Dragon's Origin

“Can’t Duke Wang guess?” The old man didn’t answer directly but instead asked with a smile.

“The Dai family!” Wang Sheng blurted out the words without hesitation, shaking his head at the same time, “I knew it.”

“Besides our Dai family, who else would care whether Duke Wang has been here in this place, right?” The old man didn’t deny it, admitting it directly.

This place is the northernmost part of the Song family, and there is no population. However, it is also the northernmost part of the Dai family. The Song family and the Dai family are neighbors. Only they would pay attention to this place.

The relationship between Wang Sheng and the Dai family can definitely not be considered friendly. Describing it as hatred might be more accurate. The former head of the Dai family, the Great Elder, the Young Patriarch, and several elders all died at the hands of Wang Sheng. This kind of hatred is not an exaggeration to describe as irreconcilable. Would the Dai family cooperate with Wang Sheng?

This invitation for Wang Sheng to chat is just a figure of speech. The real purpose, of course, is to control Wang Sheng, deeply dig into the secrets of Wang Sheng, and get in touch with Lin Ling through Wang Sheng.

“Previously, a group of people from the Dai family were very rude to Duke Wang, so some unpleasant things happened.” The old man was very patient, seemingly not wanting to achieve his goal through force but rather through persuasion. “But please believe our Patriarch, he is only grateful for what Duke Wang has done before and will never have resentment.”

Dai Xiao grateful to Wang Sheng? A’Qi wanted to laugh when she heard this, but she couldn’t laugh right away because, upon closer inspection, it seemed that this statement made sense.

In the Dai family, under normal circumstances, Dai Xiao was only the second-ranked Young Patriarch. If nothing else happened, at least the former Patriarch could live for several more decades, and then Dai Huan would take over as the Patriarch. There would never be anything for Dai Xiao.

It was precisely because of Wang Sheng’s appearance that he first killed Dai Huan, making Dai Xiao the real Young Patriarch. Various resources were tilted towards him, and even the nine-star Yuan Soul that Dai Huan had painstakingly found was used on Dai Xiao. After a few years, the Dai family’s Patriarch, Great Elder, and others successively died at the hands of Wang Sheng, which led to Dai Xiao taking over.

From this point of view, Dai Xiao should indeed thank Wang Sheng. The Dai family must put on an attitude of irreconcilable hatred with Wang Sheng, but Dai Xiao personally would definitely not think so. Of course, the premise is that Wang Sheng now accepts Dai Xiao’s goodwill; otherwise, Wang Sheng is still the Dai family’s irreconcilable enemy.

Wang Sheng was very clear about this, so he just nodded, not answering, seeming to be pondering something.

The old man on the opposite side didn’t urge him, just waiting and watching quietly. After a while, seeing that Wang Sheng didn’t seem to have any movements, he then smiled and said, “Duke Wang doesn’t need to try to use those flying mounts. From the moment we knew that Duke Wang could drive those insects in the Thousand Absolutes Land, we have been careful that Duke Wang would drive the demonic beasts on our side. Now the nearest flying mounts are twenty miles away, Duke Wang still doesn’t need to try in vain.”

“There’s no need to visit the Dai family.” Wang Sheng seemed to know that this method wouldn’t work. The other party was prepared, so naturally, it was useless. So, he directly rejected the other party’s suggestion, “However, if there’s anything you want to know that’s not so important, maybe I can tell you.”

Hearing Wang Sheng’s refusal, the old man’s face immediately darkened. But hearing the sentence behind, the old man didn’t flare up on the spot and began to ponder. This time, it was Wang Sheng’s turn to wait.

The old man’s contemplation was justified. Other families were not clear, but the Dai family, and with a not low status, certainly knew that the royal family and those small forces were able to catch the last train and share the secrets of the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land because they got the news revealed by Wang Sheng.

Even the secrets of the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land could be revealed by Wang Sheng. The old man was sure that Wang Sheng was planning to exchange news for their freedom. After all, Wang Sheng and A’Qi were still injured, and fighting would definitely not last to the end. A’Qi, needless to say, would definitely be the first to die.

Under this circumstance, making this choice was understandable. The old man was pondering what to ask to get the answer that Wang Sheng called not so important. For example, Lin Ling’s whereabouts were definitely an important question that Wang Sheng would never answer.

Even if the old man wanted to know so badly in his heart, it was impossible to ask that question first unless he wanted to turn hostile immediately. Even if he turned hostile, he had to wait until he knew something from Wang Sheng’s mouth before doing it. Only a fool would act immediately.

Having made up his mind, the old man was about to open his mouth, but Wang Sheng preempted him, holding out three fingers, “Three questions. At most three questions, I’ll leave after answering, and you can’t stop me.”

The old man looked around. This time, he didn’t hesitate for long and nodded very readily, “Okay!” While agreeing, he waved his hand behind Wang Sheng.

The dozen or so experts who had been chasing after Wang Sheng retreated another hundred feet very neatly when they saw this. Not only that, but the experts blocking in front also retreated dozens of feet.

“We have already expressed our sincerity.” The old man waited for his people to retreat before saying to Wang Sheng, “Is Duke Wang satisfied?”

“Please!” Wang Sheng nodded, not talking too much nonsense, directly signaling the other party to ask questions.

“What are the twenty-four predecessors in the Thousand Absolutes Land guarding?” The old man blurted out the question. Although this question would not take too long to know once the seal formation was unlocked, knowing it first would allow for targeted arrangements, and taking the initiative was always advantageous.

“Wasting a question.” Wang Sheng shook his head directly, and in the old man’s puzzled gaze, he directly replied, “Those are twenty-four cultivation places, each with a room or a small valley, etc., with some kind of cultivation method carved on the walls.”

“Each carved cultivation method is actually a direction of cultivation.” Wang Sheng continued, “Well, it just happens to be the subsequent cultivation direction after entering the Legend realm. Many people should be interested.”

“However, this will soon no longer be a secret, you wasted a question.” Wang Sheng shook his head with a smile, “Believe me, the things inside will not be easily moved away. Under the attention of so many people, even if you know, you can’t do anything about it. You can only obediently wait for all parties to discuss it before you have a chance to see it.”

If someone had asked Wang Sheng before, Wang Sheng would definitely have answered that he didn’t know, but Lin Xiu had already communicated with Wang Sheng, so Wang Sheng naturally knew everything clearly.

The old man got the answer, and a look of joy was clearly revealed on his face. But hearing Wang Sheng’s later words, he couldn’t help but frown. What Wang Sheng said made sense. This kind of secret, even if they knew it in advance, would be meaningless because they couldn’t take it away under the public’s eyes. They only knew it for a period of time, that’s all.
