The group was in high spirits and, without needing any organization from Ji Mo, marched in a grand procession toward Qi Fengyu's residence near the mountain peak.
Ning Weisheng initially wanted to maintain order, but his words carried no weight and no one listened to him.
Once again, I realized the gap between myself and Ji Mofan, which made me depressed. For the rest of the time, I stayed behind silently, pretending that I was invisible.
Ji Mofan was even more relaxed. He led Xihe at the back of the crowd, doing nothing while others charged ahead for him.
He's now learned how effective it is to use others as pawns.
From the mountain gate of Yuncang Sword Sect all the way to Qi Fengyu's residence, the journey almost traverses the entire Yuncang Sword Sect.
The group was quite large. At first, the group wasn't very big when they gathered at the entrance, but some disciples who had been drawn over to ask what was going on joined in after learning what they were doing. In the end, almost all the disciples currently inside the sect had arrived.
They weren't afraid of making a mistake. Firstly, Ji Mofan wouldn't lie so obviously. Secondly, even if something really went wrong, as long as they saw Qi Fengyu and sensed whether it was demonic energy or spiritual energy on his body, all the problems would be solved.
The riots escalated so much that even the elders had to rush over. But upon hearing the disciples' demands, they all fell silent.
Their demands are reasonable. For thousands of years, the Yuncang Sword Sect has always treated demonic cultivators the same way: expel them. There is no reason to treat him as an exception just because he is the young sect leader.
In the past, everyone would go along with him and flatter him, ultimately because they were generous with other people's money.
It was Ji Mofan who sought opportunities outside, and it was also Ji Mofan who repeatedly saved Qi Fengyu from dire straits within.
Now that Ji Mofan is gone, who would be willing to give their already limited resources to Qi Fengyu, who is neither a relative nor an acquaintance and only knows how to leech off others?
Ultimately, most of the disciples of the Yuncang Sword Sect are just selfish people who center their lives around themselves.
Among the group, only Elder Zhou Hengyu of Yifeng was restless.
Because Qi Fengyu had an accident that day, only he, Ji Mofan, and Qi Fengyu were present at the scene.
In fact, even he didn't know the specifics, since he had only left briefly and when he arrived again, Qi Fengyu's immortal bones were already in Ji Mofan's hands.
Afterwards, Qi Fengyu did not pursue Ji Mofan's intentions, but only asked him to help her claim to the outside world that she was only sick because of her inner demons, thus concealing the fact that she had fallen into the demonic path.
Zhou Hengyu was at his wit's end after being pleaded with by Qi Fengyu in tears. Besides, given Qi Fengyu's state at the time, if it were really revealed that he was no longer a righteous cultivator, he would be expelled from the Yun Cang Sword Sect, and that would definitely mean certain death.
Doctors have a compassionate heart, especially when it comes to children they've watched grow up.
Zhou Hengyu kept it a secret for him.
Today, he received a message from his disciple early in the morning, and he heard every word that Ji Mo Fan said at the mountain gate.
As an elder, he had nothing to criticize about Ji Mofan's behavior.
But as an elder, he felt that Ji Mofan's actions were rather heartless.
However, upon closer reflection, Ji Mo Fan really doesn't owe Qi Feng Yu anything.
Although he is called the young sect master of Yuncang Sword Sect, in reality, Ji Mofan has been in charge of most of Qi Fengyu's affairs over the past ten years.
Even Qi Yuan couldn't match his dedication.
Even so, Qi Fengyu has already given his immortal bones to Ji Mofan, so any grudges should be settled now.
Ji Mofan felt Zhou Hengyu looking at him.
But he didn't care.
Zhou Hengyu was unaware of his past grievances with Qi Fengyu, and he didn't blame the other party for having a problem with him.
Anyway, there are plenty of people who have opinions about him. If you're so capable, go up to him and beat him up directly. If you're not, just keep it to yourself.
There were only two servants in Qi Fengyu's courtyard, one deaf and one mute. They were completely dumbfounded when they saw so many people coming in aggressively, and stood at the door not knowing what to do.
Although the disciples shouted slogans loudly, when they actually stood at the door, none of them wanted to be the first to step forward.
After a long, noisy commotion, even the elders were at a loss. The crowd continued to make a ruckus for almost the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, until finally a white figure appeared above them.
Ji Mofan unconsciously tightened his five fingers hanging at his sides.
Qi Yuan hovered quietly in mid-air, her gaze sweeping over the noisy crowd, finally landing on Ji Mofan, who was standing at the very back.
Although he quickly looked away at Xi He beside him, Ji Mo Fan couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
Well, what can I say? After all, he's the one who's caused trouble at Qi Yuan's place again.
He felt guilty.
"What Chief Jimo said is indeed true." Qi Yuan spoke slowly and deliberately after everyone quieted down.
"It was because I saw that child was pitiful twenty years ago that I took pity on him and brought him back to the sect to take care of him."
"I lied that he was my blood relative because he was born weak, hoping that this would stop people from bullying him."
After those few words were spoken, the room fell into an eerie silence.
People who initially didn't fully trust what Ji Mofan said now had no doubts whatsoever.
After all, the person in question has come out to vouch for him, so what else do they have to doubt?
Having received confirmation, everyone refrained from shouting as excessively as before, out of consideration for the presence of the elders and sect leader.
In the end, Qi Yuan instructed two servants to open the door.
The two young disciples obeyed immediately, opening the door and rushing into the main room.
They can't handle so many people; they need to find their master quickly.
As soon as the two opened the door, they both froze in the doorway, dumbfounded.
The little mute boy reacted quickly and tried to run back and gesture to express something, but when he turned around, he was so nervous that he couldn't take a step and fell flat on his face.
The deaf boy was startled by his companion's fall and came to his senses, but he couldn't say anything, just kept pointing into the room, making "ah, ah" sounds.
Zhou Hengyu was the first to realize something was wrong; his medical instincts kicked in, and he quickly pushed through the crowd and rushed in.
Ji Mofan couldn't see anything from the outermost edge, and he didn't want to squeeze through the crowd, so he simply flew up into the air on his sword.
It is true that disciples below the rank of elder in the inner sect of Yuncang Sword Sect are not allowed to fly on swords.
But he's no longer a member of the Yuncang Sword Sect, so the sect's rules don't apply to his behavior.
The door, which had been slightly pushed open by the servant, was now wide open after Zhou Hengyu rushed through.
Light streams into the room, revealing the interior scene to all.
