"Welco, welco! Your arrival truly brightens our humble abode!"
"Isn't this Lady Vinova of Moonshade? What a pleasant surprise!"
"Friends from Aviros, I hope you'll enjoy your stay here."
"My Lord?! You've co as well? Please, co right in!!"
...
...
And so, round after round, Entini welcod nearly a hundred distinguished guests into the Felder family estate. Though Entini was naturally proud and sowhat arrogant, faced with these powerful figures from the Source Star Universe, he had no choice but to rein in his pride and display a fawning smile.
After all, Before these supre experts, he was nothing more than an insignificant ant. ...
After greeting a guest from the Giant Clan, Entini finally had a mont to rest and patted his chest with lingering fear. Recalling the pressure exerted on him by that Lv9 expert just now, Entini's excited yet anxious heart pounded uncontrollably.
"As expected of Lord Yaohuaba's guests—such presence, such power, truly terrifying..." "Still, I never expected so many people would co."
Beside him, Belar, the family's Third Elder, sighed with genuine feeling. It was well known that in the past hundred years, the Felder family had never welcod so many distinguished guests. In a sense, The quality of guests reflects the host's strength and status. Now, with so many powerful figures from Source Star visiting the Felder family, it would bring unprecedented honor to their family.
"It seems we really should thank the Young Master... to actually move the Holy Lord and beco his disciple."
"Indeed."
Entini nodded noncommittally, "But this is rely the beginning. As our relationship with the Sword Spirit Clan deepens... our Felder family will go even further!" Entini's words were filled with confidence.
As he spoke, The Family Grand Elder cast his gaze toward the garden scenery behind him and the decorations along the street: "To avoid disappointing Lord Yaohuaba, everything must be done properly. Whether it's welcoming guests or security work."
"Understood. But you needn't worry so much. With Lord Yaohuaba and so many experts here... no one would dare cause trouble."
"Better safe than sorry, staying vigilant is always right." "
Yes." "Hmm... by the way."
"What is it, Grand Elder?"
"Tell , have the spirit butterflies around our estate increased lately?"
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, Belar slowly turned his head, also directing his gaze toward the green trees nearby and the distant flower fields. What entered his vision was not only beautiful natural scenery but also several silver butterflies dancing in the garden and among the treetops.
Silver butterflies, Also known as spirit butterflies, Were extrely rare and beautiful creatures in Sky Nation, ordinarily almost impossible to spot. For this very reason, the Felder family estate, with its abundance of spirit butterfly presence, had beco an enviable place within Sky Nation. It was well known that wherever spirit butterflies passed, they left behind spiritual energy that had the effect of nurturing the human soul and enhancing cultivation.
However, In the past, even in the Felder family estate, the number of spirit butterflies one could see was extrely limited. Seeing about ten at once like this was indeed unprecedented.
Nevertheless, Belar didn't seem particularly concerned about this unusual phenonon.
"Spirit butterflies naturally tend to gather in areas rich in spiritual energy. Now, with so many experts gathered in our Felder family estate, it's only natural that spirit butterflies would be attracted here. you needn't worry too much."
"That's true, I suppose." Entini couldn't refute Belar's words, But for so reason... Gazing at the spirit butterflies fluttering nearby, looking at these beings considered symbols of good fortune, Entini inexplicably felt a sense of unease. He seed to vaguely sense an indescribable oppression from these butterflies.
This... must all be my imagination, right? Entini muttered to himself uncertainly.
"Hmm?" And just as Entini was obsessing over the spirit butterfly matter, a Felder family guard rushed urgently to Entini's side.
Turning slowly, concealing the unease on his face and resuming his usual arrogant and composed expression, Entini said with slight displeasure: "Why such panic? What kind of behavior is this? What if Lord Yaohuaba's guests were to see you?!"
"For-forgive !" The guard knelt in terror.
"Fine, I'm in a good mood today, so I won't hold it against you. Mind your behavior next ti!"
"Yes! Grand Elder!"
"So, what matter requires such urgency?"
"Grand Elder, it's about Mina..."
"Hmm? That girl?"
Entini suddenly furrowed his brow: "What's wrong with her now? Is she causing trouble in the water prison again? Really, it seems she needs more discipline. rely confining her isn't enough."
"No, no, that's not it!" The guard shook his head repeatedly: "It's... it's that Miss Mina has made a request. She... she wants to see you, Grand Elder!"
"What??"
...
An hour later, after greeting the final distinguished guest on the scheduled plan, Entini went to the water prison. Though he very much wanted to seize the opportunity to curry favor with those racial leaders he'd never had the chance to et before, he didn't dare neglect Mina's matter.
If sothing went wrong, The family head would definitely kill him.
"Suddenly asking for ? What does she want?" Muttering in confusion, Entini, escorted by several guards, arrived at the entrance of the water prison.
"Hmm?!! This, this is..." As the scene inside the water prison ca into view, a flash of astonishnt crossed Entini's eyes.
Because, Inside the water prison, The previously ntally unstable eldest young master Wilt was now, contrary to his usual behavior, curled up in a corner of the water prison, trembling non-stop?
What? That fool who dared to defy even the family head and Lord Yaohuaba was trembling?? What's going on??
Entini frowned in confusion.
But compared to Wilt, he was obviously more concerned about another figure.
At this mont, In the shadows of the water prison, a black-haired girl was sitting elegantly on a damp boulder. Her deanor was relaxed and at ease, as if being surrounded by these ancient stone walls and the oppressive space created by black water magic could hardly shake her inner composure.
Her black hair fell across her slender shoulders, strands of shimring light like stars in the night sky, bringing a hint of warmth to this dim environnt. Although her robes were tattered, the unique temperant she exuded could not be buried by any prison.
The black-haired girl revealed a leisurely air in her every movent. Her fingers gently stroked, as if playing an invisible lody. In the shadows of the water prison, the elegance and serenity she emanated was like a quiet lotus blooming in a lonely pond.
Without a doubt, The current Mina was a completely different person from the girl who had entered the dungeon yesterday, screaming and struggling incessantly. If not for their identical auras, Entini would have suspected that Mina had been replaced by soone else.
But, If she hadn't been replaced, why? Why such a dramatic change?
On the other side, Before Entini could speak, noticing her visitor, Mina slowly turned her head and greeted Entini in a friendly manner: "Good morning, Elder Entini~"
"..." Entini fell briefly silent, his gaze intently examining Mina. Several seconds later, the Felder family Grand Elder finally spoke again. He had no interest in exchanging pleasantries with soone of inferior bloodline, so he got straight to the point.
"You specifically called here. Do you have sothing to tell ?"
To this, Mina also nodded directly
"Yes~"
"And what might that be?"
"Hehe~" With a slight smile, Mina's lips curved upward, revealing a barely perceptible, aningful smile.
"Nothing much. I just wanted to let you know that I agree to your demands... I'll cooperate and marry Larkett, and I'll give you an heir too~"
