Chapter 1007: Chapter 1005: Gospel (22) Chapter 1007: Chapter 1005: Gospel (22) After confirming that Fu Qian did not need a change of clothes, Ji Liushuang asked him to wait for a moment.
Moments later, the Ji Liushuang that emerged had changed into a different outfit.
Her previously convenient attire was replaced by a pristine white lace dress adorned with floral-shaped gold threads, conservative in style yet luxurious and elegant.
This style was rarely seen on Ji Liushuang. It was as though she was interpreting the concept of a Saintess in her own way.
At the same time, she looked unmistakably more like a tycoon’s daughter.
Of course, in Fu Qian’s judgment, there was very likely still a sword hidden beneath the long dress.
“Let’s go.”
Ji Liushuang herself seemed unaffected, nodding slightly to Fu Qian before leading the way.
…
“Liushuang, Professor Andiel, you’ve arrived.”
Clothes really do make the man, or in this case, the woman; although Miss Liushuang usually didn’t lose any color, her current attire almost had a commanding presence that momentarily made Fu Qian look like an attendant.
Proof of this was that the moment they entered, Old Master Ji Xun unconsciously put her title before his.
“Sorry to keep everyone waiting.”
Her tone was mild, but there was little sign of apology as Ji Liushuang gave a slight nod and sat down, then turned her attention to a strange new face in the room.
A male, apparently in his thirties, bore a striking resemblance to the other Ji Family members, with both hands wearing black gloves, smiling at her.
“Hello, Liushuang.”
As she looked toward him, he didn’t wait for an introduction but greeted her directly, full of the vicissitudes of life.
“You might find me unfamiliar, but I can recognize you at a glance.”
“You really resemble your mom!”
“I do not recognize you, how should I address you?”
Unfortunately, Miss Liushuang did not seem to want to share in his sentimental moment and asked directly.
Although due to communication with Fu Qian, she could roughly guess who this person was, she still chose to let him reveal his own identity.
It really is Brother Ji Ping!
At this moment, Fu Qian, observing this somewhat familiar face, also confirmed his speculation. It indeed was a storyline of the prodigal son’s return.
However, compared to last time, this person had changed significantly.
As a character lacking talent, who could only resort to Limb Attachment, the last time Ji Ping gave him a badge from the Rebirth Club, he was merely at the Middle Tier, capable of creating Illusions similar to Ashfall just through a grey eyeball in the palm.
And now, his progress was so rapid that he wasn’t overshadowed even by Ji Mingzhe sitting next to him.
So this was what impressed the Ji Family?
For the Ji Family to take such a risk, the “Rebirth Club” backing Ji Ping must have offered something of significant importance.
Such as a method that allowed members of the Ji Family like him to easily reach the level he currently possessed.
Though Fu Qian had his conjectures about the situation, he showed no intention of greeting the man.
…
Ji Ping, glancing at Fu Qian’s reaction from the corner of his eye, seemed unable to hide his disappointment and was forced to introduce himself.
“I am Ji Ping; by seniority, your mother would have to call me ‘uncle’.”
“After being away from home for so many years, I finally returned a couple of days ago. I wanted to play a joke on her but ended up frightening her a bit, and I still haven’t had the chance to apologize.”
Under Ji Liushuang’s scrutiny, Ji Ping maintained a smile, trying to downplay the nature of the previous incident.
“My intention was merely to show her a pleasing achievement.”
“What kind of achievement?”
Ji Liushuang asked earnestly, with no trace of emotion in her voice.
“A gain of immeasurable value to the Ji Family… Does Elder Lu still remember me?”
Not wishing to be led by a junior, Ji Ping gave a stunning yet vague answer before turning to look at the mask on Fu Qian’s face.
As he asked, the audience also turned their gaze toward him.
“Indeed, I remember.”
Fu Qian’s response came with a low chuckle.
“But compared to before, you’ve changed a lot.”
“The one who has changed more should be Elder Lu,” Ji Ping shook his head.
“During the Archipelago incident, I thought you had met with misfortune. Only later, when I continuously heard the news, did I realize you were unharmed and had even officially taken the step towards a Demigod.”
“Not just me, everyone else was also quite inspired… Did you hear about the recent news from Ye Island, the conflict between Yasui Corp and the Sirens?”
After the flattery, without waiting for Fu Qian to answer, Ji Ping turned to the others.
“Yasui Corp, originally having the upper hand, suddenly contracted its operations and switched to a defensive stance. Do you know why?”
“Did the Rebirth Club also play a part in that?”
This time, Ji Xun’s shocked expression was clearly genuine, as if he was hearing this theory for the first time.
“Of course!”
Ji Ping smirked coldly, barely concealing his pride for the organization.
“When I first heard it, I couldn’t believe it myself, but that’s the reality… If anything, Emperor Yasui, blinded by age, should never have messed with our people. After taking a heavy hit, he was forced to lie low, and even the Demigod he had worked so hard to sway defected again, causing a strong position to collapse in an instant.”
…
Is that so? Was that really the truth behind the recent conflict on Ye Island?
That seems too exaggerated!
As Ji Ping spoke, his eyes were almost always on Fu Qian, causing everyone to gaze at him as well, and due to the shocking content, exclamations broke out.
Regardless of his condition, Emperor Yasui was undoubtedly a Divine Envoy, a true Second Phase.
Even if Ji Ping was strong, he hadn’t reached that level yet, had he?
Not to mention it happened on Ye Island, a region under Yasui Corp’s tightest control, where there were far more High-Order Supers than just Yasui Shi.
Yet the anomalies with Yasui were tangible.
“Elder Lu, is this true?”
Finally, Ji Xun couldn’t help but ask directly, since in the conversation with Ji Ping, the latter had already openly accepted this title, so he no longer concealed it.
Hehe…
Amid the collective gaze, Fu Qian laughed strangely from behind his mask.
“It might be a bit disrespectful to say, but that youngster did quite well.”
That youngster… so it wasn’t even this person who acted? Was it someone even younger in the organization?
The more they talked about it, the more fantastical it sounded. If this were true, how powerful would the Rebirth Club be?

The amount of information in his words left even the boastful Ji Ping slightly stiff in his expression.
“It will be three months before you see Yasui Shi make an appearance again.”
Unfortunately, Fu Qian had no intention of elaborating, as he continued coldly.
And after three months, it will be the same.
Adding in his mind, he glanced at Ji Xun, intentionally or otherwise.
