Because this message wasn't sent by the family, nor from Ji Bochang.
It was from Liu Hongyu of the Liu Family.
In the message, Liu Hongyu told Ji Haoyuan that she has discovered an opportunity, and asked if Ji Haoyuan was interested.
If he is, he should go to the entrance of the Qiulin Mountain Range at the northern part of Nanning County in three days.
At that time, she would discuss the matter with Ji Haoyuan in detail.
This made Ji Haoyuan's eyes squint slightly.
Although he and Liu Hongyu, or rather, their Ji Family and the Liu Family, have currently reached a tacit alliance to jointly confront the ever-strengthening Zhang Family.
But likewise, from a certain angle, there remains an unspoken competitive relationship between them.
Would Liu Hongyu really be so kind?
Having found an opportunity, she still thought of inviting him along?
At least from his perspective, if the situation were reversed, Ji Haoyuan certainly wouldn't do the same.
Unless.
There was some reason compelling her to do so.
Thinking of this, Ji Haoyuan had already guessed some reasons.
At the moment, he kept the message, then turned to find Ji Yunfeng and others who were present, and instructed them on some matters.
After that, he didn't linger there for long, summoned the Crimson Flame Patterned Spear, and headed towards the so-called Qiulin Mountain Range.
Indeed.
Ji Haoyuan decided to go and see.
Since the other party casually mentioned having an opportunity to share with him, if he hesitated, wouldn't he be wasting her "good intentions"?
As for any possible dangers...
Nothing in this world happens without a reason.
If someone seeks you out, it certainly means they need you.
Wanting benefits without taking any risks, why should you?
Why should Liu Hongyu involve you?
Three days later.
Qiulin Mountain Range entrance.
This place is said to be located in the northern part of Nanning County, but in reality, it is not within Nanning County territory; it is a large mountain range spanning multiple county cities.
Among them, resources are abundant.
Yet rarely do cultivators usually venture here.
Especially those below Foundation Establishment.
The reason being none other than the numerous demon beasts present.
The deeper you go, the higher-ranked the demon beasts become.
Even for Foundation Establishment cultivators like Ji Haoyuan, entering the Qiulin Mountain Range requires caution.
If something terrible is provoked, even Foundation Establishment cultivators might find it hard to handle.
There could even be a threat to life.
At this moment.
By a large tree at the entrance of the Qiulin Mountain Range.
Liu Hongyu stood shoulder to shoulder with another woman, who appeared to be about twenty-six or twenty-seven, wearing a beautiful goose-yellow dress.
The two seemed to be discussing something.
But at this moment, both women's voices suddenly paused.
They simultaneously turned their heads, looking towards the distant sky.
There.
A figure enveloped in a crimson light was swiftly approaching them.
In no time, the figure arrived near Liu Hongyu and the female in yellow dress.
The escape light dissipated, revealing the face of the person inside, who was none other than Ji Haoyuan.
"Haoyuan Dao You..."
Liu Hongyu immediately smiled and stepped forward.
"Ah, Liu Dao You..."
Ji Haoyuan nodded slightly.
But soon his gaze fell upon the woman in the yellow dress beside Liu Hongyu.
Liu Hongyu immediately introduced with a smile.
"Come, come, Haoyuan Dao You, let me introduce you.
This is Feng Wanqing from the Feng Family in Danyang County.
Wanqing, this is Ji Haoyuan of the Ji Family, whom I've mentioned to you."
"Feng Wanqing of the Feng Family in Danyang County?"
Ji Haoyuan's face clearly showed a trace of surprise.
Obviously, Ji Haoyuan is not unfamiliar with the Feng Family of Danyang County.
Especially after his fight with Han Pengshan of the Han Family, he had a certain understanding of the several Foundation Establishment families in Danyang County.
Among them, the Feng Family was one he paid particular attention to.
Just because there seemed to be some irreconcilable conflicts between the Feng Family and Han Family.
The two sides have clashed countless times over the past ten years.
What Ji Haoyuan didn't expect was that he would meet Feng Wanqing, a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Feng Family, at this location.
It is said that this woman, much like him, demonstrated quite remarkable cultivation talent at a young age.
However, she did not face setbacks like he did but successfully established Foundation at an age under forty.
Her age should not be too great now.
This can be roughly judged from her appearance and the faint aura she exudes.
"Haoyuan Dao You..."
Feng Wanqing also proactively stepped forward, smiling and politely greeted Ji Haoyuan.
Clearly, Feng Wanqing was not unfamiliar with Ji Haoyuan.
Just as Ji Haoyuan understood the Feng Family, Feng Wanqing understood the Ji Family that recently had a direct confrontation with the Han Family.
Especially for Ji Haoyuan, who defeated Han Pengshan in the confrontation, she was well aware.
As the saying goes, the enemy of your enemy is your friend.
Almost in no time, the two quickly became acquainted during their conversation.
Their exchanges were quite polite.
After a small moment of chatting.
Ji Haoyuan finally did not forget the main purpose of his visit.
He turned to Liu Hongyu with a smile and asked:
"Liu Dao You, now can you tell me what the opportunity you mentioned really is?"
Receiving this question, Liu Hongyu and Feng Wanqing exchanged a glance, smiled, and nodded:
"Of course.
Have you heard of the Earth Profound Fruit, Haoyuan Dao You?"
"Earth Profound Fruit?"
Ji Haoyuan raised his eyebrows slightly.
Ji Haoyuan certainly knew about the Earth Profound Fruit.
It is an exceptionally rare second-tier Earth Spiritual Object.
Not only is it one of the main ingredients for crafting Foundation Establishment Pills.
But it is also a treasure that can enhance affinity with Earth elements.
Especially to cultivators with Earth Spirit Roots or those who mainly practice Earth Cultivation Techniques, it is a rare treasure.
There is even a rumor that when struggling to grasp a certain Earth Magic, consuming an Earth Profound Fruit may enable one to master that Earth Magic.
Of course.
The so-called Earth Magic here refers to the second-tier Earth Magic.
Now that Liu Hongyu suddenly mentioned the Earth Profound Fruit, could it be that her so-called opportunity is indeed related to that?
If that's true, it would indeed be quite tempting for Ji Haoyuan.
After all, he possesses Fire and Earth Dual Spirit Roots.
If he could obtain the Earth Profound Fruit, it would surely significantly enhance his Magical Power.
As if she saw through Ji Haoyuan's thoughts, Liu Hongyu smiled and nodded:
"I guess Haoyuan Dao You might have already guessed?
That's right.
The opportunity I mentioned before indeed refers to the Earth Profound Fruit."
