"She did?"
Zhang Xuan cowered back in fear. He drove his zhenqi furiously, and if the other party were to charge at him, he would immediately turn tail and flee.
This brother-in-law of his was a little unreasonable, and a wise man knew better than to fight when the odds were against him. If the other party really made a move on him, he would have no choice but to flee for the time being.
"That's right!"
Luo Xuanqing waved his hand in irritation.
Seeing that Luo Xuanqing had yet to make a move, Zhang Xuan hesitated for a moment before asking, "Then … who is he?"
"I'm not too sure either, but she got to know him while she was away. It's said that he's a master teacher, and he's a magnanimous person who cares about the world. Even though his cultivation is low, his character is perfect, and his mastery of pill forging is unparalleled in the world …" Luo Xuanqing was getting angrier and angrier as he spoke.
The more Luo Xuanqing spoke, the angrier he became. "However, she didn't mention her name, so I'm not too sure who she is."
"She didn't say his name?"
Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he felt deeply moved. He didn't think that he would be so perfect in Lozosy's heart. As expected of someone who understood him so well, she was able to see all the good in him.
Zhang Xuan turned to Luo Xuanqing and said, "Since the little princess has already said that he is so perfect, what else do you have to worry about?"
He really couldn't understand this brother-in-law of his. To reject such a perfect man, just what kind of man was he looking for?
It was hard to find a second man as outstanding as him in the world.
"Perfect? Humph! The more she says that, the more she is bewitched by that lad … Other than me, how can there be a perfect man in the world? "
Luo Xuanqing waved his hands grandly.
"Cough cough!" Zhang Xuan's eyebrows twitched, and he nearly choked on his saliva. This brother-in-law of his was perfect in every aspect, just that he was too narcissistic …
You are perfect?
You make a mess of everything you go to, and everyone is shouting for you to beat you up. You call that perfect? Don't you know what you're talking about?
With such thoughts in mind, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but shake his head. "In terms of perfection, you can't be considered. I'm probably the only one who can do so …"
"You?" It would have been better if Luo Xuanqing hadn't heard those words, but upon hearing those words, he shot a disdainful look at Luo Xuanqing and said, "Forget it. Those words of yours are a little ridiculous. You do have quite a lot of means up your sleeves, be it formations, beast taming, or lightning tribulation. You have your own unique way of doing things, but the way you conduct yourself is rather eccentric. You don't even think before you speak, and you have such a low EQ. I doubt that any girl will fall in love with you. Even if they do, they'd be blind … "
Even though she had only interacted with the young man before her for around twenty days, through her understanding of him, she already knew that he had a low EQ, slow reflexes, and a sharp tongue. When he saw a woman, he didn't have the slightest reaction that a normal man would have …
It made him wonder if he had some kind of special hobby. If people liked this kind of person, then it must be because they were blind.
"You …" Zhang Xuan was speechless. "You're almost the same. Don't you have a girlfriend? You're a bachelor, it'd be strange if there's a woman who would like you! "
What the hell? I respect you as my brother-in-law, but you actually said that no one likes me, not to mention that your own sister is blind …
You're the one who's blind, aren't you?
They share the same bloodline, the same clan, the same elder brother, and the same younger sister. How could there be such a huge disparity in their eye of discernment?
It was no wonder he didn't even have a girlfriend despite being in his thirties.
"You … Bullshit! That's because I don't want to find a girlfriend. All the women who get close to me are doing it for the sake of my identity as the young master of the Luo Clan.
Luo Xuanqing glared at Zhang Xuan with widened eyes.
"Stop finding excuses. If no one is interested in you, then so be it. What are you putting on an act for?" Zhang Xuan sneered.
"You …" Luo Xuanqing was on the verge of exploding.
The two men stared at one another, and it seemed like they wanted to tear the other party apart.
After a long while, Zhang Xuan finally waved his hand and said, "To tell you the truth, I have a girlfriend, and she loves me very much …"
"Hehe," Luo Xuanqing replied.
"What I'm saying is true. My girlfriend is extremely beautiful, and she's very powerful too," Zhang Xuan said.
"Hehe," Luo Xuanqing replied.
"Why? You don't believe me? How can someone as outstanding as me not have a girlfriend? "Zhang Xuan's face darkened.
"Hehe," Luo Xuanqing replied.
"…" Zhang Xuan.
A moment later …
"To tell you the truth, I have a girlfriend too," Luo Xuanqing said.
"Hehe," Zhang Xuan replied.
"My girlfriend is very beautiful, and she's very powerful too …" Luo Xuanqing replied.
"Hehe," Zhang Xuan replied.
"You …" Luo Xuanqing clenched his jaws.
The two of them glared at one another furiously.
"Alright, I won't waste my breath with you anymore. I just wanted to trouble you to help me look into the identity of the person my younger sister likes."
After a long moment of stalemate, Luo Xuanqing finally waved his hand.
This was the matter that he wanted to trouble Luo Xuanqing with.
"You want me to look into it for you?" Zhang Xuan frowned. "As the young master of the Luo Clan, you have many subordinates under you, and your sources of information are much wider than mine. Why do you want me to look into it for you?"
Even though Luo Xuanqing seemed to act rashly and thoughtlessly, through his experience with the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast, Zhang Xuan could tell that he was actually a meticulous person on the inside.
"I have already promised my younger sister that I won't look into that person, so I can only hope that someone else will help me. You're the only one who knows about this matter. Once you've looked into it, all you have to do is to mention it to me and let me overhear it. That way, it won't be against the rules. "
Luo Xuanqing waved his hand.
It was not that he didn't want to look into the matter, but his younger sister had said that she didn't want anyone to disturb the person she liked. He didn't want to agree to it, but after seeing the pleading look on her face, he couldn't help but ask for her help.
Since he couldn't look into the matter, and it wouldn't be convenient for him to tell others about it either, he could only turn to Luo Xuanqing for help.
"This …" Not expecting Lozosy to actually ask his elder brother not to look into the matter, Zhang Xuan was a little perplexed. However, he soon came to a realization.
She probably knew that he wasn't strong enough to stand against his future brother-in-law and the entire Luo Clan, so she didn't want him to be harassed or harmed.
"Sigh …" Sighing deeply, Zhang Xuan shook his head.
The hardest thing to accept was a beauty's kindness. She had sacrificed too much for him.
"Alright, I'll help you look into it. However, do you have any leads?"
Zhang Xuan hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Agreeing to Luo Xuanqing's request meant that he would be able to look into Luo Ruoxin's situation at any time. This would mean that he would have the initiative in his hands, and it would be much easier for him to spread the news in the future.
"The clues are … what I have told you just now. The person she likes is a master teacher, and it's said that he has a good character and looks … As for where she has been during this period of time, she didn't tell me about it, so I'm not too sure. I'll tell you about it after I find out about it."
Luo Xuanqing paused for a moment before continuing.
Ever since his younger sister left, there had been no news regarding her at all. Even as her elder brother, he wasn't too sure where she had gone.
Perhaps someone in the clan might know, but he would have to ask around.
"You can tell me about it once you get to the bottom of it."
Hearing that Luo Xuanqing didn't know much, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.
This would give him a lot of time to raise his cultivation swiftly.
Knowing that Lozosy wasn't harmed in the slightest, Zhang Xuan didn't ask any further.
Given the current circumstances, it wasn't a good time for him to show himself. What he needed to do right now was to become an 8-star master teacher as soon as possible so that he could raise his cultivation and become the head of the Sanctum of Sages.
Only then would he be qualified to reveal his identity and stand against the pressure of the two Sage Clans, just like Lozosy.
"I have just achieved a breakthrough, so I need some time to reinforce my cultivation. Here is the pinnacle spirit stone that I promised you."
Seeing that Zhang Xuan had agreed to it, Luo Xuanqing flicked his wrist and passed a jade box over.
It seemed like he had met with his clansmen earlier and received their rewards.
"Thank you!"
This was what he deserved, so Zhang Xuan didn't turn down Luo Xuanqing's gift.
As soon as his hand came into contact with the jade box, he immediately felt pure spiritual energy gushing into his meridians, causing his Heaven's Path zhenqi to surge uncontrollably.
As expected of a pinnacle spirit stone. Even before opening the jade box, it was already so effective. Concentrated high-tier spirit stones paled in comparison.
"I'll reinforce my cultivation first before looking for you."
After saying those words, Luo Xuanqing sat down cross-legged.
The end of the lightning tribulation meant that he had successfully achieved a breakthrough to Dimension Sundering realm, becoming a true Dimension Sundering realm expert.
"Un."
Seeing that Luo Xuanqing had started cultivating, Zhang Xuan knew that he wouldn't be in any danger in the Sanctum of Sages anymore. Thus, he turned around and headed back the way he had come.
Returning back to his residence, Zhang Xuan was just about to use the pinnacle spirit stone to replenish his zhenqi when Sun Qiang suddenly rushed up to him.
"Young Master, someone has been waiting for you here for several days."
"Waiting for me?"
Zhang Xuan frowned.
He had been so busy ever since he arrived at the Sanctum of Sages that he didn't even spend a few days in his residence. On top of that, he didn't know anyone at all. Who in the world was looking for him?
Who in the world had been waiting for him for several days?
"That's right." Sun Qiang nodded.
Zhang Xuan couldn't help but ask, "Who is it? Which power is it?"
"It's a young man in his twenties. I don't know which power he's from, but he did mention his name."
Sun Qiang recalled for a moment before replying, "If I'm not mistaken, his name is … Feng Ziyi!"
"Feng Ziyi? Yang Xuan's direct student? "
Gedeng! Zhang Xuan's heart skipped a beat as he froze on the spot.
