Dragon's Origin

Chapter 349: A Qi's Past (Part 1)

Wang Sheng's assassination of the Dai family's Grand Elder this time startled all the vassal states.

Previously, everyone thought Wang Sheng was a nobody, wondering what he could do alone. It wasn't until Wang Sheng announced the ban on the Dai family's entry into the Thousand Absolutes Land that people realized even a small figure could be key to controlling certain important matters.

But when news came that Wang Sheng had shot and killed the Dai family's Grand Elder, who was protected by several experts, in broad daylight from miles away, many began to worry.

The Dai family's Grand Elder's cultivation wasn't high, but it certainly wasn't low. The mid-stage of the eighth realm was quite acceptable for a high-ranking, well-off person, showing he wasn't slacking in his cultivation. But with such cultivation, plus the protection of many experts, he was killed with one strike. What would happen if the Dai family's Grand Elder was replaced by them?

Wang Sheng could threaten almost everyone's life, and this feeling was really uncomfortable. The Dai family was truly unlucky, constantly running into Wang Sheng's crosshairs. From Dai Huan to Fourth Master Dai to Dai Wuji, and now the Grand Elder, their status and cultivation were getting higher and stronger. Why was Wang Sheng fixated on the Dai family? Would it be the Dai family's patriarch next?

Now, everyone recalled that when Wang Sheng sold the method to upgrade the Yuan Soul in Worry-Free City, Wang Sheng had an agreement with everyone to let bygones be bygones. Wang Sheng would not pursue the past attempts to assassinate him, and everyone would not attack Wang Sheng again.

After that, Wang Sheng indeed did not actively target any family, but then there were exceptions. The Dai family sent assassins to attack Wang Sheng, and Wang Sheng killed Dai Wuji in return. Song Hongde attacked Wang Sheng after leaving the Thousand Absolutes Land, and Song Hongde is still bedridden, who knows if it has anything to do with Wang Sheng.

Then there was this time. Dozens of members of the Dai family took action, leaving more than a dozen dead at the scene. Afterwards, all the Dai family disciples in the Thousand Absolutes Land camp were wiped out. Not long after, even the Dai family's Grand Elder, who was in charge at the time, could not escape Wang Sheng's assassination.

From these few incidents, Wang Sheng can be considered a very principled person. He promised not to pursue the past, so he would not pursue the past. But if anyone continues to provoke him, he will immediately become a hedgehog covered in thorns, and he will not rest until the attacking family is covered in wounds. As for the people who took action, they may be able to escape with their lives, but the person in charge, just look at the ending of the Dai family's Grand Elder to know.

After realizing this, all the families, especially those who had not done anything to Wang Sheng before, were ecstatic. This was definitely the best time to win over Wang Sheng. Even if they couldn't win him over, they could at least become friends instead of enemies.

Everyone was guessing where Wang Sheng would appear, but Wang Sheng had already entered Worry-Free City without anyone noticing.

Returning to his new mansion, Wang Sheng discovered that it had changed again. It had only been a few months since he left, but this large courtyard near the Worry-Free City Lord's mansion was completely different from before.

Not only had the structure of the entire courtyard and the luxury of the houses changed, but there were also many more people. Fortunately, Wang Sheng knew all the new people. They were all excellent young disciples sent by the Old Monarch Pavilion to experience the mortal world. There were not many, only ten, but they were all very smart and discerning.

"Lord!" Seeing Wang Sheng, everyone saluted in unison. Outside, these Old Monarch Pavilion disciples only called Wang Sheng Lord, not Elder. Several people quickly led Wang Sheng into the mansion. Wang Sheng was the master, so there was no need to stand on the street to talk.

"Why are you here?" Wang Sheng was very surprised. He didn't send them to Worry-Free City, he only asked them to train in the capital. Why did they appear in Worry-Free City?

"The Madam sent us to take care of the Lord's home." The young guard leading the team smiled and respectfully replied to Wang Sheng: "Said to protect the Lord's property, and…"

Speaking of this, the guard leader hesitated obviously. Wang Sheng heard it of course, and asked curiously: "And what?"

"And your concubine, Lord." The leader quickly said the answer.

"Where did I get a concubine?" Wang Sheng's eyes widened and asked in surprise.

Not to mention a concubine, Wang Sheng didn't even have a wife. The Madam that the leader was referring to, Wang Sheng knew was Mei'er, but nothing had happened between him and Mei'er so far. It was just that people in the capital seemed to have recognized Mei'er as Wang Sheng's wife, and Wang Sheng had not refuted it, otherwise Mei'er would not have been able to live in the Marquis's mansion long ago.

He hadn't even settled one Mei'er, where did a concubine come from?

Suddenly, Wang Sheng realized something. There seemed to be another woman in Worry-Free City who claimed to be his, the long-legged assassin A Qi?

Wang Sheng was about to explain something when the leader suddenly said to Wang Sheng: "Lord, the Second Madam has arrived, this subordinate will take my leave!" He saluted and left directly before Wang Sheng could react.

Turning his head, Wang Sheng saw the assassin A Qi in another outfit. Behind A Qi were the two little maids who were originally given to Wang Sheng by Mei'er when she was still at Baoqing Yu Tang.

A Qi used to always wear tight black clothes, looking travel-worn. The only exception was when Wang Sheng recognized her buying Wang Sheng's meat. Because of Wang Sheng's flirtatious words at that time, everyone in Worry-Free City thought Wang Sheng liked long-legged beauties.

Now, A Qi had changed into a relatively pretty outfit. It was still the same neat and tidy outfit, but the colors were much more colorful, making the whole person look very energetic. Perhaps because she didn't have to risk her life to make a living, the skin on her face looked more delicate than before.

"Lord, you're back!" A Qi curtsied to Wang Sheng, but wearing a fitted suit was not as good-looking as wearing a skirt to perform this salute. Moreover, A Qi didn't seem to be very used to it, and looked very awkward.

A Qi saluted, and the two little maids followed suit. Looking at this posture, they regarded A Qi as the hostess.

Looking at A Qi, Wang Sheng couldn't help but have a headache. It was true that A Qi had taken refuge in him, and it was also true that she claimed to be his woman to the outside world, but this was clearly an expedient measure at the time. How could everyone take it seriously?

A Mei'er, the first madam, in the capital, and an A Qi, the second madam, here? Wang Sheng felt wronged and wanted to cry. He had only had intimate contact with Song Yan, but Song Yan was not on the list of madams. He had not had anything happen with Mei'er and A Qi, but they were actually the first and second madams in the eyes of outsiders. What was going on?

But thinking about it, A Qi was in that state at the time, and Wang Sheng took a great risk when he asked her to notify the Dai family. It was not appropriate to drive her away now, so Wang Sheng could only awkwardly accept this situation.
