Library of Heaven's Path

Walking to the door, Meng Tao nodded.

There was no response. Gedeng, Zhang Xuanʼs heart skipped a beat.

Could this fellow have truly collapsed from the poison?

Without any hesitation, Zhang Xuan kicked open the door and walked in.

The room was small, and all kinds of miscellaneous objects were placed here. However, it was packed properly, and at the very corner, there was a small bed where one could rest on.

”No one is here?”

The place was small, and with a brief glance, Zhang Xuan could see that there was no one in here.

”Teacher...”

Meng Tao noticed something, and he passed it over to Zhang Xuan.

It was an envelope, and written on it was ʼTo Liu laoshiʼ.

From the looks of it, he knew that Zhang Xuan would look for him, so he made preparations beforehand.

Zhang Xuan swiftly tore open the envelope.

There was just a line of words, and the meaning behind it was simple.

”Liu laoshi, pardon your unfilial student, but I canʼt abandon my vengeance for my parents and kin. Please donʼt look for me!”

”He... went to exact vengeance?”

Zhang Xuan frowned.

He knew that Lu Chong was carrying a huge burden in his heart, and there wasnʼt a single day that he didnʼt think about exacting vengeance on his enemies. Even so, to rush over as soon as his Poison Body was successfully cultivated, wasnʼt he being a little too anxious!

Even so, Zhang Xuan could understand his impulse.

How could a person allow the murderer of his family and relatives to get away scot-free? He had toiled silently for two years just for this, and upon seeing his goal right before him, how could he remain seated?

”Just that, I wonder who his enemy is...”

Afraid of implicating him, Lu Chong had never revealed who his enemy was. Even though Zhang Xuan wanted to look for Lu Chong, he didnʼt have any idea where he should start from!

”Pay close attention to the movements in Tianwu Royal City these few days. If anyone is killed or thereʼs any sort of uproar, notify me immediately!”

Zhang Xuan instructed.

Those students of his came from distinguished families. Alone, Zhang Xuan might be unable to find anything, but through their connections, he should be able to get some news soon.

Since Lu Chong was going as far as to feign mute, there was a high probability that his enemy was in the capital, and he possessed a high standing at that!

Thus, if he were to make his move, it would surely cause a huge commotion. By then, it shouldnʼt be a problem to find him.

”Reckless!”

Zhang Xuan shook his head.

He was just thinking of imparting the other party a battle technique after he had finished cultivating his poison body to increase his chances of winning.

Who knew that the other party would leave as soon as he was done, not even greeting him at that. Despite his composed nature, he sure acted rashly.

Actually, Zhang Xuan knew that Lu Chong was doing this because he didnʼt want to implicate him.

If Zhang Xuan were to find out about it, he would surely interfere in his matters. Even more so, if he were to meet in danger, there was a high possibility that Zhang Xuan would stand up for him. If so, Zhang Xuan would be implicated to this matter as well.

In order not to bring harm to his respected teacher, he chose to depart by his own, leaving behind just a letter.

This fellow may be young, but he sure had a lot of thoughts.

”Letʼs return to the classroom first!”

Sighing, Zhang Xuan started walking back toward the classroom.

Even though he felt that the fellow was acting too rashly, Zhang Xuan felt moved by his gesture.

”Teacher and student. What makes a teacher? What makes a student?”

Zhang Xuan contemplated as he walked.

Ever since his transcension, he had been accepting students and teaching them for his own motives.

He was earnest in his job as a teacher, and the knowledge he imparted was also carefully selected with the welfare of his students at heart... But in truth, from the very start until now, he hadnʼt been able to understand the true meaning behind a teacher.

It was just like a pair of young parents. They might shower unconditional love and concern for their child, but the notion of being a parent was still blurred in them.

Zhang Xuan was only a librarian of a high school in his previous life, so he wasnʼt a teacher in the truest sense.

Even though he had accepted quite a few students, his time with them hadnʼt been long, and he was plagued with many other affairs as well.

Somehow, Lu Chongʼs actions had unwittingly struck a chord in his heart.
