It seemed that Ji Xian didn't care about Ji Hong's life or death at all.
He was eager to find Master Ling, wanting to exploit him, a Xuan-tier weapon forging master, for his own benefit!
Ling Fan's gaze lowered slightly, a cold sneer in his heart.
With his discerning eye, he could tell that this Ji Tianzong was not cut out for weapon forging at all.
Ji Xian's intention in having Ji Tianzong become his disciple was likely not to genuinely teach him weapon forging, but rather to leverage his reputation as a Xuan-tier weapon forging master.
It was probable that if the discipleship was successful today,
Ji Xian and Ji Tianzong, father and son, would undoubtedly use the title of disciple of a Xuan-tier weapon forging master to swindle and deceive everywhere!
At this moment, Ling Fan gained a deeper understanding of the shamelessness and disgust he felt towards Ji Xian and the entire Ji family.
Such a disgusting and peculiar family was rarely encountered, even by Ling Fan, who in his past life was a peerless expert, had traveled through the Ten Great Heavenly Realms, and had ventured into countless minor realms.
It was truly like the mother of disgust opening the door to disgust, taking disgust to the extreme.
Liu Han was still not giving up, wanting to steer the conversation back to how to rescue Ji Hong.
"Uncle Ji, let's discuss the matter of discipleship another day. Master Ling is so young; he doesn't need to take disciples to pass on his legacy. Moreover, for a forging master like him, taking disciples is not a trifling matter!"
"The top priority now is to save Ji Hong. Let's put everything else aside for now."
Liu Han said.
Ji Xian was not embarrassed and replied, "Heh, you're right. This matter of discipleship was indeed a bit abrupt. However, Master Ling, if you ever decide you want to take my Tianzong as your disciple, please tell me!"
"As for how to save Ji Hong..."
Ji Xian continued, "I think we should plan for the long term! Liu Han, you also know that Ji Hong colluded with demonic beasts to kill many strong individuals from the Ji family and the Beast Taming Hall of the Dark Martial Hall, completely enraging the Dark Martial Hall. Even if Master Ling intervenes, it will be difficult to make the Dark Martial Hall change its mind!"
"Our Ji family might not pursue it, but the Dark Martial Hall will not let this matter rest!"
"Since it's impossible, I think we shouldn't force it."
After Ji Xian finished speaking, Ji De, an elder of the Ji family and Ji Hong's third uncle, added, "My elder brother is right. This matter cannot be resolved! That brat Ji Hong deserves what he gets. He actually sided with a group of demonic beasts and used them against his own family. What kind of beast is that?"
Liu Han couldn't believe they would say such things. "Elder Ji! How can you speak about Ji Hong like that! Ji Hong was raised by those Black Ape demonic beasts since he was young, and you colluded with the Beast Taming Hall to trick him into leading you to hunt those Black Ape demonic beasts. This was your fault from the start!"
"I know Ji Hong's character. He is a sincere person who repays kindness. Those Black Ape demonic beasts raised him to adulthood, so he naturally considers them his family. How could he accept it when you tricked him into leading you to harm his family!"
Ji De sneered, "How ridiculous! They are just demonic beasts, what kind of family are you talking about? Ji Hong's family is us. I am his third uncle, and my elder brother is his uncle! I think this brat is ungrateful and a white-eyed wolf who cannot be tamed."
"You!"
Liu Han was utterly speechless by Ji De's words that twisted right and wrong.
"Alright, alright!"
Ji Xian interrupted them with a frown, "Master Ling is here. Let's not say these things. Family shame should not be aired publicly!"
"Master Ling, hehe, you must have found it amusing! It is a misfortune for our Ji family to have such a beastly scoundrel. However, his current fate is also well-deserved, so let him fend for himself."
Ji Xian said to Ling Fan, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Master Ling, since you are a Xuan-tier master, do you think you could give us a few Xuan-tier spirit weapons? You know, Xuan-tier spirit weapons are too expensive! They cost tens of millions, and our Ji family can't afford them even if we sell everything we have. If you could give us three or five of them, we would be extremely grateful."
Liu Han listened from the side, dumbfounded.
"What the hell!"
"I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone this shameless!"
Liu Han felt that today he had truly broadened his horizons.
He had been trying to seek their help in rescuing Ji Hong, but these people were so selfish, despicable, and morally bankrupt.
Thinking about it now, it was utterly ridiculous.
"You know how precious Xuan-tier spirit weapons are, so why are you asking Master Ling for them!"
Liu Han said angrily.
Ji Tianzong retorted as if it were natural, "Isn't he Ji Hong's friend? We are Ji Hong's relatives, so we are also equivalent to his relatives. What's wrong with him giving us a few Xuan-tier spirit weapons!"
"Moreover, since he is a Xuan-tier weapon forging master, forging a few Xuan-tier spirit weapons should be a simple matter for him. We are not asking for many, just three or five would suffice. We are not forcing him!"
Ji Tianzong's words were delivered with utter righteousness.
Liu Han almost doubted his own existence.
Could it be that his values were wrong?
Why could these people be so shamelessly righteous?
Seeing Ling Fan remain unmoved, Ji Xian, Ji Tianzong, and Ji De were all somewhat disappointed.
They had finally managed to interact with a Xuan-tier weapon forging master and were full of anticipation to gain some benefits from Ling Fan, but they had gained nothing.
Ji De was still not giving up and tentatively asked, "Master Ling, do you really not have any Xuan-tier spirit weapons on hand? If not, Yellow-tier ones would also be fine! But it would be best if they were high-grade Yellow-tier spirit weapons."
Liu Han could no longer tolerate it; he was on the verge of exploding.
At this moment, Ling Fan finally spoke, uttering a single word in a faint tone: "Scram!"
As the word left his mouth,
Ji Xian, Ji De, and Ji Tianzong were momentarily stunned, unable to believe their ears.
"Master Ling, you... what did you just say?"
Ji Xian wanted to confirm.
Liu Han couldn't hold back any longer and cursed loudly, "Go to hell! Get out of here, and quickly! Do you hear me now, you three scumbags!"
Ji Xian and the other two were stunned by the insult.
"Damn it! You good-for-nothing Liu Han, how dare you, a junior, insult us! Believe it or not, I'll go straight to your father and demand that he punish you severely!"
Ji De jumped up in anger.
Ji Tianzong glared at Ling Fan with ill intent.
This waste who was younger than him dared to tell him to scram, which made him extremely displeased.
He thought that since the relationship had soured, he might as well teach this kid a good lesson, or even kill him outright!
Just then, a powerful fluctuation of the late stage of the Profound Gang Realm suddenly erupted from Liu Han.
Ji Xian and the other two were greatly alarmed.
Even Ji Xian, the patriarch of the Ji family, showed a look of apprehension in his eyes.
Although Liu Han was his junior, his strength was far superior to his own.
The younger generation of the Ji family were all useless prodigal sons. They finally had Ji Hong, but they exploited him in every way, ultimately leading to this situation.
"I'll say it again, scram! Don't force me to act."
Liu Han warned.
