Beijing, Left Prime Minister's residence.
"Teacher, you seem to be in a bad mood." Ji Zhibai carefully placed the tea on the table in front of Mount Liu, then carefully retracted his hand. His fingers curled up and then slowly loosened.
Back then, the two of them were teacher and student. Although Ji Zhibai was in awe of Mount Liu, he was not submissive. Sometimes, he would even be impudent. When he was reprimanded by Mount Liu, Ji Zhibai would even be happy.
However, ever since his courage was destroyed, Ji Zhibai found that his teacher cared less and less about him. He gradually lowered his status and became more and more humble. He could no longer return to the pure teacher-student relationship of the past.
Ji Zhibai's hatred for Fang Yun grew day by day, and he was even dissatisfied with his teacher.
However, no matter what, Ji Zhibai would always be obedient in front of Mount Liu.
Mount Liu's face was fair and clean, and his appearance was refined. He still had the shadow of the handsome Jingguo man from back then, but now, his hair was white, and there were fine wrinkles on his forehead. There were even slight eye bags under his eyes.
Mount Liu sighed softly and shook his head slowly. "The dragon gate appears in the sea of learning. One hook catches ten thousand hearts. This is a legend passed down in the Ten Nations. You and Old Man have both been to the sea of learning, so you naturally understand the difficulties. Fang Yun, on the other hand, actually caught a hundred thousand fish by himself. Old Man wants to pretend to be calm, but he really can't. "
Ji Zhibai found it hard to accept that Mount Liu had changed the way he addressed himself as "Old Man", but he still comforted him. "Teacher, you're the most cultured. I heard that the Lei family and the Zong family are as anxious as ants on a hot pan. Lei Mo's courage cracked, and he was also called 'Stupid Xue Hai'. He vented his anger on the Lei family head, but the head couldn't hold it in and retaliated, causing internal strife in the Lei family. The head of the Lei family is just for show. Fortunately, the Lei family has to be stable. Otherwise, there might really be another head of the family. "
Even the experienced Left Prime Minister Mount Liu. When he heard the words' Stupid Xue Hai ', the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
How could a Grand Scholar be given such a nickname? He would never be able to clear his name.
He thought of the stigma. Mount Liu's expression darkened again.
It was in his ancestral hall on Tong Mountain outside the capital. There was also a couplet that read, "Green hills are blessed to bury the loyal bones, white iron is innocent to cast the traitorous officials." This was a great humiliation to him.
As a Grand Scholar, he was never sick. But after being attacked by the people, he actually spent seven days in a daze. If Ji Zhibai hadn't noticed something was wrong and recited the righteous principles of the Spring and Autumn Annals, he would have died. He might have made a huge mistake.
Ji Zhibai didn't notice Mount Liu's strange expression and continued, "However, I heard that Fang Yun was angered by the Lei family in Xue Hai. He said that once they leave the Bloodshine Ancient Land, he will use Wen Xing Long Jue's authority to abolish the Lei family's Dragonman bloodline! The Lei family values the Dragonman bloodline very much and protects it. If Fang Yun really takes away their bloodline, their hundreds of years of hard work will go to waste. At that time, the Lei family will probably have another head of the family. "
Mount Liu said slowly, "His Majesty, the West Sea Dragon Saint, will definitely not agree."
Ji Zhibai said helplessly, "The problem is …. I heard that in ancient times, Wen Xing Long Jue's status was higher than that of the normal Dragons, Half-saint. Of course. It's slightly inferior now. But even so, Fang Yun can use the excuse of the Lei family's Dragonman attacking Wen Xing Long Jue to deprive him of his bloodline, and the Dragon Saint of the Four Seas won't be able to stop him. "
"That makes sense. However, doesn't the Lei family have the protection of the Lightning Ancestor? "Mount Liu said.
Ji Zhibai hurriedly said, "That's what I asked my friend from the Lei Clan as well. However, I heard from him that once the Lei Clan uses the Lightning Ancestor's relics, they'll fight to the death. They will only use it at a critical moment. Moreover, Wen Xing Long Jue was scolded. It's normal to take away the Dragonman's bloodline, and the Lei family can't find a reason to refute it. The Lightning Ancestor is mysterious and powerful. However, he is only a legend among Dragons, and has never left any real legacy in the history of Dragons. Even the so-called Lightning Ancestor's inheritance might belong to the Dragon Saint. You must know this. "
Mount Liu nodded and said, "The Lei family can keep their composure, not bad. Although Fang Yun is strong now, he needs a long time to grow, and it's very likely that he will fall midway. If the Lei family really uses the Lightning Ancestor's inheritance to destroy Fang Yun, they will bear eternal infamy, and even … suffer a blood vengeance. "
When Ji Zhibai heard the words' blood vengeance ', he couldn't help but tremble.
Blood vengeance was originally a combination of 'revenge of traitors and blood relatives'. If a scholar encountered a great injustice or injustice and was unable to resolve it, they would seek revenge at all costs, even going against the scholar's principles to the point of inhumanity or traitor. This would be called blood vengeance.
Once blood vengeance was carried out, not only would the person seeking revenge be killed by the Notre-Dame, the person being avenged would also receive the most severe punishment from the Notre-Dame. Usually, they would be killed, and if the crime was too serious, their entire family would be executed, and other clansmen would be punished.
Ji Zhibai said, "Teacher, you're right. If the Lei family had only obstructed Fang Yun and caused the decline of the Divine Path, they would only leave behind infamy. However, if they had used the relic of the Thunder Ancestor to attack Fang Yun, even if they could not exterminate the Lei family because of their meritorious service in the Sacred Academy, there would be countless scholars who would seek revenge against the Lei family. If nothing unexpected happens, the Notre-Dame will probably not care at first, and only act when the Lei family is severely damaged. "
Mount Liu smiled and said, "However, Fang Yun's Divine Path ends here. The Bloodlight Ancient Land will definitely be his end."
Ji Zhibai said in a low voice, "Teacher, as far as I know, the highest ranking scholar in the Bloodlight Ancient Land is a Grand Scholar, and … the Grand Scholars of the Bloodlight Ancient Land will be corroded by the power of the Bloodlight Ancient Land. Their literary skills will be greatly weakened, and they will barely have the strength of a Grand Scholar."
"If Fang Yun can enter, others can naturally enter as well," Mount Liu said with a smile.
"Ah? But the path to the Bloodlight Ancient Land is firmly controlled by the Notre-Dame, and the Dongsheng Pavilion is in charge. Not even the Dragon Sage of the Four Seas can do anything about it, let alone the Lei family, "Ji Zhibai said.
"The Dragons and the Lei family have been trying to find the fragments of the Dragonslayer Saber, and their understanding of the Bloodlight Ancient Land is far above yours and mine. Since the Dragon Sage of the West Seas used Wen Xing Long Jue as bait to lure Fang Yun into the Bloodlight Ancient Land, it naturally has its reasons. "
"Teacher, you're right."
"The battle for the head of the nation is about to begin. Let's go in and take a look."
"Yes."
The two of them held their official seals, and their Divine Wills entered the Kong Shengwen Realm through the official seals and the Holy Temple.
Fang Yun and the other top scholars sat on green lotus leaves. Without the Confucian scholars around, these top scholars felt more at ease.
Mo Shan smiled. "Fang Xusheng, thank you for your help. Otherwise, Lei Shushan would have been Jia Kingdom's top scholar this year."
"Don't mention it, it's nothing," Fang Yun half-joked.
"After the competition, let's meet at the entrance of the Chong Wen Courtyard. I have something to give you," Mo Shan said with a smile.
"Oh? Thank you, Brother Mo. Let's talk about it later. " Fang Yun looked at Mo Shan with a kind gaze. He vaguely guessed that Mo Shan would probably gift the Mohist Mechanical Beast.
Although mechanical beasts were powerful, they required a lot of time to nurture and communicate with. Other than people from the Mo Family or the Gong Family, no other scholar would have that much time. Not being from the Mo Family or the Gong Family, spending the same amount of time on their own Divine Wills was far more beneficial than controlling a mechanical beast.
Since Mo Shan said that he would give him a mechanical beast, it naturally wouldn't be an ordinary one.
