Chapter 615 203 Moon God: Hurry and reply, great danger is upon you!_3
Ao Qing was also stunned.
"In that case, it should be possible, right?" Wang Mu asked. "Your Majesty Dragon King, could you please explain in detail how to remove the Five-Colored Divine Gold?"
The Old Dragon King took several deep breaths, staring intently at Wang Mu. For a moment, he didn't know what to say. Generally speaking, divine artifacts of such caliber cannot be possessed by anyone other than those with great Qi Fortune. In Li State, despite many years of legends and no shortage of brilliantly talented cultivators, no one had ever been reported to own such an item. That this little cultivator could actually obtain it... was simply... preposterous...
"Father, you should hurry up and tell him," Ao Qing urged. "How do I remove the Five-Colored Divine Gold from my body using this Resting Soil? Don't make a mess of things..."
The Old Dragon King sighed and said, "If you have this item, then it's naturally simple. Attach the Resting Soil to the center of your palm and lightly touch Qing'er's Reversed Scale, and the Five-Colored Divine Gold will naturally fall off..."
Wang Mu nodded, finding the process quite straightforward.
"However, the place where the Reversed Scale is located is a crucial part of our Dragon Clan..." the Old Dragon King said. "It's up to Qing'er whether she's willing to tell you where it is and let you touch it..."
After speaking, the Old Dragon King waved his hand in a resigned gesture and walked away, appearing dejected.
The middle-aged woman followed him, trying to console him, "Perhaps this is destined... Qing'er and he aren't fated for each other, you don't need to force it too much..."
The Old Dragon King stayed silent until he walked out of the courtyard. Only then did the sorrow on his face quickly dissipate. He then lightly tapped the void, and a water screen appeared. It showed the scene of Wang Mu and Ao Qing in the garden pavilion behind the Dragon Palace.
"What are you getting at?"
"Just watch," the Old Dragon King said confidently.
"Was all that you just did an act?" the middle-aged woman said exasperatedly. "What are you up to?"
"Heh..." The Old Dragon King chuckled and replied, "To be honest, I really hadn't expected this youngster to actually have Resting Soil. That really saves me the effort."
"What do you mean?"
"Fool," the Old Dragon King whispered. "The way I talked just now, I never actually intended to let him and Qing'er marry. This little cultivator is stubborn. He would risk venturing into the Sea Abyss rather than choose an easier, more straightforward way of obtaining the Five-Colored Divine Gold. It shows that once he's convinced of something, it's extremely difficult to change his mind."
"Naturally, he wouldn't marry Qing'er just to remove the Five-Colored Divine Gold."
"My original plan was just to get the two of them a little closer. With that bit of intimacy, feelings would slowly develop and, in time, things would naturally fall into place."
"But what you just said..."
"Humans," the Old Dragon King said with a serene smile. "Most take the middle path. He'd certainly be reluctant if I directly asked him to marry Qing'er for the Five-Colored Divine Gold. But if it's just to remove the Five-Colored Divine Gold by touching Qing'er's Reversed Scale, comparing the two options makes the latter much easier for him to accept."
"Our Dragon Clan's Reversed Scale cannot be known or touched by someone who isn't intimate."
"As long as Qing'er lets him touch the Reversed Scale, their relationship from that point on will be difficult to gauge..."
"I was originally going to wait until he was out of options. Then I would reveal the Secret Technique I sealed long ago, allowing him to remove the Five-Colored Divine Gold from Qing'er's Reversed Scale. I didn't expect this little cultivator to actually have a divine artifact like Nine Heavens Breath Soil. That's also perfect."
"..." The middle-aged woman moved her lips.
This old fellow...
"Now we just need to watch and wait..." said the Old Dragon King. "Besides, as I've said before, the Five-Colored Divine Gold was left with Qing'er to protect her Reversed Scale. Now that he's about to remove it, how would you feel if you were in her place?"
"A bit guilty? If anything happens to Qing'er later on, wouldn't he blame himself?"
"Exactly!" said the Old Dragon King. "At least until Qing'er undergoes her Crossing Tribulation, he will definitely feel a sense of concern for her."
"..." The middle-aged woman was silent.
"Concern, intimacy, the Reversed Scale, touch—when these elements combine," the Old Dragon King, rich in experience, said, "feelings are just a matter of time."
"So when you said back then that you had to touch my Reversed Scale to save me, was this the idea?"
"...Cough cough, back then I didn't think that much..."
「The Old Dragon King had left.」
Back on the scene, only Ao Qing and Wang Mu remained.
"When I reveal my true form..." Ao Qing said softly, looking down. "I'll then tell you where the Reversed Scale is, and you can remove it yourself."
Wang Mu pondered for a few seconds, considering his experience with the Love Saint ending.
The Old Dragon King was clearly playing tricks.
Although he wasn't of the Dragon Clan, Reversed Scales, being such a special part, would definitely not be something ordinary people could touch.
If touched, it would inevitably lead to an intimate relationship.
In the game, this was a crucial point in conquering the female lead.
Setting aside how he would feel about Ao Qing, she would probably never forget the first person who touched her Reversed Scale.
With this factor in play, the future was truly uncertain.
But the cleverness of the Old Dragon King's scheme lay in the fact that you couldn't avoid it...
Even if you knew about it, it was useless.
Unless you didn't want the Five-Colored Divine Gold.
At this moment, Ao Qing said, "You don't need to overthink it. This Five-Colored Divine Gold is something my father promised you. There's no need for you to feel any burden about taking it from me, as I do not require this item for protection."
"Qing'er is a natural!" The Old Dragon King, watching the scene in the water screen and hearing these words, immediately praised her. "The more she says things like this, the heavier the care in the youngster's heart will be after he removes the Five-Colored Divine Gold. Impressive, impressive!"
"What Qing'er is doing is sincere," said the middle-aged woman. "She really means what she says, unlike you, old fellow, who's just acting."
"Sincerity is what moves the human heart," the Old Dragon King said with a smile. "Humans can't resist sincerity. Acting always has flaws. But with such purely sincere words, he won't find any fault in them."
