In the Conference Hall of the Mingshi Tang Headquarters …
Ren Qingyuan sat in the midst of the conference hall, looking at the news that had just been transmitted to him.
"Has the arrest warrant been issued in the various regions?"
"Reporting to Pavilion Master Ren, the arrest warrant has already been issued. Most likely, the news will spread across the entire Master Teacher Continent within a day. As long as Zhang Xuan appears, the headquarters will receive the news and dispatch men to arrest him immediately!"
A Nine Stars master teacher stepped forward and clasped his fist.
He was Elder Qu.
He had already returned to the headquarters from the Glacier Plain Court, and he had reported the news to the person before him. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for the order to be passed down so quickly.
"Pavilion Master Ren, the Master Teacher Arrest Warrant is an extremely important matter. Ever since the establishment of the Mingshi Tang Headquarters, it has only been issued nine times. Even though Zhang Xuan is a little headstrong, he is still a master teacher. Won't the headquarters be making a mountain out of a molehill?"
An elder frowned.
It was another elder of the Mingshi Tang Headquarters.
"What do you mean by making a molehill out of a molehill?"
Elder Qu flung his sleeves furiously. "Zhang Xuan is an 8-star master teacher, but despite his identity as the grand elder of the Mingshi Tang Headquarters, he even destroyed the Zhang family, the Sanctum of Sages, and the Glacier Plain Court … More importantly, he refuses to repent. Despite knowing that I am from the Mingshi Tang Headquarters, he still dared to make a move against me! Such a person must be punished severely, or else what will become of the prestige of the headquarters? Will the Mingshi Tang Headquarters still have the face to impart knowledge to the world? "
The other party's zhenqi had turned into poison, and he had impersonated Yang shi. More importantly, his eye of discernment was unparalleled in the world … Even the Mingshi Tang Headquarters would find it difficult to control him!
He had to deal with the other party as soon as possible. Otherwise, if he were to be allowed to roam freely, who knew how many powers would meet with a calamity?
Even though this person was capable of treating his injuries, he couldn't shirk his duty in the face of righteousness.
"I know what you are saying, but I've looked into his background. It has only been slightly more than a year since he started at Tianxuan Kingdom, and he has successfully challenged the Mingshi Tang Pavilion twice and cleared the Master Teacher Tower once. Putting aside his unparalleled talent, he even managed to raise the Qingyuan Empire's cultivation and eliminate the Qingyuan Empire's Qingyuan Empire. If we are to arrest him just because he caused a ruckus in the Zhang family, the Sanctum of Sages, and the Glacier Plain Court on top of that, wouldn't that be a little too harsh?"
The elder from before hurriedly said.
Zhang Xuan's experience was recorded in Mingshi Tang, so it was not difficult for the headquarters to check.
"Elder Wu is right. The Mingshi Tang Headquarters values talented individuals, and they are bound to be loyal to their friends and family. Even though Zhang Xuan hasn't abided by the rules and caused quite a stir, he has contributed significantly to mankind, and he has even groomed countless disciples in the Qingyuan Empire. I don't think that it's appropriate for us to arrest him directly!"
Another elder said. "Besides, he's the teacher of the Progeny of Combat, Zheng Yang. I fear that this might cause even greater conflict between the two of them!"
"So what if Zheng Yang is the teacher of the Progeny of Combat? The Combat Master Hall has given him countless resources, and the Mingshi Tang Headquarters has lent him the Hall of Spring and Autumn. Do you think that he would betray us just because of a teacher? "
Elder Qu sneered coldly.
"You know that I'm not talking about betrayal but conflict. The Progeny of Combat is the strongest fighting force in the Mingshi Tang Headquarters. It won't be good if we were to incur discord over this matter!"
The elder from before exclaimed.
"Discord? Humph, it's all thanks to the Mingshi Tang Headquarters. If we were to discord over this matter, what use is there for us to keep him around? "Elder Qu said." We mustn't allow this kind of evil to flourish, or else the Hall of Combat will be disbanded! "
"What you're saying is fallacious! If the Progeny of Combat, Zheng Yang, were to remain indifferent and remain in charge of the Combat Master Hall, who would believe that he would be able to do so? "
Elder Wu said.
"If they don't believe it, we can just replace him. Elder Wu, you should know that the strongest fighting force on the Master Teacher Continent is still the Mingshi Tang Headquarters.
Elder Qu bellowed.
"Enough!"
Just as the two of them were about to continue arguing, Deputy Division Head Ren Qingyuan shook his head and interjected.
"I have considered all of your suggestions, and it's indeed a blessing for the Mingshi Tang Headquarters to have such a genius in their ranks. However … the Zhang family, Glacier Plain Court, and Sanctum of Sages have repeatedly reported to me that Zhang Xuan has crossed the bottom line of the Mingshi Tang Headquarters. If we don't deal with him, I fear that the hearts of the people will waver, and more people will take advantage of their talents to commit atrocities!
"You should be aware of the current situation as well. We are facing the greatest crisis in the past several dozen millenniums. Mankind has to remain united and unite as one in order to overcome this crisis. Otherwise, I fear that we won't be able to overcome this crisis …"
"This …"
Hearing those words, the crowd fell silent.
Elder Wu and Elder Wu also revealed worried looks on their faces. A moment later, they couldn't help but ask, "Pavilion Master Ren, is that news … true?"
"It's definitely true!"
Ren shi nodded.
"The Otherworldly Demonic Emperor is the leader of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, and he wouldn't risk his life for no good reason. Why would he come to our Master Teacher Continent so discreetly? Isn't he afraid that we'll gang up on him? "
Even until now, Elder Wu still couldn't believe what he had just heard.
"He's not the only one. There are others who have come as well. Is there even a need to guess what they are up to?" Ren shi shook his head.
"I know that something has happened to the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe. Two ripples have already appeared there, but no one can be certain whether it will happen or not. Yet, all of them have already received news of it?"
Elder Wu asked doubtfully.
"Troubled times are coming for the Master Teacher Continent. We have to reduce internal strife as much as possible!"
Ren shi sighed deeply. "There's no need for me to elaborate on the implications of the alliance between the Zhang clan and the Luo Clan. The Sanctum of Sages also contains the wills of the predecessors, and they can guide us in the right direction. Some time ago, I communicated with Sage Kui, and he told me that he has already found a new sanctum master. The new sanctum master possesses unparalleled talent, and he should be able to meet the requirements before the crisis arrives. I've also asked Zhan shi about this matter, and he told me that the new sanctum master is likely to be Yang shi's direct disciple, Feng Ziyi! "
"We can't afford to mess with these two sanctum masters. As for the Glacier Plain Court, that goes without saying. Only those with innate constitutions are able to communicate with the heavens. How can we pacify the hearts of the people if we don't deal with this matter properly? I'm only the deputy sanctum master, so I don't have much influence in the Glacier Plain Court. If there's chaos, even Yang shi won't be able to suppress it. Unless … "
At this point, Ren shi's eyes suddenly widened in admiration and frenzy. "The legendary Celestial Master Teacher, the true sanctum master, has appeared!"
"Celestial Master Teacher? How can it be that easy to obtain the acknowledgement of the heavens? In the past several dozen millenniums, only Kong Shi has managed to do so! "
"Indeed. That's impossible!"
The elders shook their heads.
"If a Celestial Master Teacher really appears, I'll kowtow to him immediately and acknowledge him as my teacher!" Elder Qu harrumphed.
"Acknowledge him as your teacher? If such a person really exists, you aren't qualified to become his disciple, right? "
Elder Wu clicked his tongue.
"I'm indeed not qualified, but even if I can't become his disciple, I'm more than willing to become his servant!" Elder Qu raised his chin.
