The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 1190 A Man of High Righteousness

Lian Pingchao smiled coldly and said, "My dear nephew Yun Fang, they want you to take out the Holy Page. Otherwise, no matter what, it is impossible to rescue them from the siege of more than 50 war statues, and even we may fall into it. Consuming the Holy Page to save four unrelated Grand Secretaries should be the most unprofitable business in the world."

Fang Yun nodded and said, "Mr. Lian's words inspired me, and it makes sense."

Lian Pingchao smiled and said, "My dear nephew Yun, you are too kind."

The other five Grand Secretaries looked at Fang Yun in silence. They could not blame Fang Yun because Fang Yun did not know the four Grand Secretaries and there was no need to take out the precious Holy Page.

Fang Yun continued, "Mr. Lian's analogy of business is indeed worth learning from. What can a few holy pages do? They are nothing but dead objects, but four university scholars can kill countless monsters. If a few holy pages can exchange for the lives of four university scholars, it will be a very profitable thing for the human race."

"You..." Lian Pingchao stared at Fang Yun as if he was choking on his food and couldn't speak.

"Yun Fang is not only talented, but also righteous. He is really a role model for us!" Ye Fangge stood up in awe.

"Brother Zhaochen invited Yun Fang to join. I was very opposed to it before, and even secretly sent a message to Brother Zhaochen, hoping to drive him away. But now I understand that it is a great blessing to have Yun Fang in our team! I apologize for what happened before." Tan Hemu bowed to Fang Yun respectfully and admitted his mistake.

"Really a good son of my human race!" Qiu Meng praised, but his eyes were a little complicated.

Fang Yun smiled and said, "Don't praise me, everyone. Find a way to save the four university scholars."

"Okay!"

Lian Pingchao was very reluctant, but he was a member of the team after all, so he took action with everyone.

The seven people talked with the four trapped people and quickly came up with a plan and implemented it immediately.

The seven people first rushed to the war statues, and the war statues immediately split into thirty and rushed over. The seven people blocked them while approaching the four university scholars.

After approaching, Tan Hemu took out the holy page given to him by Fang Yun and used the enemy-blocking poem to turn the virtual into the real, which happened to fall on the four university scholars. The war statues surrounding the four university scholars instantly fell into heavy hallucinations and kept climbing the mountain.

The seven people rushed into the enemy-blocking poem mountain and rushed towards the Five Dragons Hall with the four university scholars. The stone statues behind them crashed into the enemy-blocking poem mountain and began to slowly climb the mountain, all trapped.

The eleven war poem dragon horses stepped on the undulating ruins and left the war statues behind the blood mist.

"Huh..." One of them let out a long breath, clasped his fists towards Fang Yun and the other seven people, and said, "Sun Zhanfan thanks you all. I will take out half of all the treasures I got here and divide them equally among the seven of you."

"I will take out half too." The other three immediately agreed.

The four people were still in shock, their faces just turned a little red, and their voices were weak.

Yun Zhaochen shook his head and said, "You don't have to thank us. We didn't do much. The one who really did the work was Yun Fang. He took out a holy page. If you really want to thank him with half of the treasures, give it to him."

Tan Hemu said, "Yes, Yun Fang is responsible for 99% of the rescue of the four of you. To be honest, without him, we wouldn't even be able to save you."

Sun Zhanfan looked younger than everyone else, with black hair, unlike other university scholars who either had gray or white hair. He looked at Fang Yun in surprise, then looked at the others with an inquiring look, asking, "Who is this Yun Fang, my literary friend, and why have I never heard of him?"

Yun Zhaochen coughed lightly and said, "This is my distant cousin, who has just been promoted to Hanlin, and he has a different adventure. Well, let's not talk about him, let's talk about you, why are you surrounded by them?"

The four people's faces immediately showed grief and anger, and they all wanted to say something, but they couldn't say it for a while.

After a long while, Sun Zhanfan sighed and said, "We were chased by the Blood Claw Tribe and mistakenly entered this place and were surrounded by war statues. When the bear demon kings of the Blood Claw Tribe saw us being besieged, they laughed wildly for a while and then left."

"Who died in the battle..." Yun Zhaochen asked tentatively.

"Ma Qianjun, Mei Hai." Sun Zhanfan said painfully.

"Too miserable, they were smashed into pulp by war statues, and then... no bones left, no bones left!" Su Meng's eyes turned red as he spoke.

"Forget it, let's not talk about the two of them. Let's find a way to treat their descendants well after we go back." Yun Zhaochen said.

"Of course, I will adopt a son or grandson from each of their families and raise them to adulthood, so as not to tarnish their reputation." Sun Zhanfan said.

"Alas..."

Everyone sighed deeply, and didn't know what to say at this moment.

It was really a pity that a great scholar, the lord of a city, died in battle just a few hours after entering the ruins of Dragon City.

Liu Yuan looked strange and asked, "You have been arguing for a long time just now. I am afraid that I have embarrassed you."

Sun Zhanfan on the side hurriedly winked at him and told him not to do so.

Fang Yun's expression remained unchanged, but the expressions of the other six university scholars changed slightly.

Lian Pingchao explained, "Just now..."

Ye Fangge suddenly interrupted Lian Pingchao and said, "We all want to save the four of you, but the university scholar Lian doesn't want to save you."

"You..." Lian Pingchao was so angry that his face turned red. He didn't expect Ye Fangge to say it out. Once this matter was spread, it would be a huge blow to his reputation. Once he died, even his descendants might suffer because of it. After all, the connections of the four university scholars must be stronger than his own. Even the friends of the two dead university scholars would dislike him.

The faces of the four rescued Sun Zhanfan and others really turned gloomy, and they looked at Lian Pingchao with extremely unhappy eyes.

Lian Pingchao snorted coldly and said, "There is nothing to say about this. Sun Zhanfan, and the three of you, I ask you, if you didn't have Yun Fang, even if there were seven university scholars, would you dare to rush into the fifty war statues?"

The four rescued university scholars were stunned and couldn't refute.

Yun Zhaochen smiled and said, "So this can better reflect Yun Fang's high righteousness. You four can choose not to thank others, but you must thank Yun Fang. Okay, don't mention it again after the matter is over."

The four nodded and looked at Fang Yun gratefully, all wanting to remember this person firmly in their hearts.

Lian Pingchao's face became even uglier. He didn't expect that not only would he be hated by the four people, but he also contrasted Fang Yun's benevolence. Now the four people are more grateful to Fang Yun.

Yun Zhaochen asked, "Do you four want to continue to go deeper into the ruins of Dragon City, or do you want to leave?"

Sun Zhanfan smiled bitterly and said, "Leave? We do want to. We have no other choice but to follow you deeper."

"We are willing to have you four join us. After all, one more person means more strength. But... I am a villain, and we find it hard to trust you." Yun Zhaochen finished speaking and sighed.

The eleven dragon horses continued to move forward, and the horses' hooves made a clattering sound on the ruins, but everyone was silent.
