After the news of the ancient monster Wei Ming being killed spread, Tiancheng Tower immediately sent a true dragon king to lead an entire ceremonial team to the Nanyi Gate to announce rewards. They also read out in public the decree of the Dragon Saint Ao Ku praising Fang Yun and rewarding all the water creatures of the Nanyi Gate.
Fang Yun didn't care about praise, he only cared about the ranking on the Emperor Execution List and the Military Merit List.
Since Fang Yun seldom participated in wars before, even if he killed many emperors in one battle, he could not rank at the top of the Emperor Killing List, and could not even make it into the top thousand.
However, the military merit of retaking the South Wing Gate was extremely high, allowing Fang Yun to rise directly to ninth place from thousands of places outside the military merit list.
On the military rank list, Fang Yun still topped the list. The second place was just an ordinary tenth-rank military rank, and there was no possibility that he would surpass Fang Yun in the next few months.
As for the Wizards List, Fang Yun's ranking rose to a very high level after returning to Zhulong City from the Falling Star Sea. These days, he has not taken out any traps, so his ranking has been declining. Even so, he is still firmly in the top 100 of the Wizards List.
Ao Ku issued an order, asking Fang Yun to hold the South Wing Gate, and after the trade fair was over, he would let Fang Yun join the battle based on the situation.
So, for the next few days, Fang Yun lay on the city wall of the South Wing Gate. To outsiders, he seemed to be sleeping soundly, but in fact, he was reading books from Dragon City in the world of strange books.
The status of Beiji Tiancheng is far more important than Zhulong City. It can be said to be the first city on the surface of Longcheng Star. Everything recorded in it is extremely numerous and extremely precious.
Fang Yun first read books related to history, and many historical mysteries were gradually dispelled. Combined with the records of Fu Yue's inheritance, Fang Yun was able to piece together a lot of unknown history like a puzzle.
Among them, Fang Yun discovered some clues about the ancient dragon saint Ao Pang, and they were the initial clues.
Given that Ao Pang's information is related to his ranking on the Wizards List, and that Ao Pang's stone carvings involve a shocking secret, Fang Yun has always been paying attention to him.
Previous records about Ao Pang were fragmentary and incoherent. Even if Fang Yun read all the books in the world, he still had no idea where to start.
The books of Arctic Sky City gave him a breakthrough.
In the military merit book of Beiji Tiancheng, there were actually comments about Ao Pang when he was promoted to the Great Dragon King.
This was something Fang Yun had not expected, because most of the information about Ao Pang in Longcheng had been destroyed many years ago.
The comments in the military merit book can be summarized in twelve words when translated into the ethnic language: smart in small matters, confused in big matters, and not capable of important tasks.
After seeing this, Fang Yun was ecstatic, because this was the earliest record about Ao Pang in the history of the universe. There were no other stone carvings or carriers that recorded what happened to Ao Pang before he became the Great Demon King.
Ao Pang was eventually promoted to Great Sage and held a prominent position. After reading this comment, Fang Yun thought, such a Dragon Saint was judged to be of no great use. Was it possible that the person who wrote the comment made a mistake
So Fang Yun searched carefully, and then was stunned.
The person who wrote the comment to Ao Pang was the semi-saint city lord of Beiji Tiancheng at that time.
At that time he was a half-saint, and later, he was promoted to Dragon Emperor!
Moreover, he is also the last Dragon Emperor of the dragon clan.
Ao Zong.
Ancestral gods, ancestral emperors, saints, dragon emperors, etc. can be collectively referred to as holy ancestors, and they are all great figures of the same level.
Fang Yun went through the records again and had to admit that he had neither the ability nor the qualifications to overturn Ao Zong's conclusion. If he looked at it from a higher perspective in light of later history, compared with Ao Zong and the truly sages of the dragon clan, Ao Pang was indeed useless.
At that time, Ao Zong was only a half-saint, but he was able to accurately evaluate Ao Pang. His vision was indeed very sharp.
The second piece of news involving Ao Pang was a secret report.
The secret report described in detail some of the things Ao Pang had done.
It turned out that after Ao Pang was promoted to emperor, he was sent to an ancient monster star as a general as a subordinate emperor of Beiji Tiancheng, managing the ancient monsters on that star.
Seeing this, Fang Yun was attracted by the name of the star and stared at the name in the book.
Stars on the wild slope.
This is a very obscure name. If this name is mentioned, it would be almost impossible for the dragon clan, not to mention the ancient demon saints, to know this place.
Because this place was named by the dragon clan. At that time, Yepo Xingchen was just a random name given by the dragon clan based on the ancient demon language.
However, the name of the star was later changed.
The vast forest star.
Every ancient demon knows where this place is, and many dragons know it too.
Manglin Star is the birthplace of Cangyue, the first ancestor of the ancient demons!
Fang Yun's expression changed and he continued
After reading it, Fang Yun thought about it carefully.
"The time of this secret report is exactly the end of the Prison-Suppressing Evil Dragon period. At that time, Ao Pang was still an emperor. Currently, there is no information showing how many years he stayed on Manglin Star, but according to later records, before he was promoted to Dragon Saint, he had been practicing in one place. Although the specific place was not mentioned, it is very likely Manglin Star."
"The time of Cang Yue's birth is recorded, and this secret report also records the time. It can be confirmed that Ao Pang entered Manglin Star when Cang Yue Zudi was twelve years old."
When Fang Yun thought of this, he suddenly remembered the record about Emperor Cangyue in the Fu Yue inheritance. It said that Emperor Cangyue was just a wild giant with the lowest status in the giant clan. When he was five years old, because his father and brother participated in killing the water clan, his entire family was executed by General Dragon Emperor who ruled Manglin Star at that time. He escaped by luck.
It is clearly recorded in the Fu Yue inheritance that when Emperor Cang Yue was twelve years old, he was allowed to learn the fighting skills of high-level giants for the first time, which was also a turning point in his life.
"This secret report shows that the previous dragon king of Manglin Star and Ao Pang were originally friends, but later they became enemies due to differences in ideology. Later, the secret report said that it was Ao Pang who took the initiative to apply to go to Manglin Star to replace the previous king, and treated the ancient monsters there well, making them docile and docile in a short period of time, and the resistance against the dragons decreased significantly."
As the compiler of "History of Ancient Demons", Fang Yun was very concerned about Ao Pang, the Evil Dragon of the Prison and Emperor Cangyue. When he saw this, he had a feeling of witnessing history, so he immediately continued to search in the materials.
Soon, Fang Yun found the second secret report.
The content of the secret report was that Ao Pang's drastic reforms were warmly welcomed by the ancient monsters. He was regarded as the most outstanding emperor of the dragon clan by the ancient monsters. All the ancient monsters in Manglin Star were grateful to Ao Pang.
Then, Fang Yun saw the third secret report.
It said that Ao Pang listened to the voices of the ancient monsters and released all the ancient monsters captured by the previous manager. Not only that, he also appointed those captured ancient monsters as high-ranking officials to manage Manglin Star with him. Ao Pang even drove many water creatures back to Dragon City to let more ancient monsters manage Manglin Star.
So much so that whenever Ao Pang appeared during that period, many ancient monsters would kneel down and kowtow to him, regarding him as their savior.
It was from that time that the ancient demon began to erect statues for Ao Pang.
This is also the first time in history that an ancient demon has done this for the dragon clan.
The secret report also emphasized that most of the ancient monsters released by Ao Pang had killed water creatures and even dragon creatures, and some of the ancient monsters were originally going to be escorted to Dragon City to be executed.
