"Previously, I mistakenly thought that Fang Xusheng had failed. Now, I formally apologize to Fang Xusheng. Disciple was ignorant, please forgive me, Teacher!"
"Disciple was ignorant, please forgive me, Teacher!"
Outside Yue Yang Tower, tens of thousands of scholars bowed deeply with their hands clasped in front of them, calling Fang Yun their teacher.
"The ignorant are not guilty." Fang Yun said magnanimously.
Seeing this, the people from the Zong and Lei families felt an inexplicable urge to perish together with Fang Yun at this moment.
Because at this time, those who took the initiative to apologize to Fang Yun were not the kind of people who treated Fang Yun as a mortal enemy. For example, those who slandered Fang Yun in Ba Kong Mountain did not apologize to Fang Yun, even if Fang Yun could be considered the World's Teacher.
These people who took the initiative to apologize to Fang Yun would, from now on, be branded with the thought of letting Fang Yun down. At the same time, they would also be branded with the idea that Fang Yun was always right. From now on, their attitude towards Fang Yun would clearly change. It could even be said that in the future, these people would consider themselves as Fang Yun's disciples.
These people would definitely have a profound impact on the various countries.
In the past, Kong Sheng had three thousand disciples, and most of them were branded with Kong Sheng's mark.
However, what these people were truly afraid of was not only the identity of the World's Teacher, but also the power that these disciples would give Fang Yun.
The Human Race had been studying Kong Sheng's experiences before he became a Saint, and now, they had come to a consensus. Kong Sheng's great achievements were not only because he had various advantages, but also because his disciples had been silently helping him. And those disciples had a great influence on the Human Race, forming an unseen blessing that was directed towards Kong Sheng.
Kong Sheng taught his disciples powerful abilities and beliefs, and his disciples would spread everything they learned to others. When those who received Kong Sheng's favor accumulated to a certain extent, they would inevitably repay Kong Sheng.
What also made the Zong and Lei families feel helpless was that even though Fang Yun had been slandered by so many scholars, even though he had been scolded as the culprit who caused the various families to lose the bet, and even though he had been recognized as the winner of the bet with the Demon Realm, Fang Yun wasn't angry at all.
They even secretly suspected that Fang Yun knew very well that if he was angry and blamed those people, their guilt, gratitude, and respect for him would decrease, but he chose to forgive them. This was a premeditated plan to buy people's hearts. If a person could really have such foresight, he could only be described as terrifying. He could be compared with the old bureaucrats of various countries who had been in the officialdom for decades.
Everyone admitted their mistakes, and Fang Yun forgave them. Many people thought that this matter would be over.
The Chen Clan's Clan Lord, Chen Mingding, suddenly stood up, facing the Zong Clan's Clan Lord, Zong Ganyu.
"My Chen Family will always reserve a seat for Brother Zong. We welcome Brother Zong to visit us at any time. As for your Zong Clan's properties and the Desolate City, if it's convenient, please hand them over to our Chen Clan as soon as possible. Of course, our Chen Clan won't be like some people who didn't even know they had lost, and still insulted the Clan Lord and Xusheng. We won't even rush you. How about this, the Zong Clan can settle it within a year. Oh right, just now, there was a Zong Clan's Hanlin who framed us for losing the bet because of Fang Yun. He said that Fang Yun was like a stray dog. Then, I hope that Hanlin will apologize to Fang Xusheng now. "
Chen Mingding finished his words with a smile.
Just now, Zong Ganyu had ridiculed the Chen Clan.
The Zong Clan's people were anxious and angry. Chen Mingding's words were like a needle hidden in silk floss. Although he expressed humility, he also deliberately pointed out the Zong Clan's despicable actions. However, they couldn't refute because the Chen Clan had indeed done much better than the Zong Clan.
After listening to Chen Mingding's words, many experienced people sighed secretly. They didn't know if they should say that Fang Yun was lucky or not. Fang Yun treated those people with a gentlemanly attitude, while Chen Mingding helped Fang Yun to question them. Their cooperation was flawless.
Although Chen Mingding didn't name Zong Wuyuan, everyone was looking at Zong Wuyuan.
Zong Ganyu turned to look at his son, and his expression changed slightly. Zong Ganyu's eyes were in a daze, staring blankly at the sky. Something might have happened to Wen Dan.
"Wuyuan!" Zong Ganyu immediately used the power of Profound Words to wake Zong Wuyuan up, preventing him from sinking further.
Zong Wuyuan's body trembled slightly, and his eyes slowly regained their clarity, but his gaze was still dim.
Just as Zong Ganyu was about to speak, Zong Wuyuan proudly said, "Father, there's no need to say anymore. Wuyuan has already thought it through."
Zong Ganyu still felt that there was something wrong with Zong Wuyuan, but he couldn't pinpoint exactly what the problem was. He just nodded lightly and said, "It's good that you have thought it through."
At this time, a Jingguo Grand Scholar said, "You have thought it through? Very good, then apologize to Fang Xusheng. Admit that you can't tell the difference between winning and losing, and admit that you are the stray dog. "
Zong Wuyuan didn't even look at that person, and continued to speak to Zong Ganyu, "We have indeed underestimated Fang Yun, but who would have thought that he would be disguised as Zhang Longxiang by Book Hill? This matter isn't our fault, it's purely a coincidence! Of course, there's a very small possibility that Fang Yun has been scheming against our Zong family ever since he entered the literary world, so he purposely showed off his Literary Name and set up a trap to lure Lei Tingzhen step by step. No matter what, Fang Xusheng's intelligence is outstanding. "
Li Fanming revealed a disgusted expression, and said loudly, "Even at this time, you still dare to slander and frame Fang Yun, refusing to admit your mistake, praising him on the surface and belittling him in the dark. You are worse than a pig or a dog!"
Zong Wuyuan laughed and said, "Fanming, you are wrong about this. The premise of admitting my mistake is that I lost to Fang Yun, but did I lose? Don't jump to conclusions until the last moment, after all, I have already suffered a loss by jumping to conclusions too early. The reason I came to the literary gathering today was to watch the literary competition between Fang Xusheng and Zhang Longxiang, but now I realize that the most important thing is that I should learn from Fang Yun's deception, learn how to play two people with ease, and deceive the whole world! "
There was a slight commotion in the crowd, because Fang Yun's actions were indeed suspected of deception.
Fang Yun and Xusheng said on the city gate tower, "Thank you for your praise, Assistant Minister Zong, but there is one thing you still don't understand. I showed off my Literary Name in the literary world only to protect myself, to not be killed before reaching Pearl River, to survive! Speaking of scheming, I was scheming, but I was scheming how to avoid Marquis Lumen's suppression, how to avoid King Chu's plot, how to reach Two World Mountain alive, how to lead the human race to victory against the barbarians and demons, and obtain victory in the Battle of Bi Can! Allow me to say something from the bottom of my heart, at that time, I was already powerless to scheme against your Zong family and Lei family. More importantly, are you even worthy of being schemed against by me? "
"Well said!"
Many scholars shouted. Even an idiot could see that if he still wanted to scheme against the Zong family and Lei family at that time, it was simply adding fuel to the fire.
Zong Wuyuan still wanted to say something, but Fang Yun continued bluntly, "As for why I continued to hide my identity after victory in the Battle of Bi Can, it's very simple, I was retaliating! If you, Lei Ting, dare to threaten me, then I will let you know the price of doing so! If your Zong family dares to let Zhu Fengqiong control me, then I will let you know the consequences of controlling me! Actually, this is not important. What is important is that you idiots want me to suppress myself with literature, so I can only beat you at your own game, and watch your ugly state with the whole world. Friends from all over the world, what do you think of this great show? "
"It's beautiful!" Millions of people laughed and echoed Fang Yun's response.
