He heard that when the two first met, Bai Yuan was stunned and stared at his daughter for a long time.
If it were anyone else, he certainly wouldn't have been so polite, but Bai Yuan was different; he was actually quite happy to hear the news.
That's why Ji Mo Hua Xue was sent to entertain them.
He didn't want to sacrifice his daughter to befriend Bai Yuan; he just wanted to give them a chance to get to know each other.
Of course, it would be best if they could end up together.
Ji Moxi did this because Ji Mo Huaxue had reached marriageable age, and recently too many people had come to propose marriage, including some sons of high-ranking officials and ministers.
Having served as an official for so many years, he knew very well what kind of people these were, so he didn't want to push his daughter into a pit of fire.

Chapter 65 Not Human, But a Ghost? (Please Read On)
The streets were bustling with people, even more prosperous than when Bai Yuan and his companions entered the city yesterday, with vendors hawking their wares everywhere.
As Ji Mo Huaxue led Bai Yuan and the others on a stroll through the streets, she introduced them to the sights of various parts of the city.
After browsing for a while, Bai Yuan and the others were picking out items at a jewelry stall.
At this moment, Han Fei suddenly felt as if he heard a sound in his ear.
Bai Yuan noticed him lost in thought and casually asked, "What's wrong?"
"I felt like someone was calling me."
Han Fei turned his head to look in a certain direction, his gaze becoming sharp.
Following his gaze, Bai Yuan's expression changed slightly. The spirit of the Reverse Scale Sword had reappeared, standing on the roof of a house in the distance, holding the Reverse Scale Sword and watching them from afar.
This scene was witnessed not only by Bai Yuan and Han Fei, but also by Ji Mo Hua Xue and Ning Yan.
The Reverse Scale Sword Spirit made no attempt to conceal itself, but instead appeared openly before the group.
However, it seems that only those four saw the figure of the sword spirit.
"That person is so strange."
Han Fei frowned, feeling that it must have been this strangely dressed guy who had just called him.
Ji Mo Hua Xue looked at the sword in the sword spirit's hand, her heart trembled slightly, and she blurted out.
"That's their Achilles' heel!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Yuan couldn't help but glance at her, surprised that she also knew about Ni Lin.
That makes sense. He had seen before that the Reverse Scale Sword Spirit had also approached her and Ji Moyun. Perhaps they had been in contact with the Reverse Scale Sword Spirit before.
Han Fei was still a little confused and was about to ask when he saw the Reverse Scale Sword Spirit flee into the distance.
"gone?"
Han Fei scratched his head, feeling that he should follow and keep up with that person.
However, considering that Bai Yuan and the others were still there, he had no choice but to give up for the time being.
He recalled what Ji Mo Huaxue had just said, and it seemed that Ji Mo Huaxue knew that person, so he asked curiously, "Does Miss Ji Mo know that person?"
Ji Mo Huaxue did not answer his question, but instead looked around at the surrounding environment.
"This is not the place to talk. Come with me."
Ji Mo Huaxue led Bai Yuan and the others to a restaurant and asked for a private room.
"This restaurant is also owned by the Jimo family."
She explained to Bai Yuan and the others.
Han Fei seemed a little anxious and asked, "Miss Ji Mo, do you know anything about that strange person from earlier?"
Ji Mo Huaxue pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.
“I don’t know that person, but I recognize the sword in his hand. It’s the legendary sword, the Reverse Scale!”
"Reverse Scale?"
Han Fei didn't know much about swords, but he had heard of this particular sword before.
“That’s right. I also happened to see some records of this sword in an ancient book. It is said that this sword was once Guan Zhong’s sword. However, this sword has been missing for a long time. I didn’t expect it to reappear now. I am also very curious about who the person holding the sword is. He seems to be deliberately trying to attract our attention.”
At this moment, Bai Yuan smiled and said, "That's not a person."
Upon hearing this, Han Fei and Ji Mo Huaxue were immediately startled.
"What do you mean by that, Mr. Bai Yuan?"
"He's not human, could it be?"
ghost?"
Bai Yuan raised an eyebrow and nodded slightly: "You could say that."
Both Han Fei and Ji Mo Huaxue felt a chill run down their spines. As a girl, Ji Mo Huaxue couldn't help but move closer to Bai Yuan, trying to gain some sense of security.
Seeing this, Ningyan scoffed, "Was that the sword spirit just now?"
She and Bai Yuan had previously guessed that a sword spirit had approached Han Fei, and now this "Reverse Scale" just happens to fit the bill.
Upon hearing the words "Sword Spirit," Han Fei and Ji Mo Huaxue were both completely bewildered and looked at Bai Yuan, hoping for an explanation.
Bai Yuan didn't scare them anymore.
"It is indeed a sword spirit, the spirit of the Reverse Scale sword, and also the most powerful and compatible undead spirit among all the previous masters of the Reverse Scale."
"So, he really is a ghost!"
His explanation did not put Han Fei and Ji Mo Huaxue at ease; instead, it made them even more frightened.
"You don't need to be so scared. There's a difference between a sword spirit and a ghost. I fought him last night, and I'm sitting here perfectly fine, aren't I?"
"What? Martial Uncle, you fought him last night?"
Han Fei's eyes widened; he hadn't expected something like this to happen last night.
At this moment, he gradually calmed down. He could sense that the Reverse Scale Sword Spirit seemed to be targeting him, and Bai Yuan seemed to have known about this from the beginning, even more so than Ji Mo Hua Xue.
"What exactly is going on? Uncle-Master, do you know something?"
Han Fei looked at Bai Yuan, thinking that he must know some inside information.
Ji Mo Huaxue also stared intently at Bai Yuan, her fingers trembling slightly with fear inside her sleeves.
Bai Yuan no longer concealed the matter of Ni Lin and told them everything about it.
From the moment he discovered the aura of rebellion on them at Xiaoshengxianzhuang, to the great battle last night, Bai Yuan made some deletions, such as omitting the story about the kidney.
Han Fei and Ji Mo Huaxue were shocked after hearing this, but neither of them doubted Bai Yuan's words, nor did they ask why Bai Yuan was able to discover these things.
Han Fei simply asked with concern, "So, the Reverse Scale Sword Spirit is really after me?"
"Of course, did you notice the pattern on the hilt of the Reverse Scale sword?"
Bai Yuan raised an eyebrow and asked in return.
Han Fei frowned as he recalled the image of the Reverse Scale Sword, then suddenly realized, "It's the Xie Zhi!"
"That's right, the Xie Zhi, also known as the Renfa Beast, is a divine beast of the Legalist school. This sword is a Legalist sword by nature, a sword that symbolizes the rule of law over the world."
As Bai Yuan spoke, he looked at Han Fei with a slight smile on his face.
Han Fei naturally understood his meaning.
How could the sword of the Legalists possibly find a disciple of the Confucianism?
"Uncle-Master is right. Although I follow my teacher to learn, I should actually be considered a disciple of the Legalist school."
Han Fei readily admitted this.
This also explains why the Reverse Scale Sword Spirit would seek him out.
Because the owners of the Reverse Scale Sword have always been disciples of the Legalist school.
"Han Fei, I don't know whether the Reverse Scale Sword will be a blessing or a curse for you, but I do know that it will come looking for you again. Ultimately, the choice is in your hands. I hope you will consider it carefully."
When Bai Yuan said this, his smile disappeared, and his expression became very serious.
He knew very well that Ni Lin had truly decided on Han Fei; it was calling out to Han Fei and drawing him to it.
The sword spirit came to him yesterday, probably to tell him not to interfere with Han Fei's choices.
Hearing Bai Yuan's words, Han Fei understood that this sword was not so easy to handle. He nodded, indicating that he would think twice before acting.
Because of the incident involving Nizu, the group lost interest in continuing their shopping trip and went straight home.
Upon returning, Han Fei fell into deep thought and went straight to his room, saying he wanted to be alone.
Bai Yuan ignored him.

Chapter 66 Did they really like it? Despicable! (Please continue reading)
After Han Fei returned to his room, Bai Yuan turned his gaze to Ji Mo Hua Xue.
"I hope you can keep the matter of the reverse scale a secret for us."
The "reverse scale" involves too many things; if it's not kept secret, it will only bring endless trouble.
Ji Mo Hua Xue also understood this principle. If it was not handled properly, it might implicate the Ji Mo clan and bring them danger.
So she immediately nodded and assured him, "Please rest assured, sir, I know the importance of this matter and will keep it a secret."
Bai Yuan smiled and nodded, also believing that Ji Mo Hua Xue would keep her promise.
At this moment, Ji Mo Huaxue showed a hint of regret: "I was planning to take you all out for some fun today, but I didn't expect this to happen."
Bai Yuan waved his hand gently.
"You can't be blamed for this. The matter of defying the emperor's will is of great significance to Han Fei. In comparison, he can visit Jimo City anytime."
Ji Mo Huaxue fell silent after hearing this. Was there really still a chance to visit?
