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

Outside Baiyan Academy, Zhou Qingkai stood at the entrance, looking around anxiously with a worried expression on his face.

He had been waiting for nearly half an hour, but Patriarch Chen had not yet shown up... Could he have forgotten?

He also didn't know how the situation with the young master was progressing, whether they could successfully drive out the Miscellaneous Duties Teacher.

Just as he was wondering if he hadn't made things clear the day before, a crisp sound of horse hooves approached from the end of the street, followed by a vibrant Scarlet horse galloping toward them, ridden by a middle-aged man—none other than Patriarch Chen Xiao.

"Is that horse... Scarlet?"

Startled, Zhou Qingkai was filled with excitement.

He had once accompanied Chen Hao to the horse farm and had the good fortune to see this wild horse that possessed a Primordial Beast's bloodline. It was notoriously difficult to tame, and even his father wasn't confident in handling it. Unexpectedly, just after a few days of not seeing it, not only had it become obedient, but it was also being ridden here...

In his astonished gaze, Scarlet arrived in front of him, transitioning from a rapid run to an abrupt halt in just a breath's time. Even so, the horse's muscles didn't tremble at all, showcasing its formidable strength.

As expected of Baiyan Horse Farm's most famous thousand-li horse, it was envy-inducing.

"Patriarch Chen... Young Master Chen asked me to wait for you here." Zhou Qingkai hurriedly greeted him.

"Hmm, where is Hao'er?" Chen Xiao dismounted.

"The young master has gone to that Miscellaneous Duties Teacher's classroom, planning to expose him publicly."

Zhou Qingkai hurriedly explained.

"To rise up from where one falls, not merely waiting for me, that's truly my son Chen Xiao's style! Very good, very good!"

He laughed heartily and nodded in satisfaction: "Let's go, let's see!"

He had deliberately arrived late just to see his son's reaction. Had his son merely waited for him, relying on the family and on his father, he would have been quite disappointed, but now, he was thoroughly satisfied.

A man should seek revenge if bullied, no matter the outcome. As long as there's someone to back him up on his end, if he lacked even this much initiative, how could he ever control the family in the future?

"Yes!"

Nodding his head, Zhou Qingkai was about to lead the way when suddenly Wang Yuxing rushed over in a hurry. Upon seeing Patriarch Chen Xiao, he immediately sighed in relief: "Patriarch Chen, you're finally here... Young Master Chen, he, he's run into trouble!"

"What's the matter? Why the rush?" Chen Xiao frowned.

Wang Yuxing said, "Young Master Chen went to confront that Miscellaneous Duties Teacher, but unexpectedly... the School Head showed up and got very angry, and straight away issued a Principal's Seal intending to expel Young Master Chen!"

When he accompanied Liu Tianzheng into the room, he saw this scene and hurried over, fearing that the young master might get into trouble. As for what specifically had happened, he was not sure.

"Principal's Seal? Expulsion?" Chen Xiao's complexion turned steel blue.

Even Chen Hao knew the seriousness of a Principal's Seal, so he naturally understood its immense implications.

If Chen Hao were truly to be expelled like this, his life might well be over.

"Lu Mingrong..."

Clenching his fists tightly, Chen Xiao was almost exploding with rage.

Just to deal with a Miscellaneous Duties Teacher, to burden his son with such a big accusation—who gave him the audacity? Did he really think the Chen family was that easy to bully?

"Lead the way, I want to see just what outrageous thing Hao'er has done to be treated like this by Lu Mingrong. If Baiyan Academy fails to give me a satisfactory explanation today, don't blame me for being rude!"

Chen Xiao strode towards the campus buildings.

Fearing there wasn't enough time, the three of them moved swiftly, and soon reached Zhang Xuan's classroom.

At that time, the classroom's door was tightly closed. Even before they arrived, they could hear Chen Hao's slightly tearful apologies from inside.

"I was wrong, I'm scared, I'm really scared! School Head Lu, Teacher Zhang, I didn't mean to, I'm sorry, it was my fault, I apologize!"

"Dammit!"

Chen Xiao was instantly enraged.

This was his son, the Junior Patriarch Chen, groveling in apology to others... Why should he!

Unable to restrain himself any longer, Chen Xiao kicked the door in and, without even entering, he bellowed: "Hao'er, with me here today, you don't need to apologize to anyone, I'll see who dares to pressure you!"

Boom!

The classroom door burst open, and Chen Xiao immediately saw the scene inside: Lu Mingrong and about fifteen elders stood to one side, while around fifteen students stood on the other, nearly thirty people crammed into the tight classroom, which looked rather crowded. His son was at the very inside, not immediately visible.

As he looked over at everyone, their eyes also unanimously turned towards him, all wanting to see who this reckless intruder who burst into the room was.

Patriarch Chen didn't mind and strode forward quickly, soon seeing his son.

Chen Hao, no longer as proud and confident as before, appeared nervous and concerned. Seeing his father arrive, his face flushed with excitement, and he hurriedly clasped his fists: "Dad!"

Chen Xiao's heart ached a little, and he snorted coldly: "Today, I stand here, and I'll see who dares to point fingers at Hao'er again, who dares to expel him!"

School Head Lu did not expect this man to charge into the school so recklessly and break the classroom door. His face turned very ugly.

"Patriarch Chen, you burst into the school and blatantly kicked down a classroom door, what are you trying to do?"

Your son grievously offended Teacher Zhang, I thought as a patriarch, you'd be more courteous, but you're even worse...

"What am I trying to do? Lu Mingrong, I want to ask you, what are you trying to do! Where exactly did my son go wrong, that you would go as far as to issue a Principal's Seal to expel him?"

Chen Xiao's eyes narrowed.
