Chapter 318: Communication Interception

Ji Bofeng used a communication jade slip to send a message to Patriarch Ji Zhen…

However, what he absolutely could not have imagined was that the interception Magic Array within Jixian Sect was always kept active.

The contents of all communication jade slips would be intercepted by the array.

At this moment…

Sect Master Wu Xinjue and Sect Master Xu Yongnian were in a great hall on Zhenyu Peak of Jixian Sect.

All Magic Arrays within Jixian Sect were under the jurisdiction of Zhenyu Peak.

Elder Shi Pin glanced at the two men with a cold expression, unlike the charming and alluring demeanor she displayed to the outside world.

She tossed a Jade Slip to Sect Master Wu Xinjue. After he finished reviewing it, his face darkened, and he passed it to Sect Master Xu Yongnian…

With a sweep of his Divine Sense, Sect Master Xu Yongnian's expression also turned ugly.

"What does Ji Bofeng mean by transmitting information about Xiao Fan?"

Sect Master Xu Yongnian asked, his face grim.

"I don't know… However, in the great hall, Patriarch Ji Zhen did indeed send a message to Ji Bofeng before he left," Sect Master Wu Xinjue replied.

It was common for transmissions to be detected, but it was impossible to discern the content of their communication.

Information about Xiao Fan was a secret within Jixian Sect.

The reason for activating the Magic Array was precisely for Jixian Sect to protect Xiao Fan…

And Ji Bofeng's actions at this moment had undoubtedly touched the reverse scales of the two men.

"How should we handle this? Should we seize Ji Bofeng first and interrogate him, or…?" Sect Master Xu Yongnian asked…

Xiao Fan possessed the Enlightenment Seed, and this matter absolutely must not be leaked.

Elder Shi Pin did not speak, sitting to the side with a cold face.

She would not participate in how this was handled; it was better to leave it to Sect Master Wu Xinjue and Sect Master Xu Yongnian to worry about.

However, this matter also made her very unhappy; after all, Xiao Fan was a Disciple she had taken a liking to.

"It must be that Patriarch Ji Zhen wants to deal with Xiao Fan. Ji Bofeng providing this information is likely to make Patriarch Ji Zhen reconsider. After all, the Ji Family has suffered such a huge loss; it would be strange if they could just swallow it…"

"Then what about us?"

"Do not intercept the information; let it be transmitted normally. Send people to keep a close watch on the Ji Family. If they have any unusual movements… our Jixian Sect is not to be trifled with."

"…"

Patriarch Ji Zhen and a group of Family elders had been away from Jixian Sect for half a day.

He was in a terrible mood!

His face had been dark the entire way.

All of this was, of course, because of Xiao Fan.

That little beast had extorted six hundred thousand Spirit Stones from him!

If the place today hadn't been Jixian Sect, and if Sect Master Wu Xinjue and the others hadn't been there, he would have slapped Xiao Fan to death long ago.

He had already decided that after returning to the Ji Family, he would send people to investigate Xiao Fan's background.

If there was no powerful backing… the other party would undoubtedly die.

Originally, Patriarch Ji Zhen's intention was that if Xiao Fan had obediently handed over the Azure Flame Art and honestly admitted his mistake, his Ji Family might have forgiven the other party.

But now… Patriarch Ji Zhen wished he could kill him immediately.

The communication jade slip in Patriarch Ji Zhen's Storage Pouch signaled.

Patriarch Ji Zhen stopped and took it out to check.

A moment later, his face became even darker…

"What kind of person is this brat?"

A murderous intent flashed in his eyes, along with deep concern…

Before Ji Bofeng left the Ji Family, he had specifically instructed him.

When using a communication jade slip within Jixian Sect, the content of the message could not be too detailed; a general summary would suffice.

For these large sects, possessing a Magic Array capable of intercepting communications was no secret.

Of course, the consumption required to activate this array was extremely staggering; even large powers would not activate it casually.

And Ji Bofeng's message in the Jade Slip was also very concise.

It only contained various events that had happened to Xiao Fan within Jixian Sect.

"This Xiao Fan…"

Although Patriarch Ji Zhen hated Xiao Fan to the core, for the time being, he really should not act rashly.

In Jixian Sect, he could see that the attitude of Sect Master Wu Xinjue and the others toward Xiao Fan seemed very satisfied.

Furthermore, according to the information transmitted by Ji Bofeng, this Xiao Fan was very strange within Jixian Sect.

After thinking for a moment, he still decided to temporarily abandon the plan to kill Xiao Fan.

After all, even if Xiao Fan had no other background as backing, just having Jixian Sect alone was enough to deter his Ji Family.

Moreover, the six hundred thousand Spirit Stones had already been given, and the Azure Flame Art had been recovered.

Killing Xiao Fan would be nothing more than to vent his anger!

After weighing the pros and cons,

he used the Jade Slip to send a message to Ji Bofeng: "Do not provoke this person for now."

After doing this, he continued his journey with the group of Ji Family elders…

On the other side, it was the same.

The message sent by Patriarch Ji Zhen was also intercepted by Zhenyu Peak.

Elder Shi Pin informed Sect Master Wu Xinjue and Sect Master Xu Yongnian of the information.

After some discussion among them, the message sent by Patriarch Ji Zhen eventually reached Ji Bofeng.

Inside the Immortal Cave,

after seeing the content of the message Patriarch Ji Zhen sent back,

Ji Bofeng breathed a sigh of relief, and the unease in his heart dissipated quite a bit…

If the Ji Family really did something and something went wrong while dealing with Xiao Fan,

then he, Ji Bofeng, would be a sinner of the Ji Family!

Whether it was Patriarch Ji Zhen or Ji Bofeng,

neither of them could have imagined that their communication content had already been intercepted by Jixian Sect.

Furthermore, their Ji Family had truly walked a circle around the gates of hell.

Although because of this matter, Jixian Sect would not go so far as to send a large number of experts to wipe out the Ji Family,

they could certainly manage to injure the Ji Family's foundation and teach them a lesson.
