Chapter 26: The Origin of the Meng Family

~8 min read 1,564 words

There are many industries in the Wendao Sect, with everything for eating, drinking, and playing. Cultivation is not closing a dead gate, and boring cultivation cannot become an immortal. All the entertainment industries that should be there are there.

For example, the Sichuan hot pot mentioned earlier, and for example, the Baixiang Building where the three are going.

Lu Yang heard that the Wendao Sect was not like this before. Before, cultivation was cultivation, and don't engage in these miscellaneous things, which would affect the heart of seeking the Dao.

Later, the old Sect Master and the former elders retired, and the Sect Master and eight elders took office. The Wendao Sect suddenly took on a new look, encouraging everyone to practice cultivation and relax, combining work and rest.

In their words, if these things can affect the heart of seeking the Dao, then what kind of immortal are you seeking?

Lu Yang felt that the current atmosphere of the Wendao Sect was not right. When he became a high-level member of the Wendao Sect, he must rectify it.

Baixiang Building was bustling with noise and excitement. Many Wendao Sect disciples liked to gather here to eat after completing missions or practicing hard, exchanging cultivation insights, mission experiences, etc.

Not to mention anything else, just the taste was better than the cafeteria.

"Waiter, the No. 9 table booked earlier, three sets of bowls and chopsticks, the dishes should be served according to what I ordered earlier."

"Alright, you just watch."

Going to the second floor, the fragrance of the dishes on other tables came, the fragrance was pungent, making people's appetite open, and they secreted saliva unconsciously.

Lu Yang stared at the waiter for a long time, and only withdrew his gaze when the waiter disappeared at the stairs. He found that he couldn't even see through the waiter's cultivation.

Lu Yang and Tao Yaoye looked left and right, both curious about this place.

Lu Yang had food at Tianmen Peak, and Tao Yaoye could cook by herself, so they didn't need to come here.

Meng Jingzhou was quite familiar with this kind of place: "Haven't been here, right? Let me tell you, there are a lot of delicious things here. There is nothing you can't think of, nothing you can't eat. Look at the menu."

Lu Yang took the menu, opened the first page, and was soon attracted by the content.

The first page had no dishes, only an eye-catching prompt: This shop only sells finished products, not ingredients, please forgive me.

The second page was the main feature. The dishes on the menu had two prices: contribution points and spirit stones.

"Steamed Lei Jie Liquid, the essence of thunder tribulation left behind when a cultivator crosses the tribulation, which is of great benefit to understanding the Dao of Thunder."

"Braised Ice Abyss Giant Elephant, Ice Abyss Giant Elephant, lives in the cold far north, is the overlord population of the far north. An adult Ice Abyss Giant Elephant can step on a glacier and face an avalanche without falling."

"Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, this shop has ordinary eggs, Eight-Treasure chicken eggs, Golden Winged Dapeng eggs, and many other types of eggs."

After seeing the price, Lu Yang couldn't help but click his tongue. These things were obviously not for Foundation Establishment cultivators like them to eat, and Foundation Establishment cultivators couldn't afford them.

However, there were also things he could afford, such as stir-fried Grain Bigu Pills.

Seeing Lu Yang's gradually frowning brows, Tao Yaoye thought he was frightened by the price, so she asked with a smile: "What's wrong? What problem did you encounter?"

"Look, the meaning of Grain Bigu is to take the spiritual energy of heaven and earth instead of eating, and taking Grain Bigu Pills can achieve Grain Bigu."

"That's right." Tao Yaoye nodded.

"Then you say, after eating stir-fried Grain Bigu Pills, is it considered eating or Grain Bigu?"

Tao Yaoye and Meng Jingzhou were stunned. At first, they felt that this question was inexplicable, but after thinking about it carefully, they felt that this question was inexplicably profound.

The three called the waiter over and asked him if he knew the answer to this question. The waiter was also stumped.

He had been working for so long, and this was the first time he had encountered a diner asking such a question.

Is it because the serving speed is too slow?

"The price of dishes here is not low, are your contribution points enough?" Lu Yang didn't think much about the Grain Bigu Pill question, but was worried about whether there would be no money to eat.

Meng Jingzhou had done three missions, and he couldn't earn many contribution points in total.

Nominally inviting himself and Tao Yaoye to a big meal, and then the three of them brushing dishes together to pay for the meal seemed to be Meng Jingzhou's style.

"What contribution points, of course, use spirit stones." Meng Jingzhou made the voice of a rich man.

Tao Yaoye looked at Lu Yang with slight surprise, not understanding why he was worried about the Meng family lacking money: "Haven't you heard of the Meng family?"

Lu Yang was puzzled: "Is Meng Jingzhou's Meng family famous?"

The Central Continent is so vast that cultivators can't explore it in their lifetime. There are many families surnamed Meng. Lu Yang doesn't know which one Meng Jingzhou's Meng family is.

He had known Meng Jingzhou for so long, and he hadn't heard Meng Jingzhou talk about his family.

When Meng Jingzhou came to the Wendao Sect to participate in the trial, there was not even an elder accompanying him. Lu Yang thought his family had declined and needed to rely on Meng Jingzhou, a single spirit root, to revitalize the family.

"The most famous one."

Lu Yang's pupils shrank, quite surprised, knowing which one Meng Jingzhou's Meng family was.

There are many Meng families. To say which one is the most famous, of course, it is the Imperial City Meng family.

"Is it the Imperial City Meng family that once fought the world with the ancestors of the Xia Di and established the Great Xia Dynasty?!"

Lu Yang was really surprised. The Imperial City Meng family had a great background. Ten thousand years ago, the world was in chaos. It is often said that heroes come out of troubled times. The ancestors of the Meng family and the ancestors of the Xia Di rose up and fought the world, creating a legendary story that is popular.

The story is still active in the mouths of storytellers in teahouses and on drama stages, enduring for a long time.

Ten thousand years ago, the previous dynasty had internal and external troubles and collapsed, becoming the beginning of troubled times. Demons and sea beasts left their respective territories, wanting to share a piece of the Central Continent, which is full of outstanding people.

The ancestors of the Meng family rose from the ancestral land in the east, conquered the east and west, fought for countless tens of thousands of miles, killed the demons and barbarians to flee to the Demon Domain, the sea beasts hid back to the East China Sea, and the chaotic ministers and thieves and grass-roots heroes bowed their heads.

The ancestors of the Meng family led the army for a thousand years, conquering half of the Central Continent, and were one of the two overlords of the world.

The other overlord was the ancestor of the Xia Di who conquered the other half.

The ancestor of the Xia Di also expelled the barbarians and demons, ended the troubled times, and ruled half the country. The achievements of the two were hard to distinguish.

At that time, everyone in the world thought that the two overlords would either rule half of the Central Continent each, or launch a war to compete for the world.

So all kinds of military strategists began to perform war deductions, calculating which side had the greater advantage, and how the other side should win by weakness.

What everyone didn't expect was that the ancestors of the Meng family and the ancestors of the Xia Di both believed that the continent had been in chaos for a thousand years, with people living in misery and blood drifting, which was a scene of purgatory. If they continued to fight, they didn't know how many years it would be chaotic, and how many people would die by then.

They fought the world to return peace to the world, not for the throne of the dynasty.

So the ancestors of the Meng family and the ancestors of the Xia Di abandoned the army and launched a decisive battle in the vast starry sky as cultivators. That battle collapsed the heavens and the earth, the sun and the moon were dark, the stars fell, and finally, the ancestor of the Xia Di was better, becoming the final winner.

The ancestors of the Meng family admitted defeat and handed over the throne.

At that time, the ancestor of the Xia Di publicly announced that as long as the Great Xia existed for one day, the Meng family would never perish.

The facts are exactly the same. After the establishment of the Great Xia, the Meng family settled in the Imperial City and was not suppressed. ===== CHAPTER 27 =====
