The Bookroom's Big Cabbage

This is a world overflowing with spiritual energy, yet it reveres literature.

Study halls and academies can be found everywhere.

Nangong Yu of the Nangong family was thrown into the mountains by his clan's patriarch as a child. His mastery of literature, military strategy, and Go was all beaten into him.

Nangong Yu once asked the old dean, "Why do people treat us scholars with such respect? It makes no sense."

The old dean stroked his beard and smiled. "Because only we can completely destroy the Heavenly Demons and bring peace to the world."

Nangong Yu: "What are Heavenly Demons?"

The old dean: "You are one. I am one. Every one of the seven emotions and six desires is one."

Nangong Yu: "Then they can never all be destroyed."

The old dean rose to his feet and laughed heartily. "That's precisely why the world respects us."

Nangong Yu understood.

He drew the long sword in his hand. It seemed like half of the Milky Way had been suspended in the sky. With one slash, he cut the Yangtze River in half.
