Library of Heaven's Path 2: Eternal Fate of the Heavens

Chapter 77 Liu Mingyue Explains

No longer able to restrain himself, Zhang Xuan looked at his two female disciples.

The Yu Xiaoyu, who just a moment ago was wide awake and claimed to have learned everything, now appeared utterly perplexed. Meanwhile, the Liu Mingyue, who seemed completely clueless and didn't understand a thing before, was now speaking fluently...

She even got a small part of the cultivation method right!

Zhang Xuan's brows knitted into knots.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Could it be that I was seeing things earlier, and it was actually Liu Mingyue who said she learned... while the one who claimed not to understand was... Yu Xiaoyu?

While he was starting to question his own sanity on this side, not far away, Chen Hao also felt like he had gone completely mad.

Wasn't Liu Mingyue quite hostile towards the Miscellaneous Duties Teacher, showing no interest in being his student?

Why all of a sudden is she speaking up for him... and remembering his lecture so clearly?

I'm trying to help you, yet you stab me in the back...

Chen Hao suddenly felt like a clown.

"Young Master Chen, do you think Miss Liu might just want to help Teacher Zhang save face, so she's saying this on purpose? In reality, it's not what he taught, but rather a cultivation technique she memorized before?"

A student suggested from within the crowd.

"That possibility can't be ruled out! Otherwise, why wouldn't a teacher teach the basic Recovery and Energy Storage Technique, but lecture on some unheard of secret manual?"

Another student next to him nodded in agreement.

"Exactly!"

Enlightened by the two's analysis, Chen Hao's eyes lit up, "It must be the case! Otherwise, how could it be that Miss Yu doesn't remember a single word, while Miss Yue'er can remember so much...?"

Coming to this conclusion, he couldn't help but call out, "Miss Yue'er, just tell the truth, there's no need to cover for him..."

"Cover for my ass..."

"No, this cultivation technique is unheard of, and many phrases are obscure and hard to understand, likely to be half-truths and utterly improvable!"

A flash of understanding crossed his mind, and Chen Hao couldn't help but speak out.

Some literary and philosophical scholars intentionally discuss esoteric techniques to show off their uniqueness. This fellow here was probably doing the same.

He introduced a previously unheard of cultivation technique, bluffed his way through, and after all, neither Yu Xiaoyu nor Liu Mingyue might actually practice it considering their family backgrounds.

Lu Mingrong frowned.

The techniques that Liu Mingyue and Hong Yi talked about indeed sounded profound, but whether or not it was practicable, even he, despite his strength, wouldn't dare to guarantee without hearing the complete version.

Moreover, even with the complete technique, whether or not one could practice it or practice swiftly still needed someone to verify through actual practice, but he couldn't say this aloud.

"Quibbling over nothing..."

With a flick of his sleeve, Lu Mingrong huffed, "How to teach and what material to cover is up to each teacher and their planned curriculum, something even we at the School cannot interfere with. You, a student, by what right do you question it?"

"School Head Lu, I'm not interfering, nor am I questioning!"

Chen Hao bowed with his fist cupped, "I'm just considering the future of the School! Both Miss Yu and Miss Liu are the pinnacle of talent from Baiyan City. If their potential is hindered by a Servant Teacher, wouldn't our School be left with a reputation for leading students astray?"

Lu Mingrong was left speechless.

Why had he agreed to have those two take tutelage under Zhang Xuan? It was because he was an absolute genius! Once he rises, the truth would come out naturally, and everyone would praise him for his wisdom. The stain of a bad reputation... there was none!

But he couldn't voice these thoughts...

About to burst with irritation and filled with anger, he said, "Then what do you propose?"

They would have to get rid of this nuisance after this affair... Otherwise, if they truly upset Zhang Xuan, it would not be worth the trouble.

"Reporting to the School Head, my idea is simple. The three of them claim to have learned the cultivation technique, right? If they have learned it, they should be able to practice it, especially since encountering Origin qi for the first time through the meridians usually results in the most significant improvement...

If their strength changes, then the technique is useful; if not, it is an empty show and downright deception!"
