Xu Liao quickly forgot about the Darkness Courts as he busied himself with the establishment of the Jade Tripod Sect.
With the Bai family's help and his lack of money, he quickly settled on a manor that had been vacant for many years on Luoyang Street. He even converted it into the Jade Tripod Sect's entrance. Of course, the paperwork was provided by the Myriad Demon Guild.
Xu Liao never expected that more than a hundred people would come to register shortly after the Jade Tripod Sect's signboard was hung up.
Of course, most of the people who signed up were first-level demons. As they did not have outstanding talent, they did not amount to much despite attending a few training classes. They relied on the Myriad Demon Guild's benefits to live a better life than ordinary people. However, they were still at the bottom of society. Furthermore, they were at the bottom of human society.
Ever since Xu Liao awakened his demon bloodline, his strength had soared. His status had also risen without him realizing it. He had never interacted with low-level demons.
Zhao Yanqin was the only monster that he had come into contact with more weak strength. However, Zhao Yanqin herself had even awakened her talent inheritance, and her demonic power value was not considered weak among her peers. Not to mention that Zhao Yanqin's parents were both at the Demon King Stage. Their family sold steamed buns because they did not like to scheme and liked to live a peaceful life, not because they were poor.
Xu Liao did not reject anyone. At the same time, he did not forget to conduct classes on demons and morals. It was to prevent any disciples that resembled Tang Leng from appearing under his tutelage.
Back when he helped Guan Bai capture the young demon, he was puzzled as to why Tang Leng would feel that he had the ability to kill and prevent others from doing as he pleased despite having awakened his demon bloodline!
Xu Liao had killed before, but he had always done so with sufficient reason. For example, a female demon like Xiang Xue. Although she had all sorts of thoughts, she had never done anything substantial to harm him. Even if Xu Liao hated her, he would not think of using violence to resolve the problem.
It was not like he lacked power or intelligence, nor was he a murderer.
Just as Xu Liao was so busy that he nearly forgot something, a few Elders from Dongxuanxian School came to the Jade Tripod Sect he was renovating. They even brought five disciples with them.
The three Dongxuanxian School elders were Yun Qingke, Li Qingya, and Lu Mingchi. They brought Bai Xianren, Hu Xiuqing, Ying Qiang, Wang Chao, and Ren Lingxuan.
Apart from Jie Sun, who had a grudge against Xu Liao, and another person who had been in seclusion for many years, almost all of the seven Tiangang Warriors of the younger generation of Dongxuanxian School had come out.
Although Xu Liao would soon be expelled, that was because he cultivated in demonic aura. It was not because Dongxuanxian School was making things difficult for him. He still felt a sense of belonging to Dongxuanxian School, so he hurriedly welcomed the three Elders and five fellow disciples.
Although Xu Liao had a conflict with Bai Xianren and even bore a grudge against her for revealing his and Bai Qiulian's whereabouts, which resulted in Sun Zhonghu barging into the Western Mystic Grotto-Heaven and petrifying Bai Qiulian, he naturally could not openly mention it in front of so many fellow disciples.
Although Bai Xianren looked a little embarrassed, it was clearly different from before. He seemed to be trying to curry favor.
The empty house that Xu Liao bought might not be as grand as the White Emperor Martial School or the Kunlun Immortal School, but it was not small. He had not had time to completely renovate it, so he could only renovate a courtyard. Thus, he could only invite his fellow disciples to this courtyard for a short chat.
Xu Liao had no one in the sect now. He felt that those people could not do anything and were causing trouble, so he sent them to Heavenly Emperor Garden.
He did not even have anyone to pour water for him, so he could only order a meal over the phone. He even ordered a set meal from Moon Coffee, asking the other party to send them even the coffee maker. Only then did he ask with a smile, "Elders, you haven't left Qingxu Grotto-Heaven for a long time. Why did you suddenly come to Luoyang Street to play?"
Lu Mingchi said with a smile, "You are this generation's Eldest Senior Brother, and it has been a long time since you went back to the sect. There are some things that you have to explain, so we had to come."
Xu Liao was also quite surprised. He asked with a smile, "Are there any rules?"
Lu Mingchi casually shook his hand and threw eighteen brocade handkerchiefs to him. He said, "You did not even bring your dignified manner. Wouldn't it be a disgrace to our Dongxuanxian School if you went to the Dragon Flower Gathering?"
Xu Liao had really forgotten about this set of dignified manner. This set of dignified manner and the five thousand talisman money he received were left in the cave abode of Dongxuanxian School. He had forgotten about them after that, and did not have the thought of going back to retrieve them.
Yun Qingke was a dignified person, unlike Lu Mingchi, who could still joke. He said solemnly, "In the past Dragon Flower Gatherings, although it was the Eldest Senior Brother and Eldest Senior Sister of the eighteen immortal sects who competed for the top spot, every sect would send an elder to accompany them to prevent their disciples from causing trouble. They would also give a few spots for the disciples to come and watch."
Xu Liao nodded slightly and thought to himself, If there were only thirty people, the gathering would be very quiet. It wouldn't even be called an immortal gathering.
Yun Qingke's cultivation was the highest and he was also the oldest. He was the leader of this trip, so he explained all the rules to Xu Liao. Xu Liao frowned as he listened to the complicated parts. Luckily, there were a few elders following him, so he didn't have to worry too much.
After a while, not only did the nearby hotel deliver the food that Xu Liao ordered, but the Moon Coffee set and the waiters also arrived. They brewed coffee for everyone on the spot. It was quite an elegant scene.
What surprised Xu Liao was that Bai Qiulian, Baek Hyun-jae, and Cui Ying followed the waiters into the hall. Bai Qiulian greeted the elders first. She was a true disciple of Dongxuanxian School, so the elders praised her for becoming a Celestial Dipper Warrior.
At this moment, Xu Liao sensed something. As expected, not long after the feast started, Bai Xianji came to apologize to him with a wine cup.
Xu Liao glanced at her and sneered, "Did you beg Xuanzai to explain things to Qiulian today?"
Bai Xianji smiled sheepishly and said, "If it wasn't for Third Brother and Little Nineteen's help, I really wouldn't dare to stand in front of you. I would've been in seclusion in the Dongxuan Immortal Sect for decades."
Bai Qiulian didn't say anything and looked at Xu Liao with a smile. Her eyes were filled with pride.
Although the Bai Clan's daughter was talented and was valued by the Bai Clan's ancestor, there were many rules in the seven great pure-blooded clans. Even she couldn't avoid it and suffered a lot. She was also looked down by her cousins, thinking that she was a girl after all. What tricks could she pull?
Even though the Bai Clan had Bai Juan as an example, it was precisely because Bai Juan was a peerless genius that everyone felt that no matter how diligent Bai Qiulian was, she couldn't become the second Bai Juan. This was the difference in people's hearts. No one could avoid it.
Bai Xuan was grinning from ear to ear and didn't interrupt. He had come to this hall because he valued their brotherhood. Bai Xianren had become a Heaven Dipper Warrior a step earlier than him and had looked down on him, his third brother. Now that it was Bai Xianren's turn to beg him, he was naturally very pleased.
Xu Liao laughed and couldn't be bothered to humiliate Bai Xianji. He only said indifferently, "Go do one thing. If I'm satisfied, I'll forget about the past."
