Childhood Memories, the Truth About the Bai Clan

Inside the main hall, Nan Xiao was resting with his eyes closed.

The moment the Divine Son Hall stirred, he suddenly opened his eyes, and with a flash, rushed towards the Divine Son Hall.

At the same time, all the elders set off, and Nan Qingyuan Nan Yushan appeared in the Divine Son Hall in an instant.

Sensing their approach, the System Light Orb instantly returned to Nan Xunran's Sea of Consciousness, and the dark figure waved and said, "See you next time."

Just as Nan Qingyuan and her companion stepped closer, the dark figure vanished in the blink of an eye, disappearing without a trace.

Nan Qingyuan quickly stepped forward, took Nan Xunran's arm, and asked with concern, "Xiao-Ran, how are you feeling?"

Nan Xunran shook her head slightly.

Nan Qingyuan raised her hand and gently stroked his wrist, her spiritual energy flowing through his body like water.

A moment later, she breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed Xiao Ran was indeed unharmed. She had been terrified last time; she hadn't expected Xiao-Ran to gain a second Authority so quickly.

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps approached, and Nan Xiao and the elders rushed over.

Upon seeing the two, he quickly bowed and said, "Ninth Ancestor, Thirteenth Ancestor."

The two nodded slightly, and Nan Xiao hurriedly stepped forward, grasped Nan Xunran's shoulders with both hands, and asked anxiously, "Ran'er, are you alright?"

Nan Xunran smiled calmly and reassured him, "Father, I'm fine."

Crimson Plume Sacred Land

Pei Zimo stared wide-eyed at the words that appeared in the sky above the Sacred Domain, and the thing in his hand fell to the ground with a "thud".

His mouth gaped open, and he nudged Pei Ziheng beside him in disbelief, his voice trembling slightly. "Isn't that the direction of the Nan Clan?"

Pei Ziheng nodded slowly, his expression grave. "It seems our lord has gained new Authority."

At this moment, everyone in the Sacred Domain also noticed this scene, and an uproar broke out, with everyone discussing it.

"The Nan Clan again??"

"Could it still be the Divine Son of the Nan Clan?"

"The strength of that Nan Clan is such that even the elders of those aristocratic families might not be his match, let alone his contemporaries!"

"Damn it, why does Nan Xunran have to be a member of the Nan Clan? I really want to snatch him away from me!"

Bai Clan

Bai Wanying sat upright in the hall, turning the pages of a book in her hands.

Suddenly, her gaze sharpened as she saw the words appearing in the air. She abruptly stood up, nearly dropping the scroll in her hand.

She raised her hand and waved it lightly; a letter appeared in her palm.

She turned to the servant beside her and ordered, "Send someone to the Nan Clan immediately with a message."

The Bai Clan's ceremony is about to begin, so it's a good opportunity to have Ran'er come over.

Just then, the elders of the Bai Clan rushed here because of matters concerning Authority.

I heard Bai Wanying's words as soon as I entered the door.

An elder looked troubled and hesitated before saying, "Is it appropriate to bring him to the Bai Clan?"

Bai Wanying smiled slightly, but the smile didn't reach her eyes; instead, it carried a hint of coldness. "What? You're unwilling?"

The elder's heart skipped a beat, and he unconsciously avoided her gaze.

The second elder then spoke up, saying, "It's fine to let him come."

Bai Wanying snorted lightly, her gaze sweeping over everyone. "Ran'er may not be willing to come. He hasn't set foot in the Bai Clan for a long time, don't you all know that?"

Her eyes held a hint of reproach. "I don't believe you've never reflected on your initial decision."

Recalling Nan Xunran's childhood, he remembered that he had visited the Bai Clan, where the mythical beast Xiezhi, which the Bai Clan worshipped, showed fear towards him.

The Xiezhi has always been able to distinguish between good and evil, which is why the elders of the Bai Clan harbored prejudice against him.

At this moment, the elders remained silent. Upon careful consideration, they realized that the Xiezhi had only been frightened and had not attacked Nan Xunran.

At that time, facing the strange behavior of the Xiezhi and the suspicious gazes of the crowd, Nan Xunran simply stood there indifferently, his posture straight yet exuding loneliness.

His eyes were indifferent, as if devoid of human emotion, so cold that it sent chills down one's spine.

Later they learned that Nan Xunran just experienced a major upheaval, lost his memory, and his personality had changed drastically as a result.

Because of this, the Bai Clan missed the opportunity to befriend this genius, and their relationship with Bai Wanying even became quite tense.

The elder slowly spoke, "Sigh... Let's try our best to ease the tension this time."

"We have indeed made mistakes in the past, but if we can sincerely make amends now, there may still be a chance for things to turn around."

Bai Wanying's expression softened slightly as she thought to herself: Of the elders in the Bai Clan, apart from the eldest elder who is reasonable, the others are either incompetent or short-sighted.

When the Lineage was in dire straits, instead of thinking about how to improve their strength, they only tried to get other Lineage to help the Bai Clan through marriage alliances.

Now that the Bai Clan is growing stronger, it's time to make some adjustments.

The world believed that the Bai Clan was still in decline and going downhill. Little did they know that those seemingly mediocre and incompetent elders were merely a facade to deceive others.

The truly powerful fighting force is hidden within the Bai Clan, and has been developing in secret for many years.
