Just after the results of the elders' meeting of the Elixir Alliance were finalized, someone soon issued an order to find Xiaomeng in the guest room, and bluntly said that the latter should leave the Tower of Babel immediately.

"Why are you chasing away Little Dream?"

Xu Manman's beautiful eyes widened, and she said in disbelief: "She is a friend of Elder Lin Cheng of Keqing, and she has enough reason to stay here." According to the rules, the Elixir Alliance should treat each other as honored guests!"

Xiaomeng on the side hugged the demon tiger Xiaoice in his hand tightly, and his thin shoulders trembled faintly. It seemed to feel Xiaomeng's emotions, and the demon tiger Xiaoice did not sleep lazy this time, but stretched out his fangs and stared vigilantly at the group of people who suddenly appeared in front of him.

These people are the guards of the Tower of Babel who are responsible for maintaining order in the Elixir Alliance.

"The Lin Cheng you are talking about is no longer the guest elder of the Elixir Alliance. He's just a prison felon now, and he has nothing to do with our Elixir Alliance. ”

The leader of the guards frowned slightly, and said indifferently: "Xu Manman, this matter has nothing to do with you. Get out of the way, don't make a mistake!"

"I won't let it!"

Xu Manman stubbornly stretched out his hands, stopped Xiao Meng behind him, and said loudly: "Lin Yan's identity as an Elder Keqing was won from the Heaven Refining Spirit Altar Competition, and it is justified, you are not one of the top ten elders, what right do you have to say that his identity has been canceled!"

"We are acting on orders, and we have offended!"

A cold glint flashed in the eyes of the guard leader, and he was going to make a move on Xu Manman.

Syllable!

But before his hand could be stretched out, a powerful hand directly buckled him. I saw a bearded man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist appear in front of him at some point, staring at him with a cold expression: "What do you want to do with the vines?"

It was the Chu army.

"Uncle Beard!"

Xu Manman said in surprise.

With Chu Jun here, she had enough confidence in her heart, and hurriedly turned around and whispered a few words of comfort to Xiaomeng. Before Lin Cheng was arrested, she had promised the former that she would take care of Xiaomeng, she was not a dishonest person.

"Chu Jun, this is a decision made by the ten elders together, and you have no right to interfere. ”

The leader of the guards said coldly: "If you dare to hinder our work, the elders will blame it, and you should know what the consequences are!"

"Oh, really?"

Chu Jun sneered: "Why haven't I heard the Seventh Elder say about this? Shen Kuo, shouldn't you be pretending to pass on orders? The consequences of pretending to pass on elder's orders are no less culpable than the crime of disobeying orders!"

"I am following the orders of the four elders, if you have any opinions, go to the four elders!"

Shen Kuo, it was the leader of the guards who said in a deep voice.

"Then let's go to the four elders and confront ...... face-to-face."

Before Chu Jun's words were finished, a figure with gloomy eyes came here, and he stared at Chu Jun coldly: "There's no need for this, the old man is already here." Chu Jun, do you have any opinions?"

"I've seen the Four Elders!"

Everyone including Xu Manman and Chu Jun saluted respectfully, the status of the Ten Elders in the Tower of Babel is supreme, no matter who they are, they can't be rude to them in the slightest, otherwise they will be enemies of the entire Elixir Alliance.

"Fourth Elder, I just wanted to ask you, why did you drive Lin Cheng's friends out?"

Chu Jun is neither humble nor arrogant.

"It's very simple, because the Elixir Alliance has severed all ties with Lin Cheng, a court felon, from this moment onwards! He is no longer the guest elder of the Elixir Alliance, of course we have to expel the people who have a relationship with him from the Tower of Babel. ”

Ke Yanshu said lightly: "This is a decision made by the Council of Elders, and no one can disagree!"

His words were full of unquestionable flavor, and the firmness in his eyes made Xu Manman feel desperate. Even the Fourth Elder Ke Yanshu came forward in person, which means that this matter is absolutely true, after all, no one dares to joke about the Council of Elders, not even Ke Yanshu.

The Elixir Alliance is really going to draw a line with Lin Yuan!

"If you don't want to get hurt, leave Babel by yourself. ”

Shen Kuo and the others walked up to Xiaomeng and said indifferently.

The meaning of his words was already obvious, if Xiaomeng was unwilling to leave here, then they would have to take coercive measures.

"I want to see the Seventh Elder!"

Xu Manman still held on to the last glimmer of hope, as long as the Seventh Elder Cheng Yi was willing to come forward, maybe things would take a turn for the better. But Ke Yanshu's next sentence shattered all her expectations: "There is no need to look for Cheng Yi, he will go into retreat directly after the elders' meeting." This is a decision made by the alliance leader himself, even if he Cheng Yi has no choice. ”

"Fourth Elder, Lin Cheng only won a great honor for the Elixir Alliance not long ago, and if he did such a thing as crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, aren't he afraid that the people of the world will laugh at our Elixir Alliance?"

Xu Manman stared at Ke Yanshu deadly, unwilling.

"The gossip stops with the wise, and the Elixir Alliance doesn't care what the fools think. ”

Ke Yanshu sneered.

"According to what the Four Elders said, as long as it is a person who has lost its use value, the Elixir Alliance can decisively abandon it, right?"

Xu Manman's face turned slightly pale, and he smiled miserably: "It turns out that the elixir alliance that I have always regarded as my home is so ruthless......

"It's not ruthless, it's about the big picture. ”

"Anyway, people who have no use value are just garbage to you, so I Xu Manman shouldn't be what you need. In that case, I will quit the Elixir Alliance now, and I will no longer have anything to do with the Elixir Alliance from now on!"

What is shocking is that Xu Manman actually said so.

Looking at the determined look on her face, she was obviously serious!

"Really, if you want to go, you can go, the Elixir Alliance has no shortage of geniuses like you!"

Ke Yanshu sneered.

Xu Manman was indeed a rare elixir master genius, but on such an occasion, if he made a compromise, wouldn't he lose the majesty of the elders in front of everyone?

Even demonic geniuses like Lin Cheng can be ruthlessly abandoned, let alone just a man?

"Sister Manman, don't be impulsive. ”

At this time, Xiaomeng hurriedly shook his head and said, "I'll just go, you don't have to do it for me." I'm just a useless little girl, and it's not worth giving up so much for Sister Manman. ”

"It's such a heartless place, it's not interesting to keep it!"

Who knew that Xu Manman directly pulled Xiaomeng onto it, and left the Tower of Babel like this. As for Chu Jun, he stood there with a complicated expression, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

The move of the Elixir Alliance really chilled the hearts of many people.

For many people who work for the Elixir Alliance, the Elixir Alliance is their everything. Although Lin Cheng was not considered to have worked hard for the Elixir Alliance, he had indeed brought unprecedented honor to the Elixir Alliance this time, but even if it was such a Lin Cheng, the alliance leaders and elders could give it up without hesitation.

What about these inconspicuous people?

Lin Yan's fate today may be their fate in the future...... Chu Jun couldn't help but start pondering, should he continue to stay in the Elixir Alliance? Just like Xu Manman said, is such a ruthless place really worth nostalgia?

......

Leaving the Tower of Babel with Xiaomeng, Xu Manmanqiao couldn't help but have a look of confusion on her face, the Elixir Alliance had been her home for so many years. After leaving for a while, she didn't know where she was going.

"Sister Manman, I'm sorry, I'm the one who bothered you. ”

Xiaomeng's face was full of self-blame.

"It's none of your business. ”

Xu Manman comforted: "If they can abandon Lin Yan today, they will abandon me tomorrow." It's only a matter of time before I leave, but I should thank you for letting me see the true colors of these people in advance. ”

"But where do we go now?"

Xiaomeng was silent for a moment and said.

Without the blessing of the Elixir Alliance, with the relationship between Xiaomeng and Lin Yuan, I don't know how many people in this imperial capital want to deal with her. It is impossible to find a random place to devote himself to, in order to protect Xiaomeng, Xu Manman must find a place that can make those people jealous.

She promised Lin Cheng to take care of Xiaomeng, so she must not break her promise.

"I ......"

Xu Manman hesitated for a moment, and smiled a little reluctantly: "It's okay, in fact, I have another home in the imperial capital, let's try it." ”

If it weren't for the situation, Xu Manman would rather die than enter the so-called home again. When she was a child, that home brought her only endless coldness and loneliness, but now she must help Xiaomeng find a place to hide.

No matter how reluctant she was, she had to endure walking through the door of that house.

Half an hour later, the two of them came to a grand and luxurious mansion, and above the gate hung a gilded plaque with two big characters written on it: "Night House!"

That's right, this is the night valve of one of the top ten valve families.

Xu Manman's mother, who has long passed away, is the person of the Night Valve, and she was taken in by the Night Valve at a very young age after losing her parents since she was a child. However, because of the rumors that she killed her parents, almost no one treated her well, and she was extremely mean to her since she was a child, and the level of food and clothing was sometimes even lower than that of others.

She spent a very dark childhood in the Nightvale, a difficult period that ended when she was taken in by the Nine Elders of the Elixir Alliance when she was ten years old. The Nine Elders took her as an apprentice and treated her more like a granddaughter, giving her an extra glimmer of light in her gloomy life.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, just two years ago, the Ninth Elder suddenly disappeared mysteriously, and even the people of Tianji Pavilion couldn't find his trace. The people of the Elixir Alliance believed that the Nine Elders had evaporated from the world, and in order to ensure the integrity of the Ten Elders, the Elixir Alliance re-elected a new Nine Elders. Due to the mysterious disappearance of the Nine Elders, Xu Manman's name as a lone star was even louder in the imperial capital.

And everyone in the Elixir Alliance also stayed away from Xu Manman, and even hated it very much. In the entire Elixir Alliance, only Chu Jun and Seventh Elder Cheng Yi took good care of her, and never looked at her with strange eyes.

This is Xu Manman's bleak background.
