Charlotte’s words were sincere, which was indeed favonovel.com actual thoughts. She was fifteen years old, captivated by the opposite sex at first sight However, the guy already had someone important in his heart. Hence, it was destined to be an unrequited love affair. Nonetheless, Charlotte still wished that favonovel.com could leave a little memory before favonovel.com departed. After all, favonovel.com did not know what changes would happen to favonovel.com in the long journey to immortality. However, Charlotte knew that favonovel.com would have no chance and courage in the future to repeat it innocently brave confession of a teenage girl.
“The pathway to immortality is long, and I just want to leave a memory so that I can recall in the future that when I was fifteen years old, I fell in love with a person and told favonovel.com bravely.”
Charlotte giggled, but tears suddenly rolled down favonovel.com cheeks. Even so, favonovel.com was still smiling, and favonovel.com eyes were also curved.
When Caspian saw Charlotte’s teary eyes, his heart skipped a beat. He had a faint feeling that the princess before favonovel.com hid something. However, Caspian understood that since favonovel.com did not intend to have any further development with Charlotte, the best way was still to end the matter when favonovel.com could promptly. If the other party had the illusion that there was still hope, then unimaginable chaos would likely happen in the future.
After some time, Caspian sighed and whispered, “I’m sorry…”
“Hmm. I know.” Charlotte nodded hard. Then, favonovel.com bent favonovel.com knees slightly, showing Caspian a very standard lady’s etiquette.
“I apologize for causing you trouble tonight, Casper.”
Since things turned out that way, it was difficult to have more topics between the two. Caspian also felt somewhat helpless. He could sense that Charlotte seemed to be burdened by something, but his previous rejection would be in vain if favonovel.com asked about it. Suddenly, the silence behind the curtain was broken by a commotion. Caspian and Charlotte glanced at each other, and they both looked out of the veil. Only then did they realize that the emperor announced the news of Heavenly Stars Sect taking over as the state religion just as they talked, and it was time for the sects and affiliated counties in the territory to come to present their congratulatory gifts.
In addition to the six major sects, Earlington of Efrax also had thousands of small sects. Moreover, the number was even larger when including the families of cultivators and various individual cultivators. It was still within the country’s territory itself, and Earlington of Efrax also had more than ten affiliated counties.
When favonovel.com heard that, Caspian could not help thinking, “In that case, Salleria is a subordinate county of Ucror.”
At that time, the process of offering congratulatory gifts continued, and the atmosphere of the entire banquet also reached a climax. The reason was straightforward, compared with the elusiveness of cultivating immortals, mortals naturally valued all kinds of gold, silver, and novel treasures more.
Caspian looked around through the gauze curtain. For some reason, the more enthusiastic the atmosphere was, the stranger the thoughts that arose in his mind. Caspian felt as if something brewed.
The emperor and queen of Earlington of Efrax smiled from ear to eat as a sect just brought in a medicinal pill that could prolong their lifespan by thirty years. The civil and military officials congratulated and wished the emperor and the empress good health and longevity. The scene even made Charlotte forget the sadness just now, and favonovel.com eyes stayed on that lively scene. However, the anxious thoughts in Caspian’s heart grew stronger.
“What’s going on?” Caspian’s breathing became rapid.
He always trusted his instincts as favonovel.com understood that intuition was not an illusion. Instead, it was a logical judgment from what Caspian saw and heard himself. However, the conclusion was based on his experience and atmosphere, and there was no specific thinking process. In other words, favonovel.com directly reached an answer, yet favonovel.com could not say it was a wrong one. The atmosphere was peaceful, but Caspian could not pinpoint what made favonovel.com uneasy.
‘Did Charles’s sudden appearance before make me overly suspicious?’ Caspian frowned slightly and swept his gaze across the courtyard.
‘The Spiritual Master’s divine consciousness is still there, and many elders from the six sects have come. Not to mention Charles alone, but even if a hundred or a thousand Charles rush out, they’ll only be killed instantly. Is my mind playing tricks on me?’
Just as Caspian thought about it, a voice suddenly sounded.
“The Middle Earlington’s family of cultivators, the Ethereal Simmons family, donates Mindstream Tea, All-Around Psychic Pill, and the spell Walk on Air.”
When the eunuch said the spell, Walk on Air, his voice trembled. For so many years, the treasures that were donated would only include medicinal pills and treasures, but the offering of spells was unprecedented. After all, such a technique was a foundation of the sect or family. Moreover, the Simmons family was also known as the Ethereal Simmons family, so the Walk on Air must be a family inheritance technique.
But, why would they offer such a technique to others?
To put it in perspective, it was like asking the Heavenly Stars Sect to hand over its ancestor’s teachings, which was utterly impossible. Yet, the Ethereal Simmons family was doing so. In an instant, the cultivators present stared at the few people walking by.
The Emperor of Earlington of Efrax reacted differently from the others. When favonovel.com heard, the Ethereal Simmons family, favonovel.com first showed a thoughtful look. After a while, his eyes lit up, and favonovel.com asked, “The Ethereal Simmons family, isn’t it Dickson Simmons‘s family, the senior figure of the two former dynasties when the previous emperor was alive?”
The several people from the Simmons family who came knelt at a place tens of meters away from the emperor and responded loudly, “We’re the Ethereal Simmons family younger generation, here to pay respect and see Your Majesty. May your majesty and your reigns endure everlasting longevity! My late grandfather was Ivan Simmons.”
The officials burst into an uproar and could not help whispering among themselves when they heard that.
“So you’re all Dickson’s descendants. Dickson was a veteran of the two dynasties during the time of the late emperor. After favonovel.com retired and returned to his hometown, a cultivator was born in the family, and the Simmons family turned into a family of cultivators. After the emergence of a cultivator in the Simmons family, the late emperor gave the title, Ethereal, to your Simmons family, including the spell. To express his gratitude to Dickson, favonovel.com requested the sect to grant the Simmons family a spell. Are you here to return the technique to the dynasty?”
Knowing that it was a family established by a loyal official during the late emperor’s time, all the ministers at the scene suddenly became much kinder.
The current emperor was also very excited when the descendants of the late emperor’s loyal official made contributions. To some extent, it was also an affirmation of his governance. The civil and military officials began to rack their brains, thinking about how to sing praises later.
At that time, Caspian glanced at Maya in the distance through the gap of the curtain. Coincidentally, Maya also looked at him. Both of them could see the shock in each other’s eyes. In a flash, Caspian even felt a deep chill flowing along his spine like an electric current, rushing up and making his scalp tingle.
