Dragon's Origin

"My cultivation seems to be progressing faster in recent years." This was what A'Qi told Wang Sheng. Surprisingly, Wang Sheng gave A'Qi twenty percent of the profits from selling the information, which was quite unexpected for her.

You have to know that although Wang Sheng didn't use an auction format this time, he charged each person 50,000 gold coins, and with nearly two hundred people present, that's about ten million gold coins. Twenty percent is two million gold coins!

Since she was a child, even the most successful assassination mission A'Qi had ever completed hadn't earned her more than 50,000 gold coins. When had she ever seen two million gold coins?

Hearing Wang Sheng's words, A'Qi was directly stunned. Two million gold coins, just given to her? She stood there dumbfounded until Wang Sheng had already left and returned to the back to cultivate, and A'Qi still hadn't recovered.

"Madam, the Marquis has plenty of gold coins, just two million gold coins!" When A'Qi was stunned, one of the two little maids following behind couldn't bear to watch any longer and spoke up to remind her.

Although the two little maids were just servants, they had only four people in their family when they followed Wang Sheng. Besides Wang Sheng and the two of them, there was only a cook left. For a long time, Wang Sheng's gold coins in Worry-Free City were directly piled up in the courtyard where they used to live. Millions of gold coins were piled up, and the two little maids initially found it novel, but after seeing gold coins every day, they didn't feel anything anymore.

This also led to A'Qi, the second wife, not being as knowledgeable about gold coins as the two little maids, and she was secretly ridiculed by them.

During the time A'Qi had lived here, although she hadn't seen many gold coins, the food, clothing, and accommodation were all worth at least a hundred gold coins. She had traveled all over the world when she was an assassin, so she naturally knew the prices of these things, especially the spirit gathering array that covered the entire courtyard, which would cost tens of millions of gold coins.

But even so, A'Qi was still happy for a long time because of the joy of owning two million gold coins for the first time. She even secretly laughed in her sleep at night, for which Wang Sheng ridiculed her as a miser for a long time.

Wang Sheng's sale of the news about the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land was very successful, but Wang Sheng concealed many things. For example, Wang Sheng didn't mention the masters who entered the Thousand Absolutes Land with him. Everyone only knew that they were all at the peak of the Legendary realm, but they didn't know who they were. In addition, there were no details about the specific process. Many people wanted to know the detailed information, but there was no way to get it.

A'Qi happily flipped through the boxes sent by the Dai family. The things inside were all valuable items, worth about ten million gold coins in terms of gold coins. However, they were basically all器具(utensils), and there weren't many that Wang Sheng urgently needed.

There were no cultivation methods, no elixirs, no equipment, but at least the value was solid, and the gift was considered very sincere. In fact, at this point, as long as the Dai family showed this attitude, what they sent was secondary.

The things were all ornamental utensils that could be placed, and the two maids put these things in the newly renovated mansion, which looked like it had a bit of heritage.

However, the leader who came from the Old Monarch Temple twitched his lips when he saw these things. Finally, he couldn't help but say to Wang Sheng, "Marquis, why don't you let the First Madam help you with these things in the future? Your taste is too practical!"

The implication was that Wang Sheng only recognized yellow and white things, or a bunch of cultivation methods and elixir recipes that others didn't value, and didn't understand the truly meaningful good things.

Wang Sheng stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and suddenly felt that the guard leader's statement was very correct. After all, he had been in this world for too short a time, and besides cultivation and survival, he hadn't really paid attention to the truly valuable things in this world. In the future, it would be more appropriate to leave the bargaining to Mei'er. He believed that her ability to be nurtured by Baoqing Jewellery Store since she was a child would definitely be able to squeeze oil out of a stone.

"That makes sense!" Wang Sheng nodded to the leader: "Okay, I'll let them talk to Mei'er in the future, and then do things after they've negotiated."

The leader nodded and didn't speak any more, but he gave Wang Sheng a thumbs up, obviously absolutely agreeing with this point.

The two of them had just made this decision when a guest came to the door, as if they were specially delivering food to Mei'er.

When the visitor reported his identity, Wang Sheng secretly laughed in his heart, the big fish had taken the bait. The visitor was from the Shi family, very polite, and didn't hide anything when he came to the door. He wanted to ask Wang Sheng if he had taken the peerless treasure map from the Shi family back then.

"No!" Wang Sheng shook his head directly, answering confidently: "I didn't take the map. It's always been in that Four Symbols Exquisite Seal Box."

Being in the exquisite seal box meant that the map was indeed destroyed. This answer was not surprising to the Shi family, because the news they received was that Wang Sheng had seen the map, had a photographic memory, and remembered the contents of the map.

For the Shi family, it didn't matter whether the map was destroyed or not, as long as they had the contents of the map, they could cooperate with the Gan family. This was also the reason why they sought help from Wang Sheng.

"Sorry, I can't open the exquisite seal box." Wang Sheng denied with a smile on his face: "Whoever told you that I can open the exquisite seal box, go find them. I can't open it."

The Shi family representative was stunned on the spot. Wang Sheng's response was different from the information he had heard. The problem was, could he force Wang Sheng to admit it? In the inner city of Worry-Free City, next to the City Lord's Mansion, take action? Are you tired of living?

Who told the Shi family that Wang Sheng could open the exquisite seal box? He certainly couldn't go find them. There was another verification channel, which was from the Pavilion Master of the Exquisite Pavilion, but if he asked the Pavilion Master of the Exquisite Pavilion, he would probably be sticking his neck out for the Pavilion Master to slaughter.

The Old Monarch Temple and the royal family in the capital both put pressure on the Exquisite Pavilion, and the various vassal states were not blind, so of course they could see it. Why did the Dai family soften so quickly? Besides being in line with the interests of the Dai family, they also knew that the Old Monarch Temple was strongly supporting Wang Sheng.

Before, the Old Monarch Temple didn't know what major event had happened, and continuously transferred a lot of young elites, and protected the Old Monarch Temple very tightly, presumably there was something important. Once the Old Monarch Temple eased up, if they targeted the Dai family, I'm afraid that all the other families besides the Dai family would be happy to help the Old Monarch Temple divide up the entire Dai family.

How could this kind of thing be allowed to happen? Marquis Daiguo decisively lowered his posture to soften to Wang Sheng, and pinned all the blame on the Grand Elder who had been killed by Wang Sheng himself, which was considered a satisfactory result.

The Shi family was also secretly involved at the time, and even if Wang Sheng was not clear, the Pavilion Master of the Exquisite Pavilion would certainly not let it go. If they asked the Pavilion Master of the Exquisite Pavilion, they would definitely be slaughtered.
