Free Web NovelChapter 1187: Chapter 1188: Extremely Envious
"Thank you, senior!" Xiao Tianyu nodded, and the two of them stepped together into the room.
Indeed, as Liu Yun mentioned, three days later, the Qian family sent someone from the Island Lord’s Mansion, directly entering the Liu Mansion to meet Xiao Tianyu.
This person from the Qian family was a rather elegant woman, though slightly aloof, speaking little and merely saying one sentence, asking Xiao Tianyu to follow her, before leaving the Liu Mansion. Xiao Tianyu wasn’t bothered by her aloofness.
The woman walked ahead, and Xiao Tianyu casually followed behind. It’s fair to say they didn’t exchange a single word along the way.
Qian Family Island Lord’s Mansion.
The Qian Family Island Lord’s Mansion is located in the central area of the Deserted Island, where there stands a towering fortress, layered atop one another. The three large characters of Island Lord’s Mansion are carved above the city gate, bold and powerful.
At this moment, the central square of the Island Lord’s Mansion was already crowded with people. Whenever a major event occurred on the Deserted Island, they would invite all influential figures to gather here for discussion.
One could also say that the Island Lord’s Mansion had gathered all prominent families of the Deserted Island, and those who came were leaders of their families, most of whom were at the Celestial Spirit Level.
Liu Yun from the Liu Family was also here, with Liu Qing and Liu Lin standing beside him.
"Master is here!" Liu Qing looked towards the city gate, and his gaze immediately fell on Xiao Tianyu, waving at him. Xiao Tianyu’s gaze swept over and he walked towards the Liu Family.
Regarding the spear technique Xiao Tianyu taught Liu Qing last time, Liu Qing had started to grasp the essence of it after three days.
"How’s the practice of that spear technique going?" Xiao Tianyu’s first question was about this matter, causing Liu Qing to show a slightly embarrassed smile, "I misunderstood you, Master. That spear technique is exactly as my father said, enough for me to benefit for a lifetime!"
"That’s good!" Xiao Tianyu smiled indifferently, while Liu Lin blinked cutely at Xiao Tianyu, "Master, did you seize the opportunity when you walked with the Island Master’s youngest daughter?"
"The Island Master’s youngest daughter?"
"You didn’t know? The youngest daughter is named Qian Qian, and her talent is in no way inferior to her siblings. At the young age of twenty-five, she is already a formidable Celestial Pool Realm expert!"
"Oh!" Xiao Tianyu nodded nonchalantly, no wonder she was so aloof.
"What does ’Oh’ mean?" Liu Lin blinked her pretty eyes, "You wouldn’t want to tell me you didn’t say a single word to her, would you?"
"Is it necessary?"
"Ah, such a good opportunity wasted!" Liu Lin sighed like an adult, feigning regret.
Xiao Tianyu: "..."
"The Island Master is here!" At this moment, someone in the crowd on the square gasped in amazement, and many eyes turned to look at the fortress. Indeed, a strong middle-aged man stood atop the fortress, his deep gaze overlooking the crowd below with quite a presence.
Beside him stood one man and two women, who were the Island Master’s three children, each exuding aloofness. To the people of the Deserted Island, this was normal.
After all, the Island Master’s three children were all exceptionally talented, with the siblings Qianhe and Qian Yue even joining Yihua Palace and Celestial River Hall, the two great Holy Lands for cultivation. Aloofness was inevitable.
Especially Qian Yue, who is not only incredibly talented but also known as the most beautiful woman on the Deserted Island—a dream goddess to all men of the island. But unfortunately, she creates a sense of distance with her aloofness.
The men of the Deserted Island also understand that a heaven’s favorite like Qian Yue is unlikely to belong here.
"Master, isn’t Qian Yue very beautiful!" At this moment, Liu Lin beside Xiao Tianyu made a strange expression, and Xiao Tianyu was slightly annoyed, was it necessary?
Liu Lin showed a knowing smile, "This time, Qian Yue will also accompany us, presenting a big opportunity for Master!"
"I’ve seen many beauties; Qian Yue is just ordinary." Xiao Tianyu said seriously.
Liu Qing looked at Xiao Tianyu with a curious expression, ordinary? "Master, you’re pretending to be high-minded too much, Qian Yue ordinary, if the men of the Deserted Island heard that, their saliva could drown you."
"I know, master can’t have pomegranates, so he says they are sour, I get it!" Liu Lin said with a grin.
"You’ve never ventured outside, or you wouldn’t say that!" Xiao Tianyu said calmly, and he was actually right. Although Qian Yue was extremely beautiful, she seemed average in Xiao Tianyu’s eyes.
The men of the Deserted Island consider Qian Yue a dream goddess because they are limited and haven’t seen the outside world. In the outside world, such heaven’s favorites like Qian Yue are commonplace.
Therefore, different limitations lead to different experiences.
"Master is too sour, I can’t take it, I’m going to wander around!" Liu Qing couldn’t hold it anymore and fled, thinking probably only Master would say Qian Yue is ordinary on this island.
At this moment, the Island Master opened his speech: "The reason for inviting everyone to gather at the Island Lord’s Mansion today, I needn’t elaborate. Now that the Sea King Palace has emerged, this news is no secret to the Deserted Island. We originally had no chance to explore the Sea King Palace, but our Deserted Island has caught the favor of the two great Holy Lands, Yihua Palace and Celestial River Hall, thus allotting several dozen spots to our island. Hence, our island will send people to explore, anyone above the Celestial Spirit Realm can qualify through the examination, and go along with the strong from Yihua Palace and Celestial River Hall!"
"This time, there will be people from both Holy Lands coming!"
The Island Master’s powerful voice echoed in everyone’s ears, causing their hearts to stir. Celestial Spirit Realm experts must pass exams to qualify to explore the Sea King Palace. Everyone knows this is all thanks to the talents of Qian Yue and Qianhe, allowing the Deserted Island a few spots.
However, shortly after the Island Master finished speaking, a commotion arose from below.
"Master, it seems to be my brother!" Liu Lin said to Xiao Tianyu, "My brother has run into Qian Cheng again, that Qian Cheng is so annoying. Is he not satisfied with bullying my brother last time?" freēwebnovel.com
Upon finishing, Liu Lin was about to head forward but was held back by Xiao Tianyu, "Don’t panic, your brother is no longer the same as three days ago. Handling a mere Qian Cheng shouldn’t be too problematic!"
Xiao Tianyu’s sharp eyes could discern at a glance that the current Qian Cheng was not a match for Liu Qing, just the right time for Liu Qing to wash away the humiliation of three days ago.
At this moment, that area where Qian Cheng stood, his gaze fell on Liu Qing revealing a mocking smile, "What’s up, not seen for three days and you’re still a turtle hiding in its shell? I thought worshipping a master would show immense progress, but looks like as I said three days ago, a useless apprentice can’t expect much from his master!"
This day’s events are quite calm, all for setting up tomorrow’s twists!
