Library of Heaven’s Path – Chapter 372

Lin Lang

“The Lin Clan is the number one clan of Tianwu Kingdom, and Lin Lang is the sole son doted on by Clan Head Lin, needless to say, the younger brother of Xuanyuan Kingdom’s princess consort. Even Emperor Mo Tianxue would have to defer to him. As long as he agrees to it, young master has nothing to worry about!”

The coach hesitated for a moment before nodding.

There was no better solution for the current situation.

Once Zhang Xuan passes the 2-star master teacher examination, his standing and identity would rise greatly. If he were to pursue the matter then, the Ji Clan, despite being one of the Three Great Clans, would surely dare not oppose him.

2-star master teachers, especially an exceptional genius of the other party’s caliber, possessed immense prestige and influence.

On top of that, he was the senior of Pavilion Master Jiang, and there was an even more formidable teacher standing behind him…

At this point, Ji Mo didn’t dare to exact vengeance anymore; all he wanted to do now was to find an influential mediator to resolve the dispute.

And the Lin Clan was the best bet he had.

“Un, let’s enter!”

Waving his hands, Ji Mo gongzi started walking toward the Emerald Pavilion with widened strides.

Judging from his ability to maneuver around the place easily despite the complex layout, he must be a frequent guest here often. Soon, he arrived at a vast room.

After exchanging some words with the guards at the door, he walked in.

A sight of magnificence unfolded before him as soon as he stepped into the room.

All kinds of gemstones were embedded into the vast lounge, and mats made from the hide of beasts filled the area. It was so extravagantly decorated that even the royal palace seemed to pale in comparison in terms of grandness.

Furthermore, under the effects of a formation in the room, not only was the completely underground lounge not stuffy, it felt like an otherworldly paradise instead.

At the center of the room, a young man lay on top of a luxurious mat made of beast hide, and beautiful ladies stood in position beside him to fulfill his needs. Laid out before him was a huge feast consisting of all kinds of delicacies, and the smell of marvelous wine tickled one’s nose.

Sitting opposite to him was another extravagantly-dressed young man. That extravagantly-dressed young man held onto a cup in his hands as he proposed a toast.

“Brother Ji Mo, it has been long since we last met…”

Upon seeing Ji Mo enter, the young man who was lying in the embrace of a beauty immediately beckoned him over.

“Lin Lang gongzi!”

Ji Mo clasped his fist.

“Come, allow me to introduce you. This is Kunqian Kingdom’s Prince Fei Xuan!”

Lin Lang gongzi pointed to the young man opposite of him and introduced the two to one another. “Prince Fei Xuan, this is Ji Mo gongzi from Tianwu Royal City’s Ji Clan!”

“So it’s Ji gongzi. To be able to become an official painter at such a young age, I have heard of your great name even from Kunqian Kingdom!”

Prince Fei Xuan smiled.

He was the prince who proposed to Mo Yu back then when Zhang Xuan visited the royal palace.

As his proposal had already failed, and judging that there was a good chance Guild Leader Liu would be able to cure the guardian beast, he decided in turn his efforts to the Lin Clan instead.

With the backing of the Formation Master Guild and the princess consort of Xuanyuan Kingdom, the Lin Clan was a massive power even among all Tier 1 Kingdoms. Even a prince like him didn’t dare to pull his weight before the Lin Clan.

Before arriving at Tianwu Royal City, Prince Fei Xuan had already investigated the distribution of power in the capital. From the intelligence he had gathered, it wasn’t too difficult for him to trace Ji Mo gongzi’s name to his profile.

After getting to know one another, Ji Mo sat down and traded some pleasantries with the duo before diving into the purpose of his visit. “Lin gongzi, in truth, the reason why I’m here today is because I have something I require your help on…”

“Oh?”

Lin Lang glanced at Ji Mo curiously.

“Actually, I… unintentionally offended Master Teacher Zhang Xuan awhile ago, and I fear that he might attempt to exact vengeance after clearing the 2-star master teacher examination. Thus, I would like to ask you to play the role of an mediator to resolve this dispute…”

Ji Mo gongzi said.

“Zhang Xuan? You mean that famous genius?” Lin Lang asked indifferently as he poured himself a cup of wine.

“That’s him…”

Ji Mo gongzi hurriedly nodded his head. Then, with a flick of his wrist, a scroll appeared in his hand. “I understand that it’ll be hard to resolve this matter. I recall that Lin gongzi fancies painting, so I prepared the [Withered Pine Painting] from Elder Jin Mantang for you. I hope that you can accept this gift of mine!”

“Withered Pine Painting? That’s the last painting Elder Jin Mantang left in this world! It is a masterpiece even among fifth level paintings! This painting is extremely valuable, and it is only due to the kindness the Ji Clan showed to the old master back then that he gifted this painting to express his gratitude. To present such a treasure to me… Not bad, not bad!”

Grabbing the painting, Lin Lang unrolled and examined it carefully before nodding in commendation. “Alright, I promise to help you on your matter!”

“Thank you, Lin gongzi!”

Ji Mo gongzi’s face flushed in agitation.

“It isn’t a huge matter anyway. 2-star master teachers may be impressive, but they mean nothing to our Lin Clan! He’s just a lucky fellow who managed to find a good teacher!”

Lin Lang gongzi waved his hands casually and said, “When he’s done with his examination, I’ll send a letter to invite him over so that the two of you can meet one another and resolve whatever conflict you have!”

“Yes!” Ji Mo gongzi nodded vehemently.

If it was anyone else who said those words, he would have definitely scoffed. However, this Lin gongzi did indeed possess the rights to speak such words.

Even though the other party was only three years older than him, he was already a 2-star formation master. On top of that, just two months ago, he had managed to achieve a breakthrough, reaching Zongshi realm!

Furthermore, he had only used half a year to advance from Tongxuan realm pinnacle to Zongshi realm! Even though part of the reason was that of the immense resources that Xuanyuan Kingdom supplied to the Lin Clan, his talents still played an important part!

Above all, he had the Lin Clan behind him.

Xuanyuan Conferred Kingdom Master Teacher Pavilion had 3-star master teachers in their ranks. Even if Zhang Xuan could oppose the Lin Clan, it was impossible for him to oppose Xuanyuan Kingdom.

No matter how talented and respected Zhang Xuan was, he was nothing before Lin Lang.

“Lin gongzi, it’s best for you not to get careless. I’ve heard of Zhang shi before as well, and he seems to be a person of great means. His talent surpasses that of even your kingdom’s number one genius, Mo Hongyi!” Prince Fei Xuan interrupted.

Having resided in Tianwu Royal City for a few days now, he had a clear idea of the current situation in the capital.

There was none in the city who didn’t know of Zhang Xuan’s feat of breaking the all of the previous records set by Mo Hongyi.

“So what if he is a remarkable genius? His cultivation is only at Zongshi realm primary stage… If he wishes to survive in Tianwu Royal City, he would do well to keep himself in check!”

Lin Lang sneered in disdain.

So what if that Zhang Xuan is a genius?

Other than true strength, everything else was illusory.

This was the way of the world, and it would only become increasingly apparent in higher ranked kingdoms. Strength is the basis of one’s standing, and without sufficient strength, even if one had accomplished astounding achievements in their occupation, they would still be looked down by others.

“That’s true…”

Prince Fei Xuan nodded in agreement. Then, he continued, “Right, there’s another genius in the city recently, has Lin gongzi heard of Liu Cheng? According to the rumors, he is a teacher in Tianwu Academy!”

“You mean Guild Leader Liu who solved nineteen questions on the Wall of Dilemma in the Physician Guild?”

Lin Lang waved grandly and replied, “Of course I’ve heard of him, he’s indeed a great talent! However, his cultivation, being only at Tongxuan realm primary stage, is too weak. He’s nothing more than an ant that could be squeezed to death at a whim!”

“Alright, let’s not talk about these unpleasant matters in my Emerald Pavilion, we should have fun instead! Men, the food has already turned cold, change them!”

Chuckling lightly, Lin Lang commanded.

“Yes…”

Upon hearing his orders, a few servants hurriedly rushed forward and replaced those cold dishes with piping hot ones.

All of the servants were wearing a hat, but one of them wore it particularly low, making it difficult to make out his appearance. That servant glanced at Lin Lang, and overflowing hatred rippled in his eyes.

It was Zhang Xuan’s missing student… Lu Chong!
