Chapter 166 - Wang Wudi (1/2)
”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.
”T—this, 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 acc.u.mulated 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 accepted the books and read the words at the covers, ”True Chaos Flames? Where did you find this? According 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. She laid 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.
”Lo—lost recipes? These are all lost recipes from the previous era. Where and how did you get this?” She turned to Wang Ling in disbelief, ”Y—you, 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 the combined 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 my labor 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 incomprehensible 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.
