Shocked!
That's all the emotion people's could feel right now
After all who wouldn't? Hearing the the infamous Celestial Empress of Blue Rose having a kid would make even the old monsters shocked!
Even more so for the current young generation, we can see all the current participants including the current generation leaders, were dumbfounded.
Even Peng Gang the ever sleepy bastard has his eyes open in disbelief
And the cold and proud girl Zi Zexian also have her ever present cold face marred in shock and disbelief
And of course there are some people who didn't believe his claim, but the fact that he look like exact copy of Lan Meigui but smaller and more masculine is undeniable. Specially that hairs and eyes of his.
.
"What?!"
"Impossible! The famed Blue Rose actually have kid?!"
"whomst'd've the person foolish enough to do so?!"
"More like Lucky! have you seen her?!"
"Hush you fool! you're gonna get yourse killed! "
The peanuts gallery erupts, with many people's voice their own disbelief.
Sudd a clear voice asked a question that many people are asking
"You.... are you really son of The Blue Rose Empress lady Lan Meigui?"
The person who is asking the question is Zi Zexian, after all she idolize Lan Meigui, so finding out she has a young child is quite a suprise for her.
And Lan Xiao who is still standing observing his surrounding nodded at her
"I do understand that this might come as a suprise for a lot of people, but indeed i am Lan Meigui son, the present of sister Ge'er should be more than enough proof, but if your still do not believe me then here is a token my mother have given"
Lan Xiao flashed a special token, and although the people present do know much regarding this token, the Inner elder do however know about it.
While stroking his white beard he said
"Indeed, this token personally belong to Lady Lan Meigui, but unlike the token that usually given by her to her disciples, this token is HER actual token and not a the type of token that she gives to her disciples as identification"
Once again everyone eyes widen, after all this old man although low ranking inner elder, is still an inner elder who is part of the law enforcer for the sect.
So what he said can be quite trusted
Plus like what Lan Xiao said, the existence of You Ge do also help, after all if he was just a pretender, why would Lan Meigui first disciple guard him if he wasn't her son.
Plus NO ONE is stupid enough to do so right in the middle of the Infinity Dragon Sect, a place where she could easily strike anyone suicidal enough to do so.
.
So under everyone eyes he slowly walk toward the biggest chair with You Ge following behind him with her ever present smile, the chair that indicate who will lead the current generation which many people originally thought going to be for Zi Zexian.
when he arrive at the chair Lan Xiao only look at for a second, and without hesitation sit on it.
With him sitting relaxed in the head chair with You Ge standing beside him as guardian, peoples can't help but imagine him as a prince, which isn't really a far off thing considering who his mother is.
.
After he sit in his chair he looks toward his fellow leading young master and young lady, and to everyone suprise he gives them a friendly smile before respectfully cupping his hand and introduce himself calmly
"Senior brothers, senior sisters a pleasure meeting you all, I shall introduce myself once again, my name is Lan Xiao son of Grand Elder Lan Meigui the Celestial Empress of Blue Rose"
Although he only spoke for a small bit, he spoke without too much cockiness that they would expect, and would also understand if he did so.
This initial way of speaking quickly change some people opinion which exactly what Lan Xiao wanted.
Sure he can try to be one of those protagonist and look at these peoples with arrogant face, and refusing to be polite, but why would he do that?
By being polite that would not only make people have better opinion on him but also prevent future enemy. After all having no enemy is better that having one no matter how weak it is, having allies is better instead.
Some people might also think
'But you would look weak, people would underestimate and mock you'
The thing is all of these people are currently still processing the fact that he is Lan Meigui son, they currently aren't thinking about how powerful he is, plus he is going to show his power in this meeting anyway. This is also where having a powerful family comes in handy unlike many of usual transmigrator or reincarnator who doesn't really have much in terms of backing.
With his power plus his mother backing people would lick his boots in seconds and praising him to high heaven.
Even if he were to do some "questionable" stuff no one would question him.
.
Seeing that everything is starting to calm a little, the inner elder once again continue the conference.
"Now that everyone in here, let us have the fine young masters and young lady introduces themselves so that we all can know them much better"
And what he mean by introducing themselves is giving out their name, age and most importantly 'cultivation base'. This is where the show of power begin.
.
The first to stand up is Yu De, who with great resignation introduce himself
"My Name is Yu De 43 Years old 6th step of Nascent Soul"
After Yu De introduce himself next is Tan Zemin who introduce himself with more energy
"Hahaha I am Tan Zemin! 89! and is 4th step Nihility!"
And next is Peng Gang who is now back to his sleepy mode
"...Peng Gang...45....7th step....Nascent Soul...."
Next with her usual seductive tone is Bai Shu
"fufufu my name Bai Shu, I am only 59 years old quite young right? and is 9th step Nascent Soul"
Next is Ma Bo who introduce himself casually
"Well my name Ma Bo currently 39 years old but I am already at 4th step of Nascent Soul"
Zi Zexian next introduce herself, although her face once again show coldness, one could see if look closely enough see that is a little bit distracted.
"Zi Zexian 25 years old 1st step Nascent Soul"
A lot of people open their eyes widen after all only 25 year's old but already at Nascent Soul?
Simply Genius!
Then their eyes wonder toward Lan Xiao, wondering what sort of power the young kid have
Seeing their gaze Lan Xiao stood and calmly said
"My name is Lan Xiao 10 years old at 9th step Core Formation"
During half a year period after he absorb the Lightning Tribulations, he have manage to increase his realm all the to the 9th step of Core Formation.
"HISS"
They all open their eyes in suprise
Only ten years old but already at 9th step of Core Formation?!
Beyond Genius! simply monstrous!
As expected of Lan Meigui son!
.
Lan Xiao smile and sit down
Just like that he already made his debut according to plan, with this, his fame would spread as A genius person who almost is only one step away from Core formation at age ten!
With these people with enough iq in their brain would know that he isn't someone to be underestimate.
Then what about the young masters?
If there are one thing those poeple understand is the power of family or sect backing.
With him having his mother being a 10th step Celestial Emperor AND is the Grand Elder of The sect, those fool rather than trying to shout
"Courting Death!" At him they will most likely lick his feet to try curry a small favours at him.
Instead they will shout those word toward anyone that try to offend him or just say anything bad toward him.
While it might be kind of a scummy but hey he is after all
"The Ultimate Young Master"
A young master above young master x3!
.
Anyway back to the conference.
Zi Zexian who heard of Lan Xiao cultivation base immediately have her pride hit.
Unfortunately do to her upbringing, she develop some sort of superiority complex
So hearing a ten years old kid almost having the same level of cultivation base as she is kind of hurt her pride, even though the person infront of her completely outrank her in every sense.
So she foolishly challenge him
"Lan Xiao! I Zi Zexian challage you to a duel!"
Everyone open their mouth in suprise who would have thought the cold Zi Zexian would suddenly challenge Lan Xiao to a fight?
I mean what even the reason she challenge him in the first place? They litterally just met! not even 5 minutes! is what everyone think.
.
Lan Xiao hearing Zi Zexian challenge him narrow his eyes a bit, he already have a feel that this girl is the type of overly cold and prideful girl and also impulsive and a little bit stupid that he usually read in easten fantasy novel.
She is the type of girl that would look at everything in disdain but fall over her heel once a protagonist shows up and act cool a little bit.
He don't know why but he suddenly feel urge to bully her, so he accept the challenge.... with a condition,
Masking his though, he gives her a pleasant smile and answer her
"I agree BUT if I win you would be my maid, how about it"
And for the many time today and will happen more, once again the people's open wide.
although some of them believe he will accept the challenge, none of expect he would tell her to be his maid if he win, I am afraid if it were anyone else, they would probably recieve Zi Kong golden fist just from thinking about it if he was here.
Unfortunately for Zi Zexian, Lan Meigui is waaaaaaaay above their weight, once Zi Zexian accept this there is no going back, specially with this many people watching.
Zi Zexian guardian who know about this immediately warned the young lady but unfortunately too late
"Wait! Lady Zi Zexian Don-
"I ACCEPT!"
Without hesitation with her eyes blazing in Fury, Zi Zexian unknowingly already sealed her fate as Lan Xiao first maid.
