Xu Qing’s Divine Soul flew outside the Yang clan rebel army’s camp; under his Qi Observation, he saw a terrifying sword light in the depths of the camp, akin to the rotation of the Milky Way.

...
Inside the main tent, Teacher Kong, along with several Demon Path mbers of the Heshan Tao and the head of the Yang clan, faced a Divine Sword floating in midair.
"This is the Weiyang Divine Sword, which the Zhuge family once used to suppress a hundred thousand Water Demons of the Cao clan." Teacher Kong recited classic references, narrating the tale eloquently.
The Yang clan head had always enjoyed listening to the storytelling of Cao Liu’s romances.
The elegance of Wei and Jin, the romance of the Late Han, Jiangdong...
In short, these stories were popular and tiless.
Teacher Kong revealed secrets, "That Cao Cao did not govern through academic studies but managed the gentry, as he was in essence a transformation of a Heavenly Demon in the world, fortuitously fulfilling a celestial mandate, thus achieving success. However, we gentry, with our profound heritage, invited the Simas of Henei to rectify the disorder..."
The Kong family had harbored deep resentnt towards the Cao clan ever since their ancestors fell to Cao’s slaughter.
In his words, the Zhuge and Sima families were portrayed as great and righteous, while the many atrocities of the Cao clan were ruthlessly exposed and criticized by him.
Particularly, the Cao clan’s heavy use of the low-born, their flogging of the gentry, severely violated the rites and laws. After Cao Wei, Confucianism declined for hundreds of years, starting with the Cao clan setting a bad precedent...
Teacher Kong’s view of the hierarchy of laws also appealed to the Tusi, as the Tusi system was a veiled form of the feudal system, which had many hidden alignnts with Confucian rites and laws. Because of this, the Yang clan and others beca adherents of Teacher Kong...
"The harm of the Xu clan’s Heart Study also lies here, with that Xu Qing child speaking nonsense, claiming that this heart is bright and everyone can beco a saint. A Saint is bestowed by Heaven, how could it be achieved through human effort?"
In Teacher Kong’s view, Xu Qing’s Heart Study was filled with too much personal bias and showed signs of dissolving Confucian rites and laws, as well as breaking down hierarchical concepts, which was evidently the heresy of Buddhism...
The Kong family was not lacking people. After returning to the Great Yu Dynasty, Teacher Kong had already secretly contacted so traditional scholars persecuted by those nobles who had beco workshop owners. Once Xu Qing showed signs of losing power, these workshop owners would all be slaughtered.
Peasants not farming, but running to workshops to beco workers, was too harmful to the world.
Moreover, now in Yingtian Prefecture and Jiangning Prefecture, especially in the major workshops under Xu Qing’s command, workers were even allowed to have three als a day and occasionally eat at.
The staple food in their daily life often included white flour, and workers with good treatnt ate even better than so small landlords, where was the heavenly principle and common norms?
It could be said that he had co to this point not for personal revenge, but to rectify the disorder for the people of the world!
At this mont, the Weiyang Sword suddenly sensed sothing and beca restless.
Teacher Kong imdiately said, "There are demons spying, quickly recite the Divine Spell, and unleash the Weiyang Divine Fog!"
The Yang clan head dared not be careless, imdiately chanting the Divine Spell, which caused the sword to respond, and suddenly a dense fog surged out, covering heaven and earth.
...
...
Xu Qing was observing the Yang clan rebel camp from high above, seeing the mystery of the Weiyang Sword, but suddenly a violent wind rose around him, sands and stones flying, plunging his Divine Soul into the bewildering dense fog.
The surroundings suddenly beca completely dark, with even the perception of his Divine Soul being obstructed.
"What kind of Dao Skill is this, how formidable." Since opening his Purple Mansion, Xu Qing’s divine skills had gradually matured, yet it was his first encounter with such a terrifying fog Dao Skill.
He imdiately recalled the records he read in the Wenyuan Pavilion, and combining it with his current experience,
"Could it be the Weiyang Divine Fog?"
This Weiyang Divine Fog was a divine skill from the Eight Formation Map, extraordinarily powerful. The ancestors of the Lu family of South Zhili, who were gifted geniuses, almost failed to make it out alive after getting inadvertently caught in the Eight Formation Map.
Xu Qing’s Divine Soul fell into the Divine Fog but remained calm and collected.
Firstly, the little dragon of his Qi Fortune did not give any warning, and secondly, he had already conceived of a way to break through the situation.
"The scholarly achievents of Zhuge are heavenly, what are you vermin worth?" Xu Qing thought with disdain, then moved his Divine Soul.
Imdiately, outside the Divine Fog, the Southern Seven Constellations in the starry sky suddenly shone brilliantly.
