Grand Elder Kong Changsen and the Children of the Lineage School

After the meeting, Kong Wenxuan first visited the Grand Elder Kong Changsen.

The First Elder, Kong Changsen, had previously been in charge of the Lineage's school, scripture library, and lecture hall. It can be said that almost every member of the Kong Household today was taught by the First Elder.

Therefore, the First Elder Kong Changsen was highly respected in the clan, his status being only slightly lower than that of the clan leader, and even more respected than the Second Elder Kong Changlan and the Third Elder Kong Changfeng.

Even Kong Wenxuan, although he practiced the "Five Elements True Scripture," which differed greatly from the Lineage's tradition, still received considerable care from the Grand Elder when studying and practicing in the clan school and lecture hall.

During his three years of leave from work at the lecture hall, he did not learn any of the skills taught in the clan. He was able to focus solely on cultivating the "Five Elements True Scripture" and refining the "Five Elements Divine Swords," which was undoubtedly due to the special permission and care of the Grand Elder Kong Changsen.

Even though he hadn't accomplished anything, the fact that he was able to obtain the First Tier "Azure Cloud Bamboo" spiritual material, which he used to refine his first divine sword, the "Azure Wood Divine Sword," was all because the Grand Elder gave him Contribution Points based on his rapid cultivation progress.

Therefore, Kong Wenxuan also respected the Grand Elder Kong Changsen quite a bit. Now that he knew that the Grand Elder had failed to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage and suffered serious injuries, he naturally couldn't help but visit him.

At the Lineage's ancestral school, Kong Wenxuan met with the Grand Elder Kong Changsen.

Although the other party was severely injured and very old, he was not lying in a hospital bed, but was still active in the clan school.

Even on the surface, the Grand Elder did not appear weak or sickly; on the contrary, he had a ruddy complexion and was agile.

However, Kong Wenxuan could see that this was not a good sign, because the Grand Elder Kong Changsen could no longer control the Law Power in his Dantian and the essence and blood power in his body.

His body is now like a sieve, with his Law Power, essence, and bloodline power slowly leaking out of him, becoming uncontrollable.

It was the leakage of Law Power, essence, and bloodline power that made him appear rosy-cheeked and agile, not at all like a severely injured and frail old man.

But in fact, his body was like a sieve, which meant that no matter what pills or spiritual objects the Grand Elder took, they were useless. This was the main reason why he could not recover from his severe injuries and could only walk step by step toward death.

Moreover, the pain of clearly feeling one's Law Power, essence, and bloodline power flowing out of the body every day is like having one's tendons and bones torn apart, which is undoubtedly far more painful than lying in a hospital bed.

But Elder Kong Changsen didn't seem to care; instead, he maintained a constant smile.

According to him, he was already very lucky and satisfied to be able to see his Lineage re- Star Inlaying and advance to the "Ninth-Grade True Spirit" Lineage while he was still alive.

He was already much luckier than many of his peers and elders.

If there truly is a place for souls to return to in this world, when he meets his ancestors, he can stand tall and tell them: the student he taught has successfully Star Inlaying to the Lineage, allowing the Lineage to once again ascend to the position of "Ninth-Grade True Spirit"!

Kong Wenxuan talked a lot with the elder in the clan school, but the elder did most of the talking. He talked about the hardships and joys of the clan in the past, the interesting stories of each generation of Lineage members in the clan school and lecture hall, and Kong Wenxuan's performance in the clan school and lecture hall.

He also patted himself on the back, saying that he had long seen through Kong Wenxuan's extraordinary nature and that following the updates had never been so enjoyable. Therefore, he rewarded Kong Wenxuan with Contribution Points to support him, proving that he had a keen eye for talent.

Finally, Elder Kong Changsen also asked Kong Wenxuan to give a lesson to the children in the clan school.

Kong Wenxuan did not refuse, even though he was not good at lecturing and did not know what to teach these children in the clan who were a few years old or teenagers.

However, after the elder introduced himself to the children as the hero who had helped the Lineage Lineage Star Inlaying and restore it to the status of a "Ninth-Grade True Spirit" Lineage, the children, who were a few years old and in their teens, cheered and looked at him with great admiration.

It is evident that the clan school has instilled a great deal of information about him in these children during daily teaching and lectures, and has even established him as a role model and object of admiration for these children, encouraging them to learn from him.

That's why these children are so excited and full of admiration when they see him now.

Upon seeing this, Kong Wenxuan had an idea. He didn't talk to the children about cultivation or demonstrate the power of the "Five Elements Divine Swords." Instead, he sat among the children and told them about his process of Star Inlaying.

Sure enough, the children in the clan school were very interested in his process of Star Inlaying.

Even the Grand Elder Kong Changsen, as well as some of the clan's teachers and cultivators who were in charge of teaching at the clan school, were quite interested and gathered around to listen to him talk about the process of Star Inlaying.

When he spoke of the "Ninth-Grade True Spirit Heaven" where stars gathered, the children, the elder, and the teachers all looked on with longing; when he spoke of fighting and killing endless Demon Beast, everyone's faces showed tension.

When they heard him recount the battles he fought against the Second Tier martial artists, the chariot-riding soldiers, and the Second Tier sword cultivators, they were all startled and exclaimed in surprise.

Looking at the energetic and youthful students, and then at the equally smiling Elder Kong Changsen, Kong Wenxuan understood why the elder was unwilling to lie in a hospital bed and wait to die, but instead chose to stay in the clan school to teach these children.

At the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He was telling his story of Star Inlaying not only to the children, but also to the Grand Elder.

Just as the other person said, if there really is a place for souls to go in this world, when the other person's soul goes to see the elders and ancestors of the Kong Household, he can also brag about these Star Inlaying processes, making him hold his head high even more.

Finally, amidst the children's laughter and joy, Kong Wenxuan bid farewell to Elder Kong Changsen and left the clan school.

When he turned to look at the clan school, he could see the eldest elder Kong Changsen, laughing and talking among a group of children.

Suddenly, she understood that the main reason why the clan leader, the second elder, the second aunt, the third aunt, and others chose to expand the Lineage's territory and build "Peacock County Seat" as soon as possible was that the Lineage's finances were about to run out.

But another reason is probably to fulfill the wish of the Grand Elder Kong Changsen, so that he could see the territory and county town that belonged to the Kong Household before his death!

Although the Grand Elder did not mention this at all during the meeting, he never showed any regret.

However, Kong Wenxuan, along with the clan leader, the second elder, the eldest uncle, the second aunt, and others, all knew that this must be a great regret in the heart of the eldest elder.

They all wanted the Grand Elder to leave this world without any regrets.
