"There must be a mastermind behind such a large scale riot. Is there a conclusion?" Fang Yun asked.
Fang Shouye replied, "Governor, after the interrogators said that their actions were suspected of treason, many people were scared out of their wits and immediately confessed. Most of them were instructed by the local Qingjiang Trading Company or other Gyeongo merchants. They all received benefits."
"I see." Fang Yun nodded lightly.
Fang Yun didn't say anything, but everyone at the meeting already knew who the real mastermind behind the scenes was.
Many of the Jingguo people present broke out in cold sweat. The Gyeongo people were too calculative. One was in the light, one was in the dark. If Fang Yun was not Zhang Longxiang, even if he had three heads and six arms, he would still be defeated by the Gyeongo people.
"This matter involves a lot of people. I have to continue to deal with it, so I have to leave. I hope you can forgive me." Fang Shouye said methodically.
"Thank you, Governor Fang." Fang Yundao said.
Fang Shouye bowed and quickly left.
The two of them only spoke a few dozen sentences, but there were many hidden meanings.
Some people were laughing at the Small Ditch Kingdom, some were thinking about the smashing and looting, and some were deducing how Gyeongo and Fang Yun fought each other. Many knowledgeable officials directly sent letters to Fang Yun, wanting to know what the "emergency plan" was.
After Fang Shouye left, Fang Yundao said, "Since the riot has subsided, it will not affect the meeting. The meeting will continue as usual. Oh … I forgot. The meeting seems to have ended because the leader of the Four Great Scholars has been decided. The winner has been decided! "
Fang Yun looked down at where Qing Jun and Zong Lei were sitting.
However, Lei Tingzhen, Zong Ganyu, and Qing Jun all had strange smiles on their faces.
Lei Tingzhen's smile had a hint of viciousness, Zong Ganyu's smile had a hint of contempt, and Qing Jun's smile had a hint of joy, as if he had taken revenge.
Other than the three people in charge, all the people with high status around them also had subtle changes in their expressions. They were all smiling.
Even Zong Wuyuan, who had been repeatedly defeated by Fang Yun, was smiling.
They were smiling, but the people of Jingguo could not.
At this point, Fang Yun clearly had victory in his hands, but these people did not fall into extreme emotions. They did not go crazy, angry, or despair. Instead, they seemed to be collectively laughing at Fang Yun...... They were not stupid.. there was only one possibility... They did not think that they had not lost, even if Fang Yun had revealed his trump card.
The hearts of the people from the Jing Kingdom sank. Just a moment ago, even the chaos in various parts of Elephant State had been easily extinguished by Fang Yun. They thought that the entire Cultural Gathering was under Fang Yun's control, but now, they no longer had that confidence.
Many people immediately sent letters to Fang Yun.
"Something's wrong. You have to be careful!"
....... of something..
"They haven't even used their trump cards yet!"
.. "Old Man... I don't know what they will do, but since they are so confident, they must have some tricks up their sleeves."
At this moment, Zong Wuyuan smiled and said contemptuously, "That's all there is to it."
Fang Yun looked up at the sky, then lowered his head and looked at Zong Wuyuan. He did not say a word.
Most of the people present at the Scholarly Meeting did not know what to do. Logically speaking, the Scholarly Meeting should have been closed at this point because, from beginning to end, the entire Scholarly Meeting had been dominated by Fang Yun. But why did those people not care at all? Why was Zong Wuyuan still laughing at Fang Yun?
Zong Wuyuan patted his clothes and sat down again. He leaned back against the chair and looked up at Fang Yun. He smiled and said.
"If someone says that you, Fang Yun, have no talent, I will be the first to scold him. If someone says that you, Fang Yun, have no intelligence, I will also be the first to scold him. I have learned a lot from this Literary Meeting. That is, not only can I not easily admit defeat, before the real ending, I cannot easily claim victory. I originally thought that I had made a small mistake, causing me to lose my courage. I did not know how long it would take for me to improve, and I felt that I was inferior to you. But now, if someone says that you are better than me, I will only laugh coldly. Seeing the great Xusheng make the same mistake as me, I am very happy, but also a little sad. I always thought that you were hard to deal with, but when you said 'victory has been decided', something in my heart shattered. You, from today onwards, are not worthy of me, Zong Wuyuan's, and also not worthy of my Zong Family's attention. "
Zong Wuyuan's voice spread throughout the Literary Meeting. Many people wanted to scold him, but they held back. They wanted to continue listening and see Fang Yun's reaction.
However, they were disappointed. Fang Yun only looked at Zong Wuyuan quietly. He did not have the slightest bit of doubt or worry, just like before.
Zong Wuyuan's counterattack was very powerful and very skillful, but Fang Yun did not respond. It was as if he had hit cotton wool.
Zong Wuyuan sneered, "You pretended to be very calm, but unfortunately, your arrogance was exposed. Indeed, the fact that you are Zhang Longxiang, before you personally reveal it, I will definitely not believe it. After all, your imitation of Zhang Longxiang is too, too, too similar. It can even be said that you have created a completely new person. You think that this kind of small trick can decide everything, you think that by knowing this secret, you can retaliate against us. But you still do not understand one point. In this world, strength is the foundation. Everything else is just a small detail that depends on strength. What makes me laugh is that you have only grasped the small details, but you think that you have grasped everything. It is like a child in diapers holding a wooden sword, wanting to fight with a veteran. The veteran does not draw his sword, does not attack, does not kill, but you think that the veteran has lost. "
"This story is a bit worse than the previous ones." Fang Yun replied with a smile.
However, the more calm Fang Yun was, the more worried many people were. Zong Wuyuan had almost made it clear that they would use their absolute power to deal with Fang Yun.
Zong Wuyuan suddenly stood up and said in an even louder voice.
"You do not know, the sword in the veteran's hand has slaughtered tens of thousands of soldiers. The veteran's hand can hold the universe! It is not that the veteran is afraid of you, but once the veteran makes a move, there will be no opponent in front of him! "
Fang Yundao, "I understand the logic, but can you put down the wooden sword in your hand that is pointing at me first?"
Many people did not know whether to laugh or cry. Fang Yun was really unpredictable. In the face of a storm, when the Zong, Lei and Gyeongo families were about to use their strongest power, he was still so calm and mocking the enemy. Very few people could do this.
Zong Wuyuan was about to fight back, but Fang Yun spoke again.
"After all, Bensei is facing the Demon Realm."
Fang Yun's tone was very calm, but the people only felt a chill in front of them. His iron blood was everywhere, and his battle intent was soaring to the sky.
Many people smiled faintly, not because they were mocking Zong Wuyuan, but because they were thinking back to Fang Yun's experiences and his contributions. When they thought about what Zong Wuyuan had said, an indescribable joy rose in their hearts.
Fang Yun was not wrong. Fang Yun was facing the Demon Realm, and behind Fang Yun was the entire Saint Origin Continent, and all of humanity.
Because Fang Yun was standing in front of them, everyone was able to smile whenever they wanted.
Many people looked at Zong Wuyuan with pity, because he looked more like the child in diapers holding a wooden sword.
