Chapter 937 - 834: 9-Level Tower (Thanks to Fenghuang for the extra update with the monthly ticket)

Feeling her uncle’s resentment, Xiaosuisui quietly covered her face, turned her head to look at the lotus flowers, pretending not to hear her uncle’s words!

Ji Youze and the others smiled at her behavior.

Shaking his head, he laughed softly before speaking to Ji Youcheng.

"The situation is urgent, we had to bring you in to stabilize things a bit!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Youcheng’s expression turned serious. He hadn’t spent much time with his eldest brother growing up, so he didn’t know much about his brother’s temperament.

But he did see the seventh and eighth brothers grow up.

If it weren’t for encountering an unsolvable and extremely urgent problem, these two would not have had Suisui bring him in.

"What’s the matter?

Speak up!"

Ji Youze casually sat cross-legged, picked up the little girl, and looked her up and down; she had gotten thinner, with barely any flesh on her face!

"You’ve spent three years in Xiling, you must be quite familiar with its people and events. Do you know of any famous building in Xiling that suddenly existed three thousand years ago?

And still stands today!"

"A building in Xiling, suddenly appearing three thousand years ago and still standing, isn’t that the Nine-Story Pagoda of Buddhism?"

"Nine-Story Pagoda?" everyone said in unison.

"The Nine-Story Pagoda is at the foot of the South Mountain in Daqian Mountain, Xiling. There’s an ancient temple there, called Qingtan Temple!"

After Ji Youcheng said this, he suddenly noticed everyone had fallen into thought.

So, he furrowed his eyebrows and asked again.

"Why are you asking this?"

"Uncle, we’re looking for the Evil God, and want to ask if you know where the Evil God is sealed?"

"What did you say?"

Ji Youcheng forcibly resisted the urge to dig his ears.

His voice became somewhat sharp.

"It’s the Evil God Xun Heng, a great villain sealed by our ancestor! He practiced an evil technique and harmed many people!"

Xiaosuisui, in her confusion, didn’t notice the change in Ji Youcheng!

However, Ji Youze and Ji Youyuan noticed, and even Ji Youyuan squinted his eyes, scrutinizing Ji Youcheng.

"Third Brother!

Do you know something?"

Ji Youcheng suddenly looked up, meeting Ji Youyuan’s seemingly all-seeing gaze!

"B-Brother!

I-I know, but...not completely!"

"Hmm?"

Everyone looked at him with puzzled eyes!

"I only know that when our father left us, it was to rescue the eldest princess, but the people from Nanjiang who abducted her went towards Xiling!"

"What are you trying to say?"

Ji Youyuan hurriedly asked.

"Over the years, there had been no news of father. I thought he had either died or was trapped somewhere and couldn’t return. That’s why I travelled around to look for any clues, to find him.

But three years ago, I suddenly received news that when our father went to rescue the eldest princess, he appeared within Xiling’s territory, and that place was near the Nine-Story Pagoda."

"Father went to the Nine-Story Pagoda?"

The eyes of Ji Youyuan, Ji Youze, and Ji Youzhi collided in the air!

Years ago, Steward Liu had brought back his blood-stained clothes retrieved from the bottom of a cliff after he fell, so everyone said he died, and mother even put up a cenotaph and left the Capital City with the family in grief.

But now, how come the story from Ji Youcheng’s mouth was different?
