"What's wrong with you?" Helian Xiao nudged Meng Wanwan, who was in a daze.
Meng Wanwan snapped out of her daze, shook her head, and said, "I'm fine."
But in my heart, I've already begun to call out to Nian Nian.
"Niannian, have you noticed anything wrong with Han Yueji? Why do I feel that her aversion to the Han family bloodline is particularly strong?"
Niannian: "Master, I have the same feeling. Moreover, I can't detect this person's basic information. This person is very strange."
Meng Wanwan had a premonition that this person might be a major breakthrough.
"Let's go back first," Meng Wanwan said to Helian Xiao.
Helian Xiao was confused, but he still followed Meng Wanwan back.

What is a Buddhist worship ceremony?
In reality, the so-called Buddhist worship ceremony is nothing more than reiterating the virtue of Heaven's benevolence towards life and the foundation of the righteous sects of the Nine Realms, and then taking out some resources to be given to the cultivators of the Nine Realms on behalf of Heaven.
The way to bestow gifts is naturally through competition, since this is how cultivators gain power.
Although the purpose of each Buddhist worship ceremony is similar, the format varies somewhat.
For example, last time, the Han family directly contributed a small secret realm, allowing qualified cultivators to seize it on their own.
The last time, the Han family led a team to wipe out the lair of an evil cultivator, and all the cultivators who participated in the operation received a considerable reward.
Unfortunately, the decline of the cultivation world is irreversible. Even with a large amount of resources flowing out, it still hasn't made much of a splash in the Nine Realms.
Therefore, people are curious about what the Han family will bring out to support this Buddhist worship conference.
In their view, the cultivation world has really been getting worse day by day over the years.
In the courtyard where the Han family lived, Han Yueji carried a box and walked slowly along the road, her long skirt sweeping away the fallen flowers.
He was accompanied by an old nanny.
"Miss, we've arrived." The old nanny stopped in front of a room.
Han Yueji nodded politely, then pushed open the door and entered.
In the room, Han Yueji placed the box on the table and then reached out to open the lid.
A piece of something, like colorless glass, sat quietly in the box.
Han Yueji reached out and touched it, but her hand seemed to pass through the glass-like object as if it were air.
She smiled silently and said, "After all these years, you're still so stubborn."
Having said that, she ignored the transparent object, took out a small bottle from her sleeve, uncapped it, and poured the contents onto the colorless glass.
The colorless glass suddenly began to struggle violently, its colorless surface alternating between red and black, with a strong aura of malevolence gradually dissipating from it.
Han Yueji ignored it and put the lid on the box, then carried it out of the room.
Meng Wanwan was listening to rumors about what the Han family was going to contribute when suddenly a sharp pain shot through her mind.
Meng Wanwan's face immediately scrunched up, and tears streamed down her face.
At the same time, Meng Wanwan also sensed Niannian's unease.
"Master, Niannian feels so bad, it feels like something is tearing my whole body apart."
Meng Wanwan said, "Niannian, you go back to your space first."
Niannian responded and left immediately.
At the same time, Meng Wanwan's headache stopped.
Meng Xiuyi noticed her unusual behavior and asked, "Wawa, what's wrong?"
Meng Wanwan touched her head before saying, "Just now, Niannian and I both felt a particularly uncomfortable sensation, so I sent it back to the space. After she left, I stopped feeling it."
Shangguan Liuyue replied, "That's not surprising. You and it are symbiotic, so there must be some connection between you. Your space can be said to be isolated from the Nine Realms. When it goes to that space, it's as if it has gone to another world. This connection is severed, so naturally you don't feel any discomfort."
A cold light gradually appeared in Meng Xiuyi's eyes.
"It seems that everything is about to begin."
Just then, a talisman that Meng Wanwan had placed at her waist suddenly flew out.
Meng Wanwan reacted quickly and grabbed it.
A voice came from the talisman.
"Baby, we're going to Nine Heavens City."
It was Cong Ying's voice.
Meng Wanwan was astonished. She looked at Meng Xiuyi and said, "They're coming to Jiutian City!"
Since Cong Yinglanqiao and Yun Zhao went to the snowy region with Yun Ling, the news has been leaked.
The news that people had returned to the snowy region had spread throughout the entire Nine Realms.
Nowadays, they are considered to be representative figures of the demon race.
Although the Nine Realms have been very lenient towards cultivators of evil energy in recent years, as long as they do not do anything immoral, they are unwilling to classify them as demons.
However, people are still extremely wary of any cultivators of malevolent energy who have even been associated with the Snowfield Demon City.
Therefore, they were all called demonic cultivators.
With the demons reappearing in the human world, many people are naturally paying attention. Not to mention others, even the Shangguan family has people keeping watch near the snowy region.
The Snowfield lies north of Chongyang Palace, which serves as a strategic pass that withstood repeated invasions by the demon race hundreds of years ago.
It was also near Chongyang Palace that the demons were annihilated in one fell swoop.
However, the price paid was that the area under the jurisdiction of Chongyang Palace became a dead zone, devoid of any spiritual energy.
People assumed that with the demons reappearing, the Chongyang Palace would be the first to stand up and protect the Nine Realms. However, after so much time, there has still been no news from the Chongyang Palace.
Not a single person even came out to take a look.
After putting down the communication talisman, Meng Wanwan said to Meng Xiuyi, "Father, this is the best opportunity to test whether there is anyone in Chongyang Palace."
If they manage to enter the area south of Beiyue smoothly, it means that Chongyang Palace is not as legendary as it seems. However, the situation is probably not optimistic.

The Buddhist worship ceremony was held on a mountain in Jiutian City, where there was a huge platform that could accommodate tens of thousands of people.
This year's Buddhist worship event attracted even more people than in previous years, and the platform, which was always difficult to fill, was now packed to capacity.
Meng Wanwan and her friends mingled in the crowd, listening to the people discussing the possible prizes.
Almost everyone believes that the Han family will definitely come up with something even better this time in order to stabilize their reputation.
At the summit, Han Yueji looked down at the shadowy figures of cultivators below, a contemptuous and mocking smile on her face.
They're nothing but a bunch of mediocre, intellectually mediocre people. They're easily manipulated by others for the smallest gains, it's truly laughable.
