Invincible Over the World
Chapter 787: 784

Chapter 787: 784

The celebration continued for over three hours before it concluded.

As soon as the celebration ended, the Azure Dragon Mansion Master Qin Yi led the group from the Azure Dragon Academy to bid farewell to the Jade Pool Saint Mother and depart. As they left, the members of the Azure Dragon Academy all lowered their heads, hurrying away.

Even some of the ancestors and family heads who were on friendly terms with the Azure Dragon Mansion Master Qin Yi missed the chance to come forward and greet him.

Watching the Azure Dragon Mansion Master Qin Yi and his group’s embarrassed departure, Huang Xiaolong sneered. It must have been tough for them to sit there for several hours at the celebration, stifling the desire to leave until it was finally over.

It seemed that Qin Yi still had some regard for the Jade Pool Saint Mother.

After the celebration concluded, many ancestors and family heads also began to bid farewell to the Jade Pool Saint Mother with their disciples, but there were some who stayed, intending to attend the master-apprentice ceremony three days later.

Of course, the Xuanwu Mansion Master Feng Yang and Liu Yun were among those who stayed; they naturally wanted to attend the master-apprentice ceremony as well.

As the crowd dispersed, the remaining ancestors and family heads returned to the palaces that had been arranged for their stay.

The night was deep and quiet.

Huang Xiaolong stood in the courtyard of the palace, pondering over the events that had happened on the stage earlier that day.

Today’s event of him sending Lu Cong flying with a palm strike, turning him into a human-shaped meat patty, was bound to spread across the Four Great Star Rivers through the mouths of the various powerhouses. He could already imagine how they would be shaken by the news.

When that happened, he would once again be at the center of turmoil.

However, Huang Xiaolong didn’t regret revealing his strength this time.

With his current strength and influence, even the Azure Dragon Academy would find it extremely difficult to deal with him.

Of course, what he displayed on the stage today was just a part of his strength.

The Xuanwu Divine Fire and the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire within him were his true reliance.

But the thought of the master-apprentice ceremony three days later gave Huang Xiaolong a bit of a headache.

At that time, those ancestors and family heads would surely try to curry favor and offer congratulations. He would inevitably have to deal with yet another round of pleasantries.

The three days passed quickly.

The master-apprentice ceremony arrived.

The master-apprentice ceremony was still held at the Jade Pool.

The Jade Pool had been redecorated, flowers were everywhere, and it was even more festive. When Huang Xiaolong, accompanied by the Jade Pool Saint Mother and his master Feng Yang, arrived at the scene, all the ancestors and family heads were already present.

The multitude of ancestors and family heads came forward with smiles to greet them.

The Jade Pool Saint Mother and Feng Yang responded with smiles and nods.

Soon after, the master-apprentice ceremony began.

Following a series of intricate procedures, Huang Xiaolong completed the master-apprentice ceremony with three kneels and nine kowtows to the Jade Pool Saint Mother.

Watching Huang Xiaolong finish the master-apprentice ceremony, the Jade Pool Saint Mother’s face was full of warmth and a smile as she personally pulled Huang Xiaolong to his feet. However, as the Jade Pool Saint Mother bent over to lift him up, the ample whiteness of her chest became clearly visible to Huang Xiaolong.

Although Huang Xiaolong saw it unintentionally, he couldn’t help but feel his blood quicken.

Seeing Huang Xiaolong’s master-apprentice ceremony complete, the observing ancestors and family heads around them came forward to offer ceaseless congratulations to both the Jade Pool Saint Mother and Huang Xiaolong.

The Jade Pool Saint Mother responded with smiles and thanks, then took Huang Xiaolong by the hand and seated him beside herself.

The hand of the Jade Pool Saint Mother was extremely smooth, soft, and fragrant.

Huang Xiaolong looked helplessly at the Xuanwu Mansion Master Feng Yang with pleading eyes, but Feng Yang just nodded and even appeared to be encouraging him.

Seeing this, Huang Xiaolong could only resign himself to sitting next to the Jade Pool Saint Mother.

Above the wine banquet, there was laughter and cheerful conversation.

However, sitting next to the Jade Pool Saint Mother, Huang Xiaolong felt somewhat uncomfortable as her enticing fragrance intermittently wafted into his nostrils. Even though, after the master-disciple initiation ceremony, he had truly become her Cloth Bowl Disciple, the Saint Mother was simply too beautiful, and it was hard for anyone not to entertain some fancies about her.

In the Star River, there were many examples of master and disciple eventually becoming a couple.

Some were male masters with female disciples, and others female masters with male disciples.

For those above the Divine Domain in strength, age difference was no longer an issue.

As dusk fell, the banquet finally came to an end.

Huang Xiaolong returned to the living palace with his master Feng Yang, Elder Brother Liu Yun, and the others.

Back at the palace, Huang Xiaolong unconsciously recalled the stunning beauty of the Jade Pool Saint Mother: those delicate hands, that seductive fragrance, her smile, and the extremely ample snowy white expanse of her chest as she bent over.

Suddenly, he snapped out of it and shook his head. What was he thinking? Although the Jade Pool Saint Mother was incredibly beautiful, he was not some lecher.

He thought of Shi Xiaofei, and his heart warmed.

Whenever and wherever he thought of Shi Xiaofei, it always brought him a comforting warmth.

Then, Huang Xiaolong’s thoughts shifted to Li Xiaolu.

Thinking of her, his mood fell.

Over the years, although he had been searching for Li Xiaolu’s whereabouts, ever since he destroyed the Divine Hall, she had vanished without a trace.

Originally, he had suspected that Chen Ying, the adopted daughter taken in by the Xuanwu Deputy Mansion Master Wang Na, was Li Xiaolu under an alias, but after investigating, it turned out that Chen Ying wasn’t her.

A while later, Huang Xiaolong calmed down, sat cross-legged in the Sumeru Divine Palace, and began his cultivation.

A night passed.

The next day, the visiting ancestors and Family Heads bid farewell one after another, and a few days later, his master Feng Yang also left Jade Pool Mountain with Liu Yun, Chen Yang, and Qi Wen.

Huang Xiaolong stayed behind.

As the inheritor and Cloth Bowl Disciple of the Jade Pool Saint Mother, he naturally had to inherit her cultivation techniques, alchemy skills, and everything else related to the Yaochi Sect.

After seeing off master Feng Yang, Elder Brother Liu Yun, and the others beyond the Great Lake Realm, Huang Xiaolong turned back and headed for the Jade Pool Saint Mother’s Jade Pool Palace.

“Greetings, Young Master!” the palace maids of Jade Pool Palace knelt on one knee and saluted upon seeing Huang Xiaolong.

Huang Xiaolong nodded.

“Xiao Long, you’re here. Come in,” the Jade Pool Saint Mother said, pleased to see Huang Xiaolong. She reached out to take his hand and led him inside, then made him sit down next to her.

Once again held by the delicate hand of the Jade Pool Saint Mother, feeling its softness and silky touch, Huang Xiaolong’s heart inevitably sped up a bit.

Sitting so close to the Jade Pool Saint Mother, Huang Xiaolong could even feel the warmth emanating from her body through her gown, and his face couldn’t help but blush.

The Jade Pool Saint Mother saw Huang Xiaolong’s expression and chuckled, “What? You’re still shy in front of your master?”

The surrounding palace maids also chuckled softly.

Then, straightening her expression, the Jade Pool Saint Mother began to talk to Huang Xiaolong about the history and techniques of the Yaochi Sect.

The Sect, just like Elder Sheng Yue’s Ten Thousand Realms Sect, only chose one inheritor for each generation.

However, the majority of the inheritors had been women.

When it came to the cultivation of the Jade Pool Holy Scriptures, what astonished Huang Xiaolong was that it could only be practiced by virgins.

Only virgins could practice it? Huang Xiaolong suddenly wondered if that meant the Jade Pool Saint Mother was still a virgin, a virgin of tens of thousands of years?

Seeing Huang Xiaolong staring blankly at her when she mentioned that one had to be a virgin to practice the Jade Pool Technique, especially staring right at her ample chest, she guessed what was on his mind and chided, “What are you foolishly thinking about?”

As Huang Xiaolong gazed at the Jade Pool Saint Mother’s scolding yet charming expression, he couldn’t help but be stirred again. (To be continued.
