“Look, there’s someone standing beside that Saint Robe figure!”
“Just by his appearance, he’s clearly no ordinary person.”
“Are you blind? Don’t you recognize him? That’s the famous Saint Cloak Spiritist, Master Longxuan!”
“What? It’s really Master Longxuan?”
“The Master Longxuan from Ancestral Martial Dragon City?!”
Master Longxuan’s appearance immediately captured everyone’s attention.
But soon, a question arose.
Why was Master Longxuan here?
Could he know the person who obtained the Nine Dragons Saint Robe?
“Longxuan, this isn’t exactly fair play,” a secret transmission sounded in Master Longxuan’s ears—it was Master Liangqiu.
“Master, how can you say that about something like this? If you’re not afraid of rejection, feel free to show yourself too,” Master Longxuan replied via secret transmission.
Hearing this, Master Liangqiu frowned, he understood what Master Longxuan intended and what he meant.
Master Longxuan wanted to publicly propose taking Chu Feng as his disciple.
But there was the risk of Chu Feng refusing.
For figures of their renown, being rejected in front of such a crowd wouldn’t be a matter of pride—it’d be downright embarrassing.
Especially for someone like Master Liangqiu.
Over the years, countless people had begged to become his disciple, only to be turned away.
It had always been him rejecting others, never the other way around.
He’d never even actively offered to take someone as a disciple.
Well, there was one exception—Chu Xuanyuan.
But back then, when Master Liangqiu proposed taking Chu Xuanyuan as a disciple, it was a private conversation between the two.
Though he was rejected, Chu Xuanyuan never seemed to mention it to anyone, so the outside world remained oblivious.
Thus, in the eyes of others, Master Liangqiu had never been refused, nor could anyone imagine someone rejecting him.
But if today, in this moment, he offered to take Chu Feng as a disciple and was turned down?
Everything would change.
Having climbed step by step to his current fame and status, claiming he didn’t care about face would be a lie.
“Young friend Chu Feng, you’ve appeared here but won’t speak or respond to me, are you trying to stir a commotion while keeping your identity hidden?”
“Honestly, I don’t care what you’re up to, nor do you need to explain it to me.”
“I’m here today for something else, it might be a bit forward, but my intentions are sincere.”
“I’m not one for beating around the bush, so I won’t today either, what I want to say is… uh… it’s still a bit bold, I hope you’re mentally prepared, because this isn’t a small matter for either of us.”
After approaching Chu Feng, Master Longxuan continued communicating via secret transmission.
Master Liangqiu cared about face, but didn’t he as well?
So, he wanted to discuss this privately with Chu Feng first.
If Chu Feng agreed, it’d be a win-win—he could have the crowd bear witness as he formally took Chu Feng as his disciple.
If refused, he’d just leave, no one would know, and he’d avoid any awkwardness.
“This aura?!”
Suddenly, Master Longxuan’s expression shifted, he quickly turned to look, only to see a figure appear beside him—it was Master Liangqiu.
After some hesitation, Master Liangqiu had made his choice.
He chose Chu Feng over his pride.
“I’m not seeing things, am I? That looks like Master Liangqiu.”
“No mistake, that’s definitely our Ancestral Martial Star Region’s greatest Spiritist, Master Liangqiu!”
“First Master Longxuan, now Master Liangqiu—what’s going on?”
Master Liangqiu’s arrival sent the already excited crowd into a frenzy.
Compared to Master Longxuan, Master Liangqiu’s status, influence, and fame were on another level entirely.
This was a pinnacle figure of the Ancestral Martial Star Region, someone rarely seen, a legend most would never encounter in their lifetime.
Even without the Nine Dragons Saint Robe being claimed, the simultaneous appearance of Master Longxuan and Master Liangqiu was already monumental, enough to thrill the masses.
And now, both stood before the figure clad in the Nine Dragons Saint Robe.
Did they know each other?
What would happen next?
These were the questions burning in everyone’s minds, the anticipation palpable.
But while the crowd buzzed with excitement, Master Longxuan grew anxious.
He’d stepped forward in this setting as a gamble, betting that Master Liangqiu wouldn’t dare risk proposing to take Chu Feng as a disciple in front of so many people.
From what he knew of Master Liangqiu, the man wouldn’t take that chance.
But Master Liangqiu’s presence made him realize—he might’ve miscalculated.
“Master Liangqiu, you…”
Master Longxuan tried to speak to him.
But Master Liangqiu didn’t even glance at him, instead addressing Chu Feng directly:
“Young friend, I have something I’d like to discuss with you.”
Young friend?
Master Liangqiu called the figure in the Nine Dragons Saint Robe “young friend”—did that mean this person was of a lower generation?
Could the one who broke the array be a young junior?
They must know each other, regardless of who this array-breaker was, Master Liangqiu was acquainted with them.
So who was this person who shattered the Boundary Spirit Immortal King’s array?
What did Master Liangqiu want to discuss?
Hearing his words, a flurry of questions surged through the crowd’s minds, their excitement intensifying.
But Master Longxuan panicked, because unlike the onlookers, he knew exactly what Master Liangqiu was about to say.
So, he cut in first: “Young friend, would you be my disciple?”
“What???”
“This!!!”
Master Longxuan’s words stunned the crowd, they’d speculated about what might happen, but no one expected him to propose taking this person as a disciple.
“Young friend, I… also wish to take you as my disciple,” Master Liangqiu’s voice followed.
“My heavens, I didn’t hear that wrong, did I? Even Master Liangqiu…”
No doubt about it, when Master Liangqiu spoke, the crowd’s shock hit its peak.
Even the older generation gaped in astonishment.
This was the illustrious, untouchable Master Liangqiu, and he was actively requesting to take someone as a disciple?!
Looking closer, both Master Longxuan and Master Liangqiu gazed at the figure in the Nine Dragons Saint Robe with genuine sincerity.
This was no joke—these two titans were serious.
“Who is this array-breaker?!”
That was the question on everyone’s mind at that moment!!!
