Dragon's Origin

Although the housekeeper said that he would ask the city lord for instructions, it was still a bit unpleasant. If the housekeeper had come back immediately to ask for instructions and the people from Baoqing Yu Tang hadn't shown up, then everything would have been fine. But in this world, there are no ifs.

Baoqing Yu Tang had been collecting information silently for an unknown amount of time. According to the city lord's investigation, the female owner had left Worry-Free City during this time. They thought they didn't have to worry about Baoqing Yu Tang anymore, but they were still one step ahead.

The housekeeper knew what the city lord meant by miscalculation, but he still didn't understand where the loss was. It was just a day late, Wang Sheng should still appreciate the city lord's kindness! Not to mention anything else, just the fact that Worry-Free City killed the two representatives of the Dai family to vent Wang Sheng's anger, Wang Sheng should be grateful!

Thinking like this, the housekeeper showed a puzzled look on his face, as if he didn't understand.

"They told us in advance to look for information," the city lord said without turning his head, but he seemed to have seen the expression on the housekeeper's face: "This is a great favor, we should have sent a portion of it over immediately after he announced the secret. Counterproductive! Counterproductive!"

The housekeeper instantly understood. Even if they sent the things over now, the favor that should have been unique would now be reduced to at most thirty percent, or even less. They had delayed for a whole month, and Wang Sheng had to take the initiative to ask before they agreed readily. If the housekeeper were in Wang Sheng's shoes, he would also be unhappy.

Not to mention anything else, being served delicious food and drinks every day, with no repetition, only to get such a result, no one would be happy.

"This subordinate will make arrangements immediately!" The housekeeper understood and immediately thought of a way to remedy the situation: "I will collect the things immediately and send them over overnight."

"En!" The city lord hummed, considering it an agreement to the housekeeper's handling method, his eyes still fixed on the large map on the wall, without saying another word.

The housekeeper glanced at the huge, incomplete map on the wall that included the Thousand Despair Lands, didn't linger, and quickly retreated, hurriedly finding someone to prepare things and send them to Wang Sheng's side.

In just half a day, Wang Sheng's side was busy twice. He hadn't even sorted out the things from Baoqing Yu Tang yet, and the city lord's mansion sent over almost half a room of scrolls.

With so much information, just reading it would take about two or three months. Looking at this pile of various scrolls, Wang Sheng also showed a wry smile on his face.

But this is also good, with this as a cover, he can justifiably stay in the house without going out to cultivate and search for clues about the girl in his dream. He just doesn't know if there are any records about the phoenix in here.

The female owner of Baoqing Yu Tang came to the door again the next day. This time, she wanted Wang Sheng to make the method of making refined salt, which was the condition agreed with Wang Sheng before.

Wang Sheng would not go back on his word. It was just right that after his sense of taste improved, the previously absolutely delicious dishes were no longer palatable. One of the reasons was the poor quality of the salt, so it was good for Baoqing Yu Tang to make refined salt.

In the following days, Wang Sheng spent his time reading those materials, not even caring about business. In fact, since Wang Sheng moved into the inner city, he hadn't paid much attention to his butcher shop. Although the old steward had prepared a street-facing shop for him, he hadn't really opened it for a single day.

Of course, Wang Sheng didn't care about the income from opening a shop. His income during this period was enough to抵得上 the butcher shop's income for several years or even decades. What Wang Sheng wanted was to master the body structure of the demon beasts, and now there was a more important thing, to find the girl in his dream, the whereabouts of the phoenix soul.

Although the information collected by Baoqing Yu Tang was not as much as the city lord's mansion, they basically had information on various high-level souls, and the actual owners of each soul that Wang Sheng requested also had names and surnames.

Wang Sheng looked at them one by one, very quickly. His main goal was to find the phoenix soul, and he had a strong purpose. Those that were obviously not could be ignored first, and then looked at again later.

As he flipped through the scrolls, there was no mention of the word phoenix at all. Wang Sheng was not discouraged. If it was so easy to find, wouldn't the whole world know?

After flipping through more than a hundred scrolls, there were only a dozen or so scrolls left from Baoqing Yu Tang. Wang Sheng's eyes were suddenly attracted by the name on a scroll.

The name of the scroll was "Strange and Unusual Events", which had nothing to do with high-level souls, but was included by the people of Baoqing Yu Tang. Obviously, the content inside was related to high-level souls. Wang Sheng believed in the professionalism of the people of Baoqing Yu Tang and would not make such a low-level mistake.

Opening this scroll of "Strange and Unusual Events", Wang Sheng knew at a glance that the answer he wanted might be in this scroll.

Strange and unusual events mainly describe some uncertain legends of strange souls that some people have heard but no one has seen or proven. There are powerful super nine-star souls that surpass the ninth level of change, and super souls that have more than ten acupoints when upgrading, and so on.

What interested Wang Sheng was that Wang Sheng saw a description of a soul that was related to him. The upgradable soul relies on devouring the same kind to upgrade. Although it is not specific to carp or which kind, some of the described content completely matches the nine-star soul obtained by the Dai family.

However, the author of Strange and Unusual Events may have never seen the real kind of soul, so he only described the general characteristics, but did not say too much about the specific things. For Wang Sheng, these things were better than nothing, and not of much significance.

Looking further, Wang Sheng's movement of slowly unfolding the scroll suddenly stopped. On the point of the scroll that he had just unfolded, the two words phoenix appeared prominently.

After a pause, Wang Sheng couldn't wait to unfold more, revealing more content.

Phoenix Soul, the legendary soul, type unknown, level unknown, owner, unknown. A series of unknowns made Wang Sheng's heart suddenly cool down.

Looking further, he finally saw a piece of content that was not considered unknown. It is said that hundreds of years ago, a person with a phoenix soul appeared, and has not appeared since. But the author of Strange and Unusual Events was not sure, so he only recorded this as a legend.

Continuing on, it has become a new kind of legendary soul. The record about the phoenix is just these few lines.

Wang Sheng has completely fallen into madness. What's going on, how could it be hundreds of years ago? Wang Sheng clearly remembered that he had communicated with the girl in his dream in the year before he traveled, and casually encouraged her that a sparrow would definitely be able to turn into a phoenix, but how could the record above be hundreds of years ago?

This must be a mistake!
