Upon hearing this,
Chen Ang felt that Old Man Yuan was just bravado. His life force was exhausted, and even though he was a powerful expert at the Wuji Dao realm, he could not unleash much of his strength. The six of them were enough to kill Old Man Yuan.
"kill!"
As soon as Chen Ang finished speaking, the other five people immediately attacked Yuan Laotou again, unleashing all their supernatural abilities to the fullest extent.
At this time,
Hei Zi and the others were naturally very worried and anxious. Hei Zi said loudly, "Old Yuan, don't worry about us, let's go. If you leave, they can't stop you!"
"Yeah, those few good-for-nothings can't stop you, let's go!" Big Dog shouted.
At this point, there was no need to worry about anything anymore. Old Man Yuan's depleted energy had already been discovered, so there was no need to hide anything now. The most important thing was to get him to leave as soon as possible. If Old Man Yuan wanted to leave, they couldn't stop him.
At this time,
Old Yuan said, "You little brats, shut up. These youngsters, even if I'm not even a tenth or a twelfth as strong as I was at my peak, it wouldn't be too difficult to take them down."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ang and his six companions gave a mocking laugh. This old guy really knows how to brag!
Then,
Chen Ang and his six companions formed an array, each occupying a specific position. They unleashed all their supernatural abilities to their fullest potential, constructing an array that transformed into a miniature world, trapping Old Man Yuan within. Then, divine weapons materialized from all directions, surrounded by laws and imbued with supreme Daoist energy—a truly terrifying sight.
Their small world, constructed with array formations, already suppressed Old Man Yuan, and now, with the added power of this small world, their attacks are even more terrifying.
It must be said that Chen Ang and his group's methods were indeed quite remarkable, putting some pressure on Old Man Yuan.
certainly,
Chen Ang and his group's methods didn't stop there. Chen Ang brought out his family's secret treasure, a jade tablet made of white jade, eighteen centimeters long and three centimeters wide, engraved with many mysterious runes. When the jade tablet was brought out, the power it released was truly terrifying. Its explosive power was comparable to that of a powerhouse at the first level of the Wuji Dao Realm.
The other five also unleashed their respective secret treasures. Although they were not as powerful as Chen Ang's, they were still quite good, and with the blessing of the small world, they were clearly enhanced.
Therefore, Old Man Yuan's condition appears to be quite dire.
In a short time,
The six members of the Blackie gang were extremely anxious, but they were suppressed and there was nothing they could do to help.
In the small world,
Chen Ang's voice rang out, "Old man, hand over the resources you possess. Considering your life force is exhausted and you're nearing death, I'll spare your life. Enjoy your remaining days to the fullest. We can swear an oath to the Great Dao, how about it!?"
Chen Ang now naturally guessed that Hei Zi and the others were able to reach their current cultivation level because of the vast resources that Old Man Yuan possessed; otherwise, they would never have been able to reach such a level.
From their exchange just now, they could tell that Old Man Yuan must have had a truly remarkable status and cultivation level at his peak. He must have possessed abundant resources. Giving these resources to Hei Zi and the others would be a huge waste; they should be given to them. Only by giving them to them can those resources be used to their fullest potential.
He's just an old man whose life force is about to run out. What difference would it make if we spared his life? He can't cause any trouble. As for whether he has some powerful background, if he really did, he wouldn't be in this situation now.
Upon hearing this,
Old Yuan chuckled, his indifferent, icy voice rang out, "You?! Ha! Even with your family's secret treasures, you truly think you're invincible?!"
He paused for a moment.
Old Yuan's voice continued slowly, "A nation relies on its military for support, and a ruler relies on his ministers for support. If the support is strong, the nation is secure; if the support is weak, the nation is in danger."
"The key to good governance lies in finding the right people; if you use the wrong people, it will be difficult to achieve good governance."
"Civil and Military"
The policies are documented in the official records. As long as the person in charge is alive, the policies will be effective; if the person dies, the policies will cease. Therefore, governance depends on the people.
"To govern the world and the state, one must start with oneself; there is no one who can govern the world and the state if one's own conduct is not upright."
"..."
"The key to governing is to promote industry, and the foundation of governance is to be honest and upright."
"A hundred-foot platform begins with a single stone, then two stones, then three stones, four stones, and so on, until it reaches tens of millions of stones."
"A nation is strong when its people uphold the law, and weak when its people do not."
"..."
As Old Yuan spoke each sentence, various forms of bells, cauldrons, swords, knives, spears, etc., condensed from different laws and the power of the Great Dao, appeared around him. These forms contained special laws and the power of the Great Dao, and Chen Ang and the others even felt the great power of an entire nation.
In an instant,
Chen Ang and the other six were shaken, especially Chen Ang, who exclaimed in shock, "You...who exactly are you?!"
Actually, when he asked that question, Chen Ang had already guessed the identity of Old Man Yuan. After all, there were very few people with such methods and supernatural powers since the ancient times, and there was only one person with such an image... Yuan Zhongshu!
Three thousand years ago, after the ancient times, this was truly a stunning name.
Yuan Zhongshu was not of noble birth; his family, while not poor, was certainly not wealthy, but they were able to afford his education.
After thirty years of diligent study, Yuan Zhongshu achieved the highest rank in the imperial examination, thus beginning his official career. However, his career was not smooth. He served in various places, constantly changing positions, and his official rank was rarely promoted. However, he was not kicked out of the officialdom. Given his temperament, it was only because he was the top scholar that he caught the emperor's eye. Most importantly, it was impossible to find any fault with him, which was also a crucial point.
Three hundred years passed in this way. One day, Yuan Zhongshu suddenly had an epiphany, then resigned from his post and returned to his hometown, where he fell into a state of enlightenment. Generally speaking, many people gain enlightenment in officialdom, but it is nothing more than Confucianism, military strategy, or Legalism. There is basically no other possibility. Yuan Zhongshu was a complete exception. He did not gain enlightenment from Confucianism, military strategy, or Legalism. He gained enlightenment purely from politics, leaping into an extremely high realm. After that, he naturally became unstoppable.
After the ancient times, there were very few people who attained enlightenment through pure politics, but their supernatural powers and strength were clearly superior to those of Confucianism, military strategists, and Legalists.
Since the beginning of time, only Yuan Shikai has been able to find enlightenment purely in politics and achieve such remarkable brilliance.
In this way, Yuan Zhongshu naturally amazed an era, and his fame has lasted for thousands of years.
After that, for reasons unknown, Yuan Zhongshu suddenly disappeared, and people had all sorts of theories.
Chen Ang and the others never imagined that Yuan Zhongshu would end up in this impoverished village.
