"He killed Yi?" The group was shocked because, according to the various legends they had heard, Yi was a superhuman hero who had appeared out of nowhere. How could such a person have been killed in the end?
Although Pang Meng is not weak, no matter how you look at it, he is still far from the legendary Yi's strength.
The leaves of the big mulberry tree swayed with a peculiar rhythm: "That's what some people who passed through the mulberry grove said back then, and in recent years I've seen Pang Meng occasionally fall into a state of madness, shouting things like 'I'm sorry, Master,' 'Don't blame me, don't blame me,' which seems to confirm those rumors."
Hearing this, everyone fell silent, it seemed the rumors were mostly true.
Yun Jianyue said, "There's no need to be surprised. No matter how powerful Yi is, he is not immortal. As the saying goes, it's easy to dodge a spear in the open but hard to guard against an arrow in the dark. He is also Yi's disciple. If he were to launch a sneak attack, he might have a chance. Throughout our Holy Sect's history, countless masters have been killed by those close to them."
Upon reflection, the group realized that this was indeed the case, and they couldn't help but sigh that such a great hero had ultimately died at the hands of someone close to him.
"By the way, what about Yi's wife, Chang'e?" Zu'an asked. Seeing the complicated looks on the women's faces, he quickly explained, "Just now, before Pang Meng died, he seemed to be calling out Chang'e's name."
Do I really have such a lewd image in their eyes?
No matter how beautiful Chang'e is, she's still someone else's wife.
“I did hear travelers passing through the mulberry grove talk about it back then. One story is that Pang Meng became Yi’s apprentice because he was also a master archer and believed his archery skills were no less than Yi’s. Later, he challenged Yi to a duel, lost, and then became Yi’s apprentice to learn his archery skills. Another story is that he was so amazed by Yi’s wife, Chang’e, that he became Yi’s apprentice in order to get closer to her,” the big mulberry tree replied.
Zu An looked at him strangely, thinking to himself that although Cao Cao was dead, his spirit still lingered in every era.
It's quite absurd that this big mulberry tree, which can't be moved, could hear so many things. Those passersby back then must have been very gossipy.
"This Pang Meng is indeed a shameless scoundrel!" Yun Jianyue snorted coldly. She had just felt that the way he looked at her was abnormal.
Yan Xuehen and Yu Yanluo nodded in agreement. As women, and very beautiful women at that, they were surrounded by many men. No matter how they tried to hide it, the wicked thoughts in their eyes were hard to escape their notice. The way Pang Meng looked at them just now was full of naked possessiveness, and he even tried to hide it, which further proved that he was of bad character.
“I heard from a traveler back then that Chang’e ate the elixir of immortality not because she coveted eternal life and abandoned Yi, but because she was forced by Pang Meng and had no choice but to eat the elixir to protect herself,” the Great Mulberry Tree said.
"This Pang Meng truly deserved to die! Not only did he murder his master, but he also tried to bully his master's wife!" Yan Xuehen was unusually angry. In her value system, any one of these behaviors was outrageous, let alone both.

“That’s right. Even within our Holy Sect, such a shameless person would be subjected to the torture of being torn to pieces.” Yun Jianyue no longer used her seductive arts. Although she was still dressed the same as before, she was now exuding a murderous aura.
Yu Yanluo was somewhat lost in thought. Wasn't it because her uncle was lusting after her beauty that he caused so much trouble?
Zu'an fell into thought. This Pang Meng was a big wild boar. He couldn't help but think of Zhu Bajie before. Then he thought of the myth that Marshal Tianpeng was banished to the mortal world and reincarnated as a pig because he flirted with Chang'e in heaven. Could there be any connection between them?
Just then, a few emerald green leaves drifted down from the sky and landed in front of them, which they instinctively caught.
At this moment, the big mulberry tree said, "The Dongting Lake ahead is filled with miasma. People and animals from outside who enter are easily poisoned and die. If you carry these leaves with you, you can avoid the harm of the miasma, and wearing them will also be beneficial to your injuries."
Zuan looked at the leaves in front of him. They were clearly different from other mulberry leaves. These leaves were emerald green and translucent, with a flowing light throughout. They looked more like a jade pendant than a leaf.
Holding it in my hand, I felt a cool sensation flow through my entire body, and the burning pain of the wound instantly became cool and comfortable, and the recovery speed was also much faster.
"Thank you very much, senior." Zu An was overjoyed. His injuries were not so bad, but Yan Xuehen and Yu Yanluo were injured. With this help, their recovery was probably hopeful.
As expected, Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue also showed joy, clearly having experienced the wonderful effects of the healing, and thanked it one after another.
"We really don't know how to repay such a precious gift from our senior." Yun Jianyue and Yan Xuehen are of a very high generation, and usually only others call them senior. However, in front of this ancient mulberry tree that has lived for tens of thousands of years, it is not a loss to call it senior.
Yun Jianyue was even more suspicious. Coming from the Demonic Sect, she was very wary of everything. There was no such thing as kindness without a reason. Why would the mulberry tree treat them like this?
The old mulberry tree let out a weathered and magnanimous voice: "These leaves are nothing precious to me. Giving you a few is like you losing a few hairs. There's no need for so much gratitude. In fact, I should thank you for getting rid of Feng Xi, that great scourge. That fellow had been gnawing away at countless mulberry groves, and we've suffered terribly for years. Fortunately, you solved the problem."
Zuan asked in surprise, "Huh? This entire mulberry grove is your avatar, and you still can't deal with it?"
The large mulberry tree replied, "Feng Xi is an ancient demon, and he has also fused with Pang Meng. He is not so easy to deal with. Moreover, my abilities are more inclined towards creation, and I am not good at destruction."
