Chapter 363: Deterring the Hundred Schools of Thought with Martial Power!

~7 min read 1,381 words

"I have to say, your breath-concealing skills are very powerful. For such a long time, I didn't discover your existence, but you moved that scroll. Every scroll has its own essence and spirit. You can hide your own aura, but you cannot hide the aura it emits."

Xun Zi spoke slowly, saying how he discovered Su Xuan.

Upon hearing this, Su Xuan's gaze flickered: "Is this Xun Zi's way of cultivation? I have to say, Xun Zi, you are completely different from the other Heavenly Humans I have seen!"

It can be said that Xun Zi is the first Heavenly Human to discover his existence through this method.

Earlier, after learning the location of the library from Han Fei, Su Xuan, holding the mentality that sooner is better than later, used the excuse of preparing to stroll around the Little Sage Manor to secretly come to the library, preparing to find something hidden in the library.

As a result, he did not find Xun Zi in the bamboo forest hut, but he was copying books here. Looking at the paper used for copying books, it was clear that this change was brought about by paper.

Su Xuan did not care.

Xun Zi is indeed very powerful, and through his observation, he has even reached the "Heavenly Human" realm, but even as a Heavenly Human, he is still a long way from the realm Su Xuan is in. He was confident that he could hide from Xun Zi and find what he wanted in the library.

As a result, he did not expect Xun Zi to discover him in this way.

But the method used by Xun Zi reminded him of some things.

Yes, he could indeed hide his physical form, but he could not hide the aura emitted by all things in heaven and earth.

In a short moment, with the help of the deduction of the "Nine Breaths of Qi" technique, he had some ideas for modifying his breath-concealing technique.

Xun Zi did not know Su Xuan's thoughts, and upon hearing Su Xuan's words, he was also surprised: "Oh? Have you seen many Heavenly Humans?"

Su Xuan did not hide it: "Not many, only two: Eastern Sovereign Taiyi, and Chu Nan Gong!"

"Both of them are good at power, but in terms of the ability to see the small and know the big, they are not as good as Xun Zi!"

Su Xuan evaluated Eastern Sovereign Taiyi and Chu Nan Gong lightly.

Upon hearing these two names, Xun Zi's expression also tightened slightly. He said in a deep voice: "Earlier, Fu Nian told me that the leader of the Yin-Yang School followed my student Han Fei to the Confucian school this time. I wonder if this is the leader of the Yin-Yang School, Mr. Su?"

When speaking, he suddenly stood up, expressing his respect for Su Xuan.

"Su Xuan greets Xun Zi!"

Su Xuan also bowed to Xun Zi.

He bowed to Xun Zi not because of Xun Zi's strength. In terms of strength, even if Xun Zi was a Heavenly Human, even if he discovered Su Xuan, that was just that. If Su Xuan really wanted to kill Xun Zi, he could still do it easily.

Compared to strength, he respected Xun Zi as a person more.

Xun Zi said in a deep voice: "Mr. Su, no need for such formalities. But Mr. Su, as the leader of the Yin-Yang School, why act in such a sneaky way? Or is it that Mr. Su wants to know what Fu Nian chooses? So as to make a decision in advance and take action against our Confucian school?"

Xun Zi's personality is extremely straightforward; he said whatever he thought of directly.

It is also because he is old now; when he was slightly younger, he was a famous big sprayer in the world. Not only were all the Hundred Schools of Thought sprayed by him, but many factions of the Confucian school were also sprayed by him one after another.

The key is that those people couldn't spray him back, which also led to the extremely high status of the Confucian school among the Hundred Schools of Thought.

Facing Xun Zi's aggressiveness, Su Xuan was not angry, and a faint smile curled at the corner of his mouth: "Whether the Confucian school survives or perishes has never been up to me, but to itself!"

"Since Xun Zi said such things to Head Fu Nian earlier, I think you also know this truth!"

Su Xuan actually arrived slightly earlier than Fu Nian and Yan Lu, so he heard all the conversations between Fu Nian and Xun Zi.

Xun Zi was silent.

He certainly knows that the rise and fall of the Confucian school all depend on themselves.

This time, the King of Qin bypassed the King of Qi and issued an edict directly to Fu Nian, the head of the Confucian school located in the State of Qi, just to let the Confucian school express its stance.

If Fu Nian refuses, it will cause the King of Qin to be unhappy.

It may be that the Confucian school will be fine for a while, but as long as the State of Qi perishes one day, in the vast world, there will be no place for the Confucian school. At that time, the rise and fall of the Confucian school will all be in the mind of the King of Qin.

Similarly, if Fu Nian accepts the King of Qin's conferment and accepts that edict.

If this matter spreads.

The entire Confucian school will be in an extremely unfavorable situation in the State of Qi.

Even if the State of Qi and the State of Qin are on good terms, that is the past. Now, the six states of Shandong have destroyed five, and the remaining State of Qi cannot survive just by being on good terms with the State of Qin.

To put it bluntly, the current situation has forced the State of Qi and the State of Qin to the opposite side.

There will be a battle between the two countries sooner or later.

And before the war, if the Confucian school's defection is exposed, the entire Confucian school will be torn to pieces by the angry people of Qi and become the target of the entire State of Qi.

The King of Qin's edict is roasting the entire Confucian school on fire!

That's why Fu Nian is in a dilemma and tangled.

Xun Zi could also help Fu Nian make a choice, but after thinking about it, he still threw the problem to Fu Nian. After all, Fu Nian is the head of the Confucian school. In addition, to put it bluntly, he is old after all.

The Confucian school is not the Confucian school of this old man, but of the young people.

"The truth is indeed this truth, but if Fu Nian refuses, is Mr. Su preparing to use the means used against the Agricultural School to deal with the Confucian school?"

The matter of the Agricultural School has been spread widely in the world, and it has been a long time since then.

Regardless of whether that matter is unbelievable.

But the rumor is that Su Xuan alone leveled the six halls of the Agricultural School, and the masters of the six halls all died.

The leader of the Agricultural School never showed his trace from beginning to end; I am afraid he met with an accident long ago.

Su Xuan said calmly: "Where, I am a person who talks about reason. The reason why I took action against the Agricultural School at the beginning was because the Agricultural School was unwilling to listen to my reason. But I believe that the Confucian school are all people who know books and reason, so reason should be understandable to you."

Xun Zi's brows furrowed and then relaxed again.

He sighed: "I seem to understand a little why the Yin-Yang School would serve the State of Qin. Mr. Su is really suitable for the State of Qin."

"The State of Qin uses powerful military force to intimidate the world, while Mr. Su uses martial power to deter the Hundred Schools of Thought!"

Su Xuan showed a faint smile, noncommittal.
