Chapter 266.1
Many people came, including representatives from the Buddhist Sect, Taoist Sect, Demon Sect, and other factions.
Their ages varied greatly, from teenagers and young talents in their twenties to elderly folks in their seventies and eighties.
As for gender, that was even less of an issue.
In fact, Master Painter was so indiscriminate in his choices because his legacy was so demanding. It was very difficult to find a suitable successor, so he had to be open to all factions, statuses, and ages.
As long as one passed the first test and arrived on his island, they were eligible to become his disciple.
What surprised Lin Beifan was that Mo Yuyan had also come.
She had originally planned to go to Great Luo after the New Year to stir up some trouble, but after hearing about this event, she changed her course to join in the excitement.
After all, the Great Luo Dynasty was always there to be dealt with, but Master Painters search for a successor was a rare occasion.
She naturally did not want to miss this grand martial arts event.
She surveyed the large ships lining the coast, and one luxurious fleet caught her attention.
Great Xia Emperor Lin Beifan is here too? she muttered to herself with a hint of surprise in her tone.
She couldnt understand why a dignified Emperor would travel thousands of li to a remote island to participate in a Grandmasters disciple selection event. It seemed somewhat irresponsible.
But when she thought about Lin Beifans character, it all made sense.
This guy always acted unpredictably and took you by surprise. You could never guess what he was thinking or planning to do.
Sister Mo, what are you looking at? a timid voice asked.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)
Mo Yuyan looked down to see a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. She had delicate features and fair skin and wore a somewhat worn green dress, looking a bit travel-weary and fragile.
However, despite her lack of cultivation and frail appearance, her gaze was incredibly determined.
The girl before her was Li Shihua, whom Mo Yuyan had encountered at sea, a young lady from a family that had fallen on hard times.
At the time, she was on a small boat, hoping to travel to the Painting Realm to seek a master and learn the arts.
A fierce storm came and nearly swallowed her up, but fortunately, Mo Yuyan happened to pass by and rescued her.
Your heart is so relaxed its left the country, running off to someone elses doorstep!
This is the first time shes seen such a reckless Emperor.
For some reason, seeing Lin Beifans reckless demeanor always reminded her of her senior.
Although her senior was an unfathomable and esteemed figure, he often acted out of the ordinary, leaving her alternating between laughter and tears.
The two of them were so alike; could they really be the same person?
Mo Yuyan once again harbored doubts in her heart.
And this young lady is Lin Beifan looked towards the green-clad young girl behind Mo Yuyan.
From the moment she entered, she had been timidly hiding behind Mo Yuyan, curiously and shyly looking at him.
At this moment, Li Shihuas heart was in turmoil, her heart almost leaping out of her chest.
Because she never expected that the acquaintance Sister Mo mentioned would be Great Xia Emperor Lin Beifan, a legendary Emperor who transformed a small kingdom into an empire in just three years, one of the most powerful people in the world!
For the past three years, she had grown up listening to the legends of Lin Beifan.
Her heart longed for such a legendary man, eager to meet him.
And now her dream had come true!
Moreover, he was even younger and more handsome than she had imagined, more dashing and elegant, as if he was glowing.
The young girl felt a bit dizzy as if she were in a dream.
