Chapter 665
A few moments later, one of the two flower entertainers from earlier walked into the gazebo. She arrived before the table and dropped the violin case hugged against her chest. Once she left, Phillipe rose to his feet. "Who will be the first challenger?" Silence. Phillipe furrowed his brow. "How about you all come at me at me at once?" The expressions of the young scions present immediately went frosty. Individually hailing from prestigious backgrounds, all who were present were lauded as prodigies right from their childhood. As such, Phillipe's arrogant comment dealt a massive blow to their ego. "It will be an honor to spar with the second young master." one of the scions rose to his feet. Unlike a majority of his peers who were present, the young Demiurge boasted of a chubby frame that towered over six feet high. A few stubs of beards could be spotted across his jaws while his scalp was completely bald. Phillipe scanned his opponent like a hawk observing its prey. A smirk s

"I'll accept challenges from anybody in this establishment. As long as one of my challengers wins, I'll forgive the offense on behalf of House Le Roy." A tensed silence immediately enveloped the interior of Griffin Pavilion. Tacitly maintaining this silence, the scions who were present all exchanged heavy glances. From where he sat, Tristan battled hard to conceal his smile. He let out a small laugh. "A duel?" "Hm?" Phillipe's gaze shifted towards Tristan's direction. Annoyance flashed in his eyes. "Hm? do you think your demand is better?" "Of course not." Tristan responded. His gaze briefly shifted towards the direction of the scions. "However, I doubt any of them would dare challenge you." "Oh?" Phillipe's gaze swept over the scions. Briefly meeting his gaze, they all collectively averted their eyes towards the side. Satisfaction swelled up within Phillipe. However, he fiegned ignorance. "Why won't they challenge me?" Tristan's brows leapt in amusement while he inhaled sharpl

An awkward silence immediately pervaded the interior of the Griffin Pavilion following Phillipe's unexpected outburst."That.." one of the scions quickly recovered his bearing, a forced chuckle escaping his lips. "O--Of course not."Phillipe harrumphed in response. However, a smooth voice suddenly interjected. "Considering how it's my birthday, my cousin must be feeling particularly overprotective."Appearing like drowning cats who had suddenly caught sight of a lifeline, the surrounding scions frantically cast their gazes toward the direction of the speaker.Maintaining a small smile, Tristan continued. "I don't know about anywhere else, but I doubt a single soul in Rozhou Fortress will dare scorn House Le Roy.."".. Or am I wrong?"Immediately catching the hidden contextual lifeline in Tristan's remarks, the scions nodded their heads frantically, loudly voicing their agreement. Scorn House Le Roy inside their own home domain? Not even a suicidal person would dare to incur the to

The Griffin Pavilion.Inside the elevated, spacious gazebo-like lounge which boasted a luxurious and refined decor, nearly a dozen young men and women were gathered around a long table. Spread across the surface was an assortment of delicacies and jugs of expensive spirits. Whether it was the rare material the table was crafted from, the fine texture of the tablecloth, or even the meticulous arrangement of the buffet—everything screamed of opulence."What a surprise." one of the young scions suddenly blurted.Like everyone present, he was clad in regal attire. "We came to Six Happy Seasons to discuss the upcoming Grand Hunting Tournament." Reaching this point, he stole a cautious glance at one of the two men who occupied the foremost seats at the head of the buffet table. "Never would I have anticipated running into the First and second Young Masters."Another scion interjected—a noble young lady who happened to be the daughter of the Rozhou Fortress City Governor."I have met a fai

"Yes. You do make a valid point. " Seo-yun inhaled sharply."However, listening to you will mean admitting to the fact that I wasted Cycles of my life chasing after an impossible and fleeting ambition. What am I supposed to do after that?!"For the first time, the composed calm anchoring Seo-yun's expression shattered like fragile glass. Sniffing heavily, she did her absolute best to force back the rising tears."What.. What an I supposed to do now?"Mei hesitated. Silently observing Seo-yun's sullen expression, she sighed sympathetically."Well—"The rest of her words were instantly drowned out by the sound of smooth violin notes that fluidly drifted past the walls of the private room. A sudden, pervasive calm enveloped the entire space."This.." Mei inhaled sharply. As she listened to the violin tune, she felt all her tensed muscles relax.She stole a fleeting peek in Seo-yun's direction. Just as she suspected, her sister's once gloomy expression had been entirely replaced by a sere

Compared to the visibly flustered Mei, Seo-yun remained perfectly, irritatingly composed. "It is true that to aid my training, the company spent millions of Jade Credits.""But now that my training is over, I'll prove that the company's efforts were not in vain. Once I regain Lonsheng, I—"Mei sharply cut in, her tone slicing through the air like a blade. "Recover Lonsheng? It appears despite all the time that has passed, you are yet to actually grow up."A cruel, mocking smile spread across Mei's lips as she leaned in closer. "Five Cycles ago, you were indeed the Princess of Lonsheng. But currently? you are nothing more than an enemy of the entire state!"Boom!The smell of gunpowder hung heavily in the atmosphere. This was soon followed by a tense, suffocating silence that enveloped the entirety of the private room.The quiet was tacitly maintained by both sisters. Dozens of breaths trickled by without so much as a single muscle twitch. However, the tense stalemate was eventually br
