Lu Yuguan's words instantly silenced the entire Baiyu Hall. Everyone's expressions varied, some were ashen, some were confused, as if a pot of paste had been thrown on their faces.

Bai Zheng's face was stunned for a moment, but he quickly recovered his composure: "The meal has been prepared by the servants. Today is your initiation ceremony, and it's very important."

"How dare you!" A roar came from the left, and the old voice was obviously angry.

"Elder Bai Zhen, if you have anything to say, please wait until the ceremony is over." Bai Zheng looked at the old man in black with white hair and said.

Bai Zhen stood up from his seat and began to shout at Lu Yuguan, "I came to the capital today and have already given the head of the family enough respect. But who could have known that the one who wanted to be included in the family tree would be such an ignorant and uneducated brat. Although I, Bai Zhen, am the fourth elder and my influence is not great, I will never allow this boy to tarnish the family tree!"

After hearing Bai Zhen's words, the clansmen who had no good impression of Lu Yuguan began to whisper to each other.

"The elder is right. Even if he is the head of the family's child, he is still a bastard. How can we do this?"

"Hey, let alone writing it into the main vein, I heard that it is a five-element mixed spiritual root. I'm afraid even the subordinates can't compare to it?"

"Yeah, yeah, such a loser, and not even surnamed Bai, even if he changed his surname, I would still feel ashamed."

……

Lu Yuguan just looked at everyone in the hall quietly. No matter what they talked about, his expression did not change at all.

Bai Ming sneered at the farce in front of him, feeling even more proud. Originally, he felt a little threatened by this bastard who came out of nowhere, but after what happened today, he might not even be able to enter the family tree.

"Quiet." Bai Zheng mobilized his spiritual power, and his majestic rebuke echoed throughout the Baiyu Hall. "Yuguan has the blood of the Bai family in his body. He has been wandering outside for more than ten years, so it is inevitable that he has some wildness, but he is still a descendant of my Bai family and my son."

Lu Yuguan's eyes were full of stars, and the way he looked at his cheap father changed.

"System, I want to sing a song called "Father" to express my inner feelings." Lu Yuguan said to the system.

[Host, considering your level, I think you're quite elegant even if you don't sing out loud.]

Lu Yuguan: Don’t scream at me.

Before Lu Yuguan could react, the two concubines next to the main seat spoke first.

"Yuguan seldom comes back, so it's normal that she's not familiar with everyone. When Luhua was in the Bai Mansion, you owed her a lot of favors, so don't forget them. Now you're biting her child in return, don't be so mean." As soon as the eldest aunt opened her mouth, the entire Bai Yutang didn't dare to say a word, even Bai Zhen, who had been aggressive just now, sat back down.

Wow, do I, as the eldest aunt, have such a big say?

Lu Yuguan swallowed and looked at the gentle lady with gratitude.

"Yuguan is a child. He can be taught everything about etiquette. Besides, he is Bai Ming's younger brother. Bai Ming can teach him at least." Seeing that Bai Zheng and the eldest concubine had spoken, the second concubine quickly took up the conversation.

Lu Yuguan looked at Bai Ming's biological mother, and indeed there was a smile in the corner of her eyes, without showing any expression, as if Bai Ming's targeting had nothing to do with her.

"My mother is right. Since my third brother has returned, I, as his elder brother, naturally have the obligation to take care of him," Bai Ming said nervously. "My eldest brother is not in the capital, so my second brother is your support. From now on, I will let my second brother guide you in your cultivation."

Lu Yuguan looked at Bai Ming with disdain, finally understanding what the mother and son were planning.

Second Aunt continued, "I heard that when Yu Guan was brought back to the capital by the Xuanyu Sect elders, he already had some cultivation. I wonder what his qualifications were or what realm he was in?"

Okay, okay, just play dirty tricks on me here.

When Lu Yuguan thought of the two skills given by the system, he smiled in his heart and said to the system: "System, today is another day of loving you!"

System: ...nervous.

"Yuguan, just say it." Although Bai Zheng frowned, his words were still as firm as ever. Even if his child was a loser, he was determined to protect him to the end.

"If you're too embarrassed to talk about it, then there's no need to say more." Bai Zhen's expression was grim, but his words were still harsh. "The family tree initiation ceremony requires testing your spiritual roots and cultivation. Even if you don't want to talk about it, it has to be made public."

This damn old man, didn't he just say he wanted to eat? Why is he targeting me like this?

Lu Yuguan sighed as if he had been frustrated, and sat cross-legged on the cushion in the middle of the hall.

"Xi'er, actually I really don't want to be so outstanding..." Lu Yuguan was secretly shocked.

[If you want to speed through the cultivation process, I can help you now.]

"Woo woo, Brother Tongzi, don't do that."

system:……

Lu Yuguan had just taken his seat when he saw a fat and kind old man walking out from the seats of the elders. He had the face of Maitreya Buddha.

"Third Young Master, I'm the fifth elder of the Bai family. You can just call me Elder Bai Wu," Bai Wu said with a smile as he pulled out a pure white prism from his arms. "This is a crystal of spiritual energy, a product of the condensation of spiritual stones. Young Master, try inputting spiritual energy into it, and the color will reveal your spiritual root type."

Lu Yuguan pressed his hands on the edge of the stone and felt his palms were cool and very comfortable.

"Is it really necessary to go through so much trouble with a mere useless Five Elements spiritual root?" Bai Ming sarcastically thought to himself, his eyes revealing disdain.

But when Bai Ming met Lu Yuguan's eyes, he was calm and even a little provocative.

Is he... is he mocking me? Bai Ming's mouth twitched, but something he didn't expect happened.

"Look, it's bright, it's bright!"

"Such a pure color, such a rich aura!"

Everyone in Baiyutang was looking up, and the tribesmen who had wanted to laugh at the joke couldn't stop talking.

"This... this is..." Elder Bai Wu suddenly widened his eyes, looking at the deep green light bursting out of the prism stone, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Impossible, impossible!" Bai Ming couldn't bear the stimulation and left his seat and walked forward, repeatedly observing the crystal clear green crystal. "Didn't we say it was a five-element waste spiritual root? Why is there only one color?"

Lu Yuguan looked at his panicked expression and just wanted him to kneel down and sing Conquer.

Hi hi hi, you must be dumbfounded, little sour chicken.

The other elders present could not contain their excitement. Bai Zhen even grabbed the armrests on both sides of the chair, his lips trembling.

"It's a great honor for the Bai family, it's a great honor for the Bai family..." Bai Zheng's eyes were red and swollen, and his voice was trembling. "Elder Bai Wu, can you announce the spiritual root attributes of my son Yuguan?"

Elder Bai Wu came to his senses after hearing Bai Zheng's words, and exclaimed loudly -

"Lu Yuguan, the third son of Bai Zheng, the direct descendant of the Bai family, has a top-grade single-attribute wood spiritual root and is at the fourth stage of the Dust Transformation Stage!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire Baiyu Hall fell silent, and almost everyone could not believe their ears.

A top-grade single spiritual root? The fourth stage of the Dust Transformation Stage?

Either one of them would shock the entire capital, let alone the two of them appearing together!

Let me ask you, in the entire Bai family, apart from the ancestor who has a top-grade single-attribute water spiritual root, who else can have such a talent?

May I ask, in the entire capital, how many families can possess single-attribute spiritual roots?

"The Bai family is really in trouble." Bai Zheng muttered to himself.

At this moment, Lu Yuguan really wanted to hold a cigarette between his index and middle fingers (minors are not allowed to imitate this), and then slowly say something like "Top talent? Oh, it's nothing more than that."

"Jiangjiang, what do you think of my ability to control the situation?" Lu Yuguan was looking forward to the system's reply.

[Host, humility is a virtue, pride and complacency are not desirable]

“…You’re so heartless.”

【Um. 】

[…What is Jiangjiang called? ]

"As long as you like it." Lu Yuguan said indifferently.

System: ...what?

Bai Zheng hurriedly ordered the elders to take out the family tree and prepare to write down Lu Yuguan's name.

The elders were extremely anxious and in a panic, fearing that this sudden hot commodity would fly away in the next second.

"Master, since the third young master is going to be included in the family tree, shouldn't his name also follow the Bai family's surname?" Bai Zhen suddenly said this, leaving everyone puzzled.

Yes, how can a male who is not surnamed Bai be included in the family tree?

"Father, the Fourth Elder is right. I also think this is inappropriate. It would be better to let Third Brother change his surname before writing it in." Seeing Bai Zhen interrupting again, Bai Ming immediately jumped out to agree.

Damn it, you just can’t stand seeing me do well, right?

Lu Yuguan hated him so much that he had secretly drawn countless circles to curse him.

"This..." Bai Zheng was also at a loss for a moment, not knowing what to say.

"My dear husband, there's no need to worry. Elders, there's no need to be so rigid. Yuguan is naturally gifted. Even if the Bai family doesn't want him, other families will surely vie for him," the eldest aunt, who had been watching the drama for a long time, said again. "Yuguan's return home was already quite difficult. His biological mother passed away, and he lost all his memories. The only thing he was left with was the surname 'Lu'. Are you still trying to embarrass him?"

The way Lu Yuguan looked at his aunt was different. If he was just curious before, now he was completely impressed.

It seems that my aunt has a good relationship with my biological mother, otherwise why would she protect me so much?

"That's it, let's keep Yuguan's surname and still write him in the family tree as Lu. Let others say whatever they want about Yuguan. Whether it's Lu Yuguan or Bai Yuguan, he is my good son, Bai Zheng." Bai Zheng looked at Lu Yuguan, his eyes full of doting.

"Since the head of the family has said so, we will not refute it." The elders looked at each other and agreed.

Lu Yuguan looked around at everyone in Bai Yutang calmly, with shock and envy in his eyes, but no longer with the contempt he had before.

"Bai Ming, take good care of your third brother from now on and don't let him suffer any grievances." Bai Zheng looked at his two eldest sons and said with a smile.

"Ah...ah?" Bai Ming was so bitter that he couldn't express it. He had wanted to laugh at this bastard, but he didn't expect to get himself involved.

Lu Yuguan gently placed her small hand on her cheap second brother's shoulder and said lightly, "From now on, I will rely on my second brother to take care of me."

Bai Ming clenched his fists, but it was no use, so he could only let go.

"By the way, my bottleneck has loosened a little recently. I believe I will be able to break through in a few days--" Lu Yuguan followed up in Bai Ming's ear.

Bai Ming looked at Lu Yuguan's mean face and suddenly felt unwell.

Since there is an inscription, why worry about it?
