Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)

Chapter 2738



The bustling crowd suddenly came to a brief silence. Everyone's eyes were focused in one certain direction.

Fade looked over as well.

The crowd parted, and a group of people came over.

He recognized a few familiar faces amongst the group of people, including the Chief of Green Wood Hall, Janus. He took a closer look at them and discovered that the other chiefs were among the crowd as well.

However, the sixteen Chiefs walked with a sense of respect. In front of them, there were three men dressed in golden robes. They walked with a vigorous presence and a sense of superiority.

It was as if three lofty mountains, which were so tall that one couldn't even see their peaks, had suddenly appeared in front of the crowd. As they approached, their presence was so intimidating that the crowd couldn't help but lower their heads, not daring to make eye contact with them.

"This..." Fade was shocked.

Standing beside him, Lamella quickly tugged his sleeve and whispered, "Those are the masters of the Three Palaces. Bow your head in respect to them. Don't stare."

"These are the legendary masters of the Three Palaces of Prohibition Island." He was startled. However, he didn't stop to stare and also lowered his head.

There was a dead silence. The masters of the Three Palaces walked through the crowd. They reached their designated seats and sat down. Then, the sixteen Chiefs bowed to the three masters and said, "Greetings, Palace Masters!"

The crowd immediately bowed as well. "Greetings, Palace Masters."

"Take a seat!"This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

A man sitting in the middle spoke.

"Thank you, Palace Master!"

Then, the Chiefs of the sixteen halls took their seats as well. The quiet scene gradually became lively once again.

Fade slowly raised his head and looked at the three Palace Masters.

The Palace Master in the center of the group was burly and sturdy, giving off a sense of authority.

The Palace Master on the left was thin and bearded; he gave off a cold feeling.

The Palace Master on the right was chubby and had a round face. He was smiling and looked friendly.

Noticing that Fade was observing the three Palace Masters, Camelia explained in a timely manner, "The one in the middle is Master Firstson from Skytop Palace. The one on the left is the Master Secondson of Ground Evil Palace, and the one on the right is the Master Thirdson of Human Spirit Palace."

"Their names are First, Second, and Third?" He was a bit dumbfounded. He did not expect that the famous three Palace Masters' names were so simple and perfunctory.

She acknowledged his surprise and explained in a low voice, "It is said that the three Palace Masters are brothers. They are ranked according to their age."

"Brothers?" He was shocked to hear this. He couldn't help but look up at the three Palace Masters.

However, after closer inspection, he couldn't help murmuring to himself, "The three of them don't look alike at all! Are they really brothers by blood?"

She seemed to have noticed his lament. She whispered, "Look carefully. The three Palace Masters all have a similar birthmark on their left foreheads. That's proof that they are brothers."

Upon hearing this, he took a closer look.

He found that in between the gap of their hair, one could faintly see a bell shaped birthmark on each of the three Palace Masters' left foreheads. "They're really brothers." He sighed.

At that moment, Master Firstson from Skytop Palace, who was sitting in the middle seat, suddenly turned his eyes and looked at Fade.

Immediately, Fade felt a shiver down

his spine, and goosebumps

appeared on his skin. A sense of oppression and danger washed over him, which made his nerves tense up in an instant, causing his positive energy to surge in his body.

"Could it be that Master Firstson saw through my unspoken criticism and is planning to punish me?" He thought.

At that very moment, Master Firstson suddenly smiled and asked, "Are you Fade from Green Wood Hall?"

"Oh..." Fade was dazed. He then stepped forward, cupped his hands together, and said, "Palace Master, yes, that's me."

"The younger generation will surpass the older generation. Good job, do well." Master Firstson smiled and encouraged him.

When these words were spoken, everyone's eyes immediately fell on Fade. They carried all sorts of emotions, such as envy, incomprehension, jealousy, and even resentment.

Even the Chiefs of the sixteen halls looked at Fade in surprise. They didn't understand why Master Firstson would call out his name in front of everyone. He must've wanted to say something to Fade.

At that very moment, Fade's face was full of surprise and confusion. He didn't understand why Master Firstson had suddenly called him. However, Master Firstson looked around and glanced at the crowd. Finally, he looked at the Chiefs from the sixteen halls and waved his hand. "Time's up. Let's begin!"

The Chiefs were taken aback, but they immediately reacted and nodded in agreement, "Yes!"

Then, the Contest of Three Palaces officially began.

All the relevant staff members went onto the stage and explained the rules and regulations of the competition.

The rules were basically the same as the ones before. In the first round, two competitors would be drawn, and the cycle would repeat until the final champion was determined.

As for this year's reward, it was also similar to the previous years. It was all kinds of precious cultivation methods, medicinal pills, weapons, and other cultivation resources.

Fade paid no mind to these things and kept thinking to himself. Why did Master Firstson call him out in public without any reason, but end up not saying anything at all?

"Does he perhaps think highly of me and was trying to send words of encouragement?"

Shaking his head, he couldn't come up with a single clue. He could only take things one step at a time.

After the rules and regulations were announced, Master Firstson suddenly stated, "I'll add a special championship reward to this year's competition. The reward will be announced then."

Hearing this, the crowd burst into an uproar and became more curious and expectant.

After all, a special reward that Master Firstson personally promised would not be weaker than those cultivation resources.

For a moment, the desire to win became more and more intense.

As for Fade, he wasn't too excited. On the contrary, he felt even more nervous.

That was because he noticed that Master Firstson glanced at him when he announced the special reward.

An ordinary person might think that Master Firstson valued him.

However, Fade thought of the Double Blades Organization, which seemed to be in opposition of Prohibition Island, as well as the message his master had left him. He was going to bring the message to Yarrow, who was in the dungeon of the Three Palaces.

Fade could not help but suspect the words and smiles of Master Firstson.

l

Camelia noticed Fade's expression and thought that he was nervous because of the Palace Master's words. She smiled and consoled him, "Don't be too nervous. The Palace Master values talented individuals greatly. You've made a name for yourself in the secular world this time. It's normal that the Palace Master noticed you and encouraged you."

"Oh, I'm fine, Camelia!" He nodded and smiled, quietly suppressing his uncertainties and nervousness.

At that moment, after a loud thud, the decennial Contest of Three Palaces on Prohibition Island officially began.
