None of the gods and Buddhas could have imagined this... They schemed and plotted, causing rivers of blood to flow, but in the end, a reckless and foolish man succeeded. Some people were indignant, saying that there were no heroes in the world, so they called on a nobody to become famous. Some people were convinced that his achievements as the Heavenly Emperor were worthy of his perseverance. Wang Wen himself said that he really just wanted to have some fun at first!
