Dragon's Origin

Reuniting with Song Yan under these circumstances created an atmosphere that was somewhat oppressive from beginning to end. Song Yan couldn't relax, and Wang Sheng also felt awkward.

Fortunately, Wang Sheng had already agreed to Song Yan's request, so Song Yan could be considered to have fulfilled her family's instructions. However, she still hinted to Wang Sheng that she would also be entering the Thousand Absolutes Land this time.

This was only right and proper; even if Song Yan didn't want to go, Wang Sheng would force her to go. Wang Sheng was determined to learn about the records of the phoenix that the Song family had secretly treasured.

For this reason, Wang Sheng specifically went to the City Lord's mansion to greet the old butler and put the Song family first. Obviously, the old butler had already anticipated this situation, and he had already taken care of it before Wang Sheng even opened his mouth.

Wang Sheng left Worry-Free City directly with Song Yan and Song Laoyu, heading straight for the Song family's lair. Thinking about it, life was truly full of drama. Just a few years ago, Wang Sheng had fled from the Song family's pursuit, and now he was being grandly invited back by the Song family's eldest daughter herself.

This was even after Wang Sheng had killed at least one fifth-stage expert and dozens of other experts of various levels from the Song family. Wang Sheng fully realized that as long as there were enough benefits, enemies and friends could change at any time. As the saying goes, there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.

The Song family's Great Elder personally received Wang Sheng with a friendly face, showing no hint that he was the one who had ordered Wang Sheng to be chased into the Thousand Absolutes Land back then.

Several other elders were also present. They deliberately emphasized the marriage agreement between Wang Sheng and Song Yan in front of Wang Sheng, putting on the airs of elders, telling jokes as if teasing a young couple.

Judging from this posture, no one would have guessed that some of these elders had once been eager to kill Song Yan. The internal strife of a large family was simply a live-action drama of a wealthy family's grievances, unfolding in front of Wang Sheng, wonderful and real, much better than those TV series on Earth.

Song Yan also performed extremely well, with a shy face, wanting to look but not daring to look openly, only daring to steal glances at Wang Sheng, and then immediately averting her gaze like a startled rabbit, showing a shyness and intimacy that left no doubt that she and Wang Sheng were a couple in love who had been discovered by their elders.

Wang Sheng was very cooperative with Song Yan's performance, playing the role of a lovesick fool who had fallen for Song Yan's charms perfectly. Even these experienced old foxes couldn't tell the truth from the lies.

Even though Wang Sheng was still thinking about asking for a reward in the face of a beauty like Song Yan, whom even the Dai family's Young Master Huan couldn't forget, it already showed that his will was very firm. Now, his behavior of being led around by Song Yan and obeying her every word made the elders so happy that they couldn't close their mouths, wishing they could immediately marry the two of them and completely tie Wang Sheng to the Song family's chariot.

Seeing how indecisive Wang Sheng was in front of Song Yan, the Song family's elders had an idea. After Song Yan was called away for some instructions, she reappeared in front of Wang Sheng, more radiant than ever.

Wang Sheng was arranged to stay in the most luxurious guest room, with several beautiful maids specially assigned to serve him. After Song Yan put on a little jealous act, they were replaced by several male servants. When Song Yan entered Wang Sheng's room to talk business, no one dared to come close to eavesdrop.

"The elders want to ask you if you can take a few more people in?" Song Yan asked, reverting to her domineering CEO aura when she was alone with Wang Sheng. "I've already agreed for you and negotiated a benefit for you."

The Song family had a deep foundation, and Song Yan didn't hold back, directly securing three cultivation manuals for Wang Sheng. They ranged from the fourth stage to the fifth stage to the sixth stage, and they were all the Song family's treasured secrets. Song Yan had specially selected them based on Wang Sheng's current cultivation level, and she had put a lot of thought into it.

"If you say it's okay, then it's okay!" Wang Sheng said noncommittally. Wasn't it up to him to decide how many people to bring?

If it were before, Wang Sheng wouldn't have dared to guarantee the safety of a large group, but since Wang Sheng had made some progress in cultivating the 'Array' incantation of the Nine Character Mantra, he could ensure that the insects in the Thousand Absolutes Land wouldn't actively attack his teammates. If the only remaining danger was demonic beasts, then it wouldn't be a big problem, and more people would actually be safer.

"Laoyu Uncle and I also want to go in together," Song Yan told Wang Sheng another decision, looking at Wang Sheng and waiting for his reaction. It had already been decided that Song Yan would go, but this time there was an extra Laoyu Uncle.

"Of course. If you don't go, how will we appear to be so deeply in love?" Wang Sheng joked as he agreed to Song Yan.

Song Yan's face turned slightly red, and she seemed a little shy about Wang Sheng's joke. But it was only for a moment, and she quickly adjusted her emotions and spoke again.

"If possible, can you listen to my commands after entering the Thousand Absolutes Land?" Song Yan's words startled Wang Sheng.

"You command? Are you sure?" Wang Sheng asked, looking at Song Yan in disbelief. "Are you sure you know how to survive in the Thousand Absolutes Land?"

"You still have the final say on these matters," Song Yan said with a slightly embarrassed expression, but still insisted, "What I mean is, can I decide where to go and what to do?"

Wanting to decide the destination, Wang Sheng raised his head and looked at Song Yan seriously. Song Yan was a little guilty under Wang Sheng's gaze, but she tried her best to raise her head and meet Wang Sheng's eyes, not wanting to lose face at all.

"What's your cultivation level?" Wang Sheng suddenly asked.

"Fifth stage!" Song Yan blurted out. After thinking about it, she seemed to feel that it wasn't enough, so she added a supplement: "Peak!"

Hearing Song Yan's answer, Wang Sheng's eyes widened. This intelligent woman was indeed a genius. In just a few years, she had cultivated from the third stage to the peak of the fifth stage. If she were given some more time in seclusion, it wouldn't be strange for her to break through to the sixth stage.

Although Wang Sheng had also improved from the first stage to the fourth stage in the same amount of time, this was completely different from improving from the third stage to the peak of the fifth stage. The difficulty was on a completely different level. If Song Yan had this cultivation level a few years ago, Dai Huan and Dai Siye wouldn't have dared to offend Song Yan in any way.

"Are you sure your cultivation level can suppress the experts arranged by the elders?" The purpose of Wang Sheng's question about Song Yan's cultivation level wasn't to know the specific level, but for this question: "The royal family and the sect that entered the Thousand Absolutes Land for the second time have all sent experts at the sixth and seventh stages. The royal family even has an old monster following them. Can you suppress them and make them listen to you?"

Song Yan bit her lip, as if she was making a decision in her heart. She raised her head and glanced at Wang Sheng. Perhaps Wang Sheng's constant calmness gave her enough strength. She gritted her teeth and said her ultimate request.

"Can you help me kill them after entering the Thousand Absolutes Land?"
