Chapter 1234 - 1235: There Must Be a Secret
Song Xiaodong laughed heartily and said, "No problem, you tease me, and it makes me happy."
Qi Lanqin stomped her foot shyly and retorted, "I really didn't mean it, and besides, there's not just one bed in this room. I'll sleep outside, and you sleep inside."
Song Xiaodong laughed even more heartily and said, "Ha, Lanqin is already thinking about where to sleep. That's quite a lot going on in her mind."
"Big Brother Song..." Qi Lanqin stretched out her voice, then ran straight into the suite, too embarrassed to face Song Xiaodong.
Song Xiaodong laughed again and said, "Lanqin, I'm going to take a shower. Wait for me."
Song Xiaodong went to the bathroom where the water in the bathtub was already prepared, and the toiletries were all ready for him. Qi Lanqin, as a girl, was also someone very caring.
After freshening up, Song Xiaodong came out and saw Qi Lanqin sitting in the living room. After such a long rest, she was not as embarrassed as before.
Song Xiaodong didn't joke with her anymore and then seriously taught her the way to circulate True Qi.
As the Dragon Gate Princess, Song Xiaodong was also considering recently if she and Feng Kexin might have some unawakened abilities.
However, after checking, there was no True Qi in Qi Lanqin's body, nor any special place discovered, so they could only start teaching from the beginning.
And starting from the beginning, of course, Song Xiaodong hoped she could learn that rotating True Qi directly like Lu Yaobing.
But laying this foundation was indeed not easy, and Qi Lanqin didn't make any progress at first.
After two hours, Qi Lanqin said somewhat dejectedly, "Big Brother Song, am I too stupid? I've never had the feeling you mentioned."
Song Xiaodong smiled and said, "True Qi is something that requires long-term practice to cultivate, and not everyone can cultivate it. Otherwise, wouldn't there be masters everywhere now?"
"But you don't need to worry, I'll definitely have a way to help you learn it in the future."
"What way?" Qi Lanqin asked immediately, "I will definitely work hard and surely learn it."
Song Xiaodong chuckled and winked at Qi Lanqin, saying, "My way is Dual Cultivation."
"Dual Cultivation?" Qi Lanqin repeated, then suddenly blushed and said, "Big Brother Song, you're so bad, trying to trick me again."
Song Xiaodong said very seriously, "I'm not tricking you, it's true. Your sisters at home mostly have True Qi because of Dual Cultivation."
"Ah... There's really such a method?" Qi Lanqin was a bit stunned.
Song Xiaodong nodded and said, "Yes, there is. When we gather the four princesses, then we can do Dual Cultivation."
Qi Lanqin nodded, then suddenly asked, "Big Brother Song, what if we can't gather all four princesses?"
"This..." Song Xiaodong was momentarily stunned and said, "That is a real problem. It's been over twenty years, and if something unexpected really happens, it's not impossible to not find them all."
"Then won't we be able to open the Dragon Gate Treasure?" Qi Lanqin asked.
Song Xiaodong nodded and said, "That should be the case."
"Then does it mean... we can't..." Qi Lanqin said this and blushed again.
Song Xiaodong was momentarily stunned, then chuckled lightly and said, "My dear Lanqin, are you already looking forward to that day?"
Qi Lanqin was embarrassed and said, "Big Brother Song, I didn't mean it like that. I just mean... if we can't gather the four princesses, we can't wait forever, right? Waiting for one or two years, three to five years is fine, but if it takes ten to twenty years, that's quite scary."
Song Xiaodong shook his head and said, "No, I think some people wouldn't let us wait that long either."
"Ah, are you talking about our enemies?" Qi Lanqin suddenly seemed a little panicked.
Song Xiaodong nodded and said, "Yes, our enemies won't give us that much time. I don't know why they haven't moved recently, but I know they definitely won't allow the Dragon Gate to rise again."
Qi Lanqin said more worriedly, "Then what if we can't find the four princesses?"
"Don't be afraid. Once we find the Dragon Gate Treasure, we will have enough funds to rise again. In terms of funds, I've already been accumulating quickly, and I think within two years, even without the Dragon Gate Treasure, I'll have that much funds."
"The second point is our Dragon Gate's strength. Previously, seeing the strength of Dragon Six, Dragon Seven and the others might have made me lack confidence. But in just a few months, I've left them far behind and also helped them improve. As long as we maintain this momentum, once my strength is sufficiently enhanced and we elevate the strength of the Dragon Gate people, we can re-establish a Dragon Gate. What then?"
Qi Lanqin looked at Song Xiaodong with a look of fascination in her eyes and said softly, "Anyway, I will listen to Big Brother Song. Whatever you want me to do, I'll do."
Song Xiaodong clenched his fist and said, "Yes, I will definitely lead you all to reclaim the honor that belongs to us, the Dragon Gate, definitely!"
Qi Lanqin also clenched her fist and said, "I believe in Big Brother Song."
But soon, Qi Lanqin said a little helplessly, "But I don't know how to do anything. I really don't know how I can help."
"Lanqin, I feel... there must be some special secret about you all. Maybe one day, when this secret is revealed, you might soar into the sky."
Qi Lanqin's eyes lit up and she said, "Really?"
Song Xiaodong nodded and said, "Trust me, this feeling of mine isn't wrong."
This was not just comforting Qi Lanqin, but Song Xiaodong's true thoughts. Dragon Gate had gone through great lengths to arrange for him and the four Dragon Gate Princesses and left behind the instruction that they five must unite to open the Dragon Gate Treasure.
This definitely wasn't about just gathering them together, nor only relying on the five Dragon Badges. There must be important reasons on the five individuals themselves.
It's just that Song Xiaodong hasn't yet truly found a Dragon Gate person who knows the inside story. The Dragon Gate people he now has contact with, aside from those like Dragon Six, include only one or two Elder-level figures, but they have yet to pay a visit to Song Xiaodong.
"Lanqin, in a few days, I'll take you and Kexin to pay a visit to the Dragon Gate Elders. We need more information."
Qi Lanqin nodded and said, "Okay, just arrange it, Big Brother Song." Now, she had also developed a great recognition of the Dragon Gate.
