Chapter 572: Grand Elder Celestine

Chapter 572: Grand Elder Celestine

While the entire thousand transformation sect seemed to be made of intertwining landscapes of mountains and green valleys, the more they moved far behind, they found out there were starting to be houses present.

Houses made of glass, instead of bricks…

And at the end of the settlements was a palace that could rival even a mountain in pure hugeness, and just like the others, it was made with pure white crystalline glass.

As the Unicoras descended onto the grassy field in front of the place, they all stepped down from them and walked towards the humongous door, where two male guards stood to the sides, their eyes like that of an eagle bearing down on them with pressure…

‘I wonder why I have only seen males in guard position ever since arriving…’ Zeras thought as he watched Undying Narelle move towards the guards, stopping three meters away from them…

“I, Undying Narelle, have brought with me the new sect members from the Prodigies war events, to show to the Grand Elder Celestine, and for her to give them their blessings…” Undying Narelle said with a slight bow, as the guards turned their attention towards them.

“Nazia and her sister must stay behind. They already have the crest of the sect. The others are allowed in…” Both guards said simultaneously, as Undying Narelle gave a nod, signaling for Nazia and her sister to remain behind, before signaling to the others to follow after them…

As Zeras walked forward, he could feel the intense gaze of the two male guards almost boring into his body, and he could almost smell their confusion at what a boy was doing here.

But they didn’t ask, nor question about him. Since he didn’t have the sect’s crest, then that meant he was most likely here from the prodigy events. After all, there was no age requirement for the event… Maybe a talented chap…

Entering through the gigantic glass door, what was revealed to them was a long corridor of about 300 meters.

There were different runic lines present in the walls, and Zeras’s eyes scanned each of them. Up in the ceilings were different chandeliers, stretching down to a few meters above their head and hung over with the glassy chains that held them in place…

After walking the entire distance, they arrived before another humongous door, which opened up automatically, and stepping through it, what was revealed was a throne room of white with flights of astral blue stairs arching up, to a gigantic throne where sat a figure.

A figure with snow-white hair, and a snow-white gown that splayed around her, and with a pair of blue gloves covering her hands…

“Grand Elder Celestine…” Undying Narelle greeted, and to everyone’s shock, she actually kneeled on the ground before the lady, her head bowed and her right hand on her chest.

The girls didn’t need to be told before they also got into the same poses, leaving only the tiny boy remaining standing. But Zeras also went down like the rest, but he didn’t get into the same pose, as he actually got on a single knee and clenched his hands into a fist before placing it on his chest, and slightly bowing his head.

It was a standard knight bow that he had learned from Earth.

He didn’t know if it was respected here in the Upper realms, but he couldn’t kneel on the ground like the girls. He was repulsed by such an idea…

“RISE…” The words were like the coldest of ice. Gentle, and cold, biting into their hearts, as they all rose up from the ground, including Zeras.

“I know what you come for, young Narelle,” The lady said, drawing strange expressions on the girls as they all looked at the lady who could be said to be a younger sister of Undying Narelle yet she was calling Undying Narelle young!

“I have heard the tales of the events from the other sects. And what I heard wasn’t the least heartwarming…” She said as she suddenly clapped her hands, and in the next instant, two figures appeared inside the room.

And they were none other than Nazia and her sister. The two ladies had shocked expressions, not understanding how the scenery suddenly changed in a blink.

But they also immediately kneeled, the next instant they sighted the lady…

“You Both Rise, girls. I hope you don’t mind the intrusion of your privacy…” Grand Elder Constatine said, as she stood from her throne and walked to the edge of the dais, just a single step on touching the first step.

“There is a rumor spreading that our ten thousand transformation sect is suffering from a lack of men syndrome…” She suddenly said as Undying Narelle furrowed her eyebrows.

“It might have just been what you said, Grand elder. Rumors…” She said as the snow-white lady gave a nod.

“True. I have heard of much worse from those who will never reach our height. But what is most disturbing is the base that formed the rumor. I heard that a male passed the ten thousand transformation sect by being able to successfully woo the one who was to undergo the test with him…” She said as the temperature in the room dropped by a few thousand degrees…

“I am guessing the young man is this boy, here, and the lady is none other than Nazia…” She said as Undying Narelle gave a nod.

“What happened to him, the person that was described to me, as having aced all the tests and more, older than this…” She said as she turned her gaze to Zeras, who couldn’t help but suddenly feel his teeth clanking against each other from the sudden cold…

“It happened when on the journey, Grand elder…” Undying Narelle began and she quickly narrated everything that happened to him, in the way they had all perceived it.

“A Cultivation regression bringing with it age too!? It’s very rare but not impossible…” She said as she moved her gaze onto Zeras.

“I have no issue with him. Who I have an issue with is Nazia…” She said as she turned her frosty gaze towards Nazia who instantly collapsed on her knees…
