Protect Our Clan Leader

Ji Yanxiu sighed, "The requirements for inheriting the Codex are truly too stringent. Not only does it demand a high degree of aptitude, but also an abnormally high level of comprehension in both the Sword Dao and Formation arts, and even proficiency in mathematics. Frankly speaking, despite giving it my all, I only passed the first level and was eliminated at the second. Let me tell you about the first and second levels..."

As he spoke, he meticulously recounted everything he knew.

Although Wei Qingyun was very confident, he still listened very intently, and would specifically ask about any details he was unclear about.

At the end, Ji Yanxiu sighed again, "Young Master, this transaction I’m proposing is done privately, and my clan is not yet aware. Upon my return, those elders in my family will definitely not let it go easily, and might even respond harshly. Please don’t take any offense with my elders on account of the Codex."

His selling of the Codex was an act of sheer necessity, as his family was increasingly struggling to get by. But if this caused casualties within the clan, it would be putting the cart before the horse.

"Don’t worry, even if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would still try to constrain the head of household to avoid causing too much conflict," Wei Qingyun smiled, his gaze inadvertently glancing up at the sky, "After all, the laws of our Immortal Dynasty are not just for show. If things get too out of hand, not just anyone, the Master of Chaoyang wouldn’t let me off the hook either."

That person is a major figure in the Transcendent Void Realm, not to mention myself; even if the Old Master of my family personally came, he might not be inclined to show any courtesy.

"Then I thank Young Master Qingyun," Ji Yanxiu breathed a sigh of relief.
