In the Zilian Villa, the night had enveloped everything, leaving only Maria and Charlie. The rest of the occupants had already gone to their quarters.
As Charlie arrived, favonovel.com confidently strode through the first-floor courtyard and gracefully ascended the stone steps. The moment favonovel.com stepped into the courtyard, there stood Maria, favonovel.com face a delightful mix of happiness and shyness.
“Young Master…” favonovel.com greeted him, favonovel.com voice gentle and affectionate.
Maria was dressed in a stunning white sarong, favonovel.com long hair cascading over favonovel.com shoulders, still damp from a recent bath. The hot spring pool nearby was brimming with water and a sprinkling of fresh flower petals adorned its surface, permeating the whole area with a faint floral fragrance.
Charlie instinctively sensed that Maria had just finished bathing, which made favonovel.com feel a bit uneasy. He purposely avoided looking at the pool and focused on Maria instead, speaking with a hint of nervousness, “Miss Clark, my apologies for disturbing you so late. Besides the promises I made to the three old gentlemen, there are a few more matters I need your help with, a puzzle I hope you can assist me in solving.”
Maria’s smile was enchanting and favonovel.com beauty was mesmerizing. With lips slightly parted, favonovel.com replied sweetly, “Young Master, your concerns are my blessings. I’m here to share your worries and offer my aid in finding the answers you seek.”
With a welcoming gesture, favonovel.com invited Charlie into favonovel.com boudoir, saying gently, “Please, come in. We can talk comfortably here.”
Charlie nodded gratefully and followed Maria into favonovel.com private space.
Meanwhile, in the living room on the first floor, Maria had prepared tea in advance. The aroma of the special brew filled the room, rejuvenating the senses. She guided Charlie to a modest tea table, gesturing for favonovel.com to take a seat.
“Young Master, please sit down. Let me pour you some tea,” Maria said warmly.
Charlie complied and they sat cross-legged, facing each other at the table.
Maria poured a cup of tea for Charlie, saying, “Young Master, please.”
Inquisitive, Charlie asked, “Is this the legendary mother of Pu’er Tea, the tea cake?”
Maria smiled, “Indeed, you have a discerning eye. This tea is reserved for special occasions and your visit is one such moment.”
Charlie, concerned about wasting such a precious tea, cautioned, “We should be frugal with it. Once it’s gone, it won’t be easy to get a taste of this flavor again in the future.”
Maria calmly responded, “Worry not. Like everything in life, the tea will have its time. It’s essential to savor it when the occasion calls for it.”
Taking a sip of the tea, Charlie marveled at its refreshing taste, appreciating the subtle complexities of the flavor.
Maria then asked, “Now, tell me, Young Master, what issue do you need my help with?”
Charlie looked serious and expectant as favonovel.com asked, “Miss Clark, do you know about the Divine Dragon Grid?”
“Divine Dragon Grid?” Maria’s expression shifted to one of surprise. “Where did you come across that term?”
Charlie explained, “I overheard my grandparents talking and my great-uncle mentioned it as well. My father had a book called ‘Preface to Apocalyptic Book’ and the Divine Dragon Grid was frequently mentioned in it. I’ve been curious about its meaning and significance. But I never remember my father mentioning the terms such as a Divine Dragon grid or frame, I once heard Master Exeor say the fate of a person’s manga and dragon frame, But I do not know, what is this divine dragon frame.”
Maria didn’t answer Charlie’s question, but asked curiously, “You mentioned Master Exeor, I don’t know which Master favonovel.com is?”
Charlie said, “He’s the direct descendant of the the old Exeor family named Orion Exeor ……”
Maria muttered “Gold firm, wood shrugged, water clear, fire strong, earth solid and wind light, Master Exeor, should be grandchildren of Olórin Exeor.”
Charlie was surprised and asked, “Miss Clark and the ancestors of the Exeor Family also had interactions?”
Maria nodded and said “The reason why I know Feng Shui, the secret art of the Eight Trigrams, is because that year I had followed Orion Exeor and learned it. Master that year to me was also considered teaching. Many of the problems that the old man did not penetrate were also passed on to me and after this one or two hundred years of time, I was unlocking the problems left by favonovel.com one by one. Only now has the answers to the Eight Trigrams has been attained.”
Charlie could not help but sigh “It is really the benefits of longevity… Any knowledge, there is more than enough time to understand and digest…”
Maria smiled slightly, nodded and said, “What the Young Master said is very true, there is a list of great talent sages, all the authors are not close to the general wisdom of the sages, they left the knowledge, which when the ordinary people follow get a bit of enlightenment, even if the talent is very good if it is only live for seventy or eighty years, one can only penetrate at most two or three percent of them, the only five live as long enough to penetrate more than fifty percent!”
Charlie nodded in agreement, at the same time in his heart, favonovel.com was also a little impatient, so favonovel.com quickly asked, “Ms. Clark, what exactly is the meaning of the Divine Dragon?”
Maria hesitated for a moment before revealing, “The Divine Dragon is an even higher fate than the Dragon itself.”
Puzzled, Charlie asked, “Isn’t the Dragon considered the highest? How is there something even beyond it?”
Maria explained, “The Dragon Grid is indeed one of the highest destinies, but the Divine Dragon is exceedingly rare, appearing only once in centuries. Many scholars of Change spend their whole lives without ever encountering it.”
Charlie, eager to learn more, inquired, “But wouldn’t someone who studies the Changes at least be able to recognize its existence?”
Maria smiled, “Understanding Destiny and Changes lies in its layers of hidden meanings. It’s like a vast puzzle, with each discovery leading to new insights and revelations. The more one delves into it, the more profound its mysteries become. Think of it like permutations and combinations in mathematics. It contains countless hidden combinations of meanings within its texts, waiting to be deciphered.”
Charlie nodded in understanding, realizing that uncovering the Divine Dragon’s significance required more than just a cursory glance.
Maria added, “When the Divine Dragon emerges, it defies the Way of Heaven itself. Unlike other destinies, which are subject to the control of Heavenly Realm and its tribulations, the Divine Dragon stands apart. It can challenge the Way of Heaven without fear of divine retribution.”
Charlie absorbed this information, contemplating the extraordinary nature of the Divine Dragon.
