"Mo Fan, don't worry about saving face for me, just tell me your true thoughts!" Xie Qingya also turned to look at him, "Let this old man know that he's not some hot commodity!"
Ji Mofan was driven to the brink of despair by the two elderly children.
After deliberating for a long time, he reluctantly found a reason to speak, "I have already changed sects once. If I change masters again now, I'm afraid I will be ridiculed by the world."
He didn't say who he liked, only that he would be hurt by this.
If these two people truly cared for him, they wouldn't have continued to bring up things that embarrassed him.
Even if that's not the case, at least for the sake of face, I won't make him do anything that would make him feel wronged.
This disadvantage wasn't something he made up out of thin air. When he left the Yuncang Sword Sect, many people who didn't know the truth sympathized with Shen Yun and belittled him as a disciple to the point of being worthless.
Ji Mo Fan will never again wrong himself.
Moreover, from a personal perspective, although he also wanted to continue practicing array formations, he did indeed prefer Xie Qingya.
Upon hearing his words, the two old children immediately fell silent.
Wei Qianmu realized then that he had acted impulsively.
How could they be provoked by Xie Qingya and force Ji Mofan to choose between the two of them?
No matter who he chooses, he will make enemies of the other person.
Fortunately, he was quick-witted and came up with a solution that wouldn't offend anyone.
Xie Qingya was satisfied with what he had been told.
Regardless of the outcome, and no matter what the old guard thinks of me, as long as my apprentice hasn't run away, that's all that matters.
"It was indeed my oversight, Chief. I apologize to you." Wei Qianmu had figured it out. He glared at Xie Qingya, and then readily apologized to Ji Mofan, a junior.
Hmph, it's all Xie Qingya's fault!
"Elder, you flatter me." Ji Mofan was startled and quickly bowed his head in return.
"It's good that you don't resent your master." Wei Qianmu lowered his head and then looked up, his eyes darting around, another thought popping into his head, "But if we can't be master and disciple, how about father-in-law and son-in-law?"
Ji Mo Fan: "...Huh?"
Wei Qianmu found his idea increasingly feasible the more he thought about it.
Why doesn't he just pick a suitable one from his apprentices to marry Ji Mo Fan?
Having served as an elder in the Chaoming Palace for hundreds of years, he has sent out at least eighty or a hundred disciples. How could he not find a suitable one?
“Come, come, tell your senior uncle what kind of Daoist partner you like? Your senior uncle will keep an eye out for you.” Wei Qianmu leaned closer again.
"What do you think of my two current disciples? They are about your age and have common interests."
As Ji Mo Fan watched Wei Qian Mu use the recording stone to show off his two true disciples from all angles, he felt his scalp tingle.
He racked his brains trying to figure out how to deflect the matter, "Senior Uncle, I've already been paired with a Daoist partner once..."
Wei Qianmu was already very happy to hear him call her "Master Uncle" instead of the distant "Elder," and she didn't take his excuses seriously.
"You mean that young sect leader of the Yuncang Sword Sect? The ceremony hasn't even taken place yet. Besides, your relationship with them has soured now, so it's not appropriate for you to go back, right?" He was still trying his best to persuade Ji Mofan.
"Besides, what's so good about that young sect leader? Apart from being a bit pretty, he's covered in all sorts of injuries and illnesses, and you'll have to take care of him in the future."
"If you follow my two true disciples, you don't need to worry about such problems. Your senior master will solve them all for you."
"No, it's not Qi Fengyu." Ji Mofan waved his hand. "Uncle-Master, didn't I go to the Demon Realm a few days ago?"
"During that time, I was forced into marriage by the Demon Lord."
"Now the entire Demon Realm knows that I am their Lord's Demon Queen."
The dialect of Jimo was not fully explained; only half of it was told.
He disrupted the coronation ceremony before it could even be completed, but it's true that the entire demon realm knows he is the Demon Queen.
"What did you say?" Before Wei Qianmu could even speak, Xie Qingya shouted, "The Demon Lord really married you?"
Ji Mo Fan looked up and saw two conflicting emotions surging in his master's eyes at the same time.
He was overjoyed; it was obvious he could now see the Demon Lord as his son-in-law.
Another concern was that Ji Mofan might suffer in silence because of the vast difference in strength between himself and the Demon Lord.
Moreover, the latter was gaining more and more favor in his eyes. He even felt that compared to the Demon Lord, Wei Qianmu's two worthless disciples were not unacceptable.
Sigh, Ji Mofan doesn't have real parents, so he still has to worry about these important matters.
Ji Mo Fan touched the tip of his nose, feeling somewhat guilty. "It's true, Master."
"It was an emergency, and I didn't have time to tell you."
"You..." Xie Qingya originally wanted to say that you should go to the Demon Lord immediately to ask for a divorce, as he did not agree to this marriage.
But then he changed his mind before he could say it.
If he brings this up and his disciple can't refuse, and he insists on going to the Demon Lord despite the difficulty, what will happen if he angers the Demon Lord?
In that case, it will be your own apprentice who suffers.
Judging from the way the young apprentice was, although he used the word "suppressed" in his mouth, he didn't seem to be unhappy about it at all.
Moreover, he had seen the Demon Lord interact with his disciple. Although he couldn't respect and love him like others, he at least respected Ji Mo Fan and wouldn't force him to do this or that. His tone wasn't condescending or bossy.
Whether Xiao Wangyan treats everyone this way or only treats Ji Mofan differently, the fact that Ji Mofan didn't suffer any loss in this relationship is already quite good.
