On the warship deck, Ji Jiu Huo and Ji Yi Chuan were shocked. Shouldn't they be arrested and interrogated by Ying Long Wei? The Ji family hadn't committed any serious crimes.

  "This Yinglong Wei is probably a disciple of Xuelong Mountain." Ji Liuzhen transmitted his voice.

  "Ah, you've arrived quickly, in just a short while, you've come from the Snow Dragon Mountain Sect's main gate." Ji Jiu Huo also nodded.

  Their only enemy is also Xue Long Shan.

  Xue Long Shan being a large sect, it's normal for its disciples to become members of Ying Long Wei.

  "Is Dragon Guard handling the case?" A light and airy voice sounded, and a black-clad figure, Beishan Baiwei, walked down the stairs from the second floor of the warship. Ji Ning followed closely behind him. As he walked, Beishan Baiwei glanced at the red-clothed youth in the distant sky, "What case is Dragon Guard handling that they would dare to apprehend someone from the Ji family?"

  The red-clothed figure on the distant red cloud changed his expression as soon as he saw the young man in black.

  As the Dragon Warrior's guardian...

  In the vast land of Anping County, he was arrogant to the extreme, but when facing the Anping Hou Mansion, he had to restrain himself. If it were just some ordinary people from the Anping Hou Mansion, that would be fine, but Xue Hongyi saw through the youth's attire... and determined at a glance that the young man in front of him was a direct descendant of the Anping Hou Mansion.

  Inside the Anzhenhou Mansion, the hierarchy is strict, and so are the dress requirements. The black embroidered robe with the 'North Mountain' pattern on the cuffs in front of me isn't something just anyone can wear.

  "How did you meet the direct descendant of the An Banghou Mansion?" Snow Hongyi's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

  She hesitated for a moment. Xue Hongyi said directly, "I have been ordered to capture the wanted criminal 'Ke Bu'. I suspect that the wanted criminal 'Ke Bu' is hiding in the territory of the Ji clan and being shielded by them."

  "Can we capture the culprit?" asked Beimiao, a Northern Mountain disciple on the warship in a low voice. "Is there a military order?"

  "There." A black scroll suddenly appeared in Xue Hongyi's hand, and as it unfolded, there were words on it, which was a military order to capture the wanted criminal "Ke Bu", and the person who received the order was "Xue Hongyi".

  Bei Shan Bai Wei took one glance and saw it. This was indeed a genuine military order.

  He furrowed his brow and glanced at Xue Hongyi in the distance, thinking to himself that this Xue Hongyi was indeed not ordinary. As soon as he saw him for the first time, Beishan Baiwei had guessed that he must be a disciple of Xue Longshan who came to capture Ji Shi to take revenge! A dignified Yinglong Guard, dealing with Ji Shi was easy and effortless, but unexpectedly, he went to fetch a military order and then found fault, saying "the suspect is hiding in the Ji family", truly watertight.

  "What should I do?"

  "Should Dragon Guard follow orders?"

  Everyone in the Ji family was a little nervous. Ji Ning, on the other hand, looked at the scroll of military orders from afar and took another close look at the red-clothed youth: "According to Mu Xiao Zhenren's words, he became an Yinglong Guard during the late Wanxiang period. This red-clothed youth is naturally not weak either, and his appearance is that of a mere youth, it seems he is also a genius."

  The smaller the appearance, the more careful you should be.

  If a five or six-year-old child were to come here and directly shout for Yongwei to handle the case, that would be frightening.

  ……

  "I have been ordered to capture the culprit, would you mind making it convenient for me?" Xue Hong's attitude became even more polite.

  "I only saw the military order to capture 'Ke Bu', but I didn't see any orders to capture people from the Ji clan." Beishan Baimei said sternly. "I think you should retreat now."

  The red-clothed man on the distant red cloud was enraged, shouting: "If you want to commit a crime, just hide in the Ji family. I am the one who should be arrested by the Dragon Guard. Are you, young master, going to cover up for me?"

  At this moment, the name of Xue Long Shan is useless, only the signboard of Ying Long Wei is useful!

  "Fart!"

  Beishan Baiwei pointed at Xue Hongyi and scolded, "Do you understand the situation? Why did I appear here? Ask your people from Xuelong Mountain! Dong Fan Yu, aren't you going to see your sect's elder?"

  Deeply worried and fearful.

  "Dong Fan Yu." The red-clothed figure on the red cloud looked at him and also confirmed that it was indeed Dong Fan Yu. He had naturally understood the appearance of the Yan Shan branch disciples when he came earlier, but just now when passing by Xue Long City, he found that there wasn't even a single purple mansion cultivator inside. "What's going on? Why would this young master from An Cang Hou Fu be here?"

  "This young master of the Anping Marquis's manor is an envoy of the Anping Marquis's manor, and he has come to sign a transfer agreement with the Ji family."

  "Deed of transfer?" Xue Hongyi frowned.

  Bei Shan Bai Wei laughed and said: "You, Snow Dragon Mountain's disciples, including that Wanxiang True Person Xu Li. All of you were killed because of the struggle for this Yuan Stone mine... But now this Yuan Stone mine has been transferred to my An Ping Hou Fu. My An Ping Hou Fu will naturally protect the safety of the Ji family."

  "Don't just say you're handling the case, even if you have a military order to arrest members of the Ji family. You still need to coordinate with the upper echelons of Longwei and my Anfu Hou Mansion in advance." Beishan Baimei shouted, "Also, I want you to pass on an order to your Yuanshen Taoists at Xuelong Mountain. The Ji family is under the protection of my Anfu Hou Mansion! Let them understand their place!"

  Xue Hongyi gritted her teeth upon hearing this.

  "Good." Xue Hongyi immediately drove the cloud and transformed into a red light that quickly disappeared into the distance.

  If it were Bei Shan Bai Wei who wanted to help Ji Shi, Xue Hong Yi would still dare to fight with him relying on his identity as Ying Long Wei.

  But...

  If the other party is an envoy, signing a transfer agreement would represent the entire Anping Hou Mansion! The Anping Hou Mansion specifically requires protection in the Anping Prefecture, and even the Yinglong Guard is not allowed to disturb them. If there are indeed heinous criminals in the Ji family, they need to consult with the Anping Hou Mansion, and only after obtaining their consent can the Yinglong Guard make an arrest.

  ……

  "Thank you, young master."

  "Thank you, young master, for saving me, Ji Shi." The people of the Ji family looked at the red-clothed youth leaving and were overjoyed. Previously, when they heard "Yinglong Guard solved the case", they were all frightened.

  Ji Ning also said: "Thank you, Master Bai Wei."

  "I came to sign the transfer contract, and I should be protecting your safety." Beishan Baimei smiled lightly, "That Snow Hongyi, wearing the imperial robe of Yinglongwei, doesn't even know who she is! She's so arrogant in front of me, Anbang Houfu. Hmph! Just a Snow Dragon Mountain!"

  The Ji family and others heard this with envy.

  How tyrannical these words are, Snow Dragon Mountain is nothing but a vassal. To the Anping Marquis Manor, Snow Dragon Mountain is just a subordinate force. If the Anping Marquis Manor gets angry, it's not difficult to uproot the entire Snow Dragon Mountain. But for the Ji family, Snow Dragon Mountain is a huge entity, and the Anping Marquis Manor is an unimaginable monster.

  Three figures flew in from afar.

  Three figures swiftly landed on the deck, and they were indeed armored warriors. One of them respectfully said: "Reporting to young master, we have investigated this yuan stone mine vein, which spans over 4,000 miles in circumference and exceeds 300 miles in depth, with extremely high quality. There are also a large number of top-grade yuan stones."

  "Hmm." Beishan Baimei nodded in satisfaction, then smiled at Ji Ning and Ji Jiu Huo, "Ji Clan's Patriarch Ji Jiu Huo, and Ji Ning, you two come with me into the hall to sign the transfer contract."

  "Yes."

  Ji Jiu Huo and Ji Ning both nodded in agreement as they followed Bei Shan's hundred microcosms into the second level hall.

  ……

  On a table in the hall lay two scrolls. The words on the scrolls were exactly the same, all of them being standardized transfer agreements.

  The above one by one how to distribute, shelter Ji Shi and so on are all clearly stated.

  "Bring out the vassal decree of Wan Jian City. Leave a mark on it. And both of you sign your names." Bei Shan Bai Wei said. "I have already pressed down the great seal of An Fu Hou, just waiting for you two."

  Ji Ning and Ji Jiu exchanged a glance.

  Without hesitation, they immediately went forward and left their marks and names on two scrolls.

  "One copy of the contract belongs to you, and one copy belongs to our Anping Marquis's estate." Beishan Baimei said, "These are all formalities."

  Ji Jiu Huo Lian smiled and said, "This time we were able to overcome the great danger, my Ji family is already overjoyed. This yuan stone mine, 70% will be given to the Hou Mansion. My Ji family will keep only 10%. The remaining 20%, I am willing to give to you, young master. Thank you for saving my Ji family."

  Jiǔ Huǒ is after all an old fellow who has lived for nearly four hundred years, how cunning.

  He is very clear.

  This yuan stone mine. On the surface, it's said that three-tenths belong to the Guiji family, but in reality, they will still be subjected to some oppression, and it's better to directly offer it to a big shot, which can earn some human feelings.

  "No need to," Bei Shanbai smiled and said, "Ji Ning and I are old friends, you can rest assured that no one will bully this Yuan Stone mine. Whoever dares to rob my friend's things?"

  Friend?

  Ji Ning's heart warmed up.

  "I will arrange for some soldiers to be in charge of excavating the entire yuan stone vein." Bei Shan Bai Wei said, "At that time, you can dispatch some people from the Ji family to dig mines, and the excavated yuan stones will be directly handed over to the soldiers arranged by me here."

  "Good." Jiufei nodded in agreement.

  "Hmm." Bei Shan Baiwei nodded lightly.

  Ji Yu saw that the other party still had something to say to Ji Ning, and immediately said: "Nothing, I'll leave first." Then he retreated.

  Only Ji Ning, Bei Shan Bai Wei and two maids were left in the hall.

  "Ji Ning." Bei Shan Bai Wei said, "You have achieved so much in the Ji family, your natural talent far surpasses that Snow Hongyi. I advise you not to stay in this small place for too long, your true belonging is a much larger world. In the future, you will inevitably become a prominent figure in Anping County."

  Ji Ning said: "Bai Wei Gongzi is overpraising me, but I won't be able to stay for long, and soon I will go out and make a name for myself."

  "Hmm." Bei Shan Bai nodded slightly.

  "Ji Ning has always been curious," Ji Ning said, "May I ask how you arrived at the Ji family so quickly? My Ji family has a Yuanshi mine vein. Just sending news to the Ancheng Hou Mansion would take a long time."

  If it weren't for the arrival of the messenger from the Anping Marquis's estate, the Ji family would likely have even more trouble.

  "Hahaha..." Bei Shan Bai smiled, "Do you know how this yuan stone vein was formed?"

  "What?" Ji Ning asked in confusion, shaking her head.

  Bei Shan Bai smiled and said, "This yuan stone vein is a place where a yuan shen dao person has been secretly cultivating and closing up to break through the great array laid down by Bu. He absorbed the endless heavenly yuan energy from the surroundings, and only then was such a large yuan stone vein formed. And that yuan shen dao person also broke through and became a Di Xian."

  "Earthly Immortal?" Ji Ning was shocked, it turned out that the stone room was where the Earthly Immortal had stayed.

  "That Na De Xian is a Fire Dragon Immortal." Bei Shan Bai Wei said, "After he broke through, he was invited to my An Ping Hou Fu, and at the welcoming banquet, my father quickly learned that there was a Yuan Shi mine vein here, and also knew it was within your Ji family's territory. So I got this errand, to come and sign a contract with your Ji family."

  Ji Ning was stunned.

  It wasn't Ji's memorial that was presented, but rather something that the Anping Marquis' estate had known about all along. No wonder they arrived so quickly.

  "Well, that's settled then. I won't be staying here any longer. If you're heading to Anping City, Brother Ji Ning, do look me up. I'll have to treat you properly as a host." Bei Shan Bai smiled.

  "Definitely." Ji Ning replied.

  ……

  The Dragon Locking Heaven Formation on the Ox Horn Mountain has been withdrawn, and all the people of the Ji family looked up at the distant horizon, where the warship had already left, leaving behind only eight soldiers of the Zi Fu repair.

  "Cough." Ji Yichuan's originally formidable aura suddenly weakened, his face turned pale, and he started coughing.

  "Father." Ji Ning turned his head towards his father, Ji Yichuan.
