Ji Yuan Killed a Foundation Establishment Cultivator

Ji Yuan had originally thought the Yang Household would send someone to intercept them on their way back.

That was why he had brought out the Thunder Falcon Boat from the start, even activating the thunder falcon essence within it to return at full speed.

Fortunately, the Yang Household had not pushed things too far. The journey back was uneventful, right up until the two of them returned to Dragon Island.

By then, the sky was beginning to brighten.

After bidding Du Wanyi farewell, Ji Yuan returned to his own home.

Should I kill those people from the Yang Household?

Given Ji Yuan's current circumstances, killing someone from the Yang Household—specifically Yang Shunan—was indeed the most suitable choice. Killing him would not only fulfill the upgrade requirements for the [Meditation Room], but also resolve Du Wanyi's current predicament.

Judging by what Du Wanyi had encountered, that island lord from the Water Dragon Sect at the foundation establishment middle stage, Yang Yunxiang's second uncle, certainly knew nothing about it.

Without the Water Dragon Sect's protection, someone at peak qi refining would be putty in the Yang Household's hands.

Ji Yuan did not know whether Yang Shunan was aware of this. He only knew
