Dragon's Origin

#740 - Reasons for seeking asylum (Part 1)

"Actually, the fact that the Palace Lord sent out law enforcement disciples was also told to me by my master." At this point, Rose and Wang Sheng had nothing to hide and told the truth.

Wang Sheng nodded, that made sense. Last time, someone from Worry-Free City sent a message saying that Rose had learned the news from a drunken high-level official, which was a bit unbelievable in itself. How could the decision made by the King and important officials of the Triumphant Kingdom, such as assassinating Marquis Changsheng of the Capital, be notified to the person in charge of the Triumphant Palace in Worry-Free City through a conspicuous messenger bird?

"Senior, what official position does your Hidden Hall Master hold in the Triumphant Kingdom?" Wang Sheng asked curiously.

"No official position." Tantai Yao said with some dissatisfaction, "Just a member of the sect's Elder Council, but because I am a woman and have no strength, I am only notified when something happens, and even consultation is免了. It's not as good as when I was in the Triumphant Palace."

This was understandable. When in the Triumphant Palace, the Hidden Hall was an important source of income for the sect, so its status was naturally high and its words carried weight. After the founding of the country and the conferral of titles, with land, population, and production, a territory of thousands of miles, plus millions or even tens of millions of people, the income was much higher than the small profits earned by the Hidden Hall from selling a few women, so it was naturally not valued.

"Actually, from the time Marquis killed the hundreds of experts in that manor but did not further attack the disciples in the Thousand Absolute Land, this old woman knew that the Triumphant Kingdom was in danger." Tantai Yao was old and sophisticated, and she was the Hidden Hall Master, who usually guided those female disciples on how to hook men's hearts. She almost instantly guessed what Wang Sheng was thinking, so she immediately jumped out to express her feelings: "This old woman asks herself that she has not let down the Triumphant Palace, nor has she let down the disciples of this hall. She doesn't want to die with them for no reason. So, she went directly to Worry-Free City to find Rose."

She was a smart person, Wang Sheng nodded secretly in his heart. Being able to see the signs of danger from a little clue, this woman was much smarter than the King of the Triumphant Kingdom and their elders.

The Dai family moved against Wang Sheng, and none of the experts in the Thousand Absolute Land were left, and even a Great Elder of the Dai family was implicated. Why was it that when the Triumphant Palace moved against Wang Sheng's property, only those who took action were killed, and those who made the decision were to be let go?

If you think about it carefully from this perspective, you can see the clues. That was an extremely dangerous moment, but it was ridiculous that the Palace Lord of the Triumphant Palace and those important officials thought that Wang Sheng was afraid of them. They didn't die unjustly.

Before, asking Rose to come to the capital was to settle those beautiful experts who were about to be sent over, but now that there was Rose's master, the Hidden Hall Master, things seemed to be much easier.

"Actually, this time, I shamelessly followed Rose to the Marquis's mansion because this old woman has something to ask for." Tantai Yao explained so much, and before Wang Sheng could speak, she took the initiative to state her intention.

"Senior, please speak!" Wang Sheng hurriedly said politely: "Rose took care of me a lot in Worry-Free City before, anything can be discussed." The implication was that he was giving Rose some face.

Mei'er also blinked her beautiful eyes, looking at the immortal beauty in front of her, waiting for her to say her intention.

"It's a bit embarrassing to say." Tantai Yao seemed unable to say it, hesitated for a moment, and then opened her mouth and said: "This old woman is shameless and is here to ask Marquis to take in this old woman and Rose."

"Okay, okay!" Before Wang Sheng could agree, Mei'er had already nodded in agreement: "Live in the Marquis's mansion from now on, stay as long as you want."

"I couldn't ask for more!" It turned out to be this request, Wang Sheng thought it was something else, and nodded in agreement without saying a word: "It's my honor to have Senior and Rose come to help me!"

Wang Sheng asked A Qi to bring Rose to his mansion, which was actually meant to take care of her, so that Rose would not be implicated because of the Triumphant Palace. After all, she was someone who had helped him, and Wang Sheng was not the kind of unrighteous person. Having one more Tantai Yao was not a problem at all, not to mention that she had reminded him to be careful of the law enforcement disciples of the Triumphant Palace through Rose. Just the title of Rose's master was enough for Wang Sheng to give enough respect. Not to mention, this immortal beauty was also a terrifying expert in the mid-stage of the ninth level.

Mei'er also nodded busyly on the side. Asking for refuge was just a polite way of saying it, where couldn't a master of the mid-stage of the ninth level live well? Being able to come was giving Wang Sheng face, giving herself face, so of course she had to be treated well. Moreover, the cultivation technique of this old beauty was definitely something that Mei'er coveted!

Looking at Mei'er's appearance of having found a treasure, Wang Sheng couldn't help but shake his head slightly. This woman, as soon as she saw that someone was good at maintaining her appearance, immediately became a brainless fan, not thinking about it, why would a master of the mid-stage of the ninth level come to a junior of the sixth or seventh level to seek refuge?

"Thank you, Marquis, thank you, Madam!" Tantai Yao got up gracefully to thank: "This concubine is being polite." But she changed the old woman's address to concubine without showing any signs.

As soon as she said thank you, Madam, Mei'er was even happier and didn't know where she was. She didn't care about Tantai Yao's self-proclaimed title, but Wang Sheng heard it clearly. Such an immortal beauty living in his mansion in the future, calling herself a concubine to him every day, just thinking about it was a huge trouble!

With Tantai Yao's cultivation, she could live well anywhere, why did she have to come to his mansion? Wang Sheng couldn't help but feel suspicious in his heart, and he was afraid that he would have to keep one eye open when sleeping in the Marquis's mansion in the future.

"Marquis, with your vision, if this concubine and Marquis were to fight, who would win and who would lose?" Tantai Yao was like a psychological analyzer, scanning with her eyes and being accurate, almost seeing through what Wang Sheng was thinking. Wang Sheng was still wondering, and Tantai Yao asked a question with a smile.

"If it's a friendly exchange, I definitely can't beat Senior." Wang Sheng was stunned, then looked at Tantai Yao, and answered seriously: "If it's a life-and-death battle, I'm afraid Senior won't be spared."

After answering this question, Wang Sheng suddenly understood why Tantai Yao, a dignified expert of the legendary realm, had to come to the Marquis's mansion to seek refuge.

In the past few decades, Tantai Yao had been practicing these face-preserving mental methods. It wasn't that she hadn't practiced combat techniques, but because of the rejection of the two techniques, the combat techniques could only be cultivated to the fourth level at most and could not be improved any further. For decades, Tantai Yao had been living a life of luxury in the Triumphant Palace. Don't even mention fighting, it was estimated that she hadn't even done heavy work a few times. Such a delicate young lady, suddenly the Triumphant Palace was destroyed, if she didn't find a backer, it was really impossible for her to live comfortably.
