Yan Guang (1–75 AD) was an important sage of Yuyao.[1] Yan studied with Emperor Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu offered Yan a high position in the court, but Yan refused, fearing he would become corrupt, and became a hermit in the mountains. As a result, he became a famous Chinese hero and got a place in the Wu Shuang Pu (無雙譜, Table of Peerless Heroes)[2] by Jin Guliang.
