BXBX NOVEL Chapter 220: Who do you think you are? A personal attendant?!
Meanwhile, Cai Yan, who didn\'t show much expression on her face throughout this time, had her eyes glazed at the handsome young man with the dark hair. She found herself lost in her thoughts, her mind drifting into places unknown to her as she observed the handsome youth with the playful smile on his face.
On the other hand, Lei Liwei, the blue-haired young lady from the Lei Clan, had a curious glint in her eyes as she observed the young man from head to toe, paying special attention to his features and stature. After a moment of consideration, she came to the conclusion that he was the perfect man in her eyes.
However, she felt a tinge of disappointment when she noticed the beautiful girls that had arrived alongside him. \'Tch, it looks like he\'s already taken. And it won\'t be surprising if he has more women waiting for him elsewhere as well. It\'s such a shame.\' She thought to herself as she clicked her tongue in regret.
At the same time, Yuan Long\'s expression stiffened as his gaze landed on the handsome young man who had drawn the attention of everyone in the room. He felt a surge of jealousy rise within his chest as he saw how the two beautiful girls who had appeared earlier were looking at him with obvious affection and desire, while he had to struggle just to get Lingyu\'s attention. \'It\'s fine, it\'s fine...
there\'s nothing to worry about. After all, it won\'t be long before Lingyu will fall for me, too! Hahaha... ha...\' he thought to himself with uncertainty as he looked at the handsome young man once more.
As for the Long Lingyu, she looked at the trio in the center of the hall with curiosity before her expression returned to its usual aloof and distant demeanor. She didn\'t react, even when she noticed the attention of others on the handsome young man. Instead, she chose to close her eyes and wait for the trial to begin.
"Asher, we made it in time." Said the girl with fiery red eyes.
The young man in black smiled in response. "What did you think would happen, Scarlet? We were just supposed to teleport to the sect, yet you\'re acting as though we had to climb a mountain and fight off demons along the way!"
She looked at him with a cute pout on her face. "What? It\'s because you continued to steal kisses from us during the entire journey! It almost felt as if we were about to reach the end, only for you to pull us back into your embrace and make out with us again. Leaving us with no choice but to teleport here or risk being late for your disciple selection trials."
"Scarlet is right. It wasn\'t just once or twice, but many times, that you kept kissing us all over. You even went so far as to use the excuse that you had to satisfy your urge to kiss or you wouldn\'t be able to concentrate on the trial later." Cecil joined in with a hint of shyness in her voice, as if she were still embarrassed by the memory.
Upon listening to the girls, Asher let out a laugh, not denying any of their claims. "Hehe, I can\'t help it; you two are just too irresistible. Besides, didn\'t you like it too?" He teased the girls with a mischievous smile, causing their cheeks to turn rosy from embarrassment.
Their voices were low enough to prevent other people from overhearing them, but the expressions of the Elder Kong Yu, Patriarch Li Wang, and Matriarch Cai Xinyi became strange upon hearing their conversation and made their brows twitch.
Kong Yu felt disgusted as he imagined the young man stealing kisses from the two beauties in public. "Tsk! This young man is shameless to the point that it makes me feel nauseous.
If this kind of thing were happening in Heaven\'s Glory Palace, that young man would be punished with a severe beating that would leave him with no strength to ever think about behaving like this again." He frowned with disdain, and a faint glow of light flashed in his eyes, as if he wanted to punish the young man on the spot.
"Elder Harrius, it seems your sect has allowed such a debaucherous young man to participate in the Twilight Mist Sect\'s disciple recruitment trial.
Why not kick him out right away and punish those two inner disciples while sparing all the decent people here the disgrace of being in the same place as him?" He questioned the elder next to him, hoping to persuade him into getting rid of this troublemaker.
The moment Li Wang heard Elder Kong Yu\'s words, he couldn\'t help but scoff in contempt. \'Hmph, as if a righteous-acting hypocrite like you has the authority to talk. From what I\'ve heard, members of Heaven\'s Glory Palace often visit the famous pleasure pavilions to appreciate poetry, enjoy music, and socialize, but their true purpose is to meet with famous courtesans.
Their so-called "social gatherings\'\' were nothing but elaborate excuses for indulging in their carnal desires. How can you condemn this young man when you and your disciples are hypocrites yourselves?\' He thought to himself but refrained from saying it aloud, knowing full well how sensitive they were regarding their image.
Cai Xinyi, on the other hand, remembered how her husband always showered her with affection, making her feel loved and cared for. However, she shook her head and forced those memories into the deepest corner of her heart, as she had decided not to dwell on her past and move forward instead. \'Those days are long gone.
All I can do now is ensure that my daughter never ends up with someone like you, who\'d choose others over his family. After all, those people forgot about your sacrifice and started coveting power for themselves right after getting out of danger. Your sacrifice meant nothing to them.
So, I will make sure that a man like you will never have a chance to even approach her!\' She swore to herself while glancing at her daughter with a proud smile, which she didn\'t notice.
In the meantime, Elder Harrius didn\'t pay any heed to Elder Kong Yu\'s complaints. Instead, he strode towards the three youths in the middle of the hall and smiled as he approached them. "Hahaha... Welcome, Young Master Asher.
I was worried that you wouldn\'t be able to make it in time for the start of the trial, and I was planning to delay it further for your sake while going to the entrance of the sect to wait for your arrival. But it appears I was worrying for nothing, and you arrived just in time. That\'s great!" He laughed with mirth, making everyone around him stare at him with disbelief.
\'Delay the trials of the Twilight Mist Sect because of one person?! Have you gone senile or something? Where\'s the impartiality that you claimed?\' Everyone around them wondered in their hearts as they watched the exchange between Elder Harrius and the young man known as Asher.
Elder Kong Yu\'s expression darkened as he watched Elder Harrius laughing in front of the young man and his two women, but he refrained from speaking any further, knowing full well that his words would fall on deaf ears.
"You are?" Asher looked at Elder Harrius with a puzzled expression on his face, wondering who this person was that seemed to know him.
Seeing this, Elder Harrius\' body trembled with a burst of laughter. "Haha... Forgive me. I guess I was too excited about meeting you and forgot to introduce myself."
"My name is Harrius Brown, and I am a Core Elder of the Twilight Mist Sect. And I\'ll be supervising the disciple selection trials for this year, in case you hadn\'t known. I will be by your side throughout the entirety of these trials. If you need anything, don\'t hesitate to tell me, and I will try my best to accommodate your needs."
The moment he said this, a sour taste filled Elder Kong Yu\'s mouth. He clenched his teeth in displeasure and thought, \'This is preposterous! What kind of treatment is this? Didn\'t you claim that the trials would be held on an impartial basis? Yet here you are, favoring this young man over everyone else by sticking to him like a parasite without showing any dignity. Who do you think you are?
A personal attendant?! And who is this young man to be receiving such treatment?\'
"Oh? I see. Nice to meet you, Elder Harrius. I guess I should thank you for your kindness." Asher laughed and replied to the elder\'s introduction without batting an eye.
"No, no, you don\'t need to thank me. It\'s my pleasure to assist an outstanding young man such as yourself." Elder Harrius said in a jovial manner, trying to gain the young man\'s favor.
Everyone couldn\'t keep their eyes off this situation. \'Is this really happening in front of our eyes? How come this guy gets treated in such an exceptional way while the other disciples have to watch from the sidelines and wait for their turn? What the fuck is wrong with this old bastard?!\'
