Dragon's Origin

“Come on, I don’t believe you didn’t see it.” Old Daoist didn’t believe Wang Sheng's surprise at all, and directly asked Wang Sheng: “Now that you are in your mansion, do you think your words are more effective, or Mei'er's?”

“Mei'er.” Wang Sheng answered without hesitation.

“Why?” Old Daoist asked with a direct smile.

“Because Mei'er manages everything inside and outside the mansion.” Wang Sheng smiled wryly: “I don’t come back often, of course Mei'er’s words are more effective.”

“Even if you stay in the mansion every day, can you be more effective than Mei'er?” Old Daoist's contempt was undisguised, and he directly mocked Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng shrugged, not intending to argue about anything. It was meaningless to argue with Old Daoist on a hypothetical issue.

“Tell me, has Mei'er had any changes recently?!” Lingxu Old Daoist didn’t intend to continue playing dumb, and asked directly: “I originally planned to wait two months to find a solution before telling you, but since you also feel something is wrong, let’s just say it!”

“Changes?” Wang Sheng thought for a while, and quickly replied: “Her cultivation is higher, she is getting more and more beautiful, and she is getting more and more anxious to get married.”

“Only these?” Old Daoist smiled: “Being together every day, many things may be taken for granted, and you may not feel much change.”

“Well, there are actually some, she is becoming more and more charming.” Wang Sheng didn’t need to think, he just didn’t want to admit it at first, but now that he figured it out, he said another answer: “Very attractive, I dare not get too close to Mei'er easily now, I don’t even dare to tease her too much, I’m afraid I definitely won’t be able to hold on for long. Last time when we talked about getting married, Mei'er was so happy that I almost couldn’t control myself.”

“Are you relying on the Nine Words True Words to maintain your composure?” Old Daoist asked another question.

“That’s right!” Wang Sheng nodded: “I have to use all five-word formulas, otherwise a single '临' formula might not work.”

“Even you have to rely on the Nine Words True Words and the five-word formula to maintain your composure, can you imagine how others feel?” Lingxu Old Daoist sighed and said: “Do you really think that you can command everyone in the Changsheng Duke's Mansion just by relying on your title of Ever Victorious Duke?”

“So Mei'er has the final say.” Wang Sheng smiled wryly. He had been pretending not to see it and cooperating all along, thinking that getting married would be good, but he didn’t expect Old Daoist and Grand Master to disagree.

“Maybe it will be better after getting married.” Wang Sheng said something insincerely. Mei'er’s condition may be the result of hormone secretion. When the two of them consummate their marriage, maybe the yin and yang will be balanced, and this situation will no longer exist.

“Do you believe this yourself?” Old Daoist sneered and unceremoniously exposed Wang Sheng’s lie: “You and Rose haven’t gotten married, and you haven’t gotten married to that girl from the Song family, how can you have conjugal relations? Why can’t you do it with Mei'er?”

Wang Sheng smiled wryly again. Old Daoist knew too many of his secrets, and he couldn’t use the reason of premarital chastity to convince Old Daoist, so he could only smile wryly.

“Don’t mention you, even I, Old Daoist, dare not tease Mei'er too much.” Seeing Wang Sheng’s wry smile, Old Daoist also sighed: “Now, as long as she smiles, she is an alluring beauty, truly capable of captivating people!”

“She is alluring even when she doesn’t smile.” Wang Sheng smiled proudly.

“Rose is supposedly Mei'er’s rival in love, even if she knows that Mei'er is definitely the legitimate wife and can’t compete, her attitude towards Mei'er has already exceeded that of a concubine towards the mistress.” Old Daoist reminded Wang Sheng of some details that he hadn’t noticed before.

Wang Sheng pondered for a moment. Indeed, Rose seemed to have been brainwashed by Mei'er, obeying her every word and doing whatever she was told, even more loyal than the most obedient servant. He previously thought she knew how to advance and retreat, but after Old Daoist said that, Wang Sheng realized that it was probably more than that.

“Let’s talk about something else.” Old Daoist continued to say with a smile: “Do you really think that concert tickets can be sold for ten times the price, and even a method for bathing after entering the mountain forest can be sold for 50 million gold coins? Or do you think that the advantage of having a complete map of the Thousand Tuyere Land is worth 500 million gold coins?”

“Is it because Mei'er unconsciously used her charm to influence their judgment when negotiating with them?” Wang Sheng said with a little uncertainty.

“Then what do you think is the reason?” Old Daoist was very dissatisfied with Wang Sheng’s self-deceiving way and asked back in a very bad tone.

“In other words, Mei'er can actually slightly control her attractiveness, only releasing the part that is beneficial to her, and not going too far?” Wang Sheng touched his nose, really not wanting to admit it, but the facts seemed to be true.

“It can only be said that Mei'er’s talent is too amazing.” Old Daoist also considered Wang Sheng’s statement for the first time, and nodded in agreement after a while.

“I was thinking, can we get married while I can still suppress Mei'er’s charm with the five-word formula?” Wang Sheng brought the topic back to the original question again, still about the wedding date.

“Are you sure you won’t be affected after marrying Mei'er?” Old Daoist showed a disdainful sneer again: “Are you sure that Mei'er will be uncontrollably happy after marrying you and you can still remain calm? If you have this confidence, why are you asking us about the date? Just set one yourself! Even if you don’t look at the date, if you pull Mei'er to bed, will Mei'er refuse?”

“Old Daoist, we are still friends if you don’t tell the truth.” Wang Sheng found that he had smiled wryly more today than in the past year combined.

“According to what I know.” Old Daoist didn’t laugh at Wang Sheng this time, but said seriously: “Combining the records from the Old Lord Temple and the Imperial Palace, in the past, there have been women with natural charm, but those who lived past the age of twenty-five never had a primordial spirit exceeding five stars, and their cultivation realm never exceeded the fifth level. You should be able to imagine the reason, right?”

“Afraid their men can’t bear it.” Wang Sheng sighed.

“That should be the case.” Old Daoist couldn’t be completely sure, but the general inference should be correct.

“Are there any who exceeded five stars? Any who exceeded the fifth level?” Wang Sheng asked unwillingly.

“Yes.” Old Daoist nodded affirmatively: “Isn’t Mei'er one? As for those recorded in history, basically none of them lived past the age of twenty-five.”

“How did they die?” Just now he was worried about himself, but now Wang Sheng began to worry about Mei'er.

“Either they became a witch and were killed in a chaotic battle by a group of female experts.” Lingxu Old Daoist had to remind Wang Sheng of the danger: “Or they were humiliated to death by a group of out-of-control experts.” Finally, Old Daoist added: “It all happened at the eighth level.”
