Reading Is Holy! Exposed By My Junior Sister!

Chapter 68: Knowing to Use an Umbrella on a Rainy Day, a Promising Future!

"The Book of Confucianism" does not refer to a single book, but rather a category of books that contain the inheritance of Confucianism and Taoism.

Confucian books can cultivate and nurture.

For Confucian practitioners, the effect is significant.

Not only can it greatly increase the speed of cultivation, but it can also cultivate a more genuine and high-level Literary Aura.

Moreover, Confucian books have another major characteristic.

That is to increase the lifespan of Confucian practitioners.

Although not much, only a few hundred years.

Is a few hundred years a long time?

Not really!

But, that also depends on who it is for.

For other cultivators, even those at the Five Realms or Four Realms level of cultivation.

Their lifespan is at least in the thousands.

A few hundred years, although not insignificant to them, only slightly extends their lifespan.

Having it is a joy, not having it is not a regret.

However, for Confucian practitioners who only have a lifespan of two or three hundred years.

Two or three hundred years is almost like another lifetime for them.

No one can resist this temptation!

On the stage, Wang Changqing seems to be aware of the enthusiasm of the crowd.

So he quickly gets to the point.

"Ladies and gentlemen, next we will be auctioning a Confucian book!"

"This book is called 'The Sacred Library'."

"It is one of the ancient classics forged by the ancient sage 'Liang Sheng' of the Confucian Nine Realms in the 'Divine Abyss'."

"It contains a total of thirteen pavilions, capable of accommodating the laws of two Seven Realms sages and eleven great Confucians, with the essence of the heavens and earth!"

"This book not only greatly improves the Literary Aura and increases its quality by more than fifty percent."

"It can also extend the holder's lifespan by one hundred and fifty years!"

"Endless possibilities for advancement!"

"The starting price is eighty thousand Dao Source Stones!"

"Each bid must not be less than one thousand Dao Source Stones."

"Please reveal your prices!"

Bang!

Immediately followed by the familiar sound of the gavel.

The auction begins.

"Ninety thousand Dao Source Stones!"

As soon as Wang Changqing's voice fell, the sound of bidding immediately rang out in the venue.

It was a Confucian great scholar!

"One hundred thousand Dao Source Stones!"

Immediately after, another voice sounded.

The owner of this voice is not a member of the Confucian school.

However, not being a member of the Confucian school does not mean that he has no need for Confucian books.

Although he is not a member of the Confucian school, he also has a great Confucian he wants to befriend.

I believe that there is no Confucian great scholar in the world who would refuse a request for a Confucian book!

Therefore, the scene inevitably heated up again.

This scene made Xuanqingzi in the private room anxious like an ant on a hot pan.

"No, Junior Brother, no matter what, we must obtain this 'Sacred Library'!"

Afterwards, he made a firm decision and said to Chen Chang'an.

"Junior Brother, are you planning to win this book for me?"

Chen Chang'an looked at Xuanqingzi's expression and asked with some surprise.

Xuanqingzi shook his head, then nodded, and said with deep meaning:

"Chang'an, this is not just for you, but also for our sect."

"And, in the past, because of your lack of cultivation and rarely leaving the mountain."

"So whether you have a suitable weapon in your hand doesn't matter."

"But now it's different, now you are a great Confucian in the world."

"It's time to equip you with a suitable weapon."

Upon hearing Xuanqingzi's words, Chen Chang'an shook his head.

"Senior Brother, I understand your thoughts."

"However, you should know that in recent years, due to blood deficiency..."

"My lifespan has long been on the verge of extinction."

"Even with the nourishment of Confucianism now, I can only live for a little over a hundred years at most."

"This Confucian book, for others, may be able to extend their lives by a hundred years."

"But for me, I estimate that I won't even live for twenty years."

"A hundred years later, I will inevitably become a pile of dry bones."

"If you want to acquire this 'Confucian book,' it would cost at least two hundred thousand Dao Yuan Shi."

"To spend such a large price, just for someone like me who can't live for more than a hundred years, what's the point?"

Speaking up to this point, Chen Chang'an couldn't help but change the topic and said,

"Moreover, it seems that we don't have any extra Dao Yuan Shi to acquire it."

However, before Chen Chang'an finished speaking, Xuan Qingzi interjected,

"Junior brother, you don't need to say more!"

"I have made up my mind about this matter!"

"Whether it's for you or for the sect, we must acquire this 'Supreme Sage Library'!"

"As for the issue of Dao Yuan Shi, don't worry. Although the sect usually lags behind,"

"But after so many years of accumulation, we can still afford to buy a 'Confucian book'!"

Xuan Qingzi's words were resolute and decisive.

It was evident that he was truly determined to acquire this 'Confucian book.'

"By the way, junior brother, I heard that you recently earned over two hundred thousand Dao Yuan Shi from the sect leader, right?"

"How about lending me some?"

With these words, Xuan Qingzi suddenly changed the subject and said to Chen Chang'an.

Chen Chang'an: "..."

Initially, he was quite moved by Xuan Qingzi's words, but after hearing this last sentence,

Chen Chang'an suddenly felt that his initial sentiment was somewhat hasty.

"Junior brother, don't worry. I will exchange it with the sect's Dao Yuan Shi spiritual vein when we return."

However, judging from Xuan Qingzi's appearance, it seemed like he was serious and not joking.

"Senior brother, should we acquire it?"

At this moment, Mao Ruxue's voice also came over.

The little girl looked timid, her eyes filled with questions.

To be honest, Mao Ruxue agreed with acquiring this Confucian book, "Supreme Sage Library."

Because she heard the words "extend lifespan" in the conversation between Xuan Qingzi and Chen Chang'an just now.

If it could prolong her senior brother's lifespan a little, then spending some money was worth it.

After all, he was her senior brother, how could she just watch him pass away?

Moreover, her senior brother was a respected Confucian scholar in the Six Realms.

If he could live a little longer, she could also enjoy more protection.

That was the protection of an extraordinary Confucian scholar!

Are you impressed or not?

Well, Mao Ruxue would never admit that the second reason was the main point.

"Never mind, if you want to acquire it, then acquire it."

"No need to borrow money, I have it. I'll use my own."

Seeing this scene, Chen Chang'an couldn't help but sigh and compromise.

Afterward, he threw a storage ring to Mao Ruxue.

"Junior sister, all the Dao Yuan Shi is in here, you can go ahead and acquire it."

There was no other choice.

After all, judging from Xuan Qingzi's attitude, if he didn't agree today, he would find another way.

The fertile water doesn't flow into someone else's field.

If they wanted to acquire it, then acquire it.

Coincidentally, this 'Confucian book,' "Supreme Sage Library," was different from the previously auctioned Purple-Green Immortal Sword.

There was no inheritance in the "Supreme Sage Library," and it would disappear after the owner's death.

It wouldn't be passed down as an inheritance.

So, there wouldn't be any messy cause and effect entanglements.

In this case, when 'he dies a hundred years later,' Heavenly Water Sect wouldn't be in danger.

Thus, he wouldn't have to crawl out of the grave and do any foolish things like trying to turn the tide.

Instead, he could peacefully 'die.'

In short, when it rains, one should know to use an umbrella. The future looks promising!
