Chapter 2075: Heavenly White Tiger Clan After nearly an entire day, Yuan returned to Bai Sulan and Feng Yuxiang’s side. "Where did you go?" Bai Sulan asked, her eyes filled with curiosity. "To the serpent’s lair." Bai Sulan continued asking, "Then did you find any treasures?" In her eyes, there was only one reason why Yuan went out of his way to go there, and that reason was to find treasures. "No, there was no treasure." "Then why are you covering up the tunnel?" Bai Sulan raised her eyebrows in a doubtful manner, as Yuan was currently closing up the hole to the tunnel, clearly trying to hide something. "What’s wrong with fixing a massive hole in the ground? I don’t want anyone accidentally falling into it." Bai Sulan’s jaw dropped at his terrible excuse and said a moment later, "You do realize that we’re deep into the Heavenly White Tiger Clan’s territory, right? Only magical beasts roam this area, and even they’re not stupid enough to fall into such a massive hole." Yuan smiled and said, "If you don’t believe me, you’re free to check it out yourself. There’s really no treasure there." "..." Bai Sulan looked at the hole with intrigue, but she ultimately shook her head and said, "No, it’s fine. I don’t really care." Yuan then spoke, "Anyway, what about your trial?" Bai Sulan retrieved a Phantasm Serpent corpse from her spatial ring and said, "Fortunately, I defeated one before that massive serpent ambushed me, so I didn’t fail my trial." "So you’re ready to return to the Heavenly White Tiger Clan?" Yuan asked. She nodded, "Yes, I can return now." Once Yuan completely filled the hole, he followed Bai Sulan to the Heavenly White Tiger Clan, which took nearly a week of journey. "We will arrive at my home soon," said Bai Sulan, who was traveling in her beast form. A few hours later, Yuan and Feng Yuxiang spotted a cluster of white buildings appearing in the distance. As they drew closer, Yuan could sense numerous powerful presences emanating from the area. "We’re here!" Bai Sulan declared. When they reached the massive gates, the guard there approached Bai Sulan and asked, "Who are these two with you?" "They’re my friends and savior," she said. "They are also here for Senior Brother Xutao and Senior Sister Ning." "Your savior...?" The guard looked at her with raised eyebrows. "Yes, they saved me from an accident," she said, purposefully not giving too many details as she didn’t want to appear weak. "Alright." The guard gave her a quick nod before opening the gates for them. "Let’s go, handsome little brother." Bai Sulan walked over to Yuan and suddenly held his hand, pulling him toward the entrance. When she noticed Feng Yuxiang staring at her with a sharp gaze, she chuckled and explained, "I am doing this so the others won’t bother him. This may sound weird, but handsome little brother here has an attractive scent to him. I fear he might become overwhelmed by the females in our clan if they see him." "An attractive scent?" Feng Yuxiang tilted her head closer to Yuan and leaned in, giving him a deep, deliberate sniff. "He does smell very good, but I don’t get it—not to say my Young Master isn’t attractive. Or maybe I am just used to it by now," she remarked. "It’s very subtle, but we Heavenly White Tigers have a strong sense of smell," said Bai Sulan. Once they were inside, Bai Sulan said, "I’ll bring you to our guest room for now. As for meeting with Senior Sister Ning or Senior Brother Xutao, you’ll have to speak with their servants." "Sure." As Bai Sulan led them to the guest room, Yuan and Feng Yuxiang could sense numerous presences gathering around them, though none revealed themselves directly. "I knew you’d attract the others, but I didn’t expect this many to show up this quickly," Bai Sulan remarked when she also noticed their presence. "Should I be worried?" Yuan asked calmly. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞 "No... at least not yet," Bai Sulan replied. "We’re still in the outer area, where most of the lower-ranking members live. As long as I’m with you, they won’t dare come too close." "Lower-ranking?" Yuan asked. "It’s similar to how sects work," Bai Sulan explained. "We’re divided by the quality of our bloodline." "I’m from the main family, so my status is automatically at the top. Also, while everyone is required to complete trials, those of us in the main family face far harsher requirements, and for us, failure simply isn’t an option, as we are killed for it." "Meanwhile, the others train as soldiers or servants. If their bloodline meets the standards, they might earn a chance to move up in rank. Oh—and it’s strictly forbidden for those with high-quality bloodlines to breed with lower-quality ones, so only those of the same rank are allowed to mate." To preserve and strengthen their bloodline, it was common for beasts to engage in selective breeding practices like this. Of course, humans weren’t much better, and they simply used talent as their measure instead. That’s why geniuses often look down on those with inferior talent and arranged marriages between two powerful families are incredibly common. "What’s the population like in your clan?" Feng Yuxiang suddenly asked. Bai Sulan pondered for a moment before responding, "Around 3,000,000, I guess." "That’s quite the population..." Yuan mumbled with a surprised look on his face. "That’s because we Heavenly White Tigers often give birth to more than one child at a time. In fact, anything beyond four children is considered abnormal," said Bai Sulan. "So not only are you guys perverted, but you also have ridiculous reproductive capabilities?" Feng Yuxiang remarked. "P-Perverted...?" Bai Sulan could only shake her head in silence at Feng Yuxiang’s remark since she wasn’t entirely wrong. Eventually, they reached the next area, where the middle-ranking members lived. "I only have enough authority to bring you this far into our territory. Wait here while I contact Senior Sister Ning and Senior Brother Xutao’s servants for you," Bai Sulan said once they arrived at the guest house.
