Confucian and Taoist scholar

Chapter 354: Tongxuan Preaching
It was obvious when Lu Zheng talked about the rules of Yunmeng Sect.

Even these young people of noble birth and with arrogant noses had to bear it with a pinch of their noses.

At least on the surface, in front of those people from Yunmeng Sect, no one said anything and sat down in an empty seat in an orderly manner.

"What's your name?"

The man with the golden halo behind him suddenly spoke.

Hearing this, Lu Zheng said slowly, "Lu Zheng."

The man said calmly, "Lu Zheng? I've got that."

"Who are you?" Lu Zheng asked.

The man's expression was a bit arrogant. "The Third Prince of Dayan, Murong Dan."

Lu Zheng nodded slightly, "It turns out to be Brother Dan, I've heard a lot about you."

"Pfft..."

Liu Changan couldn't help laughing out loud.

Murong Dan glanced sideways and looked at Liu Changan with an unfriendly look.

Liu Changan covered his mouth and quickly said, "Sorry, I just remembered something happy."

Murong Dan's forehead veins bulged, but he finally endured it.

You still can't lose your manners in public.

Lu Zheng remained calm and asked, "I am not very knowledgeable. I wonder what the golden wheel behind Brother Dan's head is?"

Murong Dan's face turned unhappy. "Just call me Murong. The thing behind me is not a golden wheel, but the manifestation of a golden sun."

"When someone was born, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky: two suns appeared in the same sky..."

Liu Changan, who was not far away, wanted to roll his eyes when he heard this. Just because of his natural vision, Murong Dan always looked down on people and even created a phantom of the vision to show off everywhere, as if he was afraid that others couldn't see it.

Lu Zheng nodded slightly, "I see. Thank you for your advice."

Qing Wan stretched her neck to look at the strange shadow behind Murong Dan. She felt that it was just so-so, not even as good as the sun and moon in Lu Zheng's little world.

Murong Dan's face showed pride. "From what I see in your aura, it seems you are practicing the Extreme Yang technique?"

"Haoran righteousness." Lu Zheng paused, then continued, "I also practiced martial arts and magic... my learning was complex."

"Oh," Murong Dan said quietly, "So you're a scholar. There are scholars here who follow the teachings of Confucius and Mencius. I wonder how your righteous spirit compares to theirs."

These words attracted some people's attention.

After Confucius and Mencius... Lu Zheng thought that everyone sitting here had a great background.

Qing Wan tilted her head and secretly looked at the people around her, wanting to see which ones were Confucian or Taoist scholars.

When she saw An Jing, Qing Wan couldn't help but grin.

At this moment, a fiery red figure flew over.

But in a blink of an eye, people had reached the platform in front.

It was a woman wearing a fiery red dress with a pretty face. She was Yun Xi, the elder of the Yunmeng Sect.

At the same time, a sense of momentum spread out, and the atmosphere in the square became quiet.

Everyone regained their composure and sat up straight.

Yun Xi looked at everyone, sat on the ground, and spoke slowly, "The Emperor said, since ancient times, those who have reached the heavens have believed that the origin of life is based on yin and yang..."

"Yang Qi is like the sky and the sun. If it loses its place, life will be shortened and its manifestation will be unclear. Therefore, the destiny of heaven should be as bright as the sun..."

Lu Zheng's expression changed slightly when he heard this. He understood these words, as they came from the Su Wen classic.

But when the elder in front of him narrated it, it carried a hint of extraordinary Dao rhyme, which made him inevitably have a deeper understanding.

Everyone present listened attentively.

Even Murong Dan put away his arrogance and looked like he was listening attentively.

In the square, there were people with faces that looked deep in thought, people who were puzzled, and people who had suddenly realized something. There were all kinds of people.

Not everyone can understand and comprehend what Yun Xi talks about.

Qing Wan listened attentively and took notes in a small notebook.

Yun Xi looked at Qing Wan, who was closest to her, and felt a strange feeling in her heart.

Among those present, Qing Wan had the lowest cultivation level and the worst qualifications. She was just a little goblin with some talent.

Qingwan was a little surprised that she could sit in the front seat and study very seriously.

Yun Xi recited a few scriptures and then stopped, giving everyone some time to comprehend and digest the content.

After a while, Yun Xi asked quietly, "What is fire?"

That was a question that no one immediately answered.

After all, if you don’t answer well in front of so many people, it would be a bit embarrassing.

"I know!"

Qingwan raised her little hand excitedly.

As a little adult, she wouldn't care that much.

Yun Xi smiled and asked, "Tell me?"

Qing Wan said seriously, "Fire is the form of all things... Well, to put it simply, it's a special form of matter. As long as certain environmental conditions are met, it can form flames..."

"Every substance in the world has several forms. Fire is one, water is another, and air is another..."

Qing Wan talked freely and expressed what was in her mind.

Yun Xi's eyes lit up when she heard this. She never expected that a little girl could have such a deep understanding.

Many people were confused and couldn't understand it for a while.

Qing Wan felt that she had said enough, so she said, "Senior, is what I said okay?"

Yun Xi smiled slightly. "Well said, you understand a lot. What's your name?"

"Qingwan!" Qingwan said excitedly.

Yun Xi asked again, "Who is your master?"

Qing Wan said seriously: "The master is the one who is wise, so you can be considered my master!"

These words made even the Yunmeng Sect disciples look at them sideways. Yun Xi couldn't help but smile slightly when he heard them.

Qing Wan continued, "Senior, I understand, but it's not easy to control fire, water, and other powers. What's going on?"

Yun Xi patiently explained, "Your cultivation level is insufficient, and your grasp of the balance of power is insufficient, which is the reason for this..."

"Then how do we achieve balance?" Qing Wan asked.

Yun Xi waved her hand lightly, and a jade talisman flew in front of Qing Wan.

"This talisman contains some of my insights into balance. You can learn from it. It can help you avoid many detours."

The disciples of Yunmeng Sect were all very excited, as even they rarely received such guidance.

Qing Wan smiled and put away the jade talisman. She stood up and saluted with her hands clasped together. "Thank you for your guidance, Senior."

Yun Xi said, "Whether you can comprehend and learn it depends on you."

"Uh-huh!"

Qing Wan nodded heavily. If she couldn't understand it, she could let Lu Zheng learn it first.

Lu Zheng looked at Yun Xi and asked, "Senior, you are good at using fire. I would like to ask how to use the power of fire to its fullest potential."

Yun Xi was in a good mood for once, and asked, "Can you cast fire spells? Show me a move?"

Lu Zheng stood up after hearing this and said, "Then I'm sorry."

Lu Zheng waved his hand, and a thumb-sized white bead flew towards Yun Xi.

Huh? Yun Xi looked at Bai Zhu, a strange look flashing in her eyes.

The white bead flew close to Yun Xi and suddenly exploded, releasing a scorching light.

However, Yun Xi reacted extremely quickly, and with a gentle move of her jade hand, she suppressed the explosion instantly.

A small white bead was caught in his hand.

Feeling the extremely yang aura of the bead, Yun Xi thought that he had met another young man who had cultivated the sun's vision.

And she clearly felt that the power of fire in this bead was quite pure.

Even Murong Dan's golden sun vision cannot compare to it.

Yun Xi slowly said, "You have good talent, but you still lack some practice."

Yun Xi pinched her jade hand, and the white bead in her hand changed in the blink of an eye, turning into a long ray of light, a hundred feet long.

Yun Xi flicked his finger, and a hundred-foot-long white beam of light slashed towards the square.

The originally hard square was cut into a deep mark by the scorching light in the blink of an eye.

No one even noticed a slight fluctuation of power.

But they could see that this strike could break mountains and cut rivers, and contained extremely terrifying power.

"Do you understand?" Yun Xifeng said calmly.

Lu Zheng pondered for a moment and nodded slightly, "I understand. Thank you for your guidance, senior."

Lu Zheng bowed and thanked him, then sat down.

Yun Xi said, "This young man is teachable."

Yun Xi paused, looked at Bai Lu, and said, "Bai Lu, have someone fill this in later. This extra gap really affects the appearance."

"Yes." Bai Lu responded quickly.

Bai Lu thought that this gap would be difficult to fill and it would take some effort.

Yun Xi continued teaching for a while, and before he knew it, it was noon.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Yun Xi flew away gracefully without delaying at all.

Many people were still not satisfied with what they had said, but Yun Xi stopped preaching here.

If the disciples of Yunmeng Sect want to listen to Yun Xi’s class again, they can wait until later.

But foreign guests like Liu Changan could not stay for long. If they wanted to get Yun Xi's guidance again, they could only go to her alone to ask for advice.

Of course, it is still unknown whether Yun Xi will continue to give guidance.

Some people left the square in twos and threes.

Lu Zheng and Qing Wan were still sitting there motionless. The cushion was comfortable to sit on and had a mysterious quality. It was a good opportunity to recall the lesson just now.

Time passed slowly, and most of the people in the field had left.

"call……"

Qingwan put away her notebook and let out a long sigh.

There was so much to learn at once that her little head couldn't handle it all!

Lu Zheng next to him also slowly stood up and stretched his muscles.

Qing Wan whispered, "That senior just now seemed so powerful..."

Although she had seen more powerful scholars and grand masters before.

But Qing Wan felt that the methods displayed by Yun Xi were also extraordinary.

"Every profession has its own expertise." Lu Zheng said with a smile.

Qing Wan said, "Yes, do the elders here know a lot? Then we can learn a lot of knowledge in the future..."

"By the way, why are you two here?"

A familiar voice came faintly from the side. Who else could it be but An Jing?

An Jing came over to ask questions after seeing that everyone else from Yuyue Peak had left.

Lu Zheng turned around and smiled, saying, "Hello, Miss An! We heard that the Yunmeng Sect is very mysterious, so we came here to take a look."

An Jing couldn't help but roll his eyes. These words made it seem like anyone could come to the Yunmeng Sect.

An Jing said: "Don't tell me you got here by accident."

"That's not the case. It was the people from Yunmeng Sect who found us and invited us to be their guests," Lu Zheng explained.

"What?" An Jing looked puzzled. "How did they find you? Could it be that they took a fancy to you and wanted you to join the Yunmeng Sect?"
