"What is this thing?" people exclaimed and ran around, some reacting quickly by attacking the banyan tree with their spiritual power.
However, when the spiritual energy struck the banyan tree, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, without even causing a ripple.
"Form ranks!" Several leaders of sects and families shouted, and immediately dozens of disciples from these sects and families flew into the air, summoning their magical treasures, and circles of array patterns immediately appeared beneath their feet.
"Niannian, what exactly happened?" Meng Wanwan asked anxiously.
“Master… I can sense Lanqiao’s presence, but I don’t know where he is. It’s as if he is the entire space.”
"But I could sense that he was protecting something, and his feelings of rejection were particularly strong."
Meng Wanwan stared intently at the tree and said, "It's that tree, the big banyan tree that Shangguan Liuyue mentioned."
Everyone then realized that Shangguan Liuyue had indeed mentioned the banyan tree when she told the story.
Meng Wanwan looked at Meng Xiuyi: "Father..."
Her eyes were filled with excitement.
Now that the truth is gradually becoming clear, there are some things they must decide.
They didn't know why these few rogue cultivators from the Meng family were able to shake such a long-hidden and bizarre secret.
However, she knew that if those things, or even the truth about the war between gods and demons, were to be revealed, the Meng family would no longer be as carefree as they were today, and might even repeat the mistakes of hundreds of years ago.
Simply because they were just a group of independent cultivators.
Now, we are truly facing a global storm.
Meng Wanwan wanted to take that step.
Just like Baili Qing hundreds of years ago, for the sake of the truth, for the beliefs and principles of right and wrong in his heart, he stood fearlessly in front of the truth and shielded Zhuting from the wind and rain.
And also because she came into this world so hastily...
Meng Xiuyi gave her a faint smile.
Let's go.
He prided himself on being a virtuous and upright gentleman, but even a gentleman is still a child raised by parents. Whether they were his parents in a past life or in this life, their kindness is immense.
However, both his parents in this life and his previous life were murdered. If he truly had no hatred or enmity with them, he would be unworthy to be a son.
A blue longsword slowly emerged from his hand.
He leaped into the air, a streak of water slicing through the ripples that were striking the banyan tree.
The entire space began to shake.
The head of the Shangguan family turned around and frowned, saying, "It's you? What are you doing? Do you intend to protect this remnant of the demon race?"
Meng Xiuyi stepped through the air and said, "Patriarch Shangguan should know my identity. I presume Miss Shangguan has already informed you about the Linggu Sect."
People from other families and sects also stopped fighting, their wary gazes fixed on him.
The head of the Shangguan family was stunned for a moment. He quickly compared his actions with the people mentioned in the news that Shangguan Linglong had brought back that day. After finding that he had not made any enemies or indirectly made any enemies, he became more imposing.
"Of course I know, but that was in the past. Besides, your parents have been freed, their past is gone, and the Linggu Sect has vanished. Why are you bringing this up now?"
When Meng Xiuyi stepped onto the top of the banyan tree, the banyan tree miraculously stopped moving.
A warm glint flashed in Meng Xiuyi's eyes.
Everyone in the room was looking at Meng Xiuyi, and they felt that there was definitely an even bigger scandal to be told today.
Especially the independent cultivators, they all started to push forward.
To be honest, these things don't really have much to do with the independent cultivators. Whether in the past or now, they are just a bunch of rabble.
They were just watching the show.
Meng Xiuyi asked, "Does Patriarch Shangguan know who my parents were in my previous life?"
The head of the Shangguan family felt a pang of anxiety and secretly glanced at Shangguan Liuyue.
Suddenly, she noticed that Shangguan Liuyue was standing behind Meng Wanwan.
The head of the Shangguan family felt a jolt in his heart.
bad thing!
Did we choose the wrong side again?!
"It is...it was born from the spiritual transformation of two plants."
The crowd gasped in disbelief.
This person not only knows about his past life, but he was also born from a plant spirit!
That sounds so exciting!
Meng Xiuyi smiled, as if bathed in a spring breeze.
"Does the head of the Shangguan family know who owns those two plants?"
The Shangguan family head's expression changed drastically!
I understand now!
Before he could guess, Meng Xiuyi's voice came out.
"It is Zhuting!"
His indifferent gaze swept across the entire room, the black banyan branches swaying at his feet, making him appear extremely alluring.
"Therefore, this place is the residence of our ancestors. Please forgive me, but I cannot allow you to act arbitrarily here."
The elder of the Han family sneered: "You think we'll stop just because you say that? What are you? In this life, you're nothing but a nobody cultivator. Who cares what you were in your past life?"
"Elder Han, you really have a big mouth." Helian Tengyun also stepped forward and strode through the air.
Elder Han frowned: "What does Patriarch Helian mean? Could it be that you also want to interfere and take possession of everything here?"
Helian Tengyun scoffed, "Take it for yourself? It seems Elder Han is certain there's something here?"
Elder Han turned to look at the man beside him.
The man's eyes darted around, and he took a step back.
Meng Wanwan recognized those eyes at a glance: "It's Bai Changxue. He's still alive."
Helian Tengyun naturally saw it too, and scoffed coldly.
Elder Han said coldly, "Whether it is or not, just look for it. Everyone knows that a rare treasure has appeared here. I wonder why Patriarch Helian is jumping out now."
Helian Tengyun reached out and smoothed the wrinkles in his clothes from squatting on the ground listening to the story, and said in a calm voice, "For no reason other than that this place is where my Helian family rose to prominence. The little Xue in the story told by Ancestor Shangguan was Helian Xue, the ancestor of my Helian family. This place was built by my Helian family ancestors together with Zhu Ting and Baili Qing."
Helian Tengyun's expression turned serious, and his voice suddenly rose: "Are you all planning to dig up my Helian family's ancestral home and graves?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present turned their attention to the head of the Shangguan family.
However, such a tense atmosphere is not suitable for gossiping.
However, they were particularly eager to know what the head of the Shangguan family should do now.
The head of the Shangguan family felt utterly chilled.
He turned his gaze to Shangguan Liuyue and saw her ambiguous smile.
This time, he truly understood!
Isn't this the place that Shangguan Liuyue and three other people built together?
In other words...
This place can also be considered half of the Shangguan family's territory...
Ancestral home?
No, that's a bit too much.
However, it is absolutely correct to say that this is the "ancestral residence" of the Shangguan family!
So, under everyone's watchful eyes, the head of the Shangguan family took two steps forward.
Then, he turned around, with his back to the banyan tree, and faced the Han family.
Elder Han glared angrily.
The head of the Shangguan family was initially quite embarrassed, but upon seeing the appearance of the Han family's eldest elder, his gaze immediately darkened.
After all, he was the head of the most prestigious family.
It's not something you can give attitude to just anyone.
"It seems that Elder Han has a problem with me!"
