Dragon's Origin

#389 - Born to be a businessman (Part 2)

“Stop thinking about the future.” Wang Sheng stared at the female boss for a while before continuing to poke at the fire, asking, “You can’t even get past this hurdle. What do we do with these people?”

Returning to the original question, the female boss seemed to have an idea this time, asking, “Would it be a problem for you to protect so many of us while looking for the ruins?”

This time, Wang Sheng wasn’t as confident as before. He didn’t answer verbally, simply shaking his head. Taking them out was one thing, finding the ruins was another. One was actively escaping danger, the other was actively approaching it. Those were two different things.

“Then let’s keep them for now,” the female boss sighed, saying, “With them around, they might be able to contribute something at the ruins. If my people are in danger, they might be able to save a few more.”

“I can guarantee that if your people are in trouble, even if they’re standing right next to them, they won’t lift a finger,” Wang Sheng still sighed.

“If we don’t take this gamble, we’ll die if we go out. What else can we rely on to establish ourselves?” The female boss also lowered her head, seemingly unwilling to talk about it.

If it were someone who knew how to read the situation, they would immediately pat their chest and promise to take responsibility, maybe even win the beauty’s heart. Unfortunately, Wang Sheng seemed like an insensitive blockhead, completely oblivious, not even responding with a single word, which made the female boss curse him inwardly for a long time. But she had to admit that Wang Sheng was the truly smart one.

Since the female boss decided to continue the adventure, Wang Sheng didn’t interfere much with the subsequent matters. At most, he could ensure that the female boss wouldn’t be in danger when she was by his side. As for the others, Wang Sheng would at most take care of a few he had dealt with before. The rest could only rely on their own luck and fend for themselves!

The female boss’s people were all poisoned and controlled. Wang Sheng used the Array Word tactic on each of them several times, not to immediately detoxify them, but to slightly alleviate the toxicity, so they could last until the day they got the antidote.

Mass detoxification was out of the question. Wang Sheng had plenty of Heart Cleansing Pills, which, combined with his Array Word tactic, could definitely detoxify them. But taking the Heart Cleansing Pill to detoxify would cause diarrhea, and it would definitely be noticed.

Wang Sheng didn’t forget to give each of the sleeping experts an Array Word tactic. This way, when they woke up, they would feel exceptionally good, full of energy, and even the marks from insect bites would disappear, which could also conceal the reason they fell asleep.

The female boss was the top priority, and Wang Sheng put in more effort on her than on anyone else. This allowed the female boss's previously poor physical condition to improve at least twofold overnight. Unfortunately, no matter how effective the Array Word tactic was, it couldn't completely restore her overnight, but at least now she was almost like a normal person.

When he woke up in the morning, Flying Fox suddenly realized something was wrong and jumped up abruptly, looking around vigilantly. The surrounding companions all laughed when they saw him jump up so violently, which made Flying Fox feel relieved. It seemed that he was a bit tired yesterday and had fallen into a deep sleep without realizing it.

Stretching, Flying Fox found his body unusually relaxed, with a feeling of refreshment. It seemed that this sleep not only rejuvenated him but also slightly improved his cultivation. No wonder the people in the Yu Bao Sect's camp were flocking there. Just one night of sleep had such an effect. What would it be like to live there for half a year?

It wasn’t just Flying Fox who had this feeling, but every expert who woke up in the morning felt the same way. Of course, no one suspected that they had been tampered with. They just thought that they were too tired these days in the Thousand Absolutes Land, and they had friends guarding them, so they slept so soundly. In addition, the safety of the camp where they camped last night also had a lot to do with it.

Everyone woke up feeling as if their cultivation had improved. This feeling of surprise quickly overshadowed the reason why they had fallen asleep before. Everyone began to envy the Yu Bao Sect's camp.

Among the expert guards, there was a middle-aged man who was usually very low-key and diligent. At this moment, his face, like everyone else's, showed a happy smile, as if he was also happy for the changes in his physical cultivation. However, in his heart, it was a cold一片.

No one knew his true identity, not even Flying Fox. He was not actually from Baoqing Yu Tang, but a killer from the Divine Might Prison.

Someone approached the Divine Might Prison and asked them to send a killer to kill Wang Sheng. Originally, the Divine Might Prison didn't want to accept this business. The target was Wang Sheng, and the location was in the Thousand Absolutes Land. This was almost a guaranteed death mission. But the price offered was high, and they didn't know what benefits were promised, which moved the higher-ups of the Divine Might Prison.

The killer was called Black Snake, which was his code name. He was also a senior killer in the Divine Might Prison. Unlike the assassins in Worry-Free City, who were distinguished by rank, the assassins in the Divine Might Prison were never divided in this way. Their identities were secret. Usually, only friends or superiors who knew their identities knew about them. Others simply didn't know their assassin identities.

Black Snake hadn't killed many people, but every one of them was an expert. But never before had he felt so much fear as he did today.

Those idiot Baoqing Yu Tang guards all thought they had fallen asleep because they were tired, but Black Snake didn't think so. His vigilance had always been high, and he had a record of not closing his eyes for days and nights. Especially when he was on a mission, Black Snake would never easily put himself in a passive position.

The problem was that Black Snake himself had fallen asleep last night. Without warning, and after getting up, he didn't feel like he had been ambushed. Everything seemed normal. But the more this was the case, the more Black Snake feared. The person who could put him to sleep silently could definitely kill him silently.

Besides Wang Sheng, no one could do these things in the Thousand Absolutes Land. Black Snake had never felt death so close to him. It could be said that he had brushed past it. Wang Sheng had deliberately let them go, otherwise, it was questionable whether they could wake up this morning.

Black Snake couldn't be sure if Wang Sheng had discovered him, and he also knew that this was not important to Wang Sheng. Because the two murderous idiots in the Baoqing Yu Tang team had clearly told Wang Sheng their purpose, so once Wang Sheng decided to take action, he would definitely wipe them all out.

Either continue the mission, but the possible result is eternal damnation. Or give up the mission and find a chance to escape immediately. Although the Thousand Absolutes Land is dangerous, it may not be without a glimmer of hope. In short, Black Snake sadly discovered that successfully assassinating Wang Sheng and escaping from the Thousand Absolutes Land alone were the same probability, and both were so slim.
