Chapter 139: Emperor Xia’s Secret

The Xia Emperor clenched his fists even tighter, and his strength grew even greater. From his actions, it could be seen just how much fury was hidden in his heart. Once it was released, even the heavens and earth would not be able to withstand it!
He extended his right hand.
Wei Shang hurriedly helped him out of the dragon bed. He walked to the window and pushed it open. He looked at the sky outside. The blue sky and white clouds were as blue as the wild. The gentle sunlight warmed his heart, but his heart was cold. The words he said were the same.
“In my life, I have fought against the heavens, the earth, the Shang, the True Spirit, the demons, the Holy Land… He had never compromised or lost, but he did not expect to be defeated by them!”
“This is not something that can be done in a year or two. It will take at least twenty years, or even longer!”
It was precisely because of this that there was no way to investigate. Without any clues, he could not kill anyone even if he wanted to. This was the most frustrating thing.
“Give the True Spirit Pill to me!”
Wei Shang closed the window and helped him sit down on the dragon bed. He patted the Sumeru Pouch on his waist and solemnly took out a golden jade box. It was only the size of an adult’s palm and was very exquisite. It was engraved with a seal and a talisman to prevent the medicinal power from leaking out.
He opened the box to reveal a golden pill. Golden light filled the air, illuminating the pill and transforming it into the image of a true spirit. It alternated between a true dragon, a phoenix, and a green bird. The rich medicinal fragrance was completely sealed within the box, unable to spread out at all.
The moment the box was opened, the True Spirit Pill seemed to have gained sentience. It turned into a golden light and wanted to rush out and escape.
Bang!
The restriction on the box activated and a golden light rippled out, blocking it and sending out golden ripples.
He handed over the jade box, and the Xia Emperor casually accepted it. He held the True Spirit Pill between two fingers. The beast, which had been trying to escape just a moment ago, immediately quieted down and stopped struggling.
Looking at it, he was silent for a long time before consuming it!
In the library.
Ding Yi craned his neck to take a look. Seeing that there was no one around, he closed the palace door sneakily and locked it from the inside. He stopped in front of Zhang Ronghua as if he was presenting a treasure. He blinked proudly and raised his eyebrows while speaking in riddles,”Brother, take a guess!”
“The manuscript of a great scholar?”
“No!” “A classic essay?”
“Not really!”
Bang!
Zhang Ronghua picked up the book beside him and rolled it up. He knocked the book on his head and put it down with a straight face. “Don’t hide it. Take it out quickly.”
“Hehe!” Ding Yi smiled lewdly and lifted his clothes, taking out a wrapped package from inside.
She tidied up the coffee table and made an empty space.
He placed the package on top and opened the cloth to reveal a stack of books. There was no cover, not even a word.
His excited heart, trembling hands, and the smile on his face made it seem as if he had just come out of a trap. He pointed at them and said,”There are a total of ten books, and they are all collector’s edition. I’m not bragging, but you can’t buy them even if you have money on the market.”
He opened the first book. It was colored and there was a picture of two little people. The woman was kneeling on the ground with her head held high and her mouth wide open.
Judging from his drawing skills, the person who drew it had reached the third level of perfection. It was very realistic. Some parts were close-up very well, and the details were not bad either. It was worthy of three flavors.
Brother Wei, how was it? Isn’t it a classic?”
She looked at him with an expression that seemed to be saying, “Hurry up and praise me!”
Zhang Ronghua’s face darkened. He thought for a long time and thought of everything that could be thought of. He actually did this for himself. He said angrily,”All ten books should be about this, right?”
‘Yes, I am!” Ding Yi nodded his head as a matter of course.
“They are my lifeblood, which is you. If it were anyone else, even if they put a knife to my neck, they would not be able to make me hand them over!”
Zhang Ronghua didn’t say anything. He took a book, flipped to the first page, and started reading from beginning to end.
No learning, no right to speak!
With a serious and critical attitude, he would first assess it and find out its shortcomings before teaching it a lesson!
The person who drew these things was really cunning. The book looked very thick, with more than 20 pages, but at the back of each picture, there were many annotations explaining the steps as if they were afraid that others would not know. There were only a few pictures in total, and there was a sentence at the end: The story is not over, please look forward to it!
It took him some time to finish all ten books.
There were a total of ten moves, and the other moves were all evolved from them. For example, one kneeling forward and one kneeling backward were a complete picture.
“How much is it?” he asked after putting down the things.”
“I don’t want money! Brother, you can take it. When the new edition comes out,
I’ll send it to you as soon as possible.”
“I’m asking how much it costs! I didn’t want it!”
Ding Yi raised a finger.
“Ten taels?” Zhang Ronghua probed.”
“Guess again!” Ding Yi shook his head.
“A hundred taels?”
“Yes!”
Zhang Ronghua looked at him like he was looking at an idiot. This lousy book actually cost a hundred taels? There were only a few pictures in total. She grabbed his ear and lectured him, “Did you spend your money on something else? A hundred taels for this lousy thing?”
Ding Yi was not convinced and defended himself, “I’m the only one who can get the lowest price!” If it was someone else, it would be at least 200 taels of silver. There was even a limited edition supply. If one did not have enough status, they would not even be able to enter the door..”
