Chapter 89 The Wisdom of the Ancients

After quickly treating Tyrone's injuries, Danheng parted ways with him.

Tyrone might be a guy who loves and hates intensely, but Dan Heng doesn't like associating with people like that.

It's like being taught a lesson by Chrysanthemum Douluo in the street; who knows what kind of trouble Tailong might cause.

The second day I came to work at the library, there were many more students borrowing books than the day before.

Most of them were female students. They would casually pick up a book and peek at Dan Heng from behind the bookshelf.

"..."

Danheng could hear them whispering.

He was too embarrassed to listen to any of the suggestive or offensive language.

He ignored the female students and focused on reading the ancient book on flowers and plants that Chrysanthemum Douluo had given him.

The book was filled with descriptions of rare and exotic plants. He read ten pages, but eight of them were completely unfamiliar to him.

But the flowers and plants on it are definitely real.

He immediately realized: This ancient book is definitely a treasure!

Chrysanthemum Douluo ostensibly wanted to test him, but in reality, he was giving him a great gift!

"Um... Mr. Danheng, could you help me find this book?"

Two young and beautiful female students approached the service counter and said with charming smiles.

They handed Danheng a piece of paper.

Dan Heng took it and saw that it contained the identity information of two women, who also expressed their hope to get to know each other.

He immediately frowned and looked up at them.

The two female students chuckled, their gazes towards Dan Heng incredibly alluring.

"I have a wife. And please don't bother me with anything that's not within my job responsibilities." Dan Heng's attitude was very proper, and he had no intention of wasting time with these girls.

The two female students were considered quite beautiful among girls, with willow-leaf eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, rosy cheeks, and red lips; they were no strangers to suitors.

Now they take the initiative to chat with Danheng, but are directly rejected.

They immediately felt embarrassed and gave a soft snort.

"Huh? You don't want to get to know us? Never mind then. Actually, we don't really want to get to know you either. LOL, you're such a pretentious guy. We have plenty of suitors; you're pretty average..."

Another girl snatched the note from Danheng's hand.

They left in a huff.

Seeing what happened to them, the other girls immediately stopped trying to strike up a conversation.

Danheng was able to relax more now and quickly memorized all the exotic flowers and plants.

Some of these plants possess terrifying effects, such as bringing the dead back to life and healing flesh from bones.

But those were deliberately crossed out by Chrysanthemum Douluo.

Presumably, Chrysanthemum Douluo didn't want others to discover the rare flowers and herbs and then destroy them because of their effects.

Danheng put down the ancient books on flowers and plants, and then found a few theoretical books.

Speaking of which, Dan Heng discovered that the Soul Master world is generally quite restless.

Because cultivating soul power directly increases one's strength, they don't place much importance on the theory behind it.

Only a very small number of people, perhaps because they will never reach a higher level in this lifetime, or because they dislike fighting, or because they want to record what they have learned, will write down their knowledge and pass it down.

However, most of the people who read these books are neither Soul Masters nor students.

They believe that instead of spending time reading books, they should meditate and practice more.

This is actually a misconception.

Reading theoretical books may not increase soul power, but if you find the right direction, it can greatly shorten the training time.

Dan Heng discovered that many theoretical books were not valued by readers because the authors' soul power was not high enough; some readers simply did not read them or scoffed at them.

What Danheng didn't know was that a very famous person had also discovered this problem before him.

That's... Yu Xiaogang!

For a low-level Soul Master to make such a name for himself, Bibi Dong of the Spirit Hall was one factor, but his extensive reading was another important factor.

Many people write books; they are talented, but they lack the means to disseminate their knowledge.

Therefore, this library contains many hidden gems.

Unfortunately, neither the small town nor Blue Tyrant Academy had anyone with the discerning eye to recognize talent; they spent their time on other things.

Dan Heng declined to comment on the matter and had no intention of getting involved.

Of course, if someone really wants his advice, he's not hesitant to suggest suitable books.

"Mr. Danheng, I spent the whole night reading the book you recommended yesterday, and I found that it truly answered my questions. Thank you!"

Around noon, a figure approached the service counter and spoke softly.

This time, it wasn't someone trying to chat her up, but rather Jiangzhu.

Danheng actually had a good impression of this girl; at least she was genuinely reading instead of deliberately trying to talk nonsense to him.

Jiangzhu also brought two of her friends with her.

"Mr. Danheng, could you recommend a couple of books for them as well?"

Jiangzhu then introduced the martial spirits and soul power of the other two girls, as well as their current predicaments.

The two girls looked at Danheng with curiosity, paying little attention to his suggestion and focusing instead on admiring his face.

Dan Heng hummed in agreement, thought for a moment, and then spoke:

"The Purple Zone Ten-Year Series... 'On the Cultivation of Butterfly-Type Soul Masters at the Great Soul Master Realm,' and the Black Zone One-Hundred-Year Series..."

Both of these books were read by Danheng and have been of great benefit to the two girls' current cultivation.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Danheng!"

The two girls bowed to Danheng in gratitude, then turned and left together, laughing.

As he left, he deliberately patted Jiangzhu on the shoulder.

Jiangzhu's face flushed instantly. She lowered her eyes, not daring to look at Danheng, and whispered, "Mr. Danheng... yesterday, that guy Tailong came to cause you trouble, right?"

"Um."

"Actually, I have absolutely nothing to do with him, don't listen to his nonsense. He's just a hoodlum who always does inexplicable things... Next time he comes, I'll go and talk to him about it!"

Dan Heng shook his head and explained, "It's alright. I've already made things clear with him. There's nothing between us, and besides, I have a wife. He'll understand."

"Huh? Ah..."

Jiangzhu stared blankly at Danheng.

Her eyes instantly welled up with tears. She never expected that Dan Heng, such a young and handsome man, would already have a wife.

Her fantasies shattered like bubbles at that moment.

"That's...that's good...I was really scared, really scared that Talon would bully you..."

"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. Goodbye, Mr. Danheng..."

As Jiangzhu spoke, she turned and quickly left.

As I reached the door, my two companions caught up with me, each carrying a book.

They were all surprised to see Jiangzhu crying.

"What's wrong, Jiangzhu?"

Jiangzhu choked back tears and said, "It's nothing, I just got some sand in my eye..."

The two girls exchanged a glance. Where did the sand in the library come from?

They couldn't help but look at Danheng, thinking that the problem must have occurred there.

Could it be that even Jiangzhu was rejected?

"Hmph! That scoundrel, I'm not reading the books he recommended!"

Jiangzhu quickly wiped away her tears and said earnestly, "No, the book that Mr. Danheng recommended is very useful to you! You must finish reading it!"
