Gu Shuo, approaching from behind, happened to overhear them and was utterly shocked. 'Why have these people come to Dayu City?'
Xiang Minghou and Qian Fanji were also puzzled. The Wastelands, Beijiang, Guanghai, Loulan... each of those families was a force to be reckoned with. Why would they all gather in Dayu City?
"We wish Elder Chen blessings as boundless as the East Sea and a life as long as the Southern Mountains."
The large group shouted in unison.
The thunderous shout brought the crowd back to its senses.
"Everyone, do you… know me?" Elder Chen knew of these clans but had never had any contact with them.
He was happy to accept their well wishes, but he didn't dare to rashly accept such precious gifts.
"We know Elder Chen's apprentice, Miss Ye."
"Miss Ye is truly a remarkable person."
"Elder Chen, you've taken on an exceptional apprentice."
One after another, the guests all chimed in to praise Ye Qianning, their words overflowing with respect and admiration for her.
