I was reincarnated as a single school beauty
Chapter 18 Argument and Comers
There was endless discussion all around, but Yi Meng seemed unaware of it. Instead of looking at the leader and elders of the Nightmare Beast Tribe in front of him, he turned his head and looked at the crowd.
Yun Xi followed its gaze and saw the white-haired man who was staring at her with a burning gaze.
Yimeng looked at the man and said with a slight ups and downs in his voice: "Dad, long time no see."
With a simple greeting, the man's eyes instantly became moist, and crystal tears flowed down his eyes. He walked out of the crowd tremblingly, with the whole scene of a dream reflected in his eyes.
"Yier...I'm sorry..."
Yun Xi watched from the side, quite surprised by this person. No wonder he had been staring at her before, but he turned out to be Yi Meng's father.
Also, after Yimeng's news was exposed, the most excited person should not be Mengtang and others who framed Yimeng in the first place, but his parents.
It's just...why only Yi Meng's father appears?
Yun Xi's eyes narrowed slightly, and she had a bad guess in her mind.
"Mengren, now is not the time for you father and daughter to reminisce about the past!"
On the high seat above, an elder interrupted the reunion between Yimeng and his father with a cold voice.
On the way from Tianling County to Dreamland, Yimeng and Yunxi briefly talked about some people from the Nightmare Beast Clan.
In the entire Nightmare Beast Clan, except for the patriarch Mengyuan, who is a strong man in the Soul Killing Realm, there are a total of five elders left, all of whom are in the Luck Spirit Realm.
Compared with the Tianling Alliance, this strength seems a bit inadequate, but after all, the Tianling Alliance is the top force that integrates all the powerful people in the entire Tianling Continent, while the Nightmare Beast Clan is only one of the ten clans of the Sky Beasts.
Among the five elders, in addition to Meng Heng and Meng Qi, whom Yun Xi has already met, there are three others named Meng Xiang, Meng Tao, and Meng Ren.
Mengren is Yimeng's father, and it was he who secretly sent Yimeng out of the Dream Realm. However, judging from the current situation, Mengren should have been removed from the position of elder.
The elder who interrupted Meng Ren and Yimeng at this time was Meng Tao, who was also from the Mengtang sect.
Meng Heng looked at Meng Tao coldly and said: "It is a great blessing for father and daughter to reunite. Meng Tao, are you jealous because you don't want others to be kind to you?"
"fart!"
Meng Tao snorted and said: "The purpose of bringing Mengyi back this time is not to let her come back to reminisce about the past! She has been on the run for decades in fear of crime, and now it's time to clear up the accounts of that year!"
Meng Xiang, the last elder of the Nightmare Beast Clan besides Meng Tao, also said leisurely: "Although Mengyi's niece only has one spirit body left at this moment for some reason, as a disciple of the Nightmare Beast Clan, if she has done something, she should She will be punished just like her sister."
Yimeng's eyes suddenly condensed, and he turned to look at Meng Xiang: "Have you locked up Meng Ling?"
Meng Xiang's eyes were indifferent: "Back then, the two of you sisters colluded to steal the Nightmare Pearl. Naturally, you both had to be punished. It's just that you were lucky and escaped first through some means."
He said, looking at Meng Ren beside Yimeng.
Mengtang suddenly said at this time: "Clan chief, elders, Mengyi has not only been hiding in Tianling Continent for decades, she has even signed a soul contract with a human woman."
"Wow!"
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the people of the Nightmare Beast Clan looked at Yi Meng in shock.
As Heavenly Beasts, they have the most noble bloodline of the Monster Clan. In any Heavenly Beast Clan's clan rules, there are strict requirements that prohibit the children of the clan from signing contracts and falling in love with humans!
Even between the Heavenly Spirit Alliance and the Heavenly Beast Tribe, the relationship can only be a cooperative one at best.
If the Heavenly Spirit Alliance wanted to enslave a certain race of heavenly beasts, not only would it be impossible for it to agree, but the other races of heavenly beasts would also never allow such a thing to happen.
Meng Tao's eyes were sharp, and he stared closely at Yimeng. It was obvious that in his eyes, Yimeng had really brought shame to the entire Nightmare Beast Clan.
"Who is the human being who signed a contract with you?!"
he asked sharply.
Yun Xi crossed her arms and looked at Meng Tao with neither humility nor arrogance, and said, "It's me, what's wrong?"
Lines of sight were like sharp knives scraping at Yun Xi’s body,
She was not afraid and looked at Meng Tao quietly.
Meng Tao said: "Miss Yun, you may not know what signing a contract with humans means to the heavenly beasts."
Yun Xi replied: "Elder Mengtao, you may not know that if I hadn't signed a contract with Yimeng back then, you really wouldn't be able to see it now. It has been dead for decades."
Even for a nightmare beast, it is impossible for the soul to survive for a long time after the death of the body. When Yun Xi met Yi Meng in Qingxi Village, its body had already died. If it were not for the signing of the contract that allowed it to cling to Yun Xi, Living with the tide, the dream at this time may have disappeared long ago.
However, Meng Tao, who heard Yun Xi's words, not only did not show any understanding, but said coldly: "It is a defector from the Nightmare Beast Clan, and it is not a pity to die! But it happened to violate the clan rules again in order to survive. , this is adding crime upon crime!”
Meng Tao stood up and shouted to Meng Yuan: "Clan leader, I apply to have Meng Yi nailed to the top of Huan Mountain in front of all the people of the clan!"
"you dare!"
Meng Ren shouted angrily and saluted the patriarch: "Clan Chief, after our investigation, we found that there was another hidden story behind the incident. Mengyi was most likely framed. This matter needs to be investigated from the beginning!"
Meng Tao also said sternly: "What else is there to investigate! The evidence is conclusive that Mengyi took the Nightmare Bead and handed it to Meng Ling, hoping that Meng Ling would take her away from the Dream Realm! What else is there to say!"
Meng Heng interrupted: "It's not like you haven't checked Meng Ling's memory. She doesn't even know that the box contains the Nightmare Bead!"
Meng Xiang chuckled and said: "Elder Meng Ren's methods are amazing. Maybe he edited Mengling's memory in advance. Furthermore, even if Mengling doesn't know, what about Mengyi? Why, the thing was sent out of her hands, she Don’t you know what’s in the box?”
Meng Heng said with cold eyes: "That's because she was plotted! You all know who is plotting against her!"
He said to Mengyuan: "Clan leader, when Mengyi was still young, she had no idea where the Nightmare Pearl was hidden, so it was impossible for her to steal the Nightmare Pearl! She was able to steal the elixir in Mengyi's box in this way. The only person who entered the Nightmare Pearl was Mengyi’s maid Meng Chen. As long as we can find her, we will definitely be able to restore Mengyi’s innocence!”
Meng Qi said coldly: "What a joke! If she doesn't know the location of the Nightmare Pearl, does Meng Chen know it! And who in the entire Nightmare Beast Clan doesn't know that Meng Chen disappeared with Mengyi on the day she disappeared. She must be He ran away with Mengyi, and he might even be killed and silenced by Mengyi! You said you found him, where to find him?"
"Clan Chief! The evidence of what happened back then has long been conclusive. Now that Mengyi has been successfully brought back, please ask the Clan Chief to decide the punishment!"
In the open-air hall, the arguing voices of several elders kept echoing. They kept putting forward their own opinions on the matter of Yi Meng, but Mengyuan, who was sitting at the head of the table, did not speak for a long time.
From the current situation, it is not difficult to see that although the Nightmare Beast Clan is divided, only Meng Ren and the elder Meng Heng are actually on the side of Yi Meng. Even if the others want to support them, their status is slightly insufficient.
Mengtang stood aside and listened to the arguments of the elders. The smile on his lips was so light that it left no trace. However, he soon discovered that neither Yunxi nor Mengyi seemed to have any emotional fluctuations because of these arguments. .
He felt vaguely uneasy in his heart.
After the elders of the Nightmare Beast Clan had reached the end of their argument, Yun Xi slowly spoke.
"Clan Chief Mengyuan, as well as the elders of the Nightmare Beast Clan, I would like to ask, is the punishment received by Yimeng based on her guilt of stealing from the Nightmare Beast Clan?"
Mengyuan, who had remained silent, looked at Yun Xi. His eyes were slightly focused, and before the other elders spoke, he suddenly said softly: "This is natural."
Meng Tao said: "Clan leader, the fact that Mengyi signed a contract with humans has nothing to do with stealing the Nightmare Pearl! Moreover, it changed its name privately, which is extremely unfilial."
"Elder Mengtao, I think that if Yimeng had not been chased out of the country by the Nightmare Beast Clan, none of what you said would have happened. Whether it was changing the name or signing a contract, it was just a helpless move after going through hardships. , of course, if the Nightmare Beast Clan insists on believing that Yimeng should be held responsible for these things. Then, I also have a question to ask everyone here."
There was no wind in the mountains, and Yun Xi stood in the center of the hall. Her slender body was tall and tall, and she had a high temperament. Facing the strong men of the Nightmare Beast Clan, she spoke naturally without any fear or fear.
Even the many children of the Nightmare Beast Clan who didn't like Yun Xi had to give her a certain amount of recognition after seeing Yun Xi's performance.
Yun Xi paused for a moment, then asked: "Everyone of the Nightmare Beast Clan, according to your clan rules, what kind of punishment should you receive if you falsely accuse a direct bloodline inheritor and cause him to die unjustly?"
After asking this question, the expressions of many people present changed.
Mengtang, in particular, lowered his head and his heart skipped a beat. His intuition told him that Yun Xi was more than just asking.
Meng Tao sternly said: "How presumptuous! Yun Xi, this is the Nightmare Beast Clan, not your Heavenly Spirit Alliance! There is conclusive evidence that Mengyi stole the Nightmare Pearl back then. You are questioning the judgment of our Nightmare Beast Clan!"
Yun Xi looked at Meng Tao and smiled slightly. The smile was so beautiful that it felt like a spring breeze.
"Elder Mengtao seems afraid to answer my question directly."
Meng Tao looked at him coldly: "You are a talkative woman, you are not qualified to ask me to answer your question!"
Yun Xi ignored him and looked at Meng Heng: "Elder Meng Heng, why don't you help me clarify my doubts?"
Meng Heng said seriously: "According to the regulations of the Nightmare Beast Clan, anyone who maliciously accuses a disciple of the same clan will be punished with confinement, amputation of feet, removal of position, or even removal of ancestral home, depending on the seriousness of the case."
Yun Xi asked again: "What about the accomplice?"
"Similar punishments will be imposed depending on the seriousness of the circumstances."
Listening to Yun Xi and Meng Heng's questions and answers, Meng Tao frowned. When would it be a human woman's turn to dictate matters within their dignified Nightmare Beast Clan?
He scolded Yun Xi: "Yun Xi, what can you do if you just ask these questions! It's not your turn as an outsider to intervene in the affairs of our Nightmare Beast Tribe! Do you have any evidence to prove that Meng Xi? You must be innocent!"
"The evidence..."
Yun Xi smiled faintly and had a profound charm in his eyes, which made Meng Tao and others inexplicably shocked.
"Of course I don't have any."
The second half of Yun Xi's words directly made them feel relieved, and at the same time they felt a sense of anger at being fooled!
Meng Tao ignored Yun Xi and turned directly to Mengyuan and said: "Clan leader, the evidence that Meng Yi stole the Nightmare Pearl has long been proven. Now that she has been brought back, please ask the clan leader to punish her!"
Meng Yuan took a deep look at Meng Tao, and was about to speak when he suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked towards the side of the main hall.
At this time, a figure was running hurriedly down the mountain. After arriving at the main hall, he said loudly:
"Report to the clan leader! The Dragon Turtle Clan's Guizizhou, the Golden Crow Clan's Jin Mingyue, the Diniu Clan's Niu Wenhua, the Snow Fox Clan's young chief Bai Qing, and the third elder Bai Guanli have arrived outside Huanshan Mountain, asking to see the clan leader!"
A report caused an uproar among the entire Nightmare Beast Clan.
How could people from the Dragon Turtle, Golden Crow and other tribes come over at this time?
Meng Tao looked at Yun Xi with a scrutinizing gaze and said, "Did you call me?"
Yun Xi's face was full of doubts, and he said with a smile: "Elder Mengtao, you are so funny. I have followed your people to Huanshan Mountain since Tianling left. Don't you think that I Are you able to contact other members of the Sky Beast Clan without being noticed by the two elders Meng Qi Mengheng?"
Meng Tao looked at Meng Qi, who shook his head in an extremely slight arc.
Meng Yuan, who was sitting in the first seat, said: "Let them come in."
"yes."
The barrier of Huanshan was opened, and not long after, figures came from the mountain road.
Everyone looked over and saw that Bai Qing, the young patriarch of the Snow Fox Clan, was sitting on the shoulders of the transformed Niu Wenhua. Beside them, Gui Zizhou from the Dragon Turtle Clan and Jin Mingyue from the Golden Crow Clan were also walking behind them. At the end of the group was a handsome man dressed in white, with an upright posture and a face as beautiful as a crown jewel.
Many young people present did not know this man, but it was impossible for Meng Tao and others not to know.
This man is Bai Guanli, the third elder of the Snow Fox Clan.
The arrival of a group of demons caused a huge change in the atmosphere of the entire Nightmare Beast Clan. A pair of eyes fell on them, and all the Nightmare Beast Clan disciples became silent.
Mengxiang asked: "Bai Guanli, what are you doing here?"
The relationship between the Nightmare Beast Clan and the Snow Fox Clan has always been bad. At this time, the third elder of the Snow Fox Clan appeared with their young clan leader. It must be that they have no good intentions.
Bai Guanli didn't even look at Meng Xiang, but looked directly at Mengyuan who was sitting in the first seat, clasped his hands in his fists and said: "Clan Chief Mengyuan, I took the liberty of coming here today to tell you something."
Mengyuan's eyes were indifferent: "What needs so many people?"
Bai Qing sat on Niu Wenhua's shoulder, resting his little paws on the latter's head, and said: "I called them. Chief Mengyuan, in the past few days, I heard that Young Master Mengyi of the Nightmare Beast Clan has returned. , we were old friends with Mengyi back then, so we naturally wanted to meet her. I came today just to see her, will Mengyuan Clan Chief not mind?"
Mengyuan glanced at Gui Zizhou, Jin Mingyue and Niu Wenhua, and all three of them saluted Mengyuan.
"What about after the meeting?"
Mengyuan asked quietly.
A cute and cunning smile appeared on Bai Qing's fox face: "When friends meet again, it is inevitable to give gifts. This is the first gift."
Bai Qing waved his little claw, the spiritual power dispersed, and a curtain of light appeared in the sky.
