Dragon's Origin

Song Yan’s incomparably stubborn and resolute gaze made Wang Sheng feel a pang of pity. Faced with such a look from Song Yan, Wang Sheng actually didn't dare to meet her eyes and slightly shifted his gaze, letting out another long sigh.

"Answer me!" Song Yan's tone already carried a hint of trembling, and along with it, her delicate body trembled.

"No!" Wang Sheng sighed again, giving his answer.

Everyone was watching, and at this moment, everyone believed a thousand times over that Wang Sheng and Song Yan were definitely having an affair. Otherwise, such a melodramatic scene wouldn't be unfolding before their eyes.

Wang Sheng's words softened Song Yan's gaze somewhat. For a moment, her emotions surged as she thought about the days she had spent with Wang Sheng, and she couldn't say another word.

"Then how do you plan to leave with her?" Song Yan couldn't speak, but that didn't mean others wouldn't. The Tang family's manager, who always seemed so amiable, asked very kindly.

Yes, his tone was very kind, just like a kind elder in the family offering warmth and concern, making people feel very comfortable. But those who really understood the Tang family and this expert would know that when he was very kind, it was probably also the most dangerous time.

"I can exchange it for a piece of information that is very important to you," Wang Sheng said calmly to everyone, as if he had been prepared for this.

"How important is it?" The Tang family's amiable manager still asked kindly.

"So important that if your family head and the Great Elder knew, they would rush over as quickly as possible." Wang Sheng smiled and turned his gaze towards Song Yan. Seeing his gaze, Song Yan turned her head away in annoyance.

"Rush over and kneel down to kowtow." Wang Sheng also felt a little guilty and turned back to add, "Of course, it's also possible that your families will start fighting each other."

At first, when he said the family head and Great Elder would rush over as quickly as possible, everyone barely believed it. After all, many of the things Wang Sheng had done before had already been discussed by the family heads, Great Elders, and the entire council of elders as quickly as possible after receiving the news. Adding one more thing that would make them rush over quickly wasn't too outrageous.

But Wang Sheng actually said that they would rush over and kneel down to kowtow? And that the families would fight each other? On what basis? Was this kind of lie trying to deceive them a bit too childish?

"Why should we believe you?" The Tang family's amiable and kind manager continued to press.

"I'll use the information to exchange for me and her leaving. This is a transaction, and it's also a business deal." Wang Sheng smiled slightly, saying with incomparable self-confidence, "In terms of business credibility, not that I'm looking down on you all, but all of you combined aren't as effective as a single word from me. You can go outside and ask any businessman to see if this is the result."

Everyone was speechless. In fact, their understanding of Wang Sheng was already deep enough, and of course, they knew what Wang Sheng's status was in the business world. To put it bluntly, Wang Sheng could use the hundreds of billions of gold coins from the Li Zhen Workshop at will, without having to worry about the purpose or destination.

But what about them? Did the eight great families combined have even half as much cash in gold coins as the Li Zhen Workshop? Quantity was one thing, but above them, there were still the family head and the council of elders. Apart from Song Yan, who else could easily use the family's entire cash reserves?

"Your information, at least give us a direction so we can judge it?" The Tang family's amiable manager was silent for a while before asking Wang Sheng.

"The true secret of the Thousand Devil Forbidden Land," Wang Sheng said without hesitation.

Everyone was stunned. The true secret of the Thousand Devil Forbidden Land? Was this peerless expert from five hundred years ago not the true secret of the Thousand Devil Forbidden Land? The records left by the ancestors of each family had never mentioned that there were other secrets!

"You don't think she's the entire secret of the Thousand Devil Forbidden Land, do you?" Wang Sheng couldn't help but laugh when he saw the surprised expressions on everyone's faces.

"Could it be that she's not?" Song Yan had been attracted by Wang Sheng's words. From the depths of her heart, she didn't want to fight Wang Sheng to the death. Since Wang Sheng had the hope of resolving things peacefully, she couldn't help but ask.

"No!" Wang Sheng shook his head decisively. After thinking about it, he felt it wasn't appropriate and changed his words, "At least not all of it."

Hearing Wang Sheng's last sentence, everyone felt relieved. That's right! If a sealing formation that sealed a peerless expert from five hundred years ago, plus the peerless expert herself, didn't count as the secret of the Thousand Devil Forbidden Land, then what would?

"How do you prove it?" Song Yan continued to ask, staring at Wang Sheng with a complicated expression.

"The aura of the Thousand Devil Forbidden Land." Wang Sheng smiled at Song Yan, "Until now, it hasn't dissipated, and you don't even know the reason why the spiritual energy in the Thousand Devil Forbidden Land is so rich."

"You knew it all along?" Song Yan asked again, with a hint of anger at being deceived in her eyes.

"I only found out recently." Wang Sheng sighed slightly in his heart, explaining to Song Yan.

Song Yan herself was actually hiding things from Wang Sheng. Hearing Wang Sheng's explanation, Song Yan suddenly realized that she couldn't blame Wang Sheng for anything. Wang Sheng wasn't a citizen of the Song Kingdom, nor was he Song Yan's husband. What did it matter if he hid some things? Even if it was her own husband, could he be completely honest with her? Hiding things was too normal; not hiding things would be abnormal.

Song Yan's gaze turned to the Tang family's manager this time, and then swept over the Gan family's manager on the left. The Tang family's manager smiled at Wang Sheng and said, "Duke, allow us to discuss it."

The Dai family's manager had already died, so another member of the Dai family was acting as the Dai family's representative, discussing together. Afraid that Wang Sheng would hear, they deliberately used a formation to isolate themselves, and even deliberately turned their backs to Wang Sheng, afraid that Wang Sheng would read their lips, taking many precautions. The remaining people were nervously staring at Wang Sheng, afraid that Wang Sheng would suddenly attack.

Wang Sheng wasn't as nervous as they were. Instead, he used this time to replenish some water and liquid food for the girl in his dream, and at the same time, he gave her two of the lowest-grade Qi-replenishing pills with very gentle effects. She had just been frozen for five hundred years, and her body was extremely weak. She had been injected with an injection to stimulate her life potential and needed gentle nourishment. Those powerful tonics were something she couldn't withstand.

Of course, when feeding her, Wang Sheng also saw the lips of the girl in his dream. This was the first time Wang Sheng had seen the lips of the girl in his dream. They were thin and seemed a little pale from blood loss, making people feel pity at a glance.

The discussion over there didn't seem very peaceful. It seemed that several people were quite agitated, as if they were arguing. Wang Sheng was too lazy to listen to what they were saying, and just quietly held the girl in his dream, gently channeling spiritual energy into her, waiting for the result to be released.
