Chapter 1622: 1622
Back when they were still at the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy, Luo Ruoxin had taken him to the Saint Ascension Platform, and they had managed to get into the folded space embedded in the area . They had found Kong shi's personal writing, but Luo Ruoxin had given it to him without any hesitation, even claiming that she could easily obtain as much of it as she wanted .
Later on, when they entered the Qiu Wu Palace, she had said that she was searching for an object and displayed no interest toward Ancient Sage Qiu Wu's heritage at all…
And right now, she had even spoken of a high-tier breakthrough method that only Kong shi had managed to successfully pull off… Could she possibly have some kind of intimate relation to Kong shi?
Otherwise, how could she possibly know so much about him?
"I…" Facing the abrupt question, Luo Ruoxin was taken aback for a moment before lowering her head silently . When she raised her head once more, there was a slight pleading look in her eyes as she said, "Please don't ask or guess anymore . I really can't tell you anything . "
"But…" Seeing that Luo Ruoxin was unwilling to share anything about herself, Zhang Xuan could not help but feel a little frustrated . Knowing that there was no way around it, he sighed deeply and said, "Alright, I promise not to probe any further on that . But in exchange, will you at least tell me if your current name is real?"
After saying those words, he looked at Luo Ruoxin with a nervous look on his face .
Previously, it was precisely because Luo Qiqi hid her real name from him that he had ended up in such a huge misunderstanding . He was determined not to make the same mistake again .
It was fine if Luo Ruoxin was unwilling to share her real identity . As long as he had her name, he was confident that he would eventually be able to find her .
Luo Ruoxin was initially unwilling to answer, but looking at Zhang Xuan's expression, her heart softened . Shaking her head helplessly, she replied, "It isn't . "
It was as he had guessed!
Staring intently at Luo Ruoxin, Zhang Xuan asked on, "If Luo Ruoxin isn't your real name, then…"
He had thought that it was weird how there was not a 'Luo Clan' among the Hundred Schools of Philosophers, and the fact that Luo Ruoxin did not really go by the surname of 'Luo' explained a lot about this!
"Please don't ask me any more than this," Luo Ruoxin pleaded . "It's not that I don't want to reveal my real identity to you, but I can't! If I speak, it won't just be me that suffers—even you will face a great calamity!"
"… I understand . I won't ask anymore . "
This was not the first time that Luo Ruoxin had said such words . While Zhang Xuan was not sure what kind of trouble they would face, considering how she was so frightened despite the power that she wielded, it was likely to be far more complicated than he had thought .
"As far as I know, a normal breakthrough to Great Sage shouldn't draw in the heavenly flames . How did Kong shi manage to do it? Did he use some kind of unique secret art?" Zhang Xuan quickly changed the topic back .
Usually, it was only during a breakthrough to Great Sage 2-dan Aureate Body realm that the heavenly flames would be summoned . The heavenly flames would then sear the impurities within one's body in order to form a truly undefilable physique!
In other words, Kong shi would have used some kind of secret art in order to draw the heavenly flames while pushing for a breakthrough to Great Sage 1-dan .
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was not probing any deeper into her identity, Luo Ruoxin heaved a sigh of relief before answering . "I'm not too sure how he managed to do it either, but I do know where to find the method to do so . "
"Where?"
If he could find the secret art required to bring the heavenly flames upon him to temper his body and Spiritual Perception, not only would he be able to enhance his fighting prowess, he would also be able to resolve the threat of the Innate Fetal Poison . In a sense, this was killing two birds with one stone .
"The Master Teacher Pavilion headquarters," Luo Ruoxin replied . "Back then, when Kong shi was pushing for a breakthrough to Great Sage, he had already founded the Master Teacher Pavilion . It was in the headquarters that he found the inspiration to create the secret art and successfully advanced his cultivation to Great Sage .
"So, as long as you head to the Master Teacher Pavilion headquarters, you should be able to find the secret art…"
Halfway through Luo Ruoxin's words, Zhang Xuan's eyebrows suddenly shot up . He flicked his wrist, and a Communication Jade Token materialized in his grasp .
"Hmm?"
Seeing Zhang Xuan's actions, the young lady swiftly realized that something had happened . "Did something happen?"
"Something has happened to the Sanctum of Sages!" Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up .
The message on the Communication Jade Token that he had just received had come from Zhan shi of the Sanctum of Sages .
"The Sanctum of Sages?" Luo Ruoxin frowned .
"Un . " Zhang Xuan nodded . He quickly went through the contents of it and said, "Someone has barged into the Inner Sanctum… I need to head over to take a look!"
As he said those words, he got to his feet .
"I'll follow you," Luo Ruoxin said .
