"...Huh?" Ji Mofan almost thought he had misheard.
He felt that the person in front of him was seriously flirting with him.
Although water-elemental cultivators have always been the hardest to stand out among the five elements, many of them have their talents forcibly taken away and used as furnaces after they are discovered.
However, this is the Dao Asking Conference, and there are quite a few water-elemental cultivators who are protected and have the opportunity to appear here. Chaoming Palace sent two this time, and Yuncang Sword Sect also sent Lin Ju'an. Their appearances are naturally outstanding.
If you really want to be a pervert and admire a beautiful woman, you don't need to focus your gaze on him.
“My name is Nanxun,” the black-clad rogue cultivator said again.
Ji Mofan carefully searched all the memories in his mind, but he didn't know anyone with the surname Nan, let alone the name Nan Xun.
Nan Xun didn't seem surprised by Ji Mo Fan's bewildered look, and continued speaking, "The immortal once saved my life."
I really don't remember Jimo Fan.
He has always had a good memory, and he knows the names of every servant in the Yuncang Sword Sect like the back of his hand.
But he couldn't remember who he had saved.
It was something I could easily do, so I just saved him.
The reason I remember Ge Gen is because that kid was so persistent back then. Over the years, Ji Mo Fan has saved countless lives, and Ge Gen is the only one who would call him a god.
"Then why did you glare at me like that?" Ji Mofan asked.
That's why he came all this way to ask.
“I thought you would ask me why I hit him so hard.” Nanxun’s gaze slid to the tent surrounded by healers.
"What others do is none of my business," said Ji Mofan.
Nanxun looked at him with a hint of surprise. "Really? Isn't the Immortal Master Jimo the one I know most fond of meddling in other people's business?"
"Your information is far too outdated." Ji Mofan lowered his eyes and adjusted the silk sash around his waist.
More than half a year has passed since his rebirth, and he has changed his personality quite a while ago.
"That's fine." Nan Xun chuckled. "Those people don't deserve it."
"Wait a minute, when did I ever glare at you?" As he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something.
Ji Mofan was so perplexed by his question that he almost thought he had misjudged the situation.
Nan Xun touched her mask, her tone hesitant, "...Okay, maybe I'm just used to it..."
His words were vague, and Ji Mofan didn't press the matter further. He had initially thought this man would be a threat to him, which was why he had come specifically to question him.
Now that he's confirmed that he only harbors hatred towards the Yuncang Sword Sect and at most feels a dark longing for him, Ji Mofan decides not to waste any more time with him.
There's still the competition to go, and he hasn't fully deciphered the formation manuscript he received a few days ago yet. He wants to take another look at it as soon as possible.
“Immortal Master Jimo,” Nanxun suddenly called out to him from behind, “You…be careful.”
Someone wants you dead.
Ji Mofan paused slightly, frowning. "Of course I know. Over the years, countless people have tried to kill me."
Some people were tempted by his outstanding performance, while others were simply jealous of him. To put it bluntly, there were countless people in this very competition who wished for his sudden death.
This reminder is worse than none at all.
"No, this person is different..." Nan Xun seemed to want to say something but couldn't, and she even paced around in circles in her anxiety.
Ji Mofan tilted his head and stared at him, who was looking conflicted, for a while.
"The Supreme Venerable One?"
He didn't say it aloud, he just mouthed it.
Although this place is far from people, it is not a secluded spot, and it is hard to guarantee that someone won't hear it.
Nan Xunlu's eyes, which were exposed, were wide open.
"How...how did you know?" His tone rose and fell, filled with utter disbelief.
Ji Mofan's eyes dimmed slightly.
In just two days, three groups of people had already reminded him.
What happened? The Dao Seeking Conference in my previous life ended very normally, without any unexpected events.
If we're talking about variables, then the only ones are his ability to avoid an upset due to injury, and the uninvited Demon Lord Xiao Wangyan.
Was it a reminder to him...?
Or is it a conspiracy with ulterior motives?
Ji Mofan never underestimated himself. Even though his age and experience were far from those of the Supreme Venerable, he did not believe that he was no threat or value to the other party.
At least he could make the Demon Lord obey him.
How can you convince him that these reminders will bring him any benefits?
He would be wary of the Supreme Venerable One, and might even try to strike first to eliminate this threat...
No, that doesn't make sense; there are no vested interests involved.
The Supreme Venerable's strength is extraordinary, far surpassing that of most cultivators in the cultivation world. Over the past thousand years, many have entered the Mahayana stage, but those who can climb higher have mostly chosen to ascend. In this world, the Supreme Venerable is the absolute pinnacle among righteous cultivators.
His existence is of paramount importance, a pillar of stability in the cultivation world; yet it is also of a light touch, as he spends most of his time in seclusion in the cave of the Xiaoling Sect, remaining aloof from worldly affairs as long as no major trouble arises.
Ji Mofan had only seen him in paintings and portraits circulating in the marketplace at first, making him far less noticeable than the Demon Lord in the Demon Realm.
Even if there is an unknown force behind the scenes that pushed Ji Mofan to confront the Supreme Venerable, what good would it do to lose Qu Jin to the cultivation world?
The cultivation world is not the demon world, and the Supreme Venerable is not the only spiritual sustenance. This may cause a slight problem with the morale of the cultivation world when the conflict between the two worlds breaks out again, but what can really play a decisive role is the true strength of the two sides.
Moreover, given Ji Mofan's current strength, it's impossible for him to eliminate this threat through normal means; he'll most likely need to seek Xiao Wangyan's help.
What's the point? It just puts these two people up against each other earlier.
...Perhaps he needs to go and meet that Supreme Venerable One directly.
As Ji Mo Fan thoughtfully prepared to take his leave, he casually greeted Nan Xun. The latter, however, called him back, fidgeting with her fingers as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"You really don't remember me?" He pointed to the cauldron he used as a hammer.
Ji Mofan took a closer look at the cauldron.
It is no ordinary object; the intricate patterns carved on it are at least the work of a weapon refiner at the Nascent Soul stage or above.
However, judging from the fact that there were no medicinal residues on the bottom of the cauldron and no flame marks on the outside, this cauldron was probably never used for refining pills when it was made, and was always used as a hammer.
But Ji Mo Fan had no recollection of this thing.
Whether it's the appearance or the feeling of the crafted artifact itself.
As a result, Nanxun seemed unhappy.
He picked up the alchemy cauldron, turned around, and left, leaving Ji Mofan with only his back view, which he never looked back at.
Jimo Fan: ......
wack.
