Yan Yukong was the most low-key among the group. He first served in Ning An, then returned to Gyeongo to display his knowledge as a prefect. After that, he resigned. Since last year, he had been sorting out what he had learned, and his knowledge of scriptures was the most solid.
The Fang family was already the strongest and most promising power among the younger generation of the human race. Some scholars who supported Fang Yun felt that the name of the Fang family was not elegant, so they imitated the ancient Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest.
The Sages of the Bamboo Forest.
Some people in the Fang family liked this name, so they occasionally referred to themselves as the Sages of the Bamboo Forest.
However, some people did not care about this name, because they felt that the Fang family's achievements and reputation would definitely surpass the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest.
In fact, not only did the Fang family think so, but the outside world also thought highly of the Fang family.
Some people even said that the future of the Fang family was the future of the human race.
Before the gathering, Fang Yun had sent them a letter, saying that he would meet up with the Fang family once the matter of the school of miscellany was settled.
The Fang family members knew that Fang Yun was very busy, so they did not disturb him.
This was the first time the Fang family gathered together after Fang Yun returned from Saint Burial Valley.
"Shoulv, why didn't you go to the school of Legalism? What are you doing here?" Li Fanming sat on the sleeping rabbit and looked at Han Shoulv from the corner of his eyes.
Han Shoulv chuckled and said, "It's the same wherever I sit."
"Sigh, your school of Legalism is not honest." Li Fanming already knew that the school of Legalism and the school of miscellany had secretly made a deal.
Han Shoulv laughed dryly and said, "Let's not talk about this this time. We'll only talk about the gathering of the Sages of the Bamboo Forest and the Saint Dao Cultural Gathering."
Li Fanming rolled his eyes and said, "If we don't settle the school of miscellany, how can we have a gathering of the Sages of the Bamboo Forest? At most, it'll be a gathering of useless bamboo. Don't you think so, Zong Wude? "
Zong Wude was stunned, while Han Shoulv was secretly glad that Li Fanming did not continue to criticize him.
"This matter … has something to do with the school of miscellany. Although I'm in the Zong family, I'm a Confucian disciple. I can't interfere." Zong Wude hurriedly explained.
Before Li Fanming could speak, Yan Yukong said, "Fanming, there is nothing in this world that cannot be discussed. There are also people that cannot be discussed."
At this moment, Yan Yukong had completely changed from his youthful appearance back then. There was a faint beard between his nose and lips, and his figure was even taller than before. His appearance was not dignified. Just like before, he was elegant and carefree. However, because of his profound knowledge and the fact that he was already a member of the Hanlin Academy, his every word and action carried an imposing air.
"Ahem, I was just joking. After all, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I have to find something to talk about. Anyway, I have nothing to do. Sigh, the Fang Yun in your grandstand is really different now, "Li Fanming said.
Yan Yukong raised his head and looked at Fang Yun, who was surrounded by many purple robes. His eyes were exceptionally bright.
Han Shoulv said: "When I first met Fang Yun, I didn't expect him to soar so high. In just a few years, he had already become a Great Scholar of the Fourth Realm. If nothing goes wrong, he will soon become a literary ancestor, and in three to five years, he will become a literary hero. "
"Three to five years? Based on his momentum, it will take at most two years. "
"Heavenly Fate Forging takes ten years. I already overestimated Fang Yun when I said that it would take him three years," Han Shoulv said.
"Don't forget that he just came out of the Sacred Burial Valley. Since he obtained so many treasures, he will naturally have many treasures for forging heavenly fate. It will be easy for him to shorten it to one or two years."
"Uh, that's true."
"However, I won't let him become a literary hero so easily."
"Although only a Notre-Dame can make a literary hero, it has already become a realm, just like an Emperor. As long as he reaches that realm, he will naturally become a literary hero. I can't do anything about it."
"However, if Jingguo dies, how can any egg remain intact when the nest is overturned?"
Everyone fell silent.
This was also a topic that everyone had been avoiding.
"I don't think it's a big deal. I won't affect Fang Yun too much." Li Fanming pulled the rabbit's ear.
Han Shoulv sighed and said, "Let me say it. First, without Jingguo, many of Fang Yun's innovations and methods to expand the Divine Dao will be lost. He won't be able to effectively verify them. This is a huge loss and will definitely slow down his path to becoming a Saint. "
Li Fanming was unconvinced. "He has the Bloodlight Realm and the Ten Frigid Ancient Land. What is there to be afraid of?"
"How can Saint Origin be the same as an ancient land? In the Bloodlight Realm, his words are law. No matter how much he innovates, everyone can only listen to him. Saint Origin is different. There will definitely be discussions, friction, opposition, and many more tribulations. It is precisely because of these tribulations that we can verify whether Fang Yun's ideas are feasible or not. It will also continuously polish Fang Yun's Divine Dao. "
"What else?"
"Second, it will affect his mind. His homeland was destroyed, and it was after he exhausted all means and went through so much. In the end, he failed. What will you do? "Han Shoulv said.
Li Fanming did not refute.
"Third, it will probably be … his Divine Dao being stolen."
Everyone's expression changed.
Li Fanming agreed helplessly. "This is the big deal. Once Fang Yun is forced back to the Bloodlight Realm, the school of Miscellany and the other major forces will have countless excuses to take over everything that Fang Yun has created. Everyone knows that those were created by Fang Yun. They can't erase Fang Yun's credit and reputation as the creator. However, whether it is the Divine Dao or the benefits that follow, it will be difficult for Fang Yun to get a share. "
"Shouldn't we do something?" Jia Jingan asked.
Han Shoulv smiled bitterly. "I've been thinking about this for the past few days. In the end, the family head reminded me. He asked me, 'How does everyone in the Fang family compare to Fang Yun alone?'"
Everyone knew that Han Shoulv's answer would be 'not as good.' They also knew what Han Shoulv meant.
If even Fang Yun was unable to resist the school of Miscellany and was forced to retreat to the Bloodlight Realm, everyone in the Fang family would be powerless.
Yan Yukong said slowly, "We have time."
Zhang Zhixing said carelessly, "I'm the one with the foresight. I've been learning from Fang Yun. Now, the scale of my workshop is comparable to that of a second-rate trading company. Yukong is right. Right now, we can only watch. When I become a great scholar in the future and control all the power of the Zhang Heng family … "
Yan Yukong interrupted him. "It's enough that you understand. Don't speak nonsense."
Zhang Zhixing's expression froze. He nodded heavily.
The others nodded as well.
In reality, there were already many forces suppressing the Fang family. However, the Fang family wasn't Fang Yun's subordinate. Moreover, they had close ties with the various aristocratic families. They were also young, so those forces wouldn't be too harsh on them.
If they spread the news like Zhang Zhixing did, those forces that were hostile to Fang Yun would definitely deal with them just like how they dealt with Fang Yun.
Therefore, Yan Yukong only pointed out the direction and didn't mention the specific methods like Zhang Zhixing did.
Kong De Lun said, "Although Fang Yun will be suppressed, his life won't be in danger. This is probably the silver lining among the misfortune. We can't do anything for at least ten years. Let's see how Fang Yun resolves this. "
"The Saint Dao Scripture Conference is about to officially begin."
Everyone stopped talking and looked up at the high platform in front of them.
At the same time, the noise in the originally noisy and chaotic venue was rapidly weakening. Soon, it became extremely quiet. However, there were still large groups of scholars entering from outside.
