Creation Color Master

After one night, Yanlin Fire Beast and Sarliang traveled at full speed and finally arrived at Xianyang City.

At the same time, Gao Wenzeye, who was in charge of guarding the city, sensed Chu Mo's breath, rushed up from the military camp, and rushed to meet Chu Mo.

High in the sky, Gao Wenze was elegant but with a hint of ruthlessness. He clasped his fists and said, "Didn't my friend go out for a trip? How come you're back so soon?"

Chu Mo smiled and said, "Isn't this a problem? I need my uncle to handle it. By the way, has my uncle returned from the meeting with the emperor in Beijing?"

Gao Wen glanced at Li Wei, who was being held in his hands, and seemed to understand something. He immediately said, "The prince just returned yesterday, and he should be in the mansion now. You can just go there."

"I still have to fulfill my duty of guarding the city, so I won't talk too much. We can drink together when we have time."

Of course Chu Mo didn't want to delay, so after saying goodbye to Gao Wenzhe, he went straight to Prince Xianyang's Palace.

Last night, except for a small number of people brought by Li Wei, all the elite troops of the Li family went out to deal with the Xie family to ensure that everything would be foolproof.

Of course, the results achieved were extremely fruitful. Most of the Xie family's property fell into their hands, and the Xie family was completely slaughtered overnight.

In the lobby, the Li family was still immersed in the joy of becoming the largest family in Yunzhou. Although the family's disciples had experienced a night of killing and running around, there was no trace of fatigue on their faces, only joy and happiness.

Just as they were celebrating this "great victory" in high spirits, they didn't know that Li Wei had fallen into Chu Mo's hands.

In the study of Prince Xianyang's Mansion, Tang Tianyu and Chu Mo sat opposite each other, and Chu Mo told him everything about what the Xie and Li families had done and his own plans.

At this time, Li Wei was still dazed, his pupils dilated, and he had obviously entered a state of dementia.

Chu Mo originally thought that he was pretending to avoid responsibility, until Yao Guangxiao examined him and found out that he was really stupid.

Tang Tianyu understood everything. Although he admired Chu Mo's plan very much, Chu Mo could keep him out of the matter, thus saving a lot of unnecessary trouble. As long as he handled it a little, his figure in the whole incident would be wiped out.

However, Tang Tianyu also gave guidance to Chu Mo on his shortcomings in this operation, such as not killing all Geng Jinbiao in Baekje City at the beginning.

He already knew the cause and effect of the matter, so Tang Tianyu asked Chu Mo to go back and rest. There was no need for Chu Mo to accompany him on this matter, as he would handle everything.

After sending Chu Mo away, Tang Tianyu looked at Li Wei who was in an idiotic state, sighed slightly, and then sent someone to summon Shi Kaida and issued some instructions on the matter.

How to deal with subsequent events is not something Chu Mo can decide. After all, as the King of Xianyang, Tang Tianyu must put the overall situation first, act according to the law, and deal with the Li family objectively.

After handing over this troublesome matter to Tang Tianyu, Chu Mo felt relieved. He returned to the prepared room in the mansion and lay down on the bed to rest.

He stayed in the mansion for three days. During this time, Chu Mo learned that Tang Feichen had been assigned a task by the emperor, so he did not return with Tang Tianyu.

As for what the specific mission was, even Tang Tianyu didn't know, and he didn't even know where Tang Feichen had gone.

Chu Mo, who heard the news, couldn't stay idle at home. After staying for three days, he said goodbye to Tang Tianyu and continued his travels.

This time, Chu Mo chose to travel south, passing through Qingli County to the Green Shade Forest, and then crossing the Green Shade Forest to reach the border of Yuzhou.

Riding on the blue-eyed white dragon, Chu Mo continued to use the soul-melting technique to refine leather puppets. All of these leather puppets looked like soldiers, and they were all the evil weapons prepared by Chu Mo for the military monks he summoned.

After a second-level soldier has condensed the military talisman, he can use various spiritual objects to condense his own evil soldiers. The soldiers summoned by Chu Mo are special. Their evil soldiers need to be represented by leather puppets refined by Chu Mo.

Especially after breaking through to the third realm of cultivation and opening up the Purple Palace, one will have an independent inner world within the body, and then the evil soldiers will also live in the Purple Palace.

So Chu Mo is now busy making leather puppets every day to prepare for the future.

Take Yang Jiye for example at this time. He originally had only about a thousand evil soldiers, but Chu Mo gave him another two thousand, so now he has a total of three thousand evil soldiers.

Evil soldiers are extremely precious, and their cultivation and condensation require a large amount of spiritual objects. Therefore, military strategists generally do not use evil soldiers in battle except in extremely critical moments.

After putting away the successfully refined leather puppet, Chu Mo looked around and asked Yao Guangxiao: "Daoyan, where are we now?"

Yao Guangxiao turned his eyes away from the book and answered directly: "My lord, we have passed Qingshi Village in Qingli County, and Bailu Academy is not far ahead."

"My lord, Qingli County is a good place. More than 50% of the academies in Yunzhou are gathered here. The Bailu Academy in front is a relatively famous one."

Chu Mo murmured, "White Deer Academy, it's a good name, could you please tell me more about it?"

Yao Guangxiao smiled and said, "I read in a book that the dean of the White Deer Academy came here during her travels. She seemed to have some enlightenment and sat here for seven days. When she woke up, a white deer brought her some fruit to satisfy her hunger and thirst."

"After he returned from his studies, he felt that this place had a connection with him, so he founded the White Deer Academy here."

"Most of the students in Bailu Academy are from poor families, so many parents want to send their children here, which leads to a lot of people coming in and out of Bailu Academy. However, Bailu Academy is very strict in accepting disciples, and character, aptitude, and understanding are all indispensable."

"Despite this, there is still a constant stream of people coming to the gate of Bailu Academy."

Upon hearing this, Chu Mo immediately became interested and decided to go to Bailu Academy to take a look at the differences between the students of Bailu Academy and those of Haoran Academy.

So he urged his horse forward and increased his speed.

When they reached a big tree, Chu Mo slowly tightened the reins and stopped.

Under the big tree, a young man in patched clothes was holding a book and reading it with relish.

But the wind was blowing everywhere, and it was a bit cold, so you could see the scholar putting his hands to his mouth from time to time to blow out hot air and rubbing his hands to keep them from being frozen by the cold wind.

Chu Mo stopped his horse and stepped forward, saying, "Sir, may I ask how far is this place from the White Deer Academy?"

The sudden voice startled the young man. When he saw Chu Mo in a white embroidered robe, he said quickly, "Greetings, sir. I'm Zhao Tianjie. This place is not far from the Bailu Academy. After passing the high hill ahead, you can see a bamboo forest. The bamboo forest was planted by the academy."

Chu Mo glanced at the title of the book Zhao Tianjie was reading, and asked curiously, "I see that you are a diligent and studious person. Why are you reading under a dead tree in the cold wind? Why don't you go to Bailu Academy?"

Zhao Tianjie sighed and said, "My lord, you don't know that although the White Deer Academy accepts students from poor families, which is good news for them, they value aptitude and understanding. I don't have enough aptitude, so they don't want me at all. I can only travel around to study."

Looking at Zhao Tianjie, who did not show any sign of discouragement, Chu Mo continued to ask, "What are your plans for the future, Mr. Zhao?"

Zhao Tianjie said: "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by you. This is the 27th academy I've been to, and no one is willing to accept me. But I won't give up. Even if I have to travel to study, I will definitely become a Confucian scholar."
