The head of the Shi family always considered himself a person who could bend and stretch, so the moment Bai Xue looked over, he knelt down with a thud and said in a trembling voice, "Greetings, Lady Bai Xue. I have long admired your great reputation. I was foolish just now, please forgive me, Lady Bai Xue."
Bai Xue glanced at him and said, "It's okay, it doesn't matter whether you know me or not. I'm just here to deliver a message for my master."
The scene erupted in uproar. A divine beast of such power could be contracted? Only some reclusive master could have the strength to subdue it.
Just as the Shi family head was still unwilling to give up and wanted to get closer to Bai Xue, the latter leaped into the air and floated there. Her snow-white body shimmered with silver light. She scanned the crowd present and shouted solemnly, "Pass on the Lord's order!"
The four words were like a thunderclap in everyone's ears, but before they could even cry out, an unstoppable pressure descended from the sky, and everyone present immediately prostrated themselves on the ground, shouting, "Your Majesty!"
Even divine beasts with high-level bloodlines like Aju and Ahua couldn't resist, and although they were unwilling, they still had to submit.
The only two exceptions on the field were Yan Lin and Dongfang Mian. Yan Lin was easy to explain. Although his strength was greatly diminished and his mind was not very sharp, he was, after all, a genuine Demon Lord, and was equal to Feng Qianxun, the Human Lord, so naturally he did not need to kneel down.
However, Dongfang Mian should not have been able to withstand such pressure. Even Yan Lin and Bai Xue found it unbelievable. Dongfang Mian touched her left wrist without thinking. When the pressure came just now, it was the Tianyin Valley token that eliminated the pressure on her body.
These two are indeed connected. I must ask Feng Qianxun about it next time I see her.
After everyone had paid their respects, Bai Xue continued, "The Lord has ordered that the Shi family head's attempt to use his innate physique to summon back the Poison God, who was sealed away by the Lord ten thousand years ago, is an act of betrayal against the Lord. He will return with me later to apologize to the Lord."
Upon hearing this, the head of the Shi family shuddered and collapsed to the ground, his heart filled with regret and despair.
Bai Xue ignored him and continued, "Although the Shi family was disrespectful first, the Lord has calculated that the young master has a master-disciple relationship with him and is willing to accept the young master of the Shi family as his disciple, to serve under the Lord, and to order him to take over the Shi family. Young master of the Shi family, are you willing?"
To be accepted as a disciple by the Lord?! This is something countless people wouldn't even dare to dream of!
The baby was overjoyed. He looked at Dongfang Mian and saw her nod and smile at him. Then he bowed deeply and said, "The baby is willing to serve under the Lord."
Bai Xue nodded, "From now on, you can call the Lord Master 'Master'."
Everyone present shared a common thought: as long as the Shi family had Bao Bao, they would be an unshakeable force in the Medicine Domain. It seemed that the Shi family would dominate the Medicine Domain from now on.
The Shi family head was filled with regret, beating his chest and stamping his feet. If he had known that Bao Bao and the Human Lord would have a master-disciple relationship, who would have cared about an ancestor who had been dead for ten thousand years? He would have treated Bao Bao like an ancestor long ago.
What he didn't know was that Feng Qianxun was willing to take Bao Bao as her disciple for two reasons: firstly, Bao Bao was truly exceptionally talented, and secondly, it was out of respect for Dongfang Mian. Bai Xue firmly believed that Feng Qianxun was doing this to get closer to Dongfang Mian, but Feng Qianxun herself never admitted it.
After explaining the baby's situation, Bai Xue turned her attention to the anxious Mu family.
