Dragon's Origin

Chapter 301: Only This Once (Part 2)

After the first storm of passion, Song Yan's head softly rested on Wang Sheng's arm, her entire body seemingly boneless, entwined around him. Her rosy skin still bore the marks Wang Sheng had left during their lovemaking.

Song Yan's face was filled with immense satisfaction and joy, her eyes showing only Wang Sheng's shadow, with the occasional flicker of conflict.

Wang Sheng, also breathing heavily, lay resting. Both of them were highly skilled cultivators, and even though it was their first time, it had taken them over an hour.

With his strong arm around Song Yan's naked body, Wang Sheng suddenly felt like a bastard. He clearly had the girl from his dreams in his heart, yet he had been muddled into accepting Song Yan. What was that all about?

"What happened?" Only after they were so close and had finally calmed down from the peak of excitement did Wang Sheng ask.

It was simply impossible that Song Yan would offer herself to Wang Sheng for no reason. Something must have happened that Song Yan couldn't control, something against her will, that would make her make such a fait accompli decision. The only possibility was Duke Song's side.

Last time in the underground palace, Duke Song's three expert guards snatched the Divine Reviving Pill that Baoqing Yu Tang had been wanting all along. Presumably, the Reviving Pill had greatly improved Duke Song's health, which was why he made some decisions that Song Yan didn't like. Otherwise, Song Yan wouldn't have acted like this.

"Nothing, just jealous," Song Yan's head nestled between Wang Sheng's neck, her long black hair scattered on Wang Sheng's chest, tickling him. Hearing Wang Sheng ask her, Song Yan casually replied.

"Jealous?" Wang Sheng smiled wryly. The Song Yan he knew might violently resist, might gamble everything, but she would never do something like this out of jealousy.

"Jealous of you living with that young female shopkeeper with a natural charm," Song Yan hugged Wang Sheng tighter, playfully answering, "You are my fiancé, I can't let you be snatched away by those vixens."

"Did Duke Song's health greatly improve after taking the Reviving Pill?" Wang Sheng smiled and suddenly asked.

Song Yan's body suddenly stiffened, then slowly relaxed. Her head was still buried in Wang Sheng's neck, so Wang Sheng couldn't see her expression.

Feeling Song Yan's hot breath, Wang Sheng waited for a while before finally hearing Song Yan's voice: "My father's health has indeed improved a lot."

"So he made some decisions that you didn't like very much?" Wang Sheng asked again, "Forcing you to marry some guy you don't like?"

"No," Song Yan denied, and without waiting for Wang Sheng to guess further, she proactively replied, "He wants to find some young talents and genius experts from all over the world for me to meet in arranged dates."

"Blind dates?" Wang Sheng was stunned. Okay, the ultimate weapon that all parents in the world would use, an extremely powerful ultimate killer-level reason whether on Earth or in the Yuansoul World.

"You used to be my fiancé, and now you are my man," Song Yan hugged Wang Sheng tighter again, as if afraid he would suddenly disappear, and said, "No one can change that, not even my father."

"How did Duke Song take the Reviving Pill?" Wang Sheng suddenly asked a question that seemed almost unrelated to Song Yan's previous answer.

This question stunned Song Yan. She wanted to ask Wang Sheng, but Wang Sheng had asked very seriously, without the slightest hint of joking. Could there be any particular attention needed for the method of taking it?

"He just took it back and took one directly with water," Song Yan raised her head, looked at Wang Sheng anxiously, and asked, "His body improved a lot after taking it, and he was in good spirits, and he was normal for more than a month in a row. Is that not right?"

Wang Sheng frowned. Taking a pill and immediately becoming vigorous? This kind of thing can only appear in legends or myths. It was really a pity to waste a Reviving Pill like that, along with the five hundred years of preservation efforts of that alchemy sect.

"Did he have any abnormalities such as vomiting, diarrhea, or profuse sweating after taking the medicine?" Wang Sheng asked again.

"No vomiting or diarrhea, but he did sweat profusely for several days," Song Yan saw Wang Sheng asking seriously, and couldn't bother to be intimate with Wang Sheng. She raised her beautiful upper body beside Wang Sheng and asked anxiously, "What, is there a problem?"

Wang Sheng thought for a while, considered his words, and then asked Song Yan, "Xiao Yan, if there is a legend about a pill that can make you become a legendary master immediately after taking one, would you believe it?"

"No!" Song Yan shook her head directly after hearing this: "Cultivation is a matter of years and months, not something that can be improved overnight. Unless the pill completely stimulates all the potential of the body, allowing people to explode with the strength of a legendary realm in a short period of time, but once the effect of the medicine is over, I am afraid it will either be death or disability."

Just as she said this, Song Yan's face changed drastically. Could it be that the Reviving Pill was also like this? Then wouldn't her father be in great danger?

"Are you saying that the Reviving Pill is also...?" Song Yan was a little afraid to get the real answer, and even her questions became a little hesitant. She was very upset that Song Hongde forced her to do things she didn't want to do, but Song Yan didn't want to see Song Hongde seriously injured or killed because of this either.

"Fortunately, the Reviving Pill is not that kind of pill," Wang Sheng's answer made Song Yan worry a little less, but she still felt that there was a problem.

"Just like cultivation, curing diseases and dispelling toxins is not something that can be done overnight," Wang Sheng continued: "As the saying goes, illness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like drawing silk. No matter how good the pill is, it is impossible to remove the toxins that Duke Song has accumulated for decades all at once or within a few days. His method of taking it was wrong."

Song Yan was confused. Isn't the method of taking pills always taking a pill with water? What other methods are there? But what Wang Sheng said made sense, so Song Yan couldn't help but doubt.

"Then how should he take it?" Song Yan hurriedly asked.

Wang Sheng was silent for a while. Song Yan waited for a long time without getting an answer, and suddenly realized the conflict between Wang Sheng and her father, and felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

"Wang Sheng, we are already like this, and you still call him Duke Song. Can't you treat him as your father-in-law?" Song Yan asked, gritting her teeth.

"I'm afraid Duke Song doesn't think so," Wang Sheng shook his head and said, "Otherwise you wouldn't be here."

Song Yan was speechless. If Duke Song really recognized Wang Sheng's relationship with Song Yan, he probably wouldn't have had the intention to kill Wang Sheng. This was an unsolvable knot, and Song Yan was really in a dilemma.

"For your sake, I will make an exception to give him some guidance once," Wang Sheng looked at Song Yan's troubled expression, his heart softened, and he sighed: "However, only this once. Next time we meet, I might kill him with my own hands."
