Everyone looked at her as if she were an idiot, and Fifth Zi Ning looked disgusted as if she had swallowed a fly. "Are you out of your mind? I asked you where your family is, and you're here promoting some new power!"
"Haven't you ever been told by anyone in your Fifth Family not to ask questions you shouldn't have in your entire life?" Dongfang Mian said.
"Tch, what's wrong with asking? It's not like it's anything shameful," Fifth Zi Ning said, pursing her lips.
Dongfang Mian said in a meaningful tone, "It's best not to pry into many things, as it may not be beneficial for you, especially a family related to the God Lord. If you insist on knowing where it is, why don't you ask the God Lord to tell you directly?"
These words shocked not only everyone present, but also Fifth Zi Ning.
Although the families to which the students of Tianyin Academy belong are more or less related to the God, these relationships vary in degree. Some families simply follow the God's orders but have never even seen the God's face, while others are the God's guards. Naturally, there is no comparison between the two.
Judging from Dongfang Mian's words, the Dongfang family has a very close relationship with the God Lord. A reclusive family with close ties to the God Lord is enough to command everyone's awe.
"So you know the God Lord?" A cold voice rang out from behind the group.
Then the small circle of people parted to make way, and a woman dressed in a gorgeous purple dress walked over as if surrounded by stars.
"It's Kiyoaki Chihiro," someone immediately recognized her.
Although everyone had already shouted out the newcomer's name loudly, Dongfang Mian still feigned confusion and asked, "Who are you?"
The woman snorted coldly, "I am from the Qianxun family, Qingqiu Qianxun! As for you, what Dongfang family? I've never heard of you before."
Upon seeing this, Fifth Zi Ning immediately said, "That's right, and he even said he was related to the God Lord. I think he's probably a fraud who infiltrated the Heavenly Sound Academy. I wonder what his ulterior motives are."
Facing the questioning gazes of the crowd, Dongfang Mian remained completely calm. "Qingqiu Qianxun, so you are a core bloodline disciple of the Qianxun family. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Upon hearing this, Qingqiu Qianxun's face darkened. "I am merely a member of a collateral branch of the Qianxun family. Don't think I'll fall for your words. Don't even think about trying to sow discord among our families."
“Oh... a branch family…” Dongfang Mian said, feigning surprise and drawing out her voice, “It’s normal that you don’t know about our family. I don’t think the God Lord would share everything with the branch family.”
Although Qingqiu Qianxun also shares the surname Qianxun and comes from the Qianxun family, there are far too many collateral disciples like her. Collateral disciples are not valued even in some small families, let alone the Qianxun family, which has produced the rulers of both the human and divine realms. There are countless people like Qingqiu Qianxun.
Dongfang Mian's words made Qiu Qianxun's expression change constantly. This was the first time she had been humiliated in public. In the past, when she mentioned her name, everyone would avoid her and treat her with great respect, afraid of offending her.
Seeing that Qingqiu Qianxun remained silent, Dongfang Mian continued, "Oh dear, you haven't met the God Lord before, have you? You're from the same family, after all. Have you met the Human Lord? You haven't either?! You must have met Lady Baixue, right?"
As Dongfang Mian pressed for answers, Qingqiu Qianxun couldn't help but feel a chill. Others might only know who the Human Lord and the God Lord were, but only the Qianxun family and those close to the Human Lord and the God Lord knew who Lady Baixue was. Many disciples of the Qianxun family didn't even know who Lady Baixue was.
