Seeing how the sickly and frail young lady from before had grown into a powerhouse that even the Mingshi Tang headquarters feared, Zhang Xuan's eyes reddened slightly. Nodding his head in satisfaction, he reached out and stroked the young lady's hair lightly.
"Not bad, you've finally grown up!"
Zhang Xuan sighed deeply.
The first time he met this young lady, she was still lying unconscious on a sickbed. In order to save her, her father had disregarded his standing and committed innumerable atrocities, just so that he could save her for a few more days. In the end, even though he knew that he was doomed to die, he still charged into the mountain range infested with saint beasts without any hesitation, never to return.
After entering the Poison Temple, the many poison masters had helped her awaken her unique constitution, and in just a few short months, her disposition and strength had undergone a massive transformation. She had been so weak before that she didn't even have the strength to truss a chicken, but now, even Nine Star master teachers had to respect her with just a gesture.
If Wei Changfeng's spirit was watching from the heavens, it should be enough to comfort him!
Geji! Geji!
As Zhang Xuan stroked the young lady's head, his thoughts drifted. By the side, Shen Jue, Lin Jianghai, and the others were gritting their teeth in fear.
The person before them was their founder. Possessing the Innate Poison Body, her words were absolute in the Poison Temple, and anyone who dared to question her would be poisoned to death in the blink of an eye. She was so powerful that no one dared to oppose her!
Even when they met, they had to treat her with utmost respect, fearing that they might offend her. Yet, this fellow was actually stroking her head as if she was a child …
"Our hall master … isn't angry?"
Fearing that the hall master would fly into a rage, they quickly realized that not only was there no anger on the other party's face, there was even agitation in his eyes, as if he was looking at his kin.
"From the looks of it, not only did Zhang Shi impart to our hall master the art of poison, he must have done her a great favor as well … I would rather offend our hall master than to offend him!"
Coming to this realization, the trio immediately grew wary.
If they offended the hall master, they might still be able to appease him with an apology, but if the hall master were to learn that they had offended the hall master … he would probably kill them mercilessly!
"The head of the Poison Temple … is his student?"
"If that's the case, does that mean that the head of the Poison Temple spared Gong shi back then out of respect for him?"
"For his student to be able to become the head of the Poison Temple, it means that he is a formidable poison master himself! It's no wonder why he was able to wreak havoc despite only being at the Dimension Sundering realm, rendering the Zhang Clan, Sanctum of Sages, and Glacier Plain Court helpless against him. His Art of Poison is truly bizarre and unfathomable.
"Controlling the lethal poison is equivalent to controlling an unstable factor. I have to deal with it as soon as possible. Otherwise, the entire continent will suffer a calamity as soon as possible!"
"Zhang Xuan has to be able to control the Poison, or else the entire continent will be!"
As the head of the Poison Hall, no one had been able to stop her, and every single one of her movements carried an aura of invincibility. Yet, as soon as she walked up to Zhang shi, she kneeled down and allowed him to touch her, as if she was a little girl …
If they could not control over, the Xuan of the Zhang Yu Sect, the Zhang Master would be, the Yu would Zhang would and the world, Zhang Xuan! Zhang Zhang Xuan Shi, and was, and.
"Find a way to rope him in, or else … destroy him!"
With a grim expression, Ren Qingyuan sent a telepathic message to the Nine Star master teachers.
Geniuses were a valuable asset to mankind, but obedient geniuses were good geniuses. Disobedient geniuses … were a calamity!
In the tens of thousands of years that Mingshi Tang had ruled over the continent, countless geniuses had appeared. Due to certain circumstances, many of them had degenerated into demons. As such, there were only two paths that they could take. First, persuade them to submit to Mingshi Tang's control and management. Second, kill them.
To be able to guard the continent for tens of thousands of years and keep the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe at bay, Mingshi Tang was not a benevolent person. He had always been decisive in his actions.
Elder Qu and the others nodded in agreement.
After issuing those instructions, Ren Qingyuan looked down and waved his hand grandly. There was a hint of consolation in his voice.
"Zhang Xuan, the fact that you were able to advance from a 1-star master teacher to an 8-star master teacher means that you have deep feelings for Mingshi Tang. As long as you surrender and allow the Zhang clan, the Glacier Plain Court, and the Sanctum of Sages to punish you, I can guarantee that you won't die. You will still have a chance to become a master teacher in the future. If you continue to resist, not only will you be unable to live, your student might even die trying to save you!
"The Poison Temple and the Innate Poison Body might be powerful, but Mingshi Tang's tens of thousands of years of history isn't all he has up his sleeves!"
"Pavilion Master Ren …"
Hearing Ren Qingyuan guarantee that Zhang Xuan would not die, Zhang Wuheng and You Ruoxin turned to look at him anxiously.
But before they could finish their words, Ren Qingyuan interjected, "I know what you want to say, but Mingshi Tang has his own considerations. If he agrees to it, I'll give you a satisfactory answer!"
"Yes!"
Hearing those words, even though the duo was reluctant, they still nodded in agreement.
"How about it? I'll give you ten minutes to think about it! "
Ren Qingyuan turned to look at Zhang Xuan.
"Allow them to do as they please?"
Knowing what the other party was thinking, Zhang Xuan looked at them calmly and asked, "How will they deal with me?"
"You might have caused a huge uproar, but no one has died, so it's not irreparable. Since I have personally guaranteed it, I believe that they will give me face!"
Ren Qingyuan nodded in response.
"That's true. Since you have spoken, they won't dare do anything to me. However, what I am curious about is how Mingshi Tang will deal with me?"
Zhang Xuan chuckled softly.
To be honest, he had gone easy on the Zhang clan, the Glacier Plain Court, and the Sanctum of Sages. As long as Mingshi Tang stood by his side, they would not dare do anything to him. At the very most, he would just have to repair the damaged formations and rebuild the buildings. Then, he would surely be able to obtain their forgiveness …
More importantly, Mingshi Tang was the key.
In the past, Zhang Xuan might have thought nothing of Zhang Xuan, thinking that Zhang Xuan was just a genius. However, given that the head of the Poison Temple was a student, he had become an uncertain variable. As the ruler of the Poison Temple, the last thing he wanted to see was a situation that he could not control.
So, the reason why Zhang Xuan said that he would continue to be a master teacher was a lie. His motive was to gain complete control over Zhang Xuan so as to prevent any unforeseen circumstances from happening.
"As a genius, Mingshi Tang will do his best to protect you. He will also provide you with the best cultivation resources so that you can raise your cultivation as quickly as possible. However, the prerequisite is that you have to imprint your soul onto the Pavilion Master Token!"
Ren Qingyuan flicked his wrist, and a token appeared in his palm.
It was roughly the same size as the Sanctum Head Token of the Sanctum of Sages, but it felt as if it would disappear into space at any moment.
Even with the Eye of Insight, Zhang Xuan was unable to tell what tier it was.
"This is an artifact that Kong Shi left behind after founding Mingshi Tang. Other than the true pavilion master, the deputy pavilion masters are only able to wield a tenth of its might. Even so, it's more than sufficient to deal with any problem. With this artifact, you will be invincible among those beneath Ancient Sage! "
Ren Qingyuan said as he stroked the Pavilion Master Token lightly with his zhenqi.
Everyone immediately felt a heavy pressure weighing down on them, causing their souls to tremble in fear.
