BXBX NOVEL Chapter 253 The Grand Banquet
Han Cai and Elder Du, just like the other elders, received seats close to the Azure Dais so they could witness the guests arriving directly.
Seeing the screens, Han Cai begun to believe that god exists here he was craving to Tv and wondering how he could create array that could give him the television experience and now he found the maybe his fortune was changing. Han Cai reminded himself to make sure to get the details of this array so he could have a TV of his own in his abode.
Soon, all the seats started to fill up with elders and some disciples they brought with them. Every elder was invited, and they were allowed to bring one or two of their most talented disciples. Besides that, there were disciples from the admin department serving everyone who was attending.
While everyone waited for the guests and core sect elders to arrive, Han Cai and Elder Du waited patiently for the food.
Everyone of outer sect paying attention to Elder Du ,Han Cai and Shu Tao, who were wearing deep azure blue robes. Power in the sect was decided by the depth of color in one\'s robe. Deep azure meant they had held special position in sect even if they were just in outer sect. Most of the outer sect elders wore light azure robes. Unless the sect assigned them deep azure blue robes, they were not allowed to wear them at any of the sect\'s events.
People were also curious about Elder Du because he was the one who started concocting spirit pills in the outer sect. Han Cai noticed that most people were staring at Elder Du, but a few eyes were on him, especially two girls who kept staring at him.
The first girl was Pei Yao, with one of the elders of the divination hall. Beside her was another girl who had similar features to her. Han Cai guessed that she must be her sister. The two fairies of the Pei clan had caught the eye of an elder in the divination department.
The second girl staring at him was an outer sect disciple from the admin department, assigned to serve the members of the banquet. The girl was none other than Xu Qiaolian, his almost-fiancée, whose engagement Han Cai had been delaying for a long time.
Han Cai, had grown his hair he did not want to stand out as bald monkey specially with his experience in grand banquets he did not want to stand out as much as possible so he concocted hair growth pills which were simple to make and got his hair back.
He was looking normal now. He was surprised that these girls could still identify him even after five years had passed. Those two girls had grown too. Han Cai had to accept that they both were very good looking, but he was in no mood to entertain thoughts that would bring him no good.
Both girls were surprised to see Han Cai, the once-bald little kid, grown so much. He was good looking and seemed to be well appreciated by the elder who started the spirit pill department in the outer sect. Their families had informed them to keep an eye on the boy, but they had not seen Han Cai since he came to the sect.
They had assumed he might have become another alchemy hall disciple, concocting pills for the elders continuously. So, this was a surprise to them, which made them keep looking at him, especially Xu Qiaolian. As just a server here, her supposed future fiancée was being special disciple appreciated by an elder.
After the engagement discussion happened, she despised Han Cai, the bald little kid. Later, her clan told her that the engagement would be delayed because the kid was busy learning alchemy. Today, seeing him for the first time in a long time, he had already grown a lot and had become a special disciple of a department head elder. As she stared at Han Cai, she had mixed feelings about him now.
She saw Han Cai look at her and thought of smiling, but when Han Cai saw her, it was as if he was looking at a stranger. After looking at her, he looked away as if he did not know her. This infuriated her.
While the two girls stared at Han Cai, almost everyone else had arrived at the banquet.
After all of the outer and inner sect members had arrived, an announcement was made that the guests were about to arrive. The guests from the Jade Lotus Dynasty, Lang Nation, Longyi Dynasty, and Shenwei Kingdom arrived one after another. The number of people, if counted, was more than a hundred. They were dressed in colorful robes, contrasting the azure-dressed members of the Azure Dragon Sect.
Among them, many good-looking young masters could be seen. They appeared very refined, and chances were, they were most likely the princes or holy sons of their respective sects.
These guests received seats at the center of the dais, and soon an announcement was made that the sect master and the holy daughter of the sect were about to arrive.
Following the announcement, the sect master, sect protectors, and holy daughter of the sect arrived one after the other.
Han Cai was seeing sect master Lan Chen for the first time.
Sect Master Lan Chen was tall, with a statuesque build that commanded attention. His posture was upright and dignified, radiating an air of authority and charisma that befit his status. His face was wise yet stern, with a pair of sharp, piercing eyes that seemed to hold a profound depth, mirroring the vast sky itself. His hair, silver like moonlight, was tied back neatly, revealing his high, unlined forehead. His skin was unusually fair, which only accentuated his strong facial features.
Lan Chen was adorned in the sect master\'s attire, the vibrant royal blue robes that shone in the light. The color of the robes was so bright it almost radiated, symbolizing the sky where the azure dragon soars freely. The exquisite golden embroidery formed an intricate pattern of an azure dragon spanning across his chest and back, a mark of his overarching authority and the soul of the Azure Dragon Sect. The dragon, depicted in mid-flight amidst the clouds, represented his ascendancy and the sect\'s aspiration for soaring high.
