Chapter 1515: 1515
Of course, the Progeny of Combat was none other than Zhang Xuan's student, Zheng Yang!
His previous hot-bloodedness had been replaced with composure, and his cultivation had reached an unfathomable level . His face had become more distinct and masculine, and his words and gestures carried a dignified disposition .
Within this short period of time, the reckless and naïve young man of the past had matured .
"Senior?" Upon hearing Zheng Yang's words, the elders of the Combat Master Hall widened their eyes in disbelief .
If he addressed the young court chief of the Glacier Plain Court as his senior… did that not mean that she was Zhang Xuan's student as well?
Since that was the case, how did the matter with the Glacier Plain Court blow up so big in the first place?
"Indeed!" Zheng Yang harrumphed coldly . He turned to Elder Cheng and said, "Bring me the report sent in by the Master Teacher Pavilion . I want to see with my own eyes what they have written!"
"This…" Elder Cheng never could have imagined that the young chief of the Glacier Plain Court would actually be the Progeny of Combat's senior . In an instant, all of the words that he had prepared were rendered meaningless . He hesitated for a moment before fearfully handing a jade token over . "The Master Teacher Pavilion didn't send over a report but… a Master Teacher Arrest Warrant!"
"Arrest warrant? For who? My teacher?" Alarmed to hear those words, Zheng Yang hurriedly grabbed the jade token from Elder Cheng's eyes to look through it .
Slowly, his face turned as cold as the night of the winter solstice .
"Ridiculous! This is utterly ridiculous! Relay my orders, all combat masters are to keep a close eye on the movements of the Zhang Clan, the Glacier Plain Court, the Sanctum of Sages, and the Master Teacher Pavilion . As soon as any sign of my teacher is found, they are to report to me right away… How dare they dream of laying their hands on my teacher? Very well, let me see who has the guts to do so!"
"But…" Hearing the order, Elder Cheng's lips twitched in horror . "Progeny of Combat, I understand your feelings, but our Combat Master Hall is ultimately still a subsidiary of the Master Teacher Pavilion…"
Considering that the Master Teacher Pavilion had released an arrest warrant for Zhang Xuan, issuing such an order could be taken as insubordination and blatant defiance of the Master Teacher Pavilion .
"Subsidiary? Has our Combat Master Hall fallen so low as to simply watch helplessly as an innocent man is being framed? You don't have to worry about the Master Teacher Pavilion . Just rescue my teacher and bring him safely back here; I'll talk to the Master Teacher Pavilion about this!" Zheng Yang said as he swung his spear to the side, producing a sharp and menacing reverberation in the air .
"For many years, the Combat Master Hall has shed its blood to protecting mankind . It's about time we show the other powers our edge and dampen their arrogance! I'll let the entire Master Teacher Continent know that anyone who dares lay their hands on my teacher will have hell to pay!"
"Yes, Progeny of Combat!"
The elders clasped their fists, acknowledging Zheng Yang's orders .
Some of the faces were marked with bitterness while others were glowing in excitement .
But regardless of their own personal views, once the Progeny of Combat Decree was passed, no combat master would dare act in defiance against it .
…
In the Poison Hall…
"The Master Teacher Pavilion issued an arrest warrant on my teacher? Humph! I was still thinking of existing peacefully with them in view of the fact that my teacher is a master teacher, but it seems like there's no need for that anymore!"
At the very center of the hall, a young lady abruptly got to her feet as she gazed down at the people standing beneath her with ice-cold eyes .
Contrary to what most would think, the young lady's figure was not imposing in the least . Her young age and slightly emaciated figure made her look less authoritative than she would have hoped . However, there was a slight greenish mist drifting around her body that would send any cultivator instinctively trembling in fear . It felt as if even a 9-star master teacher would easily lose their life should they come into the range of the green mist .
The master of the Poison Hall, Wei Ruyan!
With the help of countless poison masters, she had successfully awoken her Innate Poison Body, bringing her prowess with poison to an unprecedented height . While she might still have been lacking compared to the founder of the Poison Hall, her means were definitely far above any of the current elders of the Poison Hall .
If she made a move, not even 9-star master teachers would be a match for her .
Lin Jianghai, one of the Four Eminences of the Poison Hall, clasped his fist and said, "The Master Teacher Pavilion has been on their high horse for too long; I think it's high time for us to tear down their ivory tower! Hall Master, feel free to command us!"
Due to his contribution in Wei Ruyan's succession as the new hall master, he was granted a position second only to Wei Ruyan herself in the Poison Hall . On top of that, Wei Ruyan had also offered him pointers on his poison arts, thus bringing his command of poison to a level where even the two Guardians of the Poison Hall would not be a match for him anymore .
"I want all members of the Poison Hall to set out and search for my teacher . As soon as the whereabouts of my teacher are confirmed, you are to report the news to me right away while protecting him from the shadows . If anyone dares make a move on him, eliminate that person right away… It's high time for our Poison Hall made a move lest the continent forgets that we are still alive and kicking!" Wei Ruyan harrumphed coldly .
Despite her young age, she had already gone through numerous life and death situations . Perhaps due to those experiences, authority and power did not hold much significance to her .
If there was anything that she truly valued, it would be her teacher . Her teacher had done simply too much for her . Without her teacher, there would not be the current her . So, if anyone dared to lay their filthy hands on her teacher, well…
