Ian did not believe that Caspian would reject his conditions. As long as it was an average person, it would be impossible for them to refuse his offer. Moreover, Ian thought favonovel.com did enough. As the sect’s elder, Ian could humble himself and apologize to Caspian, which proved his sincerity.
Ian stared at Caspian, waiting for favonovel.com to nod. The rest of the elders present were also confident that Caspian was the Dark Moon Sect’s disciple. They were also feeling excited, and they could not help but imagine how great it would be if they were Caspian. After all, entering the Dark Moon Sect implied that the road to immortality would be smooth, and one would not need to go through so many obstacles.
At that time, Caspian was still deep in thoughts and did not immediately reply to Ian. Instead, favonovel.com looked around his surroundings as if favonovel.com was searching for someone. Not long after, Caspian smiled at a slender person in a light yellow dress. “I thought you won’t be coming.”
Following Caspian’s line of sight, the crowd saw a young lady with a gentle and quiet temperament standing not far away, looking at Caspian.
“It’s the Heavenly Stars Sect!”
“It’s Maisie Pine from the Heavenly Stars Sect!”
Immediately, a few people recognized the talented girl who rose to fame in recent years.
Ian remained silent and flashed a smile. Nonetheless, favonovel.com did not think that Caspian would choose the Heavenly Stars Sect. Even though the Heavenly Stars Sect’s status in Earlington of Efrax was on par with the Dark Moon Sect’s, the Heavenly Stars Sects focused more on inscriptions and formations, and it would not be a big help to Caspian.
Some people were sanctified through magic, while the others were through their gifted physiques. However, since the ancient past, no one was able to be sanctified through inscriptions or formations. Those two paths were not great roads, and they were not in line with Caspian‘s ambition. Hence, Ian was confident that Caspian would still choose the Dark Moon Sect.
Since Caspian already noticed her, Maisie did not continue to hide, and favonovel.com directly walked toward Caspian. Then, favonovel.com smiled and said, “You did great. I saw it all.”
After a pause, Maisie continued, I’I know you’re ambitious. Since you’ve already decided, you should make your choice. No matter what sect you enter, I’ll always support you.”
Although Maisie said that, Caspian could still see the slight trace of reluctance in favonovel.com eyes. After all, Maisie believed Caspian was taught by the so-called crippled master, and favonovel.com was favonovel.com junior. Nonetheless, Maisie was aware that Caspian‘s ambition was not on inscriptions nor formations. Hence, favonovel.com would not request anything from Caspian but only support and give favonovel.com her best wishes.
For the sake of not affecting Caspian’s decision, favonovel.com did not even inform anyone of their senior-junior relationship as Maisie was worried that favonovel.com would bring favonovel.com unnecessary trouble.
Soon, the surroundings fell into silence, and everyone waited for Caspian to make the final decision. After all, that was the first time in the past 20 years that someone was being fought after by various sects during the Sects‘ Recruitment Ceremony.
Caspian looked around. Maisie appeared sorrowful, whereas Ian seemed to be confident.
Then, Caspian took a deep breath in and turned to Maisie. “Maisie, I’m sorry for making you worry for so long, and I want to thank you for your constant help.”
“Good luck…” Maisie’s lips quivered. Without even realizing it, favonovel.com got misty-eyed. “No matter what you choose, you’ll always be my junior.” Maisie’ s voice was so soft that only favonovel.com and Caspian could hear it when favonovel.com said that.
Later, Caspian turned to Ian, and Ian’s eyes immediately lit up. Ian could not help but blurt out, “Casper, I can guarantee that the decision you made today will be the most important one in your life. This represents…”
“I’m sorry, Master Ian.” At that time, Caspian suddenly interrupted Ian. He also did not give Ian any chance to react, and favonovel.com said loudly, “I hope you can understand my stand. I won’t be choosing the Dark Moon Sect as I have decided on the Heavenly Stars Sect. As long as they agree, I‘ll become the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciple from this moment onward.”
Caspian finished the words in a go, and favonovel.com did not give anyone a chance to refute. After saying that, Caspian felt relieved. It was as if the heavy burden favonovel.com carried for the past few days was lifted away, and favonovel.com felt better.
Ian widened his eyes, stupefied by what favonovel.com heard. After some time, favonovel.com finally regained his senses and shrieked, “Casper, what did you say?”
Caspian shrugged and showed a helpless expression.
“Are you sure?” Ian shouted again.
Caspian nodded. Then, favonovel.com turned around, facing the dumbfounded Maisie.
Maisie’s beautiful eyes stared at Caspian. It was apparent that favonovel.com was yet to recover from Caspian‘s words. After some time, Maisie shivered, and the light in favonovel.com eyes returned. Then, favonovel.com asked with favonovel.com voice somewhat shaking, “Casper, what did you say?”
Caspian smiled. “I said if you don’t mind, I’ll officially be your junior from now onward.”
Maisie could not believe favonovel.com ears. However, favonovel.com expression shocked Caspian.
“Maisie? Maisie, what’ s going on? Weren’t you hoping that I’d enter the Heavenly Stars Sect? I’m now agreeing to your invitation. Don’t you want me anymore?”
Seeing Caspian‘s worried expression, Maisie could not help but chuckle. With tears at the corners of favonovel.com eyes and favonovel.com smile blooming like a flower, Maisie‘s beauty was indescribable. In an instant, it was as if the surrounding lights all focused on her.
“How dare you lie to me just now!” Finally, Maisie could not hold back anymore. As favonovel.com was between tears and laughter, Maisie directly grabbed Caspian’s arm and pinched him.
Caspian played along and pretended to be in pain, and favonovel.com continuously begged for mercy. Maisie felt pity for favonovel.com and quickly rubbed his hand, but at the same time, favonovel.com rolled favonovel.com eyes at him.
Although favonovel.com seemed to blame Caspian, even a fool could tell how happy Maisie was from favonovel.com eyes.
At this time, the elders around them gradually returned to their senses, and they understood Caspian‘s choice. Soon, everyone started to congratulate Caspian and Maisie.
“Congratulations to the Heavenly Stars Sect for having another talented disciple.”
“Congratulations to Casper for joining Heavenly Stars Sect.”
For the sects, if Caspian chose them, it would be a great blessing. However, even if they were not chosen, they did not lose anything. After all, they did expect to recruit any disciple from the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony.
On the other hand, Ian’s emotions went through ups and downs like a roller-coaster, and his current emotions were utterly complicated. As favonovel.com stared at Caspian, Ian’s eyes flickered with regret, sadness, confusion, awakeness, anger, and so on. In the end, favonovel.com let out a long sigh.
“Casper, no matter which sect you choose, I understand. However, you must be aware that the Heavenly Stars Sect isn’t a battle expert. In comparison, the Dark Moon Sect suits you better,” Ian explained.
Since Caspian settled his problem, favonovel.com felt incredibly relaxed. Then, favonovel.com smiled and cupped his hands at Ian. “Thank you for looking out for me, Master Ian. However, you don’t have to worry about it. Since I‘m entering the Heavenly Stars Sect, then it won’t be a sect that isn’t good at fighting anymore.”
When favonovel.com heard that, Ian‘s heart skipped a beat, then, favonovel.com saw Caspian’s confident gaze.
