Dragon's Origin

Chapter 686: To Act or Not to Act (Part 2)

Wang Sheng's mockery wasn't just directed at the six people sent here, but also clearly included those in charge who gave them the orders.

When Wang Sheng left the city, there were people watching him all the way, disguised as ordinary people, perhaps monitoring him, perhaps seeing him off. Wang Sheng ignored these people and walked on his own.

Especially near the dividing line between inside and outside the capital, many people gathered. This was originally a market on the edge, so it was normal for there to be many people. However, it was much more interesting that over 80% of these people were above the seventh level of cultivation.

At this moment, those in charge were actually not too far away, hiding in the crowd on the capital side of the line. Wang Sheng's voice wasn't loud, but it was clear enough for everyone in this area to hear, so naturally they heard it clearly as well.

Why? Why weren't the Shi family and Gan family showing up? Didn't they want to deal with Wang Sheng? What was the reason for this?

The minds of the various leaders and their subordinates were racing, studying the key to this. Could it be that the Shi family and Gan family had some private deal with Wang Sheng? Or had there been some previous actions that made them very afraid of Wang Sheng?

Shi family, Gan family, Shi family, Gan family, the Tang family's leader suddenly had a flash of inspiration. What did the Shi family and Gan family have in common? Wasn't it that they jointly bought a head start in the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land and stayed there for more than a year? Now, on the complete map of the Thousand Absolutes Land core that Wang Sheng sold, it was said that the site where the Shi family and Gan family excavated the peerless treasures was also marked. Could it be because of this?

How did Wang Sheng know the address of the peerless treasures? Obviously, he had seen it inside, there was no doubt about that. Why didn't the two families kill him on the spot? Later, the Gan family even attacked Wang Sheng and Old Daoist Ling Xu, but tragically encountered the experts from Old Lord Temple who came to greet them, leading to complete annihilation. Did the Gan family really intend to kill Wang Sheng at that time?

They weren't fools, and everyone instantly understood that there must be a connection. Wang Sheng must have contributed greatly to the peerless treasures, and it was a crucial role, otherwise how could the Shi family and Gan family not stand with everyone at this juncture, but instead sell Wang Sheng a favor?

The peerless treasures had a map, and since there was a map, Wang Sheng was still needed to contribute, so what about the secret of the Thousand Absolutes Land? The Xia family and Shi family went in for more than a year and half a year respectively, but they never succeeded. Was there any other reason? And would this unsolvable mystery still require Wang Sheng to solve?

Understanding this, the leaders of the various parties hidden in the crowd suddenly understood. They couldn't act at this time, Wang Sheng still had great value to them.

Others didn't know, but the leaders still knew that since entering the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land, the various families had gained nothing except for the loss of manpower for a whole month. Was this a coincidence? If one family didn't gain anything, it might be a coincidence, but all the forces that went in didn't gain anything. Was it a bit of a joke to describe it as a coincidence?

In addition to the map of the Thousand Absolutes Land, did Wang Sheng also master the means to find secrets in the Thousand Absolutes Land that the various families didn't have?

For a time, everyone was very helpless. They originally thought that after Wang Sheng sold the map of the Thousand Absolutes Land core, there wouldn't be much left that could restrain them, but they didn't expect that Wang Sheng would silently leave the Shi family and Gan family as not-so-back-up plans, so that the plans of all parties to act had not yet been carried out before they were withdrawn by the people who made the decision.

How aggrieved, watching Wang Sheng swaggering forward, whether it was the six experts on the roadside, or the leaders of the various parties hidden in the crowd, they all felt this way.

However, just as Wang Sheng was about to walk out of the attack range of the last expert, the expert who kept stuffing peanuts into his mouth glanced at the crowd, and suddenly his pupils shrank. He saw the signal for him to act!

The peanut-eating expert glanced over there again, yes, it was indeed the signal to act. He originally thought that it was impossible to act today, and he was a little disappointed. The more disappointed he was, the more he liked to eat peanuts. But he didn't expect that there would be a turn for the better, and there was a signal to act, so that was right, act directly.

Wang Sheng had already passed his position, and now his back was facing him, and the distance between the two people was almost ten meters. This distance was just right, suddenly exerting force, plus the acceleration phase, when attacking Wang Sheng, it was exactly when the power was the greatest.

"Not good!" The people inside the capital could still see the movements here. As soon as someone made a move, those people immediately saw it.

What was that guy going to do? Doing this wouldn't cut off the hopes of all the families? Which family was that guy from? The identity of that expert flashed through their minds, and the leaders of the various parties thought of it.

A member of the Xia family. Why did the Xia family want to act? This thought still flashed by, and instantly there was an answer. Because the Xia family entered the core of the Thousand Absolutes Land for more than a year first, they must have discovered something and didn't want Wang Sheng to help the people of other families cause trouble, so the Xia family absolutely had a reason to attack Wang Sheng.

"Stop him!" Someone reacted instantly and shouted out.

However, even so, it was already too late. The other family's expert closest to the Xia family's expert was also ten meters away, and even further away from Wang Sheng. But now, the Xia family's expert had already pounced behind Wang Sheng, and everyone even saw the startled look on Wang Sheng's face as he turned his head in surprise.

I don't know how many people in the crowd who saw this scene let out exclamations. It seemed that the entire capital had never had so many people standing in the same place today collectively uttering a cry of "Ah" at the same time, as if Master Yu was holding a baton, standing opposite them and waving it, conducting a choir.

The next moment, the sound of "Ah", which should have been a long sound, suddenly stopped abruptly, as if an invisible big hand instantly strangled everyone's throats.

The expressions on the faces of the exclaiming crowd were also quite wonderful, from the initial surprise to fear to even more surprise to disbelief and incredulity, the changes in everyone's expressions were comparable to the movie emperors on Earth, so natural and without any carving marks.

Wang Sheng did turn his head, but not the frightened turn that everyone initially thought, but as if he had eyes on his back and saw that the Xia family's expert was about to attack him, and when the Xia family's expert was still two meters away from him, he had already taken the initiative to turn around. His eyes were not frightened, and he even had a smile on his face.

The surprise happened in an instant.
