Without even needing to say anything further, Ji Mofan knew what kind of nasty nonsense Qi Fengyu was brewing the moment he opened his mouth.
Now I only regret not giving him a mute pill before waking him up.
"I will overcome my inner demons and won't cause you any more trouble!"
Sure enough, Ji Mofan didn't want to hear a single word he said.
Because he immediately heard the direction of the discussion among the disciples watching behind him change, and one by one they were mentioning that Qi Fengyu had been calling out Ji Mofan's name while unconscious a few days ago.
Without even needing to listen, Ji Mofan knew that these people would definitely follow Qi Fengyu's lead and guess that the inner demons he had were caused by his unrequited love for Ji Mofan.
Knowing that he couldn't achieve his goal, he still tried to annoy Jimo Fan with his words.
He took a deep breath, suppressing the churning air in his chest. "Whatever trouble you've gotten yourself into is no longer my concern. We're no longer fellow disciples."
"The one you should apologize to the most is Sect Master Qi Yuan."
Qi Fengyu suddenly tripped and fell to the ground again.
Ji Mofan narrowed his eyes.
His lips didn't move, but he actually wanted to force a cold laugh.
Trying to smear him?
Let's see whose heart can take it better.
If Qi Fengyu made him unhappy, then he would just keep mentioning Qi Yuan.
Ji Mofan's goal from the beginning was to lure out his inner demons and take control of his mind. How could he possibly let go of such a good opportunity now?
Qi Fengyu's teeth were almost crushed.
However, the black aura continued to emanate from his meridians, even entangling the iron sword in his hand in several ways, making each swing of the sword heavier than the last.
Damn it, if he continues to be so quick-witted, he'll be the one who suffers.
However, no matter how he looked at it, he was no longer able to pose a threat to Ji Mofan.
The only useful verbal attack was easily countered by him, and he felt that he was about to lose control of the inner demons in his mind.
He spat out another mouthful of blood onto the ground, and his vision went black.
Chaos surged before my eyes, and my soul felt as if it were being torn apart by two forces: one was this world, and the other was a vast, bottomless abyss.
Remembering Li Geyue, who had fallen into demonic ways and was publicly knocked off the Execution Platform by Ji Mofan, Qi Fengyu slowly tightened her grip on the sword in her hand.
Ji Mofan watched Qi Fengyu's actions, and even though he thought he understood Qi Fengyu well, he couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly.
Because he actually pointed the sword at himself without hesitation!
He wanted to sever his corrupted soul, even at the cost of damaging his own integrity, to get rid of his inner demons in a way that would harm both himself and his enemy!
Amazed by his decisiveness, Ji Mofan was stunned for a moment before reacting. Before anyone could react, he quickly drew his sword and flew through the outer barrier of the Execution Platform, creating ripples.
"Clang!"
The weapons clashed in mid-air, and Qi Fengyu's iron sword was knocked far away, landing with a clang on the other side of the Execution Platform.
Qi Fengyu's already weakened body was further disrupted by the interruption of his spiritual energy circulation, and he couldn't even stand up straight. His knees slammed against the hard stone slab with a thud.
Ji Mofan reached out a step too late and grabbed his arm, lifting him up from his limp state and placing him on her shoulder.
"Chief of Jimo!" Zhou Hengyu reacted a beat late and followed Jimo Fan onto the Execution Platform.
"I'm afraid the Execution Platform will be unable to effectively suppress the young sect leader's inner demons." Ji Mofan helped Qi Fengyu stand up, seemingly with light movements, but in reality, he didn't care at all about Qi Fengyu's body, which was in so much pain that he was sweating.
"Oh my! It's Ji Mo Fan who really cares about Qi Fengyu!" Peng Ruo, standing next to the Execution Platform, suddenly slapped his thigh loudly, "How come none of us reacted just now? If we had been any slower, your young sect leader might have been controlled by his inner demons and stabbed his own spiritual platform with his sword!"
Zhou Hengyu's mind went blank for a moment as he listened to Peng Ruo's words.
Huh? Was that what happened just now?
His angle was rather unconventional, allowing him to see the entire process of Qi Fengyu raising his sword. But the reason he didn't move was because he saw that the sword was clearly aimed at empty space.
At most, the strike would only cut Qi Fengyu's shadow dragging on the ground; how could that be considered aimed at his spiritual platform?
but......
Zhou Hengyu shook his head.
Perhaps he misread it, or perhaps from someone else's perspective, Qi Fengyu seemed to be about to stab him.
Anyway, regardless of whether there was any danger or not, the danger has now been eliminated.
Eliminate danger my ass!
Qi Fengyu looked at Zhou Hengyu's eyes, which had been blank for a moment before returning to calm, and almost wanted to shout out loud.
But he has no strength at all now, and even his limbs are numb, so moving a single finger is a luxury.
Clearly, the greatest danger to him right now is right beside him!
Ji Mofan supported Qi Fengyu, but he dared not put his weight on her at all.
He was afraid that the other party might take advantage of his poor condition and hide a needle or something to prick him, so that he wouldn't even be able to scream.
The inner demons were devouring his soul, and he could almost hear the chewing sound of the black mist gnawing at him.
The pain seemed like an illusion, or as if it came from all directions.
He knew that the most important thing he needed to do now was to calm his mind in order to resist his inner demons.
But with Ji Mofan standing right beside him, he couldn't help but be distracted by his actions.
His already limited energy was further diverted, and he even began to experience continuous tinnitus.
The buzzing noise was incredibly irritating to him, yet somehow a human voice managed to break through all the obstacles and reach his mind.
"The sect leader has always cared for the young sect leader, but now he... Elder Zhou, wouldn't it be better to keep it a secret from him?"
"Although Sect Master Qi Yuan said it was because of..., the young sect master is still his child."
"Qi Yuan..."
—Stop talking!
Qi Fengyu screamed desperately, but his voice couldn't reach his chaotic heart. The name Qi Yuan was like a fine spider web he couldn't escape, dragging him deeper and deeper into nightmares.
—Ugh, so annoying! Shut up! Shut up!
He may be a parasitic plant, but is this the fate he chose?
He didn't want to be like Ji Mofan, where as long as he stood there alone, fortune would rush towards him.
Ji Mofan doesn't need to do anything; he only needs to participate in the Dao Inquiry Conference to shine brightly, and everyone will regard him as a god.
But what about Qi Fengyu?
He had to spend a lot of time and energy trying to please others, struggling to climb up the social ladder with the little pity and sympathy they offered.
