”To join the Congregation is not hard at all. Hehe, I've done my homework. Risserd has 20 places reserved, 10 more than other planets. As long as you can beat one of them, Sister Bing, the rest will be easy.” The young boy rested his chin on his hands as he explained with a smile.
Rui Bing thought about it for a moment, saying nothing.
The general, leader of the young boy's bodyguards, said oddly, ”Master Siva should be here by today! Why has he not shown himself?” The legendary Number One of the Tribe was someone he respected a lot, that was why he was beginning to feel nervous.
The young boy rolled his eyes and said, ”Lil' Siva is here already. You just don't know it.”
”Where? Where?” The general looked around him, but could not see the person he admired so much.
”No need to find him, you won't find him anyway. Lil' Siva never likes to come out in the open,” the young boy said this like someone who knew it best.
”Huh, when did you get this?” Fei Si lowered herself and studied the pendant hanging from the young boy's neck. The pendant was made of some unknown material, shining with a dim metallic glimmer like a coin, covered with strange patterns.
”So huge!” The young boy did not answer her as he stared blankly at the exposed point between her open collar.
”So naughty at such a young age! You asked for it!” Fei Si blushed and flicked her finger lightly on his forehead.
Fei Si's action made the bodyguards around them immediately uncomfortable.
The young boy rubbed his forehead and laughed suggestively. ”Sister Fei Si …”
Seeing the young boy's odd expression, Fei Si blushed again. She raised her hand in the act of hitting him and said, ”Humph, guess I'll have to teach you a lesson!”
The young boy quickly ran away, but still laughing weirdly as he left.
”What? You haven't found him?” Huang Jiming sounded disappointed. He had arrived at Guang Hua planet for some time, but there was no news of the Mandate class mech. It was like the mech had vanished into thin air.
”Yes, Master Jiming. We have kept all known Ye Family's base of operations on planet Guang Hua under surveillance, but there's still no sign of the mech. There's also no news on Madam Feng Su yet. We believe that she must have met with a fatal accident.” Xi Feng Tribe's temporary person in charge on Guang Hua reported respectfully. Ever since the Abductor incident, Xi Feng Tribe had removed nearly all their forces from Guang Hua. These days, they only allocated limited resources discreetly on Guang Hua. In searching for Feng Su, the Tribe had used all personnel on the planet, and even reassigned people from nearby planets to assist in the search.
”Hmm, the search for Madam Feng Su must not cease,” Huang Jiming spoke with a low voice. Feng Su may not be enjoying as high a reputation as Huang Jiming himself in the Tribe, but she was very popular. Feng Su was not originally from the Xi Feng Tribe, but she had attained Jie from her own efforts, and was conferred a Phoenix class mech by the Tribe Leader herself. This was an honor that was unprecedented. Huang Jiming admired her for this as well. Of course, the other reason was her otherworldly beauty. Many mech pilots in the Tribe had a crush on her, and Huang Jiming himself could not help but felt curious of the young woman too.
Since the Mandate class mech was nowhere to be found, Huang Jiming felt deflated. He asked, ”So, what's there to do in the free space zone?” This was his first time in the free space zone. Rumour had it that this was where the Tribe originated from, and that was one of the reasons he wanted to come here.
”If Sir would like to sightsee, Risserd would be a good choice. The quadrennial Congregation is about to begin. If Master Jiming is available, it is an event that might be worth your attention. Many experts would gather there. There are no mech pilots, but the combat experts, mentalists and alchemists present are much stronger than our people.”
”Oh, a Congregation?” Huang Jiming's interest was instantly piqued.
The starship landed smoothly.
The only families that owned starships on planet Risserd were the Yan and Huang Families. These two families were the Big Two in the entire free space zone. They also had the longest histories compared to any other tribe in the free pace zone, and enjoyed high reputation. The two families gave birth to many strong members, and they often took up half of planet Risserd's allocated openings for the Congregation.
Guests for the Congregation this year were handled by the Yan Family.
When Ye Chong and his company left the starship, they found that the dock was almost full with other starships. It seemed that many Congregation members from other planets had already arrived. The docking area of the Yan and Huang Families was the largest in the entire free space zone.
