Dragon's Origin

Chapter 591: Submitting Heart and Soul (Part 1)

Wang Sheng didn't speak, waiting for Song Yan's continued reminder.

"This time, the Dai Kingdom will definitely regard you as a mortal enemy and won't hold back because of the secret of the Thousand Layered Land," Song Yan said quietly.

"They don't want to know the secret of the Thousand Layered Land anymore?" Wang Sheng smiled and asked Song Yan.

"With their current situation, being able to protect themselves is already pretty good, let alone coveting the secret of the Thousand Layered Land?" Song Yan sneered, "In that case, they might as well go all out. Since they have no chance, they will just kill you so that no one else has a chance."

"That makes sense!" Wang Sheng nodded. If he were in the Dai family's shoes, that would definitely be the idea, nothing surprising.

"Aren't you worried?" Song Yan watched Wang Sheng nod in agreement with her, but without a hint of worry, she couldn't help but ask.

"Why should I be worried?" Wang Sheng laughed, "Shouldn't you guys be the ones worrying?"

"What are we worried about?" Song Yan was almost amused by Wang Sheng. She was kindly reminding him to be careful, but this heartless guy didn't appreciate it.

"Aren't you worried that I'll be killed by the Dai family, and then you won't have a chance to unlock the secret of the Thousand Layered Land?" Wang Sheng laughed again.

"Uh?" Song Yan was stunned. When she thought that the Dai family might be detrimental to Wang Sheng, Song Yan was indeed a little flustered. Concern leads to confusion! But now that Wang Sheng said this, Song Yan realized that Wang Sheng really had nothing to worry about.

Originally, Song Yan's intelligence would have allowed her to think of this, but she made a mistake because she cared about Wang Sheng. Since Song Yan herself could see the Dai family's possible plans, wouldn't other families also see it? In this way, even for their own sake, all parties would definitely send out experts in secret to protect him and prevent the Dai family from succeeding!

"Your Song family must be afraid too, right?" Wang Sheng chuckled, "To show the Song family's importance, send your Song State Duke's daughter to protect me!"

Song Yan slapped Wang Sheng's shoulder on the tooth mark with a 'pa' in anger. She would never worry about this bastard again.

Suddenly free of worry, Song Yan instantly returned to being the aloof and invisible female Duke, sat up, and then kicked Wang Sheng off the bed with one foot.

"Get back!" Song Yan coldly ordered Wang Sheng, "Come and serve this Duke tomorrow morning after washing yourself clean!"

Wang Sheng got up with a smile, and regardless of his naked body, he slowly and deliberately found his clothes and put them on. Song Yan sat on the bed and watched him indifferently.

When Wang Sheng was about to leave after getting dressed, Song Yan added another sentence: "Wash yourself cleaner, and don't bring the scent of other women on you!"

Wang Sheng's body swayed, and he suddenly rushed towards Song Yan. Song Yan was shocked and was about to jump up, but was blocked by the quilt. Her pair of pink arms were immediately grabbed by Wang Sheng, and she was pressed onto the bed. Wang Sheng kissed Song Yan's cherry lips fiercely for several minutes before laughing and letting go of Song Yan, turning around and going out.

The moment the door closed, a pillow slammed into the door. Only the naked Song Yan was left in the room, staring at the door Wang Sheng walked out of with an expression that was both angry and happy, an indescribable expression.

Walking on the road with the old Taoist, Wang Sheng enjoyed the evening afterglow. At this moment, he really felt like an ordinary person returning home after a day's work.

"Old Taoist, are you hungry?" Wang Sheng asked Lingxu Old Taoist.

"By the time you remember, I would have starved to death!" The old Taoist gave Wang Sheng an annoyed retort, "The female Duke's gigolo."

"Old Taoist, don't think I can't hit you just because I can't beat you!" Wang Sheng directly gave the old Taoist the middle finger: "Eavesdropping is not a good habit!"

"Instead of thinking about this, you might as well think about how to explain to Meier when she smells the fragrance on your body later!" The old Taoist also gave Wang Sheng a middle finger, sneering back.

The capital is very safe now, especially strolling around with the old Taoist, there wasn't even a tail. Since the Dai family's palace incident spread, no one dared to easily follow the old Taoist anymore. It was common to run into him on the road, salute from afar, and then run away early.

He didn't run into many people along the way. As soon as he returned to the mansion, Wang Sheng was faced with Meier's cold face, and then Meier immediately changed to a smiling expression for the old Taoist, enthusiastically accompanying the old Taoist to prepare dinner for him.

Wang Sheng smiled sheepishly, and amidst Qiangwei's snickers next to him, he was taken by Qiangwei to eat and then take a bath.

"Really, all day long, not even taking care of a meal!" Qiangwei looked at Wang Sheng's eating habits, and seemed to guess that Wang Sheng hadn't eaten, she couldn't help but complain.

Wang Sheng didn't know what to say. This fiancee of Meier seemed to know everything about himself and Song Yan, and even the concubine Qiangwei was the same. Fortunately, there was no trouble, otherwise how would this day go on?

There were still a few days before the Dharma Assembly, and all parties were not in a hurry to rush over, lest they be turned away. Anyway, it was only less than a day's journey, so it would be fine to go one day in advance.

Wang Sheng's days these past two days were quite enviable. At night, Qiangwei, who wholeheartedly served Wang Sheng, would serve Wang Sheng extremely thoughtfully, so that Wang Sheng didn't even have to lift a finger. During the day, Wang Sheng didn't have to lift a finger at Song Yan's place either, just let Song Yan vent.

Of course, no one except the old Taoist, Meier and Qiangwei knew about going to Song Yan's place. No one knew that the courtyard was where Song Yan lived, and no one dared to follow, and no one could follow, which was quite convenient.

Taking advantage of the fact that Song Yan could live here for a few days, Wang Sheng would also allow this strong woman to have a little more comfort. Unfortunately, he could not be with her after all. Wang Sheng understood this, and Song Yan also understood this, but no one said anything, a startling tacit understanding.

Finally, the day of the Old Monarch Temple Dharma Assembly arrived. The day before, important figures from all parties successively set off from the capital and went straight to the Old Monarch Temple in the suburbs.

This time, the Old Monarch Temple did not refuse anyone, but prepared guest rooms for all the guests. Everyone stayed down in an orderly manner, and no one dared to do anything out of line.

Wang Sheng, Meier, and Qiangwei were of course also staying in the guest rooms, but this guest room was used to entertain internal guests. It was inside the Old Monarch Temple itself, unlike the representatives of those vassal states, who were all staying outside the Old Monarch Temple. In this regard, the Old Monarch Temple still clearly distinguished between their own people and outsiders.

Song Yan also arrived, but did not meet Meier and Qiangwei. Important figures from all the major vassal states were present, and even the new ruler of the Dai Kingdom, Dai Xiao, rushed over. Wang Sheng had not yet met him, but it was said that Dai Xiao's attitude was very humble, without the arrogance of that scoundrel Dai Huan back then.

Everyone was looking forward to, waiting for the Old Monarch Temple to express their attitude, whether the Taoist sect would also join the grand stage of vying for hegemony in the world.

Amid everyone's expectations, the Old Monarch Temple's Dharma Assembly finally began early the next morning.
