Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1885: 488: Jade-faced Demon, Shen Baishuang!

Two weeks later, Lu Quanzhen reached the Immortal City on the island, ready to collect in-depth details about the [Kunpeng’s Nest] and restock his supply of elixir pills and protective talismans.

But right after he stepped ashore and stepped inside the city gates, a strange sensation hit him, causing him to lift his gaze toward the vast sky above.

A brilliant and splendid beam of light appeared, resembling a vibrant rainbow piercing the heavens, crashing down in an instant upon the island's Fourth Rank Grand Array.

"Xu Xuanz, get out here for me!"

A chilling and commanding voice echoed across the skies and the land.

Outside the island's protective formation, the scarlet glow slowly faded away, unveiling a breathtaking woman clad in a lavish red gown, evoking the image of a peony flourishing amid raging crimson fires.

Her countenance shimmered with a veiled allure, her traits resembling blooms viewed through fog or the moon's reflection on a serene lake, difficult to grasp fully, though her refined and pale features hinted at peerless elegance.

Her stature stood particularly lofty and elegant, with flowing raven locks tumbling over her shoulders, partially cascading across her form and partially reaching down to her elevated, curvaceous hips, like the finest threads of silk.

The crimson attire, crafted as if from sunset clouds and phoenix plumes, gleamed in perfect unity with the world around, bathing her refined silhouette in an ethereal, illusory radiance.

Though her appearance and shape remained shrouded in enigma, obscuring a clear view, intentionally or not, the bold swell of her chest appeared poised to strain against its confines, offering fleeting views of flesh as pristine as fresh snow and silky as polished jade.

Below her slim waistline, the scarlet skirt parted high up to the thigh, and with the wind's gentle stir, the fabric fluttered, now and then exposing a tempting glimpse of snowy skin that captivated onlookers, drawing them to imagine the secrets hidden under her hems.

"Nascent Soul True Lord!"

Lu Quanzhen gazed at this mature and seductive beauty, his pulse racing wildly as he recognized her as an unrivaled temptress!

Still, he swiftly regained his calm, refusing to entertain even a trace of irreverence.

Nascent Soul True Lord!

This lady was a Nascent Soul True Lord!

The Xu Xuanz she called out to was the master of this island, likewise a Nascent Soul expert.

Her boldness in directly challenging a Nascent Soul True Lord showed her immense influence and strength.

Lu Quanzhen could merely lament his misfortune, hardly anticipating such a spectacle mere moments after his arrival.

Should these two Nascent Soul powerhouses clash, the island might not plunge into the depths, but chaos would surely erupt, possibly leading to a full lockdown.

"Who is this, daring to call the island master by name!"

"Nascent Soul True Lord, she’s a Nascent Soul True Lord!"

"This woman seems to be the Second Palace Master of Penglai Island’s Goddess Palace, the ’Jade-faced Demon’ Shen Baishuang!"

Not just Lu Quanzhen, but every cultivator on Xu Xuan Island jolted at this overwhelming presence and shout, turning their eyes skyward and murmuring in astonishment.

Countless individuals found themselves entranced by the woman's mesmerizing yet foggy features and outline, her commanding aura crushing their minds and leaving their souls exposed and vulnerable.

"I greet Shen Palace Master, may I ask what brings your excellency to our Xu Xuan Island? I shall report to the ancestor."

At once, a Core Formation cultivator soared forward, offering a deep bow to the red-clad woman beyond the barrier, avoiding her direct gaze lest his spirit shatter and meet its end under her might.

"Why bother with such formalities!"

The red-gowned woman advanced with a graceful stride, her calves resembling flawless mutton-fat jade, slipped into ornate shoes that mirrored the hues of twilight skies.

The intricate designs on those shoes appeared to burst with a hundred blossoms unfurling and divine birds soaring aloft, generating a scarlet shimmer that enhanced her voluptuous, passionate form with an opulent and regal splendor.

As her statement landed, a supreme Nascent Soul-level pressure descended upon the island's defenses, stirring massive waves across every part of the land, while the hazy spiritual glow of the array trembled and boomed.

In the following instant.

"Shen Baishuang, what brings you to my Xu Xuan Island!"

A venerable voice, booming like a massive bell, thundered forth, filling the heavens and earth with a grave and imposing weight.

Xu Xuanz!

All recognized this tone as belonging to the island's lord!

"This woman is the Second Palace Master of Goddess Palace, Shen Baishuang?"

Lu Quanzhen cast another look at the scarlet figure hovering above, feeling a touch of astonishment within.

After years dwelling in the Starry Sky Sea, he possessed a fair grasp of local affairs.

Among the premier forces, Penglai Island and Goddess Palace stood out prominently.

The Great Palace Master, Shen Jianjia, ranked among the foremost Nascent Soul experts in the Starry Sky Sea!

Her profound cultivation aside, she boasted stunning looks and widespread acclaim, once courted in her earlier days by the leading Demon Cultivator of the Starry Sky Sea, the Six Path Demon Lord, as well as the top alchemist there.

The Second Palace Master, Shen Baishuang.

While her might fell short of her sibling Shen Jianjia, she exuded incomparable charm, achieving Nascent Soul breakthrough a century prior, her reputation echoing across the Starry Sky Sea much like her sister's.

Furthermore, beyond Goddess Palace's support, the former Manor Master of Sword Casting Manor had journeyed to Goddess Palace years back to seek a union for his son Lin Yuanting with this Second Palace Master.

Hence, supporting this Second Palace Master were not only Goddess Palace but also Sword Casting Manor, yet another Nascent Soul powerhouse, rendering her nearly invincible!

"I remember this Shen Second Palace Master only broke through to Nascent Soul a hundred years ago, why dare to challenge Xu Xuan Island?"

"The fame of this Second Palace Master, you must have heard of it, she’s called ’Rouge Tiger’, ’Jade-faced Demon’, prone to massacre and annihilation."

"Since she broke through to Nascent Soul, any forces provoking her within Penglai Island’s domain have been thoroughly exterminated by her, the most famous being forty years ago when a force associated with Sword Casting Manor was involved, and her husband Lin Yuanting intervened, only to be gravely injured by her..."

"Hiss, so ruthless? I remember her husband is also a Nascent Soul True Lord?"

Since this Second Palace Master broke through to Nascent Soul, she’s been quite active in the Starry Sky Sea, hence the numerous rumors.
