Confucianism under Heaven

Chapter 542 Get out

Chapter 542 Going Out

Hearing Ye Ru's words, Kong Ling relaxed. With Ye Ru's guidance, Shi Tian might become a great Confucian scholar in the future, and if he has enough talent, he might even become a half-saint.

Moreover, Shi Tian is also a native of Jin, so naturally they should take extra care of him.

"What do we do next?"

After a moment of contemplation, Gao Feng said that the Holy Road was about to end, and they had not found any treasures inside.

It seems we'll have to return empty-handed this time.

"We still have some time. Let's go look for it and then get out of this mess as soon as possible. Qianyu, are you planning to come with us or...?"

Ye Ru thought for a moment, walked to Bei Ming's side, took off his storage bracelet, and then poured his talent into it. In just a moment, a pile of literary treasures appeared in front of everyone like a small mountain.

"I want to go out with you. I don't want to stay here anymore. It's so boring here. All I do every day is play with these monsters. I'm tired of it."

Qianyu yawned and continued.

"No wonder we couldn't find the treasure. It turns out this guy took all of these things. What a pleasant surprise!"

Before Ye Ru could finish speaking, everyone looked at the messy things, and then Xiang Ming smacked his lips and said.

"In that case, we don't need to look elsewhere. Let's divide these things up here."

Ye Ru said with a smile.

After everyone had finished distributing the items, Gao Feng and his two companions left, leaving only Ye Ru and his group.

"I'm leaving now too. When you go out, I'll go with you. I want to find those Dragon Army brothers who are scattered outside."

Long Hai lowered his head and said to Ye Ru.

"Alright, then you two come with me, I'll show you around outside."

Ye Ru nodded and said.

After a night's rest, the journey to St. John's Way gradually came to an end, on the afternoon of the second day.

"We should go."

Looking at the ever-piling dark clouds in the sky, Ye Ru spoke slowly.

The next moment, a halo suddenly appeared in the sky, and then the halo emitted an extremely strong suction force, directly absorbing all the people on the Holy Path.

Qianyu and Longhai also looked solemn. Finally, they stomped their feet and rose into the air, disappearing with the others.

The aperture kept shrinking until it disappeared completely, and silence returned to the area...

……

"The Holy Path is over. I wonder what they gained inside."

The crowd looked at the stone tablet and began to discuss it amongst themselves.

"Who do you think will gain the most from whichever location?"

Xie Ming said with a smile.

"It should be Ye Ru. This young man is better than all of us in terms of both talent and wisdom. If I didn't have his information, I would have thought he was about the same age as us."

Elder Kong stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"That's not necessarily true. Besides Ye Ru, there's another person who entered the Holy Road this time."

“Bei Ming is from the Qiankun clan. In terms of talent alone, I'm afraid there is no one in the entire Jin Kingdom who can rival him.”

At this moment, another scholar from the Miscellaneous School spoke in a deep voice, and judging from his appearance, he seemed to have a very low opinion of Ye Ru.

"cut."

Xie Ming secretly scoffed. This Bei Ming had a close relationship with their family, and the family had heard some news about Ye Ru in the Yanhuang Kingdom. Naturally, they didn't have a good impression of Ye Ru.

"Let's wait and see, they're out."

Looking at the huge halo, Elder Kong smiled and said.

The aperture continued to expand, and Shi Tianze, hiding in the shadows, looked at the former with a gloomy gaze, his hands clenching tightly.

Ye Ru was determined to kill him.

The other party not only killed members of the Shi family, but also made him, the head of the family, lose face in front of everyone. How could he possibly forgive them?

The aperture widened, and then some people flashed out from it, finally landing on the stone platform.

"Look, people are coming out. The first one to come out is actually from the Meng Sheng family."

Upon seeing those people, the great Confucian scholar from the Meng family nodded. Although they were slightly injured, they were not in any life-threatening danger, which relieved him.

After all, these people were the backbone of their families, and their deaths would be a huge blow to them.

As the Meng Sheng family members emerged, many other members of the various Sheng families also stepped out, eventually landing on the stone platform. Their faces showed more joy, clearly indicating that they had found quite a few things on this sacred path.

boom!

"Why hasn't Bei Ming come out yet?"

Shi Tianze looked at the halo and saw that many people had already come out, which made him feel uneasy.

"boom!"

At that moment, a figure suddenly flew out from the halo of light and crashed heavily to the ground. As the dust gradually settled, everyone's faces were filled with shock because of this person!

"No way, Bei Ming is dead..."

Upon seeing this scene, everyone present gasped in shock.

Bei Ming was the top scholar in their Jin state and a member of the Qiankun clan. The reason he was so arrogant in Jin state was partly due to his connection with the Qiankun clan.

But now, Bei Ming was truly dead right before his eyes.

Not only Xie Ming and the others, but even Shi Tianze was surprised that Bei Ming was dead!

"How can this be!"

Looking at the corpse lying on the ground, Shi Tianze clenched his fists, his face becoming more solemn.

"With Bei Ming dead, the Qiankun Clan will probably make a move. When the higher-ups of the Qiankun Clan arrive, things won't be so simple."

Xie Ming let out a breath; this whole thing was far too bizarre.

He didn't believe that there was anyone on this sacred path who could defeat Bei Ming.

But in an instant, he thought of someone, and then he exchanged glances with Elder Kong and the others, all of them thinking of the same name:

"Ye Ru!"

"It seems that only he has this ability."

Elder Kong sighed and said.

'If he really killed Bei Ming, the Qiankun clan will not let him go.'

The scholar, a man of many schools of thought, sneered and said...

call out!

Then the light circle flickered again, followed by several beams of light shooting out. Kong Ling and the others stepped steadily onto the stone platform, while Ye Ru flapped his wings and appeared in front of everyone.

"Because Bei Xiang wanted to kill my human scholars, I have already slain him on the Holy Path!"

Ye Ru hovered in the sky, his wings fluttering slightly. His words caused a stir among the people present, and shocked gazes were cast toward Ye Ru.

Ignoring the gazes of the crowd, Ye Ru looked into the distance where two lights flickered before gradually disappearing into the distance…
