Chapter 166: Wang Wudi


    "What happened here?"


    Yan Renhuo appeared from behind Wang Ling and tapped him by the shoulders.


    Wang Ling turned around and saw Yan Renhuo holding two jade bottles, each of the jade bottles contained a single pill.


    Looking at the chaos surrounding him, Wang Ling answered with a shrug of a shoulder, "They came running here after I beat up the first bunch." He then pointed to Su Guiying, "This one over here was trouble and was too loud after I beat up her man who failed as a backup for one of those bastards."


    Yan Renhuo looked at the carnage and felt her heart beat faster. The instant her sight found its way back to Wang Ling, her heart was beating wildly and she could not properly hold her breath.


    "Tthis, this is amazing. For you to beat so many people so quickly and efficiently. Brother Wang, you''re a monster." Yan Renhuo''s words reached Wang Ling''s ears and the one she called monster smiled.


    "I have my specialties. Also, your alchemy skills are increasing further, I''m surprised that you actually managed to concoct two grade-3 pills so quickly."


    Wang Ling pointed out her merits and Yan Renhuo was quite happy that he did. Wang Ling had Yan Renhuo follow him away from the pile of ''trash'' that he had umted outside her abode.


    He flew up the skies and Yan Renhuo followed shortly after.


    She then saw Wang Ling take two books out from his storage ring and passed it Yan Renhuo.


    Yan Renhuo epted the books and read the words at the covers, "True Chaos mes? Where did you find this? ording to the records, this book was lost after it was destroyed by the [Unequaled Monarch]! Where did you find this?"


    Wang Ling furrowed his brows after hearing Yan Renhuo''s words.


    [Who''s that bastard? Unequaled Monarch?]


    Yan Renhuo did not catch Wang Ling''s expression. She proceeded with the other book. Sheid her eyes upon the book and her hands trembled. Hurriedly checking the contents of the book, her mind took a blow after realizing its contents.


    "Lolost recipes? These are all lost recipes from the previous era. Where and how did you get this?" She turned to Wang Ling in disbelief, "Yyou, just how much mystery are you hiding? These two books are valuable enough that once it gets out, even the Wang Family will turn to rubbles if thebined forces of the realm attack you."


    "Ha! That will not happen. Like I said before, I trust you enough to let you see the lost recipes I have in hand. For the record, the recipes I have given you so far have all been the fruits of mybor in toiling away as I recreate the recipes."


    Yan Renhuo directed him a suspiciously stare as she stated, "Research you say, then do you mean to say that every recipe in this book legitimate?"


    "Yes! I do!" Wang Ling answered without hesitation.


    Yan Renhuo nodded her head and deep inside, she decided to trust his words. Wang Ling was a genius, he was iprehensible and despite being a genius herself, she knew that Wang Ling was far above hers in terms of different aspects.


    While they floated in the air, Wang Ling suddenly brought up a topic Yan Renhuo was not expecting, "Who''s this [Unequaled Monarch] you spoke of?"


    Yan Renhuo turned to him and gave him a look that clearly states, are you an idiot? Wang Ling raised his hand in resignation as he urged her to speak what she knew of the one they call Unequaled Monarch.


    "I thought everyone in the realm knew of his tales, but who knew that you wouldn''t even know who he was. Listen, the Unequaled Monarch was the one who opened the current era and brought the realm to a harsh but also limitless potentials of the cultivation world.


    "The Unequaled Monarch opened the heavens and purified the qi of the world. As the world was purified, the resources became bountiful and cultivation easier, the world prospered, and although his actions sparked the advent of the Great War that separated the realm, many looks up to him as the one who challenged the heavens.


    "Before he died, he was undefeated and no one can im his equal. His prowess was unmatched and his legend till this day still lives on as the one who is unequaled hence the name Unequaled Monarch. But his name had long been lost. No one knew how it got lost but some theorized that his name rtes to his tittle so his other name is Wang Wudi."


    Wang Ling had no words, the tale of his past ended up so glorified that even he did not know how to respond to it. He could onlyugh at the sheer ridiculousness of the tale they call Wang Wudi.


    He showed a mncholic smile and various thoughts circled in his mind. This time, Yan Renhuo saw his expression, "What is wrong, Brother Wang?"


    Yan Renhuo asked Wang Ling but he only shook his head as he answered, "It is nothing. I was just surprised to learn of such an individual. Also, the True Chaos mes came from one of my expeditions, the cultivation method was carved in a stone in the depths of the mountain range called the White Dragon Valley."


    Wang Ling made a story and Yan Renhuo who did not want to pry any further spoke no longer. Time passed and Wang Ling asked, "The Ancient Scriptures Academy has the Ancient Records Library correct? By any chance, may I browse through it? I only need to browse about the life of Wang Wudi and the significant events of the realm."


    Yan Renhuo thought it through and nodded her head, "I have my master''s emblem and unless the secret records is the things you want I can help you with anything else."


    Wang Ling gave Yan Renhuo a deep and meaningful bow. Yan Renhuo upon Wang Ling''s request went to the Ancient Record''s Library with him.


    They entered easily as they showed the emblem of a grand elder to the guards, Yan Renhuo brought Wang Ling in as her guest.


    There were three different levels in the Ancient Records Library, the information he wanted was at the first level of the library.


    There were three floors in the library and because he only needed to see first-level information, Wang Ling only went to the first floor.


    In there, he found every book he could found about the history of Wang Wudi and how the era strived in the past 200,000 or so years.


    Wang Ling read through Wang Wudi''s records and found there were significant events that had been aplete lie.


    [These things happened so long ago that they are trying to recount events with spection. This is funny in its own way.]


    Wang Ling was amused by how different the events that had actually transpired in the past was lost in the passing of the era.


    It was understandable, with the destruction of the previous era, many died and the records were also destroyed. But in one book, Wang Ling read something that made him raise a brow.


    "[The Sword of the Monarch]." Wang Ling read the content and found that the book was not something written with countless spections of the past, but something of the current era.


    "The Blood Seeker sword of the Unequalled Monarch broke as the fight went on. It experienced two drastic damage beforepletely falling into five different pieces. The first damaged caused the sword to break in half, while the second one caused it to break into four different pieces.


    "The Five different pieces were collected by one man but was then killed by five ns and split it for themselves, the four little pieces ended in the hands of the ns that is now famously known as the [Four Sword ns] and created one sword for each piece of it.


    "Thest andrgest piece is in the hands of the strongest n that have the strongest swordsman of thend, the one who holds the divine de of the Unequaled Monarch, the [Jian n]."


    Wang Ling''s heart thrummed as he learned of something truly interesting. What''s more is that something else caught his eyes, two of the strongest sword-bearing n was something he was all too familiar with, the [Xiao n] and the [Xie n].


    Wang Ling smiled and thenughed. Yan Renhuo was surprised to hear Wang Ling act like so.


    She thought, [Brother Wang is getting influenced by Wang Wudi.]
