However, he didn't notice that after he left the inn, a small figure also quietly slipped out of the inn.

"Niannian, are you sure the Baili family bloodline is nearby?"

As Meng Wanwan used the lightness technique that Nian Nian had just taught her to hurry out of the town, she asked Nian Nian a question.

Originally, she didn't want to investigate the Baili family so soon, since according to the strength levels of this world, she was only at the second level of Qi Refining.

The Baili family was, after all, a family that had produced a demon god, so she was still somewhat wary of them.

But just now, Nian Nian suddenly said that it sensed the bloodline of two Baili families.

Meng Wanwan couldn't hold back any longer. She could choose not to provoke them, but surely she could at least take a look?

Moreover, according to what Niannian said, the distance doesn't seem to be very far.

So, she ran out after Meng Xiuyi left.

The direction Niannian pointed was in a grove of trees east of the town. The town wasn't big, so the two of them arrived quickly.

By this time, it was already dark, and there was no wind, but something seemed to be howling in the bamboo forest.

As she approached the bamboo forest, Meng Wanwan sensed a fluctuation of spiritual energy.

Meng Wanwan slammed on the brakes, and because she did so so suddenly, her face hit a pillar and bounced back from the bamboo.

Meng Wanwan touched her sore spot from being flicked, and was about to complain when a huge black sword descended from the sky and planted itself in front of her.

Meng Wanwan: "..."

Thank you so much, Uncle Bamboo.

Niannian's voice suddenly rang out.

“Read the encyclopedia: Helian Xiao, early stage of Golden Core cultivation, sixteen years old, young master of Xiaoshan You, weapon: Sky-Supporting Black Sword, oh, that is, the one in front of you, Master.”

Meng Wanwan clicked her tongue in amazement. Another genius, and an unparalleled genius at that!

"Bai Meng, Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivation, forty-nine years old, direct descendant of the Bai family."

Huh? It really is the Bai family.

Meng Wanwan nodded inwardly, and was just about to ask what was going on when she heard Niannian's voice change.

"Master... Bai Changxue, mid-Nascent Soul stage! Run! He's coming..."

Meng Wanwan's eyes widened suddenly, and her body reacted even faster, kicking her little feet and quickly retreating.

The moment she left her spot, a young man in red descended from the sky and punched a domineering spiritual force that was heading straight for Meng Wanwan.

The two spiritual energies collided, and the waves of spiritual energy surged outwards, directly hitting Meng Wanwan.

Meng Wanwan was sent flying backward, feeling an extreme pressure in her chest that felt like it was crushing her internal organs.

The next moment, she felt a cool sensation between her eyebrows, her body felt light, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Ah!" Meng Wanwan said as she lay on the ground, spitting out blood.

Niannian: "You scared me to death, sob sob sob."

Meng Wanwan rolled her eyes: "What's there to be afraid of? As long as I don't die, I'm making a profit. Isn't that what you said?"

Niannian: "But I'm also afraid of pain."

Meng Wanwan: "So, what do we do now?"

Niannian: "Let's lie down. What if that wicked old man Bai Changxue finds out we're still awake and tries to kill us again?"

Meng Wanwan exclaimed excitedly, "But I want to see them fight! Didn't you see? Helian Xiao's back view is so handsome! Think of a way!"

Niannian: "..."

Meng Wanwan: "How many more hits can I take?"

Niannian: "Only once at most, any more than that..."

Before it could finish speaking, Meng Wanwan had already gotten up and climbed up a nearby big tree.

He even found a relatively spacious tree branch, lay down, and pretended to have been knocked down and landed on the tree.

Niannian: "..."

Meng Wanwan spat out another mouthful of blood: "The view here is really good, but there are a lot of leaves."

No sooner had she finished speaking than a fierce gust of wind shaved half of the leaf off the tree.

Niannian: "Please stop talking, I beg you."

Meng Wanwan retorted, "What does this have to do with me...?"

"Whoosh—"

Another half was cut off.

Meng Wanwan shrank back and asked weakly, "Relationship?"

At that moment, a deep voice came from the air.

"Who are you, fellow Daoist, here? You appear and disappear so often, are you hiding something?"

It was already evening when Meng Wanwan left home, and now it's night.

It's normal for ordinary people to not be able to see people clearly, but for cultivators, there is no such thing as not being able to see people clearly.

Therefore, the person speaking genuinely suspects that others are present.

At that moment, the boy's voice rang out.

"What? Elder Bai can't beat me, so you're going to talk about other things? You just eliminated a child, where are you going to find anyone else?"

"Oh, by the way, Elder Bai even eliminated the toddler from earlier. Such ruthless and vicious methods truly do justice to the Baili family's reputation!"

The boy's voice was clear and bright, without a trace of gloom in it; rather, it sounded like he was genuinely joking.

Bai Changxue's voice was filled with anger: "Helian Xiao, are you done yet? You chased us all the way here, what exactly do you want? I believe that the Bai family has been very low-key all these years, and we have done nothing to wrong your Xiaoshanyou."

Helian Xiao was also standing on a tree branch, with his back to Meng Wanwan, which blocked Bai Changxue.

With a massive black sword slung over his shoulder and one hand on his hip, he laughed loudly: "Old man Bai, you don't actually think you can wash away your sins by keeping a low profile, do you? Huh? Hahahaha!"

"The sins committed by the direct descendants of the Baili family must be repaid in blood. However, I'm in a good mood today, so you and that little good-for-nothing from the Bai family can leave after you put your things down."

At this moment, a figure in white stumbled out of the bamboo forest and came to the tree where Bai Changxue was. Meng Wanwan looked closely and realized that it was a girl in white.

"Is this Bai Meng?" Meng Wanwan asked Niannian.

Niannian: "Yes, yes, it's her."

Meng Wanwan asked curiously, "Then do you know what Helian Xiao wants?"

Niannian: "Niannian doesn't know."

Okay, I don't know again.

Meng Wanwan continued watching the show.

Bai Meng's charming face showed her eyes glaring at Helian Xiao: "If you want the Bai family's things, then kill me first."

Helian Xiao scoffed, "Grandma, can you please stop looking at me like that? I'm only sixteen. If people see that look, they'll think I'm looking for you."

A soft laugh echoed through the quiet bamboo forest.

Meng Wanwan's voice wasn't loud, but everyone present was of a higher rank than her, so they could all hear her.

Both members of the Bai family looked in the direction of Meng Wanwan, but Helian Xiao raised his head and the black sword on his shoulder clattered into the tree trunk.

It seems to mean something like that.

Don't look at her, look at me.

Bai Meng's face flushed red instantly, her coquettishness vanished, replaced by resentment: "Second Uncle, are you just going to watch him humiliate me? When did our Bai family become so vulnerable to being bullied by a heretic like Xiao Shanyou? Are you, a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, just going to let someone provoke you like this?"

Bai Changxue took a deep breath, no longer caring about the person hiding there, and focused on solving the problem at hand: "It's impossible to get the things, Helian Xiao. If you don't want to lose both of us, then don't continue. You are the young master of Xiaoshan You, and I am just an elder of the Bai family. You know which is more important."

"Oh?" Helian Xiao sneered, "Do you think that all of us in Xiaoshanyou are shameless scoundrels like those from your Baili family?"

"Killing members of your Baili family is the ancestral precept of our Xiaoshanyou!"
