"If one hears the Dao in the morning, one can die in the evening" had always been controversial in the Saint Origin World. Even the Kong family heads had never made a conclusion. Different Half-saint had different interpretations of this phrase.
One side believed that the meaning of this phrase was very simple. It meant that if one could obtain their Dao in the morning, it didn't matter even if they died at night.
The other side believed that this explanation didn't make sense logically. The meaning of this phrase was that if one understood the Dao of benevolence and righteousness, one could immediately die to defend it. Day and night was just an empty reference. After a slight extension, the meaning of this phrase was that the Dao of benevolence and righteousness was worth defending with one's life.
The former explanation emphasized "harvest", while the latter emphasized "mission". Some Confucian disciples believed that only those who agreed with the latter were true Confucians. This was because the latter emphasized "righteousness", while the former emphasized "profit". Confucians could pursue profit, but they emphasized righteousness.
The youth surnamed Fang said, "Don't use Confucius to pressure me. He's a Saint. What are we? We're all ordinary people! Even Confucius can't save me now. So, don't try to reason with me. I'm sick of it! "
"Brother Fang, you're too extreme. You should calm down and think slowly."
"The problem now is that I can't calm down!"
"If you can't even calm down, you're not worthy of being a scholar!"
"Bullshit! Do you dare say that you've been calm all this time? Do you dare say that you'll be calm after entering the Ice Emperor Palace? "
"This … I just think that you're too agitated."
"I'm about to die. Why can't I be agitated? Look at you. You just think that studying is more noble than worrying. In reality, what's the difference between you and me? We'll still die in the Ice Emperor Palace. If we're unlucky, we won't even be able to enter the Ice Emperor Palace! "
"Your words are biased."
The two sides continued to quarrel. Not long after, others joined in the debate. But soon, someone said in a low voice, "Stop arguing. Fang Xusheng is here."
The quarrel stopped abruptly. Everyone looked at Fang Yun.
"You can talk while marching, but you are forbidden to make loud noises. Do you know your crime?"
"Please punish us, Fang Xusheng!" Those people hurriedly lowered their heads and admitted their mistakes.
Fang Yun nodded and said, "This is a critical moment for the human race. It's normal for accidents to happen occasionally. Since you've admitted your mistakes, there's no need to punish you severely. In the next few days, you'll have to help with cooking."
Those people heaved a sigh of relief and said in unison, "Thank you, Fang Xusheng."
Fang Yun raised his chin at the man surnamed Fang and smiled, "Brother, why are you dragging me into this when we're having a nice chat?"
The young man surnamed Fang's face turned red, and he felt incomparably embarrassed. At the same time, he felt a little terrified. The people in the vicinity didn't even dare to breathe loudly. Fang Yun's status was so high, and his reputation had already far surpassed that of any great scholar in history. Even a peerless genius like Xiao Yutian was reprimanded to the point that he didn't dare to refute. Who knew what such a great figure would do? Love ↑ go △ little ↑ say △ w

There were many scholars in the vicinity who usually gave pointers to the country's rulers. There were even some who passed the Imperial Examinations and Hanlin Examinations. However, at this moment, they were all submissive like little wives.
The person who was arguing with the young man surnamed Fang earlier mustered up his courage and said, "Fang Xingyan was just envious of your strength. He didn't mean anything else."
Fang Yun smiled and said, "The one who didn't mean anything else was just taken away by the Xun family's Great Scholar. Of course, I know that this person from the same family has no ill intentions. I just feel that you shouldn't blindly deny him. Some of his words don't make sense. In fact, he even said what many people were thinking. "
Fang Xingyan suddenly raised his head and looked at Fang Yun with surprise and joy.
The others also looked at Fang Yun in surprise. They didn't expect Fang Yun to support Fang Xingyan in public. Even more so, they didn't expect Fang Yun to consider the problem from the perspective of the common people.
Fang Xingyan's words were a little extreme. However, most people didn't think that he was wrong. This was because he had bravely said what many people were thinking.
The few people who refuted Fang Xingyan didn't know what to do. They were even a little flustered. They suspected that Fang Yun was helping his own family. They were very disappointed. They didn't expect the great Fang Xusheng to be like this. No matter how wrong they were, they were still helping to prevent the situation from worsening. They were ensuring the order of the human army and preventing uncontrollable chaos.
Fang Yun continued, "However, I agree with the views of the brothers beside me. It's true that humans have seven emotions and six desires. It's wrong to suppress or even destroy human nature. However, the reason why we are stronger than beasts and demons is because we can control our emotions to the greatest extent. I support Fang Xingyan's complaints. I also support everyone speaking out their worries and fears. Anything that wants to shut them up is more ignorant and extreme than complaining. However, refuting and opposing is not part of this. "
Only then did everyone understand that Fang Yun was actually trying to be fair. He wouldn't object to anyone's complaints or statements, but he would object to their content and thoughts. This was a typical example of taking matters into account, not the person. This was a true gentleman's style.
The people who refuted Fang Yun let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that they had misunderstood. Fang Yun wasn't such a petty person.
Fang Xingyan said helplessly, "Fang Xusheng, I didn't mean to cause trouble. I just couldn't hold back my depression and fear of the Ice Emperor Palace. Yes, it's fear. Someone said before that we were like chickens, ducks, and geese that took the initiative to go to the butcher's house. We're not you. Whether it's strength or intelligence, we can't be compared to you. You can calm down and read, but we can't do that. "
Fang Yun nodded lightly and said, "The Confucian classics place too much emphasis on benevolence, righteousness, and propriety. It's even somewhat unreasonable. Do you know why?"
No one expected Fang Yun to directly criticize the highest sacred path of the Confucian school. No one dared to speak. A few people were even frightened. Although the Notre-Dame and the Hall of Propriety wouldn't punish people who talked about the sacred path of the Confucian school, they would definitely be retaliated against if there was a conflict with the sacred path of the aristocratic family.
Fang Yun swept his gaze over the people in front of him and said slowly, "Because it was the most basic and most desirable need of the human race."
Everyone was stunned.
Fang Xingyan asked, "Fang Xusheng, isn't the most basic need of the human race to have enough to eat and warm clothes?"
Fang Yun asked, "Do you know the situation of Saint Origin before Kong Sheng became a saint?"
"The Spring and Autumn Annals and some other history books have recorded it. I can recite it backwards, so of course I know. On the eve of Kong Sheng's sainthood, the Emperor of Great Zhou had already lost control of his vassals. Starting with Tian Chang killing the king of Qi, Saint Origin fell into extreme chaos. Even after Kong Sheng became a saint, the phenomenon of the heavens only delayed the chaos. While Kong Sheng was traveling the world and cultivating in seclusion, the human race went from the Spring and Autumn Annals to the even more chaotic Warring States Period. "Fang Xingyan said.
Fang Yun nodded and said, "Tian Chang killed the king of Qi. It can be said that those who steal a hook are punished. At the end of the Spring and Autumn Annals, righteousness collapsed and the vassals went to war. Let me ask you, in such a chaotic era, was having enough to eat and warm clothes a basic need? No, if they could live in a stable place, even if they were a little hungry or cold, 99% of them could still accept it. "
