Inside the Immortal Palace...
"Xiao Xuan, tell your father honestly. Just how did you offend Elder Bai?"
Supported by others, Xu Xiao sat down in a chair and looked at Xu Xuan as he asked softly.
Xu Xuan felt he had never had much close contact with Bai Jie. If there was any reason, it had to be Mo Tianji.
Xu Xuan shrugged. "Who knows? Father, you should be more careful. He has a grudge against my master, so he's turned that resentment on me."
Xu Xuan voiced his thoughts.
That was indeed the case, but he had never figured out exactly what grievances lay between the two, and Mo Tianji had never told him.
Looks like I should find a chance to ask Master.
"Xiao Xuan, you want your father to oversee this vast Immortal Palace, but I'm afraid I'm not up to the task!"
Whenever Xu Xiao thought of how powerless he had felt facing Bai Jie, he could not help sighing. Yes, he was the lord of the Immortal Palace, but his strength was a cause for concern.
Even with thirty-two Purple Mansion Realm experts assisting him, he was only at Heavenly Mansion Second Heaven.
He feared he could not keep this vast Immortal Palace under control!
"The Immortal Palace is now the greatest power in the Cloud Azure Territory, and its only power. I'm afraid I can't control it alone!"
Xu Xuan understood perfectly what Xu Xiao meant. He simply wanted him to stay and inherit his position. Of course, the other reason was probably Bai Jie.
"Father, are you afraid Bai Jie will harm me?" Xu Xuan asked.
Xu Xiao nodded. "That fellow truly is difficult to deal with. Besides, he's an elder. It would be no trouble at all for him to target you
