Chapter 6100 Fighting a rock with an egg
Chen Wanqing slapped his hand away and glared at him: “What nonsense were you spouting just now?”
David withdrew his hand and shrugged: “Nonsense? I’m telling the truth. Isn’t Miss Chen my cultivation partner?”
Chen Wanqing’s cheeks flushed slightly, and she spat softly, “Who’s your dual cultivation partner? The exam isn’t over yet!”
“Not yet over?”
David raised his eyebrows. “Didn’t we already pass the second hurdle? You said we’d have a private talk next, wasn’t that about sleeping together?”
“Stop talking nonsense!” Chen Wanqing blushed!
He didn’t understand. David was quite capable, so why did he keep talking about sleeping with women?
“Young Master Chen, the reason I held a martial arts contest to choose a husband is actually for another reason!”
Chen Wanqing is telling the truth!
David smiled. In fact, he had long seen through Chen Wanqing’s trickery in the martial arts contest to choose a husband, and he was right!
“Miss Chen, actually, I entered the martial arts contest to find a husband because of the elixir of immortality.”
David said with a smile!
Chen Wanqing was slightly startled, then took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and returned to her indifferent attitude.
“Come with me.”
He turned and walked further into the yard.
David followed.
The two of them passed through the moon gate and arrived at an elegant private room.
The room was simply furnished with a small table and a sofa. A tea set was placed on the table, and a soft mattress was placed on the sofa. Incense burned by the window, its aroma lingering in the air.
Chen Wanqing sat at the table and motioned for David to sit down as well.
David sat opposite her, his gaze fixed on her face, waiting for her to speak.
Chen Wanqing was silent for a moment, then slowly said, “Young Master Chen, you just said that you participated in the martial arts contest to find a husband for the elixir of immortality?”
David nodded: “Right. I need 360 bottles of immortality liquid. Bring the teleportation array to the Holy Land of Light.”
“Three hundred and sixty bottles…”
Chen Wanqing nodded slightly, “This amount is indeed not small for ordinary rogue cultivators. But for my Chen family, this is just a drop in the ocean.”
He looked at David with honest eyes: “Young Master Chen, if you need the elixir of immortality, I can give it to you right now. I alone can afford up to a thousand bottles.”
David raised his eyebrows: “Miss Chen is so generous? What are the conditions?”
Chen Wanqing’s lips curled slightly: “Young Master Chen is indeed intelligent. By the way, I have something to ask of you.”
David leaned back in his chair, his expression calm: “Tell me.”
Chen Wanqing did not speak immediately, but got up and walked to the window, turning her back to David, and remained silent for a long time.
After a long pause, he slowly spoke:
“Young Master Chen, do you know why the Chen family is holding this martial arts contest to find a husband?”
David thought for a moment: “Isn’t it because you have been stuck at the eighth rank of the Upper Immortal Realm for many years and want to find a Daoist companion to cultivate with so you can break through to that realm?”
Chen Wanqing turned around, looked at him, and smiled bitterly:
“That’s just an excuse. The real goal is…”
He paused for a moment, then spoke slowly and carefully:
“The goal is to find someone who has dragon blood.”
David’s gaze sharpened.
Dragon bloodline?
It is no surprise that there is a paternity test during the assessment.
Chen Wanqing continued, “Three months ago, my Chen family discovered the entrance to the ancient dragon pool.”
“Ancient Dragon Pool?” David frowned slightly.
“Good.”
Chen Wanqing nodded, “According to ancient records, in ancient times, the dragon race once lived near my Yunxian City. The Dragon Pool was a place where dragons bathed, played, and trained. Later, during the war between the gods and demons, the dragon race disappeared, and the Dragon Pool vanished as well, never to be found again.”
He walked back a few steps, sat down opposite David, and stared at him intently:
“Three months ago, an elder of the Chen family was gathering herbs in the mountains north of the city when he accidentally triggered an ancient restriction and discovered a hidden cave. Deep within the cave was the entrance to the Dragon Pool.”
“We tried many times to enter the Dragon Pool, but each time we were blocked by an invisible barrier. There is a restriction left by the dragons on that barrier, and those who are not dragon descendants are not allowed to enter.”
Chen listened quietly without saying a word.
Chen Wanqing looked at him expectantly: “Young Master Chen, you possess the Golden Dragon bloodline and are the emperor of the Dragon Clan. If anyone else in this world can enter the Dragon Pool, it must be you.”
David was silent for a moment, then slowly said, “So, you held this martial arts contest to find a husband just to lure someone with dragon blood?”
“Yes.”
Chen Wanqing didn’t deny it, “The dragon race vanished thousands of years ago, and the dragon bloodline has long been extinct. I thought I would never find someone like this in my lifetime, but I never expected…”
He looked at David, his eyes sparkling with admiration: “I didn’t expect Young Master Chen to come to me of his own accord.”
David didn’t answer, he just looked at her quietly.
Seeing that he remained unfazed, Chen Wanqing bit her lip and said again, “Young Master Chen, I know this request is a bit presumptuous. But the Dragon Pool may contain the dragon clan’s treasures, the dragon clan’s heritage, and even clues to the dragon clan’s whereabouts.”
You have the blood of a golden dragon, don’t you want to know where your lineage comes from? Don’t you want to know why the dragon race disappeared?
David finally spoke: “Miss Chen, what you said does interest me. However…”
He paused for a moment: “Have you ever thought about the situation I am in now?”
Chen Wanqing terkejut.
David continued, “I’m wanted by the Temple, with a bounty of 50,000 bottles of immortal liquid. You heard what Wu Lingyun said when he left. He’ll definitely report me. The Temple will be knocking on our door soon.”
He looked at Chen Wanqing: “Miss Chen, although your Chen family has a strong foundation, can it withstand the power of the temple?”
Chen Wanqing tetap diam.
He knew David was right.
This temple is one of the three major powers in the Fourteen Heavens, and its power is immense.
Although the Chen family had influence in Yunxian City, compared to the temple, their influence was like an egg hitting a rock.
