Chapter 1472: The Myriad Treasure Palace (1/2)
Huang Xiaolong’s thoughts churned listening to these disciples’ conversations. The Silver Fox Commerce’s Second Miss? Doesn’t that mean, Bei Xiaomei will be attending the apprenticeship ceremony in a month?
Remembering Bei Xiaomei’s cute and innocent personality, Huang Xiaolong smiled subconsciously.
More than twenty years had passed since he had left the Royal Buddha Great Worlds, and that was also the same amount of time since he had seen Bei Xiaomei.
Thinking of their meeting, Huang Xiaolong felt as if the time at the auction house had just happened yesterday.
“Just now, you were saying that the Silver Fox Commerce’s Second Miss would be attending the apprenticeship ceremony, is that right?” Huang Xiaolong appeared in front of the conversing disciples in a flicker and asked them.
The disciples look at Huang Xiaolong, and when they noticed the pattern on Huang Xiaolong’s robe, all of them quickly stood at attention and saluted, “Greetings Grand Martial Uncle!”
Personal disciples of Elders and above had different patterned robes.
As the Chief of Hall Masters Zhao Lei’s personal disciple, Huang Xiaolong’s brocade robe had an eye-catching lightning symbol. Thus, these disciples were able to determine Huang Xiaolong’s identity at a glance.
Huang Xiaolong’s Senior Brother was Chen Hao, and being in the same ‘generation’ as Grand Elder Chen Hao, it was only proper for these disciples to call Huang Xiaolong as Grand Martial Uncle.
Huang Xiaolong nodded at them and said, “No need to stand on ceremony.”
Only then did the disciples straighten their backs.
“Replying to Grand Martial Uncle, from the news that we have heard, the Silver Fox Commerce’s Second Miss will attend the ceremony with the Silver Fox Commerce’s masters, but we are not certain if the news is true.” One of the disciples respectfully replied to Huang Xiaolong’s question.
Obviously, this disciple was the group leader amongst them.
“What about the Nine Dragons Emperor Palace, Solitude Emperor Palace, Thousand Venoms Emperor Palace, and Flying Blossoms Emperor Palace? Are people coming from these Emperor Palaces as well?” Huang Xiaolong asked casually.
The same disciple replied, “They are, Grand Martial Uncle. The Nine Dragons Emperor Palace, Solitude Emperor Palace, Thousand Venoms Emperor Palace, and Flying Blossoms Emperor Palace are quite close to our Fortune Emperor Palace, hence, they will certainly send people to attend the ceremony; it’s just that we don’t know if their Emperors will come in person or not, but the four Emperor Palaces’ Emperor’s Disciple would come.”
“Other than these four Emperor Palaces, there are also people coming from the Royal Buddha Emperor Palace, Ice Phoenix Emperor Palace, Eternal Emperor Palace, Dark Spirit Emperor Palace, Poison Emperor Palace, the Medicine Emperor Palace...” The disciple went on to name more than fifty Emperor Palace forces.
Some of these Emperor Palaces ranked in the top one hundred, and quite a few ranked in the top three hundred.
Huang Xiaolong was inwardly astonished. Even though Senior Brother Chen Hao had informed him there would be a lot of Emperor Palace forces attending the grand apprenticeship ceremony, it had not occurred to him that the list would be so long.
The fifty plus Emperor Palaces mentioned by the disciple weren’t the only ones attending the Fortune Emperor Palace’s apprenticeship ceremony.
According to the disciple, there were three to four hundred Emperor Palace forces’ representatives attending the ceremony.
Masters from three to four hundred Emperor Palace forces!
Just imagining the scene was scary enough.
It was probably enough to attack the Heavenly Court with just all these Emperor Palace forces gathered together, isn’t it?
“Tell me about the Dark Spirit Emperor Palace and Eternal Emperor Palace.” As an afterthought, Huang Xiaolong told the disciple.
He didn’t know that there were the Eternal Emperor Palace and the Dark Spirit Emperor Palace in the Divine World.
In that case, were the Vientiane World’s Wangu Clan and Dark Elf Tribe the Eternal Emperor Palace and Dark Spirit Emperor Palace’s branches respectively?
The disciple complied respectfully then reported to Huang Xiaolong everything he knew about the two Emperor Palaces.
However, the disciple was only a Fortune Emperor Palace’s inner sect disciple, thus his knowledge about the two Emperor Palaces was limited. For more information, Huang Xiaolong would have to go look for his Senior Brother Chen Hao.
Or perhaps, he could go to the Fortune Emperor Palace’s library? The Fortune Emperor Palace’s library consisted of twenty floors full of vast information.
Huang Xiaolong immediately acted on his thought. With his identity, he had the permission to access the first twelve floors of the library.
