Chapter 214: Sacrifice his son to benefit others

"The Human Emperor is the guardian of Jiuzhou. Looking back at the 9,000-year history, he has protected Jiuzhou nearly a hundred times, making the extraterritorial demons never return. We all owe our lives to the Human Emperor."

"Not to mention the current Human Emperor Jiang Li, who has killed many extraterritorial demons, made outstanding military achievements, and broken through to the Mahayana stage, completing a feat that has not been seen in nine thousand years. He is comparable to the mighty and immortals in ancient legends."

"What does this mean? This means that Emperor Jiang Ren is appointed by heaven, the chosen one, the Son of Heaven."

"We cultivators should follow the will of heaven and submit to Emperor Jiang."

"Although theoretically, the Human Emperor is at the same level as the emperors of the nine dynasties, or half a level higher, in fact, the Human Emperor is above everyone else and is a natural ruler. Therefore, the Human Emperor is one level higher than the emperor. The emperor should regard himself as a subject and regard the Human Emperor as a monarch..."

Mr. Dong spoke incessantly and eloquently, praising the throne of the Human Emperor to an unattainable position.

Jiang Li felt that according to Mr. Dong's theory, he was not only the Lord of Kyushu, but also the Lord of the Immortal Realm.

"Mr. Dong usually talks to you about the Three Bonds of Order?" Jiang Li asked the student next to him.

The student shook his head: "Today is the first time I heard the concept of the Three Principles of Order."

The three principles of order were discussed in the morning, and in the afternoon the content related to cultivation was discussed. The textbook used was "General Principles of Cultivation (written by Jiang Li)".

Jiang Li felt like he was dreaming of being ranked last in the exam at the Great Zhou Imperial Academy.

However, what is different from that time is that Mr. Dong did not teach dogma. Instead, he broke down the knowledge, separated it, and explained it in detail.

The students in the audience were fascinated by the performance.

Without talking about Mr. Dong's ideological problems, he is impeccable in teaching and imparting knowledge of cultivation. He teaches with all his heart and without hiding anything. He also tells students things that only a cultivator at the fusion stage can know.

It is conceivable that these students will take fewer detours in the future and far surpass their peers.

This is the virtue of education.

This shows that Mr. Dong's character was commendable at the beginning.

"Does Mr. Dong usually tell you about these cultivation theories?" Jiang Li continued to ask the students next to him.

"Yes, this is what we usually learn."

Jiang Li was neither dissatisfied with Mr. Dong and chose to leave, nor did he think that he was a suitable person and told him to report to the Human Emperor Palace tomorrow.

When Jiang Li left the private school, he happened to meet Mr. Dong's son who came to deliver food to Mr. Dong.

He is seventeen or eighteen years old, has dual spiritual roots, but his cultivation is mediocre, only at the fifth level of Qi training.

Mr. Dong's son is a polite man. He is courteous to everyone he meets, including Jiang Li.

Jiang Li heard that Mr. Dong attached great importance to family education, was strict with himself, and had very high requirements for his family. Now it seems that he was right.

"Are you Mr. Dong's son?"

"Yes." Mr. Dong's son didn't know why Jiang Li stopped him.

"You have decent talent, why are you only at the fifth level of Qi training?"

Mr. Dong's son does not have blocked meridians, no mysterious existence absorbing his cultivation, no accumulation of experience to consolidate his foundation, he is simply only at the fifth level of Qi training.

The dual spiritual roots were just a decoration and had no effect on Mr. Dong's son.

"Didn't Mr. Dong teach you how to practice?"

"Father said that Emperor Jiang Ren hoped for a prosperous Jiuzhou where everyone could practice and become a cultivator. If I practice and become a Jindan or Yuanying cultivator, it would consume a huge amount of resources. These consumed resources can be used to cultivate many cultivators."

In Jiuzhou, those who have practiced Qi at the third level are mortals, and those who have practiced Qi at the fourth level are cultivators.

Jiang Li is indeed committed to promoting cultivation methods, abandoning sectarianism, communicating with each other, and striving to enable more mortals to become cultivators.

"As my father's son, I must respect my father and the Emperor as my ruler. I must obey my father's orders and follow the Emperor's will. I will sacrifice myself for the sake of millions of others."

"Unfortunately, I still can't control myself well and fail to live up to my father's expectations. I still can't help but absorb spiritual energy during daily activities. I have cultivated to a level two higher than ordinary people and reached the fifth level of Qi training."

"I'm ashamed." Mr. Dong's son lowered his head in shame. "I've occupied these two layers of spiritual energy. Doesn't that mean there are two less cultivators who should have reached the fourth level of Qi training?"

"It's a very novel idea." Jiang Li left here and contacted Dong Zhongren, the leader of Confucianism.

Mr. Dong's identity was clearly stated in the materials that Commander Liu gave to Jiang Li.

Mr. Dong's name was Dong Wuwei. He was a descendant of Dong Zhongshu, the founder of Confucianism, and the elder brother of Dong Zhongren, the founder of Confucianism. He once withdrew from Confucianism due to differences in ideology.

There has been no interaction with Confucianism for decades, which is consistent with the neutral status of the leader of the Human Emperor Palace.

"How much do you know about Dong Wuwei?"

"Dong Wuwei? Have you met him?" Dong Zhongren was slightly surprised, and then answered Jiang Li's question, "Dong Wuwei and I are brothers. He highly respects our ancestor Dong Zhongshu, especially the theory of the correspondence between heaven and man. He believes that the monarchy is granted by heaven and is equivalent to the will of heaven. It cannot be violated, and there should be a strict order in the world."

"My views conflict with his. He said I was a heretic, and I said he was trying to draw a circle. We couldn't agree on anything, so we finally decided to solve the problem with Confucianism. We each became a national teacher of a country, and used our own ideas to assist the king. Let's see which country is stronger and which is weaker in ten years."

"In the end, my country was much stronger than Dong Wuwei's country, so it won naturally. But Dong Wuwei thought I cheated and refused to admit defeat. He wanted another match. He accused me of cheating without any evidence. If I agree to another match, wouldn't that mean I really cheated?"

"When he saw that I denied it outright, he was convinced that I had cheated, and then he left the sect, saying that he would prove that he was right. I waited for decades, but he still didn't prove it to me."

"I see." Jiang Li roughly understood Dong Wuwei's thoughts.

Jiang Li sat in the teahouse, ordered a pot of tea and a plate of snacks, and waited for Dong Wuwei to appear.

After the class, Mr. Dong and his son left the private school together. Jiang Li waved to him. He let his son leave and came to Jiang Li with some confusion.

"Student Ding Li, is there anything I didn't explain clearly? Is there anything you don't understand in class? It's not easy for you to come here from Da Zhou. I can't let you go back with questions."

"Dong Wuwei, stop pretending. You know who I am, and I also know who you are." Jiang Li said bluntly.

Commander Liu had just met with Dong Wuwei to ask some questions. With Dong Wuwei's intelligence, how could he not know that this was the first examination for the Human Emperor Palace to recruit commanders.

A few days later, a man named Li came to see him. His last name was not important, but he had an extraordinary manner of conversation and was from the Great Zhou Dynasty. It was easy to guess that he was Jiang Li.

The first lesson was about the Three Principles of Order, where the Emperor is the ruler and the rest are the ministers. This was not taught to the students, but to Jiang Li. Dong Wuwei hoped to impress Jiang Li with this theory and become the leader of the Emperor's Palace.

Judging from his theory, Dong Wuwei not only wants to be a leader, he also wants Jiang Li to be the king, depose all the other states and make him the emperor.

Just like his ancestor, Dong Zhongshu.
