The Imperial Preceptor… He was the first person in the country who once led the supremes to fight against the eight kingdoms!
A true hero!
Anyone who saw the Imperial Preceptor would feel a sense of fear and worship. After all, he was the Imperial Preceptor.
Philip walked into the gazebo and said with a bow, “Imperial Preceptor, Philip Clarke at your service…”
The Imperial Preceptor raised his eyebrows and smiled. He poured a cup of tea for Philip and said, “That’s fine. Come and sit.”
Philip obeyed and sat down.
The Imperial Preceptor glanced at Philip before turning his gaze up at the skylight above the gazebo. He sighed and said, “You really look a lot like him, which reminds me of my younger days with him. At that time, your father was also very high-spirited like you. He never cared about anything. He had his plans and faith about everything.”
Hearing that, Philip said, “Were you good friends with my father when you were younger?”
The Imperial Preceptor smiled and said, “That’s right… Your father and I used to be best friends. We were as close as brothers. of course, your father is also one of the people I admire most in my life. Without him, I wouldn’t be where I am today, and our country wouldn’t be in peace.”
The Imperial Preceptor got up, looked at the beautiful scenery outside the gazebo, and said, “Back then, your father and I used to be inseparable, but now, I’m the Imperial Preceptor, while your father is the head of the Clarke family. The responsibility on his shoulders is much greater than mine. Many times, I wonder what I would do if I were in his shoes. Now, the chess game is getting harder and harder to play.”
Hearing that, Philip’s eyes darkened. He got up and said, “Imperial Preceptor…”
The Imperial Preceptor came back to his senses and smiled. He patted Philip on the shoulder and said, “Don’t call me Imperial Preceptor. I can be considered your half-uncle…”
Philip was taken aback and said, “U-Uncle…”
Hearing Philip’s address, he laughed and said, “Good boy.”
“This book records the world of the other shore?” Philip asked in surprise.
The Imperial Preceptor smiled and said, “Yes and no. The origin of the Classic of Mountains and Seas is shrouded in mystery with many rumors about it. The many exotic beasts in the Classic of Mountains and Seas rarely appear in this world today but are quite common on the other shore… Back then, your father once pushed open the stargate and saw the beauty of the other shore. After he returned, he once said that the records in the Classic of Mountains and Seas are not false.”
Hearing this, Philip fell into deep thought. He looked at the Classic of Mountains and Seas in front of him in disbelief.
“Uncle, what exactly is the other shore?” Philip asked.
The Imperial Preceptor shook his head and said with a sigh, “Not many people in this world can witness the beauty of the other shore. Your father is one of them, and the grandmaster of your Clarke family was also one. The others maybe among those few… However, what I want to tell you is that your mother has actually been to the other shore, and she stayed there for three years.”
