Chapter 786 Wind Pavilion (1/2)

Zhou Yuan left the golden palace hall and saw Yi Qiushui and Yi Yan anxiously waiting outside. The two immediately darted over.

“Zhou Yuan, what happened? Is Lady Chi Jing really going to let you become the deputy pavilion master of the Wind Pavilion?” Yi Qiushui asked hurriedly when she saw Zhou Yuan come out.

Yi Yan caressed his beard and stubbornly didn’t show too much eagerness, but his eyes fixed on Zhou Yuan’s were enough to show how restless he was.

“Lady Chi Jing has already said it, so how can she take it back?” Zhou Yuan laughed.

Yi Qiushui’s eyes went wide. “Then you really will become a deputy pavilion master of the Wind Pavilion?”

She found this hard to believe. In the Tianyuan Region, the position of deputy pavilion master of Wind Pavilion was more important than the Prefecture Lord of Xiaoxuan Prefecture. And when Zhou Yuan really becomes the pavilion master, his status would be equivalent to her grandfather, who was an elder in the Elder Committee.

But Yi Yan was an expert of the Nascent Source stage! It took him a lot of work and effort in the Tianyuan Region to climb to that position, but Zhou Yuan—it was his first time in the Tianyuan Utopia!

Even Yi Yan couldn’t help pulling out two strands of hair from his beard. He uttered, “Why does she value you so much?”

Zhou Yuan revealed a bewildered expression and shook his head.

Yi Yan thought for a while and said, “It seems as I thought, master Chi Jing can’t stand the Heavenly Spirit Sect, so she is using you to counter them.

“But, kid, your luck is really good. You must remember in your heart the favour Lady Chi Jing has done for you.”

Yi Yan sighed. He had hoped to fight for the position of deputy commander in the Wind Pavilion for Zhou Yuan, but who would have thought that Zhou Yuan would instead become the deputy pavilion master!

This jump was incredibly large.

Zhou Yuan nodded with a smile. “Lady Chi Jing has asked for you to take me to Wind Pavilion tomorrow to start my post.”

“Of course,” Yi Yan said.

A slightly bitter look crossed Yi Qiushui’s beautiful face. “That means you’ll become my superior.”

“Qiushui, you’re also going to the Wind Pavilion?” Zhou Yuan asked in puzzlement.

Yi Yan smiled and said, “The four pavilions are the dream places of all the youngsters in the Tianyuan Region. Qiushui is no exception. But because she is the lord of Xiaoxuan Prefecture, she does not have a position in Wind Pavilion and is simply just training there.

“As for the affairs of Xiaoxuan Prefecture, the Yi clan will help take care of them.”

“Not only me, Liu Zhixuan will also enter the Wind Pavilion. I wonder what his reaction would be when he sees you’re the deputy pavilion master of Wind Pavilion,” Yi Qiushui laughed.

Zhou Yuan nodded. It was a good thing to have some people he knew there.

Yi Yan smiled. “Zhou Yuan, you don’t have a place to stay, do you? You can stay at mine for now.”

Yi Yan’s att.i.tude towards Zhou Yuan had visibly become friendlier because he knew very well that with Zhou Yuan becoming a deputy pavilion master of the Wind Pavilion, Zhou Yuan was no longer the former lonely person without any background.

Zhou Yuan could be said to be in the middle cla.s.s of the Tianyuan Region. In the future, he might even rise another level and could be described as a new star.

So it was understandable that Yi Yan wanted to pull Zhou Yuan to his side.

“Then thank you, elder Yi Yan.”

Zhou Yuan smiled and expressed his grat.i.tude.

Seeing that Zhou Yuan hadn’t become arrogant even after he struck up a relations.h.i.+p with Chi Jing, Yi Yan couldn’t help but like him even more.

......

The next day.

Outside the Yi clan’s garden.

The carriage drawn by the white lion soared into the sky, heading southwest of the Tianyuan Utopia with lightning speed.

After an hour, the speed of the white lion carriage slowed down, and Zhou Yuan peered through the gap between the curtains to see a floating island appearing in the sky. The island was a bit smaller than those he had seen before, but around the island were countless raging storms.

The howl of violent wind could be clearly heard even from a distance away.

Above the sky, there were constantly streams of light landing onto the island surrounded by storm.

“The four pavilions, Wind, Forest, Fire and Mountain, each occupy an island. This is where the Wind Pavilion lies, the Wind Island,” Yi Yan’s voice sounded from behind.
