"Yes!"
Even though the crowd was indignant, they didn't have any better ideas.
If this matter were to blow up, Mingshi Tang of Myriad Kingdom Alliance would surely make a move. Perhaps, before Zhang Xuan could arrive, the headquarter would arrive first, and that would put them in a disadvantageous position.
Huala!
They left as quickly as they came. Seeing that they had all left, Sun Qiang's legs caved in, and he fell to the ground.
As the butler of Master Teacher Yang Xuan, he couldn't allow himself to lose face. However... his cultivation was only at Transcendent Mortal 1-dan. Facing so many experts, he still felt immense pressure.
"You... aren't you afraid of death?"
Recalling the danger from before, Zhao Feiwu couldn't help but step forward.
Even her father wouldn't dare to order so many Consonant Spirit realm experts to scram. Where in the world did this plump butler get his confidence from?
After a long while, Sun Qiang finally recovered from his shock, stood up, and shook his head. "Of course I'm afraid!"
"If you're afraid... then why did you..."
Even Garden Owner Xue was perplexed.
Not only was he afraid, he still dared to say such words?
If Sect Leader Luo Huang had really made a move, he would have been pummeled to death before he could even retaliate.
Even if Zhang Shi were to return and seek justice for him, what use would it be?
He would already be dead!
"I am indebted to the old master. He allowed me to rise from a Zhenqi realm cultivator to where I am today, earning the respect and trust of countless people... As long as I am the butler, I have the right and responsibility to protect the old master's dignity, even if... I have to die!"
Sun Qiang's eyes were filled with determination.
If not for the old master, he would still be a small merchant in a trading firm. How could he possibly have met so many master teachers? How could he possibly have a status that even the princess of the League of Nations wouldn't dare to look down on?
The old master had given him a second life. As a butler, if he couldn't even uphold the old master's dignity, it would be a dereliction of his duty.
This was his conviction, and it was also his determination.
This was precisely the reason why he was able to stand at the forefront fearlessly in times of danger.
It was fine if his cultivation was lacking, but... he mustn't lose his dignity as the butler of a high-ranked master teacher!
"This..."
Zhao Feiwu was filled with admiration.
This fatty looked a little wretched and unreliable. Who would have thought that he would have something that he was determined to believe in.
Moreover … it seemed that the people around Zhang Shi were all weirder than the last, but they were able to unite together without any reservations. There was no conflict or scheming.
Perhaps … this was the so-called charisma.
"The old master you speak of, are you referring to Yang shi? Where is he? "
Zhang Xuan thought as he turned his gaze back to Zhang Xuan.
She had long heard of Yang shi as well. He was Zhang Shi's teacher, but she had never met him before.
"Master has always been elusive. I don't know where he is either!"
Speaking of Yang Xuan, Sun Qiang was filled with admiration.
"I wonder where he is?" Zhao Feiwu was perplexed. "Then... Isn't Zhang Shi participating in the Master Teacher Tournament?"
This was the first time his disciple was participating in a competition between so many great teachers. Could it be that the teacher wouldn't appear?
"This … I don't know either, but … they should come!"
Sun Qiang was taken aback for a moment before nodding his head.
So many people had come to look for Zhang Shi all of a sudden, and it was clear that they harbored malicious intentions. If Yang shi didn't appear, he might really be unable to hold on.
But … old master, where are you?
...
Achoo!
Zhang Xuan rubbed his nose.
Naturally, he didn't know that Ding Hong had already arrived at Myriad Kingdom City, and that he had even beguiled the strongest experts of the fourteen powers to come to his residence to look for him. At this moment, he was standing on the back of an aerial spirit beast. Looking at the buildings below, his eyes grew brighter and brighter.
After half a month of flight, he had finally arrived at Myriad Kingdom City!
"I'm finally back. The Soulrouse Grass is almost ready. I should be able to forge the Soulrouse Incense tonight and wake Lu Chong up!"
As the Soulrouse Grass couldn't be kept in his storage ring, he didn't bring it along. Now that he had been away for nearly fifty days, under Wang Ying's care, it should have matured by now, and he should be able to forge the Soulrouse Incense.
With this, Lu Chong should be able to come back to life, and he would be able to resolve a huge worry in his heart.
Boom!
Not too far away, a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation could be felt, and a powerful aura could be felt.
"He has achieved a breakthrough?"
Turning his head over, Ruohuan gongzi opened his eyes.
At this moment, his eyes were clear, and his aura was reminiscent of a ferocious dragon and a ferocious tiger.
Transcendent Mortal 4-dan Clarifying Turbidity realm pinnacle!
Under Zhang Xuan's guidance and the aid of a middle-tier spirit stone, he managed to reach Transcendent Mortal 4-dan pinnacle within half a month.
"Thank you, Zhang Shi, for your guidance!"
Standing up, Ruohuan gongzi could feel that he had grown much stronger than before, and he clasped his fist in gratitude.
If not for the other party, he might still be at Transcendent Mortal 4-dan primary stage.
"It's my pleasure!"
Zhang Xuan waved his hands casually.
After fusing a surge of his zhenqi with the other party's, the other party's turbid zhenqi had become purer, allowing him to break through several small realms easily.
If he couldn't even do this, he wouldn't be qualified to be called a genius.
"Zhang Shi, your cultivation..." Pavilion Master Kang asked.
Seeing Ruohuan gongzi's improvement over the past few days, Pavilion Master Kang was delighted, but at the same time, he was perplexed.
Since Zhang Shi was able to improve so quickly by offering pointers to others, why didn't he do the same for himself?
At the moment, he was still at Transcendent Mortal 2-dan pinnacle. With his current strength, he would surely be at a disadvantage in the Master Teacher Tournament.
"Don't worry, I'll try my best to reach Yin-Yang realm pinnacle and even Clarifying Turbidity realm before the tournament!"
Knowing what Pavilion Master Kang was worried about, Zhang Xuan waved his hands casually.
He required middle-tier spirit stones to achieve a breakthrough, but he didn't have any at the moment. It would be too difficult for him to achieve a breakthrough just by absorbing the spiritual energy in the air.
Since that was the case, he might as well go to the capital and earn some spirit stones first.
"Un!"
Hearing Zhang Shi's promise, Pavilion Master Kang nodded. Lowering his head, he said, "We're at your residence..."
"Un, I'll be taking my leave here. Don't look for me for the time being. I'll appear during the Master Teacher Tournament!"
Arriving at the entrance of his residence, Zhang Xuan turned around and instructed.
He was intending to head out to gather some middle-tier spirit stones for the next few days, and he would probably appear as Yang shi. Given that he wasn't around often, and these 4-star master teachers were familiar with him, it would be easy for him to expose himself if they were to look for him.
"Alright!"
Thinking that Zhang Xuan was intending to go into seclusion to cultivate, Pavilion Master Kang nodded his head and had the spirit beast descend.
After which, Zhang Xuan leaped off the back of the spirit beast and bade farewell to Pavilion Master Kang and the others.
As soon as he returned to the residence, he saw Sun Qiang rushing up to him.
"Young master!"
Noticing that there was something amiss with the other party's expression, Zhang Xuan asked, "Did anything happen while I was away?"
"The Fleeting Cloud Sect and fourteen other powers came to look for you..."
Sun Qiang recounted the matter to Zhang Xuan.
"Why are they looking for me?" Zhang Xuan frowned.
He had never met these people before, and he didn't even know them. What were they up to?
"The next time they come, inform me in advance..."
Just as Zhang Xuan was thinking about how he could scam some spirit stones from these people, they actually came first. This way, it would save him a lot of trouble.
"Yes!" Seeing that the young master wasn't nervous at all, Sun Qiang heaved a sigh of relief. Turning to Zhang Xuan, he asked, "Young master, may I know where the old master is at the moment and when he will be coming?"
"Teacher?"
Zhang Xuan was taken aback. "Teacher has informed me, and he might be coming in the next few days... Alright, I have something to discuss with Wang Ying. Where is she?"
Zhang Xuan waved his hands casually.
He had to appear as Yang shi in the next few days, so he had to take precautions.
"She's still looking after the Soulrouse Grass. Young master... Are you intending to save Young Master Lu Chong?" Recalling something, Sun Qiang's eyes lit up.
As the butler, he knew that Wang Ying was looking after the Soulrouse Grass. Since the young master was looking for her as soon as he returned, it was likely that he was intending to save Lu Chong.
"Un!" Zhang Xuan nodded his head. "Saving Lu Chong involves his soul, so it requires absolute silence. No one is to disturb him!"
Sun Qiang nodded his head. After which, he turned to look at Zhang Xuan doubtfully, "Right, young master, didn't Zhao Ya xiaojie leave with you? Why isn't she back yet? "
Zhao Ya and Zhang Shi left together, so why was he alone this time around?
"She went somewhere else, and she won't be back anytime soon..."
Zhang Xuan waved his hands casually. Without explaining anything, he walked toward the room where the Soulrouse Grass was grown.
"Teacher!"
Upon entering the room where the Soulrouse Grass was grown, Wang Ying walked up to him.
Zhang Xuan nodded his head and looked at the Soulrouse Grass at the center of the room.
Swaying along with the wind, it had already grown to the height of half a human, and it emanated an intoxicating aura. It felt as though one's soul would be drawn into it with just a glance.
The Soulrouse Grass harnessed soul energy, causing one to feel intoxicated.
"It has been hard on you for the past few days. Go and rest first!"
Seeing that the Soulrouse Grass was able to grow so vigorously without the slightest damage, Wang Ying's contribution was undeniable.
"Un!"
Upon hearing Zhang Xuan's compliment, Wang Ying's face reddened, and he turned around to leave.
"Begin!"
After such a long time, the Soulrouse Grass finally matured. With a thought, Zhang Xuan drew his soul out from his body.
Grabbing the Soulrouse Grass lightly, he drove his zhenqi and began to assimilate it.
In the past, Zhang Xuan would have had to make all kinds of preparations and means to assimilate the Soulrouse Grass. However, after being cleansed by the yin and yang energies, his soul had grown stronger and more corporeal. Even without relying on other means, he was able to assimilate the Soulrouse Grass easily.
Soon, the entire Soulrouse Grass transformed into a flowing pool of liquid.
With a flick of Zhang Xuan's finger, the liquid slowly fused together to form a concentrated fragrance.
Soulrouse Incense!
Upon igniting it, it could awaken a dormant soul and allow it to gather.
"Based on Mo Hunsheng's introduction, in order to awaken Lu Chong, I have to ignite a portion of my soul and fuse it with it!"
In order to enhance the might of the Soulrouse Incense, one had to drive one's soul energy, and this soul energy had to be fused with the incense beforehand before it could be released.
"Split!"
With a grim expression, Zhang Xuan separated a small portion of his soul from his body. Upon seeing this, Zhang Xuan's face paled.
Even though his soul cultivation had reached Transcendent Mortal 4-dan pinnacle, it was still a little too much for him to forcefully separate a portion of his soul.
However, as long as he could save Lu Chong, the sacrifice was worth it.
The separated portion of his soul swiftly fused with the incense, and not too long later, a long incense appeared before Zhang Xuan.
Soulrouse Incense, done!
"Great, let's begin..."
Seeing that the incense was successfully forged, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. Returning his soul to his body, he walked up to Lu Chong.
