Chapter 666 – Written by Cang Rong

“Stealing the scroll and making it public — if this isn’t handled right, then not only will you become the Rong family’s sinner, but you’ll also make the entire Rong family the target of criticism. Although Spirit Sect has declined, six of the current twelve secular sects were all created by descendants of Spirit Sect, and they’ve always set up their sect with the slogan of reviving Spirit Sect. If you let people know that the disaster of the world originated from Spirit Sect, how can they let the Rong family go easily?”

Yan Tianhen said solemnly, “You have to think hard about this. Once you do this, there’s no turning back.”

Rong Zhishui also knew that the matter was of great importance, but he had a balance in his heart. It was impossible for this balance of his to be influenced by the Rong family or people of the Nine Lands just because of fear and worry.

Rong Zhishui said, “Since I dared to put it forward, I’ve naturally thought about it. Only the Rong family’s Young Master, Patriarch, and First Elder are qualified to see what is recorded on the scroll, but everyone actually sees different parts of the scroll. Someone with more affinity can see more. Many people have seen the scroll over the years, but the Rong family still wasn’t able to read the entire scroll. Every one of us can only transcribe what we saw ourselves. Currently, we only know the Demon Emperor’s identity, how powerful demonic and evil Qi dual cultivators are, the core disciples of Spirit Sect, and what Spirit Sect did for the Nine Lands in that Great Immortal-Demon War.”

Yan Tianhen’s gaze carelessly swept over the flowers on both sides of the road, and he spoke even more indifferently, “Isn’t it enough to know these things? Compared to other people, what you guys know is closest to the truth, and you’ve more or less pieced together the whole story. Why are you still unsatisfied?”

“Of course there are a lot of unsatisfactory places.” Rong Zhishui calmly looked at Yan Tianhen. “Is everything we see in the scroll true?”

Yan Tianhen was stunned. “What do you mean?”

Rong Zhishui replied, “I didn’t tell anyone else in the Rong family that the some of the contents I saw was different from what they all saw.”

Yan Tianhen gazed at Rong Zhishui.

Rong Zhishui continued, “Everyone believed that this scroll was written by the survivors of the Great Immortal-Demon War, but in reality, I saw the characters ‘Cang Rong’ on the last page of the scroll. The magic on this scroll is very profound. I don’t think it could’ve been written by anyone else besides the Rong family’s first ancestor.”

“Moreover, I once traced that signature from memory and had my ancestor’s Dao companion take a look.” Rong Zhishui’s eyes glittered. “He said that this was indeed written by Cang Rong.”

Yan Tianhen, “…”

Since Lian Hua stamped his seal of approval, then it must have been written by Cang Rong. If it truly was written by Cang Rong, then Yan Tianhen was actually a little curious. He really wanted to know what the battlefield was like from the perspective of someone who had participated in the Great Immortal-Demon War.

But this wasn’t enough to truly tempt Yan Tianhen.

Yan Tianhen raised his eyebrows. “So what if it came from Cang Rong’s hands? In any case, this scroll has nothing to do with me. Besides, I’m an outsider. How can I justify going to your Rong family to steal something? I won’t go, I won’t go. You can find someone else. I promise I won’t sell you out.”

Rong Zhishui asked, “Aren’t you curious about what actually happened in the Great Immortal-Demon War?”

“I didn’t expect you to like gossip so much.”

Yan Tianhen smiled. “You flatter me. People should be full of the desire to explore the unknown world.”

Rong Zhishui watched Yan Tianhen stroll towards the dormitory. He gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, then rushed up and threw an arm around Yan Tianhen’s shoulder, whispering in his ear, “Didn’t I just say that I saw something that no one else in the Rong family could see?”

“What are you doing so close to me? I can’t give and accept such affections. I won’t be able to explain if Huarong Gege sees me. Get away……”

“My old ancestor said that most of the scroll’s earlier records are bullshit. The reason Youshan Lingyu cultivated evil Qi was because he had no choice. He was backstabbed when keeping watch over Heaven’s Wail, and half of his cultivation, Dantian Qi Sea, and meridians were destroyed. Someone forcefully poured evil Qi into his body and was scheming him from beginning to end. They forced him to fall to evil Qi cultivation and become a vessel for evil Qi. And that person is the true culprit of the Nine Lands’ disaster, the Dao Zu that everyone today worships and respects!”

Yan Tianhen’s steps suddenly stopped.

His brain exploded. First everything was blank, then an overwhelming pain appeared in his Dantian, spreading throughout his four limbs and hundreds of bones.

Why did Cang Rong record these things?

He had already forgotten all that dark past, and he also thought that it was a good thing to bury it all in the sands of history. So why did someone still insist on mentioning it again after all the dust had settled ten thousand years later, and why did they want to help him reverse the verdict?

No, that’s wrong. There are some mistakes in Cang Rong’s records.

Yan Tianhen took a deep breath to calm down.

He hid the confusion deep in his eyes, and his black eyes were fixed on Rong Zhishui. Rong Zhishui was so startled that he took a step back.
