Dragon's Origin

The experts in the Divine Might Prison were truly remarkable. Blood Sabre's burning did indeed start from the inside, but the real initiator was from the outside.

The high temperature from the gunpowder and Wang Sheng's incendiary bomb directly scorched Blood Sabre's outer skin and several layers of tissue underneath. The high temperature even ignited the body's fat layer, which immediately burned upon contact with fresh air. From this perspective, it was indeed burning from the inside out.

It was already quite impressive that these experts could see this, but no matter how hard they racked their brains, they couldn't figure out why a master of Blood Sabre's legendary realm would spontaneously combust.

The World Honored One had been interrogated by the Divine Might Prison's experts countless times and was already losing patience. He kept repeating the same things, but these guys seemed to want to extract something different from it.

What the Divine Might Prison now knew was that Wang Sheng had definitely acted alone because when he returned, only Wang Sheng and Taoist Qing Ling were conscious. The servants and guards in Wang Sheng's mansion were all far away and unconscious. The World Honored One had personally dealt with some of these guards, so he was sure they couldn't have woken up in such a short time.

Even Manager Zhou and Chief Steward Li only appeared after the World Honored One arrived. It was certain that there was no one else beside Wang Sheng at the time, only him.

To say that Wang Sheng killed Blood Sabre with his cultivation was a joke. What everyone wanted to know now was the method, not anything else.

The huge explosion in the training room was very suspicious. Perhaps this explosion led to Blood Sabre's death, but how could such a powerful explosion be produced? This was another problem.

The Divine Might Prison really had experts. From the explosion in the training room to the black ash and the smell of gunpowder that the World Honored One saw when he arrived, they deduced some things.

This expert was an alchemist, but not a pure one. He was quite whimsical and often used some nonsensical things to create strange things. After hearing the World Honored One's description, he returned to his residence, took out some things, and asked the World Honored One if he had seen these things at Wang Sheng's place.

These were some fine, uneven powders, black in color, with some miscellaneous impurities. If Wang Sheng were there, he would definitely recognize them as poorly proportioned black gunpowder full of impurities. The charcoal, saltpeter, and sulfur were not made into extremely fine powders, and the purity was not high, but there was a pungent sulfur smell.

"No!" The World Honored One shook his head directly. He had already examined the ruins of the training room explosion several times and hadn't seen anything like that.

"Watch." The alchemist expert wasn't annoyed. He grabbed a handful of the impure black gunpowder and held it in his hand. Then, with the other hand, he took a fire starter, blew on it, and moved it close to the black gunpowder.

Sizzle. The black gunpowder in the alchemist expert's hand suddenly burned, making a long sizzling sound, and then everyone immediately smelled the smell of gunpowder.

"That's the smell!" The World Honored One immediately recognized the familiar smell. This smell was so unique and so memorable. He had smelled it on the ruins of the training room in the Changsheng Marquis's mansion.

The smell was right, and it could burn. But everyone still couldn't understand how Blood Sabre died. The burning speed of the black gunpowder just now wasn't fast, and the heat from the burning couldn't even hurt the alchemist expert's hand. You know, the alchemist expert was only at the seventh level, far from the legendary realm. If it couldn't even hurt him, how could it burn Blood Sabre to death?

Moreover, this was just a sizzling burn, not a violent explosion. Where did the loud noise come from? Did it require a large amount of this stuff to explode?

The alchemist expert didn't believe it. He got a large pile of black gunpowder and lit it. The result was the same. Without a sealed container, black gunpowder would only burn violently, not explode, especially this so-called black gunpowder with incorrect proportions and insufficient purity. Even if there was a lot of it, it would be the same.

But no matter what, since the smell was right, it could burn, and the burning turned the ground black and gray, it showed that the direction was right. Wang Sheng must know some unique formula that could make this stuff explode and kill a master like Blood Sabre. Without saying a word, the Divine Might Prison's higher-ups immediately asked this alchemist expert to research this aspect.

A weapon that could kill a master of the legendary realm, not to mention the Divine Might Prison, any organization would never let it go easily.

The World Honored One watched these people fussing about and felt very frustrated. This trip to kill Wang Sheng was originally a difficult matter. Li Lao of the Divine Might Prison had said before that it was best not to offend such a person if possible. At that time, Wang Sheng was just an unknown kid, and Li Lao of the Divine Might Prison could have such an evaluation. Now that Wang Sheng was barely considered a small master, wasn't it not worth offending him like this?

In fact, the Divine Might Prison did not underestimate Wang Sheng. They sent a legendary realm master, Blood Sabre, and the World Honored One to oversee. They originally thought that as long as Wang Sheng could escape Blood Sabre's attack, they would let him live, which would be considered fulfilling the helplessness of being forced to act. But who would have thought that Blood Sabre would die at Wang Sheng's hands.

Especially when Blood Sabre died, Wang Sheng stood there calmly, as if everything was as it should be. This made the World Honored One very uncomfortable.

After thinking about it, the World Honored One said hello to the person in charge of the Divine Might Prison and left on his own to go to the capital again. He wasn't going to kill Wang Sheng, but to ask him clearly.

The World Honored One had a transcendent status in the Divine Might Prison, and no one could stop him from doing what he wanted. Moreover, the higher-ups of the Divine Might Prison also thought that if the World Honored One could learn something from Wang Sheng, it would be beneficial to them, so they didn't stop him.

The Divine Might Prison didn't want to attack Wang Sheng. If they killed Wang Sheng, who would lead everyone into the core of the Thousand Absolute Land? But this time, there was a reason to act, they owed someone a big favor and had to repay it. But now, from the person in charge to the World Honored One who personally took action, they all regretted it. If they had known this result, they shouldn't have acted because of that favor, it was too much trouble.

Wang Sheng in the capital did not know that the World Honored One had come to find him. After the opening of Qianshengyuan and the smooth cooperation with the grandmasters of the Linglong Pavilion, Wang Sheng understood that it was time for him to leave again.

Without him, Qianshengyuan could slowly develop, and with Mei'er's business and the Emperor's protection, as long as Mei'er wasn't stupid enough to rebel, she could eat a lifetime of wealth.

But Wang Sheng himself had to leave. Otherwise, if he stayed with Mei'er for too long, Wang Sheng couldn't guarantee that he could resist the temptation of her innate charm. Wang Sheng already missed the eyes of the girl in his dream.
