"Let them in!"
Knowing that the day had finally come, Zhang Xuan instructed.
"Yes!" The guard hurriedly left the room.
"The Luo Clan sure doesn't know what's good for them. Did they think that the humiliation they suffered the previous time around wasn't enough?"
"I don't know either. I heard that they have a clan head who has comprehended the Spatial Quintessence of Sealing, and they're here to avenge their humiliation!"
"Avenge their humiliation? Humph, how arrogant of them! That clan head is called Luo Tianya, right? What right does he have to compete with our clan head? "
"He's just a member of the side family who has comprehended the Spatial Quintessence of Sealing, but he dares to challenge our clan head. We'll definitely beat him up so badly that he won't be able to find his bearings anymore! "
…
Discussions could be heard in the surroundings.
Hearing how the crowd was intentionally belittling Luo Tianya and elevating him, Zhang Xuan suddenly felt incredibly exhausted.
If these people knew that the clan head of the Luo Clan was him as well, would they faint from shock as well?
How was he supposed to explain the situation so that the two clans wouldn't come to blows?
If he were to tell the Luo Clan that he was Luo Tianya, the Luo Clan might very well think that he was toying with them a second time after humiliating them once …
If he were to tell the Zhang clan that he was Luo Tianya and that the Luo Clan's bloodline purity was only '9', it would be difficult for them to explain themselves. Perhaps, they might even think that his father was Miss Dong!
How frustrating!
Sigh, everyone wants to be outstanding, but what good does it do to be outstanding?
It's just a matter of time before I die!
"You should negotiate with the Luo Clan first. I just happened to have some insights, and I need to go into seclusion to cultivate …"
Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment, but there was no better way for him to resolve the matter at the moment.
As long as he and Luo Tianya weren't around, there was no way they would cause a ruckus.
It would only be more troublesome if they stayed behind.
"Alright then …"
Heung Kensei was taken aback for a moment before nodding in agreement.
The greatest conflict between the Zhang Clan and the Luo Clan was the public annulment of the engagement. As long as the culprit went into hiding and didn't provoke the other party, it would indeed alleviate the tension between them.
After getting permission, Zhang Xuan didn't say anything else. He brought Lozosy back to his residence.
After arranging for the girl to rest in the side room, he entered the folded space.
Due to his deep understanding of space, the dimension before him had been modified to become even more stable and spacious. Its diameter had already reached several hundred li, and there were all kinds of buildings erected around it, making it look like a massive city.
Finding an empty space, Zhang Xuan sat down casually. With a thought, a massive corpse fell to the ground, crushing the bluestone floor and raising a cloud of dust.
The Otherworldly Demon Ancient Sage whom he had killed.
It would be extremely difficult to store the Dragonbone Divine Spear into a storage ring, but it was still possible to take it out without the help of the Dragonbone Divine Spear.
He had already expended the three droplets of Kong Shi's blood essence, the golden page, and Vicious was in a deep slumber. He had no means of preserving his life at all, so he had to find a way to forge this thing into a Soulless Metal Humanoid as soon as possible!
Otherwise, if they were to encounter danger, they would really not know what to do.
"Let's see if we can enter first!"
With a thought, Zhang Xuan drew his soul out from his glabella.
Even though the Otherworldly Demon Ancient Sage was already dead, the corpse still emanated a heavy pressure. Before Zhang Xuan could even get close to it, he could already feel a strong gust of wind assaulting him.
"It's powerful!"
Zhang Xuan thought grimly.
His soul had been through many lightning tribulations, and its resilience had reached an unimaginable level. Even Great Sage experts would find it difficult to inflict damage on it. Yet, at this moment, he was unable to even get close to a corpse. This was way too fearsome!
Zhang Xuan shook his head. He tried a few more times, but to no avail.
If he wanted to forge the corpse into a Soulless Metal Humanoid, he would first have to enter the corpse with his soul. Given how difficult it was for him to even approach it, how could he possibly assimilate it?
"It seems like I'll have to raise the prowess of my soul as soon as possible. If I can achieve a breakthrough to Great Sage with my soul, I might just be able to make use of the corpse! "
Returning to his physical body, Zhang Xuan quickly went through the most pressing matters in his mind.
"First, I have to find the method left behind by Kong Shi and achieve a breakthrough to Great Sage! Second, I have to continue accepting students to earn their gratitude and forge a golden page! Third, I have to make a breakthrough in my soul cultivation and forge the corpse! "
Even though he knew that the golden page was extremely powerful, he still did not think that it would be able to kill an Ancient Sage with a single page.
Ancient Sages were the epitome of invincibility in the hearts of all cultivators. Without reaching the required level, putting aside fighting, they would not even be able to withstand a single thought from an Ancient Sage.
Yet … the golden page was able to crush an Ancient Sage so easily …
It seemed like he would have to find a way to earn the gratitude of the other party as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if he were to encounter the group that had come to capture Zhao Ya, he would really be at his wit's end!
"The first and second requirements aren't too easy, but the third one … I should be able to do it!"
He had no idea what was going on in Mingshi Tang's headquarters at the moment, so he did not have any means to deal with them. If he were to encounter those fellows who had submitted to the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, he would not even be able to escape, let alone find the method left behind by Kong Shi.
As for the second requirement, a student had to choose his teacher, and a teacher had to choose his student. Given his current situation, he could not just accept anyone as his student.
Even if they were not his direct disciples, it would not be easy for them to become Zhang Xuan's student.
It was not easy to find a formidable teacher, but it was the same for powerful students.
As such, even though Zhang Xuan wanted to form the golden page, he knew that it would not be that easy.
After much thought, he concluded that the third requirement was the only one that he could accomplish in the short term.
Understanding this, Zhang Xuan left the Myriad Anthive Nest and walked out of the residence. He found an elder and said, "Bring me to the Zhang Clan's library!"
As the head of the Zhang Clan, he wielded unparalleled authority, allowing him to enter and exit the library as he pleased.
Four hours later, Zhang Xuan walked out of the library.
Zhang Xuan rubbed his glabella in disappointment.
While the Zhang clan was the number one Sage Clan on the Master Teacher Continent, they did not have many cultivation techniques related to the soul. Even though they had fused quite a few of them, they were still unable to achieve a breakthrough to Heaven's Path realm.
In other words, he was still unable to cultivate for the time being.
"How are things with the Luo Clan?"
The elder who had brought him here had yet to leave. Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment before asking.
"Reporting to Clan Chief, the Luo Clan wanted to challenge you to a duel, but their Clan Chief, Luo Tianya, had an urgent matter to attend to, so he didn't follow them here. Thus, the clan arranged for them to stay in the guest room!"
The elder replied.
"Un. That's good!"
Seeing that there was no conflict in his absence, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. He turned to the Luo Clan and asked, "Are there any guilds or powers in the vicinity of the Zhang clan that specialize in soul attacks?"
"Guilds that specialize in soul attacks?"
The elder pondered for a moment before replying, "The headquarters of the Terpsichore Guild is located in Terpsichore City, which is less than twenty thousand li away from here. They specialize in the study of souls, and they have a deep understanding of it. However, the one who has the deepest understanding of souls is the Jiang Clan, one of the Three Premier Clans. Their founder has comprehended the Soul Quintessence … It's only half a day's journey away from the Zhang clan! "
