Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation-Chapter 629 - 258: Facing Up_3

After fifteen minutes, the temporary Star Gate in this unknown Star Domain had been successfully activated.

"Fifth Young Master Qiao, you’ve worked hard," Wang Kan said with a smile.

"It’s only right."

"Someone, bring up the gifts I’ve prepared for Fifth Young Master Qiao."

Following the motion of Wang Kan, the Great Elder of Tianyang Star Hall, five tall, lovely maidens entered carrying five trays, each with treasures displayed.

Just a glance was enough for Fifth Young Master Qiao of Sumeru Palace to dismissively sweep his eyes over them, barely taking a moment to pause.

To him, a prince of Sumeru Palace, what kind of treasures hadn’t he seen? These items, though pleasing, were just that—pleasing to the eye.

"Fifth Young Master Qiao, the most significant gift I have for you isn’t on these trays," Wang Kan said with a smile.

"Oh?"

Fifth Young Master Qiao was puzzled. What was it then?

The next instant, Wang Kan expelled Star Power from his palm, cunningly pushing the five maidens towards Fifth Young Master Qiao of Sumeru Palace.

A rush of fragrant softness fell toward Fifth Young Master Qiao, who hurriedly embraced one and held another, managing through his Star Power to keep three of them from falling.

Not one of them hit the ground.

It was amid the chaos of Fifth Young Master Qiao embracing these women that a middle-aged man who had been following behind Wang Kan of Tianyang Star Hall swiftly flew into the newly opened temporary star gate and vanished in a blink.

The Star Gate suddenly fluctuated, and naturally, Fifth Young Master Qiao, the initiator of the Star Gate, sensed it and hurried to inspect it.

But at that moment, Wang Kan stepped forward and handed over a piece of jade, "In Changle City, I’ve arranged a residence for you. After this matter is concluded, Fifth Young Master Qiao can stay there for a few days before returning to the palace. These ladies here will also be waiting for your arrival."

Upon hearing this, Fifth Young Master Qiao glanced at the five women in front of him, his face showing anticipation.

"In that case, I’m imposing on the Great Elder," he replied.

"It’s only right."

With shared knowing smiles, the two parted ways as the five maidens left.

The disturbance caused by the recently opened Star Gate and those who entered it was naturally glossed over.

Who entered and how many, Fifth Young Master Qiao didn’t bother to find out.

After all, he hadn’t seen anything.

*****

In Dachen, on the bustling streets of Wanyi.

A burly woman with a full beard, along with a charming young girl nibbling on dried meat, was accompanying a pale-skinned girl in royal court dress as they wandered the streets of Wanyi.

The burly woman with the beard was carrying several large bags over her shoulders.

Jiang Yuan, who was munching on jerky, excitedly pointed ahead, "Princess Haoyue, there’s a candied hawthorn stall up ahead, it’s really delicious, let’s go try it."

The pallid girl was none other than Princess Haoyue of Sumeru Palace.

Hearing this, she licked her lips but shook her head, "No hurry, let’s take it slow. I’m more interested in hearing about Senior Brother Xu Jin from Feiyan Hall, the only male disciple."

"Alright, alright, I’ll continue telling you!"

Jiang Yuan was tasked with accompanying Princess Haoyue and was naturally intent on making her happy.

"Princess Haoyue, let me tell you, our Senior Brother’s most powerful skill has to be his Fire Series Star Skill, a Spiral Flame Burst—touch it and you’re dead..."

"That’s not right!"

Tang Chuo’s robust voice broke in, "The most powerful thing about Senior Brother Xu Jin is the Kite Ring Strategy! Many scholars have tried to learn it, but few have managed to resemble it.

Senior Brother Xu said, ’Mimic him and die, follow his lead and live.’"

"Eh, Kite Ring, tell me about this Kite Ring Strategy, it sounds impressive," expressed Princess Haoyue, intrigued.

"Sister Haoyue, I can’t learn it, but let me show you with my hands..."

Tang Chuo started gesturing with his fingers, thick as carrots, which somewhat annoyed the anxious-for-delicious-food Jiang Yuan.

What is this?

It looks nothing like it.

"Princess Haoyue, watch my performance!"

In the next instant, Jiang Yuan flew up swiftly, securing herself with ribbons to a large tree branch, then spun around rapidly.

"I might not resemble him perfectly, but Senior Brother Xu could hang suspended in mid-air, then rain down Fire Arrows furiously, so impressive! During the All Halls Competition, Senior Brother Xu dazzled everyone with this very move..."

"That’s incorrect, Senior Brother Xu seemed to have used this move during the autumn exam when he joined..."

Tang Chuo and Jiang Yuan began to argue, but the more they debated, the more it piqued Princess Haoyue’s interest.

She seemed to have uncovered an incredible secret.

That move was just like the one used by that person when they first met— the one that had defeated her effortlessly.

And the Fire Series Star Skill...

Age!

Cultivation Level!

Cultivation trajectory!

Everything seemed to match!

These two had been praising their Senior Brother Xu Jin since the day before yesterday...
