"Do you know the Human Emperor Sect?"
The young man in white slowly smiled, like starlight shining upon the gatekeeping disciple's face.
The gatekeeping disciple frowned slightly and barked.
"Get lost. This is Cloudmist Sword Manor, not some place any stray cat or dog can enter. I've never even heard of this Human Emperor Sect."
The gatekeeping disciple's tone was exceptionally vile, as though he would strike the moment they disagreed.
"Alas!"
A soft sigh rose from the white-robed young man's throat.
"What a pity. If your Manor Lord were here, he wouldn't speak like that!"
"Hmph, what kind of existence is the Manor Lord? You—"
Before he could finish, a flash of sharpness severed his words.
"Let's go. Let's take a look at the wedding of Cloudmist Sword Manor's chief disciple."
The white-robed young man spoke calmly.
"Hehe, Master, when did you create a Human Emperor Sect? How about making me an elder?"
"Junior Brother, don't speak nonsense. Master has his own arrangements!"
"Hehe, I was just curious!"
Laughing and bantering, the three made their way up toward Cloudmist Sword Manor.
Inside Cloudmist Sword Manor's main hall.
"Since that is the case, then Cloudmist Sword Manor shall respectfully comply rather than decline!"
Cloudmist Sword Manor's Manor Lord rose with a smile, lifted the cup in his hand, and called out.
"Everyone, let us drink to our alliance!"
With that, Cloudmist Sword Manor's Manor Lord was the first to drain the fine wine in his cup.
The many experts around him also smiled as they drank the wine in their cups.
The entire hall was filled with joy.
"Everyone, today is the wedding day of my disappointing disciple. Would you like to go outside and take a look?"
Cloudmist Sword Manor's Manor Lord invited them.
The Giant Clan's chieftain laughed.
