NIP Chapter 54 One Word Shocks Everyone
Chapter 54 One Word Shocks Everyone
The fact that Wushuang City, Tang Sect, and the Imperial Court joined forces caused all the guests present to fall silent, and even Ji Ruofeng was helpless.
But Li Jianyi's sudden words immediately brought the quiet banquet back to life.
"Young Master Li, why do you think Mr. Li from the academy will help me?" Ji Ruofeng's eyes gleamed.
Li Jianyi was the center of the storm, and he felt that Li Jianyi would not deceive him at this critical juncture!
He just didn't understand. Although Ji Ruofeng had some connection with the academy, it shouldn't be to the point that Mr. Li of the academy would oppose the entire imperial court for the sake of his Baixiaotang.
"Well... I just think Mr. Li from the academy is a really nice person, so I thought he might help Master Ji," Li Jianyi said with an awkward smile.
"Huh? The person is quite nice?" The guests present were dumbfounded.
Mr. Li of this school is indeed a good person, but why should he help you stand against the entire imperial court?
Doesn't Mr. Li at the school have anything to do himself?
Everyone was speechless. They thought Li Jianyi might have some kind of solution, but it turned out they just felt that Mr. Li was a nice person.
"Yes, I met Mr. Li from the academy in Tianqi City. He is indeed a very good person. He might not agree to help others, but I feel that he would definitely agree if Hall Master Ji asked him for a favor!" Although Li Jianyi did not explicitly say that Li Changsheng was Ji Ruofeng's ancestor, his words of certainty already indicated that there was a close relationship between Li Changsheng and Ji Ruofeng.
"Yes! Mr. Li is a very nice person! He even said he would teach me swordsmanship next year!" Xiao Hanyi, seeing that the crowd did not quite believe Li Jianyi, quickly stood up for him.
"Mr. Li is going to teach you swordsmanship, Hanyi?" Lei Jing was somewhat shocked.
Since the school exams in Tianqi City have ended, Li Changsheng has also made it clear that Baili Dongjun is his last disciple!
Unexpectedly, Mr. Li and Xiao Hanyi had a master-disciple relationship!
In that case, Xiao Hanyi and Li Changsheng would have a master-disciple relationship, so perhaps Mr. Li from the academy would really help Baixiaotang.
"Yes, that's what Mr. Li said!" Xiao Hanyi said calmly in the face of Lei Jing's shock.
"Alright, alright, then Hanyi, you must follow Mr. Li to practice swordsmanship diligently from now on!" Seeing Hanyi's adorable appearance, Lei Jing said with a smile of great satisfaction.
"Mmm!" Xiao Hanyi nodded obediently.
at the same time,
Ji Ruofeng pondered Li Jianyi's words repeatedly. Although Li Jianyi's words sounded like he was just saying "based on" the situation, the rest of his statement was a definite affirmation that Mr. Li would help him.
That means Li Jianyi has absolute confidence and evidence that Mr. Li will help him!
If that's the case, then why should he fear the so-called Peerless City? The Tang Clan? The Imperial Court?
Thinking of this, Ji Ruofeng quickly raised his wine cup, smiling as he greeted the guests: "Young Master Li's words have cleared the fog from my heart! Let's raise a toast today!"
As he spoke, he toasted Li Jianyi first!
Upon seeing this, Li Jian also picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Xiao Hanyi, standing to the side, also poured herself a glass of wine, intending to drink it all in one gulp.
But when Li Jianyi saw it, he snatched it away, saying, "Hanyi, you're too young to drink!"
After saying that, he downed Xiao Hanyi's wine in one gulp.
This scene left Xiao Hanyi stunned: "But Yiyi, we're the same age! Why can you drink, but I can't?"
"Because I am a master of the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm! I can use my internal energy to dispel my drunkenness. Can you, Hanyi?" Li Jianyi looked at Xiao Hanyi with reason and evidence.
Xiao Hanyi lowered her head and shook it.
"That's more like it! And what if you get drunk and someone kidnaps you, Hanyi? So I'll drink this wine for you!" Li Jianyi reached out and patted Hanyi's head.
Xiao Hanyi thought it made sense, so she happily poured herself a cup of tea and then pretended to drink it, sometimes frowning and sometimes smacking her lips, just like she was really drinking, which amused everyone present.
"Hahaha! Master Li's granddaughter is really interesting!" Wen Hujiu laughed as he looked at Xiao Hanyi.
Seeing this, Xiao Hanyi's face turned slightly red.
"Oh, you're shy now. I wonder which young master will benefit from this!" Wen Hujiu said with a chuckle.
"Indeed, Master Li's granddaughter will definitely be a top-notch beauty when she grows up!" Ji Ruofeng agreed.
As everyone showered her with praise, Xiao Hanyi instantly felt ashamed and secretly tugged at Li Jianyi's sleeve, hoping he would save her.
For this,
How could Li Jianyi turn a blind eye?
Then, he looked at Ji Ruofeng and said, "Master Ji, isn't today your joyous day of welcoming your daughter?"
It's been so long, and we still haven't seen today's real protagonist!
"Master Ji, are you unwilling to let us see your daughter?"
"Yes, yes, yes! I'll go and bring the little girl over for everyone to see!" Hearing Li Jianyi say this, Ji Ruofeng hurriedly went upstairs and brought down a baby girl who was still in swaddling clothes.
Seeing this, everyone crowded around.
The baby girl was already three months old. Her little face was rosy, and her eyebrows, which were already fast asleep, resembled a crescent moon. Her silver hair seemed to complement her eyebrows, creating a beautiful scene.
"Master Ji's daughter is quite remarkable!"
After seeing it, everyone was filled with emotion.
"Yi-yi, I want to see the baby too!"
Xiao Hanyi couldn't reach the crowd, so she had to ask Li Jianyi for help.
However, before Li Jianyi could come up with a solution, Ji Ruofeng had already stepped out of the crowd and held a baby in front of her.
When Xiao Hanyi saw the three-month-old baby, her big eyes were full of curiosity, and she couldn't help but pinch the baby's snow-white and smooth face with her little hands.
"So...so soft!" Xiao Hanyi felt a little incredulous.
As she pinched the baby, the little one seemed to sense it and suddenly opened its big, watery eyes, looking curiously at the young lady in front of it.
Then, she suddenly broke into a smile, melting everyone's hearts, making everyone want to rush to hug the little baby.
"Master Ji, does your daughter have a name yet?" Looking at the adorable baby, Wen Hujiu couldn't help but look at Ji Ruofeng.
"My daughter's name is Ji Xue!" Ji Ruofeng replied.
"Xiaoxue? No wonder she's all white. Look at her little face and her silver hair, she's really a sight to behold!" Wenhujiu clicked his tongue in admiration.
"Senior Wen is right, Xiao Xue is indeed very cute, being so small!" Li Jianyi stood aside looking at Xiao Ji Xue and agreed.
Little Ji Xue was indeed adorable and cute when she was a child!
"Really? Would Young Master Li like to hold Xiaoxue?" Ji Ruofeng smiled and placed little Ji Xue in front of Li Jianyi.
"With pleasure!"
Li Jian carefully took Xiao Jixue, then held her in one arm while using the other to tease her.
Before long, Xiao Jixue was amused and started laughing happily.
Seeing this, Li Jianyi's heart melted, and he couldn't help but say, "If Mr. Li saw how adorable his junior was, would he be reminded of his past self?"
As Li Jianyi lost control and inadvertently uttered those words, everyone who had just been chatting and laughing suddenly froze on the spot!
When they heard Li Jianyi say whether Mr. Li would think of his past self after seeing his juniors, they immediately recalled Li Jianyi's previous statement, which was made with certainty: if someone else asked Mr. Li for a favor, Mr. Li might not necessarily agree, but if Hall Master Ji went, then Mr. Li would definitely agree!
If what Li Jianyi said is true, and Ji Xue is a descendant of Mr. Li from the academy, then what reason would Mr. Li have to refuse his descendant's request?!
