Chapter 143: Confucianism discusses the way of the empire, the way of the king or the way of the kin
The people of Shaolin are divided into two factions, and the people of the other faction are actually very optimistic about Lin Heng.
Especially the abbot Xuanci of Shaolin.
"But from what I've seen from my interactions with Xiaoyao Sword Immortal, he is not someone who kills innocent people indiscriminately, nor is he someone who would implicate others."
"No matter what, the martial arts of this Xiaoyao Sword Immortal have now reached a level that almost no one can match. Even if Shaolin wants to do something to stop him, I'm afraid it doesn't have the strength to do so."
Abbot Xuanci might as well tell the truth directly.
The others couldn't help but fall silent.
Although they are talking big here and keep talking about what will happen to Lin Heng in the future?
But no matter what Lin Heng wanted to do, they were probably powerless.
"Are we just going to watch it happen? Even if we can't beat him, can't we suppress him with the prestige of the entire Shaolin?"
At this time, Master Kongzhi on the side couldn't help but sigh, and then placed his palms in front of him.
"Amitabha, monks should uphold wisdom, why bother to guess at others."
"What's more, this free and easy swordsman is a rare talent in the martial arts world. His mind is broader than most people."
"This junior brother just said that he wanted to use Shaolin's pressure to suppress him, but is Dao Zong worse than Shaolin? Did Dao Zong's pressure suppress him?"
After Master Kongzhi said this, everyone else fell silent.
Abbot Xuanci couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
"Junior Brother Kongzhi is right. Those who use force to suppress others will inevitably suffer backlash."
"Besides, this matter is beyond the power of Shaolin. Even if we want to intervene, we are powerless."
However, Master Huijue couldn't help but stand up.
"Then why not sign a martial arts agreement with Xiaoyao Jianxian? We must provide a guarantee for the entire martial arts world. After all, he is too strong."
The Master of Control was about to say something, but in the end it just came out as a sound.
"That's good too. If Xiaoyao Sword Immortal is willing to sign it, it will be an additional guarantee for the martial arts world."
Lin Heng had just returned to Xueyue City and narrated what had happened in the past few days.
In fact, from his point of view, he just went to Longhu Mountain once and taught Longhu Mountain a lesson.
Afterwards, he went to Dao Zong and settled accounts with him.
He also fought a battle with Wang Xianzhi, who was protecting Dao Zong.
"But these are just some of the things, I don't know what to say, it's not worth making such a fuss about it."
Sikong Changfeng opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he swallowed it back.
Only those who know Lin Heng know that what he said was actually from the heart and he was not at all boastful.
While they were discussing together, a disciple from Xueyue City ran in hurriedly.
"Xiaoyao Sword Immortal, three city lords, there are people from the Confucian sect outside who want to see you..."
Baili Dongjun was also shocked.
These Confucian people are generally low-key in the world.
Even people like the Confucian Swordsman Xie Xuan rarely appear in public.
Basically, they are something you can only encounter by chance.
How could someone like this actually come to us today and even come to Xueyue City?
He couldn't help but glance at Lin Heng, only to see that Lin Heng's expression remained the same. He thought that Lin Heng should not have provoked them this time when he went to Li Yang.
"Among the Confucianists, is there a Cao Changqing?"
The disciples of Xueyue City shook their heads.
"There are no Cao Changqing and Confucian Sword Immortal Xie Xuan. There are a few unfamiliar faces, almost never seen before."
"They are all dressed like scholars and seem easy to talk to. They just ask to see the Free and Easy Sword Immortal by name."
Lin Heng knew that this was directed at him again.
I just got back to Xueyue City and haven’t even sat down yet.
It is said that these people in the underworld get news quickly.
"Bai Xiaotang is also a busybody. He spread the news everywhere before I even came back. Now it's good that even the Confucian sect has someone to speak out about it."
Lin Heng was a little upset.
"If he wants to see me, do I have to see him? What can a Confucianist do?"
"Even if Cao Changqing and Xie Xuan come to see me together, I won't see them easily."
Li Hanyi frowned and thought for a moment.
He turned around and persuaded Lin Heng.
"Why don't we meet them? Although the Confucian sect and its people have good tempers, they are not unreasonable."
"It's just that these scholars are used to talking about great principles. If you don't go, you will be at a disadvantage in this sense. Although there is no need to care about other people's opinions, your every move is being watched by the world at this moment. I don't like to hear others' bad comments about you."
After hearing what Li Hanyi said, Lin Heng also nodded.
"Since you said so, I will go and meet them too."
"Invite them in!"
Not long after, several people who looked like scholars stepped into the threshold and bowed to Lin Heng, Baili Dongjun and the others.
"I am honored to meet Xiaoyao Sword Immortal and the three city lords of Xueyue City. We, the disciples of the Confucian Sect, should not come to bother you, but I really have some doubts in my heart, and I want Xiaoyao Sword Immortal to answer them for us."
"Of course, Xiaoyao Sword Immortal is now very powerful and has a high status. If he doesn't want to answer our questions, then there is nothing we can do."
"Although we respect Xiaoyao Sword Immortal very much in our hearts, we still hope that Xiaoyao Sword Immortal can give us a chance..."
As soon as the Confucianists came in, they lowered their attitude, so Lin Heng didn't say much.
As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face.
Lin Heng believes that he is a person who responds to soft words but not hard ones.
"Everyone has come from afar, so if you have anything to say, just speak directly. I, Lin Heng, am not the type of person to beat around the bush, and I'm sure you are not either."
"If you are here to plead for Dao Zong, or if you think I have gone too far, then please don't say a word."
The Confucian disciples couldn't help but smile.
"Xiaoyao Sword Immortal, you are joking. Although the Taoist sect and the Confucian sect have some intersections, they have had little contact over the years."
"Besides, cause and effect are intertwined, but even if they were wrong first, we can understand Xiaoyao Sword Immortal's song."
"It's just that we came here this time for the entire martial arts world, and also for the world."
The leading Confucian disciple suddenly raised his head and looked straight at Lin Heng.
"Xiaoyao Sword Immortal, we are here to discuss the Dao with you. You will definitely become a key figure who will influence the entire martial arts world in the future, so we want to ask you about your Dao."
"Will your choice in the future be that of a tyrant or a king?"
Lin Heng was slightly stunned, but he didn't quite understand what they meant.
"I will naturally stick to the sword path in my heart, the kingly way, the domineering way, and the art of maneuvering. Those are what the emperor has to consider, not my way, Lin Heng."
The Confucian disciples shook their heads.
"The world belongs to everyone in the world, and Xiaoyao Sword Immortal is one of them. What if we have to choose one of these two paths?"
