Chapter 1491
They had to admit that the Lantern Festival was organized perfectly. There were all kinds of
exquisitenterns and gorgeous performances that attracted everyone''s attention.
On such an asion, there were many couples on the riverbank who began taking pictures. Some
even got on their knees, proposing to their significant others. It was extremely lovely.
The position of the wooden building really was at the perfect angle. Fade and the others had the
perfect view of the performance. It was a one-of-a-kind experience.
After all the fireworks, everything started to dim and the ce gradually quieted down.
"Is thentern festivaling to an end? So fast?" Just as Fade was wondering, flickering lights
slowly approached on the river surface.
The crowd on both sides of the river bank were all excited to see this. One after another, they began
to cheer, and the scene resumed bustling with activity once more.
As the lights approached, Fade saw that the shining lights on the river were boats finely decorated
with exquisitenterns.
The boats were ornamented into different shapes and themes, and they were gleaming and
eyecatching on the river.
As eachmp boat approached, the crowd on both sides would cheer loudly.
"What''s going on?" Fade found it weird. ra felt that Fade was having doubts. Pointing at the gs
fluttering on the bow of the boat, she eximed, "Brother Chen, take a look at those gs!"
Fade fixed his eyes on the bow of each boat and noticed there was a g on each of them. There
were names printed on the gs such as "The Huang family of Zobery District", "The Cheston
Group of Zobery District" and "The Chamber of Commerce of Zobery District".
"These... thesemp boats aren''t officialized by the organizer?"
ra nodded and exined, "The boats are not officialized by the organizer, but they are arranged
separately by various well-known organizations in the Zobery District."
"As there are many organizations taking part in this Lantern Festival and there are limited slots for
the boats, only powerful organizations could get their boats on the Wavey River."
"From a certain point of view, these boats can be regarded as a tform for them to advertise how
powerful their organization is, and some might see it as apetition."
After hearing ra''s exnation, Fade nodded his head.
It turned out that the Lantern Festival was not just all fun and games. It was also a tform for them
topete for how powerful their organization is.
Upon thinking of this, Fade could not help ncing at Taufeeq and Cadmus. He asked ra, "Did
the Moo and Chai families also preparemp boats?"
ra nodded and answered in a low voice, "My dad has made a lot of preparations for this festival.
The same goes for the Chai family."
As soon she finished talking, a burst of enthusiastic cheers suddenly sounded from the field,
instantly attracting all the eyes on the scene.
Fade looked up and saw two hugentern boats gradually approaching them.
All the previous boats were fabulous and breathtaking, butpared to these two, they seemed like
child''s y.
First was the size. The two boats were thirty meters in length, the height and width were ten meters
each. It was so tall that it was nearly the same height as the buildings on the riverbank.
In terms of the decoration, these two ships were obviously better adorned than all of the previous
boats. All kinds of expensive materials and exquisite patterns were appropriately essorized on
the ship. Together with the blinding lights, the whole ship looked as if it was a huge moving pce,
which was stunning.
Just by the decoration itself, it could be seen that they had spent tons of effort on these boats.
One of the boats was decorated like a dragon that was about to soar into the sky. Its grandness was
extraordinary and astounding.
The other boat was embellished into a huge mountain and it gave out an oppressive feeling as if it
could ovee everything.
"These two boats should belong to the Moo and Chai families!" Fade had this assumption in his
mind and as he nced at the gs on the bow, his assumption was correct.
The dragon- shaped boat belonged to the Moo family, and the mountain-shaped boat belonged to
the Chai family.
With the appearance of the two boats, the atmosphere at the scene was getting more and more
high-spirited and energetic.
All the ordinary people were discussing how gorgeous the boats were, while some of them were
analyzing the situation.
"The Chai family and the Moo family are indeed among the top families in the Zobery District. It
could be seen how impressive they are by the decoration of their boats. It''s marvelous."Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.
"It''s true that they are among the top families, but now it''s hard to say who is the first and who is the
second."
"What do you mean?"
"Don''t you understand? A few days ago, Zelson Chai, the leader of the Chai family and Horgan
Chai, the young master of the Chai family were found dead. The Chai family has suffered a great
deal because of that. The Moo family took this opportunity to overtake the Chai family."
"Look at the Moo family''sntern ship. That soaring dragon clearly indicates Taufeeq''s ambitions!"
"If that''s the case, the giant mountain on the Chai family''s boat also shows their determination to
suppress everything. It seems that the two families are going to have a head-on battle with each
other."
"That''s for sure. The two families have alwayspeted with each other during the Lantern Festival
but this year it is way more intense. Looks like it''s going to be interesting."
The moring could be heard by everyone on the third floor.
Everyone was well aware of these things, but no one had pointed it out. Instead, they all pretended
just to not hear it and retained their smiles to maintain the harmonious atmosphere.
However, when the two boats drove to the two sides of the central ind, their speed gradually
slowed down and finally stopped in front of the two sides of the central ind. The expressions of
everyone on the third floor altered.
Taufeeq and Cadmus stared at each other. Their gazes were slightly stern, then they withdrew their
stares and put on a straight face.
Among the big shots ofZobery District, an old man with white hair walked forward. After ncing at
the two sides, he announced loudly, "It''s almost time. Thepetition for the Lantern Festival can
now begin."
Hearing his words, Taufeeq and Cadmus almost nodded simultaneously. They waved their hands
and said, "Begin now."
Along with their words, Fade saw three silhouettes appear on each of the twomp boats. They
were all finely dressed, their muscles were bulging and they exuded positive energy from their
bodies.
One could tell at a nce that they were skillful martial artists.
"Is this a Martial Arts Contest?" Fade looked at ra, slightly surprised.
