Chapter 483 Tianxuan: My mother didn’t know him…
Tonight, it is the waxing moon.
The waning moon is like a hook, hanging in the starry night sky. The hazy moonlight and the mottled starlight merge into one, making the earth ruled by the waning moon hazy, like the mysterious world in the legend.
"Hehehe."
The former site of the Qi King’s Palace.
Bei Mingzi, who had snow-white hair and beard and was over a hundred inches tall, stood in front of his beloved disciple. He opened his thin lips and let out an ambiguous laugh.
Tick tock!
Hearing the strange laughter of his mentor, Tianxuan, who was ten feet away from Bei Mingzi, felt panicky. His handsome face was full of panic, and when his eyes looked at Bei Mingzi, fear was hidden. A drop of sweat the size of a soybean oozed down Tianxuan's cheek and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
"Brother, you are really a good disciple of the master!"
Behind Bei Mingzi, his last disciple, Tianxuan's junior sister and the new head of the Taoist Tianzong: Xiaomeng, crossed her arms and held the famous sword Qiuli in her arms. At this time, Xiaomeng no longer flirted with Tianxuan in the past. Her clear and beautiful eyes fell on Tianxuan, full of anger.
In the huge hall, only Bei Mingzi, Tian Xuan, and Xiao Meng were present. The servants, including Xiao Yu, were all driven away by Tian Xuan. Even the guards were ordered to retreat ten feet under Tian Xuan's strict order to avoid hearing anything they shouldn't hear.
"Master, if you want to hit me or scold me, just do it!"
Tianxuan made up his mind and straightened his chest to pretend to be strong.
"When did the master ever say that he would scold you or beat you?" Bei Mingzi was so angry when he saw Tian Xuan's expression that he seemed to be ready to sacrifice himself that he immediately laughed. He replied unhappily, "You are the one who is guilty of your crime!"
In broad daylight, Bei Mingzi and the three masters Xunzi, Donghuang Taiyi and Guiguzi had a debate on the discussion platform of the Jixia Academy that seemed bloodless but was actually more dangerous than a fight with swords and guns.
The reasons why the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties rose and fell!
When the four masters of the Hundred Schools saw this topic, how could they not know that Tianxuan and Fusu preferred Guiguzi to be the new chief priest of the Jixia Academy. Although they knew it in their hearts, the other three were unwilling to give up the position of chief priest that embodied honor and could help boost the power of their own school.
However, Guiguzi had an innate advantage after all, and his eloquence was no less than that of the famous masters, and even better. After a debate, Xunzi, Beimingzi, and Donghuang Taiyi were defeated, and the victorious Guiguzi became the chief priest of the Jixia Academy.
Although Tianxuan believed that Guiguzi was the most suitable candidate to be the chief priest of the academy under the current situation, he could not help but feel ashamed when facing the mentor whom he had invited out.
"Thank you, master."
Seeing that his mentor didn't look like he was going to teach him a lesson, Tianxuan, who had prepared himself to be severely punished by his mentor, felt relieved. While speaking with relief, Tianxuan flashed behind Bei Mingzi and rubbed Bei Mingzi's shoulders and back.
"Master, I have no choice! If I were just Tianxuanzi, it would be great for you to become the chief priest of Jixia Academy. Who would have thought that the moment I invited you to come out, His Majesty personally confirmed that I was his long-lost fourth son. In this case, Big Brother will not allow you to become the chief priest of Jixia Academy."
"If it weren't for this reason." Bei Mingzi was enjoying his beloved disciple's service honestly and unceremoniously. His eyes narrowed slightly and he said unhappily, "I would have beaten you so badly that even your mother wouldn't recognize you."
"Master, my mother didn't know me." Tian Xuan said confidently, "My mother died in a palace coup when I was just born. How could she know me?"
When Xiao Meng heard what Tian Xuan said, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Brother, you are absolutely right. It is impossible for your mother to know you."
"Alas!" Bei Mingzi sighed suddenly while enjoying the service of his beloved disciple.
"Tianxuan, it's time for me to leave! I failed to obtain the position of Jixia Academy's chief priest this time, so I should return to the mountain to cultivate in seclusion."
Tianxuan's expression changed slightly when he heard this: "Master, I beg you for a favor."
"What's the matter?" Bei Mingzi asked indifferently.
Tianxuan's tone turned serious: "Tomorrow, can you and Junior Sister Xiaomeng pretend to leave and actually hide here?"
"Brother, aren't you confident that you can do it alone?" When Xiao Meng heard Tian Xuan say this, her pretty and elegant face showed a half-smile.
Tian Xuan did not deny it: "Xiao Meng, if it was just a mob of farmers and Mohists, I would not take it seriously. But, there are also the Guiguzi Twin Swords. Even if the disciples of Guiguzi have nothing to do with their master after they leave, no one can guarantee that Guiguzi will not get involved in this matter."
"Besides, there is also Luo Wang who wants to kill me. Only with your and Master's help can we be safe!"
At the end of his speech, a gloom flashed across Tianxuan's eyes.
“Haha,” Xiao Meng looked at Tian Xuan with a teasing look after hearing this, “Brother, you are such a failure as a human being. So many people want to kill you!”
"It's not that I'm a failure as a human being." Tian Xuan corrected, "It's just that it has come to this point. Either I eat others, or others eat me. There is no other choice!"
………………
have to! have to! have to!
Three hundred miles from Linzi City, a convoy of several carriages stopped in a dense forest. The horses' hooves hit the ground, and the horseshoes embedded in the hooves made a crisp sound, breaking the tranquility of the forest. The guards in the team lit a bunch of bonfires around the convoy to drive away the birds and beasts.
The hunted game was grilled on the campfire, emitting a rich and tempting aroma.
"Sister, eat something!"
In a gorgeous carriage, Han Fei, the Imperial Censor of the Qin Dynasty, tore off a drumstick of a roasted chicken and handed it to his sister, Chi Lian.
Chi Lian, who returned to Han Fei, was no longer the innocent Princess Honglian, nor was she the charming and enchanting Chi Lian. She had a cold look on her face and no longer had the liveliness of a girl. Facing the chicken leg handed to her by her brother, Chi Lian took it like a puppet and put it into her mouth to chew.
"Sister, don't be too sad." Han Fei naturally knew why Chi Lian became so taciturn. "The reason why Brother Wei Zhuang didn't come to see you is because he knows that you will never marry anyone else, and there will be no danger. When you see Brother Wei Zhuang, if you can't get angry, you might as well slap him a few times."
"Brother, do you think Zhuang will not be a match for Tian Xuanzi?" Chi Lian finally spoke, her gentle words revealing her endless confidence in Wei Zhuang.
Han Fei's eyes lit up with an ambiguous look, and he said quietly: "Many years ago, Brother Wei Zhuang was defeated by Lord Wushuang. From that defeat on, it was destined that Brother Wei Zhuang would never be his opponent!"
'What's the meaning? ’
When Chi Lian heard Han Fei say this, confusion appeared on her pretty face. She didn't quite understand what her brother meant.
"It's getting late, go to bed early!" Han Fei said without any intention of giving Chi Lian an answer.
