Even Mo Yu's eyebrows twitched uncontrollably, and she nearly went on a rampage.
She already felt aggrieved that she had come here personally, but this fellow...
His attitude was nonchalant!
When others met for the first time, they would at the very least greet Princess Mo Yu with 'Pleased to meet you' or 'Pleased to meet you'. Yet, he replied with 'What are you doing here'...
Do I know you very well?
If not for my father's instructions, do you think that I would have come here?
She had seen impolite people, but she had never seen someone as impolite as him!
Mo Yu's chest heaved up and down, and she gritted her teeth furiously.
Recalling her father's instructions, she felt even more stifled. She could only suppress her anger.
The reason why her father insisted for her to come in advance to befriend this Liu laoshi was simple... for them to get to know one another, and it would be best if they could develop a relationship!
This way, she would be able to benefit greatly.
The competition within the royal family was cruel. Even though Mo Hongyi's surname was Mo, he wasn't related to the royal family. On top of that, he was on the verge of becoming a 2-star master teacher. On top of that, he possessed incredible talent. If he were to truly vie for the throne, the crown prince and princes wouldn't be a match for him.
Perhaps, only she, as a master teacher, would be able to stand against him.
Thus, Emperor Mo Tianxue intended to groom Mo Yu so that she could become the empress of a generation and stand against Mo Hongyi... This way, her future husband would be of great importance.
The two most famous youngsters in the capital were none other than Master Teacher Zhang Xuan and this Liu laoshi.
Master Teacher Zhang Xuan was a powerful and influential figure, and he had the backing of a formidable teacher. Even if Mo Yu were to form a relationship with him in the future, it would be difficult for her to control him.
Liu laoshi, on the other hand, was different.
Her father had sent someone to investigate him, and due to his physical condition, he was unable to take the master teacher examination... Furthermore, his cultivation realm was only at Tongxuan realm primary stage, which wasn't too high.
Usually, it was impossible for such a person to be a match for Mo Yu. However, no one could have imagined that he would be so skilled in the Way of Medicine that he became the guild leader of the Physician Guild.
Even though physicians weren't an occupation that specialized in combat, they were one of the occupations that no one dared to offend. After all, no one could guarantee that they wouldn't fall sick.
If this person were to really form a relationship with Mo Yu, her throne would be secured. Even Mo Hongyi would have to think twice before trying to snatch it from her.
It was due to this that Mo Yu suppressed her displeasure and specially came over to invite Zhang Xuan over. She thought that Zhang Xuan would be overwhelmed by the favor and would dance in joy, but who could have thought that Zhang Xuan would be so nonchalant?
She was a princess, a master teacher...
What kind of attitude was this?
He gritted his teeth and snorted.
When he mentioned his father, he thought that no matter how arrogant Liu Cheng was, he would at least have some misgivings. However, Liu Cheng frowned and said, "Your father? Why is he looking for me? I still have something to do. I don't have much time! "
As for the so-called king of the kingdom, Zhang Xuan didn't care.
As a 2-star master teacher, Zhang Xuan did have the right to be arrogant.
However, in the ears of Princess Mo Yu, she felt like she was going crazy.
Even if you are the guild leader of the Physician Guild, you are still lacking in terms of cultivation, so you are just a figurehead. What is there to be arrogant about?
He did not have much time to see his father …
To be so arrogant, why don't you go and die...
Zhao Wuxing and Liu Changyan were on the verge of vomiting blood.
Initially, she thought that the lack of respect shown to the princess was enough to render her speechless. She did not expect to hear that His Majesty did not seem to care about it either …
By doing this, are you not afraid of angering Princess Mo Yu and being slapped to death?
"Royal Father has come all the way here. Isn't it a little inappropriate for you to reject him like this?" Mo Yu clenched her teeth and harrumphed.
"Ah … Alright then, bring me over!" Zhang Xuan waved his hands casually.
It wasn't that he wanted to anger this proud princess, but that they had traveled from the Beast Hall to the Red Lotus City, and they were too familiar with each other. Thus, when she came over to pay her respects, he didn't notice Liu laoshi's identity.
However, from the looks of it now, it seemed like Mingshi Tang's Human Skin Mask was extremely formidable, and his fake identity was flawless. Even she wasn't able to see through his disguise.
"Hmph!"
Flinging her sleeves, Mo Yu walked forward.
Watching the duo leave, Zhao Wuxing and Liu Changyan stared at one another.
Wasn't that fellow just an ordinary teacher? How did he manage to get the emperor to pay a visit to him personally and infuriate Princess Mo Yu to such an extent?
Putting aside a teacher, even Principal Xie didn't have such a privilege.
"Let's go and take a look …"
Unable to suppress their curiosity, the duo hurried over.
…
Parked outside the academy was a massive carriage. Before Zhang Xuan and the others could reach it, the yellow curtains fluttered, and a middle-aged man with an imposing aura walked out.
This person's eyes were sharp as lightning, and his aura was reminiscent of a dragon. Even from a distance, one could already feel an immense pressure from him. He was a Zongshi realm pinnacle expert, just a step away from reaching Half-Zhizun.
"You must be Guild Leader Liu …"
Mo Tianxue walked forward with a smile.
As he walked, he observed the other party carefully.
A moment later, a hint of praise appeared in his eyes.
As a person of high standing, he carried an innate pressure that made even an expert of the same cultivation realm flustered.
Despite his young age, the young man before him was calm and composed, and there wasn't the slightest hint of nervousness in him. Just this mental fortitude alone was something that no ordinary person could match up to.
As expected of the expert who solved nineteen questions on the Wall of Dilemma. His courage and wisdom far exceeded that of an ordinary person.
"May I know the reason why His Majesty is looking for me?" Zhang Xuan asked doubtfully.
"Guild Leader Liu has solved nineteen questions on the Wall of Dilemma consecutively, and I have always admired him. I happen to be passing by here today, so I would like to invite you to the royal palace so that I can show my hospitality to you! "
Mo Tianxue said.
"Royal palace?" Zhang Xuan shook his head. "My apologies, I still have matters to attend to at the Apothecary Guild, so I might not be able to make it. I appreciate your goodwill!"
He still had to head to the Apothecary Guild to look for medicinal herbs harnessing spiritual energy before returning to the residence to impart battle techniques to Zhao Ya. Thus, he didn't have the time to head to the royal palace.
"You rejected His Majesty's invitation?"
Zhao Wuxing and Liu Changyan had just arrived when they heard those words. They immediately cowered in fear.
This Liu laoshi was way too vicious!
Not only did he disrespect Princess Mo Yu, he even rejected His Majesty's invitation...
"Since Guild Leader Liu has matters to attend to, I won't disturb you. This is a token of my appreciation, please accept it!"
Hearing the other party's rejection, Mo Tianxue didn't fly into a rage. Instead, he smiled. A eunuch walked up and passed a jade box over.
Even though the Physician Guild was located in the capital, as the guild leader, Mo Tianxue was already qualified to be treated as an equal.
Mo Tianxue beckoned.
The eunuch opened the jade box, and a concentrated spiritual energy gushed into the room, causing one's bloodline to surge in excitement.
Placed within the jade box was a walnut-sized transparent stone. Reflecting the sunlight, it seemed as resplendent as a diamond.
"Spirit stone?"
"It's a spirit stone!"
Upon seeing this object, Zhao Wuxing and Liu Changyan's bodies trembled, and a flame lit up in their eyes.
Spirit stone was a unique ore that was rarely seen even in Conferred Kingdoms. It was produced in places where spiritual energy gathered, and every single one of them was incomparably valuable. It was an invaluable treasure used by cultivators to cultivate.
It was said that spirit stones were only used by the upper echelons of the Conferred Kingdom, and even 2-star master teachers couldn't obtain a single one of them. To think that the emperor would take one out casually and give it to Liu laoshi!
This gift was simply too huge!
If they were in Liu laoshi's shoes, they would have been overwhelmed with excitement.
They hurriedly turned to look at Liu laoshi... only to see an indifferent expression on the latter's face.
"No wonder... Just Liu laoshi's calmness is truly admirable!"
Upon seeing this sight, the duo couldn't help but prostrate themselves in admiration.
That was a spirit stone! There was no cultivator who wouldn't feel their breathing hastening upon seeing it. Just this fact alone made Liu laoshi worthy of the emperor treating him with such respect...
Just as they were thinking that there was indeed a difference between humans, the young man standing not too far away looked at them with a perplexed expression, "What's this?"
Putong!
The duo's vision darkened, and they were on the verge of tears.
It was just a moment ago that they were filled with admiration for Liu laoshi, but in the end... they didn't even know him!
What a waste of their emotions...
"Cough cough!"
The arrogant Mo Tianxue, who was hoping to see Zhang Xuan shocked, nearly choked on his saliva. He was speechless.
Even if he hadn't seen a spirit stone before, he should have at least heard of it!
This Guild Leader Liu was an expert in the Way of Medicine, but... he hadn't even heard of it before...
Even though Zhang Xuan had read quite a few books in Mingshi Tang, these books hadn't fused with his memories yet. They would only appear when he was searching through them. Even if he did, he wouldn't be able to recall them clearly.
It was just like the search engines in his previous life. They could search for a lot of knowledge, allowing one to understand things that one didn't know... However, the prerequisite was that one had to know what they were searching for in advance. Otherwise, there was nothing he could do!
In other words, even though he could browse through the knowledge in the Library of Heaven's Path, it didn't belong to him.
This was the situation he was in right now. No matter how many books he had in his head, he didn't know where to start from.
"This is a spirit stone, and it contains concentrated spiritual energy. It can allow one to cultivate faster..."
Mo Tianxue explained.
"Spirit stone?"
Knowing the name, a book immediately appeared in the Library of Heaven's Path and Zhang Xuan casually flipped it open.
As expected, he saw the detailed description: Spirit stone is an ore formed by the accumulation of spiritual energy. It contains concentrated spiritual energy, and when used for cultivation, it can solve the problem of lacking spiritual energy in the air...
"This..."
Blinking his eyes, Zhang Xuan's face flushed in embarrassment.
It just so happened that he was looking for pills with concentrated spiritual energy. With this, why would he need to go to the Apothecary Guild?
He could just absorb the spiritual energy within and reach Zongshi realm pinnacle!
"Thank you!"
Knowing how valuable this object was, before the other party could finish his introduction, Zhang Xuan grabbed it and kept it in his storage ring.
"..."
Seeing how nonchalant the other party was just a moment ago, and in the next moment, he took it away, as though fearing that someone else would snatch it from him, Mo Tianxue and Mo Yu were frenzied.
The heck, do you have to change so quickly?
Just as they were wondering if the other party was suffering from schizophrenia, the young man before them placed his hands behind his back and gazed at the sky. His gaze was deep and profound, as though he was an otherworldly expert.
"I won't take anything from you for free. How about this, I can treat you once for free!"
"..." Mo Tianxue and Mo Yu.
"..." Zhao Wuxing and Liu Changyan.
