Library of Heaven’s Path - Chapter 2081

“Reporting to Sect Leader Luo, we, the Seven Star Pavilion, Myriad Beasts Hall, and Starchaser Palace have dispatched several hundred thousand men to investigate all of the cities on the Master Teacher Continent, but none of them have heard of the name Luo Qiqi!”

The elder cupped his fists.

“Never heard of it?”

Zhang Xuan frowned.

Since Luo Xuanqing had said that the young lady had used the Dimension Silencer to overcome the shackles of the Master Teacher Continent and ascend to a higher dimension, there was a good chance that she had come to the Master Teacher Continent.

He trusted the intelligence channels of the four sects. Since they said that they couldn’t find anything, there was a good chance that the other party wasn’t around …

Where did he go after breaking through the dimension barrier on the Master Teacher Continent?

“Let’s go …”

There was nothing he could do about it. Shaking his head, Zhang Xuan walked over to where the other disciples were cultivating.

In ten days, everyone had made great progress. Zhao Ya, Zheng Yang, and the other eight disciples had reached the True Immortal Realm!

Even Yuan Tao, who cultivated slowly, had reached the pinnacle of the Pseudo Immortal realm.

As for Bai Ruanqing, she had successfully made a breakthrough to the High Immortal realm, making her the youngest expert in the entire Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion.

Seeing that everyone was working hard on their cultivation, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to return to his seclusion, he heard a commotion.

“Young Master, you must redress my grievances … Xiao Qiang, I’ve been with you for so many years, ever since we were in Tianxuan Kingdom. You can’t possibly let this bandit replace me, right?”

With an exaggerated scream, a fatty rushed in from outside the courtyard.

It was Sun Qiang.

He had already arrived at the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion from Xuanjiang City.

With Zhang Xuan’s weapon as a token, it wasn’t too difficult for Zhang Xuan to get to this place and meet the bandit, Cao Chengli.

Both of them claimed that they were Zhang Xuan’s housekeepers, so they started quarreling and even came to blows.

While Cao Chengli was an expert from the Azure, his cultivation had only reached Ancient Sage 4-dan, which was around the same level as Sun Qiang. As such, the two of them were unable to concede defeat to one another. When they heard that the Young Master had come out of his seclusion, they immediately rushed over to him.

“Young Master, I have no idea where this fellow came from. He claimed to be your butler, and he even made a move on me …” Cao Chengli didn’t back down.

Zhang Xuan waved his hand. “It’s just a housekeeper’s position. Is there a need to be so noisy? Don’t you feel ashamed? ”

“You can’t put it that way. Since it’s a butler, of course it can only be one person. If there are too many people and they want to manage it, who should they listen to?”

Sun Qiang hurriedly said, “Young Master, I’ve been with you for so long, and I’m very familiar with your actions and behavior. You’re definitely much better than this guy who came halfway …”

“You …” Cao Chengli gritted his teeth. “Young Master, that fellow doesn’t look reliable at all. I’ll be a better butler than him …”

Seeing that the two of them were arguing again, Zhang Xuan rubbed his glabella.

Sun Qiang liked to act cool. No matter what it was, no matter if it would bring him trouble or not, he would act cool first … His fearless appearance could easily bring him trouble as a butler.

As for Cao Chengli, he was even more brazen and lustful. No matter what he did, he would always think of women first. He was even more unreliable than Zhang Xuan!

Sigh, how could someone as reliable as him have known that the two butlers he took in would be like that?

And now, they were even arguing endlessly over this position …

“There’s also Sun Qiang …” Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment before saying.

Comparing the two of them, he felt that Sun Qiang was much more reliable.

At the very least, he had never disappointed him when it came to gathering information and earning money.

“I …”

Cao Chengli panicked.

“You’ll just have to take care of Dan Xiaotian and my disciples from now on,” Zhang Xuan instructed. “Don’t lead them astray, or else I’ll hold you responsible!”

Given how unreliable that fellow was, it would be difficult for him to educate Zheng Yang, Yuan Tao, and the others if they were led astray.

“Yes …”

Cao Chengli hurriedly nodded.

He did not ask for much. As long as he did not get chased away, he was fine with it.

“Since you are here, help me look into Luo Qiqi’s whereabouts. She should be in the Azure by now,” Zhang Xuan instructed.

After making the arrangements, Zhang Xuan suddenly recalled the news that the elder from before had failed to gather — Zhang Xuan.

“Young Mistress Luo Qiqi is in the Azure?”

Sun Qiang was taken aback for a moment before nodding. “Don’t worry, Young Master. As long as she appears, I’ll be able to find her for you!”

“Un.”

Zhang Xuan nodded.

Leaving such matters to Sun Qiang was more reassuring. After all, that fellow had been a merchant back then, and he was quite skilled in building connections and locating people.

After a moment of hesitation, Sun Qiang said, “Young Master, please don’t blame me for speaking out of turn, but Young Mistress Luo Qiqi has done so much for you … Do you really not like her?”

Others might not be aware of Luo Qiqi’s feelings for the Young Master, but he had seen it with his own eyes.

For the Young Master, she had gone to the extent of falling out with her clan members and risking her life for the Young Master … Yet, the young man before him seemed to have completely broken her heart.

“Like her?”

Zhang Xuan shook his head.

Throughout his journey from Tianxuan Kingdom to the Azure, he had met quite a few ladies who had taken a liking to him. Shen Bi Ru, Mo Yu, Zhao Feiwu, Hu Yaoyao, Yu Fei-er … Every single one of them was outstanding and beautiful, but he had no feelings for them at all.

The same went for Luo Qiqi as well.

Only … Lozosy had fallen in love with him at first sight. It was as if the other party had some kind of unique disposition that drew him in, causing him to be infatuated with her, making him lose control of himself.

“To not even like such a good lady … What an emotionless, cold-blooded man …”

Seeing Zhang Xuan shake his head, Sun Qiang muttered.

Luo Qiqi had done so much for the Young Master, but she hadn’t received the slightest bit of affection in return. As the butler of the Azure, he couldn’t stand it anymore.

“Emotionless?”

Just as Zhang Xuan was about to fly into a rage, he suddenly froze.

Was he emotionless?

Yes!

Parental affection, teacher-student affection, master-servant affection, brotherly affection … He had all of them!

However, ever since he had transcended over and obtained the Library of Heaven’s Path, he hadn’t paid much attention to love.

In his previous life, he had only been a librarian in an ordinary high school, and he had been single as well. Under normal circumstances, if a beautiful lady were to fall in love with him, he should have gladly agreed to it. Yet, he didn’t feel anything at all.

Furthermore, other than Lozosy, he wouldn’t let his emotions get the better of him. He was as calm as a monster.

Previously, he had thought that it was because he had comprehended Heart of Tranquil Water, but from the looks of it now, things weren’t as simple as he thought.

“Could it be that … I have already been influenced by the Library of Heaven’s Path?”

If the heavens had emotions, they would age as well!

The heavens were orderly, and the heavens were flawed … Similarly, the heavens were emotionless!

The world was heartless, treating all living beings as nothing more than straw dogs!

No matter how the world turned into, it was their own actions, and it had nothing to do with the heavens. The heavens let nature take its course, and everything flowed silently into the night.

Zhang Xuan hadn’t realized it before, but after hearing Sun Qiang’s words, he came to a realization.

Luo Qiqi had done a lot for him. If it had been anyone else, their heart would have surely softened by now. Yet, Zhang Xuan was emotionless, as calm as a machine.

It was as if he was looking at the problem from another world …

As it turned out, his view of love had been completely influenced.

As for Lozosy …

Perhaps, just like Kong Shi and him, she had grasped a portion of the heavens as well, and that was the reason why they fell in love at first sight.

Eventually, it evolved into love, and not even the Library of Heaven’s Path was able to stop it!

With such thoughts in mind, a thought flashed across Zhang Xuan’s mind. “The heavens are orderly, and everything in the world has its own rules! The heavens are flawed, and everything in the world has its own flaws … However, emotions are the only things that don’t follow the rules. As soon as they are released, they leave one intoxicated, unable to extricate themselves from them … ”

There were many things that had their own rules, and they could be done according to them. But … did love have its own rules?

No!

As the young prodigy of the Zhang family, he should have fallen in love with Lozosy. Yet, he fell in love with her instead!

There were many cases in the Master Teacher Continent where two people fell in love with one another despite being sworn enemies!

If one could control it, who wouldn’t try to control it?

However, it was a pity that the most uncontrollable thing in the world was love. It was a unique state of mind that left one intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves from it!

As for flaws … were there flaws in love?

Yes, and there were many of them … However, they were able to make countless lifeforms fall for them. In fact, even though they were aware of it, they were willing to do so … As such, the flaws in love were no longer flaws but beauty.

“I see!”

A gleam of light flashed across Zhang Xuan’s eyes. “If the heavens have emotions, the heavens age easily. In the face of emotions, even the heavens are unable to control them, so what do I have to be conflicted about?”

In the three years that he had spent in the Great Codex of Spring and Autumn, he had been searching for a flawless cultivation technique to surpass the heavens!

But Heaven’s Path cultivation techniques were flawless in the first place, so how could he surpass them?

No matter how good he was at creating a flawless cultivation technique, it was impossible for him to surpass the heavens!

It was for this reason that he had been unable to succeed for the past three years.

It was only at this moment that he realized that he had been searching in the wrong direction!

Love was something that surpassed the heavens and time in this world!

Some people could love one another for a hundred years or even a thousand years without any regrets.

Some people were willing to sacrifice their lives for the sake of love.

Kinship, friendship, love …

For him, Luo Qiqi was willing to pay any price.

For mankind, Zhang Hongtian was willing to shed his last drop of blood without asking for anything in return.

For Ancient Sage Yan Hui, his body was left behind to guard the passageway for ten thousand years …

…

Be it in the history of the Master Teacher Continent or the Azure, he had seen too many similar incidents.

Even the passing of tens of thousands of years on the Master Teacher Continent was unable to erase Kong Shi’s greatness. This was more than enough to show that even though the heavens could destroy lives, it could not affect emotions.

“The heavens aren’t eternal. Only emotions transcend everything else …”

Hong long!

Zhang Xuan’s body jolted as a surge of energy surged from his dantian. The bottleneck that he had been unable to overcome all this while was about to open up at any moment.

“Xiao Qiang, thank you!”

Zhang Xuan’s eyes lit up as he turned to look at Sun Qiang. With a hearty chuckle, he returned back to the silent chamber.

“This …”

Seeing how the Young Master did not get angry despite the severity of his words and even thanked him, Sun Qiang blinked his eyes in bewilderment.

Had the Young Master gone mad?

On the other hand, Cao Chengli’s lips twitched upon seeing this sight.

Back then, he had only reprimanded Zhang Xuan once, and he had already been punished. Yet, the Young Master’s words were even more severe. Not only did the Young Master not reprimand him, he even thanked him …

Throughout their journey, the Young Master had never shown any interest in women.

Could it be that his true love was with Sun Qiang?

Looking at Sun Qiang’s expression, Cao Chengli sighed deeply. His taste sure is heavy!

Brother Hangneck, you’ve finally created your own cultivation technique. You’re getting more and more formidable by the day.
