Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1518 Everyone is here
  Xiaomeng's reaction to Fusu's deliberate flattery or promotion was:

"Always have no desire, so as to observe its wonderfulness; always have desire, so as to observe its pleasure."

"That's because Confucius has not yet reached his realm, otherwise there wouldn't be such a fuss."

If Fusu just raised a Taoist hand in a subtle way, Xiaomeng just pointed his nose in front of others and started a group fight.

In the holy land of Confucianism, she openly belittled the sages and ancestors who despised other people's Confucianism, which made the Confucian disciples with less concentration look at her angrily.

If they hadn't estimated Fusu's attitude, they would definitely start a fight.

But for Xiaomeng, these... are all illusions.

For people from the Taoist Tianzong, there is no need to belittle or elevate, it is just an explanation of the facts they think in their hearts.

In Xiao Meng's view, Confucius would praise Lao Tzu for being extraordinary, but he was not sufficiently advanced and was just making a fuss.

On the Confucian side, the three leading figures of Qi and Lu looked calm, but they understood why Fusu invited the head of Tianzong to come over.

It seems that they want to use the old incident of Confucius meeting Lao Tzu to gain the upper hand and overwhelm them.

The most embarrassing thing is that because Confucius recognized Laozi as his half-master, Confucianism has always been one generation lower than Taoism.

Xiao Meng is a close disciple of Bei Mingzi. He is the junior in Tianzong and is the same generation as Chi Songzi, who has passed away long ago. Chi Songzi Xiaoyaozi is the same generation as Xunzi.

Therefore, Xiaomeng is one generation higher than Fu Nian and others who are much older than her.

The old and cunning Chu Nan Gong saw through the embarrassment of the Confucian family at a glance, and couldn't help but secretly laugh.

Of course, he doesn't care whether Confucianism suffers a loss or the empire suffers. He just comes to have fun, and he will be satisfied if he has fun.

At this time, Gongsun Linglong half-covered her face with a mask and fan and leaned toward Chu Nan Gong:

"Nangong, who is this Xiaomeng? A little girl talking so wildly?"

Gongsun Linglong has always been a consistent person, so she never hides her hostility towards beautiful women.

At the same time, speaking out loud and showing off in a high profile has always been a method used by their celebrities, so she doesn't want others to be in the limelight.

To sum up, one can imagine her attitude towards Xiao Meng.

However, as a famous person, even if you want to target someone, you can only use words. If you want to use words to deal with someone, you must first understand the other person.

Unfortunately, Gongsun Linglong knew very little about Tianzong, and knew nothing about Xiaomeng. She had to find a knowledgeable person to find out first.

Chu Nanggong was also willing to chat with others and replied with a smile:
  "Three hundred years ago, Taoism split into two sects, Heaven and Man, because of their different understanding of Tao. They have been fighting endlessly. You should know this."

"This Master Xiaomeng is the head of the Tianzong of this generation."

"So don't underestimate her just because she is young. In fact, her seniority is extremely high and unfathomable."

Chu Nan Gong was considered kind-hearted at this moment, and he clearly reminded Gongsun Linglong that this was a tough guy and not to be provoked.

"Head of Tianzong...isn't it Chisongzi?" Gongsun Linglong muttered subconsciously after hearing this.

Chu Nangong laughed at these words, "I know you famous people don't care about Tianzong, but this information update is too late."

"Chi Songzi, the previous head of Tianzong, passed away a long time ago."

Gongsun Linglong curled her lips when she heard this and did not refute Chu Nan Gong's remarks.

These famous people really don't care about Taoism, especially Tianzong - they are talkers and need to be in contact with people the most, while Tianzong is the sect that is least willing to contact people. The two families are almost parallel.

However, she still understood Chu Nan Gong's previous reminder, and now gave up the idea of ​​targeting Xiaomeng.

But at the same time, he was more interested in Xiaomeng, or in other words, more interested in gossip.

"In this way, she and Xiaoyaozi from Renzong are sworn enemies!"

"In the sword debate between heaven and man five years ago, who lost and who won?"

"No! I'm really stupid. The sword debate between heaven and man was about competing for Xue Ji. Now the person in charge of Xue Ji is Xiaoyaozi. That little girl must have lost!" Gongsun Linglong's tone was full of gloating - she is such a person Real and unpretentious... aunt.

Just when Chu Nan Gong was about to explain, Fu Nian spoke. He bowed his hands to Xiao Meng and said hello:

"Senior Xiaomeng, Confucian Fu Nian is polite."

"Why isn't Xun Kuang here?" Xiao Meng glanced at him and asked.

The tone is very rude, but others really can't find fault - they are peers!

"Uncle Master has long since ceased to care about worldly affairs. In addition, he is old and weak. We, the juniors, cannot force ourselves."

When Xiao Meng heard this, she looked away from Fu Nian and said nothing.

Duke Nan of Chu took the opportunity and said to Gongsun Linglong:

"It's true that Tianzong lost the sword debate between heaven and man five years ago, but the leader at that time was still Chi Songzi. He died of illness a year after losing to Xiaoyaozi."

"Oh, so she took over the position of head after that, but why have I never heard of her name in these years?" Gongsun Linglong was stunned at first, and then he had new doubts.

Chu Nanggong smiled and explained, "She is in retreat."

"She has been practicing in seclusion for ten years!"

"Ten years!" Gongsun Linglong was shocked by this exaggerated time span and almost couldn't suppress her voice.

"Yes, ten years." Chu Nan Gong nodded and replied, "Until not long ago, she just came out of seclusion and officially took over the position of head."

"It just so happens that it's time for a new round of sword debate between heaven and man. This may be God's will."

Gongsun Linglong is not interested in God's will. She only pays attention to one thing now:
  "This woman...how old is Xiaomeng this year?"

After ten years of seclusion, how old is thirty?
  "Hey, no more, no less, exactly eighteen."

"Ah!?" Gongsun Linglong was shocked again.

Eighteen years old... Doesn't this mean that this woman has been in seclusion since she was eight years old?

The people in Tianzong are really inhumane...

Fusu then waved to Xiaomeng and said, "Master Xiaomeng, please take a seat."

What Fusu left for Xiaomeng was his right-hand position - that is, the highest position on the empire's side, still above Li Si, which shows how much he attaches importance to Xiaomeng.

In the eyes of others, Fusu was so polite to others because he relied on Xiaomeng to check Confucianism. As for the actual reason for Fusu... only he himself knew.

Facing Fusu's invitation, Xiaomeng did not move and responded coldly:

"We haven't gathered yet, so why worry."

"Not all?"

Fusu was stunned when he said this.

Isn’t this done?
  What, did I invite someone else?

Just when Fusu was about to ask, a warm voice with a smile sounded:

"It seems it's not too late for me to come."

"Would you mind adding a seat for me?"

Hearing this familiar voice, the eyes of everyone present (except for the ordinary Confucian disciples... and Gongsun Linglong) couldn't help but flicker. They were similar to when Xiaomeng appeared, each with their own thoughts.

Then, Gu Xun's figure appeared out of thin air in the Kendo Hall, side by side with Xiao Meng, about three feet away.
