"Trying to run?"
"Do you think you can escape?!"
Xu Yanbo turned and ran away.
Gu Xuan's lips curled up slightly, and he let out a disdainful sneer.
That cold laugh seemed to come from the deepest hell, chilling to the bone and sending shivers down one's spine!
Gu Xuan simply waved his right hand lightly.
The movements were fluid and graceful, like a fairy dancing.
As he swung his arms with a flourish, streaks of golden light flashed and intertwined in the air.
Ultimately, they converged into an enormous, dazzling golden character: "禁" (ban).
The character "禁" (ban) had just been formed.
The surging, powerful energy poured down from the sky like a celestial river overflowing its banks.
This terrifying aura swept towards Xu Yanbo, who was desperately trying to escape, with lightning speed.
In an instant, he was firmly imprisoned in place.
No matter how much Xu Yanbo struggled and twisted, he could not break free from the shackles of this mysterious force.
It's impossible to move even a single finger!
At this moment, Xu Yanbo's old face had already become twisted and ferocious due to extreme fear and despair.
His eyes widened in terror!
Before the semi-sages of Confucianism and Taoism, I, a mere Grand Scholar, am like an insignificant ant, at the mercy of others!
Seeing this, Gu Xuan was about to step into Yuelu Academy to deal with Xu Yanbo...
However, at that moment, the elders of Yuelu Academy, who had just come to their senses, stepped forward and quickly blocked Gu Xuan's path.
Immediately afterwards, many doctors, academic officials, and Confucian scholars rushed forward as well.
They stood in a dense row, completely blocking the entrance to Yuelu Academy.
Everyone wore a solemn expression, as if they were ready to die, their eyes fixed intently on Gu Xuan before them, showing no sign of backing down.
At this moment, the crowd slowly dispersed to both sides.
Zhao Su, the Grand Elder of Yuelu Academy, dressed in a blue robe, stepped out and stood on the steps in front of the gate. He first bowed to Gu Xuan and said in a deep voice, "I have long admired the reputation of Sect Leader Gu. Six days ago, you killed Wei Tuotian, the Great Protector of the Western Sect, and suppressed Jiang Ziya, the Outer Disciple of the Chan Sect. Since then, your fame has spread far and wide."
Then, he changed the subject and said in a calm and powerful tone, "However, this is our sacred land of Confucianism and Taoism. Even if you are exceptionally strong, we will not stand idly by and allow you to break into our Yuelu Academy and harm our Second Elder!"
"Even if he has a thousand faults, he should be dealt with by the old master of Yuelu Academy."
"No outsider has the right to interfere in the internal affairs of our academy. If you insist on forcing your way in, you will have to step over the bodies of us Confucian scholars first!"
That's all.
Suddenly, a surge of powerful and magnificent talent welled up around him!
And behind him, in the sky, it quickly condensed into a dazzling bright moon.
His cultivation has reached the seventh level of the Great Confucian Scholar realm, the fourth minor realm of the five realms—pacifying the world!
His strength is comparable to that of a cultivator in the four realms of destiny, specifically the Immortal Venerable realm where he has illuminated his Destiny Palace.
"Indeed, to advance, they must first step over our bodies!"
Several elders, doctors, and academic directors of Yuelu Academy also rushed to the scene and stood neatly behind Zhao Su, their expressions resolute.
And accompanied by bursts of powerful talent emanating from them—
Slowly, above the main gate of Yuelu Academy, they gathered into a vast and surging ocean!
"We were born free, who dares to look down on us?!"
Those Confucian scholars who were slightly less skilled were also fearless and shouted in unison.
In an instant, the poem burst forth with dazzling golden light, instantly condensing into golden runes in the void.
Immediately, it covered the main gate and walls of Yuelu Academy.
It was as if an indestructible golden barrier had been built, protecting the entire Yuelu Academy.
These shining characters not only embody a strong sense of righteousness.
Furthermore, the Confucian scholars exuded a hint of unruliness and fearlessness in the face of power, embodying the spirit of Confucianism and Taoism!
besides.
A surge of talent, like a raging torrent, erupted from these Confucian scholars and soared into the sky—
They quickly converged into the vast ocean above, which was entirely formed from the essence of talent, expanding its coverage by more than ten kilometers.
This moment.
The resounding voices of students reading aloud continued unabated, and a gentle breeze rose up from the air!
Looking up at the summit from the foot of Qingyun Mountain, where Yuelu Academy is located...
The vast ocean of his magnificent talent almost covered the entire summit of Qingyun Mountain, leaving people in awe and awe!
......
Seeing what was happening before my eyes.
Gu Xuan had originally stepped forward, but he slowly pulled his raised foot back.
Immediately afterwards, a smile crept onto his face.
But there was a clear hint of contempt and disdain in that smile.
Gu Xuan's lips curled slightly upward, and he sneered, "A gentleman learns to accumulate knowledge, questions to clarify it, is tolerant in his conduct, and acts with benevolence."
"But you, in the name of unity, believe that Xu Yanbo is a member of your Yuelu Academy and should be protected, thus losing your ability to distinguish right from wrong."
"You all study Confucianism and Taoism, but have you all just wasted your knowledge like dogs?!"
His words resounded like thunder in everyone's ears!
In a short time.
The entire scene fell into a deathly silence.
At this moment, Elder Zhao Su, standing at the front of the crowd, frowned deeply and shouted angrily at Gu Xuan, "You audacious madman! You ignorant cultivator, how dare you spout nonsense here!"
"We who study the ways of sages and saints, how can we tolerate your wanton slander and defamation?"
"Hmph, what right do you, a cultivator who practices the Way of Ruthlessness, have to point fingers and criticize our Confucianism and Taoism?"
Faced with the reprimand from Elder Zhao Su.
Gu Xuan threw his head back and burst into laughter, his laughter filled with sarcasm.
After the laughter subsided.
He retorted without backing down, "So what if you're cultivators? You self-important, pedantic scholars, what do you know about the myriad paths to the Great Dao, all leading to the same destination?!"
"Ridiculous, pathetic!"
In conclusion.
Gu Xuan even shook his head slightly, his face full of disdain, "Old Li is right, what a pedantic scholar talking about the Five Classics, his white hair is dead from reading the text!"
"You! You!"
These words were spoken.
Elder Zhao Su was speechless, then his blood rushed to his head.
With a soft "poof".
He coughed up a mouthful of blood! His body staggered, and he looked as if he was about to fall backward to the ground...
"Elder!"
The two elders behind him reacted quickly and rushed to help Zhao Su, who was about to fall.
And Gu Xuan's words.
The words still echoed in the air above Yuelu Academy, plunging the doctors, academicians, and scholars present into a deathly silence, each with a thoughtful expression on their face.
It was obvious that Gu Xuan's words were like a slap in the face to these people who usually talked big but were mostly bound by the dogmas of ancient books.
A self-righteous Confucian scholar was slapped awake!
