Although Shi Rusi did not know exactly what Qi Fengyu was planning to do, seeing the pitiful and pleading look on the other party at that time, even the hardest heart would melt in an instant.
Anyway, it's just a change of map, so even if something happens, it won't have much to do with him.
Not to mention that Ge Gen is perfectly fine now, and his complexion is even rosier than before he went on his training.
"After I arrived at the marker, I saw a Foundation Establishment stage demon beast that was sleeping," Ge Gen continued.
"You defeated him all by yourself?" Shen Yun's suspicious gaze fell on him.
Ge Gen glanced at Ji Mo Fan without making his eyes out, then nodded firmly. "Yes, I'm alone."
He also took out the inner core of the demon beast, with a faint water elemental energy swirling around it.
Shen Yun's gaze suddenly changed.
"How could you, a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator, possibly defeat a Foundation Establishment stage demon beast all by yourself?" He stood up without realizing it.
The gaze from above fell on Ge Gen, but the little boy was not intimidated by him. "Because that monster is injured."
"I don't know which cultivator abandoned the contracted beast with whom he had formed a master-servant contract in the Shallow Ocean Secret Realm. When I met him, he was weak and listless because of the backlash of the contract, which is why I was able to fight with all my might and defeat him at the cost of my own life."
"Since you're alright, why didn't you come to the meeting point on time to meet everyone?" Almost at the end of Ge Gen's sentence, Shi Rusi couldn't help but ask him.
If Ge Gen had appeared on time, he wouldn't have been forced to kneel here for so long!
Thinking of this, Shi Rusi felt his back straighten up, and he stood up, looking down at the kudzu root in front of him.
"Uncle Shi's words make no sense. Why would I voluntarily leave the sect's ranks?" Ge Gen blinked his big eyes, looking completely innocent. "Of course, it's because I was seriously injured when I challenged a Foundation Establishment stage demon beast, so I couldn't get here in time."
"I was taken in by my master. I had been staying at the Medical Peak for a long time, and it was only with great difficulty that I recovered from my injuries."
Ji Mofan couldn't help but want to laugh.
The child had always worn his emotions on his sleeve in front of him, but he was surprised that he could lie so fluently.
I was fooled by a child.
Shi Rusi was speechless again after hearing what he said. After a long silence, he turned around and cupped his hands towards Shen Yun. "Elder, since Junior Nephew Ge is unharmed this time, I request to go to Yiku Cliff for half a month to repent. What do you think?"
Shen Yun seemed somewhat absent-minded, not even giving him a proper look, and simply waved his hand casually.
"Master, are you sure?" Although it was a question, Ji Mofan's tone showed no intention of seeking the other party's opinion. He continued speaking on his own, "This matter is not just a simple accident."
“Junior Brother Shi has falsely accused Xiao Yu of having malicious intentions. According to the sect’s rules, false accusation is punishable by death. He should have his soul lamp removed and be thrown into the Execution Platform.”
Shi Rusi's face suddenly turned very pale.
He suddenly looked up at Ji Mofan.
But the latter didn't even glance at him, simply picking up the teacup on the table casually and taking a sip.
This person clearly knew that Ge Gen was safe and sound and was inside the sect, but at first he refused to say anything. He only brought Ge Gen out after Ge Gen had exhausted all other options and decided to spill everything.
Few people in the sect have committed serious offenses worthy of being executed, so many have almost forgotten that such a punishment exists.
"Senior Brother, I didn't make a false accusation!" If we really go to the Execution Platform, we'll be lucky to escape with our lives. Shi Rusi was still somewhat defiant before, but upon hearing about the real punishment, he immediately panicked. "It really was the map the Young Sect Master gave me!"
"What evidence do you have to prove it?" Ji Mofan paid him a little attention.
Shi Rusi gritted his teeth and endured for a long time before he was about to speak when Shen Yun suddenly interrupted him before he could finish his defense.
"Call Xiao Yu over." He sent a telepathic message to his handyman disciple, who obeyed and hurriedly ran to Qi Fengyu's courtyard.
"Stop arguing, all of you. Wait for Xiaoyu to come over, and we can talk face to face." Shen Yun wearily rubbed his forehead and sat down in the chair again.
Now that only one of the parties involved has arrived, and Qi Fengyu is absent, they have ultimately lost the upper hand.
“Master, didn’t you just say that such a small matter shouldn’t disturb Xiaoyu’s recovery?” Ji Mo Fan retorted, cutting him off with his own words.
Shen Yun choked for a moment, "...The situation is different now, so we should listen to both sides' perspectives to make it appropriate."
“Waiting here is pointless anyway, so why don’t you finish saying what you want to say, Junior Brother Shi?” Ji Mo Fan ignored what he said and turned to ask Shi Rusi.
"Xiao Fan!" Before Shi Rusi could speak, Shen Yun interrupted him again, "Are you trying to help others slander Xiao Yu by doing this?"
Ji Mo Fan was speechless at being labeled like that.
"Master, what you're saying is strange. What do you mean by 'other people' or 'other people'?" He rubbed his ears, taking it as a consolation for hearing a scoundrel speak loudly.
“Junior Brother Shi is an outer disciple under your peak, while Xiao Yu is the young sect leader. In terms of closeness, Xiao Yu is the one who should be called ‘other’.”
"Even the yamen knows to interrogate people separately, and they can't let people argue in the courtroom. Master, do you think there's anything wrong with what I did this time?"
Shen Yun opened his mouth for a long time, but couldn't utter a word.
Jimo Fan has blocked both the path of emotion and the path of reason.
Emotionally, he said Qi Fengyu was an outsider.
Logically, he said it was a normal trial process.
"...What's the rush? It only takes a quarter of an hour to get here from Xiaoyu's courtyard." In the end, Shen Yun could only change the subject.
Ji Mofan chuckled softly at this moment, "In a hurry?"
How could I not be anxious?
The voice, which had been smiling, suddenly turned cold in just a few words, as if ice shards could fall from it.
“If your disciple is not your master, there is a possibility that he may be assassinated, or that he may die. So of course you are not in a hurry.”
He then gave a chilling laugh, "Oh, wait a minute. I forgot, even if this happened to one of your true disciples, you still wouldn't be worried."
"What nonsense are you spouting!" Shen Yun nearly crushed the teacup in his hand.
This traitor! What nonsense he spouts in front of others!
His relationship with Ji Mofan has been strained lately. After failing to mend it, he gave up trying. In any case, Ji Mofan usually doesn't do anything outrageous in front of others.
But now, not only is there a kudzu root in the main hall, but there's also an outer disciple present! How could he possibly do this!
