Pei Xuanjing watched Bai Xiaosheng, who was standing before him, and asked, "Since you are here now, I suppose you are confident?"
Given Bai Xiaosheng's circumstances, he would not have appeared with such boldness had he not been fully confident.
With a light chuckle, Bai Xiaosheng said, "To be honest, the reason I withdrew earlier was because I was worried that the power of Sky Mechanism Pavilion was too great and I would bring trouble to you, brother Pei, so..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Pei Xuanjing understood that Bai Xiaosheng had retreated because he knew that there were two cultivators from the Nine Realms of Spirit in the Sky Mechanism Pavilion, and he felt that he could not compete with them, hence he chose to step back.
It was only when he heard that Pei Xuanjing had suppressed the Taixu Venerable that he realised that Xuanjing could protect him, and that was why he chose to appear now.
