Library of Heaven 2 Destiny Eternal

Chapter 97: Opportunity Comes to You

"Go hide in the room first, don't come out unless necessary!"

After instructing Sun Qiang, Zhang Xuan turned around and walked towards the door, opening it.

The people who appeared before him were Clan Leader Liu Tianzheng and a strange young man. The latter was about the same age as himself, with a gloomy look between his brows, and one could tell at a glance that he was not easy to get along with.

However, whether they get along well or not is not of much concern to him. Zhang Xuan clasped his fists and bowed: "If Master Liu still wants to dissuade Liu Mingyue from returning home, you should go find her yourself. It is useless to find me."

Liu Tianzheng shook his head: "Teacher Zhang misunderstood. I didn't come to you for this matter. This friend heard about you and came to visit you to consult you about something."

Zhang Xuan looked puzzled. What could he possibly have that was worthy of others' advice?
After all, he has been very low-key since he started practicing. He hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "Sorry, if it's just a small matter like this, please go back! I'm busy today and may not be free!"

As if he had guessed that he would say this, Liu Tianzheng took out a stack of source tickets from his pocket and handed it over: "Teacher Zhang, don't be in a hurry to refuse. I was wrong to take Mingyue away and hit you today. Now I sincerely apologize to you, and I hope you can understand my heart as a father. This time, I don't know what you like, so I specially prepared 5 source tickets to show my apology..."

"Do you think that this little money will make me accept your questioning?"

Zhang Xuan frowned, then nodded: "Yes, I can accept it!"

He took the ticket, counted it and it was exactly 50,000, and put it into his pocket with satisfaction.

Zhang Xuan greeted with a big smile: "Master Liu, my friend, please come in!"

As a teacher for all ages, dignity is of course extremely important, but you can't just give up money for the sake of dignity!
"There's no living room in the teacher's dormitory, and it's a little dark in the room. Why don't we just sit here?"

Zhang Xuan walked a few steps and stopped at the octagonal pavilion in the courtyard. He greeted them and sat down first.

After taking a look at the young man next to him and seeing that he had no objection, Liu Tianzheng breathed a sigh of relief. After he sat down, he followed him and sat down.

With just a slight movement, Zhang Xuan confirmed two things.

First, this young man's status is much higher than Liu Tianzheng's. He dared not sit until the other party sat down. It was obviously a kind of respect.

The heads of the three major families in Baiyan City dared to quarrel with Dean Lu, and were not very respectful when seeing City Lord Yu, but had such an attitude towards the person in front of him... This young man is probably not simple!

Second, there must be something wrong with me, and the other party discovered it and wanted to investigate! Because this young man, since he saw me, his eyes have never left me, as if he wanted to find out something.

Fortunately, the Tiandao technique can hide the aura, cultivation level, technique, and the route of the true qi circulation. Not to mention the opponent, even if City Lord Yu is so powerful, he cannot be seen if he does not want to show it.

"I guess the competition with the head of the Liu family made him realize that something was wrong, but I had already thought of an excuse in advance..."

Three days ago he was just an ordinary groom, but today he fought with him and even defeated him. It would be strange if the head of the Liu family did not think there was something wrong.

This person might have come for this purpose as well.

"It's a pity that my destiny energy has been used up. Otherwise, I could check the library and find out its origins..."

These thoughts flashed through Zhang Xuan's mind, but his face showed no expression. He asked directly, "This friend of Patriarch Liu looks a little unfamiliar. I don't think I've seen him in Baiyan City before..."

Liu Tianzheng smiled and said, "This Lord Xu Xin has come from the imperial capital. I heard that Teacher Zhang Xuan not only became a guest elder of the Chen Mansion at a young age, but his teaching is also extraordinary. That's why I took the liberty to come and meet him..."

"Imperial Capital?"

With a preliminary judgment in mind, Zhang Xuan explained, "Master Liu, you are overpraising me! Teaching is like a chef cooking. Whether students are willing to listen or not is up to their own taste. Maybe my class is more suitable for your daughter, which is why she is reluctant to go home in the short term. As time goes by, once she understands it, she will naturally understand your good intentions."

As a famous teacher, one must not only be able to teach, but also be able to handle the relationship between students and parents. This kind of all-purpose rhetoric has long been perfected.

Anyway, there is only one purpose, which is not to offend the other party and just fool them first.

As for whether Liu Mingyue will pay attention to you in the future, that is your father-daughter business. It has nothing to do with me and I won’t get involved.

"Ah, this..." After a moment of silence, Liu Tianzheng actually felt that it made a lot of sense.

Zhang Xuan continued, "As for the guest official of Chen Mansion, I am naturally good at horse training. It is just my talent, nothing special, not worth mentioning..."

"That's not right!"

Liu Tianzheng said, "There are many people in Baiyan City who are good at horse training. Zhou Qun is one of them. Both the Qieqi and Daoli were trained by him. Why didn't Patriarch Chen hire you instead? The key is that Zhou Qun and others also respect you very much and are even willing to become your disciples."

"This……"

Zhang Xuan was wondering how to respond, but Xu Xin, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up leisurely, "Training horses is just a small matter. Horses are just horses. No matter how obedient they are, what can they do... Thank you!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw someone pick up the teapot on the table and pour him a full cup of water. Then he poured a cup for clan leader Liu Tianzheng who was not far away.

He picked up the tea and was about to take a sip when he saw Liu Tianzheng holding his arm with a strange look on his face: "Master Xu..."

"what happened?"

Xu Xin was about to scold, but then he realized what was happening. He looked up and almost lost his grip on the teacup. He saw a horse holding a kettle, pouring water for them one by one... Seeing him looking at him, a pair of big eyes showed a smile, and nodded in return...

His eyelids jumped, and he quickly looked at the young man opposite him, and saw that his face was also not very good, and he was a little angry: "The tea is cold, don't you know how to heat it up? How can you entertain guests like this?"

"Hey, hey~~"

The horse retreated with an embarrassed look on his face, trotted all the way to the kitchen, and skillfully added firewood to the pot to boil water.

“???” Xu Xin was confused.

He poured tea and boiled water. If he wasn't so tall and strong, I would have suspected that he was a monk wearing a horse skin...

"You call this... 'ordinary'?" Xu Xin couldn't help himself any longer.

I've seen old horses recognize the road, I've seen horses recognize their owners, I've seen horses that can help their owners block arrows and kill enemies...but this is the first time I've seen a horse being used as a servant.

I thought the other party's horse training technique was just to make the horse obedient, and I didn't think it was a big deal. After all the fuss, what you called "ordinary and not worth mentioning" is this?

"We don't have any servants, so we can only let it do it... Besides, this horse was tamed by the Liu family and sold to me two days ago as a gift for apprenticeship. Why is it so capable? I don't know." Zhang Xuan evaded the question.

"Is that so?" Xu Xin looked over.

"This stolen horse was indeed sold to Teacher Zhang the day before yesterday!" Liu Tianzheng didn't dare to lie.

Xu Xin asked, "Is it the same in the Liu family? Can you boil water and make tea?"

Liu Tianzheng quickly shook his head: "That's not the case!"

When Dao Li was in his house, he needed someone to serve him just like the old man. It had never been heard of that he could serve others.

Zhang Xuan said, "That's probably because Patriarch Liu hasn't completely tamed it. Once he does, let alone a horse, even a monkey can dress itself and cook. I just asked it to boil water and pour tea, which is nothing."

"It's also..."

Xu Xin and Liu Tianzheng looked at each other. Although they still felt something was wrong, it was not so shocking anymore.

Some powerful animals have very high IQs. Strong source beasts are even exactly the same as humans. They can do everything, understand etiquette, and know when to advance and retreat. Although this one in front of us is just a horse, it may not be impossible to learn if taught a few more times.

Knowing that it was meaningless to continue dwelling on this question, Xu Xin looked over curiously and said, "I heard from Patriarch Liu that Teacher Zhang's cultivation was not very high three days ago, but now he is not at a disadvantage in a battle with him. I wonder... how he cultivates?"

Seeing that he had asked this question, Zhang Xuan sighed and showed a trace of embarrassment on his face: "Actually... I started practicing very early, but due to my embarrassing identity, I never revealed it. Now I am honored to be hired as a teacher by Dean Lu, so naturally I don't need to hide it anymore."

Since it is impossible to achieve such a level of cultivation in a short period of time, let's move the timeline forward.

Anyway, when I was a groom, I was very low-key, and before that... there was no source world, so even if someone wanted to check, they couldn't find it.

"Have you been practicing for a long time?"

Xu Xin and Patriarch Liu looked at each other.

Judging from the other party's age, if he started practicing at around the age of sixteen like Liu Mingyue, it would not be strange for him to have such strength at the age of twenty-five or twenty-six.

"Yes!"

After explaining it clearly, Zhang Xuan looked over in confusion: "This Lord Xu asked so many detailed questions. Could it be that I did something wrong before? Or offended someone, so he came to investigate?"

"That's not true..."

Liu Tianzheng smiled and exchanged a glance with Xu Xin. After receiving the instruction, he nodded and explained, "Actually, Master Xu is a life protector. This time he came here to find some geniuses and see if he can bring them back to the Heavenly Fate Palace for intensive training."

We certainly can't talk directly about the person who caused trouble. Saying that we are looking for a genius can both eliminate suspicion and make the excuse more appropriate.

After saying that, he looked carefully at the young man opposite him, wanting to see how he would react. However, he saw that he was not panicked at all, but instead showed a hint of doubt: "Life Guardian...what is that?"

"The Guardian of Life is the guardian of the Master of Destiny..."

After explaining casually, Liu Tianzheng looked over curiously: "Teacher Zhang, have you never heard of this before?"

Zhang Xuan shook his head.

"This……"

Seeing that he looked sincere and didn't seem to be pretending, Xu Xin frowned.

If even the guardian angel doesn’t know him, then he can’t be the legendary messenger.

From the current point of view, except for the horse that is boiling water, this person looks normal from every angle and there is no problem at all!
Did you guess wrong?
