Ten Thousand Dragons Technique-Chapter 207: Expelled!

"No problem. I will open the Cyan Dragon Hall for you right away, Young Master," Manor Master Li agreed straightforwardly.

If anyone else had heard this, they would have been stunned. After all, throughout the entire Great Xia Country, not even the royal family had the privilege to enter the Cyan Dragon Hall. And yet, Lin Xuan was about to enter with ease.

Lin Xuan himself was taken aback. I thought I’d have to explain more, but Manor Master Li agreed so readily. It seems the big black dog was right. Before me, the entire Cyan Dragon Manor is no different from a group of servants. My word is absolute law.

While Lin Xuan and Manor Master Li were having their reunion, the rest of the Cyan Dragon Manor grew lively. Chu Yue had arrived. She was holding a banquet to entertain her junior martial brothers. At the same time, members of other families and sects seized the opportunity to curry favor and connect with her. Their arrival made the Cyan Dragon Manor exceptionally bustling.

This was the first time most of them had ever visited Cyan Dragon Manor, and they looked upon the surrounding scenery with great curiosity. Even Chu Yue’s beautiful eyes shone as she walked toward the twelve great halls, accompanied by one of the manor’s elders.

The venue for their banquet was the Ancient Celestial Hall, the foremost of the twelve great halls. This hall was extraordinarily exclusive; under normal circumstances, not even a Grandmaster could host a banquet here. Only those of the King level were permitted entry. The fact that Chu Yue could enter was a sign of immense prestige, and she was very satisfied with this arrangement.

RUMBLE.

The doors of the Ancient Celestial Hall swung open, releasing an ancient, desolate aura. As Chu Yue walked inside, she gasped in surprise. The entire hall was decorated in a classical style, making her feel as if she had traveled a thousand years back in time. The disciples around her stared, dumbfounded. Even the geniuses from other prominent families and sects were utterly shocked.

Truthfully, they all came from extraordinary backgrounds and had seen countless treasures, but none had ever witnessed such an ancient hall. The artifacts within were all genuine relics from a millennium ago. The hall’s Array was also active, bathing the space in a faint light and projecting circling illusions of various Divine Beasts.

How could one describe the feeling? It was like stepping into a Human Immortal Realm. It was too shocking, too incredible.

"Moon Fairy, you have so much influence!" one of the geniuses exclaimed.

"We would never have had the chance to come here in our lifetime! It’s all thanks to you that we could enter today," another added.

The surrounding disciples chimed in, "That’s right, Senior Sister! We are all basking in your glory!"

"Senior Sister is mighty! Senior Sister is amazing!"

A smile crept onto Chu Yue’s lips as she heard their words. She lifted her chin high, relishing the wonderful feeling of being looked up to by all.

"This is nothing," she said haughtily. "In the future, I will even be able to enter the Cyan Dragon Hall."

The others enthusiastically agreed.

Chu Yue turned to an elder of the Cyan Dragon Manor and declared, "I am very satisfied with this place. The banquet will be held here. Go and prepare the dinner."

The Cyan Dragon Elder nodded, and the manor staff began their preparations.

「Meanwhile...」

The doors of the ancient pavilion opened once again. Manor Master Li stepped out and spoke to the Grand Steward. "Hear my command! From this moment on, close the Cyan Dragon Manor. Expel everyone."

"What?" The Grand Steward was stunned. "Close the manor? Why?"

"I am going to open the Cyan Dragon Hall. No outsiders are allowed to be present," the Manor Master said coldly. Opening the Cyan Dragon Hall required the use of the twelve Ancient Halls as support, so they had to be completely empty.

"I understand," the Grand Steward nodded, preparing to leave.

"Wait," Manor Master Li said. He pointed at Lin Xuan. "This is Young Master Lin. From now on, all of you will address him as Young Master Lin."

"His words are my words. His orders are my orders. Seeing him is the same as seeing me. You must all obey his every command unconditionally," the Manor Master declared, his voice firm. "To resist him is to betray me and to betray the entire Cyan Dragon Manor."

The Grand Steward sucked in a sharp breath.

Li Qiushui was also stunned. Even though I’m the Young Lady, I don’t receive that kind of treatment. Who in the world is this boy? Could he be Grandfather’s illegitimate son?

"Go and make the arrangements," Manor Master Li said with a wave of his hand.

The Grand Steward hurried away. He had to personally see to it that all the guests were escorted out of the Cyan Dragon Manor.

After he was gone, Manor Master Li turned to Li Qiushui. "I know you have many questions, but there are some things I cannot tell you. This involves the secrets of the manor. You will only have the right to know once you become the Manor Master."

"However, I can give you a piece of advice. You must never feel jealous of Young Master Lin, because his status is above yours and even above mine. When you see him, you are to treat him as you would treat our great ancestor. Do you understand? You must not show the slightest hint of insolence."

Li Qiushui was dumbfounded. It seems Young Master Lin isn’t Grandfather’s illegitimate son. An illegitimate son would never receive this kind of treatment. Then what is Lin Xuan’s background? Could it truly be related to our ancestor?

"Did you hear me?" Manor Master Li demanded in a cold tone.

Li Qiushui snapped back to reality. "Grandfather, rest assured, I heard you. I will treat Young Master Lin with the utmost respect."

"You will call him ’Young Master’!"

"Understood. I will treat the Young Master with the utmost respect."

「Elsewhere...」

The Grand Steward gathered the elders of the Cyan Dragon Manor. "The Manor Master has given an order! Effective immediately, the Cyan Dragon Manor is to be closed. All guests who have entered must be escorted out. Be polite about it, but make them leave. Explain that this was an unforeseen necessity. To make it up to them, we can offer them a fifty percent discount on their next visit. Hopefully, they will cooperate."

The elders all nodded. They would naturally obey the Manor Master’s orders.

Just then, one elder stood up. "Grand Steward, Chu Yue is in the Ancient Celestial Hall. She is Chu Zhongtian’s sister. Do we have to drive her out too?"

The elder was hesitant. If it were some ordinary genius, he wouldn’t think twice. But this was Chu Zhongtian’s sister. Who was Chu Zhongtian? He was the number one genius of the Great Xia Country, a man destined to become a Martial Emperor in the future. He was an unparalleled overlord. The elder dared not provoke him, and he assumed the Cyan Dragon Manor would not want to easily offend him either.

The Grand Steward paused. "I will go ask the Manor Master."

He found Manor Master Li and explained the situation.

To his surprise, Manor Master Li just sneered. "So what if she’s Chu Zhongtian’s sister? Forget his sister, even Chu Zhongtian himself cannot compare to a single hair on the Young Master’s head. Stop wasting time and get rid of her."

"I understand." The Grand Steward returned to the elders and announced, "It doesn’t matter who it is. Expel everyone."

The elders sprang into action, going to each Ancient Hall to usher the guests out. One by one, the guests left. At the Ancient Celestial Hall, however, they ran into some trouble.

Inside the Ancient Celestial Hall, the guests were still surrounded by the mysterious and unpredictable illusions of Divine Beasts. Chu Yue sat upon the main seat, her chin raised like a proud peacock, as the surrounding talented disciples presented her with gifts, congratulating her in advance for securing the top spot on the Hidden Dragon Chart. This made her feel incredibly happy and satisfied.

At that moment, the Grand Steward walked in. He was going to personally escort Chu Yue out.

The first thing he did upon entering was deactivate the Array. Instantly, the illusions of the Divine Beasts vanished.

Everyone froze.

Chu Yue’s expression darkened. What’s going on? Why did they turn off the Array? Who dares to disrupt my enjoyment? Such audacity!
