Chapter 2171
Fane’s room was on the west side hall. This used to be a storage space for miscellaneous items,but everything had been cleaned out and the space was nicely tidied.
After the runner disciple left, Fane poured a pot of tea for Noel and Brook, who bade him goodbyeafter spending half a day talking to them.
With that, Fane was the only one left in the west side hall after sending Brook and Noel away. Fanesighed helplessly as he stood alone in the empty side hall. He thought that Elder Godfrey would askhim to come after he had arrived. Unexpectedly, he had been ignored.
After sitting in the side hall for another hour, he became utterly bored and could not reign histhoughts. He then opened the side hall's door and walked out of the west side hall. Fane had juststepped on the green stone path when he saw a man in formal elder clothing sitting in the gazebo.The man had his back facing Fane and seemed to be enjoying his tea.
Fane's tension ebbed away when he saw that person's back figure. He walked steadily toward thegazebo that was situated in the middle. The surrounding plants were incredibly lush, which wouldobstruct one's view densely. He moved the leaves away as he
slowly walked inside.
Elder Godfrey slowly looked up and glanced at Fane who arrived in the gazebo.
Fane's expression seemed a little bitter. Although he had become Elder Godfrey's last disciple,Fane's mood was still slightly terrible. He sat down opposite Elder Godfrey impolitely before he tookanother jade teacup from the table to pour himself a cup of tea. The delicate fragrance of the tealeaves assailed his nostrils. He had never drunk such tea, but he knew that this was a type ofspirited tea that could clear one's mind with its fragrance.
Elder Godrey's mouth curled upward as a significant smile appeared on his face. He did not wastetime on other irrelevant things as he said straightforwardly," You can ask anything you wish to know,and I’ll tell you everything I know without reservation."
Fane scoffed lightly. He initially held respect for this formal elder, but what he did previously hadstripped off all the respect Fane had for him.
Fane replied in a slightly low voice, "I feel that the Eleventh Elder should give me an explanation.You didn’t give me any hint before suddenly announcing me as your last disciple in front ofeveryone, causing everyone to target me. I had no idea that the Eleventh Elder was so confident inme and knew that I was capable of settling this dispute without seeing me in action."
Elder Godfrey chuckled when he heard this. He did not get angry because of Fane’s angry tone.The elder picked up his cup and took a sip. "I know that you’re not a commoner, and this can beconsidered my test to you. If you pass the challenge, it proves that you're capable of becoming mylast disciple. The news I've declared is true as my last disciple has to be excellent in every aspect."novelbin
Fane was furious when he heard this. This meant that Elder Godfrey only had a brief understandingabout Fane, and he did not consider things on his behalf when he decided to do so. If Fane wascapable of suppressing the matter, it meant that Fane was qualified to be his last disciple. If Fanefailed, he would follow the First and Second Elders’ opinion and choose a last disciple among thosethree disciples.
