Chapter 279 – The first case in the West, the case of the plate sheep

Yue Liuxi invited Su Yun to give a lecture, originally to ask him to demonstrate his strength, so that the scholars of Da Qin would no longer discriminate against and look down upon the people and scholars of Yuanshuo, and also to let Su Yun showcase the culture of Yuanshuo.

In this class, Su Yun felt that his "teaching" was quite good. Not only did he display the ancient saint's unique skills of Yuanshuo, as well as the new Daoist techniques and abilities he absorbed from the combination of old and new studies, but he also showcased other things such as the latest unified martial arts and abilities of Yuanshuo, the seventy-two heavenly realms, and the art of creation.

He even used a divine technique!

Moreover, he even got injured and shed a drop of blood!

"The monthly salary of one hundred Qinghong coins from the Sword Pavilion is well worth it!"

Su Yun sincerely praised in his heart, "I'll find time to tell him and let him process the money."

He beckoned to Zuo Songyan, and Zuo Songyan quickly walked over, whispering, "I just used my mana to try to save someone, but I might have been discovered by two people..."

Su Yun took him to Yue Liuxi, with a smile on his face and a voice like a mosquito, "You are a member of my Tongtian Pavilion. As the master of the Tongtian Pavilion, it's worth making a fuss about having a bodyguard to protect me, isn't it?"

Zuo Songyan suddenly realized and then felt regretful in his heart, "This kid really treats me as a troublemaker and took the initiative to cover for me."

"I got injured, and I even tore my clothes."

Su Yun said to Yue Liuxi, "Moon Pavilion Master, does the Sword Pavilion treat work injuries?"

He lowered his head and searched for the sword wound on his chest for a moment, but there was only a bloodstain, and he couldn't find the wound. It should have already healed.

Yue Liuxi did not respond to his question and instead looked at Zuo Songyan, asking with courtesy, "May I ask who this brother is?"

"He was sent by the Tongtian Pavilion to protect me." Su Yun casually replied.

Jiang Zushi originally planned to question Zuo Songyan, but when he heard this, he didn't say anything. Su Yun, as the master of the Tongtian Pavilion in the overseas region, was still young and came to the overseas region to serve as a junior historian. The Tongtian Pavilion definitely wouldn't be so at ease.

Therefore, it was only natural for there to be experts around Su Yun.

"The monthly salary cannot be increased."

Yue Liuxi's face was kind, and he decisively rejected Su Yun's second proposal, saying, "You only teach one class a month and have one fight. If we still give you a raise, what would other teachers think? Moreover, as a teacher, it is unreasonable to fight students in every class. As a teacher, you should teach something."

Su Yun laughed and thought to himself, "This Moon Pavilion Master is stingy. He only wants the ox to plow the field and doesn't want it to eat grass."

Jiang Zushi said lightly, "It seems that Su Pavilion Master has mostly learned new studies and not much about Yuanshuo."

"Why would the Martial Saint say that?"

Su Yun was surprised and said, "My foundation is based on the culture of Yuanshuo. I have studied the ancient saint's unique skills for six years. Of course, the new studies are also very exquisite. I have also learned some new studies passed down from Da Qin in the Wenchang Academy and the Tian Dao Academy."

Jiang Zushi's expression eased slightly.



Su Yun continued, "Someone once told me that old studies are for humans, and new studies are for gods. I have been in Da Qin for a short time and cannot see much in a short period of time. But I think that Daoist techniques and abilities are more advanced when it comes to gods. After all, gods are stronger than humans, so the Daoist techniques and abilities they teach are naturally more advanced."

Jiang Zushi's expression further eased, and he nodded.

"But when it comes to the livelihood of the people, I dare not agree."

Su Yun said, "If the livelihood of the state and the people constantly rely on gods, it will inevitably lead to chaos caused by the gods. I have been in the Western Region for a short time, but I have seen some chaos..."

Jiang Zushi remained silent and left with a wave of his sleeve.

Su Yun was stunned, and Yue Liuxi said, "That's just his temperament. Actually, Jiang Zushi is not a bad person. He is just stubborn about some things. The idea of asking gods and asking humans that the Pavilion Master mentioned earlier is very interesting. Has Yuanshuo achieved asking humans?"

Su Yun thought of Qiu Shuijing, Di Ping, Xue Qingfu, and Wen Guanshan, his face darkened, shook his head, and said, "I haven't achieved it."

Yue Liuxi was stunned and smiled, "Asking gods and asking humans both seem to have problems. But the Pavilion Master's statement is very interesting. I need to think about it carefully."

He also bid farewell and left.

Su Yun watched the two of them walk away, turned around, and saw Cang Jiuhua supporting Yu Shuangyun standing behind him. Su Yun quickly said, "Miss Yu, do you think I am stronger or weaker than the masters of your overseas pavilion?"

Yu Shuangyun endured the pain and said displeasedly, "Did you leave me behind just to ask this question?"

Su Yun scratched his head and said, "What else?"

Yu Shuangyun snorted and said lightly, "I won't betray the Pavilion Master." n0veLUsB.c0M

Su Yun laughed heartily and said, "If I defeat your Pavilion Master, I will become the Pavilion Master. At that time, you should remember what you said today and not betray me."

Yu Shuangyun was angry, broke free from Cang Jiuhua's hand, and limped away. Su Yun's voice came from behind her, "Brother Cang, I observed her swordsmanship. It doesn't seem to be the swordsmanship of the Sword Pavilion. Since the Sword Pavilion has taken the name of the Sword Pavilion, their swordsmanship must be extraordinary."

Yu Shuangyun stopped, only to hear Cang Jiuhua say, "Miss Yu studied under the Palace Master of the Imperial Palace, Yu Daoyuan, who is in the original realm, and the Imperial Teacher. Although the Imperial Teacher has not been conferred as a saint, her swordsmanship is extraordinary. However, when it comes to swordsmanship, my Sword Pavilion is the orthodox..."

"Nonsense!"Yu Su Yun limped back, sneering, "Both the Sword Pavilion and the Emperor's Palace originated from the Pan Yang Rebellion. The Sword Pavilion relied on the support of the Tong Tian Pavilion. The first generation leader of the Sword Pavilion was a member of the Tong Tian Pavilion and established his position in the Pan Yang Rebellion with his swordsmanship. The Emperor's Palace and the Sword Pavilion were established almost at the same time, and there is no consensus on who is the orthodox one! In recent years, the swordsmanship of the Emperor's Palace has become stronger."

Cang Jiu Hua smiled, "Senior Sister Yu, the Sword Pavilion has two Holy Saints, while the Emperor's Palace only has one Original Dao National Teacher."

Yu Su Yun snorted, "Which one of the two Holy Saints in the Sword Pavilion is the Sword Saint? The National Teacher of Yu is the one who cultivated the Original Dao with swordsmanship. Swordsmanship is authentic, so it should belong to the Emperor's Palace! Yun is the capital, attracting scholars from all over the world. This allows the Sword Pavilion to select talents from more scholars, gradually gaining more fame than the Emperor's Palace. It doesn't mean that the Sword Pavilion is orthodox!"

Su Yun was puzzled and asked, "Miss Yu, why didn't the National Teacher of Yu become a Sword Saint?"

"My teacher, Yu Dao Yuan, cultivated to the realm of Original Dao and touched the edge of the Great Dao. It's just that he was too young and was not sanctified. And now, the power to sanctify has changed in Da Qin."

Yu Su Yun asked, "So?"

"So, the power to sanctify has been taken away by the gods."

Cang Jiu Hua said, "Only the gods in the Western region have the qualification to sanctify. The saints sanctified by the gods are recognized by all countries. If the gods don't sanctify, then Yu Dao Yuan is just a National Teacher in the realm of Original Dao. The current Emperor of Da Qin is a disciple of the Martial Saint and the Sword Pavilion Saint. He can be called the Holy Emperor because he was sanctified by the gods."

Su Yun turned around and looked at the tall demon god bound and suppressed in the Martial Saint Pavilion, whispering, "I heard that the gods, god kings, and god emperors in your Heavenly Court are actually different incarnations of one god."

Cang Jiu Hua came to his side and looked up at the bound demon god, saying, "That's right. The gods and even the god kings in the Heavenly Court are incarnations of the god emperor. Although the Emperor's Palace is not as famous as the Sword Pavilion, because it respects the Heavenly Court and was the first to spread the cultivation methods of the Heavenly Court, it gained the favor of the god emperor. Every year, scholars can enter the true Heavenly Court to meet the god emperor, which also attracts many scholars."

The demon god suddenly opened its eyes and looked at the two people standing under it, revealing a fierce light. It suddenly chuckled, "God Emperor? Heh heh, really giving oneself face..."

The demon god struggled hard, trying to break free from the restraints and suppression!

The Martial Saint Pavilion shook violently, and suddenly the chains, like giant pythons, pierced through the body of the demon god. They twitched and tightened inside its body!

The demon god exerted all its strength, trying to break the chains and shaking the entire floating island. It shouted loudly, "Others may respect you as the God Emperor and worship you everywhere, but I absolutely don't believe it!"

"Crack!"

The sound of bones being crushed by the chains came from inside the demon god's body. The chains tightened even more, and on the thick chains, runes that Su Yun couldn't understand flashed with light, constantly flowing along the chains and into the demon god's body!

"You are just a demon like us!"

The demon god screamed in pain, and suddenly its arm broke, with thick bones protruding from the upper arm!

Demon blood flowed out from the wound and poured down. Su Yun, Cang Jiu Hua, and Zuo Songyan stood there, only to see the demon blood pouring down like a waterfall, turning into hideous demon heads and fleeing in all directions!

Su Yun looked up and even saw chains in the severed arm, like a venomous dragon python coiling around its bones, wriggling!

"Crack!" "Crack!"

The demon god's legs broke, and it knelt down, tilting its head back and letting out a mournful cry.

Su Yun's heart pounded, and he hurriedly retreated from the Martial Saint Pavilion with Cang Jiu Hua, Zuo Songyan, and Xing Jiangmu guarding outside. They saw the demon god begging for mercy from inside the pavilion. It shouted, "I won't dare anymore!"

The four people outside the pavilion looked at each other.

Su Yun suddenly shivered and asked, "Brother Cang, Da Qin, Da Xia, and other countries all rose during the Pan Yang Rebellion two hundred years ago, right?"

Cang Jiu Hua nodded.

Su Yun asked, "Then why was there a Pan Yang Rebellion? Why did the Pan Yang eat people everywhere? And why did the Heavenly Court rise? Haven't you been curious about it?"

Cang Jiu Hua blinked and smiled, "What does Lord Su want to say?"

Su Yun smiled, "I always feel that there are some strange connections in all of this, and I have a bad feeling. Maybe it's because I used to investigate cases as an envoy to the frontier, so I'm too sensitive."

Cang Jiu Hua hesitated for a moment, pursed his lips, didn't say anything, and just bowed to Su Yun.Su Yun nodded slightly, and Cang Jiu Hua turned and left.

Xing Jiang Mu stopped a carriage drawn by a Pan Sheep, and the three of them climbed onto the pavilion on the back of the Pan Sheep and took their seats.

Zuo Songyan returned Ying Ying to Su Yun, saying, "Scholar Su, now that you have become a gentleman of the Sword Pavilion, you must cherish this opportunity and copy all the classics of the Sword Pavilion to Yuan Shuo!"

Su Yun shook his head and said, "Even with the classics, without someone to teach them, I'm afraid no one in Yuan Shuo will be able to understand them. Therefore, Yuan Shuo needs to send more scholars to study here..."

He paused, leaned towards Zuo Songyan, and curiously asked, "Old Pot, where do you think we should start investigating this Pan Sheep case?"

Xing Jiang Mu was puzzled, "Pan Sheep case? What Pan Sheep case? And what's this about an Old Pot?"

Zuo Songyan also leaned over, their heads close together, and Zuo Songyan whispered, "Do you think there's something fishy going on here?"

Su Yun whispered back, "The Pan Sheep case reminds me of the Burial Dragon Tomb case. The Burial Dragon Tomb case had wide implications and its aftermath is still felt today, so I suspect there may be some issues with the Pan Sheep case."

Zuo Songyan reached to stroke his chin beard, only to find it missing, then remembered he had returned to his youth. He pondered, "After the Burial Dragon Tomb case, the seven major families in the north rose to prominence in the disaster relief case, and in the western Pan Sheep case, the western countries rose because of it..."

Xing Jiang Mu said in confusion, "Gentlemen, there is no Pan Sheep case, only the Pan Sheep Rebellion..."

He stopped there, not continuing, because he saw the unique smile of an old fox on the faces of Su Yun and the unfamiliar young man.
