In the Beiming Family Estate.

Inside the meeting hall, the older generation of the Beiming Family was in a heated discussion.

"Someone is actually trying to ruin the reputation of our Beiming Family!?" A bald elder with a long grey beard stated with a fuming expression. It was evident that he was extremely furious about the rumors that had spread in the capital city during the past few days.

In fact, it was not just the bald elder who was wearing an enraged expression. Almost everyone inside the meeting hall had the same look in their eyes.

Sitting on the most prominent seat was an old man with sunken cheeks. His murky eyes flashed with an intense glow as if he was in deep thought. This old man was the supreme elder of the Beiming Family, Supreme Elder Beiming Lei.

Supreme Elder Beiming Lei was a peak 7th-rank Emperor realm expert. Although he looked like a decrepit old man, his great power didn't diminish by a tiny bit even after so many years.

Supreme Elder Beiming Lei took a glance at a middle-aged man that looked to be in his late forties as if he was waiting for the latter to speak.

The middle-aged man felt the supreme elder's familiar stare, so he immediately cleared his throat to get everyone's attention. "Ehem! Ehem!"

This middle-aged man was the current patriarch of the Beiming Family, Patriarch Beiming Liqiang. He was already at the initial stage of the 7th-rank Emperor realm.

After seeing that he had gathered everyone's attention to himself, Beiming Liqiang nodded his head in satisfaction.

"Elders, I know that the current matter at hand is truly infuriating, but we have to think about what we should do regarding this... We cannot allow anyone to throw our Beiming Family's reputation down the mud!" Patriarch Beiming Liqiang said with an awe-inspiring tone.

The elders nodded their heads in agreement as they clenched their fists with indignant looks.

Their Beiming Family has always been loyal to the Silveria Imperial Family since their founding years, so they felt quite unhappy when some of the Silver Wing Empire's aristocratic clans chose to believe the rumors that had circulated.

They felt that their ancestor's efforts were for naught with the current attitude of everyone towards them.

"The opinions of those aristocratic clans don't matter, but if the Silveria Imperial Family also choose to believe these rumors then..." The bald elder with a long grey beard didn't want to say the rest, so he just let out a sigh and shook his head.

Patriarch Beiming Liqiang frowned and tapped his fingers on the table in a rhythmic pattern as he deeply thought about the bald elder's words. He understood the importance of the Silveria Imperial Family's stand regarding the circulating rumors, but he believed in Emperor Elyk's foresight.

"Your words are true but don't underestimate the intelligence of His Majesty. He didn't just ascend to the throne due to his luck. In fact, it's because of his overwhelming strength and wisdom that he had taken over the throne." Patriarch Beiming Liqiang said with a hint of reverence in his tone.

Supreme Elder Beiming Lei who was silent all throughout the discussion nodded his head in agreement and said in a calm but aged voice.

"What Liqiang said is right. As of the moment, the best thing to do is to learn the identity of the ones that wanted to besmirch the reputation of our Beiming Family..."

All the elders' eyes glinted when they heard the supreme elder's words.

"Pu!" A streak of brilliant light pierced through the defenses of a high-level beast which also severed its head during the process.

"Thud!" The headless corpse dropped on the ground with a dull but loud thud.

The headless carcass of the beast lied in its own pool of blood painting the green field with a crimson hue.

In front of the corpse, Jiu Shen indifferently waved his sleeves with a calm and detached look.

"An 8th-rank Divine realm Spiked Earthen Bear King. Edible but unpalatable... Too bad..." Jiu Shen muttered to himself as he glanced at the huge headless corpse lying on the grassy field.

Lu Sulan already had a numbed look when she saw how easy it was for Jiu Shen to take out so many high-level beasts. The savage beast in front of them was already the sixth beast that died under the hands of Jiu Shen.

And the most surprising thing was that they all died in just one move!

If it was herself, she would have a hard time battling with those savage beasts. But in front of her master, those strong savage beasts were just like weak and helpless farm chickens...

So she was no longer surprised when she saw the 8th-rank Divine realm Spiked Earthen Bear King die with just one move of Jiu Shen.

"Master, if you aren't going to take it, can I keep it instead? Although a Spiked Earthen Bear's Body tastes awful, its bones and internal organs are valuable materials in concocting some pills. I could sell the beast's body to the Alchemy Hall for a huge sum of true crystals." Lu Sulan poked Jiu Shen's back as she gently spoke.

Jiu Shen glanced at Lu Sulan and nodded his head. "Okay..."

After getting her master's approval, Lu Sulan eagerly kept the huge beast's corpse inside her storage space. Even the beast's head was not spared either as it similarly entered her storage space.

Jiu Shen lips slightly curved upwards as he watched his disciple's eager actions. He then turned to look at the huge lake that was just a few hundred meters away from them.

"Green Mountain Lake... Not a bad sight to see..."

His pair of silver eyes were like two deep pools that peered through the distance.
