Dragon's Origin

Chapter 359: Waiting Here (Part 1)

The two leaders from the Gan and Shi families were utterly baffled by Wang Sheng's actions. Even if Wang Sheng had given them a chance to live and continue excavating the peerless treasure.

They couldn't understand it at all! Why would Wang Sheng let go of such a great opportunity, a chance to monopolize the peerless treasure? If it were them, they would definitely kill everyone to keep it a secret!

In fact, wasn't that Shi family expert who jumped out earlier harboring the same intention? He just planned to exploit Wang Sheng's value first, and then kill him after the peerless treasure was unearthed. Everyone who’s smart could see that, right?

But Wang Sheng just let them go so easily. In Wang Sheng's words, he was a man of his word, and combined with Wang Sheng's previous statement about despising those who were faithless, the two families felt ashamed. A junior in the fifth or sixth level had such a broad mind, while they, the great experts, were acting like petty people.

Wang Sheng sat on the white bear's back, but he had other thoughts in his mind.

Would there be good things in the peerless treasure? Wang Sheng firmly believed there would be. Putting everything else aside, this place alone guaranteed that nothing ordinary could come out of it.

Did Wang Sheng want it? Yes! Especially since the Shi and Gan families were still trying to scheme against him, Wang Sheng would definitely not let go of the peerless treasure.

However, even if Wang Sheng wanted it, now was not the best time. This was the core area of ​​the Thousand Absolutes Ground, and the peerless treasure was probably buried deep under the thick ice and snow. The ice and snow alone were dozens of feet deep, and if there was a treasure cave underneath, who knew how deep it would go.

Even if Wang Sheng killed all these experts from the two families, what then? Would Wang Sheng dig it out by himself? Don't think that he had already found the location marked on the peerless treasure map. That small circle on the map, in reality, represented at least a few hundred feet in radius.

To ask Wang Sheng to dig through dozens of feet of ice and snow in an area of ​​several hundred feet to find the peerless treasure? That wasn't giving Wang Sheng a chance to get rich; that was selling Wang Sheng to a black coal mine.

Moreover, the peerless treasure couldn't possibly be taken out by one person. With so many peak Legendary Realm laborers available, why kill them? How stupid would Wang Sheng have to be to do that?

Even if the nine of them could find the peerless treasure in a short time, what then? Could they bring it out?

It was true that the two families had left clear and obvious markers along the way, but the gale here was so strong that no one knew how long those markers would last. Whether they could find their way back was another matter.

Taking a step back, even if there were two experts who could read the map and accurately mark the route, could they deal with the demon beasts along the way? It wasn't that Wang Sheng looked down on them, but they couldn't get out, and the people waiting outside couldn't get in.

So, for this reason, Wang Sheng boldly took the two people from the Shi and Gan families away from here, allowing them to stay here and contribute their remaining value.

Ahead was the line where Wang Sheng had heard the girl in his dream speak again. Wang Sheng suddenly had a premonition that he could only control this huge white bear within this area. Once he left this circle, the white bear would definitely slap him to death first.

There was still a long distance to go, so Wang Sheng had the white bear stop. He easily slid down along the white bear's forearm and stepped into the snow again.

"Go back!" Wang Sheng patted the white bear. The white bear roared at Wang Sheng, turned around, and left Wang Sheng, not even glancing at the two small ants following behind, and went back on its own.

The two experts who wanted to follow Wang Sheng were dumbfounded. Why give up such a great mount and insist on walking? What kind of habit was this?

"Stop looking." Wang Sheng beckoned to the two, taking the lead and walking forward: "Do you think controlling such a big demon beast doesn't come at a price?"

Hearing this, the two suddenly felt as if they had been enlightened. It turned out that everything before was still Wang Sheng bluffing everyone, but the two families were really fooled by Wang Sheng. Not only did the Shi family leader take the initiative to kill the Shi family expert who provoked him, but he was also ridiculed by Wang Sheng before letting Wang Sheng leave.

Ten peak Legendary Realm experts! How many resources had the two families used over the years to cultivate these ten experts? For the sake of the peerless treasure, they made a desperate gamble and sent them all to the core of the Thousand Absolutes Ground. Before anything even happened, one was killed just because they had thoughts they shouldn't have had about Wang Sheng. Thinking about it, that Shi family expert was really wronged!

"What, want to try again?" Wang Sheng said to the two without turning his head: "We are now about thirty miles away from them. If you are confident that you can survive and reunite with them, you can turn around and go back. Of course, you can also try attacking me and see if you can force me to go back."

How could the two have such confidence? Looking at Wang Sheng's back as he walked ahead, as if he wasn't guarding against them at all, the two cursed him in their hearts, but they didn't dare to show it on their faces.

Playing the fool? Controlling a giant bear does require a price, but wasn't there a slender fox just now? Where did that fox go? Do you really think we are brainless fools?

Since it had already come to this, there was no need to play the fool anymore. Just obediently follow Wang Sheng away according to the previous agreement! At least the things that happened inside had to be known to the people in the family, especially the fact that Wang Sheng could control a giant white bear. This was a new situation, and the family must consider this when making decisions in the future.

"What kind of road are we taking?" After walking for more than two days, the Gan family member couldn't understand it anymore. Wang Sheng was not taking them back the way they came. It wasn't that they could clearly identify the path, but none of the markers they had left before had appeared.

"Shortcut," Wang Sheng replied concisely. Seeing that the two didn't quite understand, and not wanting them to speculate along the way, he simply explained, "The road we took before was to verify the locations of those formations, so we took some detours."

The two nodded, understanding this. In fact, if they hadn't marked those formations along the way, they could have saved half the time.

"That road started from the location of the four familiar demon beast experts." Wang Sheng sighed: "But now that we are going back, we don't need to verify anything. We just need to take the most direct route closest to the edge."

As he spoke, Wang Sheng drew two concentric circles on the snow, representing the core area and the Thousand Absolutes Ground, and drew a route. The two immediately understood what Wang Sheng meant by this shortcut.
