260 – Court Grand Master

Morrince 2,867th said indifferently: “Ian!”

Yang Feng was even more respectful and his manners were meticulous: “This humble servant is listening!”

Morrince 2,867th pondered for a while before saying: “I very much like the potion and potion formula that you offered me. You are a Wizard. As such, I’ll reward you with the position of court grand master.”

Yang Feng was taken aback slightly before replying deferentially: “Thank you, Your Majesty!”

Envious gazes were gathered on Yang Feng.

There were many court Wizards consecrated in the Morrince Empire. Court Wizards were divided into 5 grades: grade-1, 2, and 3 court master, court grand master, and court master-in-chief.

Some Archwizard rank Wizards could only become grade-3 court masters in the imperial palace of the Morrince Empire, while only the strongest Archwizards or Legend Wizards could become court grand masters.

Yang Feng, who was only a mere Great Wizard (others had yet to find out that he already promoted to an ‘Archwizard’), could became a court grand master, which represented honor as well as great power.

According to the customs of the imperial palace, a court grand master would have 1 grade-3 court master, 8 grade-2 court masters, and 50 grade-1 court masters a their subordinates.

In other words, as soon as Yang Feng became a court grand master, he had 59 strong Wizards under his command

Of course, whether he could really subdue the 59 Wizards depended on Yang Feng’s capability.

In the St. Tulan City, with the blessings of the gods and the numerous purification barriers, Yang Feng could not control others with liquid metal nano robots. Otherwise, if he made a misstep, he would be found out and have the foundation he laid down destroyed.

After receiving the appointment, Yang Feng humbly retreated to amid the ministers and stopped next to Bousso. As a hereditary peer earl, he was qualified to attend the court.

Shortly after, the court was dispersed.

“Earl Ian, His Majesty invites you to the imperial study.” Just as Yang Feng wanted to leave, an attendant came to him and said respectfully.

Yang Feng replied: “Alright!”

Yang Feng followed the attendant through a cluster of corridors before arriving at the imperial study.

There was only Morrince 2,867th, who sat on a chair and flipped through a memorial to the throne, in the imperial study.

Yang Feng made an impeccable salutation and then said: “Ian, this humble servant, greets Your Majesty!”

Morrince 2,867th slowly turned around, looked at Yang Feng with his slightly muddy eyes, revealed a smile that was not a smile, and said faintly: “Ian, I heard that Garça invited you to the Beautiful and Gaiety Inn, where you passed a wonderful night, when you arrived at the St. Tulan City. Ian, what did he want from you?”

Yang Feng was shocked greatly and numerous thoughts revolved in his mind. By secretly relying on the superb perception of a level-3 Warlock, he could clearly detect at least 6 hidden Legend rank powers locked on him in the room. If he did anything suspicious, he would be besieged by 6 Legend rank powerhouses.

Yang Feng’s back was drenched in cold sweat. His thoughts revolved lightning fast before he said honestly: “His Highness 6th Prince Garça invited this humble servant to the Beautiful and Gaiety Inn in the hopes that this humble servant would join his faction to help him ascend the throne.”

Morrince 2,867th asked seemingly casually: “Have you agreed to join his faction yet?”

Yang Feng replied: “It was due to the recommendation from Governor Bousso that this humble servant could surrender to Your Majesty and become the earl of the Red Earth Wasteland. This kindness has been deeply ingrained in this servant’s mind. Without any hesitation, this servant agreed to join the faction of His Highness 6th Prince.”

Morrince 2,867th said with a light smile: “The one who made you an earl was me, not Garça. You should be loyal to me, not him!”

Yang Feng bowed his head slightly and flattered: “Yes! Yes! Your Majesty was indeed the one who made this servant an earl. This servant is willing to serve you till the last breath, Your Majesty!!”

Morrince 2,867th was a murderous, lascivious incapable ruler. So long as his bottom line wasn’t crossed, Yang Feng didn’t want to antagonize the other party.

Yang Feng said resolutely: “If Your Majesty wants for this subordinate to break ties with the faction of His Highness 6th Princes, this subordinate will immediately do so.”

Compared with his own life, the relationship between Yang Feng and the 6th Prince Garça was not worth mentioning.

Morrince 2,867th nodded in satisfaction and said meaningfully: “No need. Since you agreed to join Garça’s faction, then do a good job helping him.”

Yang Feng heaved a long breath of relief. He felt that the clothes on his back were drenched in sweat. He said with a respectful expression: “Yes! Your Majesty!”

To accompany a ruler was akin to accompany a tiger. As an incapable ruler, Morrince 2,867th was extremely dangerous. If your response wasn’t to his liking, you might have to forfeit your life.

Morrince 2,867th said faintly: “Alright! If there’s nothing else, you may withdraw!”

Yang Feng said suddenly: “Your Majesty, would you please hear out this humble servant.”

Morrince 2,867th replied indifferently: “Speak!”

Yang Feng said respectfully: “This humble servant wants to open a magic college in the St. Tulan City to cultivate talents for the empire. This servant would like to invite to assume the post of dean of this magic college, Your Majesty.”

On the Feisuo Plane, the way of inheritance of magic was very antiquated. Apart from the churches as well as the empires cultivating their court Wizards, there were only some loose Wizard organizations formed by Wizards.

Those who went on to be Apprentice Wizards were either discovered by Wizards during their travels, recommended by acquaintances to be brought under their wings and cultivated, or came from Wizard families. A Wizard would usually take no more than 4 apprentices. Such a way of inheritance led to a very small number of Wizards in the world.

On the Cangzhi Plane, a long time ago, the way of inheritance of magic was the same. However, the dissemination of colleges eventually replaced this antiquated way of inheritance and became the mainstream of the major forces on the Cangzhi Plane.

Morrince 2,867th contemplated for a moment before suddenly saying with a smile: “A magic college, you say? Okay. However, I won’t subsidize it.”

Yang Feng replied with a smile: “That’s not an issue. All the expenses will be covered by me.”

Morrince 2,867th said somewhat impatiently: “Good! You may withdraw!”

Yang Feng said respectfully: “Yes! Your Majesty!”

Morrince 2,867th took a vial of Dragon Stamina and drank it. His spirit was immediately roused and, as if he recovered his youth, he felt his body full of strength.

“What a good potion!!” Morrince 2,867th gave a long sigh, then went towards the imperial harem with a look of delight.

Yang Feng felt relieved when he stepped out of the palace gate.

The feeling of his fate being in another person’s hand was extremely uncomfortable for a Warlock like Yang Feng, who pursued the truth and freedom.

In the Victory Palace, except for divine chosen, the upper echelon of churches, and the patriarchs of divine descendant families hidden in the Morrince Empire, all other people were ants in front of Morrince 2,867th. With an order, he could squash those ants to death. Even Legend rank powerhouses were no different. All the while, Morrince 2,867th himself wasn’t even a Knight rank powerhouse. This was the strength of power.

“Ian, stop right there!” Yang Feng had just left the palace, when a girl dressed in a blue martial attire, with a blue ponytail and a sword at the waist blocked in front of him and stared daggers at him. The girl had a tall figure, a beautiful appearance, and an awe-inspiring and heroic temperament.

Behind the blue-haired girl followed 6 young men with swords at their waist. Looking very imposing, the 6 young men looked resentfully at Yang Feng.

Yang Feng creased his brows slightly and asked faintly: “Who are you?”

The blue-haired girl said indignantly: “Girón is my father’s chief disciple. For you to waste him, you think that you’re above the law?”

“Now I see.” Yang Feng showed a slight smile of contempt and said lightly: “If I committed a crime, then go report it to the security hall. Now, get out of my way. You commoners are blocking the way of a greater aristocrat. According to the law of the empire, you have to repent with 30 lashes.”

When they heard that, the imposing aura of the 6 young men standing behind the blue-haired girl was dampened and they recalled that the man before their eyes was a genuine greater aristocrat of the empire.

The law of the Morrince Empire stipulated that it was a crime for commoners to stand in the way of greater aristocrats, and it was subject to 10 gold coins and 30 lashes penalty.

In the Morrince Empire, commoners could not fight greater aristocrats, which was why countless people obsessed about becoming aristocrats themselves.

The complexion of a young man changed, and he said in a low voice: “Becky, let’s leave! He is a greater aristocrat. If we continue to linger around and he screams, we’ll be in trouble. The black dogs of the security hall are hunting dogs of greater aristocrats.”

The security officers of the security hall were clad in a black uniform, which was how they came to be known as black dogs among the lower class.

“I’m not afraid of him! My father is the Lightning Sacred Swordsman. He’s just an earl, what is so great about him? Look how I teach him a lesson, you cowards!!” Becky was angry. She barked and burst out with Sky Knight rank qi. Her figure flashed and she shot towards Yang Feng lightning-fast. Due to Yang Feng being a greater aristocrat, she was also fearful and didn’t drew her sword. She just wanted to catch Yang Feng and teach him a hard lesson.

“Interesting!” Yang Feng smiled and shouted at once: “Somebody wants to make an attempt on the life of a greater aristocrat! Someone come quick!! Somebody here wants to make an attempt on the life of a greater aristocrat!!”

“Who? Who dares to make an attempt on the life of a greater aristocrat!!” 4 security officers patrolling nearby came over in a hurry while shouting and blowing their sirens frantically.
