Dragon's Origin

## Chapter 594: The Excited A'Qi (Part 2)

If Wang Sheng's knot was the slaughter of over a hundred villagers by Zhu Xingsheng and his son when they left the capital, then A'Qi's knot was her younger brother, separated from her since childhood and used to control her.

To find this younger brother, A'Qi used almost every means possible. She not only invested all her savings but also the more than ten million gold coins Wang Sheng gave her, leaving not a single coin.

Reward messages, bounties on the lives of Xia family experts, all sorts of methods were used, and today, she finally received definitive news. A'Qi had spent over a decade looking for this brother. Suddenly hearing the news, how could A'Qi not be so excited she wanted to cry?

A'Qi really couldn't control herself today. From the moment she discovered early in the assassin's hall that her reward message had results, she waited in the assassin's hall until the guy claiming the reward arrived in the afternoon, and only then did she learn the specific details from him.

That person was originally from the Xia Kingdom and was very familiar with it. A'Qi's reward was large enough to be worth half a year of hard work.

However, what really allowed him to get the news was the constantly changing situation recently.

During this time, the Xia family suffered from both internal and external troubles, reaching the point where they could barely hold on. Wang Sheng used a high price in the Divine Might Prison to offer bounties on the lives of Xia family experts, the Shan Yue Kingdom desperately attacked the Xia Kingdom to relieve pressure on the Dai Kingdom, and various parties took the opportunity to kick them while they were down. To describe it as being in a state of utter chaos would not be an exaggeration.

Just a month ago, the Dai Kingdom was on the verge of collapse, but just as everyone's attention was diverted to the Old Monarch's Temple Dharma Assembly, waiting for the Daoist sect to express its position, the Dai Kingdom, which the major vassal states thought was already meat on the chopping board, suddenly and rapidly recovered its vitality, directly escaping from the brink of destruction and returning to the ranks of the eight major vassal states. Although its ranking dropped a lot, it was, after all, no longer in danger of being destroyed. (Redemption Code: ZZ7XK4)

This put enormous pressure directly on the Xia Kingdom. Although the Qiu Kingdom, like the Xia Kingdom, was attacked by the Shan Yue Kingdom in the early stages, the pressure on the Qiu Kingdom was directly reduced to a safe level after the Tang Kingdom joined in. In particular, the Shan Yue Kingdom almost exhausted all its strength to attack the Xia Kingdom, and the Xia Kingdom had lost several cities in succession. In this situation, the Xia Kingdom, one of the eight major vassal states, was instead on the verge of destruction.

In an instant, it became a piece of fat meat in the eyes of all the vassal states. How could this be allowed? The Xia Kingdom's higher-ups certainly knew where the crisis lay. The example of the triumphant return of the Kai Xuan Kingdom was before them. The Xia Kingdom had not completely digested the territory of the Kai Xuan Kingdom, and now it had become the target. To avoid the crisis of national extinction, the Xia Kingdom's ruler and elders discussed it and quickly made a response.

How to respond? In fact, the Dai Kingdom had already provided an excellent example. It was simply a matter of exposing the strength that had been hidden in the dark, greatly increasing the national strength, and no longer having to worry about the danger of national extinction. Was there a simpler and more brutal method than this?

The Dai Kingdom had secretly trained experts and hidden strength. Could it be that the Xia Kingdom, also one of the eight major vassal states, did not? What a joke!

Starting after the Dharma Assembly, the Xia Kingdom successively exposed batches of young experts. Outsiders didn't know where these experts were trained, but each of them had extremely strong cultivation.

Even though the Xia Kingdom had previously lost thousands of experts, the number of experts in the Xia Kingdom even exceeded the number before the losses with the continuous appearance of new experts over the course of half a month. If there was a disadvantage, it was that the average cultivation of these young experts was half a major realm lower than that of the original old experts, and their overall strength was slightly inferior, but it was enough to stabilize the Xia Kingdom.

A'Qi's younger brother was among this group of suddenly emerging young experts. What A'Qi didn't expect was that her younger brother was one of the young experts that the Xia Kingdom focused on training.

From the mouth of the guy who delivered the information, A'Qi learned that her younger brother's cultivation talent was outstanding, and his Yuan Soul was also a very advanced nine-star top-level Yuan Soul, much more advanced than the six-star Yuan Soul on A'Qi's body. The Xia Kingdom attached great importance to her younger brother, focusing on training him and investing a lot of resources, even training him as a commander in the mid-to-high-level leadership team.

Now, A'Qi's younger brother is the leader of a city garrison expert in the Xia Kingdom, with a legendary realm cultivation, hundreds of experts under his command, holding a high position and great power, and very prestigious.

Finally getting news of her younger brother, and knowing that her younger brother was not only not being bullied, but also being given key training and having a bright future, A'Qi's heart was so happy that she didn't know how to describe it. Wang Sheng was right next to her, and A'Qi couldn't help but cry in Wang Sheng's arms, releasing all the emotions she had accumulated over the years.

Wang Sheng gently hugged A'Qi until she had released all the emotions such as grievances, worries, and anger in her heart, then he reached out and picked A'Qi up and sat her on his lap.

"Now you don't have to worry about the Xia family using your younger brother's life to threaten you, right?" Wang Sheng asked A'Qi with a smile as she was still wiping away her tears.

With A'Qi's younger brother's current status, the Xia family would be too busy protecting him, how could they use him to threaten a death warrior who had already been sent out as a gift?

However, this was based on the premise that A'Qi was aware of the situation. If A'Qi was still unaware as before, the Xia family would definitely continue to use A'Qi's younger brother's life to threaten A'Qi and make A'Qi work for the Xia family.

"Are you sure that person is your younger brother?" Wang Sheng suddenly thought of a question. If this news was not accurate, then A'Qi would be happy for nothing.

"According to that person's description, it seems very likely." A'Qi was just happy to hear the news, but she had not verified it further. Hearing Wang Sheng ask, she honestly replied.

"Rest for a few days, and when the Xia family is stable, go and see for yourself and verify it yourself." Wang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and instructed A'Qi.

A'Qi obviously didn't realize what Wang Sheng meant by the Xia family being stable. She thought that the Xia family would be stable after having so many experts and no longer worrying about national extinction!

"Okay!" A'Qi was in a good mood. She was already somewhat obedient to Wang Sheng, and now Wang Sheng's instructions were exactly what she wanted, so how could she object?

After comforting A'Qi, watching A'Qi happily lead the two maids to prepare dinner for him, Wang Sheng was also happy for A'Qi. If that was true, it could be said that A'Qi had removed a huge burden.

A'Qi had just left Wang Sheng's arms not long ago when Wang Sheng received a notification that the city lord's mansion's butler, Old Brother, had come to visit. It was as if he had come right on time, very precisely.

"Quick, please come in!" Wang Sheng was in a good mood, and even his voice carried a lot of happiness.
