Chapter 876: Betrothing Feather to You (Seeking Subscriptions)_1

```

The disciples nearby were all very satisfied after seeing Bai Gongyu cripple Bai Gong Qianye's cultivation level, saying, "Well done, Sister Yu!! We must make this bastard realize the consequences of betraying our Bai Gong Family!"

"While that's the idea, but ahem... don't be so rude when speaking to Feather Junior Sister," one remarked.

"Damn it, even flaying Bai Gong Qianye a thousand times over can't bring back the lives of our fellow disciples!" another exclaimed angrily.

Xu Sheng's dark eyes flickered toward Bai Gongyu. "Not killing him?"

With the betrayal of Bai Gong Mu and Bai Gong Huiye causing devastating losses to the Bai Gong Family, she must also have possessed strong murderous intentions towards Bai Gong Qianye...

Upon hearing this, Bai Gongyu shook her head and said, "Killing him won't bring anything back."

For someone as proud as Bai Gong Qianye, only crippling his cultivation level could be the best torment!

Suddenly, one of the disciples looked angrily at Xu Sheng, accusing, "That's right! I remember now, that Xu Sheng, just sitting there on that chair, was indifferent to the death and injury of our disciples! It seems he's no different from Bai Gong Qianye..."

Bai Gongyu's beautiful eyes hardened, and with a "slap", she smacked that disciple's cheek without any hesitation...

With a cold shade in her voice, she said, "The reason our Bai Gong Family survived this time is precisely because of Xu Sheng's help! Understand?"

This fearsome demeanor made the other Bai Gong Family disciples take a few steps back...

Although they did not understand why her expression turned so dreadful, apologizing was definitely the right thing to do!

The disciple, his cheek still smarting from the slap, awkwardly smiled, "Sister Yu, I underst... understand! It was my mistake to misjudge Xu Sheng!"

"Feather Junior Sister, please calm your anger, we didn't mean it!"

"Yes, yes! How could the person Sister Yu brought herself be a coward afraid to die!"

Bai Gongyu glared at them and said impatiently, "Enough talk, hurry up and capture Bai Gong Qianye..."

Where would those disciples dare to say anything else, they quickly replied, "Yes!! Sister (Junior Sister) Yu."

Only then did Bai Gongyu notice that Xu Sheng was staring at her dumbfoundedly. Her cheeks flushed slightly as she asked with a shortage of breath, "What... what is it, Xu Sheng? Why are you... looking at me like that?"

She didn't understand her own reaction - upon hearing these disciples insult Xu Sheng, an inexplicable fury had surged from within her!

Xu Sheng chuckled and shook his head, "It's nothing, just that your demeanor was indeed a bit different than usual, but still, thank you."

Upon hearing this, Bai Gongyu uttered somewhat shyly, "Hmm..."

...

Afterward, the Bai Gong Family disciples swiftly began to clean up the corpses inside the estate. In just a few hours, they had cleared the bloodbath...

But even so, the pungent smell of blood remained, obviously not something that would dissipate in a short time!

In addition, including Xu Sheng, the elders of the Bai Gong Family all gathered within the great hall...

Sitting at the head of the table, Bai Gong Li looked around at the several elders with a solemn expression, "The conflict with the Mo Family has resulted in the loss of nearly a thousand disciples, and now only a little over six hundred have survived!"

One of the elders replied gravely, "Indeed! For our Bai Gong Family, this is truly a devastating blow. We're now vastly outmatched in strength compared to the Mo Family and the Wang Family!"

Another elder clenched his teeth, slammed his hand on the table in front of him, and roared, "We absolutely cannot let the despicable Mo Family off easily!"

"But the Mo Family's strength is still greater than ours, unless..."

As the words trailed off, the elder's gaze cautiously shifted toward Xu Sheng...

```

Only with the latter's help could the Bai Gong Family possibly annihilate the Mo Family!

Upon hearing this, the other Elders all fell silent...

Only Bai Gong Li's eyes shimmered with fervor as he seriously said, "Xu Sheng, I don't know if you'd be willing to assist our Bai Gong Family in wiping out the Mo Family!"

He could see that his daughter had a fondness for Xu Sheng; otherwise, she wouldn't spend most of her time by his side.

Most importantly, he himself was very satisfied with Xu Sheng. If he could betroth Bai Gongyu to Xu Sheng, perhaps that could help the Bai Gong Family climb even higher!

After all, the latter's strength had absolutely reached an extremely terrifying level, capable of killing a cultivator of the Ninth Layer of the Scatter Immortal Realm with a single punch!!!

Xu Sheng's eyes pondered for a moment, then he opened his mouth and said, "I..."

Bai Gong Li's eyes radiated a burst of sharp light...

"Not interested..." Xu Sheng said the remaining words without a change in expression...

This response left Bai Gong Li, who was full of zeal, feeling like a bucket of cold water had been poured over him...

Somewhat awkwardly he said, "I see... That's how it is."

But the next second, his tone changed abruptly, carrying a hint of reluctance as he said, "Xu Sheng, what do you think of Feather?"

As long as he could secure Xu Sheng, he could take the Bai Gong Family's development to the next level. He didn't want to give up just like that...

Xu Sheng's dark eyes flickered a few times, as if he had seen through Bai Gong Li's thoughts, and he said with a light smile, "Quite nice, whether in looks or in power..."

Bai Gong Li pressed again, "Then I won't beat around the bush. Surely you can feel it, Feather has a liking for you."

"If you're willing, I could betroth her to you, and then..."

Xu Sheng's gaze locked onto his cheek, teasingly saying, "Patriarch Bai Gong, are you trying to win me over? Or are you trying to sell your daughter?"

His intention was far too obvious, wanting to use Bai Gongyu to pull him onto the Bai Gong Family's big ship...

Having his motives so bluntly exposed, Bai Gong Li could only feign a cough, "Cough cough, Xu Sheng, what are you saying? I just think that you and Feather indeed would be very..."

But he only got halfway through before he closed his mouth in defeat...

Meanwhile, the other Elders who sat there simply observed silently, tacitly choosing not to speak...

This was not a matter they had the right to interject in...

Xu Sheng glanced at them and calmly said, "Since there's nothing else, then I shall take my leave!"

After his words fell, he stood up, turned around, and left the great hall...

Once he had left, one of the Elders shook his head and said, "Patriarch, it seems your plan has fallen through. Someone with such terrifying talent, how could he possibly be confined by a woman!"

Another Elder nodded and said, "Xu Sheng's cultivation level might have already reached the True Immortal Realm; he is not someone our small Tianfeng City can accommodate!"

The only female Elder covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, "I think Xu Sheng does like Feather, but it's far from the level of partnership. Save your energy! Better off offering him something substantial to help us."

Bai Gong Li sighed and said helplessly, "It seems I was hasty, overestimating my daughter's charm."

"Well then, let's discuss how to deal with the Mo Family."
