Chapter 264 Unveiled
Almost as soon as Wei Wuxian's nonchalant voice appeared, Wen Ruohan's extremely out-of-control demeanor vanished instantly. The speed was so fast that it seemed like a bizarre and illusory phantom. His bright red tongue lightly licked his sharp teeth, and then his handsome face was replaced by a smile that was both arrogant and courteous, polite and sincere, befitting a superior.
With a calm, composed, and perfectly measured tone, he raised an eyebrow and asked, "Nephew Wei, what insights do you have to offer me?"
When Wen Ruohan's approachable voice entered his ears, Wen Zhibai's ears tightened instantly. He knew that his cousin, who always had a wild streak, was serious this time. He hoped that the boy's subsequent performance would satisfy his cousin's wishes, otherwise...
Wen Zhibai's slightly worried gaze swept quickly over the group of people who were still in meditation. Although the Wen family was superior to all other families, they did not want to rely on the old families of Bai, Lan, and Nie, their loyal affiliated families in the same camp, and the rising stars of Yiling Wei and Huaiyang Lin in this era of great competition, so as not to let other families benefit from the situation!
Wen Zhibai's mind raced, and countless complex schemes flashed through his mind in an instant.
Wei Wuxian, completely oblivious to the myriad thoughts swirling in Wen Zhibai's mind, merely shuddered slightly in alarm. He had just endured Wen Ruohan's intense gaze—a gaze that seemed to be that of a kind and approachable elder looking at his most prized junior—and managed a dry smile before forcing a bow. "No, no, I dare not accept such 'guidance'! Sect Leader Wen is far too kind. I merely gained the upper hand temporarily..."
The more he spoke, the more awkward he became, his eyes wandering aimlessly. Just then, he noticed that Wei Chaoyan and the others were gradually ending their meditation and opening their eyes. He decided to steel himself and boldly meet Wen Ruohan's seemingly calm but actually oppressive and sharp gaze, and said frankly, "I suppose Sect Leader Wen has sensed something from this spiritual essence!"
His bright, clear eyes fell on Wen Ruohan's fingertips, which were stained with a shimmering green hue. He spoke slowly and solemnly: "The spiritual essence of this object is formed from the laws of heaven and earth. The information contained within it is actually the information contained within heaven and earth themselves."
He paused, subconsciously glancing around to make sure everyone was alert, before uttering, word by word, the earth-shattering news that, apart from Wei Chaoyan and a few others who knew the truth, the rest of the people vaguely sensed some of the inside story: "The Golden Core stage in this realm has reached its limit; there is no room for further advancement beyond that!"
"This is impossible!" An elder of the Lan Clan, well-versed in countless ancient texts and not from the Gusu Lan Clan, exclaimed in shock, tugging at his long beard. "The clan annals and ancient texts of all the aristocratic families record the ascension of their ancestors! If what Young Master Wei says is true, then wouldn't that prove that countless ancestors worked together for countless years to weave a colossal lie that has deceived the world for so long?!"
"That's impossible!" The round-faced elder with long eyebrows solemnly and firmly denied Wei Ying's words.
The remaining elders of the Wen, Lan, and Nie families all nodded in support of the round-faced, long-browed Lan clan elder's opinion.
At this moment, Wen Ruohan's eyes darkened for a moment, his expression unwavering, and he remained silent, maintaining a sincere attitude of humbly listening to Wei Ying's insightful opinions.
Having glimpsed only the tip of the iceberg of the truth about this world from the learning space, Qingheng-jun calmly and subtly intercepted Lan Qiren and Lin Yingsu's doubts with her eyes, remaining silent and not easily expressing her opinion.
Nie Changfeng knew he wasn't as clever as Qinghengjun and the others, so he had already decided to follow in Qinghengjun's footsteps and copy his methods. Therefore, he also wisely kept his mouth shut and listened attentively, trying not to miss any sound.
As for the few intelligent people like Wen Zhibai, they all stood respectfully with their hands at their sides, waiting for those in the know to explain themselves.
As expected, Wei Ying did not disappoint them. He fluttered his beautiful black eyelashes a few times and continued to explain the science with the same expression and pace: "This blah blah... based on blah blah... it can be confirmed that this conclusion is correct!"
Wei Ying combined the knowledge systems of the Xuan Realm and the Chinese world, and demonstrated the authenticity of this conclusion from various aspects, including metaphysics and technology, in a detailed, comprehensive, and logically complete manner!
After finishing his long speech, Wei Ying licked his dry lips and, with his usual habit from his many debates in the learning space, added, "Sect Leader Wen, Sect Leader Nie, and the other seniors, did you all understand?"
He was met with dozens of different faces but the same blank, bewildered expression: Σ( ° △ °|||)︴!
Seeing this, Wei Ying felt a lump in his throat, and the mischievous tuft of hair that had been standing proudly on his head suddenly drooped down. He took a deep breath and opened his mouth to try to repeat it again, but this time he slowed down his explanation by 30%.
"Wait!" Qi Ye, who was both amused and exasperated by the unexpected scene before him, immediately raised his voice to stop Wei Ying's futile attempt. He spoke with a gentle yet confident tone, "Second Brother, I will now explain the situation to the seniors. You and Second Brother Lin should rest for a while!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Ying pondered for less than a second before flashing a bright, sun-like smile and loudly agreeing to Qi Ye's idea!
"Then I'll leave it to you, Seven Nights!"
He immediately pulled Lan Zhan, who was concerned about him, with a look of relief and quickly moved to the edge of the crowd, giving space to Qi Ye, who was neither humble nor arrogant and was calm and composed.
