The two climbed the stone steps for half a day before finally arriving at the gate of Taiyi Palace.
There are only one or two Taoist disciples guarding the gate.
"Yun Xuan, Yu Xuan? What are you two doing here?"
Upon seeing who it was, the Taoist disciples guarding the area were slightly taken aback.
"Senior Brother Xiao Ling!"
Yun Xuan and Yu Xuan looked at the people guarding the place with some surprise. They hadn't expected to be so lucky. It seemed that it was Xiao Ling's turn to patrol the mountain gate today.
Seeing the two of them, Xiaoling was quite happy, but she didn't show it on her face.
He frowned slightly: "Why are you two back? I remember Master said that you are not allowed to return to Taiyi Mountain without a Dao Order."
At this moment, he was also worried about the two of them.
They should know that if the Human Sect were to find fault with them, the two of them would be completely expelled from the Taoist sect.
However, Yunxuan and Yuxuan didn't take it seriously and took out a miniature peach wood sword.
"Please go and inform them, senior brother, that we have urgent business to discuss with the sect leader on the orders of Uncle-Master Bai Yuan!"
Xiao Ling took the miniature peach wood sword, examined it, and found no problems.
This was indeed made by Bai Yuan; he was the only one in the entire Taiyi Mountain who would spend time carving these small peach wood swords.
"Come with me!"
He returned the miniature peach wood sword to the two of them, and then led them into the Taiyi Palace to find Chisongzi.
At this moment, Chisongzi was meditating and cultivating when he keenly sensed that someone had come outside, so he slowly opened his eyes.
"Master, Uncle-Master Bai Yuan has sent another letter!"
Upon hearing this, Chishongzi's expression changed slightly. The last letter was a complaint, and now, not long after, another letter has arrived. Could it be that he is going to complain about someone again?
He received Bai Yuan's letter of complaint some time ago.
They cursed Luo Wang horribly and kept complaining to him, asking him to help them get revenge.
Although he knew very well that the letter had been embellished and exaggerated, he still took the six elders to Xianyang the next day, intending to seek justice from Lü Buwei.
When Lü Buwei was approached, he was completely bewildered. After learning the situation, he repeatedly stated that it must be a misunderstanding and that this was absolutely not his intention.
After all, Luo Wang wasn't under his sole control.
After some friendly negotiations, and after Lü Buwei repeatedly assured that he had not issued the task and offered substantial compensation, the Taoists finally settled the matter peacefully.
As for what would happen inside the Luo Wang organization afterward, Chi Songzi didn't care.
Without thinking too much, Chisongzi finished his practice and got up. As soon as he stepped out, he saw Xiaoling and Yunxuan and Yuxuan following behind him.
"Meet the Master!"
Yun Xuan and Yu Xuan immediately clasped their hands in a salute.
Chisongzi nodded slightly. As the sect leader, he naturally recognized the two of them and guessed what had happened when he saw them return.
"What about the letter?"
Upon hearing this, the two immediately produced a secret scroll: "Here is the letter. Our master instructed us that the matter in the letter involves a great deal and must be kept secret."
After hearing this, Chisongzi narrowed his eyes and gave Xiaoling an instruction.
"Go ahead and do your thing!"
Xiao Ling understood his meaning, said "This disciple takes his leave" and hurriedly left.
Only then did Chisongzi open the secret letter and begin to read it.
He had been somewhat nonchalant at first, but the more he looked, the more serious his expression became.
After reading the letter, Chishongzi suddenly burned it in front of the two of them.
"Junior Brother should have already given you instructions regarding the elixirs, right?"
"Yes, our senior uncle told us to follow the sect leader's instructions."
Yun Xuan and the other person immediately replied.
"Well, in that case, come with me. I want to see if this pill is really as miraculous as it seems!"
Chisongzi nodded slightly, then walked towards the alchemy room.
Yun Xuan and Yu Xuan exchanged a glance, overjoyed, and immediately followed.
The next morning, sunlight streamed in through the window and fell on the bed.
"Uncle-Master! Han Fei requests an audience!"
In his sleep, Bai Yuan actually heard Han Fei calling him.
To dream of a man other than him is definitely a nightmare!
Bai Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, and stared blankly at the shimmering sea outside the window for a moment.
It turned out that it was already dawn.
He breathed a sigh of relief: "Luckily I woke up early! But why would I dream about Han Fei?"
"Uncle-Master! Han Fei requests an audience!"
Outside the courtyard, Han Fei bowed and shouted loudly.
Bai Yuan's expression changed slightly when he heard the familiar voice.
"It's not a dream!"
Only then did he realize that it was Han Fei who had woken him up!
After quickly getting dressed, Bai Yuan yawned as he walked out. He saw Ning Yan frowning, her face showing a hint of displeasure.
"Han Fei, what are you doing here so early?"
Sensing the resentment emanating from Bai Yuan, Han Fei gave a bitter smile.
"Uncle-Master, I was ordered by our Master to come, so I had no choice but to come."
Han Fei wore a bitter expression. He had come to see Bai Yuan yesterday, only to be tricked into eating a meal. He wouldn't have wanted to come if it weren't for Xun Kuang's orders.
"Senior Brother Xun, what brings you here?"
"It's like this, Uncle-Master, didn't you come to the Confucian school to study? My teacher asked me to take you to the library early today so you can see some Confucian classics."
Bai Yuan nodded slightly after hearing this, realizing that this was what he had come for.
"Okay, come in and wait a bit while I wash up."
Without Bai Yuan giving any instructions, Ningyan went to fetch water for him as soon as she heard that he wanted to wash up.
A short while later, Bai Yuan came out after washing up.
Before they were about to leave, Bai Yuan suddenly remembered something and turned back to Ning Yan, saying, "If you feel bored here, go outside and wander around. If you see anything you want, write it down and tell me. I'll take you to buy it another day when I have time."
Han Fei, who was standing nearby, immediately became alarmed. He would definitely have to keep his distance from Bai Yuan next time he went out!
Chapter 51 Knowledge is power
On his way to the library, Bai Yuan also took the opportunity to complete his daily draw.
However, when today's entries came out, his expression turned somewhat strange.
【Knowledge is Power (Purple)】: When you carry any item containing knowledge, you will be protected by righteous energy; when using books as weapons, you will gain the skill "Gathering Books into Blades," the higher your knowledge level, the stronger the blade. (Note: Books are good things; opening them can purify your mind, and closing them can purify your enemies.)
This is a rare purple-level entry, and it also has two powerful effects.
Regarding the first effect, Bai Yuan said it was quite normal; his righteous energy protected him, ensuring he was immune to all evil.
But what's with that "gathering books into a blade" thing?
He knew about the Yin-Yang School's "Gathering Qi into a Blade" technique, but if the Yin-Yang School found out about this skill's name, would they come after him?
At this moment, Bai Yuan looked up at the tall library in front of him, wondering if the entry was too targeted.
If it were given to Confucian disciples, wouldn't they be able to train a sword saint in no time?
After thinking for a moment, Bai Yuan silently added this entry to his vocabulary list, since it was purple and would be of considerable use to him.
Following Han Fei into the library, Bai Yuan was awestruck by the vast sea of books within.
He had long heard that the Confucian library here contained tens of thousands of books, including not only Confucian classics but also many works by other philosophers from various schools of thought.
After all, during the time at the Jixia Academy, a hundred schools of thought contended, and a number of works emerged, such as "Songzi", "Tianzi", "Wozi", "Guanzi", "Yanzi Chunqiu", "Sima Fa", and so on.
Confucian scholars generally possessed these books, some being original firsthand copies, while others were copies made by later generations.
The sheer number of books here is unlike anything Bai Yuan has ever seen in his life.
At this time, there were other disciples in the library borrowing books. They held bamboo slips and read them quietly.
Most of the books here cannot be taken out; they can only be read here.
Han Fei said something to Bai Yuan, and then went to find the book he wanted to read.
After he left, Bai Yuan wandered around by himself.
Walking to the nearest bookshelf, Bai Yuan casually picked up a bamboo scroll and weighed it in his hand.
Then he had a special feeling in his heart, as if he really knew how to turn books into blades.
With a thought, the surrounding bamboo slips trembled, as if guided by something.
The commotion was so great that it immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding Confucian disciples, startling Bai Yuan into stopping abruptly.
He almost became the first person to be kicked out of Xiaoshengxianzhuang after just one day.
These books are treasures of Confucianism. If he were to squander them, the Confucian scholars would surely come after him.
Suppressing his desire to try it for the time being, Bai Yuan opened the bamboo slip and began to read it.
He didn't care what book he was holding; he just wanted to read it first.
In any case, Chisongzi's task for him was to read as many things as possible, preferably all of them, and then take them back to the Taoist community.
With his "quantum speed reading" ability, he reads books incredibly fast.
