Zongman: Is this how it’s sewn?

Chapter 264 262. Academic Beauty, Various Schools of Thought

Xiao Xiao folded her hands in front of her belly, thinking to herself, "I was originally planning to borrow the influence of this princess, but failed again. How can this guy be so rich? Didn't he say he was a casual cultivator?"

"Yes, the other party can control the chat group, run through several worlds, and resell resources back and forth. It's enough for him to have a luxury."

While the other party was thinking, Xu Zhenqing pinched the piece of mutton-fat jade into a treasure bottle. It was made according to the method of refining the treasure bottle of the Great Dao, and it was somewhat similar to the jade bottle of Guanyin. After being burned by the fire of the Dao, all impurities were removed, leaving behind a small object like a thumb-sized pendant.

Wisps of black light, which is the chaotic energy, surge in it. Holding the treasure bottle in hand, the black light flows, making the bottle body as crystal clear as black jade.

It is simple and natural, with a simple style. The great way is simple. It is the carrier of his Tao and can suppress "all the heavens and worlds". It is comparable to an alternative Taoist soldier.

Xu Zhenqing specially found a pendant made of gold, strung the two together, and personally put it on the girl's swan neck.

Xiao Xiao's pretty face turned slightly red. When their skin touched, it was like a flash of lightning, and it disappeared in an instant. The girl lowered her head and played with the pendant without saying a word.

Xu Zhenqing sighed, "I haven't done it in a long time, so I'm a little rusty."

"Why? I think it's pretty good. If you can make more, make more. They will look nice." Xiao Xiao still had to sing a different tune. She felt that the Aquarius god was like a three or four-year-old girl who could communicate with her.

The auction was not continued. The two of them stayed until everyone had left. Then they suddenly realized what was going on and walked out side by side, bickering and singing and fighting like lovers in love.

"Princess Yueling of the Jiuli Divine Dynasty invites you two." Someone handed them an invitation with large, gold-embossed characters: "Students from Qishi Mansion, we hope you will do us the honor of visiting."

Xiao Xiao took the invitation, looked at it, and found that he didn't recognize the words on it. He handed it back to Xu Zhenqing with a little embarrassment.

Seeing the other party's embarrassment, he stretched out his hand and taught him everything he knew about the written language of this world.

"Qishifu, you really didn't lie. I thought you were bragging." Xiao Xiao pretended to be surprised, but was actually teasing.

With her memory, she would naturally remember the shape of the characters after reading them once, and after accepting them, she would naturally know their meaning.

"Princess Yueling, I don't know you. Let me tell your princess that I don't want to be an emperor. I will do whatever I want in this world." Xu Zhenqing didn't care and sent a message to the visitor. He had seen many invitations like this. They just wanted to rely on him to gain a firm foothold in Qi Shi Mansion.

"You are so arrogant. The princess has invited you with good intentions. Can't you refuse her kindness?" Xiao Xiao raised her eyebrows and said with some anger.

The man suddenly realized and said, "Sir, since your female companion doesn't mind, why don't you do me the honor of reporting to the other geniuses?"

"Who said I don't care? Is there a Golden Fairy going to that banquet with you?" Xiao Xiao frowned and looked at him coldly, which made the other party sweat profusely, for fear of angering these two peerless heroes.

"Fairy, how could the ancient king possibly go to my princess's banquet?"

"In any case, now that the invitation has been delivered, I will take my leave. I hope you will forgive me if my words were disrespectful." The man bowed his head again and left after Xu Zhenqing nodded.

The ancient tribe and the human race reluctantly united to fight the enemy. In fact, not only were there internal divisions, but they also had their own ulterior motives. In addition, there were territorial disputes between the ancient tribe and the human race, and the situation was full of contradictions.

It was probably that the ancient race came to the future and took over their original territory, which was occupied by the newly refreshed human race. Each side felt that they were right. With multiple supreme imperial soldiers, it was natural that neither side would submit to the other.

"Who is that Princess Yue Ling?" Xiao Xiao asked subconsciously.

Xu Zhenqing thought for a moment, remembering only fragments of the other person's words from his past life's reading memories: "Princess Yueling of the Jiuli Divine Dynasty is the second most beautiful woman in Zhongzhou. She is stunningly beautiful and extremely famous. Even among the younger generation, it's an exaggeration to say that she is known to everyone."

"Oh." Xiao Xiao also knew that the young man didn't know each other, so he didn't say anything more.

On the way, they met a nun who also came to invite him. Xiao Xiao touched the other's shiny head with a mischievous look, and the thin-skinned nun had to run away.

Xu Zhenqing warned, "You'd better avoid contact with Buddhists. I heard that the current heir of Miaoyu Temple in the Holy City of the Eastern Wilderness North Region has directly entered the Buddhist monastery."

"What kind of force is Miaoyu Temple?" Xiao Xiao widened his eyes, feeling that the name of this force was a little strange. After thinking about it, he knew what kind of place it was.

Xu Zhenqing didn't care and said, "Just ask anyone and you'll know. It's one of the ten most romantic places in the Holy City of the Eastern Wasteland North Region, and it's a place that's good enough to be ranked in the top three. The abbess of all generations have had some unclear relationship with the Holy Son of the Holy Land."

"Have you been there?" Xiao Xiao asked with a veiled look.

Xu Zhenqing frowned and said, "No, what's so good about that kind of place? It's nothing more than a few zither girls playing music, painted boats in Langfang, and a few couples spending time together."

"These women practice special techniques and gain yin essence, which can speed up their cultivation. It's better than nothing, right? If they have the energy and financial resources, wouldn't it be better to just look for precious medicines and divine materials?"

"The secret to dual cultivation lies in having a strong opposite sex. Let alone those little girls, even if the other side's abbot came, it would be just like that."

"So, you are still keeping yourself clean." Xiao Xiao said with a little dissatisfaction, but she didn't think the other party was lying.

Xu Zhenqing thought about something and said, "It's not about being chaste. A giant dragon might mate with a powerful alien species, but those powerful pure-blooded creatures are very careful about their own bloodlines and won't easily let it spread."

"In your eyes, can I carry your bloodline?" Xiao Xiao was surprised, thinking to herself, "This Xiao Cha is not a dandy Alexandre Dumas."

"Then let's talk about something happy. Tell me about the Hundred Schools of Thought. I remember that there were also Hundred Schools of Thought in Hong Yi's world, and you gave him a few chapters of the Book of Changes. My father also mentioned some of them when he told me stories." Xiao Xiao played with the pendant and said with pretended reserve.

Xu Zhenqing said in an inexplicable tone, "Two thousand five hundred years ago, the last group of ancient sages on the ancient star Primordial Desolate made a decision and left their homeland together, traveling along the ancient starry road. The various schools of thought on the Cangdi Star had their disciples, but the two were not subordinate to each other. Tracing back to their origins, we can reach an era when many saints emerged together."

"What relationship does the ancient sage of the ancient star have with you?" Xiao Xiao asked curiously.

Xu Zhenqing said casually, "I absorb the profound teachings of these ancient sages, and it feels like I am being taught the Way. It's like my own roots."

Xiao Xiao blinked, a plan coming to mind. He thought, "I've already figured out the forces in this world. If I reveal my identity as an outsider, I might be able to escape during the chaos. At least give it a try. If I fail, I can just feign compromise and use his child to defeat him."
