Eternal life begins with saving my clan-Chapter 238: Assembly of all the younger generation.

Amidst the bustling activity in Baiyun city, as thousands of young men and women from various clans flocked towards the heart of the city, a palpable tension gripped the air.

Confused by the Prefecture lord's announcement, all the clans decided to investigate the mysterious happenings in Baiyun city.

The streets of Baiyun city were transformed, now teeming with unfamiliar faces. Young masters and misses, adorned in luxurious robes, strutted through the city with an air of pride and arrogance.

Yet, an odd unease hung over them, as if they were cautious and wary of an unseen force.

Despite their apparent superiority, none of them acted overbearingly toward the ordinary mortals populating the streets.

It was as if an unspoken rule had restrained their behavior, a silent acknowledgment of something greater at play.

As the young elites arrived, the city witnessed a rapid escalation in prices. Every commodity seemed inflated, a consequence of the sudden influx of wealth and demand.

Restaurants and hotels, once quiet establishments, now overflowed with patrons. Baiyun city had transformed into a lively hub, resonating with the vibrant energy of its temporary guests.

Among the various establishments, the Celestial Heavenly store stood out as the focal point of attention.

News about the magical abilities of the Spirit Comms had spread like wildfire, captivating the imagination of hundreds of thousands of people.

They gathered in front of every Celestial Heavenly store, eager to witness the marvels promised by the mysterious artifacts.

However, beneath the veneer of excitement and prosperity, the city harbored the perfect breeding ground for nefarious activities.

The lively atmosphere presented an opportune moment for the unscrupulous to exploit the unsuspecting visitors.

In the shadowy corners and secluded alleyways, whispers of illicit deals and covert plans circulated.

Thieves and swindlers, emboldened by the chaos, sought to prey on the distracted newcomers.

The city's underworld awakened, taking advantage of the distraction caused by the grand arrival of the clans.

Inside the opulent city lord mansion, Xiao Bai sat behind an ornate wooden table, surrounded by a towering stack of papers that demanded his attention.

His forehead creased with a deep frown as he sifted through the heap of documents, each one bearing the weight of decisions that could shape the fate of Baiyun city.

The door swung open, and Xiao Bai's butler rushed in, bearing the urgency of the situation. "My lord, the city is full, and more people are still pouring in."

"I know," Xiao Bai responded without lifting his head, his mind engrossed in the formidable task of managing the unanticipated influx of visitors.

The butler, sensing the gravity of the situation, pressed further. "What should we do? We can't allow them to continue flooding in unchecked."

"I know!" Xiao Bai replied tersely, his frustration palpable. He had pondered over the predicament, but a viable solution had proven elusive.

Compounding the challenge was the escalating chaos in the city streets due to the surging numbers.

Just as the pressure mounted, Xiao Bai's Spirit Comms buzzed with an incoming call. Upon answering, he discovered it was Su Yen on the other end of the line.

The conversation was brief, yet it provided Xiao Bai with a directive that could potentially alleviate the mounting predicament.

Closing the call, Xiao Bai gazed at his butler and issued a decisive command. "Tell the guards to halt anyone from entering. Only those who arrive by order of the prefecture lord should be allowed inside."

Outside the city gates, a throng of eager individuals awaited entry, oblivious to the unfolding developments. Suddenly, the massive gates swung shut, sealing off the bustling city from the eager newcomers.

Confusion rippled through the waiting crowd as whispers and murmurs swirled about. The captain of the guards stepped forward, addressing the disgruntled gathering.

"Due to the overwhelming number of arrivals, the city has reached its capacity. Those who come by order of the prefecture lord shall remain outside and find lodging there."

A wave of frustration swept through the multitude. Angry voices rose, expressing grievances and discontent.

The once-thriving atmosphere shifted to one of unrest as the realization set in that not everyone would gain entry to the prosperous Baiyun city.

As Xiao Bai's directive took effect, the challenge of managing the city's unexpected surge in population continued to unfold, casting a shadow over the usually serene streets.

Thousands of meters from the closed city gate, a resplendent assembly of individuals created a mesmerizing tapestry of opulence and power.

Dressed in a kaleidoscope of vibrant and extravagant robes, each figure exuded an air of affluence and nobility.

At the forefront of this assembly were the young masters and young misses, their attires adorned with intricate embroidery and luxurious fabrics that shimmered in the sunlight.

The hues of their clothing ranged from royal purples to deep blues, each color reflecting the prestige and influence of their respective clans.

The powerful elders, guardians of tradition and wisdom, stood stoically behind their charges, their countenances a testament to years of experience and martial prowess.

Clad in garments that bore symbols of their clans' legacy, the elders radiated an aura of authority that commanded respect even from a distance.

The extravagant robes billowed in the breeze, creating a scene reminiscent of a grand imperial court.

Golden threads caught the sunlight, adding a touch of celestial splendor to the ensemble. Jewels and precious gems adorned belts, collars, and headpieces, reflecting the wealth and prestige of each clan.

As the young masters and young misses conversed with hushed tones, the elders observed the closed city gate with a mix of curiosity and expectation.

Their expressions, though composed, hinted at the intricate webs of political maneuvering and competition that lay beneath the surface.

The atmosphere surrounding this illustrious assembly was not just one of affluence but also of subtle tension.

The closed gates posed a challenge to the expected hospitality of Baiyun city, and the powerful clans, though outwardly composed, harbored a collective eagerness to witness how the city lord would navigate this unforeseen predicament.

The top ten clans in the prefecture, known for their formidable heritage and distinguished inheritance, gathered at a distance from the closed city gate.

Each clan bore a legacy that had earned them respect even from the prefecture lord himself.

Among this elite assembly stood the ten strongest younger individuals of the Zizhu prefecture, each representing their respective clans.

One young man, donned in a distinctive green robe, emanated an air of pride and arrogance as he surveyed the city in the distance.

"I don't know what father was thinking, asking me to come to this backward place," he grumbled with disdain, his expression mirroring his contempt for the surroundings.

His guardian, an old man of wisdom and experience, stood quietly behind him, responding, "I believe your father had his reasons for sending you here."

"I know. But I believe the Hidden Dragon Tournament should be our main concern, not this," the young man retorted, his pride refusing to accept the circumstances.

"I understand how you feel, but there is nothing we can do about it when it comes from your father," the guardian sighed, well aware of the complexities that bound family decisions.

A short distance away, two striking women captured the attention of onlookers. One, an older woman, represented the second most powerful figure among the top ten clans.

The other, a young and vibrant miss, radiated an energy that hinted at her strength and potential.

The young miss, unapologetically blunt, voiced her discontent, "What are we doing here?"

The middle-aged woman accompanying her responded with a hint of confusion, "I don't know..."

"Then we should go to the city instead of staying here like fools," the young miss proclaimed, her bold words echoing amidst the assembly.

The older woman, accustomed to the brashness of the younger generation, rolled her eyes but maintained her composure.

She understood that the Hidden Dragon Tournament held a greater allure for the younger members, and this unexpected diversion seemed to have left them disoriented.

The sudden, powerful shriek reverberated through the air, sending shivers down the spines of everyone present.

It was a sound that demanded attention, and instantly, each member of the top ten clans turned their heads toward the source of the unsettling noise.

In the distance, against the backdrop of the vast sky, a majestic aerial beast soared with unparalleled grace and power. Its wings sliced through the air, leaving a trail of mystic energy in its wake.

The top clans, esteemed for their lineage and strength, found themselves in silent awe, their gazes fixed on the incoming creature.

As the beast drew nearer, the assembly discerned that it carried an unexpected passenger on its back.

A person, veiled in mystery, sat atop the creature, their silhouette outlined against the radiant sky. The clans exchanged bewildered glances, attempting to make sense of the unprecedented spectacle unfolding before them.

The young man in the green robe, momentarily distracted from his disdain for the surroundings, couldn't help but feel a surge of curiosity.

His arrogant facade momentarily faltered, replaced by an intrigued expression as he watched the approaching spectacle.

The guardian, with years of experience etched onto his countenance, squinted to get a clearer view.

"What is that?" he muttered, his voice barely audible above the murmurings of the assembly.
