Chapter 135 – Academic exchange

On the second floor of Fushan Palace, Ying Ying flew out of Su Yun's spiritual realm with a big bell and landed carefully.

Only the girl who was as tall as a book folded her wings and flew in the carriage, which was a two-story building. She flew up and down, very excited.

She died 150 years ago, when Yuanshuo was not so developed yet. She couldn't see vehicles like Fushan Palace and Zhulong Palace, nor could she see high-rise buildings outside the window.

The cloud bridge in the sky is like a long corridor of the palace of the immortals, with eaves to shelter from the wind and rain. The vehicles run under the eaves, and pedestrians stroll on the bridge.

Ying Ying looked outside the window with great interest and said, "You can't see these things in the books of the Wen Yuan Pavilion."

Su Yun smiled and said, "Reading ten thousand books is like traveling ten thousand miles. If you are only obsessed with the world on paper and ignore the real world, reading books will lose its fun no matter how many you read."

Ying Ying flew around, looking around, everything felt fresh. Suddenly, she leaned on the back window and exclaimed, "Su Scholar, come and see! Quickly!"

Su Yun stood up and went to her side, looking back.

Behind their Fushan Palace, there were no other vehicles. Zuo Songyan, a short man in a gray-white robe, followed closely behind.

Although Fushan Palace was fast, Zuo Songyan could keep up with it, strangely, his pace was steady, and his speed was not inferior to that of Fushan Palace.

Between the buildings and the cloud bridge, figures leaped towards them one after another. Soon, a giant like a mountain jumped onto the bridge and came to Zuo Songyan's back.

A command flag flew in the sky, flapping in the wind.

The flag flew down and turned into a thin and tall Taoist in a black robe, also following Zuo Songyan.

Five scholars dressed in robes and men and women rushed over from somewhere, climbed over the railing of the cloud bridge, and came to Zuo Songyan's back.

Su Yun and Ying Ying also saw Master Tu Ming and Idle Cloud Taoist walking over, as well as Dong the physician holding a medicine box and the headmasters of various colleges in the Wen Chang Academy, dressed in long robes and polite, joining the team.

More and more people followed behind Zuo Songyan, and the scene became bigger and bigger, which made Su Yun also moved.

At this moment, Fushan Palace drove to the intersection of the cloud bridge. Two intersecting cloud bridges joined this bridge ahead.

After passing the intersection, Su Yun saw dozens of black-clad men and women joining Zuo Songyan's team from each of the two bridges. These black-clad people were of all ages and genders, filling the lanes of the bridge.

Another intersection in the sky, and dozens of men, women, and children gathered in.

Moreover, people kept coming from behind and on both sides of the team, making the team even stronger!



Some people held long weapons wrapped in cloth strips, some had swords at their waists, or sword cases on their backs, and some had spiritual realms blooming, and their magical powers danced in the air, magnificent.

Everyone followed Zuo Songyan without saying a word, and Zuo Songyan followed the carriage of Su Yun, heading straight to the Jiuyuan Academy under the control of the Wen family in the seven major families!

The whistle of the government officers sounded constantly between the buildings in Shuofang City.The martial families of the seven major clans hold the position of county guards, and all the catchers listen to the orders of the martial gods. The people behind Zuo Songyan are the bandits of various states and counties in the Shuobei region, and they are well-known figures, which cannot help but make them nervous!

When Wushentong heard the news, he rushed over quickly and stood on a building from afar, looking at the scene. He raised his hand and shouted, "Spread my orders, do not act recklessly!"

At the same time, the spiritual masters in Shuofang City ran around, delivering the news to the ears of various major families and forces in the city. The city was bustling for a while.

Ye Luo had just returned to the Ye family and immediately received the news. He couldn't help being extremely surprised, "Did he make a move? What is he going to do this time?"

He paced back and forth, analyzing Su Yun's purpose behind this move. The more he analyzed, the more he got a headache, muttering to himself, "Your wisdom cannot possibly surpass mine by so much. If I can't even understand your move, how can I have the face to challenge you? I will definitely figure out your purpose!"

When Shuofang Li's family received the news, Shuofang Hou was next to the huge black iron coffin, offering incense to the Li family's ancestors. The giant black iron coffin was erected on the highest building in Shuofang City, with a spiritual soldier, a strange knife, standing beside it.

The direction the black coffin faced was towards the outside world. n0veLusb.c0m

"What is Zuo Songyan going to do?" Shuofang Hou asked with his head tilted.

Beside him, a middle-aged man bowed and said, "I heard that Gu Huaru, the head of the Ge Wu Academy's Ge Wu Institute, was lured to the outside world and assassinated. Zuo Songyan is a legendary figure in Shuobei, and he will definitely not let it go. This time, he will probably make a move because of Gu Huaru's death."

Shuofang Hou looked up at the black clouds above the black coffin, his eyes flashing. "Both of my children are studying at the Ge Wu Academy, to the point where the ancestors' coffins are emitting black smoke, blaming me for burying my children. However, I think my choice is correct. Yuan Jing, get ready. If it gets out of hand, be prepared to use the city defense army!"

The middle-aged man, Li Yuanjing, bowed and agreed.

At the Tianfang Tower Immortal Residence, Qiu Shuijing came to the window and looked down. He saw Su Yun's carriage had already arrived at Tianfang Tower, with Zuo Songyan and a large crowd of people behind him.

"Songyan also has a childish temperament, playing with him. Should I tell him that Su Yun is not a real envoy?" Qiu Shuijing hesitated for a moment, shook his head and smiled, "This is more interesting. However, Su Yun is becoming more and more like an envoy. If Di Ping is a wise monarch, he should give him the title and power of an envoy the next time he meets him! Unfortunately..."

Meanwhile, in the Saint's Residence in Shuofang, Xue Qingfu, the Saint of Xue, also received the news and frowned, looking up at the cloud bridge in the sky. "It's the first day of school for the four major academies, and it has to be such a big commotion?"

He pondered for a moment and whispered, "But since they are allies, they must be supported. Lao Luo, prepare the carriage."

On the other side, in the Immortal Residence of the Tong family, a voice was heard, "The old immortal has arrived!"

Under the crowd of the Tong family, Tong Qingyun came to Tong Qingyun's side, waved his hand, and let everyone disperse.

Tong Qingyun looked down and saw Su Yun's carriage in front and the group of Shuobei masters led by Zuo Songyan behind. He couldn't help but sneer and said lightly, "What a big show. Qingyun..."

He glanced at him, "Why are you talking to me?"

Tong Qingyun hurriedly bowed and smiled, "Old immortal, I was wrong."Tong Qingyun appeared gentle and elegant, but despite being only in his thirties, he looked like a centenarian immortal with an otherworldly air.

To everyone's surprise, the immortal referred to Tong Qingyun as an immortal as well.

"Speak up," said Tong Qingyun.

"You joined forces with the God King, yet you failed to capture Xue Shengren. You disappointed me," Tong Qingyun said to the immortal.

Tong Qingyun waved his hand and looked towards the mountain carriage ahead of them. "I underestimated him. Even as an outsider, he managed to unite the impossible forces of the Old Pail and the Saint, and even won over the Shuofang Marquis. This young hero is truly cunning and has a deep understanding of human nature. He even managed to hold his own against me in a game of chess. And what about the Eastern Capital?"

"The Eastern Capital has been managed well these years. After the Shuofang Academy scholars entered the capital, they were appointed officials in various places. Many have also been stationed in the army, holding some military power in their hands. Furthermore, I have many trusted associates in the court. If you were to call for action, surely everyone would respond," said the immortal.

"Combined with the power from outside the Great Wall and underground, it may be enough..." Tong Qingyun said, tapping his finger on the railing.

"Please, for my contributions, grant me the 'Dragon Heart Scroll'! These past few years in the Eastern Capital, I have felt my heart function declining. Though I am not old, my heart is not as strong as it used to be. I may not have many years left. Please grant me..." the immortal begged.

"You already have the Eight Scrolls of Tendons, Meridians, Bones, Qi, Blood, Fluids, Organs, and Viscera. I have already given you a few more decades of life. But don't worry, if you make another great contribution, I will give you all fourteen scrolls of the True Dragon," Tong Qingyun said.

The immortal was grateful and tearful. "This time, Su Shangshi..."

"Wait and see," Tong Qingyun said. "I want to see what he plans to do."

His gaze fell on Su Yun's mountain carriage, his eyes deep and low. "Emperor Ping, do you think your envoy can match me? He may have made some good moves, but can he really beat me? Even you, haha..."

The teachers at the Juyuan Academy had already received the news and were on high alert, informing the official Wen Lifang. Wen Lifang immediately took out the town palace treasure, the Great Wilderness Bronze Mirror, and said, "Quickly report to the government! Ask the Shuofang Marquis to send someone! Also, tell the Lin, Zhou, Lu, Tian, Wu, and Tong families!"

She quickly gathered the academy's teachers and the high-ranking members of the Wen family and headed towards the Juyuan Academy's mountain gate.

Soon after, Su Yun's mountain carriage arrived and stopped in front of the Juyuan Academy's mountain gate.In the carriage, Su Yun paid the fare, and with a creak, the door opened. He walked out of the carriage with his head down and descended the stairs slowly.

As soon as he got off the carriage, the driver shook the reins and the mountain beast ran forward like a wild horse, fleeing from Jiu Yuan Academy.

The driver shook the reins frantically and regretted, "If I had known that the business at Wen Chang Academy was not good, like a dragon's den, I wouldn't have thought it would be so difficult..."

The pressure he had been under on this journey could be imagined.

At the gate of Jiu Yuan Academy, Su Yun looked up at the gate and saw two rows of teachers from Jiu Yuan Academy standing on both sides of the gate. Wen Li Fang and the high-level members of the Wen family stood behind them, ready for battle.

In addition to them, there were many students from Jiu Yuan Academy standing behind them watching.

Su Yun walked forward and smiled.

Wen Li Fang looked at Zuo Songyan and the others who were walking towards her with the Great Wilderness Bronze Mirror on her head. Then her gaze moved to Su Yun. The beautiful woman's face trembled and she smiled, "Su Shi Zi has such a big scene. Congratulations on being the first in the scholar's exam. This time you brought so many fierce people to Jiu Yuan, are you planning to dismantle my Jiu Yuan?"

Su Yun bowed respectfully and said, "Where did Wen Pushe say that? This disciple came here to learn from the famous Jiu Yuan Academy and exchange knowledge with the spiritualists of Jiu Yuan Academy, to confirm the level of the two academies. Wen Pushe, do you not welcome me?"

He straightened up and said, "Su Yun is not talented. I want to represent Wen Chang Academy and exchange knowledge with the various colleges of Jiu Yuan Academy, to confirm the level of the two academies. Wen Pushe, do you not welcome me?"

Wen Li Fang's face trembled a few more times and her gaze fell on Zuo Songyan. She smiled insincerely, "Just here to exchange knowledge, do you need such a big scene?"

Su Yun smiled and said, "It's the first day of school and there are a lot of people. If Wen Pushe does not welcome us into Jiu Yuan Academy, then we will learn outside the gate. If you welcome us, then we will enter the various colleges of Jiu Yuan Academy to exchange knowledge."

Wen Li Fang smiled and said, "Zuo Pushe and Su Shi Zi came from afar to exchange knowledge. Of course, my Jiu Yuan Academy welcomes you! Please..."

Zuo Songyan was also stunned. He looked around and saw that Master Tu Ming and Idle Cloud Taoist were also confused. Master Tu Ming said, "Pushe, is this to dismantle Wen Chang Academy, and now you want to dismantle Jiu Yuan Academy? How dare Wen Pushe let him go to the various colleges to challenge..."
