Unfortunately, the flying boat was flying too fast and soon left everyone far behind.

"hateful!"

Zhao Qian hit the big tree in front of him hard, breaking the trunk which was as thick as a bucket.

"Hurry up and cross the river and chase them! They must know something!"

The flying boat landed opposite Liuguang Lake. The three of them followed the path they had explored before and headed towards the canyon. They finally arrived safely two days later.

Outside the canyon, the originally deserted place is now home to many monks.

Various flags fluttered in the wind, dividing the area into spheres of influence of varying sizes.

Several foundation-building monks stood in the air to maintain order.

As soon as Shen Zixuan, Meng Wan and the others appeared, they attracted a lot of people's attention.

After all, anyone who can come here at this time is no small character.

But when everyone was looking at the three people and guessing their backgrounds, a burly middle-aged man in a green robe walked towards them.

"Zixuan Zihan, you are finally here."

"Uncle Three!"

Shen Zixuan walked quickly to the middle-aged man and saluted respectfully.

The middle-aged man nodded, his gaze lingered on Meng Wan for a moment, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he had some vague guesses in his heart.

"Zixuan, this is..."

"Uncle San, this is Zhang Wan'er, my friend." Shen Zixuan introduced.

"So it's Miss Zhang. Seeing how Miss Zhang has such great cultivation at such a young age, her family background must be pretty good, right?"

The middle-aged man smiled slightly and looked at her as if she were a junior.

"Senior Shen, you are too polite. Our Meng family is just a small family."

Meng Wan bowed slightly, but secretly became alert in her heart. This third uncle of the Shen family was actually a foundation-building cultivator.

The aura on his body is not even weaker than that of Meng Yunfeng, who is at the third level of foundation building.

"I have set up a simple camp here. Let's go in first and talk later."

The middle-aged man walked and said, "I have been busy recently. After receiving your message, I rushed here after finishing my work.

I was planning to pick you up after I got the camp ready, but I didn't expect you to come on your own."

"We were originally in the Liuguang Lake area, but in the past few days, there are more and more independent cultivators outside..."

Shen Zixuan briefly told Shen Yi about their experiences in the Tianheng Mountains, including the six-winged flying ants under the canyon.

After listening to this, Shen Yi waved his hand disapprovingly.

"Don't worry. We have already jointly cleared out some of the things in the canyon. The remaining ones sense the danger and dare not show up easily.

However, I did hear some news about this cave these days."

He frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "It seems that this beast tide is indeed strange. I have also received some information, and it seems to be related to the demon cultivators."

"Demon cultivator?"

Shen Zixuan and Shen Zihan were both shocked, with solemn expressions on their faces.

"Well, the details are still unclear. We will know after the cave is completely opened."

Shen Yi said, "Tomorrow is the night of the full moon. You should stay here for the time being and don't run around."

"Yes, Third Uncle." Shen Zixuan replied respectfully.

Shen Yi turned his gaze to Meng Wan, with a hint of scrutiny in his eyes.

"Miss Zhang, I heard from Zixuan that you are proficient in refining weapons?"

"I can't say I'm proficient in it, I can only say I'm interested in it."

Meng Wan was very humble and put herself in the position of a junior.

"I see that you have a calm and steady aura and a solid foundation, but I heard Zixuan mention that you are not good at fighting?"

Shen Yi continued to ask.

"To answer your question, Senior, when I was at home, my father only asked me to practice and refine weapons, but did not teach me the techniques of fighting."

Meng Wan replied.

Shen Yi nodded. Some small families would indeed blindly pursue realm when training their children, while ignoring practical combat capabilities.

He asked a few more questions about cultivation, and Meng Wan answered them one by one, responding appropriately.

"Yes, it is rare for a young person to have such accomplishments and insights."

A hint of appreciation appeared on Shen Yi's face, and he took out a palm-sized mirror from his storage ring and handed it to Meng Wan.

"This is our first meeting, so I don't have anything good to give you. Just consider this defensive secret treasure as a gift."

Meng Wan was shocked. This mirror looked ordinary, but it emitted powerful spiritual fluctuations. It was obviously not an ordinary item.

"Senior, this item is valuable. I cannot accept it."

Shen Yi insisted on giving it to you, "Given by elders, you cannot refuse. Just take it."

Meng Wan was embarrassed for a while, but finally, under Shen Zixuan's suggestive look, she stood up, took the talisman, and said respectfully.

"Thank you, Senior Shen!"

"You're welcome, Zixuan's friend, that is, my junior."

Shen Yi waved his hand, obviously not taking this little thing seriously.

He looked at Shen Zixuan, "Zixuan, come with me for a moment. I have something to discuss with you."

Shen Yi said this and stood up and walked towards his tent.

"Okay, Third Uncle."

Shen Zixuan responded and turned to Meng Wan and Shen Zihan.

"Sister Wan'er, Zi Han, you guys take a rest here first, I'll be back soon."

Meng Wan and Shen Zihan stood up to see them off. They watched Shen Yi and Shen Zixuan walk into the tent before sitting down again.

Shen Zihan looked at the secret treasure in Meng Wan's hand, a hint of ridicule flashed across her eyes, but it quickly disappeared, and she said with a smile on her face.

"Sister Wan'er, my Third Uncle is really kind. He gave you such an expensive gift the first time we met."

"Yes, Senior Shen is so generous. I really don't know what to say."

Meng Wan nodded gratefully and calmly put the secret treasure into a separate storage bag.

She didn't dare to use the things given to her by the foundation-building monk, so she decided to find a chance to deal with them.

"Sister Wan'er, you and my brother have been together for such a long time. Tell me the truth, are you satisfied with my brother?"

Shen Zihan asked with a curious look on her face.

"Zi Han, stop making fun of me, I..."

"Oh, Sister Wan'er, please don't hide it from me. How can I not see what my brother feels about you?"

Shen Zihan interrupted her with a smile, a mischievous smile on her face.

Meng Wan lowered her head shyly, "Zi Han, what are you talking about, I..."

"Okay, okay, I won't say any more. I won't say any more."

Seeing that Meng Wan was sincere, Shen Zihan smiled and waved her hand.

"However, Sister Wan'er, let me tell you, although my brother looks a little cold, he is actually very affectionate and very loyal.

Once he sets his mind on a person, he will treat her wholeheartedly, so you must seize the opportunity."

Shen Zihan said this, leaning close to Meng Wan's ear and asking in a low voice.

"Sister Wan'er, tell me honestly, how do you feel about my brother?"

Meng Wan trembled, met Shen Zihan's gaze, and said shyly but firmly.

"Brother Zixuan has saved me from danger many times. I...will not marry anyone but you..."

Hearing these four words as soft as a mosquito's whisper, Shen Zihan was indeed ecstatic. She held Meng Wan's hand and chattered about Shen Zixuan's glorious achievements.
