The Quad's Background
Lee Suyu kept nudging at Fei Lin and asking: "Baby sister!"1
Fei Lin frowned: "Call me little sister, not baby sister!"
Suyu nodded: "Lil sis, who are these two?! They were awesome back then!"
Fei Lin shook her head and replied: "The one leading is big sister Kara, she is master's follower, for the one behind her, I do not know of him as I've never seen him before, but since they are together, I guess he's also master's follower."
Suyu nodded her head and asked once more: "Are they strong?"
Fei Lin looked at her and smirked: "There's only a few Divine Origin ranked experts within our world, and she's probably at the pinnacle of it, guess if she's strong then?"
Suyu's heart nearly jumped out of her chest as she asked: "T-that true?"
Fei Lin rolled her eyes and chuckled: "Why would I lie to you?"
"Woah, you really struck gold!" Suyu couldn't help but grow excited, she then asked once more: "Then, your master...?"
Her speech were slightly cut when her words came to this, after all.
Fei Lin smiled: "Yeah, you already met him before."
Suyu was shocked, very shocked: "B-but..."
Fei Lin smiled: "I heard from Matriarch Tanya before, that, big sister Kara was a secluded individual owning a territory, but master subdued her so bad that she became his follower!" Of course, her words only carried 10% of the truth, after all, who doesn't wish to brag about their master? Especially Fei Lin who creates so many random things in her head.
Suyu became speechless: "I... I was rude before... right?"
Fei Lin's smile arched up as she glanced at her big sister: "Of course, now then, our family will be meeting my master, to whom do you think is that thanks to!?"
Suyu was frightened for a bit before excitement covered her eyes: "Mom, Grandma! You heard that right? It's all thanks to me! I should be getting some benefits from it!"
Sadly, opposite to her excitement, both her mother and grandma were feeling conflicted and fear, they heard Fei Lin's words, as cultivators themselves, their senses were quite keen, especially for women like them that use pills and medicines to keep their bodies from aging.
Also, since they said that Yan MEng's background is nothing, it's causing them to be much more nervous, the only rope they are holding in is that neither of the four of them said anything about their background, so as not to sully their master's reputation or use it.
Suyu then asked: "So, little sister, which one is stronger? Lady Leona or your master?"
Fei Lin hearing this for the first time asked: "Who is Lady Leona?"
Suyu then remembered that Fei Lin wasn't invited to the banquet a hundred and fifty years ago, hence, she wouldn't be knowledgeable of her existence.
Suyu then answered: "She's the uncrowned queen of the continent! She's the strongest expert alive in the world and also the guardian of this shire!"
Hearing this, Fei Lin finally knew, but she couldn't answer as she didn't really know what to say, instead, she confidently and blindly spoke: "Of course... it's probably my master..."
Her mother and grandma immediately rebuked: "Do not say such words blindly!"
"This is the territory of the shire, quiet down."
Although they are quite shaken by the two divine origins ranked experts in front of them, they knew who Leona was, she's the undisputed number one of the continents, and her sister is number two! Which power would be able to topple such status? She's quite confident that these two would probably be no match!
Fei Lin chose to ignore them, who doesn't want to brag about their master? You've been doing it your whole life! Bragging about the association, if you want to blame someone, blame yourselves for me inheriting your traits!
The remaining time as they walk remained but silence, soon they arrived at the shire's palace.
It's quite nerve-chilling to those that had never been here before as only the four great factions were only able to enter it.
For the first time, all of them are able to enter it, and it's all thanks to these four's master!
There were disciples and guards here and there, but no one stopped them, not even a question.
'How high is the status of their master to get this much authority inside the shire?' All of them couldn't help but think.
They were brought to the shire's grand hall, and there, their question was answered.
A man sitting on a throne, beside him are two beautiful maidens beyond description, and the two that had guided them had already made their way to the back.
And there, they saw Lady Diana and Lady Leona standing, pouring tea for them.
Mo Xie looked at them and smiled: "So, you four are here."
Immediately, the four knelt down on the ground and bowed: "Master."
Mo Xie nodded his head, making the four stand up.
The rest of the people were still processing, why, Lady Leona, the uncrowned strongest expert within the continent is serving tea to a man, but hearing the other four, they were even more confused.
Their master has the status far surpassing Lady Leona?
Truthfully, the shire's status still surpasses Mo Xie's status but compared to the level of skills, the former couldn't even hold a candle to him, the shire has nothing to lose to befriend such an individual, even on a losing term, Mo Xie's ways far exceeded everyone's expectation.
They are looking at Mo Xie, sitting on his throne like a sovereign as he watched those he governs.
After a while of speechlessness and silence, of course, the Alchemy Association would wake up, Fei Lin's grandmother immediately knelt on the ground and respectfully bowed: "I'm Elder Lee of the Alchemy Association, it's an honor to finally meet you."
Mo Xie looked at her seemingly not interested to answer, she lightly nudged at Shang Ting hinting at her for something.
Shang Ting couldn't help but sigh and roll her eyes as she nodded and spoke: "Please stand up, I heard that you're a family of my husband's disciple?"
Of course, grandma Lee didn't stand up and just looked at Shang Ting: "Yes, it seemed that my granddaughter, Fei Lin managed to catch the grace of the honorable master."
Shang Ting nodded: "Do not worry, my husband will take care of her, also, we would like to know if there was any opposition for my husband's two disciples being betrothed?"
Hearing this, of course, Grandma Lee immediately knew that these people had already known the 'issue' that had happened, she immediately bowed: "Of course there aren't any, if there is, we would personally handle it!"
Mo Xie and the rest couldn't help but chuckle softly, but since it was already solved, Yan Meng didn't want to cause any more ruckus and move on.
Seriously, he wanted to flaunt this glory and all, but he didn't want to as well, after all, real men flaunt what they achieve themselves, not given to them! He is already blessed to have Mo Xie as his master, that's more than enough!
Truthfully, people of the alchemy association were very much against it, after witnessing Fei Lin's beauty and talent, they wished for her to have connections with greater factions.
But to think that they already had one, and they also made troubles with it!
Mo Xie didn't bother about them as he spoke: "The ruins will open within just a few more days, I want the four of you to prepare whatever you all needed before we depart."
"Yes, master!" All four of them immediately bowed.
Mo Xie waved his hand: "You may leave."
All of the people from the Alchemy Association and the four disciples left. Mo Xie felt rather pleased, this is what he had wanted in his previous life, but he couldn't have this life no matter how much he had tried!
He felt excitement inside as he thought: 'The Mo Family, the Mo Clan will rise as the supreme... One day, I know it!'
