Geniuses were people that had existed in all eras . They raise the quality of cultivators and becomes the target of adoration and jealousy . w.a.n.g Ling had seen a lot of geniuses before, he had killed them, offended them, and even dealt with them .

He had seen them for so many times that he had gotten tired of trashes referring to themselves as geniuses . Amongst the hundreds of so-called geniuses he had met, there were only five in the previous era he had admitted to being geniuses .

Those five all became top-notched experts who contended with him for the spot of the strongest celestial . It was easy to see that w.a.n.g Ling had a pair of good eyes for talented people .

In this era, w.a.n.g Ling had already acknowledged two people . Only two! In the countless humans and other races he had met, he had only admitted two geniuses met his standards .

The first would be w.a.n.g Hong . A genius in the way of the spear, a true monstrous genius who had already reached [Concealment] or [Concealed Intent] state in the way of the spear .

Even if you put w.a.n.g Hong in the previous era where the mastery of weapon was more prevalent . w.a.n.g Hong would still be one of, if not the very best in the whole continent in terms of talent .

w.a.n.g Ling reckoned that if w.a.n.g Hong continues to grow . Before he grows to become a True Saint, he would already reach [One with the Spear] . By the time he reaches the Celestial Phase, w.a.n.g Hong should achieve [Spear Soul] as for what is beyond that, w.a.n.g Ling was no longer sure .

This high evaluation of w.a.n.g Ling towards w.a.n.g Hong had no biased . It was simply the truth . And if any from the previous era was to hear that w.a.n.g Ling had praised someone, they would immediately try and coaxed that person into joining their respective forces .

The second person w.a.n.g Ling considers a genius was none other than the Young Miss of Yan Clan . Yan Renhuo"s talent in the path of Alchemy was terrifying . At such an early age, she was already capable of purifying thirty-two spirit plants at the same time without making a mistake .

She also managed to extract the essences of spirit plants with such precision that nothing became waste . Everything Yan Renhuo touched became an important ingredient .

Her concentration was also beyond what w.a.n.g Ling thought . If she can bring that concentration over to her cultivation, just what heights would she reach? 

The Nirvana Pill she had concocted garnered w.a.n.g Ling"s interest towards her . So much so that his thoughts was running simulations on how he should coax her into coming to his side .

[Should I accept her offer to become a Dao companion? She"s beautiful and she"s strong . She"s someone from a good background… but . ] w.a.n.g Ling was hesitant to accept her offer to become her Dao companion .

In the end, w.a.n.g Ling threw the idea on the back of his head . Now, he was becoming more and more savage as he began to watch Yan Renhuo concoct more of the lost pill recipes .

His thoughts was now circling in the idea of either getting her to side with him or killing him if she doesn"t . Having a genius as your enemy was something w.a.n.g Ling didn"t want . The previous incidents was still etched in his mind .

[Ugh, this is hard . I"ll just take things slowly . But the pill recipes should be enough to build a strong bridge with her and me . ] w.a.n.g Ling sighed in resignation . Everything takes time, but the limits of his time and patience was slowly creeping up because by the time w.a.n.g Ling reaches Saint Phase… he will bring back his old ways .

Chaos was about to fall upon the people of the Celestial Spirit Realm . Blood will once again flow as his time to rise was about to come .

=====

Night befell onto the w.a.n.g Family Main House and Yan Renhuo finally completed the final pill she had been trying to concoct .

"Do you think those pills you have concocted will be able to change the realm? So, do you think it"s going to be a good thing for your Clan to consider a partners.h.i.+p with my w.a.n.g Family?" w.a.n.g Ling asked in leisure .

Yan Renhuo looked at him from the corner of her eyes and smiled helplessly, "What if I reject you? Do you think I can"t recreate the process of the pill creation once I get back home and then sell it to the world?"

"Try it then, I will then spread the recipe and announce what you did . Do you want your Clan"s reputation reaching rock bottom because of your greed?"

"Hahaha, you have gained my interest more and more Brother w.a.n.g Ling . I shall accept your proposal, I will send them a letter and have them send an Elder over . " Yan Renhuo said .

w.a.n.g Ling reaches his right hand forward and Yan Renhuo did the same . They shook one another"s hands and a partners.h.i.+p was formed by the Young Master and Young Miss of the two hegemons that rule over the Frost Domain .

After that little pleasantry, w.a.n.g Ling invited Yan Renhuo for dinner and Yan Renhuo readily accepted his generous offer .

Getting out of the Alchemy Pavilion, w.a.n.g Ling ordered the maids to prepare a meal for him and Yan Renhuo to have . He had also asked them to prepare lodgings for Yan Renhuo .

She would be spending the night here for the time being .

Over dinner, w.a.n.g Ling and Yan Renhuo conversed with one another . Their topic ranged from pill concoction to cultivation . But as the two spoke, Yan Renhuo asked when w.a.n.g Ling would leave for the ThunderG.o.d Academy .

"Soon, but my partner is still in seclusion so I am waiting for her to come out . "

Upon hearing the word "partner", Yan Renhuo"s ears twitched as she became interested, "Who is this partner of yours Brother w.a.n.g Ling, is he any good?"

"Yes, she"s someone I can leave my back to . But she"s a greedy little fox that tries to improve faster than anyone else . " w.a.n.g Ling commented .

"You should consider demeaning the name of the one who you trust your back into, correct?" From outside the room, a melodious voice was heard .

A little white fox walked into the room where w.a.n.g Ling and Yan Renhuo was having dinner . The white fox was beautiful and Yan Renhuo was extremely attracted to it especially to her fluffy and huggable white tail .

"So you"re already out?" w.a.n.g Ling noticed her strength was already at the peak of the early-level-4 nascent soul stage .

Bai Xue just nodded her head and went up the table . She brought out some wine and pa.s.sed them to w.a.n.g Ling who pa.s.sed her some meat and asked a maid to bring in more food .

Yan Renhuo was also offered wine and she gladly accepted . The three began to eat as if nothing was wrong . Yan Renhuo did not question Bai Xue"s existence and her questions were already answered as soon as the little white fox entered .

w.a.n.g Ling always had Bai Xue with him everywhere he went . It would be impossible for Yan Renhuo to not know of Bai Xue"s existence .

The three of them finished eating and instead of parting ways . w.a.n.g Ling and Yan Renhuo walked around the Main House some more and had a good conversation . Bai Xue went to sleep on w.a.n.g Ling"s shoulders .

Curiosity got over Yan Renhuo and asked why Bai Xue always slept on top of w.a.n.g Ling"s shoulders . w.a.n.g Ling answered with, "She"s someone who likes sleeping and I like the softness of her fur . It"s a symbiotic relations.h.i.+p . "

w.a.n.g Ling laughed . After talking for a while, w.a.n.g Ling escorted Yan Renhuo to a guest house and he went back to his courtyard .

w.a.n.g Ling saw Qiyu was standing tall in front of his courtyard . He got challenged to a duel and w.a.n.g Ling beat him up before entering his courtyard to sleep .

Alone the way, he noticed changes in his eyesight . From the duel he just had with Qiyu, it seems like his eyesight was getting ahead of what his body could react to . w.a.n.g Ling had to improve his body further .

That night, w.a.n.g Ling slept for the first time in a while . But as he was sleeping, words he could not comprehend reverberated inside his head .

"Qu Mu To Puve Vi!" Words like these were reverberating inside his head .

If that was all, w.a.n.g Ling would have been fine but as midnight fell . w.a.n.g Ling"s dreams changed and his surroundings became blood red .

Mangled corpse was everywhere and in the middle of the gore-filled mountain peak, a teen stood petrified as the blood of tears flowed out of his eyes .

The teen turned his head over and looked at w.a.n.g Ling who was watching from the side .

The teen cried more as he uttered, "You are weak!"

w.a.n.g Ling woke up and beads of sweat was forming all over his body . He held his forehead with his right hand as he mumbled as he stared at his palms, "I need to get stronger . "
