Fang Xiang sat at home with the maid standing beside him. He picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Opposite him, a thin man kept reporting news about the end of the season.

"It's been a week. He's been in Class D for a week now, and he hasn't missed a single day. This kid, hahahahaha, he's really ruined the Ji family's reputation."

In view of Ji Mo's glorious deeds, the young master of the first big family was so serious in class D that the Ji family's face was completely lost by him. Even the servants of other families sneered at Ji Mo.

The Ji family's reputation plummeted, but strangely, the Ji family did not send anyone to stop Ji Mo.

I don’t know what the Ji family is planning.

On the night that Ji Mo went to Class D for class, Ji Kongliang understood what had happened. Apart from the influence of other families, the most important reason why Ji Mo was assigned to Class D was because of Ji Qingshui's family.

As Ji Mo's guardians, they took the initiative to find the elder in charge of the matter, told the elder the known information, and tried their best to persuade Ji Mo not to return to Class A. It must be said that they did it. The elder thought the matter was trivial and did not interfere. Instead, he handed it to his servants to do. As a result, the servants had been bribed by other families and directly applied for Class D from the academy.

It has to be said that this was a great coincidence. The elder of the Ji family was not in the academy that day, but had gone to a distant place to do a mission. As an elder of the Fang family, he immediately approved this order.

He managed to enter Class D at the end of the next season without any reason.

After finding out, Ji Kongliang immediately ordered that the salary of the elder in charge of the matter be cut by 50%, all the servants involved in the matter be thrown into jail, let them die in disgrace, confiscate their property, and immediately send someone to talk to Ji Mo in his bamboo house, asking him not to go there again.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Ji Mo was taking revenge on the Ji family. Since they had humiliated him so much, Ji Mo simply lost all shame and dragged the entire Ji family into this.

Ji Kongliang could understand this matter. A teenager whose parents had died and who had no elders at home would definitely seek revenge after being humiliated like this. The fact that he dared to drag the entire Ji family into this showed that he was meticulous, courageous, had a good character, and was a talented person with great potential. However, the impact of this incident was too great, and he must be severely punished.

When the servants went there, they found that Ji Mo had already applied for protection from the academy and used spirit stones to purchase guards from other families. The entire bamboo building was airtight, and there were especially many sentries outside the door.

The servants could not enter secretly, and they dared not knock on the door and enter on their own initiative.

After the servant reported this to Ji Kongliang, the clan leader's face froze, and a hint of red appeared on his dry face. "This brat! Too arrogant!"

The academy does have regulations for protection in this regard, but this kind of thing is usually used when improving one's realm. Guards are asked to drive away birds and mice in the surrounding area, and also warn people around to stay away from this place.

But this kid Ji Mo now actively asked for protection, which clearly shows that he doesn't want to see the servants of the Ji family.

Although the guards were not strong, they were numerous and surrounded the entire bamboo building, so not even rats could get in, let alone servants.

Servants cannot sneak in, let alone go through the main gate. If they go through the main gate, they will be laughed at.

The elders were able to sneak into the bamboo building without alerting the guards, but who could bring themselves to do so?

Besides, such opportunities to make a fool of oneself are rare. It is possible that the elders of other families have been attracted here and are waiting for the elders of the Ji family to appear.

It is obvious that he does not listen to the Ji family's advice and disgusts the Ji family.

Ji Kongliang sighed softly: "He's a brat who doesn't know his place. You, go find Li Hengyou and let him talk."

There was no response in the empty room, only a flicker of fire, as if blown by the wind.

After that, after receiving the order, Li Hengyou took the initiative to find Ji Mo to have a deep talk, but it was of no use.

At the end of the season, everything went on as usual and Li Hengyou went to class D. However, because he didn't pay attention to the ground when he went out, he fell and got a swelling on his left cheek.

This kind of days lasted for a long time, and almost everyone got used to attending classes in Class D at the end of the season.

Under the Ji family's deliberate suppression, fewer and fewer people took the initiative to talk about this matter.

As the instigator of this incident, Ji Qingshui's family had their already meager salary cut by 70%, and their family's tavern in the mortal world was also taken over. If it weren't for the foundation they had hidden for many years, this incident would have made them lose everything and force them to get out of Baishui Mountain.

That night, Ji Mo returned to the bamboo house as usual. Looking at the floor that had not yet been wiped clean, Ji Mo chuckled, "Finally, I'm here."

Ji Mo walked into the living room and saw an old man sitting at the familiar old table. He didn't know this man, but he had seen his portrait. He was an elder of a different surname, in the middle of the third level. His surname was Mi, and his name was Mi Lin.

Ji Mo walked into the living room, pretended to look at the elder in surprise, and said in surprise: "Elder Mi, why are you here?"

Mi Lin smiled and pointed to the stool opposite him. "The clan leader missed you a little, but he's too busy to spare the time, so he asked me to come and see you."

Ji Mo sat on the stool, looked at Mi Lin with a smile, poured tea, and added another cup for Mi Lin. "Thank you for your concern, Chief. If it weren't for your favor, I wouldn't have achieved what I have now."

Mi Lin narrowed his eyes and laughed heartily, his gaze gradually turning colder. He didn't want to waste any more words on this boy who only had one turn. "Ji Mo, let's be honest. It wasn't the clan leader who arranged for you to enter Class D, and you don't have to complain about the clan leader. What you have done has seriously affected the reputation of the Ji family. According to our ancestral precepts, it wouldn't be too much to abolish you."

"However, considering your parents' death and the severe trauma you suffered not long ago, the clan leader will not pursue you further. But starting today, you can no longer attend Class D and deliberately discredit the clan."

Ji Mo nodded and smiled flatteringly: "Okay."

Mi Lin nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad."

In his heart, he felt even more contempt for Ji Mo. After all, he was just a child, and he immediately gave in when the ancestral teachings were mentioned.

Seeing that the matter was successfully concluded, Mi Lin got up and left.

Ji Mo walked to Lingtan and practiced in peace. The other party was not surprised. The [Hidden Qi Art] should have been hidden from him, which means it was a success!

Ji Mo didn't expect that the Ji family could endure for a week before sending someone to persuade (threaten) him. They really are worthy of being called a thousand-year-old turtle. They are really a tortoise.

But what Mi Lin said was very interesting. If it wasn't arranged by the patriarch, then who was it? There are only two factions in the Ji family now, either Ji Kongming or Ji Kongliang's lineage.

This is a really cool trick of shifting the blame and framing others.

It seems that the conflict between the two families is becoming more and more serious. Can I also intervene and gain some benefits?

Ji Mo shook his head and said, "I'd better practice hard. At my current level, if conflicts within the clan intensify and a war breaks out, I'll just be cannon fodder. I need to reach at least the third level before I can protect myself.
