Chu Nian said, "I just sent a message to summon a few old friends from the Ouyang family for you." Her smile became even more warm and inviting. It would be better to have them all together so she could settle accounts and avoid having to search for them one by one.
Lin Jingting asked with great admiration, "Hua Nian, I heard that during the six hundred years that the secret realm was closed, it was filled with chaotic spatial and temporal currents. Not only was there spiritual energy, but there was also immortal power and divine energy everywhere. How did you manage to escape from there?" This woman is too amazing. When will he be able to be this amazing?
Chu Nian smiled leisurely and said, "You don't know this, but my Hua family are descendants of the gods. Our bodies can automatically absorb and refine those immortal powers and divine energies." After a pause, she added, "I only learned about this after entering the rift. I finally understood why Wen Ruyan still stayed by your senior brother Hua's side even though he was seriously injured and crippled. It turns out that she had already learned about the true background of the Hua family from her father, Wen Zi'ang."
Everyone present was utterly shocked: the gods? The Hua family were actually descendants of the gods... Then... their minds started racing with calculations.
Only Lin Jingting said with some disappointment, "So, you're saying your strength isn't from cultivation, but from being born with good looks?!"
Chu Nian chuckled and said, "You could say that, but it also has a lot to do with my own strength. Just think, if I hadn't pretended to be attacked by Ouyang Ren and fallen back into the gap when it closed, how could I have made this discovery?"
Lin Zhaoqi asked, "Did you deliberately let yourself be trapped in the gap? Why?"
Chu Nian said, "I noticed something unusual about the rift the day before it actually opened. I wanted to investigate its true nature while it was closed, so I pretended to fall back into it. Otherwise, do you really think a few cultivators from the Ouyang family could do anything to me?" She couldn't help but sneer as she spoke.
Ouyang Chen asked, "Then, can you find out the true situation within the gap?"
Chu Nian said, "Yes, there is a sea of divine flowers left by the Hua clan of the divine race, and a road leading to the immortal realm, so I took the opportunity to visit the immortal realm."
"You...you went to the Immortal Realm?" Wen Ruyan asked in shock. She remembered that she had lost contact with the Wen family.
Chu Nian said with a smile, "Yes, has the little princess of the Wen family who was lost in the lower realm already discovered that she can no longer contact her father and Uncle Zixuan in the upper realm?"
Upon hearing this, all the demon lords were horrified and stared at Wen Ruyan with questioning eyes.
Wen Ruyan's face turned pale instantly.
Chu Nian: "Look at the way these demon lords are looking at you, Wen Ruyan. Why do you think they're all staring at you with such a deceived look? Did you deceive them before? What did you lie to them about?"
Tan Bujin demanded, "Miss Wen, you said before that as long as we acted according to your orders, your father would definitely send an immortal to guide us. Does that promise still stand?"
Wen Ruyan asked blankly, "What are you talking about? When did I say such a thing?" Then she looked enlightened and said through gritted teeth, "Oh, I see, this is Hua Nian impersonating me again!"
Chu Nian said leisurely, "I never intended to use these demon lords, and I have no use for them." After a pause, she said to Lin Jingting, "Alright, Jingting, let her go. Do you think she can escape?"
Lin Jingting: "This isn't about whether she escapes or not, it's about these demon lords..." He paused, then continued, "Wen Ruyan, it was you who opened the protective array of my Nebula Sect and let these demon lords in!"
Tao Anbo and the two Daoist masters surnamed Tong and Chen looked at him strangely after hearing his words. This child didn't seem to doubt Hua Nian's words at all. This child is too trusting!
Wen Ruyan said helplessly, "Junior Brother Lin, you overestimate me. How could I possibly have the ability to control the protective array of our Nebula Sect!"
Chu Nian said, "It was I who opened this great formation and let these demon lords in."
Tao Anbo roared, "Hua Nian, you female demon, do you intend to use these demon lords to destroy my Nebula Sect?"
Chu Nian: "You're overthinking it. I let them in because I thought it would be easier for me to tidy up when they were all together, instead of having to search all over the place."
Li Jueyin asked in bewilderment, "This mountain-protecting formation is controlled jointly by the five of us Dao Venerables. How did you open it?"
Lin Jingting: "Mother, she just said she went to the Immortal Realm for a trip. And the Wen family has lost contact with Wen Ruyan because of this. Can't you figure out what happened?"
Li Jueyin's lips twitched: It wasn't that she couldn't figure it out, it was that she couldn't believe it. This Hua Nian, she'd only been trapped in the Rift for a few years, how could she have even taken down the Wen family?
She asked curiously, "You wiped out the Wen family?"
Upon hearing this question, everyone turned to look at Chu Nian. Clearly, they all wanted a definite answer.
Chu Nian: "There are tens of thousands of immortals on the Wen Family Immortal Mountain. Destroy the Wen Family? I'm a good person, how could I let such a vast Wen Family Immortal Mountain be stained with blood..."
Hearing this, Wen Ruyan felt relieved, sneered, and interrupted her, saying, "I don't think you have that ability."
Chu Nian said, "Yes, just like Yang Zhen forced the Hua family to hand over my father back then, I went to the Wen family head for a detailed talk."
Tan Bujin hurriedly asked, "And the result?"
"Well," Chu Nian said with a laugh, "that Wen family head is a really good person. When he heard that Wen Zi'ang and Wen Zixuan had used their immortal power to persecute the cultivators of Xuanyuan Palace in the lower realm and even forced my father to his death, he summoned the Wen family disciples from those two branches to a mountain peak and handed them over to me to deal with as I saw fit."
"Two factions?" Wen Ruyan asked in a trembling voice, "What do you mean? What do you mean by 'handed over to you for your disposal'?"
Chu Nian: "That's exactly what I mean."
Wen Ruyan roared, "But you're just a mere cultivator. Even if you've reached the Mahayana stage, how could you possibly deal with those immortals? What ability do you have to deal with them?"
Chu Nian laughed and said, "Didn't you already know that our Hua family are descendants of the gods? During the time the rift was closed, I was influenced by the divine energy in those spatial turbulences and awakened many divine abilities. Let alone a minor immortal, even if a god came here, I could handle him or two."
Some of the demon lords had already secretly left. They all remembered what the female demon had just said: she had let them in because it would be easier to deal with them if they were all gathered together.
"No, this is impossible." Wen Ruyan couldn't believe that her father and uncle, who had always taken care of her, would be disposed of by Chu Nian. She also couldn't imagine how she would survive without her father and uncle.
It feels like she's made empty promises to too many peak Mahayana experts. If these supreme experts knew she was trying to get something for nothing, would they really let her go?
