Bai Zihan had already issued an order to summon every member of the Bai Clan back to its territory.After all, he didn’t want to discover that some foolish clan member had offended the wrong person and ended up getting killed.
With so many powerful forces from the Central Glorious Continent arriving in the Desolate Heaven Empire, conflicts were inevitable.
These people had come for the True God’s Legacy, and none of them could be considered easy to deal with.
Even a seemingly ordinary cultivator among them possesses an extraordinary strength that the current Bai Clan Member can’t match.
Under such circumstances, it was better for the Bai Clan to call those clan members back to the clan.
That way, even if a conflict arose, they could deal with it near their own territory, where they had a clear advantage.
Naturally, there was another reason why Bai Xueqing was currently staying in the Bai Clan.
It was related to her previous kidnapping.
After that incident, the Bai Clan could no longer completely trust the Heaven Sword Sect to protect her.
Therefore, they had arranged for Bai Xueqing to remain within the Bai Clan, where he could ensure her safety personally.
Well, Bai Xueqing wasn’t too keen on the idea but this was something Bai Zihan approved himself and she does not have much say in this.
Considering all kinds of different people with Golden Immortal Realm cultivation arriving in their territory, she also knew Bai ZIhan’s decision and didn’t protest after that.
At the moment, Bai Xueqing was simply strolling around the clan’s territory.
She had nothing particularly important to do, so she decided to take a walk and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.
However, just as she passed through a familiar courtyard, she suddenly noticed several figures approaching from a distance.
She immediately noticed Bai Zihan and called his name.
"Bai Zihan!"
And just as she noticed him, she also noticed the three beautiful women following behind him.
Bai Xueqing blinked.
(This scumbag!)
Bai Xueqing immediately became furious.
She felt that Bai Zihan was being too unfaithful to her best friend, Chu Ziyan.
However, her expression suddenly changed when she took a closer look at one of the three women.
Her eyes widened in disbelief.
(Bai Xinyue?!)
Bai Xueqing stared at Bai Xinyue in surprise.
(She is back!)
She had never expected to see her again so soon.
After all, Bai Xinyue had been taken away by a powerful figure from the Central Glorious Continent.
Considering how vast the cultivation world was, Bai Xueqing had assumed that it might take ten years, a hundred years, or perhaps even longer before they met again.
For cultivators, a hundred years wasn’t particularly long.
Some powerful cultivators could spend that much time in seclusion without even realizing how quickly the years had passed.
Therefore, Bai Xueqing had never expected Bai Xinyue to return so soon.
Of course, it wasn’t as though she held any grudges against Bai Xinyue.
She was simply surprised by this unexpected reunion.
However, her surprise didn’t end there.
(I can’t sense her cultivation!)
Bai Xueqing’s expression gradually changed.
She carefully examined Bai Xinyue again, trying to determine her current cultivation.
However, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t sense anything.
This could only mean one thing.
Bai Xinyue’s cultivation had surpassed the Great Ascension Realm!
Bai Xueqing could still sense the strength of Great Ascension Realm cultivators, even when they deliberately concealed their auras.
She could even vaguely discern the cultivation of some Immortal Realm experts. Yet Bai Xinyue was completely different.
There wasn’t even the slightest trace of her cultivation that Bai Xueqing could detect.
In other words, Bai Xinyue had most likely already broken through into the Immortal Realm!
But that wasn’t all.
Bai Xueqing could vaguely sense that Bai Xinyue wasn’t merely at the Immortal Ascension Realm, either.
Her strength had clearly reached a level far beyond what Bai Xueqing could currently comprehend.
Bai Xueqing’s heart trembled.
Then, she turned her attention toward the other two women.
Meng Qingchen!
Qiao Ruoxi!
At first, Bai Xueqing had only thought that her younger brother had brought back three exceptionally beautiful women.
Now, however, she realized just how wrong that assumption had been.
The auras of the two women were even more terrifying than Bai Xinyue’s!
Although they were concealing their strength, Bai Xueqing could still feel the overwhelming pressure emanating from them.
It was a feeling she had only experienced when standing before Bai Ren and the other Golden Immortal experts of the Bai Clan.
In other words, these two beautiful women were most likely terrifyingly powerful as well!
Bai Xueqing fell silent.
Three beautiful women.
Three terrifying experts.
(Just who exactly had he brought back?)
For a moment, Bai Xueqing didn’t know what to say.
However, as she continued observing the three women, another feeling gradually emerged within her heart.
Inferiority!
She clenched her fists tightly.
After all, Bai Xueqing had always been considered the greatest genius of the Bai Clan.
Her talent was among if not the best in the entire Desolate Heaven Empire.
Although she couldn’t compare with Bai Zihan, she had always believed that she could gradually narrow the gap between them through hard work.
Then, Bai Xinyue had obtained Empress Feilian’s inheritance.
Her cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, leaving Bai Xueqing far behind.
Even so, Bai Xueqing hadn’t completely given up.
She had believed that as long as she continued cultivating diligently, she might eventually catch up to Bai Xinyue.
After all, cultivation wasn’t a race that could be decided in a single day.
As long as she continued making progress, there would always be a chance.
But now...
Bai Zihan had already entered the Immortal Realm.
And Bai Xinyue had most likely reached an even higher level of cultivation than Bai Zihan.
And she?
She was still stuck in the Void Refinement Realm.
She hadn’t even broken through into the Great Ascension Realm!
The difference between them was simply too great.
Bai Xueqing lowered her gaze slightly.
(Just how long will it take me to catch up to them?)
She couldn’t help asking herself that question.
A year?
Ten years?
Even if she managed to reach their current level of cultivation eventually, what would happen by then?
Would Bai Zihan and Bai Xinyue still be at the same level?
Of course not!
With their terrifying talent and cultivation speed, they would undoubtedly continue advancing.
By the time Bai Xueqing finally caught up to their current cultivation, they might have already reached heights she couldn’t even imagine.
The thought made her feel increasingly frustrated.
For the first time in a long while, Bai Xueqing felt that the distance between herself and the geniuses around her was growing wider rather than narrower.
She had once believed that she possessed extraordinary talent.
Now, standing before these monsters, she couldn’t help feeling insignificant.
An unfamiliar sense of inferiority gradually took root within her heart.
If Meng Qingchen and Qiao Ruoxi knew what Bai Xueqing was feeling at that moment, they would probably have slapped her.
A cultivator in her twenties who had already reached the Peak of the Void Refinement Realm was feeling inferior?
Even they hadn’t possessed such cultivation speed at her age!
Of course, they could understand why Bai Xueqing felt that way.
After all, when faced with monsters like Bai Zihan and Bai Xinyue, it was difficult for anyone not to feel inferior.
The gap between them was simply too great.
However, neither Meng Qingchen nor Qiao Ruoxi knew what Bai Xueqing was thinking.
Instead, Qiao Ruoxi curiously examined the young woman standing before them.
"Who is she?"
Bai Xueqing immediately snapped out of her thoughts.
She looked toward Qiao Ruoxi before introducing herself.
"My name is Bai Xueqing. I’m Bai Zihan’s elder sister."
Then, she turned toward Bai Zihan.
"Who are they?"
Bai Zihan smiled faintly.
"They are Meng Qingchen and Qiao Ruoxi, Saintesses of the Flowing Moon Sect."
He paused briefly before continuing.
"They wanted to visit our Bai Clan, so I brought them here."
Bai Xueqing’s eyes widened slightly.
Saintesses of the Flowing Moon Sect!
Although she didn’t know much about the sect, her master had once told her that it was one of the most powerful sects in the Central Glorious Continent.
Naturally, becoming a Saintess of such a sect was no simple achievement.
Anyone who could obtain that position was bound to possess extraordinary talent and strength.
No wonder their auras had felt comparable to those of Bai Ren and the other Golden Immortal experts!
Bai Xueqing finally understood why she had felt such terrifying pressure from the two women.
She hadn’t expected Bai Zihan to bring back not just one, but two Saintesses from such a powerful sect.
For a moment, she couldn’t help feeling amazed.
However, she quickly composed herself and greeted the two women politely.
"Welcome to the Bai Clan!"
Meng Qingchen and Qiao Ruoxi exchanged glances before smiling.
"There’s no need to be so formal. We simply wanted to see what kind of clan could produce such extraordinary geniuses."
"And it looks like our decision wasn’t wrong. To meet a genius such as you right away. Bai Xueqing, what do you say about joining our sect?"
