Chapter 924 - : The Final Arrangement! (1/2)
Chapter 924: The Final Arrangement!
The Ling brothers arranged everything according to Bai Xiaofei’s plan but tried not to make it obvious.
However, as long as Shadow Death wasn’t stupid, they could see right away what Ethereal was doing, and admittedly, the feeling of being toyed with was very irritating.
The first thing Ling Yue did was gather the five godsmiths, saying it was to put on a show for the envoys.
If that was really the case, the godsmiths would never agree to it as they were puppetsmiths and not actors. However, none of them refused because they could guess Ling Yue’s real purpose, and rejecting would mean indirectly admitting that he or she was the one behind the human puppets.
Most of the envoys naturally couldn’t see this as they were outsiders and only came to create trouble for Ethereal. They found it an interesting experience to be able to appreciate a godsmith’s work, let alone all five of them together. Who would dare to even think about this before?
As a result, with the absence of objections from all parties, a special ‘performance’ was officially held at the public forging room of the Puppetsmith Holy Mountain.
Besides the envoys from all over the world, there were also many puppetsmiths from the very mountain itself as this was also a rare opportunity to learn. Due to this, the five godsmiths needed to really come up with something that could convince everyone.
In addition to the spectators, the group with the most number present was the Ethereal troops: Three Imperial Guard elite brigades, five garrison teams, the private armies of the four great clans, and the four princes, plus the entirety of the personal guards of the emperor!
The so-called performance had gathered the imperial city’s top powers, and Ling Yue’s reason was that he wanted to ensure the safety of all the envoys.
Excuses, excuses…
“My utmost gratitude to our godsmiths for gracing us with their presence. The theme of today is proposition forging. The godsmiths will draw from ten propositions, each of which is more than enough to showcase their ability. Let this be an eye-opening experience for us all!”
Ling Yue personally acted as the host. Despite their ages and status, the five godsmiths still needed to give the emperor face. Under the gaze of all and sundry, they stepped forward and drew their topics, and after reading their slip, they all frowned.
Because of nothing else, but that the topics were a little too abstract!
Pinocchio: Wash silk.
Nanmo Sheng: Moon chant.
Thousand Flames: Star ocean.
Heartless Snow: Reedpipe drop.
Blossom: Boundless.
