Chapter 380 Double Happiness
However, his daughter's progress did surprise him a little. Bai Zhendong hanged up the phone and muttered, and at this moment, Bai Sihong's phone called in.
Through the phone, Bai Zhendong quickly learned that his father had also obtained the news of his daughter's breakthrough, and the source of the news was beyond words, it must be Xiaoling.
This is not to say that Xiaoling repeatedly jumped between Bai Xiao and Bai Sihong. Everyone's interests were consistent, so no one was closer to each other or betrayed anyone. On the phone, Bai Sihong asked Bai Zhendong to go back to Baixian Village first. After hearing the tone was serious, Bai Zhendong agreed without hesitation. Then he called the secretary and explained what he was doing at work and rushed to Baixian Village.
By the time the village was already noon, the scorching sun was hanging in the sky, and the summer was extremely powerful, but Bai Zhendong's heart was calm.
The lush green bamboos on the back mountain are connected together, rustling under the breeze, revealing a bit of tranquility.
Bai Zhendong looked at the family ancestral temple built along the mountain, and felt that the ancient ancestral temple seemed to have become more majestic and also felt more intimate as the noisy cicadas crowed.
He took a breath and then stepped up the white marble steps, then entered through the gate, walked around the screen wall, and followed the corridor to the place where the ancestral hall was held for a meeting.
At this time, many people had already sat in the conference room with elegant decoration. Bai Zhendong glanced at him and there were more than a dozen Zong elders in the family. In addition, many people in the family who were about the same age as Bai Zhendong and had important positions were also present.
When everyone saw Bai Zhendong coming in, everyone's eyes turned to each other. Thinking of the reason why everyone was called back, many people couldn't help but look at Bai Zhendong with envy. Of course, some people had not had time to learn about the corresponding situation because they came too hastily, so they just smiled politely at Bai Zhendong.
Bai Zhendong was slightly stunned, then smiled and greeted them.
To be honest, this scene was a bit beyond his expectations, and it was a bit like the family annual meeting held by the family at the end of each year.
As the name suggests, the annual meeting of the Bai clan is a summary meeting led by the clan leader at the end of each year. It can be called the most important meeting of the Bai clan family. Because it overlaps with the Spring Festival, it is also the most lively time in the entire Baixian Village. At that time, the person in charge of various affairs scattered outside the village will gather in Baixian Village to report the gains and losses of the year to the clan leader and clan elders, summarize the experience and lessons, and commend annual development. Then, work together to set the goals for the year.
The Bai family’s decision-making framework is roughly like this. All major and minor matters are divided into divisions at the annual meeting, and then they are broken down into pieces and are carried out by their respective responsible persons. All matters have their own responsible persons, which is a bit like the management system of a modern company.
As for normal times, if there are no major events, the frequency of meetings within the family is actually not high. General affairs are decided by several elders who discussed it, and there is no need to convene so many people.
For Bai Zhendong and others, what everyone needs to do is to manage their own tasks step by step, such as rotating gears and making contributions to the family as much as possible.
...
Although he knew that his daughter's breakthrough was a big deal, when he noticed that so many family backbones were gathered in the conference room, Bai Zhendong found that he still underestimated his daughter's weight in the family.
In other words, before he knew it, Bai Xiao's growth had already affected the planning of the entire Bai clan.
"Zhendong, you sit down first." Nodded to Bai Zhendong, Bai Sihong said in a calm tone.
Bai Zhendong nodded, and then found a seat to sit down.
In this case, everyone's seating rankings are also very particular. As the son of the patriarch and he is a master in the late Mingzun realm, Bai Zhendong's status in the family is naturally not low, and his seat is in front.
Afterwards, Bai Sihong announced in public that Bai Xiao’s promotion to Yuantai Realm was immediately quiet for a while during the entire meeting, and then a constant voice of discussion sounded.
Twenty-two years old, Yuantai.
Such talents are undoubtedly extremely enlightened in the Bai family sequence. At this moment, many people who were unaware of the situation suddenly knew the reason why the patriarch summoned everyone.
You must know that it is the Yuantai realm. As long as you arrive at the age of 30, the future will be very promising!
It is definitely worth promoting the younger generation of the family that has emerged from the Yuantai realm. After all, this means that the family will have another reliable pillar in the future. Moreover, those who know Bai Xiao know that this child had wasted more than 20 years of cultivation because of his sixth uncle Bai Jinyuan's "misdiagnosis".
Until his talent was really unsuppressed, he shone like gold.
What does this mean? It means that her progress can no longer be taken lightly. You must know... It seems that she has actually started practicing less than half a year.
hiss!
It’s so terrifying to reach the Yuantai realm in half a year!
Many people present confessed that Si Hong received this confirmed news and suddenly had a strange feeling, as if... the efforts he had done for the first half of his life were taken out of his chest, then threw them on the ground, and repeatedly crushed with his toes. He had a heart-wrenching feeling.
They were more willing to believe that their head of the family... actually had secretly trained their granddaughters a few years ago, at least this would make them more natural to accept. But what a person Bai Sihong is, they knew clearly that their head of the family disdained to do such sneaky things, just like he used spirit stones to "feed" Xiao Ling. The fundamental reason was due to family needs, but Bai Sihong did not hide anything.
Then the same thing happened this time. Bai Xiao really took less than half a year to go from a junior spirit controler to a master in the Yuantai realm.
In the future, he will definitely become the backbone of the family.
Here, everyone automatically ignored the fact that Bai Xiao changed from a boy to a girl. To be honest, in the concept of a spirit controler, cultivation is the most important thing. Now that Bai Xiao's cultivation is rising, the younger generation is overwhelming with the skills, so there is a reason to make others look at her differently. Everyone's focus is naturally on her cultivation. As for gender, these are all minor ways. Anyway, as long as she is strong, she is a man or a woman.
Therefore, everyone's acceptance of Bai Xiao has always been very high, and no one has ever seen her with a strange look of contempt.
On the contrary, when I think of this poor child who has been a boy for more than 20 years, everyone's eyes are filled with deep pity.
Of course, the main reason for this is that Bai Xiao is beautiful enough. No matter what, people who are beautiful are always more likely to be accepted.
The so-called white covers three ugliness. Similarly, a person who looks pleasing to the eye can also make people forget many of her flaws.
The people below were talking, Bai Sihong and a sect god were watching, with a faint smile on their faces.
After everyone had almost finished discussing, Bai Sihong suppressed his hands and the whole process was quiet.
Bai Sihong looked at everyone and smiled and said, "The incident of Bai Xiao breaking through to the Yuantai realm is a major event for our Bai family. I think no one should object to her as the eldest lady of our Bai family now, right?"
"Of course not objecting!"
"Bai Xiaoxiao, as the eldest lady, is just right!"
"There is no more suitable girl in the family."
Several louder voices sounded, and Bai Zhendong didn't have to look back when he heard the sound. They were the uncles and uncles of other families. When Bai Sihong wanted to give Bai Xiao the title of the eldest lady and establish her status, they expressed their opposition. In terms of the reason, it was inevitable that the girl under his room would compete with Bai Xiao.
But at this moment, it was obvious that the winner had been decided, and even they agreed.
Joke, who dares to object at this time? That is a facade! Seeing Bai Sihong's smiling look, some of the people present couldn't help but feel contempt.
This old guy must be very beautiful now, who made it her granddaughter?

Bai Sihong looked at everyone's performance with a faint smile, and he felt very happy.
The good granddaughter earned him face, and he wondered if he would give her some small gifts.
Well, I don’t know what she likes... my body has become a girl, and my hobbies will not have any subtle changes, right?
At this moment, a person suddenly walked into the door, interrupting Bai Sihong's reverie, and looked towards the door, but there was a young man in his early thirties. Bai Sihong frowned and said, "Xiao Tao, what's the matter? I'm so irritable. Didn't you see what occasion this is?"
Bai Xiaotao is in his early thirties this year and is Bai Sihong's long-superior. To put it bluntly, he is a follower. The secretary means he is responsible for running errands for Bai Sihong on weekdays. The young man is full of vitality and efficient in his work, which is a qualified call. Of course, at his level, he does not have the opportunity to enter the conference room under such circumstances and can only guard outside the door. But at this time, Bai Xiaotao looked excited and did not care about the occasion.
"Clan leader, good news..." Bai Xiaotao's face was still excited.
"What good news?" Bai Sihong said slowly.
After all, he was familiar with Bai Xiaotao. He knew that this young man was quite reliable in doing things. In addition, what he said was "good news", which made Bai Sihong somewhat expect.
Bai Xiaotao said: "Just just now, the person responsible for waiting for the eldest son came from the news. Just now, the eldest son... broke through!"
"What?!" Bai Sihong glared at his eyes, and then looked at the reactions of others, just like him.
"You say it again?"
"Clan leader, dear elders, I just received the news that the eldest son has broken through and reached the Yuantai realm!"
Bai Xiaotao repeated it again.
The discussion suddenly rang in the conference room, and there was a lot of joyful discussion. The news brought by Bai Xiaotao really touched them.
"Okay, okay!" Bai Sihong said excitedly, "Xiaoxiao just broke through, and Yuchen broke through here. It's really... a double happiness is coming!"
"Now, one Bai Ling and one Bai Xiaoxiao, and now one Bai Yuchen, the third generation of the Bai family has been guaranteed to be safe. It is really great news."
The sixth uncle Bai Jinyuan murmured to himself.
On the side, Bai Hongrui, who is also the elder of the Zong, also nodded secretly.
Although Bai Yuchen's breakthrough seemed a little later because Bai Xiao's jade was ahead, this did not prevent everyone from being happy.
It can even be said that with Bai Yuchen's breakthrough, everyone's emotions in the conference room almost reached their peak.
Now that the Bai family has three young Yuantai masters, Bai Yuchen, Bai Xiaoxiao and Bai Ling, it is basically equivalent to announcing the form of the future team. Within the foreseeable range, no one else poses a threat to their status. In the outside world, the Bai family also has a sufficiently excellent successor, so there is no need to worry about inheritance.
This is an important signal. A stable team is very important, especially for the inheritance of the family. This moment means formally establishing the future pattern.
In the joy, some people had very complicated expressions, including Bai Wuyan, the head of the big house and Bai Jingming, the second generation of the big house. They looked at each other and sighed quietly. It seemed that the competition in the sequence had finally settled, and the third generation would also inherit the three houses represented by Bai Yuchen and others.
Bai Yuchen was originally a popular candidate, but now he has been the first to break through to the Yuantai realm, which is truly a winner.
Of course, Bai Jingming, who represents the eldest son, was unwilling to accept this result, but he had no choice but to do anything about it. Especially when Bai Yuchen had a cousin Bai Xiaoxiao, who was also newly promoted to the Yuantai realm, helped him. For a moment, what else could they do besides accepting it?
There is also a Xiao Ling, who was born in a fourth house, but she hangs with Bai Xiao all day long, obviously obeys Bai Xiao, which is equivalent to supporting Bai Yuchen.
Alas, three young Yuantai realms.
On my own, not only did the seed player lose completely, but he didn't even win the substitute of his partner.
You said, how can you compare this?
Forget it, it depends on whether the fourth generation can produce good seedlings. It will take decades to wait, and it will be helpless to think about it.
"Zhenye, go to Yuchen's side immediately now... confirm the situation!"
Although he knew that the news was absolutely reliable and the probability of misinformation was almost zero, Bai Sihong still asked his eldest son to go over and confirm.
"Okay!" Bai Zhenye immediately stood up, nodded, and walked out of the conference room.
"Take advantage of the past in Zhenye, let's discuss the new pattern of the future."
As he said in a good mood, Bai Sihong's eyes flashed. Under the sleeves that no one saw, his hands were pinched together tightly because of excitement.
Chapter completed!
