Chapter 1576: Young Island Master (2/2)

Changyang Ba could only clasp his fist toward Shangguan Aojian, Xiao Qian, and Xiao Yue since he was in a helpless situation. He apologetically said, “I really must apologize for Xu’er’s misbehavior. It’s all because we haven’t raised him correctly. If you have been offended, please forgive us. Oh right, may I ask where you are from? Once the ceremony is over, I will definitely bring Ke’er with me to personally apologize.”

“You are too polite, patriarch. I am Xiao Qian from Three Saint Island, and I greet the patriarch!”

“I am Xiao Yue from Three Saint Island. I greet the patriarch!”

Xiao Qian and Xiao Yue clasped their hands to Changyang Ba at the same time. They were very polite.

“I am Shangguan Aojian from Three Saint Island. I greet the patriarch!” Shangguan Aojian also clasped his hands at Changyang Ba and deeply bowed. He did not bow because Changyang Ba was the patriarch of the Changyang Ba, but rather because he was his grandfather.

“Three Saint Island. They’re actually from Three Saint Island…”

“I’ve heard of Xiao Qian and Xiao Yue. Aren’t they the second and third island mistresses? I never thought that the two island mistresses would actually come here. Their statuses are just impressive…”

“It’s said that the Heavenly Enchantress is the main island mistress while the other two island mistresses are her disciple. Oh my god, the two women are actually a sovereign’s disciples. No wonder they don’t fear the Changyang clan…”

“I never thought that even the disciples of a sovereign would come and attend the ceremony…”

When Xiao Qian and Xiao Yue’s identities were revealed, there was quite an uproar in the clan. At that moment, the gazes everyone sent the three of them changed. They became filled with envy.

All the experts from the four races had learned about Three Saint Island long ago since their island mistress was an Origin realm sovereign. She had even controlled five Origin realm experts from the foreign world using her zither during the battle, shocking both friends and foes alike.

In the eyes of the Sainthood experts, the Origin realm would allow one to reign supreme in the world, something almost unattainable. Yet, the Heavenly Enchantress was able to control five of them. It was just too terrifying.

Changyang Ba became surprised before chuckling aloud. He walked off the platform with Changyang Ke and personally went up to receive them. He smiled, “So it’s the island mistresses. I’ve failed to welcome you from afar, so please forgive me. Speaking of which, Three Saint Island and the Changyang clan are familiar with one another. I’ve heard Xiang’er mention Three Saint Island many times in the past, and he also seems to have stayed there for some time as well.”

“Hehehe, the patriarch is correct. Master Jian Chen has indeed stayed at our island for quite some time in the past.” Xiao Qian giggled and glanced at Shangguan Aojian with a profound meaning. She then pointed at Shangguan Aojian and said, “Patriarch, this is our young master!”

“Young master!” Changyang Ba was surprised once again. He could not help but properly look at Shangguan Aojian. He felt something strange from that glance. He suddenly found the young man more pleasing to the eye the longer he looked at him and took a liking of him.

The surrounding guests were all surprised when they learned that Shangguan Aojian was the young island master. This was quite the status, no lesser than Changyang Xu’s status in the Changyang clan. He was probably the Heavenly Enchantress’ successor.

Everyone came to an understanding. With Shangguan Aojian’s status as the young island master, claiming to be Changyang Xu’s elder brother was a matter of fact. After all, his status was no lesser than Changyang Xu’s and he was clearly a few years older than Changyang Xu.

“Hmph, being the young island master is only holding an empty name. If it were not for my grandfather earlier, you would have been injured by me,” said Changyang Xu. He clearly did not treat Shangguan Aojian as a big deal at all.

Changyang Ba’s face suddenly sank. When he was about to reproach Changyang Xu, Shangguan Aojian spoke instead. “Brother, you can’t be too proud as a person, let alone look down on everyone. You need to know that there is always someone better than you out there. You may have achieved your current accomplishments, but you need to bear in mind that the reasons you have achieved them all came from your uncle.”

“Hmph, Shangguan Aojian, even if you are the young island master, you are not greater than me. Of course I know that there is always someone better than me out there. In my generation, I am that person. Moreover, you couldn’t even take a strike from my sword as a young island master. In this world, those who are weak will never have the right to speak.” Changyang Xu was extremely arrogant. He firmly believed that if his attack had not been stopped by his grandfather, the young island master before him would have been injured.

Shangguan Aojian gently sighed and said, “Brother, you’re far too arrogant. If you don’t change your mindset, you’ll doom yourself sooner or later. Even the clan might end up dragged into your mess. As your elder brother, I have to teach you a proper lesson so that you will understand that you can never claim to be the best. Attack me. I won’t move. If you can injure me even in the slightest, it’ll be my loss.”
