Are you for real?
Who is he? He is the clan head of the number one clan in Tianwu Kingdom, a 3-star formation master, and a Half-Zhizun expert. Anyone in the Thirteen Kingdoms would have to bow respectfully to him, not daring to even breathe loudly!
Yet, not only did this fellow beat up his son and elders, he even came here to demand justice...
The heck!
I should be the one to settle scores with you. Why are you here to settle scores with me?
Liu fellow, I won't let you off so easily!
Do you really think that our Lin Clan is a pushover?
Let me tell you, our Lin Clan has never been afraid of anyone!
Since you want to court death, I'll grant you your wish.
Just as he was about to head out to meet this Liu Cheng to see what kind of backing he had, a voice resounded throughout the entire capital.
"Head of the Lin Clan, hurry up and apologize, or else don't blame me for being impolite!"
Filled with rage, the voice was as though a sudden clap of thunder.
"The heck!"
"Who is that? How dare he create a ruckus in the Lin Clan? Is he insane? "
"Impolite to the Lin Clan... What's going on?"
The voice reverberated in the surroundings, leaving everyone dumbfounded.
To openly challenge the Lin Clan?
Who is so daring?
"Isn't his face a little too big?"
"Impolite to us? Isn't he afraid of biting his tongue? "
"Courting death..."
Amidst the commotion outside, the Lin Clan's main hall was in an uproar. All of the elders in the room had reddened eyes, and they were on the verge of fainting from anger.
Ever since the rise of the Lin Clan, no one had dared to insult them in such a manner!
Isn't a mere physician a little too gutsy?
"Damn it! Elders, follow me and kill this thing that doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth! "
Bellowing furiously, Lin Ruotian walked out. However, before he could get far, he suddenly recalled something and turned to look at the Great Herb King and Hall Master Liao Xun.
"Hall Master Liao, Great Herb King... I might have to trouble the both of you with something!"
"Un?" The duo turned to look at him.
"My son and Ji Clan gongzi were injured by Liu Cheng's student, and they were poisoned. Thus, I suspect that his student is a poison master! Against a poison master... Even a Half-Zhizun expert like me will find it difficult to deal with him. I hope that Hall Master Liao Xun can help! "
"Poison master? If that's the case, I would definitely know who he is... Most likely, he is just a fellow who learned the art of Cat Poison! "
Division Head Liao nodded as he waved his hand nonchalantly. "Forget it. Just leave this little ant to me. He's nothing! "
If the other party was truly a poison master, as the head of the Poison Temple, he would surely recognize him!
Since he had never heard of it before, it meant that it was nothing at all.
"Many thanks!"
Lin Ruotian's eyes lit up as he nodded his head.
What he was most worried about was not that Liu Cheng, but this student who used poison. Even Physician Mu Hong was unable to treat the poison in Lin Lang's body. From this, one could see just how terrifying it was! He knew nothing about poison. If he really encountered it, it would be extremely troublesome!
Now that the Temple Master of the Poison Temple was willing to help, there was nothing to worry about.
"Let's go!"
With Zhang Xuan's assurance, Zhang Xuan led the elders out of the room without any hesitation. Liao Xun, the First Elder, Ji Feng, and the others quickly followed suit.
…
Rewind time to an hour ago.
Stretching, Zhang Xuan pushed open the door and walked out of the kingdom's book collection vault.
After more than two hours of hard work, he finally collected all the books into the library.
Due to the speed at which he collected them, Zhang Xuan felt a little dizzy.
It was fortunate that his cultivation had improved significantly recently, and the nourishment from the Celestial Master Teacher had strengthened his soul significantly. Otherwise, given the speed at which he was collecting the books, he would have fainted from the violent tremors before he could even collect half of them.
"I still lack the books on the Physician Guild and the Formation Master Guild... I should find some time to finish reading all of these books before using the golden page!"
Muttering to himself, Zhang Xuan wasn't in a hurry.
The golden page was a one-time use item, so he couldn't use it easily. No matter what, he had to collect more books to maximize its effectiveness.
"Liu laoshi!"
The moment Zhang Xuan walked out of the door, Lu Chong, who had been waiting by the side, walked up and clasped his fist respectfully.
Mo Tianxue and Mo Yu hadn't left yet either.
It wasn't that they didn't want to leave, but they didn't dare to. If they were to leave, what would happen to the fellows lying on the floor?
"Why haven't you sent him back yet?"
Seeing that the Third Elder was still convulsing on the floor, Zhang Xuan was taken aback.
Even though the royal physicians in the royal palace had already treated him, such simple treatment could only control the severity of his injuries. It was impossible to treat him fully.
"Send him back?" Mo Tianxue scratched his head.
You didn't tell us how to deal with him, so we really didn't know what to do!
If we were to send him back, it would be equivalent to declaring war with the Lin Clan.
"Un! We can't possibly allow them to die here! " Shaking his head nonchalantly, Zhang Xuan turned to Lu Chong and said, "This time, it's time for you to tell us about your enemy!"
Previously, he had specially asked this fellow, but fearing that he would implicate him, he gave a vague answer. Thus, it was impossible for him to tell the truth. Now that he had bumped into the other party, he should be able to tell him the truth!
Upon hearing the question, Mo Tianxue and Mo Yu couldn't help but turn to look at Lu Chong. They wanted to know what was wrong with this fellow to dare to beat up the young master of the Lin Clan!
"Yes!"
Since his teacher had done so much for him, Lu Chong knew that there was no point in hiding the truth anymore. Thus, he nodded his head and said, "Actually, my name is not Lu Chong but Qu Chong. I am the young master of Tianwu Kingdom's Qu Clan..."
"Qu Clan? The Qu Clan that was wiped out two years ago with 137 members? There are still... descendants alive? "Mo Tianxue and Mo Yu stared at one another in astonishment.
"Yes, I am still alive..." Lu Chong's eyes reddened, and he gritted his teeth tightly.
"You know about this matter?" Zhang Xuan frowned.
Could it be that the royal family was colluding with him to conceal the truth?
"We know about it, but we had no choice either. It was Lin Lang's elder sister, Crown Princess Consort Lin Long, who gave the order personally. A Zhizun realm expert made a move, and the entire clan was wiped out!"
At this point, the usually composed emperor took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes. "There were elders and children among them as well. After the incident, I went to take a look personally, and not a single one of them was left alive. They were all killed in a single move!"
Hearing the other party's words, Lu Chong felt as if he was reliving that day two years ago. Bean-sized tears welled up in his eyes, threatening to fall at any moment.
He was only seventeen this year, and he was only fifteen two years ago!
Seeing the corpses of his parents and kin lying before him at the age of fifteen, one could imagine the pain and sorrow he felt.
"Why?"
Narrowing his eyes, Zhang Xuan felt a surge of fury rising from his glabella.
Even though he had never experienced such grief before, he could understand the despair and grief his student felt back then.
If not for that, it was impossible for a fifteen-year-old youngster to kneel in the academy for several days straight just to learn how to exact vengeance!
Also, it was impossible for him to survive the torment of the Poison Body and reach Zongshi realm intermediate stage in just a few days!
"I heard that Lin Lang fell in love with the young mistress of the Qu Clan, Qu Ling. However, the latter refused to submit to him, and it seems like she even injured him... His injuries are similar to the Third Elder's, and that's why Lin Long flew into a rage and sent her men to deal with him!" Mo Tianxue said.
"Un..."
Looking at his taciturn student, Zhang Xuan reconstructed the entire story in his mind.
Most likely, Lin Lang fell in love with Qu Ling and tried to force himself on her. In the end, the latter accidentally injured his manhood, causing him to lose his virginity.
Thus, Lin Long flew into a rage and sent a Zhizun realm expert to deal with him personally...
"Even though the fault lies with them, they still want to vent their anger on others, even at the cost of countless lives?" Zhang Xuan's face darkened.
This was the first time he was so enraged since his reincarnation.
Snatching a woman from a commoner, and after failing to do so, they decided to wipe out the entire family. Who gave them the guts to do such a thing?
"Teacher, please redress my grievances!" Clenching his fists tightly, Lu Chong kneeled onto the floor and his body trembled uncontrollably.
"Don't worry, since I know of this matter, I'll definitely redress your grievances!" Zhang Xuan's face darkened, and his eyes burned with fury. Gesturing grandly, he said, "Let's go!"
After saying that, he followed behind the Third Elder and the others who had just been sent away.
"Guild Leader Liu, you... What are you going to do?"
Seeing the other party leave without saying a word, Mo Tianxue couldn't help but ask. Mo Yu also turned to look at him.
"Nothing much, I'm just going to redress Lu Chong's grievances!" With his hands behind his back, Zhang Xuan's impassive voice sounded.
He couldn't care less about other matters, but the Lin Clan had killed 137 members of Lu Chong's family. He had to redress their grievances and let everyone know!
I, Zhang Xuan's student...
Can't be bullied!
...
"You... What did you say? Teacher brought Lu Chong to the entrance of the Lin Clan and scolded them? "
In Tianwu Academy's Liu laoshi's classroom, Mu Xueqing stared at Meng Tao with widened eyes in disbelief.
The Lin Clan was a massive clan, and even her father had to tread carefully around them. Yet, her teacher actually went to the entrance of the Lin Clan and scolded them... Was this for real?
Her teacher had always been a composed person, so why would he do such a childish thing?
"Didn't Lu Chong say that he wanted to exact vengeance? Teacher instructed me to gather more people to keep tabs on the happenings in the capital, and this is what someone told me just now... "
Meng Tao said, "It's because of my father, so it can't be wrong..."
"Vengeance? Could it be that Lu Chong's enemy is... the Lin Clan? "
It was no wonder this fellow would rather pretend to be mute than speak. With such an enemy, she wouldn't dare to speak either!
An enemy of this level was more fearsome than facing the entire Tianwu Kingdom...
Mu Xueqing felt as though she was going insane.
"This won't do. Teacher is in danger, how can I stand by idly?"
After recovering from her shock, Mu Xueqing clenched her fists tightly, and determination flashed across her eyes.
As a student, how could she stand by idly when her teacher was in danger?
Others might be able to do so, but she, Mu Xueqing, couldn't!
"Senior, we'll go as well!"
"Senior, bring us along! Teacher has done us a huge favor, and we can't possibly wait here idly after learning that he's in danger!"
...
Before Mu Xueqing could finish her words, a huge group of students immediately chimed in.
Even though they hadn't spent much time with Liu laoshi, their teacher's sincerity toward them left them in awe.
