Chapter 862 Opening of the Bai Gong Jade Pavilion (Please Subscribe)_1

Beautiful Eyes Bai Gongyu watched their retreating figures with displeasure, saying, "Bai Gong Mang and his group are too despicable! To utter such words..."

Her already low opinion of them dropped even further...

Xu Sheng narrowed his eyes in thought...

With just an effortless kick, Bai Gongyu could send the Second Layer of Tribulation Crossing's Bai Gong Mang flying. Surely, her Cultivation Level must have reached at least the Fifth Level of the Transcendence Tribulation Stage!

Seeing that Xu Sheng gave no response, Bai Gongyu looked at him puzzledly, only to find him lost in thought...

She waved her hand in front of his eyes, "Xu Sheng? Xu Sheng? What are you thinking about?"

Xu Sheng came back to his senses and shook his head, "Nothing... nothing. I just didn't expect your Cultivation Level to be so powerful, to easily repel an opponent from the Second Layer of the Tribulation Crossing."

At his words, a hint of pride appeared on Bai Gongyu's cheeks, "I am at the Fifth Level of the Transcendence Tribulation Stage, after all! How could I possibly not defeat that guy?"

Xu Sheng pursed his thin lips and said, "Feather Junior Sister, you've been troubled today, let us return now..."

Bai Gongyu asked with confusion, "Aren't we watching anymore? There's still a lot going on over there..."

Xu Sheng refused, "No need! I've pretty much understood the situation; there's no need to observe in such detail."

Since he had already spoken, Bai Gongyu did not ask any more, "Is that so? Alright then!"

...

The Mo Family, one of the three major clans of Tianfeng City!

Barely visible, the entire Mo Family appeared incomparably gloomy as if it harbored devils and monsters alike...

And within the great hall of the Mo Family, several men dressed in black robes were seated...

They were the Mo Family Patriarch, Mo Buhui!

And his son, Mo Heng, along with several other Elders!

Mo Buhui's icy gaze swept over his son below, and he spoke indifferently, "Mo Heng, it seems your plan has failed. The little girl from the Bai Gong Family is not interested in you!"

He had originally favored Mo Heng's proposal plan, but he had not expected the Bai Gong Family to reject it so decisively, even offending the face of the Mo Family!

The other Mo Family Elders around also wore cold expressions, silently watching the scene unfold...

A hint of resentment flashed in Mo Heng's phoenix eyes, as he said respectfully with fists clasped, "Father, indeed, I overestimated myself this time and have caused the Mo Family to lose face."

Mo Buhui's tone darkened, "Losing face is minor; the key is how to regain it! The Bai Gong Family now really looks down on our Mo Family!"

They had long been displeased with the Bai Gong Family, who were obstacles in their way at every turn...

This marriage proposal was a ruse to bring Bai Gongyu and Mo Heng together, an actual move aimed at making the Bai Gong Family a subsidiary of the Mo Family!

Suddenly, an Elder said in a cold voice, "In my opinion, it would be better to form an alliance with the Wang Family and crush the Bai Gong Family!"

Another Elder rejected the idea coldly, "Impossible. They are not fools. They know that after taking down the Bai Gong Family, they will become our next target!"

"Are we really going to cooperate with them, then? To divide the Bai Gong Family amongst us?"

"What they want does not conflict with our interests; perhaps we can try to cooperate!"

Mo Buhui narrowed his eyes, beginning to contemplate...

Just then, a booming voice echoed throughout the Mo Family hall...

"Hahaha! Mo Family Head, have you given any thought to my proposal from last time?"

As the voice fell, several figures slowly walked in...

The atmosphere in the surroundings immediately froze...

...

Days later, a day that made all the disciples in the Bai Gong Mansion cheer with excitement arrived!

That would be the opening of the Bai Gong Jade Pavilion!

As soon as Xu Sheng pushed open the door and stepped out of the room, he could hear the continuous cheers of the Bai Gong Clan disciples all around...

"The day the Bai Gong Jade Pavilion opens has finally arrived! I can finally switch my Martial Technique!"

"Yes, indeed! Every time this happens, it's always the most anticipated moment!! And not long after, the Clan competition will take place—it's the perfect opportunity to test the level of my new Martial Technique's cultivation!"

"Just thinking about cultivating a new Martial Technique gets me all excited!! If only we could choose several to review!"

"Right! I really don't know why they must impose such restrictions!!"

At this moment, Bai Gongyu waved to Xu Sheng, "Xu Sheng!!"

Xu Sheng asked with a smile, "Feather Junior Sister, how are things?"

With a slight tone of concern, Bai Gongyu said, "Father has agreed to let you enter the Bai Gong Jade Pavilion with us, but you are only allowed to choose one Martial Technique to cultivate..."

This was the result of her intense efforts!

After all, Xu Sheng was an outsider, and the Martial Techniques within the Bai Gong Jade Pavilion were the most important thing to the Bai Gong Clan, and they absolutely could not be leaked!

Hence, even with her pleading, they allowed Xu Sheng the chance to choose just one Martial Technique to cultivate...

Unfazed, Xu Sheng replied, "Feather Junior Sister, it's alright; being able to cultivate one Martial Technique is already enough!"

Seeing that he was not upset by this, Bai Gongyu's impression of Xu Sheng improved significantly...

She chuckled lightly, "Then let's go quickly! The Bai Gong Jade Pavilion is about to open..."

Xu Sheng nodded and said, "Mhm!"

...

Upon reaching the Bai Gong Jade Pavilion, Xu Sheng and Bai Gongyu saw that a large portion of the Bai Gong Clan disciples had already gathered!

And standing in front of the Bai Gong Jade Pavilion was the Elder responsible for this occasion!

The leading Elder announced with a stern voice, "Today is the day the Bai Gong Jade Pavilion opens. All disciples are permitted to enter and choose the Martial Techniques best suited for themselves, but they may select no more than three!"

"If anyone is caught pocketing extra, they will be dealt with according to the clan rules, understood?"

All the assembled disciples replied with excitement, "Understood!!"

Xu Sheng felt, intentional or not, that the Elders' glances kept sizing him up...

They appeared to be on guard, as if specifically against him...

But soon, those sharp gazes shifted away from him...

Right after, the leading Elder nodded to the other two Elders at his side and commanded, "Begin!"

The next moment, they each placed their palms on the three large cauldrons in front of the Bai Gong Jade Pavilion, and their bodies erupted with terrifying Spirit Force Fluctuations...

"Omm~~Omm~~"

As the enormous sound of the cauldrons echoed throughout the entire Shangguan Residence, the Bai Gong Jade Pavilion started to tremble violently...

Subsequently, the glowing doors of the Bai Gong Jade Pavilion began to rise slowly...

It took several dozen seconds before they were fully opened...

The scene inside the Bai Gong Jade Pavilion gradually came into view...

Only then did the leading Elder give the order, "Only fifteen people may enter at a time. Please, all disciples, proceed swiftly..."

Upon his word, the fifteen disciples at the front of the line quickly stepped through the gates...

...
