Dragon's Origin

Chapter 321: The Linglong Pavilion Strategy (Part 1)

After carefully studying Wang Sheng's experiences in the core of the Thousand Absolute Lands, the elders of the Old Lord Temple came to a pessimistic conclusion.

Apart from that unbelievably fierce super expert, even the ordinary demon beasts were probably not easy to deal with. Not to mention the unfathomable formations, which were truly beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Logically speaking, the development of anything, as long as the inheritance is not broken, is generally more and more advanced, and more and more excellent. The same is true for formations. The battle five hundred years ago did not break the inheritance of formations for the major families and sects. After five hundred years of development, everyone can't even imagine what kind of formation can restrain such a terrifying expert.

Isn't this very puzzling? It clearly violates the laws of development!

Everyone's eyes were on the Old Ancestor, but Lingxu Old Daoist didn't feel any sense of being expected. Seeing everyone looking at him, Lingxu Old Daoist pretended to be deaf and mute for a long time. Seeing that he couldn't get away with it, he lazily asked, "What are you looking at me for? Does our Old Lord Temple have anything to do with the things inside the core of the Thousand Absolute Lands?"

Wang Sheng laughed as soon as he heard the old Daoist's words. It was not beyond Wang Sheng's expectations at all. With the old Daoist's character, he would not take these disputes over interests to heart at all. This is the old Daoist, an old Daoist who is indifferent to fame and wealth.

"After I cultivate for a while, when I have some confidence, let's go in and take a look together!" Everyone's eyes turned to Wang Sheng, the most senior secular elder. Wang Sheng smiled and said to the old Daoist, "We don't care about fame and wealth, we just want to see those experts."

Going to see experts, this aroused the old Daoist's interest. He didn't say anything, and hummed with the demeanor of an expert, nodding his head.

Everyone was secretly laughing. It seemed that the Old Ancestor of the Old Lord Temple could only be understood by Wang Sheng, this secular elder, who knew exactly what he liked. No one else had this ability.

"Qingchen, you go back and prepare. In a few days, I'll follow you to cultivate a few more times." After Wang Sheng finished speaking to the old Daoist, he turned to Qingchen Old Daoist and gave him some instructions.

"You're cultivating by watching others refine pills every day?" Lingxu Old Daoist asked Wang Sheng with great contempt. In his opinion, if you want to cultivate, then cultivate. Either learn to refine pills yourself and do it yourself. What's the use of just watching others?

Not only did Lingxu Old Daoist have this doubt, but in fact everyone, including Qingchen Old Daoist, was very puzzled, but they were too embarrassed to ask. Now that Lingxu Old Daoist asked, it saved everyone the trouble, and they just had to wait for the answer.

"What's so strange about that?" Wang Sheng replied without thinking, "Didn't I also cultivate by carving stones back then? Didn't you also learn medicine for the Nine Syllable True Words? Is it strange?"

Once he said that, Lingxu Old Daoist immediately understood. Some things were not purely about cultivation itself, but also involved more things. Wang Sheng needed to observe the pill refining process, perhaps to learn to control fire, perhaps to absorb medicinal properties, perhaps for something else. These were all Wang Sheng's cultivation secrets, who could know?

Everyone was also relieved. Although everyone belonged to the Old Lord Temple lineage, everyone's cultivation methods were still different. Especially after the Nine Syllable True Words were added later, it became even more bizarre. Some learned medicine, some tamed beasts, some learned formations, and some even specialized in learning meditation. Nothing was too strange.

"Elder, some time ago, Princess Song of the Song Kingdom came to the Old Lord Temple to kneel and beg, asking us to send two disciples who have mastered the 'Soldier' and 'Fighter' syllables of the Nine Syllable True Words to help Song Guogong recuperate." After finishing the business, Lingxu Old Daoist and a group of white-bearded old Daoists verified their cultivation in the Sutra Pavilion. Wang Sheng and the Grand Master walked out. On the way outside, the Grand Master told Wang Sheng about this matter.

"Princess Song Yan said it was Elder's guidance. This disciple saw that she was very sincere, so I sent two disciples over. What does Elder think of this arrangement?" The Grand Master called himself a disciple, treating Wang Sheng as a junior, and did not look down on Wang Sheng because he was young. He was very respectful.

"It was my guidance. This arrangement is fine." Wang Sheng felt a slight relief in his heart when he heard this news. It seemed that Song Hongde had ultimately failed to overcome the barrier between life and death, and had compromised. In this way, Song Yan can be said to be all-powerful in the Song Kingdom, which is also good, and Wang Sheng can rest assured.

"This disciple will send someone to negotiate with the Linglong Pavilion and ask them for an explanation." The Grand Master seemed to have understood Wang Sheng's plan and took the initiative to talk about the Linglong Pavilion, "During this time, Elder can first communicate with the royal family and those masters of the Linglong Pavilion to see if there is any solution."

As expected of the Grand Master, he easily saw Wang Sheng's main purpose in returning to the capital. However, since the Pavilion Master of the Linglong Pavilion dared to plot against the secular elder of the Old Lord Temple, even if Wang Sheng didn't mention it, the Old Lord Temple would have to talk to the Linglong Pavilion about it. The Old Lord Temple does not ask about worldly affairs, but that does not mean that it will be bullied without fighting back. Even the Shadow Grand Eunuch dared not have any ideas about the Old Lord Temple, which has stood for thousands of years, relying not on being indifferent to the world.

After saying goodbye to the Grand Master, Wang Sheng left the Old Lord Temple and went straight to the capital, straight to the Changsheng Marquis Mansion.

Inside the Marquis Mansion, the level of defense was completely different from what it was before he left. Many people wearing guard uniforms bowed to Wang Sheng when they saw him. However, their movements and temperament showed that they were the young disciples of the Old Lord Temple.

Less than an hour after entering the Marquis Mansion, Meier returned to the mansion. Wang Sheng's commotion this time was too big, and Meier had already heard about it. She rushed back and saw Wang Sheng safe and sound with her own eyes, and then Meier felt relieved.

Seeing Meier, Wang Sheng also had a feeling of returning home. He naturally reached out and touched Meier's pretty face, and Meier also obediently rested her face on Wang Sheng's hand, unwilling to separate for a long time.

"Meier, make an appointment with Uncle Su next door, I want to meet him as soon as possible." Wang Sheng and Meier didn't need to be polite, after being intimate for a while, he instructed Meier to work.

Meier agreed, but did not go out, but glanced to the side. Then Wang Sheng saw Steward Wang bowing and agreeing, and running away quickly to handle it himself. Being able to command Steward Wang so smoothly, Meier must have shown the skills of the mistress of the house a lot these days.

"I have already informed the masters of the Linglong Pavilion. They were also very angry when they heard the news and will ask their Pavilion Master for a clear explanation." Meier seemed to know what Wang Sheng wanted to say to Uncle Su, and proudly told what she had done for Wang Sheng during this time: "Several masters said that if the Pavilion Master does not give a perfect explanation, they will leave the Linglong Pavilion and directly join our Gansheng Yuan."
