Chapter: 6196

Ye Cian teased: "I think you're just being polite to me again?"

"There is no need," Lin Wan'er blushed: "I've said it before - as long as Master Ye opens his mouth, whatever I want, I'll give up."

After saying this, she quickly shifted the topic and asked: "By the way, Lord Zhou has come back with you, hasn't he?"

"Not yet," Ye Cian said. "Lord Zhou will wait for two days to go to the Northern League with Her Majesty Helena first, then return to our country."

Lin Wan'er nodded lightly and asked again: "When Master sees him this time, does he have any answers to dispel Master's doubts?"

After a moment, Ye Cian's expression turned melancholic, and he sighed, saying: "He explained to me what the ascendant dragon stage was, just like Lin Miss guessed, it's not something that's born with. It's actually someone removing their own dragon mark and giving it to another person, who then gains the blessing of both dragons, which is the ascendant dragon stage..."

Lin Wan'er asked in amazement: "How does one achieve this ascendant dragon stage?"

Ye Cian lowered his head and muttered: "The ascendant dragon stage... It's when someone removes their own dragon mark and gives it to another person, who then gains the blessing of both dragons..."

Ye Cian's words didn't shock Lin Wan'er too much.

She just took a few seconds to process what he said, and then spoke softly: "This logic is something I had guessed when I was making assumptions, but couldn't confirm. Now it seems to make sense... The dragon mark is one of a kind among all living things, and not everyone who has the dragon mark can have children with the same abilities. On the contrary, the probability of their offspring inheriting the dragon mark is extremely low, and even more so if they need to willingly remove their own dragon mark for their child... Considering this, I think it's very difficult to find another person besides Prince who can achieve the ascendant dragon stage..."

Ye Cian asked curiously: "Are the children of the dragon mark not necessarily also a dragon mark?"

"It's certainly true," Lin Wan'er nodded, opening her mouth to say: "Prince should consider this, as his innate abilities are absolute. His fate is determined, and he will always possess stronger abilities and more production resources in any environment... In the past when polygamy was common, men with the dragon mark would have multiple wives and children. If all their offspring also had the dragon mark, the world would be flooded with dragons, causing chaos..."

As she spoke, Lin Wan'er added: "Actually, a person's innate abilities are determined not only by their parents' innate abilities but also by their own numerology and circumstances. It's like randomly drawing a number from 1 to 100 - you need to get all 100 correct in order to achieve the ascendant dragon stage... The probability is extremely low if his father has the dragon mark, equivalent to not needing 100 consecutive correct answers. At least 80 would be required, which is still as difficult to achieve as climbing a mountain."

"And besides, in this world, it's possible that there aren't even five people with the same dragon mark at the same time. The probability of their children having the dragon mark is already near zero. Looking back over the long history of China, I'm afraid there may only be one person like Prince who has a father with the dragon mark and also has it themselves. At least, this old servant has lived for so many years, read countless ancient texts, and never heard anything like this before."

Ye Cian couldn't help but feel nostalgic: "I had never thought about this question before, thinking that the fate was inherited, turns out I'm not well-informed at all."

Lin Wan'er smiled and said: "Prince doesn't need to be too hard on himself. In fact, most people don't even know what their fate is until they die."

As she spoke, Lin Wan'er couldn't help but wonder: "This old servant has lived for so many years, studied the mysteries of Feng Shui and the Eight Trigrams, but never heard that one's fate could be removed. What kind of technique did my lord learn to remove his fate?"

Ye Cian said: "It's probably due to the 'Nine Heaven Treatise'."

As he spoke, he looked a bit puzzled and said: "That Uncle Zhou left behind a photocopied version of the 'Nine Heaven Treatise', and I have it here. But I haven't adjusted my mental state to study it yet."

After that, Ye Cian took out the photocopy of the 'Nine Heaven Treatise' from his backpack and placed it on the tea table, opening his mouth to say: "These are the contents of the 'Nine Heaven Treatise', but I haven't looked at them yet."

Lin Wan'er glanced at the photocopied book and nodded understandingly, saying: "My lord's fate is because of a sudden change caused by the 'Nine Heaven Treatise'. Prince didn't prepare well either, which is normal. If it were me, I would probably burn the photocopy to ashes and never touch it again."

Ye Cian looked serious and said: "Actually, I'm not unprepared; I'm just a little scared."

(The word "scared" was extremely rare for Ye Cian to say out loud.)

But facing Lin Wan'er, he could reveal his innermost thoughts without any reservation, saying everything that was on his mind.

Lin Wan'er heard Ye Cian say he was afraid and couldn't help but be surprised. She quickly asked in concern: "Don't you think it's willing to tell me, young master? What are you afraid of?" JrNovels.com
