In the future, Earth becomes a relic of the mythical era.

Chapter 123 My Great Confucian Father!

City Government Office.

Dai Yang, with his hands behind his back and his head held high, paced back and forth in front of Wang Yinglan's desk.

Dai Yang arrived here early in the morning.

For this moment.

Wang Yinglan didn't want to pay attention to him, but he was determined to stay there.

He looked up from the documents on the table with a sigh, took off his glasses, put them aside, and said irritably, "Alright, stop showing your ugly face in front of me!"

"I must have been blind. You're amazing, aren't you?"

Fat Orange finally heard those words and said arrogantly, "Official Wang, no offense, but you can't judge a book by its cover."

"You need to change your ways. Don't always look down on people just because they're young!"

They finally got their revenge.

He remembered every time he was questioned and ridiculed at previous city-wide meetings.

Unfortunately, the city-wide meeting has already taken place, so we can't see what other people's faces are like now.

However, it's alright.

Today he plans to do nothing but visit each person's door one by one!
After leaving Wang Yinglan's place, the first place to go is the mining group!

"Visit" Ye Ding, the most arrogant one!
Wang Yinglan seemed to know what he was thinking and shook her head: "Old Dai, did you already know?"

"what do you know?"

"Of course, it refers to Mr. Xie's identity."

Dai Yang hurriedly said, "Official Wang, you can't wrong me like this. I just found out myself."

"You really don't know? At this point, there's no need to hide it anymore, is there?"

Wang Yinglan asked doubtfully.

She believed that Dai Yang was deliberately hiding this person's existence and didn't want others to know about him.

If it were her, she would have done the same.

The fact that someone could be invited to the Starry Sky, and even alarm the Council of Elders, speaks volumes about their profound background.

For these people, it is also a potential political resource.

"really do not know!"

Dai Yang quickly distanced himself: "Let alone before, even now, I'm completely clueless and have no idea what's going on."

Wang Yinglan stared at him suspiciously for a while, and based on her understanding of him, she reluctantly believed him to some extent.

She immediately shook her head and pointed at him: "How could you be so confused?"

"Who are the people who can go to the starry sky?"

Dai Yang replied matter-of-factly, "The starry sky, the highest hall of humanity in the Federation, the place where human heroes shine like stars."

Wang Yinglan laughed and said, "What do you think Mr. Xie, a mere primary school teacher, has that makes him worthy of being listed among the stars?"

Dai Yang rolled his small eyes but didn't say anything.

Wang Yinglan didn't ask him any more questions. She pressed a button on a controller next to her, and a projection appeared in the office.

What it shows is Xie Dongshan's life and work trajectory over the years.

You can see anything here that's in a public place.

Of course, it couldn't be all of it. Someone would organize all the information, leaving out only the key and representative pieces before sending them to her.

At the beginning of the projection, there were also images of Xie Dongshan's other family members.

Since his divorce from Chu Yu-chen, his life has consisted only of reading and teaching.

Xie Lingxin only appeared occasionally.

However, Xie Lingxin still taught all the classes, and there was almost no communication between father and son.

Several times during this time, we encountered scenes of legendary pollution and ghost attacks.

Most recently, a little over a month ago, I encountered it two or three times in just a few days.

But without exception, each incident ended without serious harm.

Most importantly, some of the images were strange visions that appeared when he was reading.

Ordinary people might not notice anything, and even Xie Dongshan himself didn't realize it.

But they knew it very well.

Wang Yinglan paused the projection: "Tell me, more than a month ago, your Environmental Protection Bureau had already sent people to protect him. Tell me, you didn't have any suspicions at all?"

Dai Yang's eyes began to dart away.

Wang Yinglan smiled: "There are some scholars in this realm who can truly internalize books and even perceive their divine essence."

“He was full of knowledge, and every word he spoke shone like the stars and moon in the sky, making even ghosts and gods keep their distance and dare not blaspheme or offend him.”

"I thought that great Confucian scholars only existed in the ancient mythological era. I never expected that such a person would appear now, and even under my rule."

She sighed, "This is our good fortune, but..."

He shook his head and didn't continue.

Dai Yang stopped laughing.

This woman is indeed difficult to deal with; the secret he tried to keep hidden until the very last moment was still seen through by her.

Actually, more than a month ago, when Xie Lingxin was attacked by the face-changing ghost, the police sent people to protect her and her son.

At that time, he made a discovery, but he kept it a secret and pretended not to know it.

"You old Dai, you haven't changed a bit of your cunning nature."

Wang Yinglan glared at him: "How dare you keep such a big thing a secret?"

Dai Yang stubbornly insisted, "I didn't hide it!"

Wang Yinglan ignored him and said, "Since the Great Resurgence, the Federation has produced many immortals, but only two saints."

"The path they followed was most similar to that of the ancient Confucian scholars. If it weren't for the immortal spirits of the two sages, guarding that 'heavenly dome' and protecting the Federation, we wouldn't be as relaxed as we are now,"

"But the situation 'there' is becoming increasingly dire,"

"The emergence of a new saint is of great significance. No wonder the Council of Elders personally issued a decree to invite him."

"This Mr. Xie has the bearing of a great Confucian scholar and is indeed the most likely to become a new sage."

Her expression was somewhat complicated, showing joy and amazement, but also a hint of regret and disappointment.

Dai Yang naturally knew why.

saint……

It sounds impressive, and it truly is impressive. The appearance of every sage is a great blessing for humankind.

But for him personally... it might not be a good thing...

However, what makes sages sages is their purity of heart and breadth of mind, which are far beyond the reach and comprehension of ordinary people.

Fortune and misfortune are merely concepts perceived by ordinary people...

Wang Yinglan put away her sigh and said, "Now I believe what you said before. With such a great scholar as his father, it is only natural that the child could decipher the ancient scriptures."

"No wonder you're so protective of him."

Dai Yang became smug again.

However, he still complained, "Official Wang, don't talk nonsense. My feelings for that child were entirely out of love and care for a junior! You make it sound like I'm some kind of opportunist!"

Wang Yinglan smiled and didn't refute him.

……

Seven Star Academy.

Wen Yifu, who was engrossed in studying an ancient scripture, suddenly received a phone call.

His expression shifted to one of surprise and delight: "What? It passed?"

He then asked in confusion, "What's going on? Didn't they say there were still procedures to follow and discussions to be held? Why is it so fast?"

He was taken aback by what the other person said, and then looked incredulous.

After a while, he hung up the phone and remained lost in thought for a long time.

After a long silence, he let out a long sigh: "A great Confucian scholar..."

No wonder those old fogies in the association changed their minds so quickly and approved Xie Lingxin's registration as a master without examination.

The title "great Confucian scholar" is enough to shatter all doubts.

I wanted to call Xie Lingxin to tell her the good news, but then I thought the timing wasn't right, so I sent her a text message first.

Fortunately, I had added Bestone beforehand.

……

Cui family.

"Grandpa, what did you say?!"

Cui Hong looked shocked.

The other members of the Cui family had the same expression.

Cui Pu nodded in confirmation: "No doubt about it, this is a message from an old friend of mine on the capital planet."

"He originally asked me who 'Xie Dongshan' was, and I pressed him repeatedly before he revealed some information,"

"In a few days, the planet's governor will personally come to greet us; this is something that cannot be faked."

"This……"

The entire Cui family was stunned into silence.

Cui Hong was no exception.

He then recalled the results of the divination he had received earlier.

A dragon soars in the sky, supreme and noble!
Perhaps it was meant to be here?
……

The Liu family, the Huo family...

Throughout Leizhou, well-informed people have already heard rumors.

The discussion between the father and son, Xie Dongshan and even Xie Lingxin, continued throughout the night.

The main subject of discussion is, of course, Xie Dongshan.

As the son, Xie Lingxin will inevitably be mentioned.

His story of deciphering ancient scriptures began to circulate in a small circle.

This time, however, no one questioned or ridiculed him; instead, everyone exclaimed, "Like father, like son!"
For a young man from the slums to decipher ancient scriptures is nothing short of delusional and absurd.

But if it were the son of a great Confucian scholar, wouldn't it be only natural for him to decipher ancient scriptures?

This is the difference in status.

……

Seven Star Academy.

Student meditation room.

Li Miaoyin looked at her phone with surprise in her eyes, then turned around and said, "Brother, it's being said among all the major clans in Leizhou that someone has received an invitation to a banquet from the Starry Sky, and it's an official invitation directly issued by the Elder Council."

Li Jingzhe awoke from his meditation and exclaimed in surprise, "The starry sky? There's actually such a person in Leizhou?"

Li Miaoyin shook her head: "I don't know. Those who know the news keep it a secret, but something this big can't possibly be kept completely secret."

The Li family's roots are not in Leizhou, or even in Far East Star. Naturally, they are not as sensitive to this kind of news as the local powerful families.

“Great Confucian scholar…this is truly a blessing for humanity…”

Even a proud man like Li Jingzhe was filled with reverence at this moment.

Li Miaoyin's beautiful eyes flickered, and she suddenly said, "Brother, about that matter... should we find another person?"

Li Jingzhe snapped out of his daze: "Who are you looking for?"

Li Miaoyin smiled and said, "Xie Lingxin!"

"he?"

Li Jingzhe recalled his encounter at the mountain god temple. This person did have some skill, but... his strength was still somewhat lacking.

"reason?"

Li Miaoyin said, "I also received a message that the reason the coordinates of Tonggu Bay were found so quickly is because the Environmental Protection Bureau deciphered a fragment of a scripture."

Li Jingzhe said, "What do you mean... You don't mean to say that Xie Lingxin deciphered it?"

Li Miaoyin smiled but remained silent.

Li Jingzhe was surprised again: "He actually has this ability?"

Li Miaoyin held up her phone: "And I just checked with the Scripture Masters Association. Look what this is."

"A first-level scripture master... Xie Lingxin?"

"He's actually a registered monk?!"

The Scripture Master Association's Scripture Master rank is equivalent to the six-level certification of the Scripture Hall, and also has six levels.

However, becoming a scripture master is far more difficult than obtaining certification from the Daoist Academy!
