"Shrouding Ethereal City?"
Zhang Xuan lowered his head to take a closer look. The entire city beneath him seemed to be hidden in the void, and the surrounding mountain ranges and clouds made it seem like a maze.
If there wasn't a specific path, one would have to expend an unimaginable amount of effort to enter it.
"What a formidable formation!" Zhang Xuan remarked.
"Just like the formation of the Zhang family, it's meant to protect the Zhang family as well. It harnesses spatial arts, so it's easy to get lost in it. Of course, for people of our caliber, it's nothing much at all … "
With a smile, Heung Kensei tapped his finger lightly, and a mirror immediately materialized before Zhang Xuan. Looking through the mirror, one could clearly see the correct path in the formation. As long as one followed the path forward, one would be able to enter the formation easily.
This kind of formation was constantly changing, making it hard for one to discern its pattern. To be able to find the correct path with a single glance, it seemed like this father of his was quite skilled in formations as well.
"Are the guests of the Zhang family up ahead?"
A moment later, a hearty chuckle sounded, and a few figures appeared in the air.
The one leading the group was the First Elder, Luo Qingchen.
"Indeed!"
Heung Kensei flew out, and Zhang Xuan and the others followed closely behind him.
"The Luo Clan has already prepared a guest room for you. We await your arrival!"
Luo Qingchen chuckled as he led the way.
The others quickly followed behind him, and the other members of the Zhang family also followed closely behind on their aerial saint beasts.
The guest room prepared by the Luo Clan was a massive manor. It was so spacious that even with forty saint beasts in it, it didn't feel cramped at all.
"Rest for a day. I'll gather all of the elders of the clan and the grand elders who are in seclusion, and we'll discuss the wedding tomorrow. The marriage between our two clans is a huge matter, so we mustn't be careless about it!"
Luo Qingchen said with a smile.
"You're right, First Elder!" Heung Kensei nodded in agreement.
"Then, I'll be troubling you all to stay here for the time being …" Luo Qingchen instructed the elders to take care of everyone's daily needs before backing out of the room.
"So, this is Lozosy's clan?"
The layout of the guest room was very exquisite. All kinds of formations were combined together to form a huge Spirit Gathering Formation. To cultivators, it was definitely a paradise.
Walking slowly, Zhang Xuan's heart was filled with excitement.
Along the way, he had seen many girls, and many of them had feelings for him. However, he only had a special feeling for this girl. Moreover, as time passed, his feelings were like old wine, getting stronger and stronger. It was sweet and fragrant, making people intoxicated and difficult to part with.
"Why? Can't you wait until tomorrow?"
Noticing that Zhang Xuan was wandering around the courtyard, Sword Saint Meng walked up to him with a smile.
With her strength, she could naturally see that her son, who didn't panic even when surrounded by so many Mingshi Tang experts, was already restless.
"How could that be … I was just looking around …" Zhang Xuan's face reddened in embarrassment.
"Don't worry, the marriage between the Zhang and Luo families is inevitable, so there's no need to worry. Besides, even without the marriage agreement, as long as it's a girl you like, I'll still help you win her back! "Sword Saint Meng waved her hand majestically.
Knowing that his mother was really capable of doing such a thing, Zhang Xuan smiled awkwardly. Just as he was about to speak, the elder in charge of taking care of them suddenly walked over and said, "Clan Head Zhang, Young Master Xuanqing wishes to meet you!"
"Hurry up and bring me over!"
Hearing that Luo Xuanqing was in the Zhang Clan, Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.
He had thought that the other party was still in the Sanctum of Sages, but to think that the other party had already returned.
His younger sister was about to get married, so it was only right for him to return to the Zhang Clan as soon as possible.
Following behind the elder, they soon arrived at the main hall. As expected, Luo Xuanqing was seated there with a teacup in his hand. It was hard to tell what he was thinking about, but upon seeing Zhang Xuan, he quickly stood up and clasped his fist. "Luo Xuanqing pays respect to Clan Head Zhang and the sanctum head of the Sanctum of Sages!"
"Brother Luo, you're being too polite!"
Seeing how the other party was so respectful, Zhang Xuan hurriedly stepped forward.
Luo Xuanqing raised his head to look at the young man before him, and a myriad of emotions welled up in his eyes.
All along, he had thought that the other party was just an ordinary person, and due to their similar personalities, he had decided to befriend the other party. However, when he found out that the other party had deceived his younger sister, he flew into a rage and wanted to pummel the other party to death … But who could have thought that in the blink of an eye, not only would the other party become the young prodigy of the Zhang Clan, he would even become the sanctum head of the Sanctum of Sages, and every single one of his disciples would become ridiculously powerful …
He had confirmed the news many times, but he still found it hard to believe.
Initially, when his younger sister had said that this fellow from a backwater place like the Hongyuan Empire was an outstanding individual, he had scoffed at the notion. However, at this very moment, he realized that his younger sister's eye of discernment was indeed extraordinary!
"Your cultivation … is at Dimension Sundering realm pinnacle?"
While Luo Xuanqing was still deep in thought, his eyes suddenly narrowed in astonishment.
A few days ago, when he was pummeling him, the other party was only at Phantasmal Space realm pinnacle. How long had it been since then?
He was already proud of the fact that he was able to reach Dimension Sundering realm primary stage at such a young age. Yet, the young man before him was able to achieve breakthroughs as easily as eating and drinking … Did he have to be so exaggerated?
"I was lucky to achieve a breakthrough …"
Zhang Xuan replied with a smile.
"I was just lucky …"
Luo Xuanqing felt as if he was going to suffer from internal injuries. Every time he asked, that fellow would reply with the same answer … Even if you are trying to fool me, can't you at least give me some dignity?
Would it kill you to say something else?
"I would like to test your strength. May I know if it's possible?"
Luo Xuanqing took a deep breath as he looked at Zhang Xuan intently.
When he first met the other party, the other party was only a Saint 5-dan cultivator, completely unworthy of his notice. Yet, in just three months, the other party had already become stronger than him … Even though he knew that the other party's talent was far greater than his, he still couldn't help but feel a little indignant.
"Sure!"
Zhang Xuan nodded.
He had just achieved a breakthrough, so he was feeling a little itchy. It would be best if the other party was willing to spar with him.
"Let's begin then!"
Without any hesitation, Luo Xuanqing stomped his foot and charged forward. In the blink of an eye, he was already right before Zhang Xuan, and he raised his hand and struck down forcefully.
Huala!
The space around him froze, and the air around him turned viscous.
In just a few short days, he had already made great progress!
"Good move!"
Zhang Xuan chuckled softly as he drove his zhenqi to its limits. Just as he was about to raise his palm to meet the other party's attack, he suddenly froze in midair.
"What's wrong? Don't go easy on me just because I'm not a match for you. Why don't you show me your true strength? "
Seeing how Zhang Xuan had abruptly stopped his zhenqi right after he raised his zhenqi, Luo Xuanqing harrumphed coldly.
He had already guessed that he might not be a match for the other party, but … since this was a duel, he didn't want the other party to go easy on him.
"It's not that I'm going easy on you …"
Zhang Xuan raised his palm as his lips twitched uncontrollably. "It's just that … I used too much strength earlier, and it feels like I'm going to achieve a breakthrough soon …"
Hong long long!
Before Zhang Xuan could finish his words, the sky suddenly darkened, and lightning flashed.
