"Senior sister, do you have a younger brother named Zhu Xian?" Ji Chen asked uncertainly.

Hearing his words, Zhu Ningshu was startled at first, then nodded, "Yes, my brother is very disappointing. He has caused me some troubles recently. It's really a headache."

When she thought of Zhu Xian, Zhu Ningshu couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Ji Chen and the others looked at each other, then said with a smile, "Having a brother like this is indeed a headache..."

"You also know my brother?" Zhu Ningshu was a little surprised.

Gu Si Miao then stood up and told the whole story, "To be honest, Senior Sister, last night..."

After hearing this, Zhu Ningshu finally reacted and her face was filled with astonishment.

She never imagined that the people who hurt Zhu Xian were Ji Chen, Gu Si Miao, and the Holy Maiden of Kunlun.

Originally, she was thinking that no matter what, Zhu Xian was her brother, and since he was beaten like that, she had to stand up for him.

Moreover, Zhu Ningshu also asked people to help track down the identities and origins of those people last night.

Who would have thought that it was Ji Chen and the other two people in front of him.

"I'm really sorry. I didn't expect that he was my senior sister's brother. If I had known this earlier, I might not have been so harsh." Ji Chen smiled slightly and clasped his fists towards Zhu Ningshu.

"Junior brother, there is no need to do this. This guy brought this upon himself. He is truly lawless and has brought this upon you."

Zhu Ningshu was shocked, but naturally she did not dare to be arrogant. Although in terms of seniority, Ji Chen and others had to call her senior sister, but in fact, the people in front of her were not inferior to her in terms of strength or talent.

This was the man who even dared to kill Qin Zhen, including Li Du, who had the cultivation level of a quasi-saint, but was defeated by Ji Chen.

In last night's conflict, Zhu Xian was only injured but did not lose his life. In Zhu Ningshu's opinion, this was a blessing.

"Since they are all misunderstandings, just clear them up. Senior Sister Zhu, I have heard about your younger brother. He does have some problems as a person. This time, your junior brother's action can be regarded as a lesson for him. You have to discipline him more in the future, otherwise you never know when he might really cause big trouble." Tang Qingman said.

She was one of the few people who knew that Ji Chen possessed ninth-grade attainments in the art of alchemy, and she also understood that Ji Chen, who possessed such attainments in the art of alchemy, was someone who should not be provoked.

Not to mention Zhu Xian, even if the Holy Lord of Zhu Family came here, he would not dare to be too presumptuous, and it is even more impossible for him to ask Ji Chen for punishment for Zhu Xian.

Becoming an enemy of a ninth-grade alchemist would be a huge trouble for the entire Zhu family.

Soon, the group sat down in the yard.

The Holy Maiden of Kunlun made another pot of tea, and everyone started chatting, and couldn't help but talk about the birthday of the Divine Emperor.

"To celebrate the 2,000-year birthday of the Divine Emperor, countless heroes and geniuses from the five regions of the world will come. The scene will surely be very lively."

"Have you prepared the birthday gifts? What do you plan to give?" Ji Chen suddenly asked.

Zhu Ningshu nodded and said, "I have prepared it a long time ago. I am here on behalf of the Zhu family, so I specially prepared two valuable gifts. This way, we can save face for our Zhu family. After all, the Divine Dynasty also sent two gifts on the ancestor's birthday."

"What about you? What are you planning to give?" Gu Si Miao turned her eyes and looked at Ji Chen.

Ji Chen smiled slightly and said, "I didn't prepare anything in advance, otherwise I wouldn't have rushed to refine the pill last night."

Hearing this, everyone present was startled at first, and then a look of astonishment appeared on their faces, "Are you planning to use the ninth-grade elixir you refined last night as a birthday gift?"

"Yeah." Ji Chen nodded.

"This……"

Tang Qingman couldn't help but ask, "Isn't it too expensive?"

As the third princess, she naturally knew very well what a ninth-grade elixir meant.

In the world of today, apart from Ji Chen, the only ninth-grade alchemist was the Holy Lord of Danzong.

Therefore, the ninth-grade elixir is extremely rare and is truly a priceless item.

"What did you say? The person who refined the ninth-grade elixir last night and triggered the elixir tribulation was actually Junior Brother Ji Chen?"

On the side, Zhu Ningshu was shocked when she heard their words.

"Please keep this a secret for me, senior sister. The only people who know about this are you who are present here." Ji Chen smiled slightly.

The reason why he released this information to Zhu Ningshu was mainly because of Zhu Xian.

After all, he was the second young master of the Zhu family, and he was severely injured by me. There was no way the Zhu family could pretend that nothing had happened.

In order to save trouble, Ji Chen simply let Zhu Ningshu know his identity as a ninth-grade alchemist, so that the Zhu family completely gave up the idea of ​​looking for trouble with him.

"Don't worry, Junior Brother. I know what to do."

Zhu Ningshu spoke with a serious expression, and then couldn't help but continue, "I just didn't expect that Junior Brother would be so secretive..."

"I really forgot to prepare the birthday gift." The Kunlun Saint suddenly frowned.

"I haven't prepared anything special. How about we go around the city later and see if we can find something that can be used as a birthday gift." Gu Simiao also spoke.

If it was just one person, they would just give it a try.

However, as one of them is the Holy Maiden of Kunlun and the other is the Holy Maiden of Zixiao, they also represent the forces behind them, so they naturally cannot be neglected.

Soon, night fell.

In order to give gifts to the Divine Emperor, the group left Qingshuiju.

In addition to Gu Simiao and the Holy Maiden of Kunlun, Ji Chen, Tang Qingman and Zhu Ningshu were also on this outing.

"Tomorrow is the birthday day, and I don't know if I can make it in time?" Gu Si Miao walked and stopped on the busy street, entered several shops, but was unable to pick out anything good.

Walking along the bustling commercial street, they soon learned a piece of news.

Tonight in Yongshun City, there will be an auction held in the south of the city. It is said that some good things will be auctioned at the auction.

After learning about this, Ji Chen and his group quickly changed direction and rushed there as soon as possible.

"This Cangyun Auction House is owned by a certain holy land-level power in Zhongzhou. There is an auction like this held every month."

Not long after, Ji Chen and others arrived in front of the auction house. Tang Qingman spoke and introduced the background of the Cang Yun Auction House to them.

There is already a long line at the entrance, and many people are entering in an orderly manner.

Under the leadership of Tang Qingman, Ji Chen and his party entered the venue directly from the VIP channel.

"It is the Third Princess who has come. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person. I will arrange a VIP room on the second floor for you."

Not long after entering, an old man who looked like a manager appeared and recognized Tang Qingman.

"Sorry to trouble you, Manager Zhang. These are my fellow apprentices from Qianlong Mansion. There are five of us in total. Please arrange a bigger room for us." Tang Qinglan said with a smile.
