Chapter 1606: Luo Tianya

Library of Heaven's Path · 第1606章 洛天涯

Having caused such displeasure at the Luo family, with them wishing to flay him alive, why go there now?

Though puzzled, Luo Ruoxi did not suspect he intended to visit Luo Qiqi.

His feelings for her were still evident.

"Hmm," Zhang Xuan nodded. "It was my fault, causing great harm to the Luo family. I've just comprehended the true solution to the Seal of Space, and I want to teach it to them to make up for what happened before."

"The misunderstanding did wrong them, so making amends is right. But... if you go now, I'm afraid they won't appreciate it and might cause even more trouble," Luo Ruoxi shook her head.

If not for the Zhang family's protection, along with the Master Teacher Academy and Teacher Yang, blood would have already flowed like a river.

This time, even if he went with good intentions, they might not be grateful.

It might even lead to a fight, leaving both sides unhappy.

"I know, so I wanted to discuss with you: disguise ourselves so they can't recognize us, and then no misunderstandings will arise."

Knowing the Luo family's current hostility toward him, Zhang Xuan showed some helplessness. "The true solution to the Seal of Space has always been a secret of the Luo family, and none of their members have achieved it yet. Teaching it to them would make up for my past debt."

The last incident was entirely his fault for not asking who the little princess was beforehand, leading to such a huge blunder.

If he had known in advance and declined the marriage, it wouldn't have led to the complete rift between the two families, nor would the Luo family have lost face in front of so many strong experts.

"Alright," Luo Ruoxi agreed.

"You... aren't angry?" Seeing her agree so readily, Zhang Xuan couldn't help asking.

To be honest, any other girl would feel uncomfortable. Her quick agreement—did she really not care?

"Of course not!" Luo Ruoxi smiled lightly, like a blooming flower.

In fact, the more Zhang Xuan acted this way, the more she felt she hadn't misjudged him: he didn't boast when doing right, was modest and reserved; he bravely admitted when wrong, magnanimous and neither servile nor arrogant.

That was the demeanor a man should have.

That was the breadth of mind her Luo Ruoxi's beloved should possess.

"Then let's set off!"

Laughing heartily, Zhang Xuan held her hand, feeling full of happiness.

...

With a deeper understanding of space and the aid of the Dragon Bone Divine Spear, Zhang Xuan could now find spatial wormholes, greatly increasing his flying speed.

Before long, they arrived again at the Luo family's territory.

"Your disguise, though undetectable even by nine-star master teachers, might still be seen through by some special treasures. I have a disguise talisman here; once affixed to your face, no one can detect it!"

Seeing his disguise complete, Luo Ruoxi examined it and took out a talisman paper.

"Great!" Zhang Xuan quickly took it.

Last time, despite his careful disguise, Teacher Yang had seen through it. With this, it would be safer.

Looking down at the talisman, he saw special patterns and characters he didn't recognize, but it exuded an extremely powerful force that even divine sense couldn't penetrate.

He gently placed it on his forehead.

Buzz!

The moment the talisman touched his face, it vanished, turning into a special stream of energy that flowed into his body. With a thought, Zhang Xuan transformed into a sallow-faced middle-aged man.

He looked about forty, tall and thin, with eyes like an eagle's, gleaming with wisdom.

"What a treasure!"

Extending his divine sense, he carefully scanned himself several times, finding no flaws. Even his Eye of Insight couldn't see through it. Zhang Xuan couldn't help but admire.

This disguise talisman was far more powerful than his own method. With it, even if he met Teacher Yang again, he probably wouldn't be detected.

After disguising himself, he turned to look at the girl nearby, who had also disguised herself as a middle-aged woman. Though her beautiful features were hidden, her every move still revealed traces of her elegance.

"Haha, this is good. Going out like this, we'll soon earn the title 'The Couple of Fiends'!" Zhang Xuan laughed.

Xing and Meng the Sword Sages were famous, and no one dared speak ill of them openly, but many feared them behind their backs. While they were openly called 'Sword Sages,' behind the scenes they were often called 'The Two Fiends'!

The two of them, disguised as a middle-aged couple, both standing at the peak of the continent, would likely gain a reputation quickly if they went out.

"Who's a couple with you? We're... we're siblings!"

Luo Ruoxi blushed.

"Siblings? Siblings usually look alike. So... am I that handsome? No wonder so many people like me. So that's it..." Zhang Xuan stroked his chin, musing.

"Cheeky!"

Luo Ruoxi burst out laughing. She had thought disguising as a couple was inappropriate, but now she felt it wasn't bad. "Disguising as a couple is fine, but we still need a name. Otherwise, if someone asks your name, you won't know how to answer."

"Our parents each took a character from their names to become Xingmeng the Sword Sage. We could each take one too. How about... Xuanxi the Sword Sage?" Zhang Xuan suggested.

"Then what's the point of disguising?" Luo Ruoxi shot him a glance.

"That's true... I've used names like Yang Xuan, Sun Qiang, Wu Zhangxuan before. This time I need something different... Oh, I'll just say my surname is Luo. That way, even if I teach them the true solution to the Seal of Space, they'll think the family's core secret hasn't been leaked outside!"

His eyes lit up, Zhang Xuan said.

Since he was using a fake name anyway, to make them believe and teach them smoothly, the surname 'Luo' was naturally the best.

After all, the Seal of Space was a unique ability of the Luo family.

With the Luo family being so large, an occasional branch member popping up would probably be untraceable.

Having visited the Zhang family, he knew the status of branch members within the clan. Because of their thin bloodline, they couldn't even enter the family genealogy. Let alone one or two extra, even dozens missing might go unnoticed.

"Surname Luo is good... Then I'll take a name too... Call me Lingxi. I haven't decided on a surname... Just Lingxi will do," Luo Ruoxi said.

"Lingxi? 'Hearts linked, a single thought connects'... That's a good name! Then I'll be Luo Tianya. No matter how far apart we are, north and south, or the ends of the earth, our hearts will be linked, and one thought will connect us!"

Zhang Xuan laughed.

"Good," Luo Ruoxi nodded.

Having settled on names, the two quickly flew toward the Luo family.

At this time, the Luo family was cleaning up the buildings damaged in the previous battle and returning gifts sent by various forces.

People were everywhere, making it look chaotic.

Just as they planned to blend in and find Luo Xuanqing or Luo Qiqi to teach the true solution to the Seal of Space, they heard a whistling wind in the air, and several figures suddenly appeared.

Then a voice suddenly exploded.

"The Great Confucian Hall of the Hundred Schools, Nanyuan Feng, brings his juniors to visit the Luo family head!"
