Ning Xiaoya was a young lady.
To what extent?
One of the eight families in Shen 'du, the strongest family sequence in Xia country.
Although Ning wasn't one of the eight families, she was indeed one of them.
In the past, Zhu Hongxiu, the eldest daughter of the Zhu Family, one of the Eight Families, who had inherited the legacy of the Song Dynasty's great scholar Zhu Xi, met a commoner man surnamed Ning while she was studying at Luoyang University.
Although the man surnamed Ning was a commoner, he was a genius who was talented enough to match the eldest daughter of the Zhu family.
In the demonic era, as long as one was talented enough, there would be no such thing as sectarianism. They would naturally get to know each other, fall in love, and then get married. There were no tests of class gap in novels, no touching love stories. It was plain and uneventful.
After that, the two of them, who were in love, gave birth to a daughter after being married for several years. She was Ning Xiaoya.
The Zhu family was a descendant of Zhu Xi, a master of the " philosophy ". They were born not long after the revival of the demonic path and the appearance of the Holy Star. Everyone was still feeling their way through the river.
His wisdom was unparalleled in his life, and his position in Confucianism was equivalent to Mr. Yang Ming's position in the study of the mind.
But in the end, because the demonic path system was not yet mature, as well as various other reasons, this world's great talent could not successfully vindicate his Dao and stopped at the Demon God Abyss.
Different from the school of the mind, where the mind is the reason and the outside is unreasonable, the school of Confucianism represented by Zhu Xi advocated that the nature is the reason and that the natural law exists to eliminate human desires.
The two were of the same origin, but they were different in details. One was external and the other was internal. At that time, it was difficult to tell who was better.
He and Lu Jiuyuan, the representative of the School of Mind, who said," My heart is the universe, and the universe is my heart," argued about the concept for a lifetime. Even when the two of them both became Taoists, there was no conclusion.
It wasn't until hundreds of years later that Mr. Yang Ming appeared out of nowhere and pushed the study of the mind to the peak, obtaining the position of Demon God, that the battle of the mind was decided.
With Mr. Yang Ming's endorsement and refutation of the school of thought, under the majesty of the Demon God, the school of thought was naturally listed as the " wrong path " by the world. No one cultivated this school anymore. Even the Zhu family themselves gave up on the school of thought and switched to another path.
However, although the Zhu Clan had given up on the cultivation of science, they still retained some things.
For example…Zhu Xi's "Three cardinal guides and five constant virtues".
The monarch is the ruler of the minister, the father is the ruler of the son, and the husband is the ruler of the wife.
Love is benevolence, righteousness is righteousness, the monarch's etiquette, wisdom is wisdom, love is faith.
The foundation of the three cardinal guides and five constant virtues is "the father is the son's cardinal guides". What does this mean?
It was very simple.
What the father advocated for the son was absolute filial piety. What was absolute?
Parents were absolute.
They must absolutely obey their parents 'orders. They must never admit their parents' mistakes. Even if they were really wrong, their children must think that they were right. They must never anger their parents.
In front of their parents, the only thing a child could do was show filial piety. As long as it was for their parents, other standards of good and evil could not be considered.
This was 'filial piety comes first among all goods'!
Ning Xiaoya had received such an education since she was young!
She was extremely talented. On the day she was born, Shen Du City was clearly in the middle of the day, but it suddenly fell into darkness. Although it was only for a short moment, it was still shocking.
After all, that was Fairy's Capital!
It was the center of Xia Country!
More than eighty-five percent of the country's powerhouses were in this place. The number of magic arrays and protective measures set up was astronomical. Even ten thousand nuclear bombs would not be able to affect this place. A newborn child could actually affect the entire Fairy's Capital for a moment. It was simply ridiculous.
As a result, she was determined to be the owner of natural magic, and the natural magic she carried was named " Absent Sun."
Her outstanding talent caused her to naturally receive the attention of the Zhu Clan. Even though she had a foreign surname, she was still chosen as the direct descendant of the current Zhu Clan and was wholeheartedly nurtured.
She was the pride of the Zhu family and her parents. She had never disappointed anyone. She began her cultivation at the age of five and attained her second ring at the age of six. In order to nurture her foundation, she stayed at the second ring for a full ten years and only attained her third ring at the age of sixteen.
If the spiritual universe of an ordinary third-circle sorcerer was said to be as bright as the Morning Star, then the third-circle Ning Xiaoya was like the newborn sun, completely covering the radiance of any Morning Star!
In the magic world, this phenomenon was evaluated as the " Morning Sun " level.
It meant that as long as he didn't die, he would definitely become the rising sun of the Nine Rings Radiant Sun!
In terms of ability, she was already determined to be a peerless genius with nine rings in the future. She even had the qualifications to cross the Demon God Abyss. In terms of looks, she was rated as the most beautiful woman among the younger generation in Luoyang. In terms of character, she was gentle and filial. She followed all the three cardinal guides and five virtues. She was a perfect person.
However, no one knew that such a perfect person had always been suppressing herself and living for others.
Her family had high hopes for her, so she worked hard to cultivate and finally reached her current realm.
Her parents wanted her to be filial, so she was obedient in everything. She had never been naughty since she was young and let them enjoy the happiness of family.
Her friends hoped that she would be kind, her teachers hoped that she would be obedient, and her younger brother regarded her as a role model…
Countless people had placed their ideal " Ning Xiaoya " on her. In order to respond to these expectations, Ning Xiaoya kept doing things that met the expectations of others, suppressing her true thoughts.
In other words, she didn't even know if she had her own thoughts.
Then, in the process of living for others, someone suddenly said something strange.
"From now on, you should live for yourself.」
It wasn't persuasion or comfort, but an order.
Domineering and unreasonable, Ning Xiaoya felt the first time in her life that she had experienced true gentleness.
Accompanying this sentence was a sense of relief that she had never felt before.
It was as if the shackles that had been tightly bound since birth had suddenly loosened, allowing her to experience the beauty of freedom.
Thus, the girl half-knelt on the ground and swore in her heart.
As you wish, I will follow your orders. From now on…
Ning Xiaoya would live for herself.
Until... when you gave the order.
The girl who had been saved secretly made an unknown decision.
