Chapter 837 Taixuan Holy Land, Bluffing

This loud shout stunned everyone!

It’s such a big square, and 99% of the powerful people in Lu State are here. This is the first time I hear someone being so arrogant!
How dare you let the entire Confucian school accept your orders?

Many people have never seen such a scene in their lives, and they all wonder if the person who came is crazy.

Holy Lord Wenxuan?

What was this thing? They had never heard of it before. After everyone came to their senses, they whispered to each other, asking who this was, but no one knew.

Even among the Nascent Soul cultivators on the stage, few knew clearly!

Lin Shan and Luoluo looked to the side and saw that Mr. Chengqing and Lady Meihua also looked confused and bewildered. They were all puzzled.

Ancestor Ying Rong had a solemn expression on her face. She was one of the few people who knew the inside story, and she sighed.

"Alas, what is to come will always come."

There was a commotion below, and the celebration ceremony was interrupted. Kong Kai was frowning at the main seat, and the emcee standing on his right was also undecided.

Everyone was discussing the matter enthusiastically, and everyone was having fun watching how the host would handle this sudden accident.

The ancestor of the Kong family stood up.

Unexpectedly, he did not drive them away or hold them accountable on the spot, but bowed solemnly towards the sky.

"So you are a fellow Taoist from Taixuan Holy Land. What are you doing here at the Kong family today?"

He did not respond or take the order, but just exchanged polite greetings.

Just this attitude alone was enough to make the people below drop their jaws!
The Kong family is the benchmark of Confucianism in the State of Lu. How could they be publicly troubled by an outsider, and yet they acted as if nothing had happened? What is the origin of the other party?
Some people from higher social classes, who had a vague understanding of the mastermind behind the world of cultivation, were instantly moved when they heard the word "holy land"!
"Friend Kong, we are here today only to convey the Holy Lord's instructions and issue the latest instructions to the Confucian cultivation world led by your two families and two academies."

A young man on the cloud was talking eloquently. He seemed to be about the same age as Kong Kai, but the look he gave him was full of contempt. He took the initiative to talk to the ancestor of the Kong family.

"Everyone and every force must compile and present all the new landforms, spiritual veins and landforms, dragon directions, feng shui and climate information of the various regions of Lu State in this Wanhui Year within three months!"

Since the Wanhui year, the concentration of spiritual energy between heaven and earth has more than doubled, and the landform has also changed dramatically.

Many places became sacred mountains overnight, with sacred springs flowing by inadvertently, natural treasures everywhere, and 'sons of luck' appearing one after another. It can be said that you can pick up treasures even when walking!

Everyone was busy plundering everywhere. They all cried poor on the surface, but in fact they lived off the land and the water. They were all fat and made a lot of money.

Why should I listen to you and summarize all the spiritual veins and terrain for you?
These words instantly angered everyone present!

But everyone is not stupid. From the attitude of the Kong family, it can be seen that the other party is not ordinary, so no one dares to step forward. Let's see what the ancestor of the Kong family says first.

"Brother Daoist, is there a letter from Saint Wenxuan? Can you let me take a look?"

"can."

The young man flicked his two fingers, and a stream of light was caught by the stage below.

After reading the letter, the ancestor of the Kong family closed his eyes and thought for a long time, then suddenly smiled.

"I wonder why Taixuan Holy Land is so arrogant. Before the first round of spiritual tide arrives, they rush to Lu State to act bossy? It turns out they are trying to scare me!"

"Ok?"

Now it was the people from the cloud who were confused and didn't understand what he meant.

"Friend Kong Dao, the Holy Lord has ordered you to pay close attention. We are not discussing this with you, but informing you."

"You alone are not worthy!"

The Kong family patriarch sneered and suddenly became tough.

He passed the letter in his hand to the person next to him, changing his previous cautious attitude and surprising him.

"These days, anyone dares to call himself a saint and come out to cheat people."

"I really thought your Saint Master was a great and powerful being, but he couldn't even make it to the Yuan Shen Stage, and now you're showing off your power to me?"

"You couldn't wait to jump out. I'm afraid you want to cheat me to get enough benefits and lay the foundation for the subsequent spiritual tide, right?"

"Hehe, that's a nice thought!"

The person coming from the cloud on the opposite side was stunned.

They didn't seem to have expected that the ancestor of the Kong family could tell the true strength of the Holy Lord just by looking at a letter. Does this old guy really have this ability?
Or is he deceiving us too?
There was a stalemate for a while, and neither side dared to act rashly.

And this test basically confirmed that what the Kong family ancestor said was true. The other party was not a ruthless person, but was deliberately bluffing!

Lin Shan was watching the whole process from the side and was also moved.

He quietly opened his Star-piercing Eyes and looked at the ancestor of the Kong Family. Only then did he discover that the other party's aura was unfathomable. The pillar of luck above his head was even more foggy and obscured by the white halo.

The other party even noticed his prying, turned around and smiled at him, then stretched out his big hand.

In a blink of an eye, the situation changed dramatically!
The visitors from the sky staggered here and there, unable to stand steadily, and cast spells to fight back, but they were no match for the great mighty energy.

At the critical moment.

A shadow appeared behind them. It was a middle-aged scholar. He had a full forehead, was well-read and talented. He blocked the Kong family ancestor's casual attack in time.

"Brother Dao, you are of such status, how can you embarrass a junior?"

"Holy Lord!"

The people coming from the cloud were overjoyed and cheered loudly, except the young leader who had an unpleasant expression on his face, because this was the life-saving trump card given to him by the Holy Lord before he left, and he did not expect that it would be activated so easily. It was obvious that Holy Lord Wenxuan had his thoughts on it, no wonder he could think independently.

The ancestor of the Kong family did not continue to attack, but instead clapped his hands and laughed!
Because now he can see the truth clearly!

"Brother Dao is very calculating. Wan Huinian collected intelligence about our Lu State, hid behind the scenes and controlled it remotely, and sent the younger generation in the sect to cheat people. He is really good at making a profit. He deserves to be the master of the holy land."

After discovering that the so-called Saint Lord Wenxuan was nothing special, the Kong family patriarch obviously lost his initial caution and began to mock boldly in his words.

The people below were confused, while the Nascent Soul cultivators all breathed a sigh of relief.

Then everyone seemed to be thinking about something.

The shadow of Saint Lord Wenxuan had obviously just reacted. Recalling the brief fight with the ancestor of the Kong family, he immediately understood the other party's realm, which seemed to be similar to his own!
He immediately realized that he had hit a wall and apologized on behalf of his junior.

“My main body is still in seclusion in Taixuan Holy Land, and I am not aware of what my disciples and others have done. If they have offended me, please forgive them this time for my sake.” The ancestor of the Kong family felt disgusted, as the other party obviously had something planned, but he pretended to be ignorant even though he knew the truth.

After all, he was not scared. There were detailed records in the clan. Although some holy places could continue to exist, they were not necessarily in their heyday!
Relying on the legacy of the predecessors, the descendants may not be able to maintain the kingdom they conquered.

Holy Lord is just a title, which does not necessarily represent the great power of the soul. As long as he can inherit the holy land, who knows what his real strength is?

It is obvious that the Holy Lord of Taixuan Holy Land was one step behind other holy lands in the arrival of the Wanhui Year and had not yet broken through the Yuanshen period, so he planned to take the initiative and plunder the distribution of spiritual veins in various places to prepare for the spiritual tide thirty years later.

If we can benefit from the spiritual tide at that time, maybe we can rise from then on and surpass others!

But the leaders of the top forces outside are not easy to fool. Some may be intimidated, while others may not accept it.

If someone sees through you, there's no loss. After all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and most people will just keep silent.

The ancestor of the Kong family has a heart as clear as a mirror.

This guy had already colluded with others before he extorted me, and let the younger generation take the blame when something went wrong, so I couldn't bully the weak.

However, now is obviously not the time to make enemies with the Holy Land. There is no need to create a mortal feud over a mere verbal dispute.

Especially in a situation like Wan Huinian, one less enemy means one less threat.

"Humph, I see. Ignorance is not to blame. My Kong family is not going to start a war just because of a mistake! Dian Qing continues below. You little guys, now that you are here, come together."

Seeing that the other side had given him a way out, Saint Wenxuan quickly took over the conversation and asked his junior to go and apologize.

These people were all in shock just now, and were scared to think that they were going to be caught and held accountable by the ancestor of the Kong family. They didn't expect that the Holy Lord would come forward and say just a few words, and everything was calm again.

A farce that came and went quickly.

The people below could only guess based on their limited knowledge. After all, many people heard about the Holy Land as an organization for the first time. Being able to challenge the Kong family, it seemed that they were indeed quite capable.

Lin Shan, Lu Luo and Ancestor Ying Rong were even more amazed!

If it were them, they might really be stunned by this unique and wonderful show. It was the ancestor of the Kong family who was really experienced!
"Xu Li Insect King told me not to offend any holy land at will, but now it seems that not all holy lands are like Youzhu Ghost Den. This Taixuan Holy Land does not seem to be very powerful."

As a holy place, its high-level combat power is similar to that of the top forces in a country like the Kong family, which shows that there is a lot of water in it.

The strong are very strong, the weak are very weak. There is only the legacy left over from the previous Wanhui year, but this Wanhui year is a transition period.

He suddenly understood why the major holy places usually had to hide themselves from the world!

Because they are all wary of each other, afraid that the other side will find out their true colors. After all, their biggest competitor is each other, and they have to retain enough reserves to go all in for the next Wanhui Year!
If the sect declines halfway, or if any generation becomes weak and the opponents seize the opportunity to attack the sect, the sect will be destroyed.

At their stage, they have developed to the top, their inheritance is extremely powerful, and they have become a super power on the continent. They pursue things of a higher dimension and do not compete with ordinary sects and families for ordinary resources.

Only Wan Huinian began to tentatively and cautiously show his strength, for fear that if he showed up too early, his opponent would seize the opportunity and hit him head-on!
But it seems that Taixuan Holy Land's actions today are very confusing. They behave very radically and frivolously. They stumbled and made a big mistake in the Kong family, and will definitely become a laughing stock in the future!

But if you think about it carefully, there are many doubts. Maybe it's a deliberate confusion.

These Yuanying Zhenjuns were thinking a lot in their minds. They became more absent-minded about Kong Kai's Yuanying Ceremony and began to think about the way forward.

The ceremony still continues.

The people below cannot reach this level, and many of them even don’t understand what is going on. They still regard Kong Kai as the future of Confucianism and try their best to perform in the hope of gaining favor.

The fourth floor was undercurrent at this time. There was an extra table, which was filled with people from Taixuan Holy Land.

The young man in the lead looked very young, having come out to explore the world at an early stage of the Nascent Soul stage, and had even dared to challenge the Kong family ancestor just now! This made people pay attention to him!
He looked around and didn't pay any attention to Kong Kai on the stage. Instead, he kept looking at Lin Shan and Zhong Shenxiu, the two young Nascent Soul boys, which surprised him quite a bit.

The people who were traveling with them were also in disbelief and talked among themselves. They could guess that the sudden appearance of two young Nascent Soul boys from the outside world made them doubt themselves for a moment.

Wait until the tribute session is over.

The ceremony officially entered the banquet process, and all the guests took their seats. Then the Kong family sent people to serve delicious food, and everyone began to eat and chat.

During the banquet, people can walk around in areas divided into fixed classes, toast each other, get to know others, and make friends.

The scene was extremely lively for a moment. It was a rare grand event in the world of cultivation, and everyone was able to benefit from Kong Kai's presence.

On the fourth floor, Lin Shan was sitting still, but someone couldn't wait to come over and toast him.

"Master Lin, we parted at Ding Mall in the northwestern part of Shandong Province a while ago, and now we meet again, you are still as charming as ever. My two brothers sincerely admire you!"

"Yes! We both regretted not being able to meet you last time after our hasty farewell. We just happen to meet today, and we must not miss it!"

Lin Shan took a closer look.

It turned out they were two acquaintances!

A Yuanying stage wandering cultivator from the State of Lu. They were once in the northwest of Lu and were fighting with Zhong Shenxiu for the Feather Clan's Lingbao Cave Heaven. They were the crooked-necked middle-aged man and the little boy who wanted to intervene and get a piece of the pie.

When these two guys saw him beating up Zhong Shenxiu, they immediately ran away with their tails between their legs, fearing that they would not be able to escape either.

In that situation, it is indeed risky to come up and make friends. What if Lin Shan suppresses you on the spot?
This is the Kong family's territory now, and all the big and small forces in Lu State have gathered here, so they have the courage to approach Lin Shan and flatter him to make friends with him.

"Oh, it's you two. I still have some impression of you."

Lin Shan was absent-minded and answered them casually.

However, he soon discovered something was wrong, because the two of them ran towards him as if they were fleeing, and they were vaguely hostile to someone in the field.

It was his good third brother, Zhong Shenxiu!

"Have you two offended my third brother?"

The two of them shrank back and smiled bitterly. It was too late to change the situation, so they could only nod and agree.

It turned out that the incident happened after Lin Shan defeated Zhong Shenxiu.

The two of them followed behind, wanting to see if they could get some bargains, which is understandable and normal.

If anyone were to encounter a big fat sheep like Zhong Shenxiu who was seriously injured, they would also be unable to help but have evil thoughts.

But who would have thought that Zhong Shenxiu had the mirage dragon to protect him, and was awakened by the two of them while he was unconscious. Seeing that they were taking advantage of his misfortune, he was furious and immediately turned around and fought back, chasing them away in panic!
After he went back to recuperate from his injuries, he personally went out to uncover the two's relationships in Lu one by one, uprooting all of their industries and disciples!

He even threatened to grind the two of them to ashes!

These two people are just independent cultivators, and the independent cultivators at that table all keep to themselves. How could they dare to go against Bailu Academy?
In desperation, he took this opportunity to ask Lin Shan for help.
