Seeing this, Dongfang Mian no longer cared about hiding his strength and unleashed his full Saintly aura. The old ancestor who had been eyeing them menacingly knelt down on the ground with a thud.
The head of the Dongfang family and Dongfang Yuanyan were naturally unharmed and stood in place. Looking at the patriarchs of top families scattered at his feet, Dongfang Yuanyan couldn't help but straighten his back.
"Grandpa, Uncle," Dongfang Mian ran over with a smile, like a harmless little girl.
But those who had sensed her presence trembled uncontrollably. When she ran over, they didn't dare to lift their heads and instead knelt and retreated.
"Mian'er, you've grown up," the head of the Dongfang family said, affectionately stroking Dongfang Mian's head.
"Mian'er, you are really amazing! Tell your uncle what realm you are in now? Have you reached that legendary realm?" Dongfang Yuanyan asked curiously.
The old ancestors on the ground also pricked up their ears to listen.
Dongfang Mian glanced at them and looked at Dongfang Yuanyan, saying, "Uncle, Mian'er is really powerful now. I can easily kill several of those legendary realms you mentioned."
Upon hearing this, the head of the Dongfang family and Dongfang Yuanyan exclaimed in surprise, and the heads of the ancestors at their feet almost sank into the ground.
"Mian'er, what brings you back this time?" the head of the Dongfang family inquired.
“I’m back here on business. I heard that the sacred flower on the White Tiger Continent is about to bloom, and I’m going there to see it. Does Grandpa know where it is?” Dongfang Mian asked.
The head of the Dongfang family shook his head. They had only just arrived in the Holy City of the White Tiger Continent a few days ago and had not yet been notified to visit the Holy Flower.
"Oh, I see," Dongfang Mian thought for a moment and prepared to ask someone.
Behind him, Yan Lin roared furiously, "Who among those kneeling on the ground is in charge of the Holy City? Get out here and answer me right now!"
From the crowd, a slightly thin, middle-aged man with a pale face tumbled out, his voice trembling as he said, "I am the city lord of the Holy City. I greet you both. What are your orders?"
"Where is the Holy Flower? Take us there quickly!" Yan Lin didn't want to stay in this wretched place for even a quarter of an hour longer.
As Yan Lin spoke, he unleashed his Saintly aura without hesitation, and the intense pressure made the Holy City Lord almost unable to breathe.
"Mian'er, who is he?" Upon seeing this, the head of the Dongfang family quickly pulled Dongfang Mian behind him and stared at Yan Lin with a wary expression.
"It's alright, Grandpa. He's my junior brother. He's a very nice person, just a little short-tempered," Dongfang Mian said awkwardly.
Just then, the other side of the city wall, which was already teetering on the brink of collapse under Yan Lin's oppressive aura, also collapsed with a roar, raising clouds of dust.
"I can see that..." the head of the Dongfang family said speechlessly, "Mian'er, your understanding of 'Slight' might be a little off."
...
Dongfang Mian couldn't explain in front of so many people, so she could only awkwardly force a smile.
Under Yan Lin's pressure, the Holy City Lord did not resist at all and resignedly led Dongfang Mian and Yan Lin toward the place where the Holy Flower grew.
Dongfang Mian was unsure if the place where the Sacred Flower was located was safe, so she sent the Dongfang family head and Dongfang Yuanyan back to the Vermilion Bird Continent to await news from her.
Dongfang Mian and the others followed the city lord of the Holy City to the location of the Holy Flower. After arriving, Dongfang Mian finally understood why Feng Qianxun had come once but had not taken away what he needed.
Before they arrived, no one expected that the Sacred Flower would grow in an incredibly smelly swamp. As Aju put it, it was as if all the latrines of the entire continent had been dumped here.
