Bank of the Universe

Within Hundred Sage College, Sage Zhang was resting in the rocking chair. He held the blood red watch in his hand and he started to reminisce about the past.

10,000 years ago, he was just a teen called Zhang Xiao’er. His family was really poor and he helped to raise lambs and cows for others to feed himself and barely survive.

Each time he saw his friends studying, he would be filled with envy. When he waited for them to come back from school and talk about what they had learned, he would be filled with admiration and desire.

He really wanted to learn.

One of his close female friends saw this and helped teach him when she was free. She taught him how to understand words and also how to study.

Unfortunately, Xiao’er was not smart and it was extremely difficult for him to study. Things that a normal person could remember in a day would take 4-5 days for Xiao’er.

But this couldn’t stop him. Even though it was tough, he worked really hard. Even if he took four or five days, he could still learn.

This lasted for three full years. After three years, he memorized a vast amount of knowledge. He decided to stop raising cows and he wanted to enroll in a school. He wanted to see how he would do with his few years of accumulated knowledge.

“The owner is my master!” Long Mixu said calmly.

“I have gone against the contract, so you have come to take my life and soul?” Sage Zhang asked.

He was really calm and wasn’t afraid at all. He wasn’t worried; he was like still water.

“You aren’t afraid?” Long Mixu was shocked.

Sage Zhang cultivated but what he cultivated was the righteous energy of Confucianism which allowed him to live on.

This was the same as normal cultivation; when one reached a certain level, one’s lifespan would increase.

Sage Zhang lived for 10,000 years, so his righteous energy was definitely really amazing. If he tried, just one sentence would be able to suppress her.

But he didn’t plan to.

“Why should I be? I am in the wrong and I should be punished.” Sage Zhang said seriously.

“You are really open-minded.” Long Mixu laughed coldly.

“Are you mocking me?” Sage Zhang asked.

“You borrowed the sage’s intellect in order to obtain your achievements. It is not yours but the intellect of others.” Long Mixu asked.

“I also need to add to their knowledge. The knowledge and intellect compared to now is totally different. If you want to kill me, then go ahead. If you are worried that people will find out, then I can commit suicide after you leave.” Sage Zhang sighed and didn’t want to explain anything.

He educated people over these 10,000 years and built the Hundred Sage College. He saved many poor kids and he did everything that the Head of Scholars would do.

Sage Zhang was worthy of that title, which was why he didn’t need to explain it to Long Mixu.

“I didn’t come to kill you.” Long Mixu shook her head.

“Then?” Sage Zhang frowned as he looked at Long Mixu.

“I want you to support me to the throne!” Long Mixu grinned and said firmly.

…

In the Bank of the Universe, when Li Xiandao saw this, he waved his sleeves, and these scenes disappeared.

“The situation is clear now. With the Head of Scholars supporting Long Mixu and the Crown Prince supporting her in the dark, she just needs the support of the Ancients.” Li Xiandao was satisfied.

“That step is the most difficult one.” Seven shook her head.

“It is okay; let’s just take it slow.” Li Xiandao waved his hands and said calmly.

…

Outside the fortress!

Xia Wuxu returned to the Great Xia Dynasty and found all the higher-ups to tell them about the loss of the Great Xia Dragonfinch.

“Scoff, that person must have broken through Saint Realm and reached an even higher level. However, our Great Xia Dynasty won’t be so easily beaten.” The Emperor said coldly.

“We must work together with the other powers. Primitive Demon Sect’s three Dao Saints have been killed. We must contact them and gather the 18 demon sects.” Xia Wuxu said solemnly.

“I will leave this matter to you. You lost the Great Xia Dragonfinch and deserve to be beheaded. If you can’t get it back, then you must kill yourself.” Great Xia Dynasty’s Emperor said coldly.

“I will contact Primitive Demon Sect now and gather up all the usable powers to kill him in one blow.” Xia Wuxu said firmly.

“If I can’t kill them, then I will kill myself!” Xia Wuxu made an oath.
