However, Bai Yuan didn't seem surprised: "I guessed it. I should thank you for cleaning up my house."

Well, Bai Yuan's attitude left them speechless.

Helian Xiao said speechlessly, "Hey, you don't mean to say that you don't know what Bai Changxue and Bai Meng are doing when they go out, do you?"

Bai Yuan shook his head: "I know what they went there to do, but they betrayed me. I suppose one of you has already obtained that black box?"

silence……

Helian Xiao glanced at Meng Wanwan but didn't say anything.

However, the head of the Bai family seemed no longer to care about the truth, and simply smiled and said, "Aren't you all wondering about my attitude?"

Of course!

Almost everyone thinks that way.

However, the group looked at each other but didn't say anything.

Bai Yuan continued, seemingly oblivious to the fact that if you could understand the power of divine punishment, you would understand why I did this.

"Divine punishment?" Meng Wanwan asked in surprise, "What do you mean? Heaven's punishment?"

Bai Yuan looked at her and smiled, "It's you..."

Meng Wanwan frowned: "You know me?"

Bai Yuan nodded: "When you were born, I even wanted to send someone to kill you."

Meng Wanwan...

Alright, at least we've gotten to know each other now.

Meng Xiuyi frowned and asked, "How did you know about her birth?"

Bai Yuan laughed and said, "Of course I know. I know everything related to the Heavenly Punishment."

Meng Wanwan fell silent; she always felt that this woman was keeping her in suspense.

Bai Yuan looked at Meng Wanwan: "You don't believe me?"

Meng Wanwan was speechless: "I just want to know what this divine punishment you're talking about is, what business is it of mine whether I believe it or not!"

Seeing her indignant expression, Bai Yuan laughed heartily and said, "Alas, the Bai family hasn't had a baby born in a long time, and even if one were born, they wouldn't live to your age."

Meng Wanwan...

Thank you so much, but I always feel like you're cursing me.

Bai Yuan continued, "I'm not lying. Ever since the Bai family changed its name to the Bai family, the lifespans of Bai family members have become abnormal."

She stood up and looked at the memorial tablets.

The memorial tablet lists the date of birth and the date of death.

Indeed, very few people live to be fifteen. Especially boys; the oldest they seem to live to be no more than twenty.

Bai Yuan: "This is divine punishment, the most vicious punishment for the sins committed by the Baili family."

Helian Tengyun frowned: "So, what exactly did the Baili family do?"

Bai Yuan then turned her gaze to the rank in the corner.

She reached out and took out the memorial tablet, and only then could people see the name written on it.

"Bailichuan?"

Meng Wanwan was extremely surprised.

Bai Yuan smiled and said, "I've seen him in the painting, haven't I?"

Meng Wanwan nodded.

Bai Yuan: "Are there any other members of the Bai family?"

Meng Wanwan said, "And his younger brother, Baili Qing."

Bai Yuan suddenly understood, nodded slightly, and said, "I see."

Meng Xiuyi said, "The divine punishment mentioned by Patriarch Bai must be a punishment that comes from a miracle. I wonder what the Baili family did to warrant such a punishment."

Bai Yuan laughed: "You came here for this, didn't you? I received news that you have almost pieced together the story of Zhuting, but you are missing the second half."

Meng Xiuyi nodded: "The key part should be the second half."

Bai Yuan said, "You're right, the key point is indeed in the second half. However, unfortunately, I don't know what happened in the second half."

Before they could continue posting, Bai Yuan said, "When the head of the Bai family takes office, he receives a very strange order: the Bai family must never contact the Han family again."

"The fact that the Baili family and the Han family are related by marriage has probably spread throughout the entire cultivation world by now."

That's true.

However, they couldn't understand the Bai family's intentions behind this order.

Bai Yuan said, "However, there is something you will definitely like to know, and it concerns the Demon Clan."

Everyone's eyes lit up; they were all eager to know who in the Baili family had fallen to demonic possession.

The first person they ruled out was Baili Qing, because Baili Qing was a very stubborn person. In order to uphold his own principles, he led Zhuting through the world, enduring bloodshed and violence.

A person with such a firm belief in the Dao could never become a demon.

It shouldn't be Baili Chuan either. If it were Baili Chuan, the Baili family wouldn't have enshrined his memorial tablet in the ancestral hall.

Bai Yuan seemed eager to see their surprised expressions, so he smiled and said, "Although much of history has been buried in the dust, the Baili family's genealogy is intact. There is only one person whose name is missing from the Baili family's genealogy."

"That person was Baili Qing."

Meng Wanwan was stunned.

"How could it be him?"

Meng Wanwan's feelings for Baili Qing weren't actually that strong. But she still remembered the boy in the painting who mischievously made her call him "brother," and how cheerful he was.

Later, when Baili Chuan wanted to capture Zhu Ting and take him back, he was the one who tried his best to stop him. Even after being beaten by Baili Qing, he remained steadfast.

And then there's Baili Qing from the stories Shangguan Liuyue told. He was such a passionate person, his heart as clear as the sunlight.

How could someone like that become possessed by a demon?

Almost everyone was incredulous.

Baili Qing was arguably the only person who could make them change their opinion of the Baili family even slightly.

How could he possibly be the demon who instigated the war between gods and demons?

The most excited was Shangguan Liuyue: "How is this possible? How could Baili Qing be that demon? I've known Baili Qing for so many years, I know him best. He could never betray the principles in his heart. Even in difficult times, he and Zhu Ting persevered."

"How could someone as clear-headed as him be possessed by demons?"

Helian Tengyun could not accept this either.

After all, the war between gods and demons was related to the lives of the people lying in the ancestral home of the Helian family, which was the underground Fengling Town.

If Baili Qing is indeed a demon, then does that mean that hundreds of years ago, Baili Qing and Zhu Ting worked together to build the underground Fengling Town for Helian Xue?

And then it was destroyed by Baili Qing himself?

Those people who are so upright and virtuous are unwilling to believe it...

Bai Yuan laughed: "But... don't you think it's because he became a demon, and this ridiculous thing happened, that the Bai family was punished by heaven?"

"I'm also very curious about this matter. The ancestors of the Baili family left behind some clues in the house that can only be deduced through deduction. It just so happened that the Shangguan family was holding a painting appreciation event, and for some reason, the small black box that had been dormant for a long time suddenly lit up. So I asked Bai Changxue to take Bai Meng to the painting appreciation event. I thought if this was fate, then let them find some clues from it."

But to her surprise, things didn't go smoothly.
