Gu Weixing, the Ninth Elder of the Gu family who accompanied them this time, also noticed that the group behind Shang Xiye was quite powerful. He secretly transmitted his voice to Lan Tiangao and said, "Seventh Elder of the Lan family, a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. This group of people is probably quite powerful. Rumor has it that the Hidden Sect has recently emerged. If we can be patient, things will calm down. We can't follow in the footsteps of the Qu family."
Upon hearing the words "Hidden Sect," and considering that the Qu family is now effectively isolated by the Azure Water Sect and the Seven Clans, existing in name only, and almost kicked out of the Eight Great Clans, the Qu family is in an awkward situation.
Lan Tiangao was also shocked and broke out in a cold sweat: the Hidden Sect had emerged, how could he have forgotten about this!
Think about it carefully.
Besides the Hidden Sect, who else in this world can casually lead over a hundred members of their clan who have reached the Great Completion stage or above to wander around?
I heard that the last time the Qu family offended the second young lady of the Hidden Sect, who was about eight or nine years old.
The little girl in front of me is not very old, probably only sixteen or seventeen.
It's quite common for children from monk families to be eighty or ninety years apart in age.
Who knows... this might be the young lady of the Hidden Sect!
No wonder she dressed so inconspicuously, yet spoke so arrogantly.
It seems this ancestor has come out to gain experience and learn about life!
Lan Tiangao stared at Ji Fengyao, his mind racing, scaring himself half to death. Cold sweat soaked his robes. "I am, after all, an elder in your eyes; we still need to investigate the real culprit, so we will not hold it against you today. Hello..."
Lan Tiangao originally wanted to say "Take care of yourself," but when the words reached his lips, he felt they were a bit too harsh, so he changed his tone and softened his words, saying kindly, "Take good care of yourself."
After saying that, Lan Tiangao casually cast a cleansing spell on himself, instantly reverting to his dignified and otherworldly appearance as a pillar of the family. He waved to the Lan family members and said, "All Lan family members, listen to my command. Everyone, follow me to the Monster Forest and see if there are any clues there."
Ji Fengyao: "???"
An Zijin: "???"
Xique and the others: "???"
They were all ready to fight, and this old man just showed them up like this?
Where did the arrogance go?
Shang Xiye stared thoughtfully at the suspicious sweat stain on Lan Tiangao's back:
Lan Tiangao, that blond-haired brat, was clearly scared away.
Even if he has a group of powerful demons behind him, if the Lan family and the Gu family combine their strength, they are not incapable of resisting him.
It's impossible that Lan Tian and his ilk were scared away by them.
Could it be that some mysterious and powerful force has emerged on the Danling Continent?
However, they had only just returned to the Danling Continent, and it was better not to fight anyone before things stabilized. They were happy to have some peace and quiet, so Shang Xiye didn't say anything, and the matter was dropped.
Following the marks left by Ji Fengming.
Ji Fengyao and Shang Xiye, along with Xique and the others, successfully found the mansion built by Ji Fengming.
Ji Fengxiao and Xuan En have also been busy during this time. They have been working on improving the details of the courtyards little by little, planting flowers and grass, repairing walls and roofs, applying resin, and so on. The entire mansion has been almost completely repaired.
When Ji Fengyao and the others arrived, Ji Fengxiao and Xuan En were nailing rivets and copper rings onto the courtyard gate.
Above the main gate, there is a huge plaque.
The plaque was still empty, without any inscription, clearly waiting for Ji Fengyao and the others to arrive before inscribing it.
"Feng Xiao?" Ji Fengyao recognized Ji Feng Xiao from his expression and demeanor, and called out to him softly.
Upon hearing Ji Fengyao's call, Ji Fengxiao suddenly turned around, his eyes widening as he stared at Ji Fengyao, Shang Xiye beside her, and Xi Que and the others.
