King Langyuan was delighted and said, "In this way, our demon and barbarian tribes can also learn Confucianism quickly, and no longer be clueless like before. Master Fang's contribution is not inferior to Confucius."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Fang Yun's face darkened.
"The student is reckless." said Lang Yuan Wang.
King Shutai sighed and said, "Why don't you accept us two monsters as your disciples?"
"If you two demons were my disciples, how many days could you survive in the demon world?" Fang Yun said.
"If I can hear the truth in the morning, I can die in the evening!" King Shutai's eyes revealed an unprecedented determination.
King Langyuan then looked at Fang Yun and repeated King Shutai's words.
Fang Yun shook his head slightly and said, "I control you two monsters for selfish reasons, just to bury the sacred creatures in the Holy Valley. I teach you the Four Books out of compassion, and I can't bear to see the monsters ignorant, and it's also a reward. My human race may lure people with benefits, but my Confucianism has never lured people with benefits. If I accept you two monsters as my disciples, I will have the idea of educating monsters, which is to use benefits for the sake of benefits, which is not good. Moreover, if you two monsters are my disciples, you have already betrayed the monster world, and you will be discovered by the Monster Saint and exterminated."
King Shutai smiled and said, "Sir, you underestimate us two demons. Although I am a demon, I have been influenced by Confucianism and consider myself a Confucian disciple. I am a Confucian disciple, but I do not consider myself a human being. How can I betray the demon world? King Langyuan and I have secretly sworn to open up Confucianism in the demon world and recruit many disciples! Although demons and humans are not two different tribes, they can be one school!"
Fang Yun's face was calm, and he looked at King Shutai and King Langyuan with eyes as clear as the sky.
The two demons looked calm.
"Do you two demons know how dangerous this is?" Fang Yun asked.
"Of course." The two demons said in unison, firmly.
Fang Yun sighed and said, "Forget it. If you two demons die in the cause of spreading the Dao, then this Saint will erect a monument for you two demons in the Saint Academy and write the inscription by hand, so that the Confucian disciples of all realms will remember your contributions."
The two demons were overjoyed and bowed, saying, "Thank you, sir."
The Rat Tai King then returned to his usual self, grinned, stroked his beard with his claws, and said, "Sir, although we, the second demon, are determined to spread Confucianism in the demon world, our skills are low, like a cat playing with a hedgehog. We don't know where to start. Please give us some advice, sir."
Fang Yun smiled calmly and said, "Learn the skills of the foreigners to defeat them."
King Shutai and King Langyuan were stunned at first, then they punched Xingliu on the back and laughed.
"Mr. Great Talent!"
"As expected of the Human Race's Void Saint!"
The two demons were delighted.
The two demons discussed for many days before, but they still couldn't find a reason to get the demon saints to agree. If the demon saints didn't agree to preach, they would be discovered one day no matter how they acted in secret. Unexpectedly, Fang Yun solved their biggest problem with just one sentence.
"If the demon saints agree, where should we start first?" asked King Langyuan.
King Shutai nodded slightly. In some ways, this was as important as how to get the saints to agree to preach.
"What's the difficulty? In the teachings of Confucianism, etiquette comes first." Fang Yun said.
"Please teach me, sir." The two demons knew something vaguely, but they were not sure.
Fang Yun said: "I know a thing or two about the demon world. Although you demons hate our human race, you also admire our human laws, clothing, expenses and many other aspects. Is what I said correct?"
"Yes." The two demons agreed at the same time.
"Although you demon barbarians respect the saints, your etiquette is simple and your rituals are crude. The first step you two demons need to take is to combine demon barbarian customs with old rituals to create a set of complicated and more solemn sacrificial rituals. Treat the saints as if they were heaven, so that the saints can feel the difference of Confucian rituals and enjoy the submission and worship of their people. Once the saints get used to this ritual, they will not be too resistant to your teaching of Confucianism."
"One word from you, sir, is worth more than ten thousand books." King Rat Tai was delighted.
King Langyuan asked: "Then how can we make the demons and barbarians under the saints believe what I say and join my Confucianism? Should we lure them with benefits, show them strength, or cheat them a little?"
Fang Yun smiled and said, "The reason why you demons don't believe in Confucianism is that you know too little, your ears are not sharp, and your eyes are not clear. In your demon world's propaganda, my human race is weak, poor, ignorant and backward, eating grass every day, and is inferior to you demons in every way. As long as you truthfully describe my human race and teach the Confucian classics truthfully, you will naturally be attracted to my Confucianism."
"My disciple is dull, so please give me some specific guidance, sir." King Shutai said, and King Langyuan also looked at Fang Yun eagerly.
Fang Yun said: "First, all people are equal, and the world is united. Of course, our human race still has hierarchy, and there is still a long way to go before the world is united, but this is the concept of our Confucianism. In our human race, scholars can criticize great scholars, and if they have evidence, they can even criticize the saints. Do you monsters have this?"
"No."
"As long as we study, we humans can be canonized as saints. Have any of you demon barbarians been canonized as saints in recent years?"
"No."
"So, you must emphasize this point and let every demon race curse the demon barbarian saints, and let all demon barbarians firmly believe that only by doing this can the demon barbarians have a better tomorrow. If they can't do it, it means that the demon barbarians are just slaves. To be honest, do you think the human saints are better or the demon barbarian saints are better?"
"Of course it's the saints of the human race!" the two demons said immediately.
"That's it. Second, we humans firmly believe in Confucianism. The principles of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness that we Confucians believe in are eternal and universal. Most of you believe in the legendary God of All Monsters. Where is it? Do you really think it exists? To put it bluntly, anyone in the monster world who says that the God of All Monsters can show up will surely be laughed at."
King Langyuan and King Shutai looked ashamed and nodded in unison.
"Your beliefs are false, but we humans believe in real ancestors and the real Confucian ideals. Aren't they higher than your beliefs? Therefore, you must make other monsters realize that Confucianism is more noble than the monsters!"
"Sir is right." King Langyuan and King Shutai felt even more ashamed.
"Even you two demons understand this. Anyone who doesn't understand is truly extremely ignorant. Third, our Confucian leaders are all incorruptible, and they often do things that are simple and love the people. On the other hand, have you demons ever loved the people like your own children? Therefore, you must let the demons at the lower levels know this, and at the same time let them know how hateful the demons at the middle and upper levels are."
King Langyuan and King Shutai nodded in unison.
"Fourthly, humans, like monsters, need food, clothing, shelter and transportation. All you need to do is keep promoting the human race's superior craftsmanship and how prosperous the human race is under the leadership of Confucianism. Over time, the monsters will naturally find that they are not living well and will naturally believe in Confucianism more. This is not tempting them with benefits, this is just telling the truth."
"Yes!" The two demons agreed.
"Fifth, you see the Confucian heroes of the human race, who risked their lives to protect the weak. What about the heroes of your demons? It is true that some heroes are very brave when killing humans, but they are also cruel to demons. They always have unknown shortcomings, right? They always have dark hearts, right? Even if everything is perfect, why do they die? Because the saints or other higher-level demons force them to die! Think about it carefully, are there any good demon heroes who were forced to death?"
"Yes, and more than one!"
"So, you have to deny those heroes with flaws. When the demons find those heroes bad, they will naturally believe in the good heroes of Confucianism, such as you two."
King Shutai and King Langyuan tried hard to suppress their joy.
The power of the holy way of enlightenment is slowly increasing, and for this purpose Fang Yun does not hesitate to consume the starlight of Wenqu and the power of Kuxiu.
"Sixth, there are the Star Demon Barbarians. They did not fail, but turned around. The reason they were driven out of the demon world is that they are all good people. They are good at fighting outside, but not good at fighting inside. Think about it carefully. When the demon barbarians were fighting against the outside world, were the Star Demon Barbarians stupidly killing aliens, while the Blood Demon Barbarians were secretly growing and becoming stronger?"
"It is true. But... the Star Demon Barbarians are actually a bit stupid, and they are weak, so many of them were killed by alien races, otherwise they would not have been driven away." Rat Tai King hesitated.
Fang Yun said earnestly: "The Star Demons are a little stupid, but you also said that they lost a lot of people, and a lot of deaths can be counted as achievements. This is not incompetence, but they are fearless! They are not afraid of death! Besides, we are not saying that the Star Demons are stupid or not, we just don't say it. The reason why we say that the Star Demons are good is just to promote Confucianism."
"Yes, yes, yes." The two demon kings nodded continuously.
"Seventh, let the barbarians know that Confucian ancestors are good, Confucian saints are good, Confucian officials are good, and Confucian heroes are good. Then, the best thing is to let them know that Confucian children are good. What do your barbarian children do every day? Fighting and robbing is simply a disgrace to society. Our Confucian children are well-behaved, study hard, and are polite."
"But we also have some barbaric children who are very obedient and concentrate on their training." said King Langyuan.
"Then think carefully, are those barbarian children who listen to adults a little rigid in their minds? Do they lack the pioneering spirit? You see, we Confucians have been exploring ancient lands over the years. Some of our children walk in the snow without clothes in winter to exercise their will. Do you barbarians dare to jump into the magma?"
"You have a point!" said the Rat Tai King.
"But... the human race doesn't seem to be as perfect as you said." King Langyuan said cautiously.
"What does it matter? We should humbly learn from others' strengths and point out our own shortcomings. If we always focus on others' shortcomings, what can we learn? Some monsters always focus on the shortcomings of humans and do not learn the Confucian strengths of humans, so they are getting worse and worse. To learn from others, we must start by completely denying ourselves! You should have heard about the development of our human race. Tell me the truth, has our race made more progress in recent years or have you monsters made more progress?"
"Of course it's the human race." The two big demon kings said without any hesitation.
"So, everything I said was correct."
The two big demon kings nodded vigorously.
Afterwards, Fang Yun cited various examples, and the two big demon kings were convinced.
After Fang Yun finished speaking, Rat Tai Wang's eyes were full of admiration, and he asked, "Sir, how do you know so much?"
Fang Yun smiled, thinking that these were nothing. He had seen too much in the ancient Chinese country. The once arrogant empire in the north was weakened to the extreme by the enemy country using this method, and the people were in chaos. The great empire at that time could no longer satisfy the appetite of those officials, so those officials pretended not to know the means of the enemy country, and even used this power to deceive the people under the banner of beauty and privately divide the country, thus disintegrating.
Fang Yong looked at the two big demon kings with a kind look.
