Chapter 2228 The Meeting Between Kong and Zhang

A person has come to challenge the pavilion master? Hah, is he here to crash the pavilion?

He must be courting death to dare crash our Master Teacher Pavilion!

Hold on a momentdid you hear his name? He called himself Zhang Xuan, right? Is he the apothecary behind the Beauty Pill and Breakthrough Pill?

Thats the only Zhang Xuan in the Firmament that I know of

I heard that he killed Conferred God King Baiye Qinghong of the Sky of Linglong just a few days ago

A commotion broke out in the surroundings.

The master teachers who had charged out in hordes to protect the reputation of their Master Teacher Pavilion, upon hearing that even Conferred God King Baiye Qinghong had not been a match for the young man, faltered a little. They quietly inched back as they waited for someone with greater authority to deal with the situation.

A person who could kill even a Conferred God King was definitely beyond their ability to deal with.

I am the head of the Freedom Royal City Master Teacher Pavilion. Apothecary Zhang, this way please!

A gray-bearded old man walked out from the corridors and ushered Zhang Xuan in.

His cultivation felt condensed and powerful. Just like Zhang Xuan, he was a God King.

Nodding, Zhang Xuan followed him into the inner halls of the Master Teacher Pavilion.

After walking a distance, the old man took a glance behind him, and after ensuring that there was no one around, he halted his footsteps and turned to face Zhang Xuan.

Apothecary Zhang, I was anticipating your visit. Ill lead you over to where His Sovereignty is right away.

Youre aware that Im here to meet the Heaven Subjugation Monarch? Zhang Xuan was surprised.

He had thought that he would have to fight a battle before forcing the other party to bring him to the Heaven Subjugation Monarch, but who could have known that he would hear such words from the other party?

His Sovereignty instructed me to take you to him directly if you came here, the old man replied with a smile.

With a wave of his hand, a Teleportation Formation appeared before the two of them.

Lets go!

After saying those words, the old man stepped into the Teleportation Formation, and Zhang Xuan and Luo Qiqi quickly followed him.

Weng!

With a burst of light, the two of them were brought to an ordinary-looking room.

Sitting on a chair right in front of him was an elder with an amicable look on his face.

It was none other than Kong shi!

There were a group of God Kings and Conferred God Kings standing in rows by the two sides of the room.

Taking a glance around, Zhang Xuans eyebrows shot up.

There were actually quite a few whom he recognized.

Ancient Sage Zi Yuan, Ancient Sage Ran Qiu, Ancient Sage Bo Shang, Ancient Sage Zi Gong

The Ten Apostles and Seventy-two Sages were actually among them!

Even the weakest of them was a high-tier Celestial God.

There were more than ten of them above the God King realm, meaning that Kong shis influence was nowhere weaker than any of the Nine Skies.

Just that had he not seen the corpses of Ancient Sage Zi Yuan and a few others prior to entering the Azure? Why were they completely unharmed?

While Zhang Xuan was perplexed, he knew that this was not the time to be asking questions. So, he walked to the center of the room, bowed deeply, and said, Junior Zhang Xuan pays respects to Kong shi.

With just a look, he could tell that the other party was indeed the revered Worlds Teacher. There was no way to fake it this time.

You are finally here, Kong shi said with a faint smile. He glanced at his disciples around the room and said, The rest of you should take your leave.

Yes, Teacher! Ancient Sage Zi Yuan nodded before ushering the others out.

Qiqi, you should wait outside for me, too, Zhang Xuan said.

Alright. If theres anything you need me for, call for me right away, Luo Qiqi replied with a nod.

Soon, only Zhang Xuan and Kong shi were left in the room.

Take a seat!

With a wave of Kong shis hand, a chair flew over and landed right behind Zhang Xuan.

However, the latter did not settle down on the chair right away. Instead, he lowered his head apologetically and said, Kong shi, I am indebted to you for guiding me while I was still on the Master Teacher Continent, but due to several circumstances, I ended up capturing your clone.

With a flick of his wrist, Zhang Xuan released Kong shis clone, which he had captured back in the Azure.

He is something that I have severed from my will, an existence that was born from me. I thought that I had him suppressed in the Azure, but I didnt think that he would be able to overcome the seal with time, Kong shi replied.

He seemed to be aware of the happenings in the Azure, and he was not displeased with Zhang Xuans actions at all.

With a flick of his finger, his clone was reduced to a wisp of green smoke before vanishing altogether.

After that was done, Kong shi smiled quietly before remarking, I was intending to send a sliver of my will down to the Azure to suppress him, but I dropped that thought after I saw you entering the Azure. Your deeds there really didnt disappoint me.

You are aware of my actions in the Azure? Zhang Xuan was surprised.

The Azure and the Firmament were severed by the dimension barrier, making it nigh impossible to travel or communicate between the two worlds. Yet, Kong shi knew of what had happened in the Azure?

In response to his question, Kong shi replied, Just like you, I came here from the Master Teacher Continent and the Azure. I left my will and a few hands in those two worlds in case of emergencies. While its indeed highly difficult for me to descend to the lower worlds from here, Im still able to keep track of whats happening in those two worlds to some extent!

With his current cultivation realm, not even God Monarch Lingxi would dare claim that she was stronger than him. Naturally, he also possessed means that matched his strength.

That makes sense. Zhang Xuan nodded.

Even though Deathless Monarch came nowhere close to matching God Monarch Lingxi and Kong shi, he was still able to send messages down to Du Qingyuan through the Seal of Supreme Monarch.

Kong shi was known for his exceptional proficiency in a multitude of occupations, and his students were all overflowing with talent. Given so, it should not be too hard for him to achieve that.

Within such a short period of time, you have risen to prominence across numerous worlds, shining even brighter than me, Kong shi said as he stroked his beard with a heartening smile.

All this time, he had been observing Zhang Xuans actions.

Initially, he had thought that the young man was like a fleeting shooting star that only shone splendidly for an instant, but he continued to accomplish feat after feat that amazed those around him. In just two short years, he had ascended from the Master Teacher Continent to the Firmament, and now, the young man was standing before him as a God King.

He never would have thought that it was possible for someone to grow so quickly.

You are gracious with your compliments, Zhang Xuan replied with a hint of redness on his face.

He felt like the reason he could grow this quickly was due to a predecessor standing in front of him, showing him the way.

If not for Kong shi founding the Master Teacher Pavilion and cultivating techniques such as the Saint Ascension Decipher, there was no way he would have been able to grow that quickly. He might not have been able to come so far.

Alright, lets drop the pleasantries and get straight to the point, shall we? I understand the reason for your visit, Kong shi said. You are worried about the duel I am going to have with God Monarch Lingxi, and youre here to talk me out of it, right?

Yes, thats indeed my intention. Zhang Xuan nodded.

He did not think that he would be able to hide his thoughts from Kong shi, so he decided to get straight to the point.

Ill give you a clear answerthats impossible. The duel is inevitable. I am unable to avoid it, and the same goes for you, Kong shi replied with a shake of his head.

The same goes for me? Zhang Xuan was stunned.

This was supposed to be a duel between the Heaven Subjugation Monarch and God Monarch Lingxi. How was he involved in this matter?

Kong shi mused over his words for a moment before asking, You have comprehended the ability of the Heavens Imperfections, right?

Yes, I have, Zhang Xuan replied with a nod.

The ability that I have comprehended is the Heavens Order. I believe that you should be aware of that as well, Kong shi said.

Zhang Xuan nodded once again.

He had learned about that from the will Kong shi had left behind in the Azures Hall of Gods, so it was no secret to him anymore.

Be it the Heavens Order or the Heavens Imperfections, they are all a part of the heavens. They are an integral part to the heavens, Kong shi said as he gazed at the sky outside of the room with a faraway look in his eyes.

Gedeng!

Zhang Xuans heart suddenly jolted as a thought came to him.

Could it be that Ruoxin God Monarch Lingxi also possesses a fragment of the heavens?

Could this be the inevitability that everyone had been talking about all this time?

Was that why he was attracted to Luo Ruoxin despite being incapable of feeling any romantic feelings for anyone else?

Was that why Luo Ruoxin seemed to know about the existence of the Library of Heavens Path right from the start?

Perhaps, the fragments of the heavens were able to sense each others existences instinctively, and they were drawn to one another.
