Confucianism under Heaven

Chapter 361 Young Confucian Scholar

Chapter 361 The Young Confucian Scholar

The surroundings were deathly silent, with only Ye Ru's voice slowly ringing in everyone's ears, causing them to involuntarily gasp.

Then, they looked at Yao Xue, whose face was covered in blood and looked extremely ferocious, and for a moment they dared not say anything more.

Although Ye Ru has exhausted some of his talents, no one can say for sure how many trump cards the other party is still hiding.

If all twenty sacred pages were to erupt, the power of the sacred path would likely be exceptionally terrifying.

“Brother Ye is a man of great talent, and has also inherited the Holy Path. His talent surpasses ours. We humans have no objection to this first place.”

Guan Hai raised his head, glanced at the other person, and then slowly said.

"I"

Han Fengxian's expression changed slightly, but then he gritted his teeth and nodded. His strength was still below Yao Xue's. He originally wanted to use Yao Xue's power to kill Ye Ru to avoid a future problem, but now it seemed that he was too happy too soon.

"That's okay with me too."

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, the former nodded and said.

“Our dragon clan has no problem either. Brother Ye’s talent surpasses ours, so he should rightfully take the first seat.”

The dragon chieftain smiled slightly. Their dragon clan possessed numerous treasures, including some that belonged to their own dragon lairs. Therefore, they were not particularly interested in this treasure and were willing to do him a favor.

"Ye Ru, don't be so arrogant! We are not to be trifled with. If we go out, you will definitely be hunted down by both the demon and monster races!"

The demon leader's eyes were filled with a chilling light, and he immediately shouted.

Although they were happy to see the demon race suffer losses, they did not want the human race to gain the first place and then use this opportunity to make the human race stronger.

"If you're not convinced, you can try. Besides, if you lose, will those mediocre people behind you be a match for us?"

Ye Ru glanced at the demon leader and said indifferently.

"Brother Ye is right. Previously, because no one dared to provoke this Demon Snow, we were repeatedly humiliated. If we don't work together, I'm afraid the excellent situation you've created will be wasted. Fellow human, although we have internal conflicts, we are now facing external threats. We should be like brothers, united as one, and not let them look down on us!"

Upon hearing this, Guan Hai stepped forward, revealing his own formidable presence at that moment.

Although he did not intervene in the previous battle, the current situation is in their favor, especially since Yao Xue is seriously injured and the leaders of the demon and dragon races are intimidated.

"Yes, we humans cannot be looked down upon!"

Li Xunfeng was clearly aware of the current situation and immediately spoke loudly.

Upon hearing this, the youthful spirit within the remaining Wenren was ignited, and his talent surged forth, finally locking onto the demons.

Sensing this scene, the demon leader sneered:

"With such a small number of people, how can you possibly stand alongside us, the demon and monster races? I imagine these demons also yearn for revenge, don't they?"

Upon hearing this, the demons' gazes suddenly turned hostile.

"My dragon race and the human race have formed a temporary alliance."

At that moment, the dragon leader's casual remark drew everyone's attention in that direction, and the brows of the demon and monster races furrowed involuntarily.

They knew that the Dragon Clan was ranked second because they had no interest in this matter at all, and once they made a move, their strength would probably be even greater than Ye Ru's.

After all, dragons are a much longer-existing species than demons.

Their ancestral dragon was said to have received guidance from the most revered teacher Confucius, enabling it to fly through the sky and escape into the earth, and to be omnipotent.

Moreover, after the ancestral dragon ascended to heaven, it left behind countless dragon clan secret realms for the dragon clan's descendants to explore.

In short, the dragon race is far more powerful than the demon race.

"You guys! Humph!"

This scene caused the demon leader's expression to change. He then flicked his sleeves, realizing that if they didn't back down now, their fate would probably be no better than Yao Xue's.

"Brother Ye, seeing is believing. I am Long Shang, the third prince of the East Sea Dragon King. Your name is often mentioned by my younger sister."

Long Shang smiled and then cupped his hands in greeting to Ye Ru.

"So it's Brother Long. I wonder how Princess Yaoyao is doing?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Ru was taken aback at first, then smiled and said.

Everyone else looked surprised. Ye Ru had never dealt with the Dragon Clan before. When did he become so friendly with them that even the Third Prince of the Dragon Clan was willing to offend demons to stand on Ye Ru's side?

"My sister is very good, but she often talks about you. You must come to my East Sea Dragon Palace sometime so that our dragon clan can show you some hospitality."

Long Shang laughed, then turned his head:

"Now that the seats have been assigned, there's no need to fight over them anymore. Let's just wait quietly for the main hall to open."

"You guys seem to be having a lot of fun fighting."

At that moment, a soft voice rang out, causing everyone present to slightly focus their attention.

creak!

Then, the tightly closed gate in the distance suddenly opened, and the boundless darkness, like a wild beast, seemed ready to devour its prey.

Then, from behind the ancient bronze gate, a soft sound of footsteps slowly echoed, and finally a young sorcerer appeared.

This young Taoist priest had a handsome face and wore a blue robe, giving people a rather comfortable feeling. However, no one present was a fool; anyone who could appear here was no ordinary person.

"you are?"

Long Shang frowned slightly and asked.

With his dragon-like talent, he could sense that this young scholar was no ordinary person, and his expression became somewhat solemn.

"I am a student of the Half-Saint. This is the last treasure trove left by our master, containing countless sacred artifacts. Logically speaking, the demon race and the human race are sworn enemies, but due to the fluctuation of talent, many restrictions have been relaxed. Moreover, there are also ancestors of the demon race here. So, please come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, the young scholar smiled slightly, gestured for him to enter, and said...

"Sir, how exactly was this place destroyed?"

Ye Ru couldn't help but ask.

"With the invasion of the demon race and the betrayal of someone, Sage City became a bloodbath. No one survived, including me. Even now, I only retain some of my consciousness. Before long, I will vanish into nothingness. At that time, this city will probably really disappear into the river of history."

The young scholar glanced at the location of the demon race, his eyes narrowing slightly, as if he deeply hated them.

"I see."

Ye Ru nodded. The hatred between the demon race and the human race was truly irreconcilable.

The young scholar smiled, looked at the demon race again, and slowly said:

"If it weren't for these numerous restrictions, do you think your demon and monster races would have left here alive?"

These words sent a chill down the spines of everyone present, whether they were demons or monsters...
