When Wen Yu noticed Mystic Moon’s silence, she bowed and said, “Lord Mystic Moon, I finished looking through the information I came to the Hidden Moon Pavilion to find. I hope I did not affront you by not noticing your presence. I apologize for bothering you.”
Mystic Moon did not immediately respond.
He casually flipped through the personalized magazine about the Miao family and their experts before asking Wen Yu, “Is the Young Lord clashing with the Miao family?”
Wen Yu looked up at Mystic Moon with respect but did not answer. She thought of herself as a full member of Lin Yuan’s team. If Mystic Moon wanted to know anything about Lin Yuan or Sky City, he could ask Lin Yuan anytime.
However, without Lin Yuan’s permission, Wen Yu felt that it was inappropriate for her to divulge anything about Lin Yuan or Sky City to anyone else.
Mystic Moon smiled, seemingly satisfied with Wen Yu.
During the meal they had together on New Year’s, Mystic Moon had noted that the Moon Empress and Lin Yuan, and Cold Moon and Chu Ci, looked like perfect Masters and disciples.
He could not help but want to find a disciple for himself.
However, the moment such a thought entered his head, Mystic Moon realized that the only candidate he could think of was Wen Yu.
Mystic Moon was usually swamped with his various duties as the Radiant Moon Palace’s main steward. Thus, he never paid much attention to the younger generation.
Mystic Moon knew that the only person who met his expectations as a potential disciple was Wen Yu.
He would be setting off for the outskirts in a few days, and the fact that he happened to bump into Wen Yu at such a time could only be the work of fate.
Mystic Moon never judged a person by their talents. He felt that talent only went as far as enabling a person to comprehend Willpower Runes. Everything else could be achieved through the accumulation of resources.
Even though some feys were rare and unusual, they could be specially cultivated by Creation Masters. Thus, there would not be any limitation when it came to fey choice.
An untalented person would not differ much from a person that possessed a variety of feys.
The number of feys a person could contract was limited.
Mystic Moon valued Wen Yu’s intelligence more than her talent, as well as her unshakable loyalty toward Lin Yuan.
As one of the Moon Envoys, Mystic Moon was well aware of the Moon Empresses’ feelings and respect toward Lin Yuan.
Cold Moon was the other Moon Envoy, and she had been accompanying Chu Ci in Redbud City for the past few months. Hence, she was not as aware as Mystic Moon.
Mystic Moon had recognized Lin Yuan as the Young Lord ages ago and treated him as a junior.
Wen Yu’s role by Lin Yuan’s side replicated the one that Mystic Moon played for the Moon Empress.
Mystic Moon was also more than willing to painstakingly nurture a loyal and competent stewardess for Lin Yuan.
Just as Wen Yu was about to speak, she saw Mystic Moon smile again.
“Wen Yu, are you willing to become my disciple?”
Mystic Moon’s words struck Wen Yu like a bolt of lightning.
Wen Yu felt utmost respect for Mystic Moon.
Without Mystic Moon’s guidance, she would never have been able to reach enlightenment as quickly as she did, no matter how smart she was. She would also never have been able to prove her worth to Lin Yuan.
As much guidance as Wen Yu had received from Mystic Moon, she never dared to hope that she would one day become his disciple.
Wen Yu, who had grown up in the cutthroat environment as one of the Radiant Moon Palace’s spirit attendants, had still managed to preserve her pure and kind heart.
However, all her years of competing had led her to realize that opportunity fell to the most prepared one.
There were even some chances that would vanish forever if they were not immediately seized. Trying to grasp them at a later time would be futile.
Thus, Wen Yu hastily replied, “Lord Mystic Moon, I’m willing to become your disciple.”
Mystic Moon’s usually bright eyes softened, and he said kindly, “If so, why are you still addressing me as Lord Mystic Moon?”
Wen Yu quickly shouted with solemn respect,” Master!”
When he heard Wen Yu address him as Master, Mystic Moon felt a sense of responsibility settle into his soul alongside that of being the Moon Empress’ Moon Envoy.
He did not immediately shower affection on Wen Yu. Instead, his expression turned serious as he said, “I’ll be very strict with you. You’ll have to make sure that you pick up everything I teach you.”
Wen Yu nodded vigorously.
Wen Yu had been exposed to Mystic Moon’s teaching methods before. His teaching style had really pushed the inexperienced Wen Yu to her limits, and she had thought of giving up.
However, after overcoming them, she could feel the monumental improvement she had gained after just one month.
Although this learning process was difficult, it was effective.
Wen Yu loved this feeling.
Wen Yu assured him, “Master, no matter how strict you are, I’ll be able to take it. I’ll earnestly learn everything you teach me!”
The moment Wen Yu spoke, she felt an astonishing pressure rise up in front of her.
The brilliant silver light was like a mirror, and it caused ripples in the air.
Wen Yu lifted her head and saw that Mystic Moon’s black hair had turned a sparkling silver. His face was now covered with silver dragon patterns, and two silver horns erupted from his head.
When Wen Yu saw the horns, she could not help but express her surprise. She had grown up in the Radiant Moon Palace, but she never knew that Mystic Moon was actually a fey.
The concentrated dragon charisma that radiated from him told Wen Yu that he was a fey with the dragon-species bloodline.
Wen Yu had come across many dragon-species feys before, including Zhou Luo’s Diamond/Fantasy Lava Dragon Lizard. However, under this terrifying dragon aura, Wen Yu was certain that the dragon aura she had experienced before this could not even hold a candle to it.
If they were compared, the latter would not even be considered as part of the same bloodline.
As a Creation Master, Wen Yu could guess that there was more to Mystic Moon’s dragon-species bloodline than met the eye.
The intensity of his bloodline could be considered the legendary true dragon-species bloodline.
What happened next shook Wen Yu to the core, and her eyes widened even more.
She did not expect that after becoming her Master, Mystic Moon would also become her Path Protector.
However, Wen Yu was confused about one thing. She had heard of swearing on Willpower Runes and Law Runes, but she had never heard of swearing on a boundary!
