A man in the Qin Dynasty changed the world by collecting entries.

At this moment, she roughly understood that Bai Yuan's real reason for coming to Jimo City was because of Han Fei and Ni Lin.

Therefore, she was well aware that after the banquet, Bai Yuan and the others would likely go to retrieve the Reverse Scale and then return to Xiaoshengxianzhuang. She didn't know when they would return to Jimo City.

So they might not actually have time to shop around.

Bai Yuan saw that she looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated, and shook his head slightly.

"If you have anything to say, just say it."

Ji Mo Hua Xue sighed softly: "I was just thinking that Mr. Han Fei is really lucky to have such a caring uncle. Actually, Mr. Bai Yuan only agreed to come to Ji Mo City because he was worried about Mr. Han Fei, right?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yuan was slightly taken aback, then smiled.

“What you said is true. I did come to Jimo City because of Han Fei at first.”

Ji Mo Huaxue's eyes darkened slightly upon hearing this, but Bai Yuan had not yet finished speaking.

"However, besides Han Fei, there is another reason why I came to Jimo this time."

"There's another reason?"

"That's right, I actually came here for you too."

Bai Yuan looked at Ji Mo Huaxue with a smile, not like he was joking.

Upon hearing Bai Yuan say that he had come for her, Ji Mo Hua Xue was immediately stunned, a blush rising to her pretty face. She had clearly misunderstood Bai Yuan's meaning, thinking that he had come to propose marriage.

At this moment, Bai Yuan also sensed the dangerous aura coming from behind him. Without turning around, he knew it must be Ning Yan. He didn't know whether he should feel happy or not.

Seeing that the two had misunderstood, Bai Yuan immediately prepared to explain.

Just then, footsteps sounded from the side, causing Bai Yuan to turn his gaze in that direction.

After hearing from the servants that Bai Yuan and the others had returned, Ji Moxi felt very strange. How long had they been gone?

Fearing that Ji Mo Huaxue might neglect Bai Yuan, he hurried over. But as soon as he got to the vicinity, he heard Bai Yuan say, "I came here for you too."

He was immediately overjoyed; as expected, Mr. Bai Yuan was interested in his daughter!

Bai Yuan seemed somewhat embarrassed upon seeing Ji Moxi suddenly appear.

Ji Moxi wore a strange smile, having likely overheard most of what he had just said.

Not

After Bai Yuan explained, Ji Moxi immediately sent Ji Mo Huaxue away: "You go and rest first, I will entertain Mr. Bai Yuan."

Ji Mo Huaxue blushed and nodded slightly, glanced at Bai Yuan, and then quickly left.

Bai Yuan wanted to explain immediately, but Ji Moxi stared at him with a very special look, and for some reason, he suddenly felt like he was meeting the parents.

It's like he was secretly dating someone's daughter and got caught red-handed.

But he quickly realized something was wrong!

He didn't do anything, so why does he act like he's guilty?

He was just about to explain to Ji Moxi when he saw Ji Moxi looking at him with a kind smile.

"Mr. Bai Yuan, considering our age, I believe it wouldn't be a problem for me to address you as my nephew."

"Of course you can."

Ji Moxi is not a Confucian disciple, so there is no need for him to discuss seniority with Bai Yuan.

There's nothing wrong with addressing him as "my dear nephew."

“Then let’s go inside first, sit down and talk slowly.”

"it is good."

Bai Yuan nodded.

Once inside the room, the two sat facing each other.

Ji Moxi took a sip of tea and then said, "I overheard what my daughter and I were talking about just now, so I sent my daughter away so I could have a good chat with you."

Bai Yuan sighed inwardly; he knew it would be like this.

"Actually, you've misunderstood. I was just about to explain. What I meant was that I wanted to teach Ji Mo Huaxue swordsmanship because I believe she has a high aptitude for swordsmanship."

"Nephew, are you joking?"

Ji Moxi was slightly taken aback and narrowed her eyes.

He wondered if Bai Yuan was just being shy and making excuses.

Bai Yuan shook his head, his expression very serious.

"Miss Ji Mo Huaxue's appearance is indeed stunning, and it's hard not to be captivated by her. But what I just said is the truth, and I'm not joking. I came here hoping that she could learn swordsmanship from me. Her talent in swordsmanship is unparalleled in my life."

Upon hearing this, Ji Moxi remained silent for a while.

He knew he might have misunderstood Bai Yuan's meaning. Bai Yuan had no need to make up such an unreliable excuse. Perhaps Ji Mo Hua Xue really did have extremely high talent in swordsmanship.

This disappointed him somewhat.

However, it can be seen from Bai Yuan's words that he was not unmoved, but his purpose was very simple.

This is precisely why Ji Moxi thought highly of him, which shows that Bai Yuan is not a frivolous person. He not only saw Ji Mo Huaxue's external beauty but also paid attention to her inner qualities.

Looking at the sons of high-ranking officials who had previously come to propose to him, they were all only interested in Ji Mo Huaxue's appearance; they were simply vulgar.

Can you call that liking? That's just lusting after their daughter's body!

Scumbag!

In contrast, Ji Moxi grew to like Bai Yuan more and more the more he looked at him, and it wouldn't be bad to entrust Hua Xue to him.

Bai Yuan felt quite uncomfortable under his gaze.

Doesn't he believe what he's saying?

"Lord Jimo..."

“Nephew, is this what you call being too formal? Just call me Uncle.”

Ji Moxi immediately interrupted Bai Yuan, making him reorganize his words.

“Uncle, I hope you will consider this matter carefully. Miss Ji Mo Huaxue is exceptionally talented. It would be a great pity to waste her talent. With her talent, if she were to learn swordsmanship from me, her future achievements would be unimaginable.”

Bai Yuan, fearing that Ji Moxi wouldn't believe him, tried to persuade him again.

Ji Moxi waved his hand: "Nephew, I know you mean well, but I don't really care how talented Hua Xue is or how much she will achieve in the future. I just want her to find a good home."

"Uncle, matters of the heart should be based on mutual consent."

Ji Moxi stroked his beard, laughed heartily, and didn't press the matter further.

"Here's what we'll do. I'll talk to Hua Xue about what you've said and hear her thoughts. If she's willing to learn swordsmanship from you, I won't stop her."

Hearing this, Bai Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's only right. Then please ask your uncle to talk to Hua Xue properly. Perhaps she can ensure the prosperity of the Ji Mo family for a hundred years."

"Hehe, in that case, I won't disturb my nephew's rest any longer."

Ji Moxi smiled and shook her head, it was unclear whether she believed it or not, and quickly left.

After he left, Bai Yuan knew there was still one person he needed to deal with.

"that……"

"You don't need to explain to me, I believe what you just said."

Ningyan interrupted Bai Yuan, leaving Bai Yuan somewhat taken aback.

He looked into Ningyan's eyes and realized she was serious.

“Actually, you could just marry her directly. Judging from Ji Moxi’s appearance, as long as you tell him that you are interested in Ji Mo Huaxue, he probably won’t refuse the marriage. But now that it’s been clarified that this is a misunderstanding, Ji Mo Huaxue might refuse you.”

Ningyan continued speaking calmly, but her tightly clenched fingers revealed that she was not as calm as she appeared.

It's no wonder she couldn't stay calm if she advised Bai Yuan to marry another woman.

When Bai Yuan saw her like this, he couldn't help but smile and reached out to help her relax her fingers.

“I don’t deny that I was somewhat attracted to her, but the reason I wanted to teach her swordsmanship was simply because she had a high talent for swordsmanship. These two things should not be confused, so you don’t need to think about it too much.”

He was well aware of his purpose in coming here. Although he coveted the potential of a sword immortal, he would not resort to such petty tricks.

Moreover, even if Ji Mo Hua Xue ultimately rejects him, he will not suffer any loss, and may even gain a lot. After all, he was able to obtain a [Ji Mo Sword Style] worth 10,000 fragments from the system by spending 4,000 fragments, which is already a win-win situation.

Ningyan's face flushed slightly as he gently pinched her fingers, but she didn't pull her hand away, letting him hold it.

Hearing him repeatedly emphasize Ji Mo Huaxue's talent, Ningyan asked with some doubt: "Is her talent really as high as you say?"

Upon hearing this question, Bai Yuan replied earnestly, "Her true talent is no less than what I described! If there is one word to describe it, it would be 'the talent of a sword immortal.'"

Ningyan's pupils contracted slightly upon hearing this, clearly shocked by his words.

A talent fit for a sword immortal!

What kind of qualifications qualify for these four words?

She naturally trusted Bai Yuan's judgment. No wonder he valued Ji Mo Hua Xue so much; her talent was already beyond her imagination.

Time flew by. Bai Yuan spent the entire day cultivating in his room, while Han Fei also spent the whole day hiding in his room, lost in thought.

The next morning, the Jimo family mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers.

Bai Yuan had just finished cultivating when he heard a lively sound coming from outside.

He arrived at the front hall and saw Han Fei smiling and congratulating Ji Moxi on his birthday.

Judging from his expression, he seems to have figured it out.

Besides Han Fei, there are some other guests here, who are probably all here today to attend Jimoxi's birthday banquet.

Han Fei presented the exquisite jade ruyi he had purchased at great expense from the Qizhen Pavilion as a birthday gift, and Ji Moxi was overjoyed to see it.

He really liked this piece of jade, and it made him feel very proud.

Upon seeing Bai Yuan emerge, Ji Moxi revealed a slight smile.
