While the Shangguan Family also holds a not-so-low status, they ultimately cannot be compared with the Bai Family.
Court Leader Shangguan was somewhat apprehensive.
“I hope the Bai Family doesn’t hold a grudge against me…”
After all, those were two special Eternal Life Runes!
Only ancestors of Noble Clans who have little life left, no hope in furthering their Cultivation, and who will have no more advancements in their lifetime, would spend their own Cultivation to refine such Runes.
The ancestors of Noble Families capable of planting such Runes are few and far between.
And the Noble Family Descendants privileged enough to receive such Runes are even rarer.
Once a personal Eternal Life Rune is shattered, finding an elder to plant a new one is as difficult as scaling the heavens…
And if left unseeded, these Proud Sons of Heaven will face great danger upon stepping into the Cultivation World.
The trouble to come will be substantial…
Court Leader Shangguan frowned, deep in thought for a long time before he realized he was not in a position to worry about these matters…
He shook his head and settled Bai Zisheng, Bai Zixi, and Aunt Xue in the largest inn in Azure Mountain City.
Only waiting for the Bai Family to come to safely take these two VIPs away, he would be at ease.
As for himself… he may not have merit, but he has suffered hardship.
Even forgetting about merit, as long as he is not to blame, it’s enough…
But the incident happened suddenly; the Bai Family will likely not be unreasonable and overly blame him.
After several days at the inn, people from the Bai Family arrived.
A white-clothed, masked female Cultivator, accompanied by a group of Bai Family Cultivators, entered the inn.
Their figures seemed both real and illusionary, both solid and ethereal.
Although the people around clearly looked at them, it seemed as if they saw nothing at all…
Court Leader Shangguan was originally puzzled as to who would come from the Bai Family, but when he lifted his head and saw the figure of the female Cultivator, his heart trembled, and he immediately bowed his head, respectfully saying:
“I am Shangguan Jing, serving as the Court Leader of Li Mountain City, I greet the True Man!”
This woman’s face was masked, so her features were unclear, but her demeanor was coldly aristocratic with a peerlessly graceful presence.
More importantly, her breath was elusive and profound, unfathomable.
Feather Transformation Realm!
This woman was a True Man of the Feather Transformation Realm!
Court Leader Shangguan bowed his head even lower, fearing the slightest offense might displease the True Man.
