The Cangling Zhang family dominates the continent!

Chapter 190 Preparing to Return

"How could that be? Without your guidance, I don't know how many detours I would have to take."

Hearing Zhou Qi's words, Zhang Chentian quickly shook his head and said seriously.

"Okay, okay, let's stop flattering each other."

Zhou Qi smiled and waved his hand, then asked, "Are you going back to the clan today to participate in the clan competition?"

"Yes, teacher."

Zhang Chentian nodded and replied.

"With your current strength, you must be the best master in your family. Why are you still participating in the family competition?"

Zhou Qi looked at Zhang Chentian with confusion and asked in bewilderment.

"This has nothing to do with strength. This is stipulated by family law, and no one can violate it."

Zhang Chentian explained seriously:

“Besides, this is the first competition held by our Zhang family, so of course we have to take it seriously.

As a member of the Zhang family, I should set an example and abide by the family rules.

Only in this way can we set a good example for future generations and make them understand the importance of the law.

Otherwise, if no one obeys the law, then the law loses its meaning.”

"Hahaha, that's true!"

Zhou Qi couldn't help but laugh out loud, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "With you in the Zhang family, the future is promising!"

His eyes were full of admiration, and he did not hide his admiration for Zhang Chentian.

"Teacher, please stop praising me, or I'll feel embarrassed."

Zhang Chentian scratched his head shyly and smiled brightly.

"Okay, I won't say much then. This is my understanding of the formation, and these are some fourth- and fifth-order formation diagrams. I hope they will be helpful to you."

As he spoke, Zhou Qi took out a thick book and several jade slips emitting faint light from his storage ring and gently placed them in front of Zhang Chentian.

"Thank you, teacher!"

Looking at these precious things in front of him, Zhang Chentian's heart was filled with gratitude. He bowed deeply to Zhou Qi to express his gratitude.

Then, with excitement in his heart, he walked towards the door with brisk steps.

Zhang Chentian slowly walked out of the gate of the Formation Master Guild, raised his head and looked up at the sky.

At this time, the sun was high in the sky, emitting dazzling light, as if illuminating the whole world.

The brilliant light poured down unhindered, gently falling on his face, bringing him traces of warmth and comfort.

Zhang Chentian narrowed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and enjoyed the tranquility and beauty of the moment.

He stood there quietly, feeling the warmth of the sun on his body.

There were people coming and going around him, and it was very lively, but his eyes were always fixed on the sky.

At this moment, he felt his mind become extremely open, as if all his worries and pressures had disappeared at this moment.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile.

His figure flashed, and the next second, Zhang Chentian appeared at the gate of the palace.

"Greetings to the Prince Consort!"

Seeing the visitor, the guards at the door saluted Zhang Chentian one after another.

"Well, thank you for your hard work!"

Zhang Chentian nodded to them, then walked into the palace.

The road was smooth and Zhang Chentian came directly to the courtyard where Xia Aoxue lived.

"I've met the young master!"

Seeing Zhang Chentian's figure, the maid Qing'er hurried over and bowed respectfully.

"No need to be polite!"

Zhang Chentian waved his hand, signaling her to stand up.

"Sir, Her Royal Highness the Princess is still in seclusion, so she cannot meet you now."

Qing'er said cautiously.

"It's okay, I'll wait here!"

Zhang Chentian nodded slightly, without showing any dissatisfaction on his face.

So he found a quiet corner in the yard, sat down, closed his eyes, and began to practice.

However, before he could get into the mood, a soft voice suddenly broke his calm.

"Aren't you in seclusion? How did you know I was here?"

Zhang Chentian opened his eyes and said in surprise as he looked at the beautiful woman in a purple dress in front of him.

Her skin is as white as snow, her eyes are as clear as water, and her long black hair flutters in the wind, exuding a charming aura.

"Of course it was Xiao Cai who told me your whereabouts!"

Xia Aoxue smiled, and the colored TV marten on her shoulder waved its little paws at Zhang Chentian, making a "chirp" sound from its mouth.

Zhang Chentian looked at the cute little mink and his heart was filled with love.

He reached out and touched its head, feeling its soft fur and warm body temperature.

"So that's how it is!" Zhang Chentian looked at this fourth-order early-stage color TV marten, and a look of understanding appeared on his face.

"I don't know where Xiaobai is now. I haven't heard from him since I released him a few months ago. It seems he got stuck in the tower."

Zhang Chentian thought of the naughty white tiger and couldn't help feeling a headache, with a look of helplessness on his face.

However, despite the lack of news about Xiaobai, Zhang Chentian was not very worried.

Because through the equal contract, he was able to sense that Xiaobai was not in danger, but was just missing.

"Maybe it has already returned to the Zhang family. After all, it knows that you must return to the family to participate in the family competition."

Xia Aoxue sat next to Zhang Chentian, leaning on his shoulder and said with a smile, her eyes full of tenderness.

"That's also possible."

Zhang Chentian nodded in agreement.

After all, he knew Xiaobai very well. Perhaps when he returned to his family, he would be surprised to find that Xiaobai had been waiting for him for a long time.

"It's time for us to return to the Zhang family. I haven't taken you to meet my parents and clan members yet."

Zhang Chentian turned his head and gently stroked Xia Aoxue's hair, speaking softly, his eyes full of tenderness and love.

Xia Aoxue nodded slightly, a happy smile on her face, and responded softly: "Yeah, okay!"

The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, creating mottled light and shadows, illuminating their beautiful figures.

"I don't know if your parents will like me."

Xia Aoxue murmured these words softly with a nervous mood.

There was a hint of nervousness and anticipation in her eyes, as if she was imagining the scene of meeting Zhang Chentian's family.

She prayed silently in her heart, hoping to leave a good impression on them.

"I'm sure you'll like it! Don't worry, don't you have confidence in yourself?"

Zhang Chentian patted Xia Aoxue's shoulder comfortingly, with a confident smile on his face.

"Hmph~ Of course not, it's just... well, after all, this is my first time experiencing something like this, so it's inevitable that I'm a little nervous."

Xia Aoxue blushed and replied coquettishly.

She bit her lip lightly, trying to hide her inner anxiety, but the slight tremor in her voice still revealed her true emotions.

Zhang Chentian looked at Xia Aoxue's cute appearance and couldn't help laughing out loud:

"Haha, don't worry, my family is very kind and they will definitely like you."

After hearing this, Xia Aoxue felt a little relieved, but the tension still lingered.
