Chapter 26
Lan Xuerou was pretty excited by this arrangement because she really wanted to talk to him, she wanted to ask him, if he could help her to cure her father's poison. She didn't know how to approach him, she thought 'Should I approach him as the Princess of Blue Wind Empire and ask him or do I go as an ordinary cla.s.smate of his and ask for his help. What should I do?'
While she was thinking this, Ryusuke was thinking 'Okay, I have managed to make her interested in me. Now, she should seek me out or ask me something about it after the banquet.' While he was thinking this, Yuanba was thinking 'So, brother-in-law is so powerful and he came here for me. He mentioned me because he must want others to know his and mine relation so that others won't speak bad to me again.'
At this time, the lead actor of the event, the newly appointed Palace Chief of New Moon Profound Palace, Qin Wuyou, had finally arrived. Qin Wuyou looked to be about sixty in age; his face held an expression of a gentle and unfl.u.s.tered calm, and a deep wisdom could be seen in his clear eyes.
He emanated an extraordinary aura. Qin Wuyou was originally one of the elders of the Imperial Capital's Profound Palace; he was specially a.s.signed to New Moon Profound Palace as the Palace Chief, and his true strength was deep and unfathomable. But due to the revelation of Ryusuke's ident.i.ty earlier, n.o.body really gave him as much respect that he should have gotten otherwise.
Qin Wuyou had already arrived in New Moon Profound Palace a month ago, and today was merely the official day of the newly-appointee's banquet. In this short month, he had already bowled over Each elder and Disciple, and received their deepest respects.
Soon, the Burning Heaven Clan Branch, Cloudy Sun Sect, Iron Spear Clan, Profound Heart Sect, Seven Deadly Sword Pavilion, Stormy Profound Palace and the Xiao Sect Branch members arrived almost at the same time as if they had it previously planned.
The elders of all the Sects came forward and congratulated Qin Wuyou, the ones who seemed sincere were the elders of Iron Spear Clan while the others were like they were just doing a formality. Ryusuke didn't find it strange because he knew that the other sects had many resources and
At this point, all the guests who were invited had already arrived. Xiao Sect's Branch Sect and Burning Heaven Clan's Outer Sect were naturally seated near the top. They were followed by the other five major sects, and was once again followed by New Moon City's Governor Murong Hang's seat; however, he was not even a little bit dissatisfied about the arrangement.
The Murong family may stir up any amount of trouble they wanted in New Moon City, but that was only in the face of the little common sects. Even if he was New Moon City's governor, in the presence of these seven major sects, he had to obediently tuck his tail between his legs and did not dare to even slightly offend them.
As for those medium-sized clans who were invited, they even more so, trembled in fear and trepidation; very rarely did they see a gathering of the seven major sects, let alone dare to offend any one of them.
Ryusuke didn't give them a single glance while he continued to talk with Yuanba about the coming disciples. Soon, a youngster who was called out from the Profound Heart Sect appeared to be sixteen or seventeen years old, and he was actually the youngest of the lot of Profound Heart Sect disciples that came; he had a thin, but well-toned body.
With a rush of energy, he leapt high from his seat onto the centre of the hall. With both hands cupped behind his back, he then swept his defiant eyes towards the seated New Moon Profound Palace disciples, "This one is Profound Heart Sect's useless disciple Xuan Yu, sixteen years old. Who will come up and advise me?"
Once Xuan Yu entered stepped onto the stage, all the elders from New Moon Profound Palace became silent.… This Xuan Yu was only really only sixteen years old, but he was already at Second level of the Nascent Soul Realm! Being Elders, of course they knew of their own internal strength; in New Moon Profound Palace, the most powerful of the sixteen-year olds were only at the first level of the Nascent Profound Realm. Moreover, these disciples from the seven sects had their own sect's profound arts.
Even if they were of the same rank, New Moon Profound Palace's disciples basically had no chance of winning at all; therefore, don't even bother to mention going against one with a lower rank.
What was even harder to accept, was that this Xuan Yu, amongst all the seven sects' disciples here today, would only be considered mid-tier and absolutely not their top-tier.
Ryusuke snorted as he looked at Xuan Yu and said, "If you are a useless disciple, why the h.e.l.l are you challenging someone and wasting our time. Go ask pointers from your seniors or are they too useless to teach anything to you?"
All the New Moon Profound Palace students laughed as they heard his words and relaxed as they remembered his ident.i.ty and his power while the ones from the Profound Hearts Sect were angered but they couldn't retort against him. What were they supposed to say, that it is just the way of speaking like this?
Xuan Yu was really angered and pointed towards Ryusuke and said, "I will fight against you. How dare you try to embarra.s.s me in front of everyone?" Ryusuke rolled his eyes as he said, "Trash like you don't even have the qualifications to touch me. When you can beat Yun Che, I will think about having a fight against you?"
Every person's eyes were now on Yun Che, who cursed under his breath as he thought 'You b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you are forcing me to fight here. I can't lose face here right now with Lan Xuerou watching me right now. Looks like I will have to fight."
He thought and asked Jasmine, "Hey Jasmine, what is the chance that I will win the fight?" She was silent for some moments and then said, "You should be able to win with Star G.o.d's broken Shadow but remember, don't drag the fight and finish it shortly."
He nodded as he knew that his Star G.o.d's Broken Shadow was only at the First level and he could only form 1 Afterimage. He also didn't have the stamina to use it for a long time. He went forward and stood in front of him as he saw Xuan Yu sneer at him and say, "You should just give up while you have the chance. You are just in 1st Stage of Nascent Soul Realm, you don't stand a chance against me."
Yun Che smiled and didn't say anything as he said, "Let's stop the nonsense and start the fight." Xuan Yu entered in a fighting stance as his Fist started glowing Purple. Ryusuke wasn't interested in such a trashy technique and didn't even observe his punch which according to the people beside him was the strongest technique of the Profound Heart Sect.
What, Ryusuke was more interested was in the Star G.o.d's Broken Shadow Technique of Jasmine. He observed Yun Che's movements with his Sharingan so that he could copy the Star G.o.d's Broken Shadow. He wanted to compare it with his own Shuns.h.i.+n.
