A man from the Big Dipper, starting his charlatanship at Mount Tai.

However, all the sacred scriptures and such in the Dragon Nest... posed a bit of a challenge for her.

"Does Your Highness think a single Imperial Scripture isn't worth the price?" Lin Xiu asked with a smile.

Princess Wanlong shook her head:

"No, the Imperial Scripture is extremely precious. Even a hundred scriptures written by sages cannot compare to one Imperial Scripture."

"I just feel that making such demands is somewhat unfair to the ancient race of the Myriad Dragon Nest..."

The ancient clan of Wanlong Nest—those were her beloved relatives and brothers! ...It costs extra!

Chapter 294 What's so great about saving the princess? If you're going to save someone, save her father!

"I see~"

Lin Xiu's smile remained unchanged. Of course, he knew that Princess Wanlong wanted to use this opportunity to lower the price or exchange for more things.

But it doesn't matter anyway.

The Taihuang Scripture was originally bait he offered to Princess Wanlong. As long as Princess Wanlong was willing to ask, a lower price was acceptable.

What benefits can one gain from Princess Wanlong?

If you're going to try to salvage something, try to salvage her father!

A few seconds later, Lin Xiu nodded, looking as if he had been successfully persuaded by the Princess of Ten Thousand Dragons.

“What the princess says is true. It is indeed a bit inappropriate to ask them for scriptures after we just asked for their essence blood.”

"However, I do need their scriptures..."

"How about this, I'll raise the price."

"Besides the Supreme Emperor Scripture, I can also have the princess visit me from time to time to see the True Dragon Elixir of Immortality, so as to help the princess attain the Dao and become an emperor as soon as possible!"

Princess Wanlong: "......"

Princess Wanlong pursed her red lips slightly to suppress the urge to smile.

Now that's great! We can obtain the fruit of the elixir of immortality and use it to comprehend the Great Dao at any time... How is this any different from having the elixir of immortality ourselves?

win!

Of course, although she was very happy, Princess Wanlong still put on a very troubled look, and with her barely suppressed smile, Lin Xiu couldn't help but frown repeatedly.

Sigh~ I can't control my smile like this anymore, Princess Wanlong still needs to practice~

......

After finally managing to suppress her lip movements, Princess Wanlong coughed lightly:

Okay~

"Since Brother Lin is so sincere, I should not let him down."

"Qianlun, go and collect the scriptures!"

After saying that, Princess Wanlong turned to look at Great Sage Qianlun, as if to ask Qianlun to run an errand again.

Qianlun the Great Sage: "....."

The Great Sage Qianlun's lips twitched slightly. Running errands twice in one day, both times for a human being. Didn't this Great Sage have any dignity?

Also, why does he feel like something's not quite right?

If the princess frequently seeks to comprehend the True Dragon's Elixir of Immortality, wouldn't that mean she'd have to see this human often? ...Won't the princess be corrupted by this human?

However... he couldn't say anything about something that hadn't happened.

After all, who would have thought that Lin Xiu wanted to use the gold coins of the Dragon Queen to kill the Dragon Queen?

"okay, I get it."

"If I can help the princess achieve enlightenment, I will do my utmost."

Qianlun sighed helplessly and shook the Wanlong Bell again.

"Ring ring!"

The bell of the myriad dragons rang again, and the voice of the Great Sage Qianlun once more resounded throughout the myriad dragon nest.

"All races belonging to the Dragon Nest, heed my command!"

"Send me a copy of all the scriptures you have studied that are at the Saint level or above!"

These words caused another uproar at Wanlongchao.

"What? Scriptures? Those are the very foundation of our race!"

"What's wrong with the Great Sage today? First it was his essence and blood, then the scriptures—is he trying to extract his marrow and bones?!"

"I've heard that the princess plans to use this opportunity to exchange scriptures from other royal families?"

"But... we can't decide on the scriptures ourselves! Giving away the scriptures would violate ancestral teachings!"

Seeing that very few people were willing to take the initiative, the Great Sage Qianlun snorted coldly.

"This is an order, not a discussion."

"I only want you to provide a scripture that can no longer be passed on; I will not allow your scripture to be leaked!"

.......

With the arrival of the Great Sage's majesty and promise, the murmurs immediately subsided.

Okay, if we don't spread it around, that seems like it'll work?

According to what some old man said before, the people who exchanged the scriptures were also members of the royal family of the human race. They probably didn't care about their sacred scriptures and at most intended to use them to comprehend them.

A quarter of an hour later, scrolls of scriptures flew in from all parts of the Dragon Nest.

Some were engraved on animal hides, some were inscribed on jade slips, and some were branded on bone fragments; they varied in shape and material.

The only thing they have in common is that... they are all at least at the level of sacred scriptures.

With a wave of his hand, the Great Sage Qianlun summoned dozens or even hundreds of scriptures inscribed with the divine imprints of different races, which then gathered together and flew toward Lin Xiu.

“Young human friend, here is the scripture you requested. Please examine it.”

"Haha~ Thank you for your help, Great Sage!"

Lin Xiu waved his hand and put all these scriptures into the altar between his eyebrows.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Xiu threw them into the Dao Rhyme Space in batches, using them as auxiliary materials for the evolution of the Dao Rhyme Space.

After a few breaths, Lin Xiu nodded in satisfaction and raised his hand to cast a golden sword-shaped mark.

"Your Highness, here is the Imperial Scripture you requested."

Princess Wanlong reached out and caught the golden sword, eagerly beginning to study it.

A few breaths later, she opened her purple eyes, a flash of understanding appearing in them.

She lacked the Daoist space, which prevented her from mastering an imperial scripture in a few breaths, but she did gain some basic understanding of the true meaning of the Supreme Emperor Scripture.

She discovered that the human race's dragon path and her dragon race's dragon path, though seemingly similar, were actually quite different.

The Dragon Clan's Dragon Path emphasizes bloodline inheritance, physical dominance, using strength to overcome skill, and focuses on cultivating an invincible individual.

While the Taihuang Scripture of the human race also follows the path of dragons, it incorporates the concept of humanity.

The imperial way and dragon aura, the emperor in front, the dragon behind... humans control the dragon, not the other way around, focusing on cultivating an invincible "power".

"I see……"

Princess Wanlong nodded repeatedly, her purple eyes shining even brighter.

She never imagined that the Dragon Path could be cultivated in this way.

Although this idea contradicted the beliefs she had been taught since childhood, it did open a new door for her.

If one can use the emperor's philosophy from the Taihuang Scripture to nourish one's own dragon path cultivation...

Perhaps, she can forge a new path different from that of Wanlonghuang!

........

As a daughter of the ancient royal family, Princess Wanlong, like other imperial princes and princesses, also wanted to avoid the path of her fathers and forge her own.

Lin Xiu's appearance not only gave her access to the scriptures of a human emperor who cultivated the Dragon Path, but also gave her the opportunity to comprehend the True Dragon Immortal Elixir, just like in the Primordial Era. Although it was done under the guise of a transaction, it was undoubtedly a testament to how much he valued her!

After all, it was she who truly cultivated the Dragon Path! Not Lin Xiu! Even if Lin Xiu obtained the scriptures of the Myriad Dragon Emperor, how much use could he possibly have? Could he possibly be stronger than her?

If she were in the position, she would never have given such a fitting scripture to her greatest enemy on the path to the throne!

The thought that she had only just been born and yet was already so highly regarded by a fellow member of the royal family, the Princess of Ten Thousand Dragons couldn't help but let out a soft hum.

"Brother Lin, thank you very much~"

"I will certainly live up to your expectations, break the curse as soon as possible, and become an emperor!"

Princess Wanlong sheathed the golden sword-shaped mark, suppressed her smile, and solemnly performed an ancient ritual towards Lin Xiu.

Although her relationship with Lin Xiu was a transaction and there was no need for her to do this, as she said, the Taihuang Scripture was just too suitable for her.

Lin Xiu knew this, yet he still took the initiative to make a deal with her...

She deeply admired such magnanimity.

She will certainly not fail to live up to such high regard!

.......

Ye Fan swallowed hard as he watched the Princess Wanlong's attitude change drastically.

Good heavens, is this still the same fat purple-haired woman who said she would cut him into a thousand pieces?

Master Lin's deceptive skills are truly unprecedented and unparalleled!

However... perhaps only the flattery of someone like Master Lin could please Princess Wanlong.

After all, Master Lin first utterly defeated the Great Sage Qianlun with several Emperor-level weapons, then won the battle for the Elixir of Immortality with Princess Wanlong, planting the seed in Princess Wanlong's mind that "this is a prodigy no weaker than her, or even stronger than her," before his flattery and deception were so effective.

If I did that... that purple-haired fat woman would just take it for granted.

Ye Fan sighed and shook his head.

Hey~
