Even though Luo Xuanqing didn't want his younger sister to become the sacrificial lamb for the marriage, he knew that it wouldn't be easy to change the relationship between them and the Zhang family.
If it could be changed, it wouldn't be so painful. He had no other way.
"I promised my sister that I wouldn't pursue the matter. However, rest assured, First Elder, I will send someone to investigate. If it really doesn't work, I will ask him to take action!"
Luo Xuanqing said through gritted teeth.
"Get someone to investigate? Who was it? This matter must not be leaked. Otherwise, there will be great trouble! "
The First Elder frowned.
The Luo Clan wanted to kill the person that the Little Princess liked. If word got out that the Luo Clan wanted to kill the person that the Little Princess liked, they would definitely be criticized. They needed to find someone reliable.
"This person is my good brother. He's definitely reliable!" Luo Xuanqing nodded. "It's none other than the First Elder, the person whom you told me to befriend earlier, Zhang Xuan, Zhang Shi!"
"Him?"
The First Elder was taken aback for a moment before he nodded his head. "For you, he was willing to brave death and charge into the lightning. His brotherhood is indeed worth cherishing. He is a reliable person. However, you must be careful. Do not leak the news. Otherwise, I'm afraid that she will be angry and turn the world upside down!"
"Don't worry!"
Luo Xuanqing nodded. "Brother Zhang Xuan doesn't have the slightest interaction with my younger sister. The two of them don't know each other at all, so it's unlikely for them to interact with one another."
"That's good. Deal with it well. I'll wait for your news …"
The light screen shook, and the Grand Elder didn't say anything else. "Hu!" He disappeared before the eyes of the two.
"Elder Qi … There are so many experts in the clan, why do you want me to go?"
After the First Elder left, Luo Xuanqing closed his eyes, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
If he were to kill the person whom his younger sister loved, once the former learned of it, their relationship as siblings would be severed, and it would be impossible for them to return to how it was before.
"Sigh!"
Knowing what Zhang Xuan was thinking, Elder Qi shook his head and said, "Don't blame the First Elder. He has his own considerations for doing so!"
"Consider? But did he consider my feelings? "
Luo Xuanqing gritted his teeth.
"She's your younger sister. Killing the person she likes is a dispute between juniors. If we don't know anything about it, we can try to mediate! If the clan were to send someone over, things would get out of hand, and there would be no way to salvage the situation … As a member of the clan, you should understand this! "
Old Qi said.
Creak! Creak!
Luo Xuanqing clenched his fists tightly, not bothering to respond.
He was a smart man, so how could he not know this?
As a demon who doted on his sister, he had said more than once that those who were unworthy of his younger sister would be beaten to death if they dared to cause a ruckus … In the future, when the person whom his younger sister liked was killed, he would have an excuse to cover it up.
This way, the Luo Family would not be implicated, and the reputation of the great family would not be affected.
"Secondly, you should know about the previous five brothers … the family owes you! This is a test for you. If you can complete it, no one will say anything about you becoming the acting clan chief! Otherwise, there's no guarantee that there won't be anyone who won't accept it … "
Old Qi continued.
"I know …"
Luo Xuanqing's eyes reddened upon hearing the other party mention his five elder brothers.
"Alright, even if you don't have to think for others, you should still think for them. You should know better than I do what they should do …"
Elder Qi sighed deeply.
Luo Xuanqing fell silent. After a while, he raised his head and said, "I know what to do!"
"That's good … Go as soon as possible. Don't leak this out!"
Waving his hand, Old Qi said nothing more. With a sway of his body, he disappeared from the spot as though he was tearing space apart.
As soon as he left, the sealed space immediately opened up, and the chirping of birds in the surroundings drifted in once more.
"Hu!"
Heaving a sigh of relief, Luo Xuanqing stood motionlessly on the spot, deep in thought. Some time later, he sighed deeply.
"Younger Sister … Big Brother, I'm sorry …"
It was inevitable that his younger sister would be unwilling to get married, but it had to be said that the young prodigy was indeed worthy of her. On the other hand, the person whom she liked was just an insignificant figure in the empire. Before the might of the Zhang clan and the Luo Clan, he was indeed nothing at all.
"Actually, the main reason why the First Elder asked me to make a move is because … if I don't make a move, the Zhang clan will! Once they make a move, the Luo Clan will be placed in a disadvantageous position … "
Luo Xuanqing shook his head.
Given his intelligence, how could he not understand what the other party was trying to say?
The young prodigy of the Zhang clan had already been decided on as his wife, and yet, she had been snatched away by someone else. Anyone in his position would feel humiliated, and they would surely kill the person who stole her away!
If the Luo Clan were to make a move in advance, they would be able to avoid a lot of trouble. Even if the Zhang clan wanted to make a move, they wouldn't be able to do so. At the same time, his younger sister wouldn't be mistreated after marrying over to the Zhang clan.
Even though they were both Super Sage Clans, the Zhang clan was still far superior to the Luo Clan.
"Alright, I should look for Brother Zhang Xuan. He's the most suitable person to handle this matter …"
A glint flashed across Luo Xuanqing's eyes as he calmed down.
Since Zhang Xuan knew the ins and outs of the matter, he was the most suitable person to handle this matter.
However, if he were to do so, he might end up implicating his brother as well.
However, if the other party were to really do it, he would have to acknowledge the other party. As his standing rose in the future, the benefits he would receive would also be greater.
It was hard to say whether this would be a blessing or a curse to the other party.
Speeding along, it did not take long for him to arrive at the residence where Zhang Xuan was. After asking around, he learned that the other party had gone to the Hall of Erudition, so he quickly rushed over.
"Zhang Shi isn't here. He has gone to the Tower of Master Teachers!"
After asking a few questions, he received an answer.
"Tower of Master Teachers? He's intending to become an 8-star master teacher? "
Luo Xuanqing was stunned.
His younger sister had challenged the Tower of Master Teachers before, so it went without saying that he knew about it. However, he didn't think that Zhang Shi would be challenging the Tower of Master Teachers as well.
Due to the massive lightning tribulation that had occurred in the Hall of Integrity, it was no longer a secret that Zhang Xuan was intending to challenge the Tower of Master Teachers.
Everyone knew about it.
"It isn't that easy to challenge the Tower of Master Teachers … That fellow sure is brazen!"
Shaking his head, Luo Xuanqing hurriedly rushed in the direction of the Tower of Master Teachers.
The Tower of Master Teachers did allow one to become an 8-star master teacher swiftly, but if it was that easy to challenge, there would not have been so few people who had succeeded in the tens of thousands of years since the founding of the Sanctum of Sages.
Back then, he had also thought of challenging the Tower of Master Teachers, but he had eventually given up on the idea. He knew that it was impossible for him to clear the Tower of Master Teachers with his current strength.
Not only did one have to possess incredible strength and talent to clear the Tower of Master Teachers, more importantly, one's comprehension of the supporting occupations had to reach an extremely high level as well. And this was something that had stumped countless people.
After all, not everyone was like his younger sister, able to learn everything and have unparalleled talent.
Speeding along, it did not take long for him to arrive at the Tower of Master Teachers. Following which, he saw countless figures gathered at the entrance of the Tower of Master Teachers. Even the deputy sanctum head Zhan Tiancheng and Zhan shi were standing not too far away with anticipation in their eyes.
"It's starting!"
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted. Following which, the first floor of the Tower of Master Teachers lit up.
