Chapter 502: Funeral (1)Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the capital city, at the Ji residence.
The door to the Ji residence was currently wide open. There was a white canvas hung outside of the door and everyone was grim.
All the pa.s.sers-by could not help but stop when they heard the mourns from inside. Each of them were confused.
“What has happened to the Ji residence?” Some people who did not know about the situation questioned curiously.
Some who knew sighed, “It’s about the incident that happened to the capital inst.i.tute half a month ago.”
“What do you mean?”
“Half a month ago, wasn’t the capital inst.i.tute ambushed by the demon clan? This Ji family’s terminator Ninth Mistress Ji Fengyan was in the capital inst.i.tute. It was rumoured that she had saved many people using her abilities, such a pity…”
“So it was her? I also heard previously that there was an extremely brave student in that battle, but I did not expect it to be Ji family’s Ninth Mistress. Don’t tell me that the Ninth Mistress…”
“Sigh, the Ninth Mistress was highly sentimental. I heard that even though she had saved many people, she could not survive her severe injuries.”
After this sentence, all the pa.s.sers-by could not help but sigh. It was such a pity that a powerful terminator like this would die because of this incident.
In the main hall of the Ji residence, there was a wave of gloom.
Linghe, Zuo Nuo and the remaining guards were kneeling in the main hall. Their faces were extremely unpleasant and their eyes were filled with grief and confusion that was never seen before.
Ji Linglong, who was standing opposite them, had a pained look. She lowered her head as she looked at the memorial tablet that had Ji Fengyan’s name on it. Instead, Ji Qingshang, who was standing beside her, did not show any sign of sadness. There was even a faint smile in her eyes.
“Ji Fengyan’s death was really worth it. Even though she is dead, aren’t there many people who are still remembering her for her bravery?” as she said that, Ji Qingshang looked towards the pile of gifts that was at the side.
Those items were all sent by the students from the capital inst.i.tute who had received Ji Fengyan’s help. The funeral carried on for three days. On the first day, there were so many visitors to the Ji residence that the door had almost been broken. Those young men who had come to mourn were all filled with grief and had cried so much by the time that they left.
Ji Qingshang watched coldly during the three days and only felt that the situation was ridiculous.
Ji Qingshang’s words entered Linghe’s ears. Instantly, they were displeased with her and stared at her furiously.
But Ji Qingshang laughed indifferently, “Why are you looking at me? Don’t tell me I was wrong? Ji Fengyan’s death also had nothing to do with me. It’s just because she had thought too highly of herself. So many demons and yet she acted so rashly? Now that she was dead, she also caused the Ji family to lose its world-termination-armour. As a member of Ji family, don’t tell me that I can’t even say anything?”
The news that the capital inst.i.tute had met with harm only reached the capital city after a few days after it happened. Ji family immediately rushed to the place where the casualties were located and were prepared to fetch Ji Fengyan. Who knew that after they went there, they did not see Ji Fengyan at all and after asking around, no one knew whether Ji Fengyan was still alive.
After asking around, they then learnt that those who had survived were all relocated there. There were also those who were unable to survive from their severe injuries. If they were not found there, it was highly impossible for them to still be alive.
Ji family stayed near the capital inst.i.tute for a few days as they watched the casualties brought back by their family clan. When the guards that had stayed were about to leave, then they concluded that Ji Fengyan was likely to have met with a mishap.
