Bring a scumbag girl to bully me, and you are afraid of using modern weapons.

This news quickly spread throughout the martial arts world and cities across the world. Those who were unaware of the situation were discussing what heinous crime the Zhan family had committed to cause the Xuanji Sect and the Yuyong Kingdom to mobilize such a large force.

Even the Emperor of Yuyong Kingdom bypassed the Emperor of Luofeng Kingdom and issued an imperial decree to Mincheng to kill all nine clans of the Zhan family?

Zhongli Xiao not only issued an order to attack the underworld, but also sent people to Mincheng.

It seems that this seemingly peaceful world is about to be plunged into bloody chaos again.

"Master, Mr. Xie and Miss Xie are back." A guard came in to report.

"They're back! Then please invite them in." The head of the Xiao family stood up and looked outside the door.

Zhongli Xiao and the two elders were surprised to hear that they came back so soon.

After a while, Xie Wanying, Xie Jinglan, Beitang Yuan and Zhu Yichen appeared at the door.

"Thank you, Master Xie, Miss Xie, you are back. Thank you for your hard work along the way."

The head of the Xiao family came forward and his eyes fell on Xie Wanying. "I wonder who this is..."

"This is my grandmother." Xie Jinglan introduced them, "Grandma, this is the head of the Xiao family."

"It turns out to be Patriarch Xiao. I've heard of your great name for a long time." Xie Wanying politely performed a martial arts salute to Patriarch Xiao.

"It's Duke Li who has come to visit. I'm so sorry for not welcoming you!" Patriarch Xiao bowed respectfully and then gestured to her, "Duke Li, you've come all this way. Please take a seat here."

"Master Xiao, you're too polite!" Xie Wanying nodded slightly to him. When she raised her eyes, she saw the man in white sitting in the seat, and her expression was obviously stunned for a moment.

The second elder also looked up at her. The two of them looked at each other, with some unexpected surprise in their eyes, but they only stayed there for a few seconds before looking away without saying a word.

Xie Wanying looked at Zhongli Xiao who was sitting up, and bowed, "Thank you, Sect Master Zhongli and the elders, for coming to help. Wanying is very grateful."

"Duke Li, there's no need to be polite. Zhan Zhang has done all sorts of evil things. People like them who are extremely evil should be killed by everyone to restore justice to the world." Zhongli Xiao said lightly.

Xie Jinglan was standing next to her grandmother, and she saw the subtle reaction between her and the second elder, and she was thinking about something in her mind.

My grandmother and the second elder are of the same age and are both from Shengjing. Could there be something going on between them?

Xie Wanying pursed her lips slightly, walked to the location where the head of the Xiao family pointed, and sat down next to the second elder.

Beitang Yuan and others also bowed to everyone present and then took their seats.

"Yuan'er, how are you doing?" Zhongli Xiao asked them first.

"We have burned down the snake demon's lair. Apart from the snake demons roaming outside, there is no other snake demon there." Beitang Yuan replied.

"All burned to death?" Both the Xiao family father and son were shocked.

The snake demon has magical powers and cannot be killed by ordinary fire.

In the past, some people tried to burn the snake demons to death with fire, but it was useless. There were caves and rivers in there, and they could not be burned to death.

"I heard that Miss Xie is a fire-type martial spirit?" The head of the Xiao family heard from Xiao Huaiyu that Xie Jinglan burned Master Yufeng to death with fire.

But even if she was a fire-type martial spirit, she didn't have such strong power to burn down the entire snake demon's territory.

Beitang Yuan and Xie Jinglan didn't say anything, which was considered as their agreement.

She used the ninth level of Taiyin Fire. Any creature in the formation, even if it was hiding underground, would have no chance of survival.

"Lan'er is great. She brings honor to my master." Zhong Lixiao smiled. He was so lucky that he picked up such a precious disciple for free.

Xie Jinglan smiled at him and asked, "Master, Master Xiao, how has Mincheng been these past two days?"

"It's still the same. The Zhan family hasn't taken any action. According to the information we received, eight sects and three large families have already come to the scene after receiving Zhan Zhang's obituary. We also want to wait for you to come back to discuss this matter." The head of the Xiao family answered her.

"Who is here?" Xie Jinglan asked. She wanted to see who dared to be the enemy of Xuan Ji Sect?

Xiao Huaiqian took over and said, "There are people from the royal families of Luofeng and Nanyang, and Mingxu Zhenren of the Kunlun Sect..."

Mingxu Zhenren of the Kunlun Sect? Xie Jinglan and Beitang Yuan exchanged a glance.

He sneered in his heart, thinking that this person was finally going to show up, saving them the trouble of going to Kunlun Mountain to look for him.

Later, Xiao Huaiqian talked about the eight sects, which were all small and insignificant sects. They had a good relationship with the Zhan family in the past. To put it bluntly, they were just dogs served by the Zhan family, coming when called and leaving when dismissed. This time, their master issued a death notice, how dare they not come?

"You just came back, so go down and rest first!" Zhong Li Xiao saw that they were all exhausted and had tired looks on their faces, so he let them go down and rest first.

"Alright." Beitang Yuan stood up first and bowed, "Then I will take my leave."

Xie Wanying and Zhu Yichen also stood up and said goodbye, and the four of them left the lobby.

Xiao Huaiqian followed them out and wanted to arrange another guest room for Xie Wanying.

But Xie Wanying declined, saying that she just wanted to live in the same room with her granddaughter.

If she lived separately from Lan'er, she wouldn't be able to enter her space often.

Her space is full of rare things, and she hasn't seen enough.

Seeing that she insisted, Xiao Huaiqian had to give up.

After returning to the guest room where they were staying, Beitang Yuan and Zhu Yichen did not go back to their own rooms, but followed Xie Jinglan to her room.

"Lan'er, we want to go into your space and soak in the hot spring water." Zhu Yichen felt a little embarrassed and his face flushed.

"Okay." Seeing that there was no one from the Xiao family here, Xie Jinglan used her mind to send all three of them into the space.

But she didn't follow him in because they hadn't had lunch yet and Xiao Huaiqian would have someone bring food over.

Sure enough, after waiting for a while, two servants brought two food boxes, as well as tea, some snacks, fruits and other things.

Xie Jinglan asked the two to put their things down and told them that it was nothing serious and there was no need to disturb them.

The two servants responded and retreated.

Xie Jinglan put the food into the space and let everyone eat first.

Before they had finished their meal, the little squirrel and the little bees came back.

Unfortunately, Mrs. Xie’s whereabouts have not been found.

"Little girl, your mother may have been sent out of the Zhan Mansion. We have searched the entire Zhan Mansion, but still couldn't find her." The little squirrel's voice was a little serious.

"Zhan Zhang is very suspicious. We suspect he knows he's being watched. Sometimes he uses code words when talking to people and is very cautious." The little bee buzzed to her.

"My mother is not in the Zhan Mansion?" Xie Jinglan pondered. Her mother's blood is precious, and she needs to draw blood frequently. Zhan Zhang would not send her too far away.

"Have you also looked for the other courtyards of the Zhan family?"

"I've looked everywhere. I know how many villas the Zhan family has." The little squirrel said helplessly.

"If it really doesn't work, we will use Zhan Sheng to force Zhan Zhang to hand over Madam Xie." Beitang Yuan said with a cold face.

"Do you know where the Nether Palace is?" Xie Jinglan asked the little squirrel again. She had heard that the Nether Palace was in Mincheng. She had been so busy looking for her mother recently that she had forgotten about the Nether Palace.

They have now wiped out the Snake Demon Clan, and now it is the turn of the Netherworld Palace.
