Dragon's Origin

Chapter 764: Cooperation (Part 1)

Everyone present knew that the real obstacle between Wang Sheng and the world was Lin Xiu.

Five hundred years ago, Lin Xiu's family was destroyed by the combined forces of the surviving families, and she herself was sealed for a full five hundred years. Anyone would consider that an irreconcilable hatred. This kind of hatred cannot be resolved by just one or two people.

No one knew that Lin Xiu had never really cared about it. Even the sealing was arranged by herself. The things that the Eight Great Families were worried about were not even in Lin Xiu's eyes.

Unfortunately, even if Lin Xiu said this in front of the heads of the Eight Great Families, they would not dare to believe it. Who could believe that a master whose family was destroyed by them would coexist peacefully with them? Lin Xiu dared to say it, but they dared not believe it.

There was no solution to this matter. The only way was for one side to die out completely, leaving no future troubles.

Lu Wenhou said this to dispel Lin Xiu's hostility. The person he really wanted to cooperate with was Lin Xiu. Wang Sheng understood this, and so did Lin Xiu.

"Do you have a large number of high-level pills?" Lin Xiu suddenly asked.

"Yes!" Lu Wenhou was overjoyed and hurriedly replied.

"Bring a few for me to try." Lin Xiu's words left Lu Wenhou and Ling'er speechless. Did high-level pills need to be tasted first?

However, after being speechless, Lu Wenhou did not hesitate to nod to Ling'er. Ling'er pouted and reluctantly stepped forward, handing a jade bottle to Lin Xiu.

Lin Xiu casually opened it, poured out two pills sealed by formations, and then pointed to Wang Sheng, saying, "Give him the rest."

Ling'er curled her lips, stood up, walked to Wang Sheng, and gave the entire jade bottle to Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng took it and casually poured out one, gently blowing on it. The outer sealing formation disappeared without a trace, and a rich medicinal fragrance wafted out.

He twitched his nose a couple of times, exaggeratedly smelled the aroma, and Wang Sheng unhesitatingly put the pill into his mouth and swallowed it. At the same time, the sealing formations on the two pills in Lin Xiu's hand instantly disappeared, and Lin Xiu also smiled and swallowed the two pills.

A warm current flowed through his body. Wang Sheng felt it and knew that it was indeed a great tonic pill for nourishing the body. After thinking about it, he opened another one and fed it mouth-to-mouth to the unconscious A Qi.

The pills that Lu Wenhou took out were definitely good. Although they were great tonics, the process was gentle, and even the seriously injured A Qi could withstand it. They were definitely good things.

"Thanks!" Wang Sheng thanked Lu Wenhou and naturally put away the jade bottle. There were still two pills inside, which could allow Wang Sheng to recover 60% of his combat power within a day or two.

Seeing Wang Sheng and Lin Xiu eat his pills without hesitation, Lu Wenhou was very emotional. If it were him, he would never dare to eat any pills given by an enemy in this environment. Not to mention pills, he probably wouldn't even dare to drink a sip of water. Wang Sheng and this woman dared to, which was the difference!

"Do you have a large number of high-level formation masters?" Lin Xiu asked Lu Wenhou casually, her complexion a little rosier after taking the pills.

"Yes!" Lu Wenhou quickly replied, "There are definitely more than ten formation grandmasters in Worry-Free City."

"Do you have places with rich spiritual energy and beautiful scenery suitable for cultivation?" Lin Xiu asked again.

"Yes!" Lu Wenhou was about to laugh. Lin Xiu asking this meant that she had the intention to cooperate? At this moment, Lu Wenhou couldn't wait to tell Lin Xiu everything he had, "There are at least three such places, only I know about them, places that others don't know about at all."

"If you have all of these, cooperation is not impossible." Lin Xiu really didn't care. Except for her life, everything the Eight Great Families wanted to know, the secrets of the Thousand Desolation Land, the secrets of Lin Xiu's cultivation that they thought they knew, Lin Xiu didn't care at all and could take them out at any time. Cooperating with anyone was still cooperation.

"These things can also be provided by Li Zhen Workshop," Wang Sheng said from a distance, "Why should we cooperate with you?"

"Brother Wang, it's different." Lu Wenhou smiled and turned to Wang Sheng's side, starting to explain.

Speaking of which, Lu Wenhou had always addressed Wang Sheng as Brother Wang, from the beginning when Wang Sheng was no one to when Wang Sheng became the Ever Victorious Duke. This title made Lu Wenhou seem different from others.

"After Brother Wang left the capital, he never used the power of Li Zhen Workshop," Lu Wenhou seriously analyzed for Wang Sheng, "Even now, it's still the same. This is the smartest thing Brother Wang has done."

"Why do you say that?" Wang Sheng asked with a calm expression.

"Why does Brother Wang need to ask the obvious?" Lu Wenhou shook his head with a smile. Wang Sheng was deliberately feigning ignorance, but Lu Wenhou didn't care and continued to speak, because he saw that Lin Xiu also looked curious. These explanations were for Lin Xiu to hear.

"Brother Wang's consistent refusal to use the power of Li Zhen Workshop is the smartest approach," Lu Wenhou praised Wang Sheng's approach again, "Everyone in the world knows the relationship between Brother Wang and Mei'er. As long as Brother Wang uses the power of Li Zhen Workshop, the Eight Great Families will have the perfect excuse to divide Li Zhen Workshop, even with royal protection."

"Everyone tacitly abides by this rule," Lu Wenhou said calmly, "If Li Zhen Workshop doesn't interfere, then no one will touch Li Zhen Workshop. Once Li Zhen Workshop interferes, it will be a catastrophe."

"Of course, the vast wealth of Li Zhen Workshop is also something that all parties are very wary of," Lu Wenhou continued, "Including me, they are all very afraid. Therefore, unless necessary, no one is willing to create extra trouble at this time. Brother Wang and all parties can be considered to have reached a tacit agreement."

"Princess Mei'er?" A mysterious smile suddenly appeared on Lin Xiu's face, and she turned to Wang Sheng, "Very beautiful?"

Wang Sheng was stunned. He thought that a peerless master like Lin Xiu would not care about such things, but he didn't expect Lin Xiu to ask.

Helpless, Wang Sheng could only nod, "Very beautiful!" Mei'er was of course beautiful, but her beauty and Lin Xiu's were two different types. Wang Sheng wouldn't lie in front of Lin Xiu and say that Mei'er wasn't beautiful.

"The Ever Victorious Duke's mansion in the capital has more than just one Princess Mei'er," Ling'er, who had disliked Wang Sheng from the beginning, seemed to be deliberately adding to the fun at this time, and said to Lin Xiu, "The Ever Victorious Duke's inner mansion has more than six hundred beauties of different appearances, and only beauties. Except for the Ever Victorious Duke himself, there are no other men in the inner mansion. It is said that only a few who have entered are eunuchs."

"Living in a den of beauties?" Lin Xiu looked at Wang Sheng with a half-smile, asking with a smile.

"I guess so!" Wang Sheng nodded with a bitter smile, glanced at Ling'er, and shook his head slightly.
