Dragon's Origin

Chapter 414: Grandmaster's Concern (Part 2)

Of course, there's nothing strange about that.

Tantai Yao knew the Grandmaster's identity because Wang Sheng had just told her in the Wang residence. As soon as the Grandmaster entered the Wang residence, Wang Sheng had already noticed him. Familiarity with the unique spiritual power fluctuations made it easier for Wang Sheng to determine a person's identity.

Knowing that the Grandmaster was coming, Wang Sheng instructed Tantai Yao and the women to prepare to receive the distinguished guest. Of course, Wang Sheng also mentioned the Grandmaster's identity.

As for why the Grandmaster knew Tantai Yao, it was perfectly normal. When Tantai Yao arrived in Worry-Free City, the guards of Worry-Free City were all disciples of the Old Monarch Temple. They rushed all the way to the capital, escorted by disciples of the Old Monarch Temple along the way. There were also a large number of Old Monarch Temple disciples guarding the Marquis's residence. It was too easy to know Tantai Yao's identity.

If it were in the past, an Elder Hall Master of Triumph Palace might have been worth the Grandmaster's personal reception during a formal meeting. That's right, it was a reception. Even at that time, the identities of the two were unequal. And that would have to be when the Grandmaster was in a good mood.

As for now, the Elder Hall Master of Triumph Palace, which has already lost its country and sect, is just an ordinary person in the Grandmaster's eyes. If it weren't for Wang Sheng's relationship, and setting aside the identity of a legendary master, if Tantai Yao wanted to see the Grandmaster, she would probably only be able to catch a glimpse of him from afar in the crowded Old Monarch Temple Dharma Assembly.

However, because of Wang Sheng's sake, Tantai Yao was able to meet this great figure, whose power was almost comparable to that of the Son of Heaven, in a tea pavilion outside the Wang residence. Her heart was already filled with excitement.

Not only Tantai Yao, but all the women in the Wang residence were actually in the same excited mood. In addition to the excitement, there was also deep gratitude.

Because Tantai Yao had told Wang Sheng on behalf of the women that they would not actively invite any man other than Wang Sheng into the Marquis's residence. It was another matter if the Grandmaster came uninvited and the women's cultivation was insufficient to detect it. However, Wang Sheng took the Grandmaster of the Old Monarch Temple to a simple tea pavilion outside the Wang residence because of their willful request, without even going to the living room of the Wang residence.

Previously, Wang Sheng had shown enough trust in the women, which could be said to be absolute trust, entrusting his life to them. Now, Wang Sheng gave them respect that even they themselves could not imagine.

You must know that that was the head of Wang Sheng's own sect, the leader of the world's Taoist sect! That was giving not just face, but everything!

Tantai Yao was very smart. She never positioned herself as the master. Even as a guest, she was the kind of guest who knew how to read the situation. For example, now, after taking the women to pay their respects to the Grandmaster, Tantai Yao directly regarded herself and the dozen or so beauties as maids, standing obediently around, ready to serve the Grandmaster and Wang Sheng tea at any time.

"You've settled them very well, Elder," the Grandmaster said without any pretense, accepting such an identity very naturally. In fact, no matter how high a person's status was, the Grandmaster could treat them with a normal heart. This was the foundation of Taoism, and also the Grandmaster's own cultivation.

"They are all a group of respectable and admirable people who are struggling for their lives. I admire them very much." Even in front of the Grandmaster, Wang Sheng did not change his view of the women.

Encountering misfortune was encountering misfortune, but after encountering misfortune, instead of accepting fate or obeying, they tried every means to resist. Such people were worthy of admiration, regardless of whether the result of the resistance was success or failure. What Wang Sheng valued was not success or failure, but whether they had an active attitude of resistance.

"Well, then take good care of them," the Grandmaster nodded. The Grandmaster was much more skilled than Wang Sheng in this kind of art of controlling subordinates. A single sentence could both win Wang Sheng's loyalty and win himself goodwill.

Didn't you see that the dozen or so beauties around him already had tears in their eyes after just a few words?

"After you're done with the matters here, go back to the Old Monarch Temple," the Grandmaster's main purpose this time was to see if Wang Sheng was really lost in the beauty of women. After discovering the truth, he was no longer worried. After giving a word of advice and taking two sips of tea, he left overnight.

It wasn't until Wang Sheng's senses could no longer perceive the Grandmaster's trace that Wang Sheng turned back. The Grandmaster's personal trip really made Wang Sheng feel grateful. How many opportunities would a dignified Taoist leader have to personally come forward? This was also why Wang Sheng felt more and more belonging to the Old Monarch Temple.

"Let's go, let's go back!" Tantai Yao and the dozen or so beauties were still waiting with lanterns. Wang Sheng smiled at the women and gave an order. The group collectively returned to the Wang residence.

Wang Sheng slept very soundly that night. When sleeping, Wang Sheng had deliberately closed his senses. Unless he was within the confines of the bedroom, Wang Sheng would sense any movement. Otherwise, with Wang Sheng's keen senses, he would never be able to sleep peacefully at any time.

When he got up in the morning, Wang Sheng found that the atmosphere was not right. There were many people outside the bedroom door. The aura and movements were all familiar people, all the women in the Wang residence, but what were they all planning to do by gathering here?

With the help of two beauties who were responsible for serving him, Wang Sheng put on his clothes, walked to the door and opened it, and then saw the women kneeling densely on the open space in front of the bedroom.

The beauties in the bedroom were no exception. When Wang Sheng walked to the door and opened it, they had already knelt down on the ground with their companions outside, their foreheads touching the ground, extremely devout.

As soon as he saw this posture, Wang Sheng knew what it was for. It was still the aftermath of the Grandmaster's visit yesterday, but it was a great thing for Wang Sheng. These women had unconditionally surrendered their hearts. For their willful request, Wang Sheng had even turned away the Grandmaster of the Old Monarch Temple, the leader of the world's Taoist sect. What could repay such grace?

Kneeling were not only the beauties of the Triumph Palace Hidden Hall, but also those beautiful masters. Except for those on duty as guards, everyone was kneeling here. Including Tantai Yao and Sister Rose, the two of them were kneeling in the front.

"Get up!" Wang Sheng shouted in a low voice: "I have released you from your servitude, I have agreed to your various requests, and I have worked hard to discover your respective strengths, not to make you kneel in front of me. You have endured and persevered for so long, and finally waited for the destruction of Triumph Palace, and it is also not to kneel in front of another person. Stand up!"

"Marquis, we are deeply grateful for your great kindness!" Tantai Yao spoke on behalf of the women: "Marquis, please accept our worship!" Before Wang Sheng could say anything, Sister Rose had already spoken ahead of her: "This is only once, and we will never kneel to anyone again!"

Hundreds of beauties, in front of and behind Wang Sheng, knelt down and straightened up, and then bowed heavily to Wang Sheng. Everyone's forehead made a clear "dong" sound, showing their determination.
