Fang Zhengzhi was an expert who specialized in ancient literature in his previous life, and he had studied hard . Several of his articles had even been published in magazines .

Of course, that didn't work out .

After graduation, he was unemployed because it wasn't fun working in research inst.i.tutes .

All they did all day was translating ancient scriptures, checking doc.u.ments, back to translating, followed by checking doc.u.ments again…

It was so boring .

Most importantly, there weren't any office ladies around . The employees were either grandpas, grandmas with reading gla.s.ses, or lifeless nerds .

Fang Zhengzhi was a man with ambitions and aspirations, so he couldn't let himself be trapped by such a lifestyle . Hence, he rejected the boring work at a research inst.i.tute and resolutely decided to find another job .

Then…

That was the end .

When Fang Zhengzhi thought that he could become a boss that had a secretary to buy him coffee, with his degree in Ancient Literature Studies, he discovered, to his surprise, that he couldn't even become an insurance agent .

It was his first job-hunting experience, and he was facing a middle-aged lady who wore gla.s.ses with a black frame . The seriousness of the working environment was written all over her face .

“Ok, let's begin the interview . The first question is, what do you think insurance can bring you?” The middle-aged lady adjusted her gla.s.ses calmly .

“Eh? Shouldn't the first question be about self-introduction?” Fang Zhengzhi, who had just graduated, showed his surprise and naiveness .

“Answer the question!”

“House, car, money, woman…”

“Wrong, it's safety!” The middle-aged lady's face tightened up . Then, she stared at Fang Zhengzhi for a full 10 seconds before asking, “Have you bought insurance?”

“No…”

“There is an insurance policy here, are you willing to sign your name on it?”

“No…”

“If you yourself don't believe in insurance, do you think you can be a good insurance agent? If you don't even have the experience of getting insurance for yourself, how could you possibly know anything about insurance?”

“Auntie, aren't you just trying to sell me your insurance policy?” Fang Zhengzhi suddenly realized what was going on .

“…” The lady held the insurance policy in her hands and fell silent for 10 seconds . Then, she sighed and placed Fang Zhengzhi's resume to the side and said, “Alright, next!”

Fang Zhengzhi failed his first interview at that moment .

Of course, that didn't mean that Fang Zhengzhi was actually useless . At the very least, he was fairly proficient in the study of ancient literature .

For example, Oracle bone script, Rock carvings, Bronzeware script, so on and so forth…

He knew a little about all of them!

He even studied the Eight Mysterious Chinese Scriptures, such as Cangjie Script, Xiayu Script, Red Rock Heavenly Script, Bashu Symbols, Dongba Symbols, etc .

He was a talent of his generation after all .

Fang Zhengzhi was being honest and earnest when he said, 'I seem to know all of these words' .

However, his honest words made Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shans.h.i.+, and the rest felt like they were struck by a heavy hammer .

It was as if someone had punched them in the face .

They were dumbfounded!

“He knows… All of them!”

“Did he say that he recognizes all the words on the Stone Tablet?”

The disciples of the Human Alliance stared at each other in disbelief . If Fang Zhengzhi was still disguised as Sagely Battle G.o.d Meng Tian, they might have actually taken his words for real .

However, it was Fang Zhengzhi after all .

How could they believe him?

This was especially true for Mu Qingfeng . He felt like that was a huge duck egg stuck in his throat . He couldn't utter a single word .

'You know them all? If you freaking know everything, then what am I?' Mu Qingfeng considered himself as the most knowledgeable and experienced person .

However, someone was claiming otherwise .

Furthermore, this fellow even shamelessly declared that he knew all of these words, which even Mu Qingfeng himself had failed to decipher after months of study .

Not a d.a.m.n person would be deceived by his words!

A person could be shameless, but there must be a limit .

Just as Mu Qingfeng was about to question him, he abruptly remembered something and held his tongue .

It wasn't because he had suddenly decided to believe Fang Zhengzhi .

It was because he had recalled something in his memory .

'Wait a minute!'

'If Fang Zhengzhi was Sagely Battle G.o.d Meng Tian, then combining what Wu Yuer had said on Ling Xiao Mountain and that legend…'

'd.a.m.n it, I seemed to have fallen for his trick again!'

Mu Qingfeng instantly realized that if he was right, that legend should have originated from Fang Zhengzhi's 'golden mouth' .

Shameless . He was completely shameless .

Mu Qingfeng was furious, but he could understand Fang Zhengzhi's motive for creating this legend . It was probably to capture Yun Qingwu .

If that was the case, could there be a reason behind his purposeful claim that he seemed to recognize all the words on the Stone Tablet?

Mu Qingfeng thought that this was highly likely .

Although he wasn't sure why Fang Zhengzhi wanted to do that on purpose, he believed that he had his reasons . Mu Qingfeng didn't know what exactly were his reasons, but considering what Fang Zhengzhi had done recently, he felt that it was better not to expose his 'lies' .

'Fine, I shall find out what this brat is up to!' After all these considerations, Mu Qingfeng coughed and pointed towards the Stone Tablet, saying, “Fang Zhengzhi, since you said that you know all of these words, why don't you tell us the rough content of these three stories . ”

Mu Qingfeng's words were carefully thought out .

Despite seeming like he was doubting Fang Zhengzhi, he was actually subtly reminding him that there were three stories on the Stone Tablet so that he wouldn't mess up .

Furthermore, he even asked Fang Zhengzhi to only describe the rough content of the stories so that there wouldn't be any mismatch between their interpretations while Fang Zhengzhi was 'reading' the contents of the tablet .

After all, they had already studied the contents of the tablet for a while before Fang Zhengzhi arrived . Mu Qingfeng had already told the Human Alliance some of the words that he could recognize on the Stone Tablet .

“Yup, shameless brat, why don't you tell everyone the rough outline . ” Wu Yuer quickly realized what Mu Qingfeng meant and added on .

As for the fact that Fang Zhengzhi claimed to know all of the words…

She wasn't stupid!

In fact, Wu Yuer knew Fang Zhengzhi better than most people .

He was incredibly talented and an unmatched genius .

However, his fatal weakness was that he knew nothing about the world's history and legends .

It wasn't over the top to say that Fang Zhengzhi was completely ignorant when it came to this aspect .

In that case, how could he possibly know the words on the Stone Tablet? He had never been here before, so it was impossible for him to know these words .

“Alright, let me take a look first . ” Fang Zhengzhi nodded relaxedly and walked towards the Stone Tablet steadily .

“Take a look?!”

The disciples of Human Alliance glanced at each other as if they were struck by lightning .

'Didn't you say that you know them all?'

'Why do you need to take a look!'

While the disciples were about to express their doubts, they suddenly Fang Zhengzhi mumbling, 'Hmmm… The first paragraph is talking about… Hmmm… So that's what happened . Oh… No wonder… Woah… The handwriting here is a little illegible…”

'Can you stop pretending?!'

'Who the h.e.l.l would actually believe that you could actually understand these words?'

The disciples were a little surprised and optimistic when they heard Fang Zhengzhi talking about the first paragraph . However, as he went on, they became speechless .

'You call that knowing it all?'

'Only a fool would believe you!'

Of course, even though they knew the truth deep down, they didn't dare to voice it out . After all, they could still remember what had happened atop Heaven Zen Mountain vividly .

Fang Zhengzhi wouldn't hesitate to strike someone with lightning at the slightest disagreement .

They didn't dare to mess with him…

Most importantly, this fellow was terrifyingly powerful now . Dao Hun's dead body was the best proof of that . Mu Qingfeng and the other masters at the peak of Sage State weren't even capable of matching his strength .

He had even killed several experts at the G.o.dly State .

How could they possibly dare to bad-mouth such an existence?

Yan Xiu and Ping Yang came to Fang Zhengzhi's side at this moment . Unlike the rest, Ping Yang looked surprised while Yan Xiu was extremely calm .

“Pavilion Master Mu said that the first story was roughly about Mother Earth finding the source of the disasters and ultimately discovering that the sufferings in the world originated from the Cosmic Disaster . Hence, she started looking for a way to mend the sky . Is there any mismatch between what you read and what he had said?” Said Yan Xiu unhurriedly .

“Are you interested in this as well?” Fang Zhengzhi turned towards Yan Xiu and replied .

“Yup . ” Yan Xiu nodded and said .

“Then I will read it for you . ” Fang Zhengzhi responded readily .

Wu Yuer and the surrounding disciples became speechless instantly .

Mu Qingfeng was the most speechless one of them all . He really wanted to kill Fang Zhengzhi if he could . 'Does he really have to do this? Isn't this brat afraid that his lie would be exposed?”

'Read!'

'Read the d.a.m.n story if you could!'

At this moment, Mu Qingfeng's thoughts were interrupted by Fang Zhengzhi's voice .

“In ancient times, the four pillars supporting the sky collapsed . The sky couldn't cover the world and the earth couldn't support the world . Uncontrollable fire and floods ran rampant . The ferocious beasts ate the good, honest civilians and the vicious birds grabbed the elderly and children with their claws…”

As Fang Zhengzhi said that, all the surrounding disciples fell dead silent because they became slack-jawed .

'He is actually reading it!'

'Moreover, he's reading so fluently?!'

'This guy is a freak!'

The disciples of the Human Alliance were really struck dumb because they had been studying the first paragraph before Fang Zhengzhi came .

After the combined effort of knowledgeable 'experts' such as Mu Qingfeng, Dao Xin, Dao Hun, Wu Yuer, and Yan Qianli, they had actually managed to decipher a few words .

For example, they figured out 'four pillars', 'fire', and 'floods' . Through their deduction, these words slowly evolved into a story about a Cosmic Disaster .

Now, Fang Zhengzhi had pieced them together seamlessly and turned them into extremely common words which formed an easily understandable story .

“…” Mu Qingfeng's face turned red as a tomato . If there was a hole in front of him, he would crawl into it without any hesitation .

'Do you have to do this?'

'Do you really have to do this?'

'What kind of genius is he?'

'He could actually read all the words on the Stone Tablet . d.a.m.n it . He is actually reading them word by word . He could really do it…'

“The sky was mended and the four pillars were fixed… Ok, that's the end of the first paragraph . Is there a huge contrast with what Old Mu had said?” Fang Zhengzhi turned towards Yan Xiu again and asked for his opinion after reading the first paragraph patiently . He didn't notice the expressions on My Qingfeng and the disciples' faces .

“There are some minor differences, but Pavilion Master Mu did an okay job of translating the content . ” Yan Xiu nodded softly and replied honestly .

“…” The disciples looked towards Mu Qingfeng .

Mu Qingfeng stood there like a stunned mullet . He couldn't leave, nor could he stay . It didn't seem appropriate no matter if he chose to talk or keep quiet .

It was so d.a.m.n awkward!

“Old Mu, didn't you say that you are the best in the Holy Region when it comes to the study of ancient scriptures?” Mo Shans.h.i.+ spoke at this moment .

“Old Mo, why aren't you dead yet?” Mu Qingfeng was red with embarra.s.sment . He looked at Mo Shans.h.i.+, who was severely injured and clenched his fists so tightly that they were crackling .

“It's all thanks to you . After taking your elixirs, I won't die just yet . By the way, you haven't answered my question, have you?” Mo Shans.h.i.+ smirked and stood up slowly .

After some rest, Mo Shans.h.i.+ had cleansed some of the poison in his body . Moreover, since Mu Qingfeng had treated him, he was no longer incapable of standing up . He could move around normally to some extent now .

“If I answered your question just because you wanted me to, wouldn't that reflect poorly of my sense of pride?” Mu Qingfeng turned his head away and disregarded Mo Shans.h.i.+'s taunts . However, his face was turning redder .

That was because he truly could not understand how Fang Zhengzhi had managed to read the words on the Stone Tablet .

Mu Qingfeng opened his eyes wide and looked at the Stone Tablet again, scanning through the words that were written densely together . Even symbols and figures appeared occasionally .

“Have I fallen for an illusion?” Mu Qingfeng would rather die than believe that Fang Zhengzhi could actually understand these words, not to mention that he could understand all of them .

This was too strange!

Mu Qingfeng could still remember that Fang Zhengzhi spent the majority of his time in Heaven Dao Pavilion's Repository during the one month that he stayed in the pavilion .

“Did he learn about these words in the Repository? That can't be it . I have read all the books in the Repository…” Mu Qingfeng shook his head . He truly couldn't wrap his head around this .

At this moment, he heard Fang Zhengzhi talking again .

“Eh? There's really an allusion to the Source of G.o.d!”
