Chapter 1553: Senior Brother!

Elder Qu was seeing Zhang Xuan in person for the first time. Back then, this fellow had disguised himself as Yang Shi and poisoned him, all actions violating the rules of the master teachers. That was why he reported to the Master Teacher Hall and fanned the flames, prompting the arrest warrant.

He had thought that with so many master teachers from the Master Teacher Hall dispatched simultaneously, this fellow would have no escape. Never in his dreams did he expect that the other party's students would come one after another, each more formidable than the last!

Even if the students were formidable, as long as the three major powers held firm, they could still punish him in the end... But then his true identity was revealed, making him not only the clan head of the Zhang family but also the hall master of the Saint Child Hall, and the Icefield Palace, the only sect composed entirely of women, became his student's sect...

With him being this formidable, could it be that in a little while, the Master Teacher Hall will also become your subordinate...

Turning his head to look, he saw that everyone around him was utterly dumbfounded, all shocked by the news before them.

Haha, son, well done!

The laughter of Sword Saint Xing rang out.

"My son is naturally extraordinary, not to mention better than you back then—even the you of today is far from catching up..."

Dream Sword Saint smiled, the more she looked at the young man before her, the prouder she felt.

This son of hers had been separated from her since childhood. She had thought he had suffered untold hardships, too miserable to behold. Never in her dreams did she expect that when they met again, he would already be the master of the Holy Son Hall, and the students he taught were outstanding and immensely powerful!

The first-rate powers on the continent had almost been unified by him alone!

"Ah, right, son, before you were even born, we arranged a marriage for you..."

Thinking of these powers, Dream Sword Saint suddenly turned to look at Luo Qingchen not far away: "Elder Qingchen, when will our son's wedding take place? I heard that young lady of yours already has someone in her heart... This goes against your original agreement, doesn't it!"

"We'll hold the wedding as soon as we return—the sooner the better!" Luo Qingchen laughed and also looked over: "As for the beloved of our little princess, you can ask Zhang Shi; he should know better than us!"

"You know?"

Dream Sword Saint looked over with a puzzled expression.

She had only heard that the young lady had someone she liked, but who it was, the other party hadn't said, so it wasn't clear.

"This..."

With an awkward expression, Zhang Xuan scratched his head: "If I'm not mistaken, the one in her heart should be me..."

"You?"

Dream Sword Saint's eyes went wide.

"Yes!" Zhang Xuan nodded with a wry smile.

To be honest, he was also bewildered by this matter.

The Luo family knew the little princess liked him, so they sent Luo Xuanqing to kill him, and Luo Xuanqing found him... it was a complete mess. And now, today, he found out that he himself was the little genius she was engaged to...

If he had known earlier, why go through all that trouble?

If he had just revealed his identity, everything would have been perfect...

"This... when did you two get together? Tell your mother quickly..."

Dream Sword Saint had lost all her expert demeanor, her face full of gossipy curiosity.

"Get together... can't you use a nicer word?" Zhang Xuan shook his head with a wry smile: "We can talk about this later..."

Having said that, he looked up at Luo Qingchen not far away: "Elder Qingchen, since I am the Zhang family's little genius and the head of the Zhang family, marrying the little princess is in accordance with the rules. She doesn't need to be confined anymore, right!"

"Of course!"

Luo Qingchen quickly nodded.

Previously, she had worried that the little princess having someone she liked would affect the relationship with the Zhang family. She never dreamed that the one she liked was actually the Zhang family's little genius, to whom she was betrothed...

Then what was there to worry about? Nothing at all!

Let alone pure feelings, even if they had a child, it would be fine!

"I'll go back right now and release her. By the way, when will your Zhang family come to propose marriage?"

With a light chuckle, Luo Qingchen stroked his beard and looked at Xing Jiansheng.

This son-in-law was not only the head of the Zhang family but also the master of the Saint Son Hall, controlling the Poison Hall, the War Master Hall, the Enlightened Master Guild, the Ice Plains Palace, the Yuan family... multiple forces!

Once united, their Luo family advancing further was only a matter of time.

Such a formidable figure naturally could not be let go; the sooner the marriage, the better.

Otherwise, once the news spread, countless suitors would come to the Zhang family to propose.

"I'll take him back to acknowledge his ancestors, and after that, I'll prepare a generous gift!" Xing Jiansheng nodded.

The alliance between the Zhang and Luo families was of great significance. Originally, they had worried that the two young people might be unwilling, leading to unpleasantness. Now that the children were mutually attached, it was for the best, and the sooner the better.

"Then I'll go back and prepare in advance..."

With a hearty laugh, Luo Qingchen hesitated no longer and turned to leave.

"Let's go too!"

Smiling lightly, Xing Jiansheng looked at Zhang Xuan, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"This..."

Knowing that the other party wanted him to return to the Zhang family to acknowledge his ancestors, Zhang Xuan hesitated for a moment but still nodded.

Since his predecessor was a little genius of the Zhang family, there was nothing to be conflicted about.

Moreover, the two people before him, the parents of his predecessor, were decisive and magnanimous, very much to his liking.

"Hold on, you can't leave yet..."

Just as they were about to leave, Elder Qu on the side could no longer hold back and called out.

"What's the matter?"

Xing Jiansheng turned around.

"He has only resolved the issue of the three major forces, but the conflict with our Mentor Hall remains unresolved!" Elder Qu gritted his teeth. "His student, this Poison Hall master Wei Ruyan, poisoned so many Mentor Hall experts, and Enlightened Master Guild President Wang Ying enlightened so many Mentor Hall members... How should these be handled?"

"Indeed, and the Mentor Hall master token, please return it to me, Lord Zhang. After all, it represents the authority of the Mentor Hall!"

Ren Qingyuan also nodded and looked over.

"This..."

Hearing them demand the master token, Zhang Xuan's face twitched. He looked at Wei Ruyan and the others: "Ruyan, remove all the poison from these mentors! Wang Ying, have the Enlightened Master Guild people put these buildings back in their original places! As for the master token... I can't return it to you for now!"

"Can't return it? What do you mean?"

Ren Qingyuan frowned.

"Don't worry, no one can refine the master token, and no one can steal it here. You sullied my son's reputation and made a big fuss. When will you restore his mentor status and reputation? We'll talk about it then!" Dream Sword Saint interjected from the side.

"This..." Ren Qingyuan pondered.

"Master, you cannot restore his mentor status. As a mentor, one must have moral integrity and conduct, setting an example for students. He impersonated Teacher Yang's student, which has violated the rules of the Mentor Hall..."

Elder Qu stepped forward, unable to hold back.

Before he could finish, he saw the space before him twist, and two figures appeared abruptly. The leading elder was none other than Teacher Yang!

"Teacher Yang, you've come just in time. This Zhang Xuan impersonated your student, and even disguised himself as you..."

Seeing him, Elder Qu was filled with excitement and hurriedly called out. But before he could finish, he saw Teacher Yang step forward, go up to Zhang Xuan, bow with cupped hands, and say, "Senior Brother!"
