Chapter 888: Where is Master!?
Cicada Song’s proclamation immediately stunned Gao Feng.
Gao Feng instinctively stuck his fingers into his ears to clean them out in case he had misheard.
However, he suddenly remembered how inappropriate it was for him to clean out his ears right in front of Cicada Song.
Cicada Song reached out to adjust Gao Feng’s collar and said, “What’s wrong? Don’t you want to be my disciple?”
Gao Feng snapped out of his confused trance. He was not stupid and would never reject Cicada Song’s public invitation to be his disciple.
Nonetheless, Gao Feng did not understand which part of him was worthy enough for Cicada Song to want to accept him as a disciple.
It could not be because of his father or even his grandfather.
Gao Feng thought hard about this question and realized that it had to be because of his performance on the Martial Stage.
This was the only possible explanation.
The Breeze Hibiscus and Spirit Spring Lily were definitely not enough to catch the attention of Cicada Song.
Hence, it had to be because of the secret weapon that he had not even told his father about, the Yellow Spring Lily.
From the moment Gao Feng had seen the Yellow Spring Lily, he decided to use the Elemental Sh.e.l.lfish and Island Whale to trade for it.
Moreover, he had been delighted by the exclusive skill that the Yellow Spring Lily had attained after evolving to Fantasy Breed.
Gao Feng could not help but be grateful to Lin Yuan.
Although he had used his own resources to trade for the Yellow Spring Lily, if Lin Yuan had not produced the Yellow Spring Lily in the first place, Gao Feng would not have been able to trade for it.
Lin Yuan was the blessing that had given him the opportunity to change his life!
While Gao Feng was thinking, he was still alert enough to hastily nod and say, “I want to, I’m willing!”
Night Leaning Moon frowned when she heard what Cicada Song said and seemed annoyed.
The Guard Ye Banquet was meant for her and Xiyue to debut their disciples, so she felt that Cicada Song’s sudden acceptance of Gao Feng as his disciple was stealing the thunder.
Night Leaning Moon already knew that Cicada Song wanted to accept Gao Feng as his disciple, but she had a.s.sumed that he would contact the Gao family privately after the Guard Ye Banquet.
She never expected him to make such a public announcement.
But regardless of her displeasure, she injected spiritual power into the floor, and the mechanisms behind Cicada Song’s seat s.h.i.+fted to produce another chair.
Cicada Song dragged Gao Feng over to the new chair before returning to his own seat.
Although he had just accepted Gao Feng as his disciple, he was already acting in such a considerate manner.
Iron Prison could not help but be envious of Cicada Song’s acceptance of a disciple, but none of the disciples’ performance on the Martial Stage had been noteworthy.
The only young disciples who had had the chance to show off their fighting power were Zong Ze and Lin Yuan.
Besides Lin Yuan, Zong Ze, and Liu Jie, Iron Prison was not interested in anyone else.
Although Du Shuo had put up a good fight with Liu Jie, Iron Prison was still not interested because he felt that Du Shuo’s feys were strong but unable to form a united system. Hence, there was nothing special about him.
Gao Feng was still shaken up, but he was more excited than panicked.
Thanks to Liu Jie, he had already counted himself lucky to have won second place in the Martial Stage.
Now that he was Cicada Song’s disciple, he was no longer just lucky.
Gao Pei beamed brightly and held his head up high as he basked in the envious gazes all around him.
The veteran and top faction leaders were already aware that Cicada Song wanted to accept Gao Feng as his disciple.
After shooting jealous looks at Gao Feng, the other young disciples turned their attention to the two young men walking out of the long corridor.
The sight of the young men’s attire created shockwaves that could even be felt in the depths of one’s soul.
They were dressed in similar coronation costumes to what the Moon Empress and Chief Guard Ye were wearing.
A moment later, they noticed that the two young men’s coronation costumes did not have the coronation patterns.
Although Liu Jie was wearing the coronation costume, he was still wearing the standard Spirit Guard mask.
Nonetheless, Liu Jie and Lin Yuan’s charisma dominated the room, and no one could look away from the handsome men clad in ostentatious coronation costumes.
The veteran and top factions’ leaders and young disciples could not even begin to imagine how much the Moon Empress and Chief Guard Ye doted on their disciples for them to create exact replicas of their coronation costumes.
Although the other members of royalty had accepted disciples, it was unheard of for members of royalty to create replicas of their coronation costumes for their disciples to wear.
The two young men walking out of the long corridor looked majestic and distant at the same time.
The Moon Empress and Night Leaning Moon circulated their spiritual power and dragged Liu Jie and Lin Yuan to them.
The Moon Empress adjusted Lin Yuan’s pearl sash and said, “I sewed this myself two months ago. It looks like a perfect fit. However, you’re only 19 and will continue to grow. Once you’re taller, I’ll alter it for you.”
When Lin Yuan looked at the Moon Empress, he suddenly felt as though his thick yet light Moonbeam Coronation Costume was unspeakably warm.
A radiant smile appeared on Lin Yuan’s face as he said, “Master, I’ll do my best to grow taller.”
The Moon Empress suddenly felt that the mature Lin Yuan seemed rather childish at the moment.
She savored this innocence and smiled warmly back at him.
The crowd’s jaws dropped when they saw the interaction between Lin Yuan and the Moon Empress. The Moonbeam Coronation Costume that Lin Yuan was wearing was evidence of the Moon Empress’ affection for him.
However, none of them were expecting to see this warm side of the ever-cold Moon Empress.
Everyone was waiting for the Guard Ye Banquet to officially begin.
There was one person confusedly standing behind an empty seat. This person was Zheng Kaiyuan.
The Zheng family was one of the three largest veteran factions in Indigo Azure City and did not have the authority to attend the Guard Ye Banquet.
He was able to attend because his Master Miao Qi had brought him along.
He had wanted to tell Miao Qi about how Miao Zhuo had gotten into trouble.
But now, he realized that it was not just Miao Zhuo who Zuo Ming had chased out, but even Miao Qi was gone from the Guard Ye Banquet.
Zheng Kaiyuan had initially been happy that he had been able to join Lin Yuan’s group.
However, his brain was now consumed by one question—Where is Master!?
