"Junior Brother Ji, what did you see?" he asked.
Ji Yuze seemed to still be immersed in the scene just now. When Ji Mofan called him, he just turned his head blankly, his eyes wide and round, staring at him in horror.
After a long pause, he seemed to finally regain his ability to speak, as if he had just come back to his senses. "What grudge do I have against you? You're really trying to kill me."
Ji Mo Fan was completely baffled by what he said, and tilted his head in confusion.
Ji Yuze pointed at Xiao Jin beside him, his eyes bloodshot and his fingers trembling, "She's a jinx, whoever touches her is doomed!"
Ji Mofan blinked. "Speak like a human."
They are cultivators, and it would be very easy for them to use methods to curse others from thousands of miles away.
But Xiao Jin is just a mortal without any spiritual power, so Ji Yuze's words are too much for him.
“He’s just cursed with bad luck.” Ji Yuze gritted his teeth. “His mother died from a massive hemorrhage when he was born.”
Ji Mo Fanxin said that this cannot be blamed on a newborn child.
Ji Yuze didn't notice Ji Mofan's expression and continued speaking on his own.
"When he was less than a year old, his grandmother took him to see the neighbor slaughter a pig. The pig inexplicably broke free from the restraint of several big men and knocked his grandmother paralyzed."
"When I was three years old, my father went out hunting because I said I wanted to eat rabbit. As a result, before I even got home with the rabbit, I was struck by lightning and died."
"Afterwards, he was placed in his uncle's house for foster care. As a result, his uncle's two children were unwilling to share their chicken with him and instead rushed to put it in their mouths. During the Chinese New Year, the two of them choked to death on the chicken."
"Because he had caused the deaths of too many relatives, no one in the village wanted to associate with him. Only a little girl was willing to give him a bite or two to eat. But when this little girl was fishing with him while breaking ice, a fish that jumped out of the water hit her on the head, and she died a couple of days later!"
Ji Mofan initially thought it was probably just a coincidence.
But coincidentally, he later realized that this matter was a bit too unusual.
Not to mention how a domesticated pig could possibly escape the clutches of several skilled pig butchers and even knock people over.
After all, this was a man-made disaster, and mistakes were inevitable.
The weather for going out hunting, even if it's not clear blue skies, is unlikely to be a thunderstorm.
His father, however, was struck by lightning and died at that moment.
What happened next sounds reasonable but is actually absurd; everyone's death was both logical and unexpected.
Ji Mofan couldn't help but wonder, if Xiao Jin is so capable, why didn't she just kill Qu Jin?
Now is not the time to dwell on such trivial matters. He sighed, "What about the matter concerning the Supreme Venerable One?"
“The Supreme Venerable brought him back to the Xiaoling Sect two years ago.” Ji Yuze took a breath, his expression of fear and apprehension softening slightly. “After arriving, he didn’t participate in the Xiaoling Sect’s recruitment event; he was directly assigned to work as a handyman in the Supreme Venerable’s Hall.”
This was not beyond Jimo Fan's expectations.
Xiao Jin had never cultivated immortality, but his condition after emerging from the illusionary formation was much better than that of a real mortal, unlike someone with a mixed spiritual root.
There are no conditions to test his spiritual root now, but with Wu Qi as an example, Ji Mo Fan has every reason to suspect that the Supreme Venerable chose Xiao Jin not just because he was pleasing to the eye and efficient.
Otherwise, in the vast world of cultivation, there are countless people who want to work as servants in the Supreme Venerable's Hall, so why would he choose Xiao Jin, who can bring misfortune to those around him?
Moreover, Ji Mofan originally suspected that the Supreme Venerable had instructed Xiao Jin to go to the villages near Qianhe Tower and deliberately let the demonic beasts be corrupted by demonic energy, thereby harming the villagers there.
However, judging from Ji Yuze's account, this matter may have been just a byproduct.
The Supreme Venerable One had asked Xiao Jin to do something else entirely.
With this in mind, Ji Mofan directly asked Ji Yuze.
As soon as the question left his mouth, he received a resentful look from Ji Yuze. "You know about this too? I read through all his memories from childhood to adulthood."
Otherwise, he wouldn't even know that his mother died during childbirth.
He had no idea what kind of formation Ji Mofan had created. He felt like he had spent almost his entire life inside it. If it weren't for the small piece of paper in his hand with the formation pattern drawn by Ji Mofan flashing from time to time, making him shiver uncontrollably, he would have really gotten lost inside.
Jimo Fan was not at all ashamed.
Xiao Jin looks no more than fifteen or sixteen now. Even if we start from before he was born, it's only been a little over ten years.
Although he and Ji Yuze are not very old now, they have a long life ahead of them.
More than ten years might be significant for ordinary people, but it's nothing to cultivators.
Ji Yuze was almost driven to his death by Ji Mofan.
He shouldn't have stood up for himself in the main hall of Chaoming Palace that day, which made him a target!
That person is so petty!
Despite his resentment, he still honestly told Ji Mofan everything he had seen.
It wasn't that he was overly accommodating to Ji Mofan's requests; it was simply that... he felt what he was seeing was far beyond his comprehension.
Hiding it himself won't solve any problems at all.
After listening to Ji Yuze's hasty account, Ji Mofan frowned. "Xiao Jin buried something in a village on the border?"
Ji Yuze nodded, "My perception of time was flawed in the illusion. Based on my calculations, it should have been something that happened in the last few years. The last time I did this was three months ago, which was before the Dao Asking Conference started."
