance and asked curiously,

"We are not from the same family, and I am not very familiar with him, but this person has a bit of an extreme personality, and his parents happened to be dead, so it is better to have less contact. It is also dinner time, Qi Yi, room in Baiyun Building Have you made the reservation?"

Qi Tianqi casually said to Qi Yi who was standing aside, Baiyun Tower is the best restaurant in Baiyun City, and the owner behind the scenes is the Qi family.

There are twelve floors in total, and the sixth floor is where people who are cultivators of immortality are received. All kinds of spiritual food and spiritual wine are available. The lower sixth floor receives ordinary mortals, as well as various birds and beasts.

It is the best restaurant in Baiyun City.

In the entire Baiyun City, the separation between immortals and mortals is not obvious. The people living here are either the mortal relatives of the direct lineage of the Qi family, or the descendants of the foundation-building elders. Any family that does not have a relative who is an immortal cultivator is too embarrassed to go out. .

Therefore, it is not surprising to meet immortal cultivators on the street. Along the way, Zhao Xiaotang of the Qingzhu Chamber of Commerce also personally felt the power of the Qi family. The sea is open to all rivers and is inclusive. Compared with their loose Qingzhu Chamber of Commerce, it is much stronger. .

But there is nothing that can be done about it. Both the Zhao and Qing families have monks in the late stage of foundation building. As a result, the entire Chamber of Commerce now has two biggest mountains. If one party is not eliminated, I am afraid there will never be a day of true integration.
