Dragon's Origin

“I’m sorry!” Hearing what Tantai Yao said, Wang Sheng immediately apologized to her. He felt bad for hitting a sore spot.

“It’s nothing!” Tantai Yao recovered quickly. She had just revealed her true feelings for a moment, and then immediately returned to normal. “It was a long time ago.”

Wang Sheng didn’t press her, but Tantai Yao seemed to suddenly have a desire to confide, and said to Wang Sheng, “Do you know how I became the Hidden Hall Master?”

Wang Sheng hadn't studied the internal affairs of Triumphal Palace in depth, so he shook his head directly.

“My lover was originally the Palace Master of Triumphal Palace!” Tantai Yao picked up her teacup, took a slow sip, and said, “The previous one. More than a decade ago, she was seriously injured by a legendary realm monster in an accident and died not long after.”

So she was the widow of the previous Triumphal Palace Master. It was no surprise that she became the Hidden Hall Master. With this identity, even if the current Triumphal Palace Master was just putting on a show, he could only treat Tantai Yao with respect, otherwise, he would be criticized by the sect members.

Suddenly, Wang Sheng thought of another possibility and asked curiously, “Then why isn’t the current Triumphal Palace Master your son, Sister Tantai?”

Wang Sheng wouldn't believe that there was no tradition of father-to-son succession in a reclusive sect like Triumphal Palace, unless there was an accident, otherwise, it would be impossible for power to fall into other hands.

“Son?” Tantai Yao suddenly gave a bitter smile, her eyes looking somewhere, and said quietly, “I don’t have any children.”

Seeing Wang Sheng looking at her strangely, Tantai Yao didn’t play coy and answered directly, “Do you think there’s no price to pay for practicing the Everlasting Spring skill?”

“Practicing the Everlasting Spring skill prevents you from having children?” Wang Sheng's expression changed instantly, and after a little thought, he immediately nodded, “I should have known. How could you stay young forever if you hurt your vitality by having children? I see!”

In that case, it was normal for Tantai Yao to disapprove of Triumphal Palace’s approach. She probably started arranging for Sister Rose to go to Worry-Free City to prepare a backup plan after her husband died.

Because these beauties would have no descendants, even if they entered the family of a wealthy man, they would only attract their husband more, but would not take away the opportunities of other wives and concubines. Accordingly, it would reduce a lot of hostility. No wonder it’s generally heard that the Hidden Hall disciples of Triumphal Palace are very integrated into their families, so that’s why.

Wang Sheng just said it casually, but Tantai Yao had already widened her eyes in surprise, “What else do you know?”

“Quite a bit.” Wang Sheng didn’t hide anything. The other party was an expert in beauty and skincare, and what he knew was not enough to be seen, so it didn't matter if he said it. “You need good living conditions, enough nourishing supplements, a happy mood, no daily worries, regular maintenance, and harmonious and fulfilling relations between men and women. It would be even better if you have a dedicated partner, always maintain a girlish mentality, and avoid extreme emotional swings. It’s best not to get injured, and so on.”

At first, Tantai Yao didn't take it seriously, but as Wang Sheng continued, she became somewhat shocked: “How do you know? Have you seen the Everlasting Spring skill?”

How was that possible? Wang Sheng shook his head directly. But he still had to answer Sister Tantai's question: “These are necessary conditions for beauty and skincare. Don’t forget what my Runzi Workshop does. The principles are all the same.”

Runzi Workshop was in the business of women's beauty, so of course, it had some foundation in this area. Wang Sheng could explain it in one sentence, and Tantai Yao accepted it.

“Since Marquis, you know so much, you can naturally understand why my sisters need so many gold coins, right?” Tantai Yao didn't want to talk about her lover anymore, and cleverly switched the topic to the huge amount of gold coins needed for the cultivation of the women.

Wang Sheng nodded to show that he understood. Not to mention the sky-high price of supplements, just to maintain the worry-free life of so many women would require a huge sum of money, as well as enough maintenance. Ordinary people really couldn't afford it.

“Then what do you plan for us sisters to do?” Tantai Yao got to the main point, and her mood recovered a bit of playfulness, taking the opportunity to ask Wang Sheng about the arrangements for the women. However, Tantai Yao still added jokingly: “The arrangements have to satisfy my sisters! You also know that if they are not satisfied, they will not be in a good mood, and their cultivation will suffer.”

“I’ll ask the sisters what they want to do when I have time.” Wang Sheng didn't care about this. If he really wanted to settle them down, Wang Sheng had ten thousand ways to arrange them properly. Therefore, Wang Sheng could let these beauties make their own requests without any psychological burden.

“Then can I make a request on behalf of my sisters?” Tantai Yao was not surprised by this. If there was one person in this world who could meet her envisioned harsh requirements, it would be Wang Sheng. Apart from Wang Sheng, neither the Emperor nor the various lords could do it. This was also one of the reasons why Tantai Yao favored Wang Sheng from the beginning.

“Tell me, I’ll try my best to satisfy you.” Wang Sheng didn't say anything definitive, still waiting to hear what Tantai Yao meant.

“It sounds like we’re being a bit excessive.” Tantai Yao said a little embarrassedly, “But I’ve been with these sisters since they were little, and they haven’t suffered any hardships or grievances. Apart from practicing the Everlasting Spring skill, they haven’t learned any skills. They only know how to cultivate and dress themselves beautifully. Can Marquis arrange that?”

They want to avoid hardships, avoid grievances, be in a good mood, and be beautiful. They certainly can't do any manual labor. Does such a profession exist? Apart from those who like the beauty of these women and are willing to spend a lot of money to support them, is there such a good thing in the world that can earn at least 500 million gold coins based on this?

Even if this request was made to the Emperor, the Emperor wouldn't be able to satisfy it. They don't do anything, Wang Sheng doesn't want to favor these women, and he still has to spend a lot of money to support them. Why? But Wang Sheng just nodded.

“I can!” Wang Sheng not only nodded but also nodded without hesitation: “Be beautiful, be in a good mood, avoid hardships and grievances, no problem. Runzi Workshop is in the business of beauty and cosmetics, it can completely be done.”

Wang Sheng's quick agreement made Tantai Yao even more embarrassed, and she stammered a bit, “Marquis, can we not enter Madam Mei’s Runzi Workshop? Can we do a separate business?” After saying that, Tantai Yao immediately explained, “It’s not that I have any dissatisfaction with Madam Mei, it’s just that, we…” She suddenly couldn't continue, stopping at this word. Didn't want to rely on Mei'er's breath? Didn't want to be confused with Mei'er's Runzi Workshop? A bit of both, anyway, she couldn't say it.

“I can!” Just when Tantai Yao felt that she was being a bit excessive, Wang Sheng nodded again, not feeling embarrassed at all.
