Good heavens, the ancestor has gone to confess his love again!

After saying this, Xu Yuan stood quietly to the side, his merits and fame hidden.

He couldn't help but smile, secretly pleased, as if he could already see his ancestor kneeling on a washboard when he got home.

One word—

Cool!

as predicted.

The moment the words faded, the hall fell into a deathly silence, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Only the heavy breathing of Meng Anran, Meng Luoli, and Mu Yuxuan could be heard from the three high platforms, the atmosphere so oppressive it was almost frozen.

After a few breaths of stalemate, Meng Anran suddenly rose from her jade throne, her brows furrowed with urgency:

"Did Xu Lang really... French kiss Qin Jianjia and Bai Zhixi, those two seniors?"

"Absolutely true, witnessed by countless people, not a single word is false!" Xu Yuan replied decisively.

To everyone's surprise, the anger on Meng Anran's face vanished in an instant, replaced by a deep sorrow. She let out a long sigh, her voice filled with heartache.

"Alas, my dear Xu Lang, you have truly gone to great lengths and put in so much effort for us three sisters!"

? ? ? ? ?

Xu Yuan froze on the spot, his mind buzzing, completely dumbfounded.

This reaction was completely unexpected. Why was he praising his ancestors?

How can it be considered well-intentioned?

Meng Anran noticed his blank expression, gently shook her head, and slowly explained:

"Before Wuse of the Great Thunderclap Temple died, he said that the person behind the annihilation of my Jiang clan was Ye Linxiao, the Grand Elder of the Azure Cloud Holy Land, and Qin Jianjia was Ye Linxiao's wife."

"Xu Lang's actions are likely a deliberate attempt to provoke Ye Linxiao, inciting his rage to relentlessly pursue him into the Primordial Secret Realm, thereby uncovering the truth behind the Jiang family's massacre."

Xu Yuan: "?????????"

no……

Are you really that good at making things up?

Our ancestors simply saw that she was pretty and couldn't resist their desires, so they took the initiative to approach her and take advantage of her. They had no such far-reaching plans.

Does he even have the brains for that?

Aside from dealing with women, he had never seen his ancestor use his brain in anything else in his life...

Moreover, why would you publicly kiss someone's wife just to find out the truth?

This logic doesn't make sense at all.

"Then what about Bai Zhixi? The Lingxiao Holy Land has nothing to do with the Jiang family's affairs back then, right?" Xu Yuan said subconsciously.

Meng Anran hesitated for a moment, then quickly came up with a convincing explanation:

"It seems that Xu Lang wants to take this opportunity to test whether the Lingxiao Holy Land was also secretly involved in this matter back then."

A loud thud!

Xu Yuan's legs gave way, and he fell flat on his back on the bluestone ground, prostrating himself on the ground, his heart filled with nothing but admiration.

Impressed!

I'm truly impressed!

How can you possibly cover this up?

Is it a test to get close to the Holy Lord's wife?

If he really participated in the destruction of the Jiang family, wouldn't the ancestor have just taken off his pants and done it?

He scrambled to his feet, clinging to a sliver of hope as he looked towards Meng Luoli and Meng Yuxuan on the other side of the platform, hoping they would come to their senses and expose his far-fetched explanation.

But reality greatly disappointed him.

Meng Luoli and Meng Yuxuan both nodded slightly, clearly agreeing with their eldest sister Meng Anran's deduction. Their eyes were filled with only worry for Xu Pingsheng, without a trace of reproach.

Xu Yuan silently cried out in his heart:

No way, have you all been bewitched by the ancestor?

Is it really that brainless?

Only Bai Ruoning, who sat quietly on the ice chair to the side, had her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed, and a thoughtful look flashed in her eyes.

Since her failure to ascend to immortality and her firsthand glimpse of the vast star barrier separating the heavens, she realized that the path between immortals and mortals had been completely severed, that she was powerless to ascend to immortality, and that she could not even protect the world of Yunmengze.

Just after she finished her dejected seclusion, she learned that Yunmengze had changed hands and the new master had reached an agreement with the secret realm. Therefore, she had always wanted to meet the new master of Yunmengze, Xu Pingsheng.

During this time together, she became best friends with Meng Anran and the other two women, and also heard countless trivial rumors about Xu Pingsheng.

But through this incident today, she truly realized that the three women were already completely devoted to Xu Pingsheng.

They didn't question this outrageous and absurd behavior at all; instead, they actively sought out a righteous explanation for it.

If Xu Pingsheng could make such a remarkable woman as Meng Anran, with her exceptional intelligence and composure, willingly succumb to this, is he truly as the servants of the Xu family say, irritable, lustful, stingy, and petty?

Bai Ruoning couldn't help but feel a strong sense of curiosity.

I am eager to learn more about Xu Pingsheng's life.

What magic does it possess, and what are its strengths?

He was able to win the hearts of all three Meng sisters.

Suddenly.

Meng Anran seemed to suddenly remember something, her face turning deathly pale. She hurriedly turned to look at Bai Ruoning beside her, her voice trembling:

"Sister Bai, as the Lord of Yunmeng Marsh, can you truly sense that Xu Lang is still alive?"

"Mm." Bai Ruoning nodded slightly, her tone firm.

"The secret realm's lifeline is connected to him. If Xu Pingsheng were to die, Yunmengze would be immediately banished to the void, and might even be torn apart and annihilated by a void storm. The fact that the secret realm is currently safe is enough to prove that he is still alive."

Upon hearing these words, Meng Anran felt her body go limp and collapsed onto the jade steps of the high platform, her eyes instantly reddening.

"Oh no... I finally understand why there was no response to my messages!"

"He's probably already been captured by Qin Jianjia or Bai Zhixi. Having been publicly humiliated, they're filled with rage and will surely lock her husband in a secret room and subject him to all sorts of abuse!"

"Waaah, I dare not think about it. Xu Lang must have suffered so much..."

Upon hearing this, Meng Luoli and Mu Yuxuan were filled with despair and regret, their hearts clenching.

Why didn't they ever think of this?

If they had known that Xu Pingsheng would be in danger, they would have insisted on rushing out of Yunmengze to find him themselves!

Even Xu Yuan, who was standing to the side, was startled, and an image involuntarily flashed through his mind:

In the dimly lit chamber, Qin Jianjia, her face cold, stomped her little foot hard on Xu Pingsheng's lips, mockingly saying in a low voice, "Don't you love kissing the most? Today I'll let you kiss to your heart's content!"

"Kiss me!! Give me a good kiss!!"

"My husband, Ye Linxiao, perished in the Primordial Secret Realm because of you! You'd better give me a husband in return!!"

"Pay up!! You'd better pay me back handsomely..."

"Can't afford to pay, huh? Then I'll use you to settle the debt..."

Upon realizing this, Xu Yuan suddenly paused in surprise.

That's not right!

The plot has gone off track~~

They even rewarded their ancestors...

Just as the main hall was filled with sorrow and melancholy, a child's clear shouts drifted into the hall from afar.

"Giddy up! Giddy up! Go!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

Xu Meng'er, with her hair in two little braids, was seen riding on Xu Laoda's shoulders, carrying a string of bright red candied hawthorns. She wobbled into the main hall, munching on the candied hawthorns while enthusiastically calling out to customers.

Seeing this, Meng Luoli, who was filled with worry, was instantly overcome by anger and shouted angrily:

"Xu Meng'er! That's your brother! How could you use him as a mount and act so recklessly?"

"No, no, no! Second Master, please don't blame me!"

Old Master Xu quickly raised his hand to stop him, showing no sign of grievance on his face, but instead plastered a fawning smile, "My little darling's happiness is the most important thing, I'm willing to be your slave!"

Xu Meng'er is the only precious daughter in the entire Xu family. It's rare for her to suddenly feel like riding a horse. How could he miss it?

This opportunity was won by defeating a few lousy younger brothers with his fists.

He had already prepared a photo stone to record the whole process, so that when Old Deng returned in the future, he could use the footage to ask for many benefits.

Xiao Meng'er was publicly reprimanded by Meng Luoli. Her little mouth twitched, and she retorted loudly, unconvinced:

"Hmph, why can't I ride it?"

"Doesn't Mother often treat Father... like a horse?"
