Chapter 1498: Brightness Emperor Palace (2/2)
After all, a king of supreme godhead disciple represented a lot of things. Moreover, Huang Xiaolong had shown amazing talent and battle power, therefore, it was hard for these Emperor Palaces’ disciples not to have heard about Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong wasn’t surprised watching Lan Zhifeng’s surprise expression. He nodded and confirmed, “I am Huang Xiaolong.”
How could he deny his identity in this situation?
“I see, so it’s Brother Huang. I didn’t know your identity earlier, so please excuse my manners.” Lan Zhifeng cupped his fists at Huang Xiaolong with a smiling face, and his tone and attitude were completely contrary from moments ago.
Even if Huang Xiaolong was an ordinary disciple, just due to the fact that he had a king of supreme godhead was sufficient reason for Lan Zhifeng to treat him with courtesy.
As Lan Zhifeng had made a proper excuse, it would make Huang Xiaolong look like a narrow-minded person if he showed dissatisfaction towards Lan Zhifeng for his earlier words. Thus Huang Xiaolong cupped his fists and returned Lan Zhifeng’s greeting, “It’s alright, Young Lord Lan is polite.”
At this time, several figures stepped out from the inner hall. One of them was the old man who was always by Bei Xiaomei’s side, protecting her.
When Bei Xiaomei had stayed for a month at the Fortune Emperor Palace, Huang Xiaolong had learned that Bei Xiaomei called this old man Elder Fu.
When Elder Fu came out, he casually looked around the lobby, and was inwardly surprised when he saw Lan Zhifeng standing together with Huang Xiaolong. Without missing a beat, he approached them.
“Elder Fu!”
The various Emperor Palaces’ young lords, Emperors’ Disciples, and other disciples greeted him respectfully.
Even the Brightness Emperor Palace’s Young Lord Lan Zhifeng respectfully greeted Elder Fu. One could see Elder Fu’s status was sufficiently high within the Silver Fox Commerce. Otherwise, Lan Zhifeng wouldn’t have shown such respect.
“I see Young Warrior Huang has come.” Elder Fu stopped in front of Huang Xiaolong and took the initiative to greet first. A smile softened his usually inexpressive face.
“Elder Fu.” Huang Xiaolong greeted him respectfully. Fang Xuanxuan, Peng Xiao, and the others followed him and greeted Elder Fu with courtesy.
Elder Fu nodded at Huang Xiaolong, then said to Fang Xuanxuan, “Miss Fang has come as well.”
“Young Warrior Huang, our Second Miss has been nagging and asking about when you were going to come visit her. She was asking why you haven’t yet visited her, as she was expecting for you to be here more than once, since it’s been a decade since your last meeting. If you wouldn’t have shown up soon, our Second Miss would probably have run to the Fortune Emperor Palace.” Elder Fu complained bitterly to Huang Xiaolong.
When the surrounding Emperor Palaces’ male disciples heard Elder Fu’s words, all of them looked enviously at Huang Xiaolong. What fortune and luck to be able to attract the attention of the Silver Fox Commerce’s Second Miss!
However, Huang Xiaolong also received four deathly gazes from Li Lu, Yao Chi, Peng Xiao, and Fang Xuanxuan, making him feel awkward. Huang Xiaolong tried to cover his embarrassment with a short laugh and said, “I have been in seclusion for over a decade, and exited not long ago. Right after that, I made my way here.”
“Our Second Miss is in the back hall. She will be very happy to know that you are here. If Young Warrior Huang has no other matters, why don’t you go say hello to our Second Miss?” Elder Fu asked Huang Xiaolong.
“Sure.” Huang Xiaolong accepted his invitation.
Under Lan Zhifeng and others’ envious gazes, Elder Fu led Huang Xiaolong, Li Lu, Fang Xuanxuan, and the rest of his group into the inner hall.
After Huang Xiaolong’s figure disappeared into the inner hall, the Nine Dragons Emperor Palace’s Fire Dragon Emperor’s Disciple Chen Yuan couldn’t resist from commenting out loud, “This Huang Xiaolong’s got quite the luck with the ladies!”
Lan Zhifeng suddenly asked Chen Yuan, “Isn’t your younger brother Chen Zhao chasing Fang Xuanxuan? But Fang Xuanxuan is now traveling around with Huang Xiaolong, and judging from what I saw, she’s quite close to Huang Xiaolong.”
The Nine Dragons Emperor Palace’s Fire Dragon Emperor’s Disciple Chen Yuan frowned at Lan Zhifeng’s words but refuted, “Huang Xiaolong is Zhao Lei’s disciple. Zhao Lei and Fang Gan are good brothers, not to mention, Huang Xiaolong saved Fang Xuanxuan’s life. It’s nothing strange that she’s close to Huang Xiaolong.”
“Oh really?’ Lan Zhifeng smiled mysteriously, and let go of the topic.
On the other side, Elder Fu led Huang Xiaolong and his group to the inner hall where they saw Bei Xiaomei. Bei Xiaomei was biting unenthusiastically into a spiritual fruit. When she saw Elder Fu, and Huang Xiaolong walking behind him, her face lit up as she shouted ecstatically, “Uncle!”
