Chapter 758: Chapter 2 The Incomparable Young Master_2

The vast prairies stretched to the horizon, with the brilliant hues of the setting sun illuminating the grasslands in swaths of radiant red.

Young Master Wang Anye’s serene heart was touched by a ripple of emotion, gaining a new understanding in this moment. The guards and attendants surreptitiously backed away, afraid to disturb their young master’s insights.

Several hours later.

He slowly opened his eyes, his mind calm and clear as ice.

The night was dark, moonlight bright and pure.

Two horses, one large and one small, appeared beside him, their coats as white and immaculate as the moonlight itself. Smooth as refined spiritual silk, their handsome heads adorned with a horn-like jade.

What was more striking were the wings that grew from their sides.

[Jade Horned Heavenly Horse]

These mysterious creatures lived in the depths of the Great Plains, extremely rare spirit horses. A glimpse of them would attract a crowd and inspire a search. Legend had it that only people with pure and untarnished hearts could get close to and be favored by the Jade Horned Heavenly Horses.

“Neigh, neigh.” The young Jade Horned Heavenly Horse, seemingly interested in Wang Anye, nuzzled against him repeatedly.

Wang Anye laughed warmly, gently petting the creature and taking out various foods from his bottomless storage ring to feed it.

Jade Horned Heavenly Horses were very picky about their food.

But Wang Anye had a wider variety of snacks. Ultimately, he found that the Jade Horned Heavenly Horse was particularly fond of Ice Crystal Jade Dew, Immortal Water Spirit Melon, and Soul Cakes made from an assortment of high-grade Spirit Rice.

The Jade Horned Heavenly Horse ate with great enthusiasm, growing increasingly fond of Wang Anye.

Soon, the adult Jade Horned Heavenly Horse led its foal away, only for the small Jade Horned Heavenly Horse to rub against Wang Anye reticently.

Quickly, the adult Jade Horned Heavenly Horse gave Wang Anye and the foal a deep glance, then spread its wings and took to the sky.

The little Jade Horned Pegasus seemed reluctant to part, watching its mother fly until she disappeared from sight. Only then did it nuzzle against Wang Anye affectionately and whinny.

“So…?” Wang Anye stroked his chin in thought, “Do you want me to look after you?”

“Neigh, neigh!” The Jade Horned Pegasus responded cheerily, prancing around Wang Anye excitedly.

“Alright.” Wang Anye took out more of the spirit food it likes. The Jade Horned Pegasus happily wolfed down the food, seemingly delighted with its new master. As for its mother, it had already left it high up in the Ninth Heaven.

In the distance.

The hidden guards and attendants were dumbfounded at this sight.

Is this possible?

Did their Young Master just come back from the prairie with a Jade Horned Pegasus, an entity of legend?

While this Pegasus might not have great combat abilities, it was incredibly swift and extremely rare. Its striking appearance would undoubtedly draw attention wherever it went.

Their Young Master truly is the unmatched Young Lord!

…

At the same time.

Lingyun Holy Ground.

Xuanmiao Peak.

Ever since Gong Yang Ce temporarily left, there were fewer visitors on the peak. The tranquility offered a stark contrast to the hustle and bustle of the disciples’ quarters halfway down the mountain.

On the peak, the majestic palace sculpted out of metal stood quietly, emitting a powerful aura that seemed to tear through the heavens.

But perhaps due to the lack of inhabitants, the powerful aura also carried an indescribable sense of solitude and chill.

On this day.

Xiaoyue was sorting through the recent news from “Dawn.”

Suddenly.

A streak of golden light soared across the sky before landing at the entrance of the palace. When the light faded, a man in white leisurely stepped out and made his way into XuanMiao Palace.

There were restrictions placed around XuanMiao Palace, and no sooner had the barriers been disturbed than Xiaoyue came out of her room to inspect the situation.

Once she saw the figure walking towards the inner hall, her eyes lit up. She quickly approached to greet him, “Master, you’ve returned.”

Indeed, the gentleman in white was none other than the master of XuanMiao Palace, Master Gong Yang Ce.

“Rise.”

Gong Yang Ce made a casual hand gesture then slowly walked towards the inner hall.

Seeing him seated, Xiaoyue immediately began brewing tea for him. Soon, a cup of tea was presented before Gong Yang Ce.

After observing his expression, Xiaoyue smiled, “Master, it seems your trip to the Frost Moon Immortal Dynasty was a success.”

Though Gong Yang Ce was usually reserved, Xiaoyue had served him for nearly two hundred years and could tell that he was in good spirits.

“Although there were a few hiccups, the outcome was fairly positive.” Gong Yang Ce took the cup of tea. As he recalled the gains from his trip, he couldn’t help but smile.

He took a sip of tea, and couldn’t help but think, the tea from Da Qian was simply more enjoyable. Even though the Immortal Tea from the Frost Moon Immortal Dynasty was of excellent quality, after a while, it just felt like something was missing.

As Gong Yang Ce enjoyed his tea, Xiaoyue briefed him on the major events that happened in the past thirty years in the Sacred Land and Great Qian Land.

With the upcoming “Emperor’s Son Contest,” there had been many shifts in power in Great Qian Land. Several officials with key positions had undergone changes and even members from a few of the Grade Three and Four Prominent Families had been implicated. Some were even disgraced and demoted.
