Tang Jianqiu was stunned and looked at Yun Zhaochen in surprise. He did not expect Yun Zhaochen's opposition to be so decisive. After all, Yun Zhaochen was a humble gentleman. Even when Tang Jianqiu betrayed and sold out the two of them, Yun Zhaochen did not lose face.
"Of course I won't go!" Ye Fangge's tone left no room for maneuver.
"There is some past between Mo Yao and me, and you guys know about this." Liu Shan said.
Afterwards, Tan Hemu, Qiu Meng and Lian Pingchao each expressed their stance, all stating that they would not join Mo Yao's side.
Fang Yun stood aside and did not answer. These things had nothing to do with him.
Tang Jianqiu's face turned very ugly. He suppressed his anger and looked at Yun Zhaochen and said, "Zhaochen, we have been friends for many years. Would I harm you? I have already signed a military order in front of Mo Yao. I will definitely be able to pull you over. How can you let me explain to Mr. Mo?"
"Just tell the truth. Mr. Mo is a magnanimous man with a broad mind. He will naturally not care about trivial matters." Yun Zhaochen said.
“But there are only six of you… No, there is also a junior scholar, which makes you six and a half people. If you enter the Dragon Clan Hall now, you will surely die! Even Wei Huangan said that he might not be able to enter the main hall, let alone you! It is beneficial to both sides if we work together. Why don’t you understand this simple truth?” Tang Jianqiu persuaded earnestly.
Ye Fangge sneered and said, "Since we are not going, you can leave. In addition, friend Yun Fang was promoted to Hanlin not long ago, not a junior Jinshi."
Tang Jianqiu ignored Ye Fangge and continued to look at Yun Zhaochen and said, "Brother Yun, don't be stubborn. I know you are resistant to Mo Yao and Wei Huangan, but for the sake of the Dragon Clan Hall, Mo Yao will not only not harm us, but will ask us for help. As long as he survives, we can get great benefits. If you don't believe it, ask this little Hanlin and let him swear on his literary courage. If you really have to choose, will you choose you, or the real first university scholar Mo Yao? So, I..."
Fang Yun's voice suddenly rang out: "A white dragon does not enter a muddy stream, and a fairy crane does not step on dirty soil."
Tang Jianqiu's voice stopped abruptly, feeling extremely embarrassed.
The other six Jinshi were stunned. Several of them laughed, especially Liu Shan'a, who loved to laugh. Ye Fangge had been keeping a straight face, but now his expression softened, as if he might laugh at any moment.
It is extremely rare in the ancient land of Xuemang that the Hanlin Academy does not give face to the Grand Secretary, not to mention that one is in his twenties and the other is in his fifties, which is unprecedented.
Even the current No. 1 Grand Secretary, Wei Huang'an, had always been a low-profile person before he became a Grand Secretary. It was not until he became a Grand Secretary and stood proudly in the ancient land of Xuemang that he began to take revenge, and Tang Jianqiu was one of the first targets of revenge.
Tang Jianqiu looked at Fang Yun and said with a fake smile: "Yun Fang? That's right! He is a distant relative of the Zhaochen family, right? He became an Imperial Academy at such a young age. He must be the next Wei Huangan. By then, we will all bow down to him. There is no comparison."
Several university scholars frowned. Tang Jianqiu had been like this since he was a child, and he did not change even after becoming a university scholar.
"You will never repent!" Lian Pingchao, who always has a bad temper, refuted bluntly.
Fang Yun smiled and said, "Master Tang, you are too kind. If you say something like this again, I don't know about others, but they will definitely be better than you!"
Except for Yun Zhaochen who remained calm, the other five scholars all turned their heads and looked at Fang Yun in surprise. They didn't expect such a young Hanlin to say such a thing. Not only was the counterattack very clever, but even the dignity of being neither arrogant nor humble was not the most important thing. The most important thing was the confidence in this person's tone, which naturally convinced people. There was no doubt at all.
Without waiting for Tang Jianqiu to counterattack, Ye Fangge said, "This boy is extraordinary! Zhaochen, your Yun family has produced a good boy!"
Except for Lian Pingchao, everyone nodded in agreement.
There was a hint of helplessness in Yun Zhaochen's smile. He knew very well that this genius at the virtual saint level had nothing to do with the Yun family.
A cold light flashed in Tang Jianqiu's eyes, and he was about to take action, but Yun Zhaochen took a step sideways, blocked Fang Yun behind him, and then stared at Tang Jianqiu's eyes with a faint smile, staring at him intently.
Tang Jianqiu's pupils contracted, and then he laughed and said, "Since you all reject Mr. Mo Yao's kindness, I will go back and report. Finally, if you know the whereabouts of Fang Yun, whether you provide clues or give them to Mr. Mo Yao, Mr. Mo Yao will give you extra rewards, including the Sacred Heart Blood Jade passed down from the Mo family!"
All the university scholars present widened their eyes. The dragon-patterned rice was the foundation of the Blood Mang Ancient Land, and the Sacred Heart Blood Jade was the foundation of the Mo family. The Mo family was actually willing to use the Sacred Heart Blood Jade as a reward. This was truly a huge investment.
Fang Yun glanced at Yun Zhaochen calmly, but Yun Zhaochen was even calmer than Fang Yun and didn't even look at him.
Seeing that several university scholars were thinking, Tang Jianqiu said: "If you are in trouble in the Dragon Clan Hall, I will do my best to rescue you if I see you, to preserve our friendship for many years. Goodbye!"
After Tang Jianqiu finished speaking, he stepped on Pingbu Qingyun, turned around and left. When he was halfway in the air, he suddenly turned back and looked down at Fang Yun, showing a grim smile and said: "My dear Hanlin friend, you must be careful when you enter the Dragon Clan Hall. If you die, how can you compare with me?"
After saying that, Tang Jianqiu continued to fly high.
"Then you should be careful not to fall from your high position and die."
Tang Jianqiu's figure shook, but he didn't turn around in the end.
The other university scholars looked at Fang Yun with a smile. Liu Shan said with a smile, "If he really fell from his position of high rank and died, it would be a huge joke."
"However, Mo Yao was really willing to give up, even taking out the Sacred Heart Blood Jade. Who exactly is that Fang Yun? There is no Fangsheng family in Shengyuan Continent!"
"This person... is no ordinary person." Ye Fangge said.
"We have been guessing about Fang Yun's origins for several days, and even those who are proficient in the Book of Changes cannot figure out the mystery. It is said that he is shrouded by the power of the Saint, and it seems that even the Saint Academy is protecting him. All the Grand Secretaries of the Blood Manggu Land combined cannot figure out his origins."
"Perhaps even Mo Yao and Wei Huang'an are not clear about his identity."
"By the way, Wei Huangan said he wanted to capture Fang Yun alive. I don't know why."
Yun Zhaochen said: "Fang Yun's affairs have nothing to do with us, and we don't want to get involved in the fight on Shengyuan Continent. We are only here for..."
Boom…
Everyone was stunned, and then the seven of them stepped onto Pingbu Qingyun together and looked into the depths of Axe Mountain.
Hundreds of miles of red fog cleared up, and a corner of the ruins of Dragon City appeared again.
"With such frequent appearances, the Dragon Clan Palace will be born within three days at most!" said Tan Hemu.
"We have come to the right place! Get ready immediately, enter Axe Mountain within three hours, wait for the entrance to appear, and then enter as quickly as possible! You have no objection, right? "Yun Zhaochen said.
"No!" everyone said in unison.
Fang Yun stepped on Pingbu Qingyun and slowly descended. He looked at the shadow of the ruins of Dragon City and thought of the great scholars of the six sub-saint families and the geniuses of the Blood Mang Ancient Land all entering. His heart surged.
