Chapter 587

~4 min read 664 words

But for Fu Nian, this sentence was actually about the same as nonsense.

He naturally knew to think three times before acting.

Unable to get a result from Uncle Does Xun Zi, Fu Nian felt somewhat uncomfortable, and he could only return alone to continue thinking about this problem.

There was one thing that made him quite puzzled.

That was, after learning that Han Fei had come to the Little Sage Manor, Uncle Does Xun Zi was actually not prepared to see this proud disciple. Or was it that Han Fei working for the Qin Guo had already broken Uncle Does Xun Zi's heart?

Uncle Does Xun Zi was no longer prepared to acknowledge this disciple?

After Fu Nian and Yan Lu left.

Xun Zi prepared to continue copying books. The Qin Wang issuing an edict to Fu Nian, while seemingly unexpected, was not strange if one thought about it carefully.

It was nothing more than a matter of time.

Although the State of Qi had not yet been destroyed, once the State of Qi was destroyed and the Qin Guo unified the world, the Qin Guo would absolutely not let the Confucian school remain free outside.

The Taoist school was hidden within the territory of the Qin Guo, keeping to itself.

The Yin-Yang School had long since defected to the Qin Guo.

The Guigu school also had people working for the Qin Wang in the Qin Guo.

The Agricultural School, because of its evil intentions and desire to oppose Qin, had already been destroyed by the Qin Guo.

The Mohist School had also defected to the Qin Guo.

Most of the Hundred Schools of Thought had already made their choices.

As a prominent school of the time, in terms of influence, the Confucian school was even more powerful than these schools. How could the Qin Guo ignore the Confucian school?

He had only written a few words.

Xun Zi's movements suddenly paused, and the ink on the brush dripped, staining a large ink blot on the paper. He had perceived something, so he appeared very uneasy.

After spending a while, Xun Zi calmed down, turned his head, looked in a certain direction, and said in a deep voice, "Come out!"

A figure holding a bamboo slip appeared quietly.

He had no intention of hiding himself. Looking at Xun Zi, who was copying books, he asked, "Is Xun Zi preparing to copy all the books here?"

220 Upon hearing this question, Xun Zi was stunned, then replied, "Paper takes the strengths of both bamboo slips and cloth; it is truly too convenient. I do indeed have the idea of copying and re-compiling the books in the library!"

"But who are you, and what is your purpose in coming to our Confucian library?"

Although he looked old on the outside, at this moment, a sharp light burst forth from his eyes. If it were a person with weak strength, being shrouded by this gaze, they would only feel cold all over and be unable to move.

But Su Xuan was fine; he was not affected at all. Instead, he asked Xun Zi a question, "Before answering this question, I very much want to know how Xun Zi discovered me."

He considered his breath-concealing skills to be not necessarily the best in the world, but at least the second best. Yet, Xun Zi had discovered him, which made him somewhat curious.

Seeing that Su Xuan was unaffected under his aura, Xun Zi's eyes flashed with a strange color.

Then he asked Su Xuan in return, "In your opinion, what are books?"

Su Xuan's brows lifted, and he replied, "Carriers of civilization? A ladder for human progress?"

Upon hearing this answer, Xun Zi was stunned. It had to be said that Su Xuan's answer was somewhat clever. Then, he said, "You are very right, but in my opinion, they are also the inheritance of the sages' spirit!" **Chapter 589: Deterring the Hundred Schools of Thought with Force! **
