Bai Changxue suddenly flicked her sleeve, and a burst of spiritual energy swept up Bai Meng and threw her away.

"Run!"

"Second Uncle—"

Bai Meng's mournful voice gradually faded into the night sky.

Meng Wanwan pondered, "Bai Changxue is only a Nascent Soul cultivator, yet she's afraid of Helian Xiao, who's only a Golden Core cultivator. Are the Nascent Soul cultivators in the Baili family really that weak?"

Niannian: "Could it be that Helian Xiao is too strong? A sixteen-year-old Golden Core cultivator is rare even in some sects and aristocratic families, isn't he?"

This inevitably reminded Meng Wanwan of her genius father.

She was in her fifties; if she hadn't suddenly appeared, she would have already reached the Nascent Soul stage.

The premise of this is that Meng Xiuyi was just a rogue cultivator.

Tsk tsk!

Her father was more of a genius.

On the other side, Helian Xiao remained unmoved by Bai Changxue's act of sending the person away, and simply looked at Bai Changxue with a smile.

Bai Changxue also noticed that the person in the shadows did not chase after them, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He said coldly, "Young Master Helian, why has Xiaoshan You been targeting our Bai family all these years? Since the war between gods and demons, our Bai family has disappeared without a trace and we believe we have not done anything that is morally wrong."

Bai Changxue's tone even carried a hint of grievance.

Over the years, Xiao Shanyou has been relentlessly killing members of the Bai family. He steals anything he can get his hands on without ever explaining why.

The Bai family was in a situation where they dared not speak out, because if they did, these powerful families or sects would not care about them.

I just think they deserved it.

The Bai family's reputation is truly awful.

Helian Xiao knew he was trying to stall for time, but he wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he said casually and nonchalantly, "That's right, so our feud will begin before the war between gods and demons."

Bai Changxue gritted her teeth and said, "What exactly do you want?"

Helian Xiao sneered: "Just kill you, why all the nonsense?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Helian Xiao's eyes changed instantly. He kicked the black greatsword up and sent it flying directly at Bai Changxue.

Meng Wanwan was utterly astonished by this act of throwing a heavy greatsword like a brick.

Wow, this person is incredibly strong!

Bai Changxue originally wanted to stall for time until Bai Meng ran far away before trying to escape, but he didn't expect Helian Xiao to be so easy to fool.

The black greatsword, carrying the force of thunder, pierced towards Bai Changxue. Bai Changxue summoned her longsword, creating a white barrier that enveloped her, seemingly having no intention of lingering any longer.

However, Helian Xiao gave him no chance to retreat. Helian Xiao struck out with a palm of spiritual energy, and a black chain shot out directly from the black sword, tightly wrapping the white barrier.

Helian Xiao vanished from his spot and reappeared beside the greatsword in the next second. He grabbed the hilt of the greatsword, turned around, and slammed the greatsword into the white barrier that was bound by black chains.

The white barrier shattered with a loud crash, and two fiery serpents shot into the sky, spinning as they lunged at Helian Xiao.

Helian Xiao sneered, gripped his greatsword with both hands to block his chest, and stomped his right foot hard.

"The wind rises!"

Suddenly, a strong wind swept through the windless bamboo forest, forming a wind dragon that grabbed the two fire dragons and changed their direction, sending them rushing into the sky.

Bai Changxue was shocked: "A mutated wind spirit root?"

Meng Wanwan was also surprised: "Niannian, he has a mutated wind spirit root? No wonder he is so powerful at such a young age."

Niannian exclaimed, "Look! Bai Changxue is running away!"

Meng Wanwan quickly turned her head to look and saw that Bai Changxue had already transformed into a white figure and entered the soaring fire dragon. Everyone present could hear him let out a muffled groan, and then his figure completely disappeared.

Helian Xiao didn't chase after him, but just sneered: "He's quite clever. A person with a fire elemental root sneaked into the fire dragon and used the wind elemental power to escape using a spatial magic artifact."

After saying that, he slung the greatsword over his shoulder, turned around and looked at where Meng Wanwan was lying, and said with amusement, "What's wrong? Aren't you coming out?"

Meng Wanwan: "Niannian, what's this person's character like?"

Niannian: "Straightforward."

"Alright!"

Meng Wanwan's eyes darted around, and she immediately lay down, saying weakly, "Young hero, please forgive me, I'm injured, cough cough cough..."

Niannian: "..."

Helian Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly, leaped onto the headless tree branch, and looked down at Meng Wanwan.

He was stunned when he saw it, and then he was pleasantly surprised: "Oh my, it really is a little kid. I thought it was some old monster."

Meng Wanwan tilted her head, coughed up blood, and Er Kang pleaded, "Uncle, save me."

Helian Xiao: "..."

He admitted that he was frightened.

"Hey, hey, hey, you, you, little girl, are you alright?"

"Pfft... I'm... pfft... fine for now... pfft... Uncle." Meng Wanwan said calmly as she vomited again and again.

Helian Xiao realized for the first time that such a tiny person had so much blood!

Even the usually arrogant Helian Xiao was at a loss: "You, you're really alright? You don't look alright."

Meng Wanwan maintained her serene expression, then said pitifully, "Really, it's nothing... Uncle."

Helian Xiao quickly rummaged through his storage bag for medicine: "Hang in there, you probably have internal injuries. I'll find some medicine."

Meng Wanwan: "Okay... Uncle."

Helian Xiaoguang was so flustered that he overlooked the suffixes in Meng Wanwan's sentences.

Niannian was speechless.

This person is so obviously holding a grudge.

Helian Xiao hurriedly took out a bunch of medicines from his storage bag, including medicines for treating internal injuries and stopping bleeding, and stuffed them all into Meng Wanwan's hands.

Meng Wanwan was about to spit out another mouthful of medicine when Helian Xiao pinched her mouth and stuffed a bunch of pills into her mouth, making her choke and roll her eyes back.

Helian Xiao jumped up in fright: "What? What's going on?"

Meng Wanwan rolled her eyes and pointed at the water bag on his waist.

I need water!!!

Fortunately, Helian Xiao was only a little mentally alert and not really stupid. He quickly took off the water pouch and gave Meng Wanwan a couple of sips.

The little girl, Meng Wanwan, stretched her neck for quite a while before swallowing the pills.

Helian Xiao was a little worried, so he pulled her up in front of him and asked, "How is she? Huh? Girl, say something."

Meng Wanwan rolled her eyes again.

He said in a hoarse voice, "Uncle, you've ruined my voice."

Helian Xiao knew immediately that the kid was alright for the time being, so he stopped. He planted his greatsword beside him, put one hand on his hip, and said, "I'm only speaking to you nicely because you're an innocent victim of our collateral damage and you're young. But don't go too far, stop calling me 'uncle,' I'm only sixteen!"

Meng Wanwan remained expressionless, holding up two fingers and waving them in front of his eyes: "I'm only two years old."

Helian Xiao: "..."

Meng Wanwan: "When you turn twenty, I'll only be six."

Helian Xiao: "..."

Meng Wanwan: "Is there anything wrong with a six-year-old child calling a twenty-year-old man 'uncle'?"

That seems to be true. In Xiaoshanyou, among the mortals, sometimes the eldest grandson is older than the youngest son.

Helian Xiao was defeated.

"Fine, you win. I won't hold it against you for being young."

After saying that, he put Meng Wanwan down and turned to leave.

He wasn't stupid. A child who survived being hit by a spiritual energy wave and whose vitality remained undiminished was no ordinary child.

However, since they had no grudges against each other, he wouldn't concern himself with such matters. He had given her the medicine, which could be considered an apology, and they parted ways thereafter, never to meet again.

However, as soon as he put Meng Wanwan down, she coughed up blood again.

Helian Xiao...

Is this over yet?

Meng Wanwan stared at him, her face full of disbelief: "Your medicine is poisonous?"

Helian Xiao nearly choked: "Little girl, tell me, what do you want to do?"

He realized that this girl was just trying to blackmail him because she knew he wouldn't do anything to her.

Meng Wanwan chuckled and dropped the pretense.

"Uncle, I just want you to take me home to find my father!"
