Yun Zhao and Chu You were both surprised for a moment.

Are there any left for them?

Both of them looked at Meng Xiuyi, and only after Meng Xiuyi nodded did they reach out and take the things in front of them.

Yun Zhao opened the box in front of him, inside was a long sword, emerald green but adorned with gold gems, which was quite compatible with his metal element.

Chu You took the hammer, and when it touched his hand, a tingling, electric-like sensation spread throughout his body.

Helian Tengyun said, "You two are still a bit lacking in strength. Once you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, you'll be able to use this weapon."

Helian Xiao looked dissatisfied: "Father, I go out to carry out missions every day, and I've never seen you give me anything good. This is a shielding magic artifact and a weapon."

Helian Tengyun sneered: "You can return your robes and weapons to me now, and I'll give them back to you."

Helian Xiao chuckled: "No need, no need, I can earn it myself!"

Then, his expression changed, and he turned to look at the doorway: "Miss Han, have you been watching long enough?"

Han Fei had indeed been watching for a long time. She was sulking outside when she came in and heard them catching up. Then she saw Helian Tengyun give the two boys weapons.

When someone pointed it out, she didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she walked in with a smile and said, "Oh dear, I didn't hear anything I shouldn't have heard, Uncle Yun. Could you please stop letting Brother Xiao talk to me like that all the time? It hurts me so much. We grew up together, don't we have any affection for each other at all?"

Helian Tengyun's smile remained unchanged: "No."

Han Fei's smile froze on her face.

Helian Xiao laughed loudly: "Is your brain filled with grass? Your mother and my mother have been at odds since childhood, and you still dare to try to get attention from my father. If it weren't for the trouble your Han family got into this time, and my father letting you in out of consideration for our past relationship, do you think you could have gotten in?"

"Alright, Xiao'er, Miss Han came here for the sake of peace in the cultivation world, so let's not say anything more."

Helian Tengyun sternly reprimanded Helian Xiao, then said to Han Fei, "It's getting late, Miss Han, please go back first. We can discuss anything else tomorrow."

Han Fei retorted, "Why are these people allowed here? A bunch of lowly rogue cultivators, are they less important than me?"

Meng Wanwan blinked and asked, "Was Miss Han born from an egg?"

Han Fei glared at her angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Meng Wanwan shrugged: "Miss Han is so noble, I thought she was some kind of bird."

"Pfft..." Helian Xiao couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Han Fei swung her hand and hit her: "You little bitch, how dare you insult me? I'll kill you."

Meng Xiuyi waved her hand and sent the person flying. Her refined and gentle expression instantly turned as cold as frost.

Han Fei fell backwards, landing heavily in the yard.

Yun Zhao's eyelids twitched, and he looked at Meng Wanwan.

Sure enough, Meng Wanwan's eyes showed eagerness.

Very good, this should be my junior sister's next target.

Helian Tengyun said with a stern face and a deep, resonant voice, "Uncle Liu, please ask Miss Han to return to the guest courtyard. If this happens again, you should also leave the Helian family."

An old man's voice came from outside: "This old servant understands."

Helian Xiao explained to Meng Xiuyi very considerately, "This Han Fei is a concubine's daughter in the direct line of the Han family. Her mother is the current head of the Han family's concubine. Uncle Meng, you understand what a concubine is, right?"

Meng Xiuyi nodded slightly: "I understand."

"Hey!" Helian Xiao gave him a knowing look: "My mother also comes from a large family, while her mother is from a small family that is dependent on my mother's family. Although the two of them grew up together, my mother is very talented and is a favored daughter of heaven, while her mother is a useless beauty."

"Han Fei's personality is exactly like her mother's, so her mother and my mother have never gotten along since childhood. Later, my mother married my father and gave birth to me. No one expected that just because Han Fei's mother knew my mother, she would catch the eye of the Han family head."

"So, her mother kept nagging about arranging a marriage between Han Fei and me, but it never happened until my mother passed away."

Helian Tengyun said helplessly, "Why are you telling Xiuyi all this? Is this some kind of good thing?"

Helian Xiao: "Father, please don't bother me. I'll tell you something useful later."

Then he continued to say to Meng Xiuyi, "This Uncle Liu was the steward who came with my mother when she married into the family. When my mother passed away, she entrusted him to take good care of me. Perhaps because Uncle Liu's son entered the Han family, Uncle Liu has always wanted to match me with Han Fei."

Meng Xiuyi listened quietly without expressing any opinion.

Instead, Meng Wanwan looked on with a look of astonishment: "Are your family rules so lax? How can a servant interfere in your marriage?"

Helian Xiao looked at her and said, "No, it's just that he had ulterior motives. He had passed on a message to me on Han Fei's behalf before, but this is probably the last time. My mother's influence isn't always useful."

After saying that, he laughed maliciously.

“My dad said he would give him three chances, and now he’s had three chances. You probably won’t see him tomorrow.”

Helian Tengyun glared at him: "Are you done talking? Shouldn't we get down to business?"

Helian Xiao chuckled and said, "Alright, let's get down to business. There's one more thing."

He turned to Meng Xiuyi and said, "To be honest, when I came out of the painting, I had some doubts. The current Han family is the same Han family that Bailichuan mentioned in the painting, the Han family that Zhuting's father belongs to."

Meng Xiuyi said, "I also had my doubts, but the events in the scroll clearly took place before the war between gods and demons. The Han family is said to have appeared after the war between gods and demons, so I didn't connect the two."

The problem is that people nowadays basically have no memory of what happened before the war between gods and demons. Some of the older ancestors of sects and aristocratic families have either been lost to time or are still in seclusion.

Almost no one can prove the history of the Han family.

Helian Xiao shrugged: "Me too. Alright, Dad, I'm done. Now I'll explain why I brought them back."

Helian Xiao recounted their experiences inside the scroll, as well as how they were chased by Li Dao using demonic artifacts on their way back.

While he was talking, Meng Wanwan took the time to ask Niannian.

"What's going on with the Blood Essence?"

Niannian seemed to have been holding it in for a long time, and now that Meng Wanwan finally had time to ask, she quickly said, "It's that feeling again, Master, disgust, hatred."

Meng Wanwan raised an eyebrow: "I now suspect that this Han family might really be related to the Han family in the painting. Then, that's very interesting. Why do I feel the blood essence of the two families who persecuted Sister Ting in the painting?"

Although Meng Wanwan didn't want to admit it, she still tentatively asked.

"Niannian, do you think I have a connection with Zhuting? Or perhaps, I came into this world for her?"

Niannian's voice was also full of doubt: "Niannian doesn't know."

Meng Wanwan sighed, "It's not just the memories of this world that are problematic."

Even the prayers are sometimes effective and sometimes not.

On the other side, Helian Xiao had finished speaking, while Helian Tengyun fell into deep thought.

"The formation you are referring to should be the Demon Gathering Formation, which supplies a formation called Star Sea Demon Profound. Because the demon race has become extinct, we can only see many things in history books. This Star Sea Demon Profound Formation is said to be a small formation used to protect a very important place for the demon race."

He looked at Meng Wanwan: "If you really went in, how did you get out?"

Helian Xiao raised his hand: "I know this."
