"This is merely destiny, hmm, just like the Xuanyuan Cauldron, destiny will reveal itself when the opportunity arises," Chen Xi said with a smile.

"Destiny will reveal itself?" Jian Yong looked at Chen Xi with a sense of loss, saying no more. Is everything so coincidental? Is it truly the so-called convergence of fate? As his grasp on literary thought becomes increasingly precise, after comprehending one aspect leading to enlightenment of others, it seems as if all destinies were predetermined by Chen Xi.

"Hmm, destiny will reveal itself!" Chen Xi nodded emphatically.

"Alright, I believe it." Jian Yong said with a smile, some things are better left unexplained for everyone's benefit.

After wrapping up all affairs, Liu Bei took his entourage back to Ye City, while various generals led their respective troops to prepare to clean up the bandit problems in Jizhou. The civil officials mostly gathered in small groups, discussing how to address their respective governmental duties. After all, governing the realm isn't as straightforward as battlefield scheming.

"Wen Ru, are you certain that the item you created this time won't reveal any flaws?" Chen Xi said with some worry.

"Rest assured, these minor tricks of theft are quite good, it's hard for anyone to surpass my level," Li Youu said casually. He created an artifact signifying the Hundred Schools of Thought Return to the Origin at Chen Xi's request.

"The issue is why do I feel like Xianhe noticed something amiss?" Chen Xi said worriedly.

"Fearing it's fake, but worrying others won't recognize it; as long as the world accepts this thing, even if it's fake, it is real!" Li Youu sneered, "Do you think Xianhe would disclose his suspicions to others?"

"No, but I'm worried others might notice something wrong just from the item itself," Chen Xi said, distressed.

"You don't need to worry about this; the item is indeed five thousand years old oracle bone, and it certainly does contain hexagrams. I merely added a few strokes, and the tortoise shell happens to be black and white!" Li Youu said with a smiling demeanor. He found it quite coincidental, but indeed, luck was that good to have just such an item.

"These coincidences are too much," Chen Xi said slightly dumbfounded, looking at Li Youu. Such coincidences to this degree are too exaggerated.

"Alright, not joking, whether called coincidence or destiny, it's not excessive to say that; but to be realistic, we excavated tens of thousands of fragments of initial texts and hexagrams, having about one hundred eighty pieces with such special tortoise shells is quite normal," Li Youu chuckled.

"Why so many?" Chen Xi initially froze, then looked oddly at Li Youu. This is supposed to be five thousand years after the Late Han; how can there be so many?

"Five thousand years ago, there were only a very few pieces, but in the era of the Yuy Dynasty three thousand years ago, there were these items; two thousand years ago, during the Shang Dynasty, there were also such things, so you understand," Li Youu laughed, knowing these items well, definitely of supreme treasure status.

"Speaking of which, you didn't damage them, right?" Chen Xi nodded, making sense; if they were this fierce five thousand years ago, record-making sages documenting civilization history should have appeared.

"The group of Great Confucian Scholars excavating alongside were nearly driven to mad excitement, their value outweighs life; would they damage them? Holding privately is more plausible," Li Youu shook his head, "However, private possession doesn't affect much, the quantity remains considerable, they've been catalogued, impossible for them to take away now, they are being nurtured and identified nonstop."

"And did they notice you tampering?" Chen Xi asked cautiously.

"I didn't tamper; Lord Kang Cheng realized it himself," Li Youu glanced sideways at Chen Xi, directly denying any interference.

"Hmm, I didn't do anything either," Chen Xi nodded, "What does Lord Kang Cheng think?"

"Lord Kang Cheng perfectly explained the concept of Hundred Schools of Thought having the same origin," Li Youu said expressionlessly, "And it's even more complete than the material we prepared."

"Moreover, since a large group excavated it together, present were Wang Yanfang, Bing Genju, Guann You'an, Zhao Binqing, and many renowned scholars; with their supplementation, the concept of Hundred Schools having the same origin is impeccable." Seeing Chen Xi's rolling eyes, Li Youu continued, academically, this group of Great Scholars is absolutely unmatched!

"Directly tell me to what extent it's impeccable," Chen Xi frowned, needing a definitive word; who knows that somewhere a fierce scholar might pop up questioning not the authenticity but theoretically overturning the Hundred Schools Return, then it's over.

"Minister Cai and Gentleman Lu reborn had no means to find any faults; originally, the concept you devised already laid the foundation for ideological unification, they merely made this unification more perfect." Li Youu lamented, wondering how Chen Xi merely conceived it, whether it was just a thought or simply a replication.

"Hehehe," Chen Xi chuckled without further comment, indeed, that thing isn't merely conceiving an idea, but if copying then it's too simple; yet since Cai Yong and Lu Zhi reborn could not find any flaws, the obscured era of history without writing was now rewritten!

Li Youu glanced at Chen Xi without asking further; heavenly talent is not merely for jest, who knows if they really thought it through this way.

After confirming that the matter of the Hundred Schools Return had become an irrefutable case, Chen Xi was completely relieved; this marks the first step of the Central Plains towards the world, the Huaxia Nation's legacy has never been spoken of as lineage, it has always been a cultural transmission.

The conflict between Mohism and Yangzi is incompatible until the prominent Yangzi gradually disappeared from history; the conflict between Confucian School and Mohist is relentless until prominent Mohist vanished from history.

With cultural bonds stronger than bloodlines, no matter the reform, the connection between each cannot be distorted; in the cycle of annexation and counter-annexation, they end up as one family.

Using millennia of transmitted civilization and cultural inclusiveness far exceeding historical average level, gradually dye the entire world in uniform color, the cultural compatibility of the strongest civilization through the ages, with powerful martial force assurance, the journey beyond the Five Garments of the Central Plains, the world is the beginning of conquest!

Conquering the world relies not solely on martial force; sometimes, a gentle cultural invasion unknowingly suffices to transform them into one's people, especially in the Central Plains, where lineage isn't emphasized but cultural legacy is paramount, successfully enlightening outside peoples is eternally one of all civil officials' highest aspirations!

Fighting incessantly is so discordant, assimilation is the most suitable method, military conquest unless eradication ensures future revolt, the entire nation stained in blood isn't Chen Xi's wish.

As the nation possessing the strongest martial force of this era, don the robes of sages, cloak oneself in civilization promulgation, crown oneself with the halo of the pioneer for truth, virtue, and beauty; from this moment already possessing the foundation to color the entire earth yellow.
