Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 940 - 7 Her Attitude is the Same to Everyone
The so-called heiress can actually be divided into two types.
One is pampered and extravagant, commonly seen among the second-generation wealthy.
The other is raised with strict education, trained to become the matriarch, commonly seen in aristocratic families of many generations.
Shen Qingxi is a true second-generation rich; her family prospered for only two generations, collapsing completely by her time.
Yet when she acts seriously and without humor, the aura of an upper-class individual she displays always sends chills down Wang Yunxiao’s spine.
The deal proposed by Shen Qingxi is to exchange the Righteous Path’s textbook of the Twelve Dharma Gates for a follow-up plan to handle the Echo Erosion they left in the Dreamland.
The textbooks are actually easy to obtain.
The official channel offers public training materials—as long as you attend school.
But Shen Qingxi is already about to graduate high school.
With her connections, getting the textbooks isn’t hard, and the Shen Family’s Chess Herald Path textbooks are produced wholesale.
But what she wants is a Righteous Dharma Gate tailored for herself.
Qinghe Middle School happens to provide such a personalized service.
Shen Qingxi herself said, as a dignified transmigrator and engineering prodigy, what’s wrong with choosing Engineer, or studying Modern Physics? Isn’t this the choice any normal person would make?
You can’t look down on my subject choice just because you failed physics!
Who would’ve thought that there were extra perks to the Righteous Path?!
The Righteous Path is actually super difficult to cultivate, especially for someone like Shen Qingxi, whose values are already formed. Reshaping them is akin to killing her.
Not just her, but even her teacher, Mountain Leader Kong Ting of Jishan Academy, couldn’t find a way without straying further on the Heretical Path.
Bai Shanshan, the instructor at Qinghe Middle School, is a "Great Commander" of the Priest Technique in the Righteous Path, with the ability to observe, control, and alter mortal fates.
Her teaching level has never been up to par, but the textbooks she selects for each student are never wrong.
"You are not suited to cultivate the Righteous Path."
Upon seeing Shen Qingxi in person, Bai Shanshan dashed all her hopes with a single sentence.
Shen Qingxi wasn’t angry; she patiently asked, "Why am I not suitable?"
Bai Shanshan glanced at Wang Yunxiao, who accompanied Shen Qingxi, and after a moment of silence, spoke: "Do you know what the essence of the Twelve Dharma Gate System is?"
"Could you explain?"
"Cultivators like you, who’ve already endured the shocks of Temporal Tide, are eligible to access this knowledge."
Bai Shanshan stated sternly, "The essence of the Twelve Dharma Gate cultivation system is cognition, and the aim is to build a defense net through strong cognition to withstand Temporal Tide shocks and safely pass the Shiyan Doomsday."
"The Righteous Path of the Twelve Dharma Gates and its twenty-eight branching paths correspond to the twenty-eight constellations. These aren’t twenty-eight super strong beings but twenty-eight anchor points forming the entire defense net."
Shen Qingxi raised an eyebrow, "Like screws and nuts in a machine?"
"Exactly."
"Is this a Doomsday Plan?"
"Yes, now that you know what a Doomsday Plan is, the rest is easier to explain."
Bai Shanshan nodded, "When the Shiyan arrives, the entire space-time will disintegrate. Everything we have may turn into nothingness, from nearby friends and family to the civilization and history of an entire nation, all could vanish. No one knows what the world will become after Shiyan passes."
"So, the first consideration is, what must be preserved at all costs to rebuild a home after the doomsday?"
"Our choice is—civilization."
"As long as the fire of civilization keeps burning, the heritage remains, and the narrative doesn’t change, even after the doomsday catastrophe, we can rise again on the wasteland."
Shen Qingxi frowned, "Sounds like the Ancient Dragon Court?"
"The Ancient Dragon Court has already set out, and those who remain must continue living, with no intention of giving up on resisting the doomsday. If possible, having everyone survive would be the most Complete ending."
"So, you see, for a Righteous Path cultivator in the Twelve Dharma Gates, besides innate cognitive talent, there is a potential necessary condition, a willingness to dedicate and sacrifice oneself to build a high wall against Temporal Tide for this country, nation, and civilization."
Bai Shanshan shook her head, "But you’re different; you focus too much on yourself."
"Too focused on myself?"
Shen Qingxi nearly laughed, "My family’s money can’t be spent in this lifetime. If I were truly selfish, I’d just indulge in luxuries with my checkbook. Why would I actively seek answers to these problems?"
"Selfishness and self-focus are two different things."
Bai Shanshan explained, "The main difference between Righteous Path and Heretical Path of the Twelve Dharma Gates is collective cognition versus individual cognition. You focus too much on your own feelings; the so-called search for answers is actually just to satisfy your own curiosity."
"Have you seriously considered doing something for this world?"
Shen Qingxi was rendered speechless.
After a moment of silence, she raised her head and said, "It doesn’t matter. If you think I have no talent, can’t it be understood conversely that I can cultivate any path? Can’t I choose for myself?"
Bai Shanshan thought for a moment, nodded, "Fine, I’m just providing suggestions. How you choose to spend your time is your business."
She waved her sleeve, and twelve textbooks lined up on the table.
Additionally, there was a psychological survey questionnaire.
"You can take a psychological survey first to see which one suits you best..."
"We already know the result, so what’s the point?"
Shen Qingxi smiled, "You’re right; I choose to trust myself."
She took out a shiny Silver and flicked it up with her thumb.
The Silver spun high and landed on one of the textbooks.
"I believe a genius beauty like me can handle any course."
Shen Qingxi pulled out that textbook, and the cover read "Heavenly Inquiry" in large characters.
Witch Doctor Technique Righteous Path—Plain Explanation of "Heavenly Inquiry."
"Alright!"
Shen Qingxi squinted her eyes and clenched her fist in celebration.
"This name is just perfect for me. Look, isn’t there a textbook that suits me? How should I cultivate this?"
"Self-study."
"Huh?"
"I’ve told you the principles clearly, the rest is up to your skill, genius beauty."
Without saying a word, Shen Qingxi hugged the textbook and walked out of Bai Shanshan’s office, only speaking softly to Wang Yunxiao after walking a great distance from the school: "That old woman is clearly jealous of my youth and beauty."
"No, you’re overthinking it."
Wang Yunxiao felt obliged to clarify for Teacher Bai, "It’s not about attitude; she’s the same with everyone. It’s mainly about skill; she really doesn’t teach well."
