"So he's the egg the sect leader gave you?" Ji Mofan blinked and pointed at Xihe.
While Xihe was still dizzy, Xiao Wangyan grabbed him and kneaded him like dough, making the little nose squeaky and gurgling.
"A broken egg, which has been incubated for almost a hundred years," he said. "Several times I wanted to crack it open and fry it in a pot."
Why didn't I ultimately act on this idea?
Ji Mofan didn't ask, because he felt he probably didn't want to hear it.
It's probably a reason that's even more absurd than raising an egg, like "I'm worried that it won't taste as good as a regular egg when fried."
Ji Mofan could hardly imagine the scene of the Demon Lord, such a big man, holding an egg to keep him warm.
It's really strange to think about.
But... where did Qi Yuan get a Bai Ze egg from?
Moreover, Xihe himself said that his bloodline was not pure, and that one of his parents should be human.
This person is most likely the father, because according to the few ancient records about the demon race in the cultivation world, if they marry a partner of a different race, the mother's physical characteristics will generally be more passed on to the offspring.
...It can't be that the old man was young and impetuous, and over a hundred years ago he went and had a love affair with a demon, which resulted in a death and he had no other choice but to run to the demon realm to beg for a way out, right?
Although demons rarely come into contact with humans, the cultivation world also rejects these creatures with fur and horns.
In contrast, the demon realm, being human as well, does not exhibit such severe xenophobia.
Or rather, it's not that they don't reject it, but rather that they adhere to the belief that the strong rule and openly display it without any attempt to conceal it.
Hate half-demon? No problem, half-demon can beat him into submission.
Even a rat can ascend to a high hall if it is strong enough.
"So what are the Demon Lord's plans next?" Ji Mofan shifted his gaze from Xi He and looked back at Xiao Wangyan.
"Wang Shu staying in Qianhe Tower as such, it can't be just to heal her body injured by the lightning tribulation."
"It's because I knew that one day you would need me," Xiao Wangyan said. "I never expected that you would run off to the Demon Realm on your own without my noticing."
For no apparent reason, Ji Mofan recalled Qi Yuan's expression when he asked her about her background.
He said at the time, "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed."
...It's so annoying. Neither of them can say anything properly. He doesn't even know where he came from.
But how was this predicted?
He wanted to go to the Demon Realm because he had memories of his past life and knew that friction was bound to arise between the cultivation world and the demon realm. He resorted to this desperate measure as a precaution to quell the situation.
So if we're going to discuss this logic... then we can only say that Xiao Wangyan knew he had memories of two lifetimes?
After all, the two realms have been at peace so far. Occasionally, conflicts only arise in the southern border region and are merely personal disputes, not escalating to the point of a war between immortals and demons.
The matter of rebirth was too mysterious for Ji Mofan to discuss at length. However, since the Demon Lord before him showed no ill will, his next steps became much easier.
Although Xiao Wangyan was extremely unhappy after hearing his idea.
"Make me, the true self, appear before everyone at the next Dao Inquiry Conference?" His voice rose several octaves. "Isn't that unnecessary? If all you need to do is prove your words are true, wouldn't it be enough to have Xihe assume my identity?"
“No, it will give us away,” Ji Mofan said. “At the next Dao Asking Conference, the Supreme Venerable of the Xiaoling Sect, who has been in seclusion for a long time, will also appear. Sending Xihe there will probably not fool his eyes.”
Xie Qingya exclaimed, "Huh? The Supreme Venerable hasn't appeared in public for hundreds of years, has he? Why would he suddenly emerge from seclusion?"
"Perhaps it's because we've encountered some kind of bottleneck again... I also got the news from Li Jinchu." Ji Mofan shook his head.
Li Jinchu certainly didn't tell him these things. Ji Mofan only knew because he had participated in this Dao Asking Conference once in his previous life.
However, he was seriously injured at that time and could not even finish the entire conference, so he had to return to his sect to recuperate.
At the time, all that was known was that the Supreme Venerable One had quietly observed the entire conference and only appeared after the Heavenly Ranking was determined, and then presented awards to the cultivators.
He didn't hear any more news after that, and just assumed that the Supreme Venerable had been in seclusion for too long and was so bored that he went out to see what the little brats in the cultivation world had grown up in the meantime.
Fang Xian had given this highly respected elder a hard time when he won the top prize on the Heavenly Ranking.
Of the top three in the previous tournament, one was over the age limit, one fell out halfway through, and the other was seriously injured. His ranking at the top of the list can almost be considered unbeatable.
That plaque that indicated he was number one on the Heavenly Ranking was of no use other than proving that he had been there during this year's Dao Inquiry Conference.
I wonder if the Supreme Venerable One minded that a cultivator whose age was less than a fraction of his own was so disrespectful to him.
Ji Mofan didn't see it, after all, he died soon after.
It's uncertain whether this year's Daodao Conference will be affected by the chain reaction caused by Ji Mofan's rebirth, but Ji Mofan doesn't want to take unnecessary risks.
He can find a Demon Lord, so why settle for a fake one?
Moreover, Xihe is a half-demon.
The security for the Dao Asking Conference is always very thorough, in case of any accidents, since it gathers the youngest and most promising talents in the entire cultivation world.
