Protect Our Chief

No matter whether it is willing to be surnamed "Wang" or "Liu", it ultimately remains a ninth-order spiritual plant of the Saint Land, with no essential difference.

"Patriarch Shouzhe, I have just recently ascended, and I am quite confused about the outside world. I heard that your Wang Clan Academy offers a good education quality and has a pretty decent living environment," Wang Changsheng eagerly looked at Wang Shouzhe, "I wonder if I might have the honor to join?"

"Well..." Wang Shouzhe quickly stood up and cupped his hands, "Senior Changsheng wishes to reside temporarily with the Wang Clan, Shouzhe would of course welcome that wholeheartedly."

The Longevity Tree showed considerable favor to the Wang Clan, which was a great kindness, and Shouzhe naturally could not refuse. However, to actually request to attend the Clan Academy, Senior Changsheng was looking for trouble.

"Very well, then it’s settled," Wang Changsheng grinned happily.

At this moment, he was completely unaware of the "perils" of the Wang Clan Academy. It was only much later, after he truly underwent the "temperings" of the Clan Academy, recalling today, that he regretted immensely, wishing he could fiercely punish his once "naive" self.

"Shouzhe, after this round of the Struggle for the Saint Son ends, I also want to reside temporarily with the Wang Clan for a while," Changchun Ascendant hurriedly followed up.

Right in front of him, Wang Changsheng and Shouzhe had already started making connections through mutual glances. If left unchecked, it’s feared that the Longevity Tree might stay with the Wang Clan and never return.

"Master, you may stay as long as you wish with our Wang Clan," Wang Shouzhe replied respectfully.

Though Changchun Ascendant gradually could not keep up with the Wang Clan’s first tier in terms of strength, his contributions to the Wang Clan’s development played an indelible role, gratitude that Wang Shouzhe always remembered.

"Good, good. Shouzhe’s filial piety is commendable," Changchun Ascendant said with relief, "The most correct thing I’ve done in my life was accepting you as my named direct disciple."

Now, it was Cyan Pine Zhenren who started twitching his eyelids.

There had been rumors that Great Celestial Pride Lvwei was Wang Shouzhe’s secret concubine, occasionally residing with the Wang Clan, and even Young Clan Leader Zong An was suspected to be her child.

And now, Longzuo Academy’s Eternal Spring Valley seemed ready to be packed up and taken away by the Wang Clan?

So be it.

Let’s discuss Lvwei’s participation in the Struggle for the Saint Son.

Cyan Pine Zhenren shifted the topic, speaking gently to Junior Sister Lvwei, "Lvwei, I know you prefer quiet and only wish to focus on research. But during your growth, our Qinghuang Valley has always fully supported you. Our Cyan Emperor Valley has been weak for a long time; you at least need to help us gain some prestige in this Struggle for the Saint Son, earning our Cyan Emperor Lineage some face back. Of course, securing a position as Saintess would be even better."

Junior Sister Lvwei said lazily, "It’s not that I’m unwilling to exert myself, it’s just that Yaoyao is too formidable. You have no idea what she’s truly capable of. Although over the years, my bloodline talent has inexplicably grown, it’s still only Great Celestial Pride Grade A, quite far from being unparalleled, and it would be embarrassing to barely participate."

"Don’t worry about that," Cyan Pine Zhenren became spirited, "Looking across the Nine Veins of the Saint Land, though our Qinghuang Valley ranks second last in combat strength, in terms of wealth, hehe~ even tying up the other eight veins wouldn’t suffice."

In Cyan Pine Zhenren’s view, only the Nanming Li Fire Lineage and Heaven and Earth Profound Pill Lineage could earn and save some money, while the other veins were composed of spendthrifts who sold their ancestors’ fields without hesitation.

Especially the lineage from which Saint Master Jiang emerged — the Taiyi Golden Yang Lineage — was a group who only knew how to spend and not earn, always liking to carry double hands on maps, thinking of themselves as possessing the world.

"Over the years, we haven’t had many other expenses in Qinghuang Valley but have accumulated substantial reserves," Cyan Pine Zhenren said with pride, "If you wish to fight, we will fully support you. In the future, we could see Qinghuang Valley becoming the main vein of the Saint Land."

"If that’s the case," Junior Sister Lvwei reluctantly said, "I can give it a try, but I can’t promise victory, as the opponents this time are truly challenging."

"No problem, show off the prestige of our Cyan Emperor Lineage," Cyan Pine Zhenren smiled, "Moreover, this time our investment won’t be wasted; Lvwei, with your unparalleled Celestial Pride talent inheriting the Cyan Emperor Valley lineage, you will surely gain Great Chūn’s recognition. At that time, there’s even a chance you could forge an alternate path and achieve the Path to Emptiness."

Hearing this, Wang Shouzhe nearby couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

This time, the threshold for the Struggle for the Saint Son was indeed getting higher. It feels as though if one isn’t an unrivaled Celestial Pride, there’s no necessity to even compete.

Junior Sister Lvwei isn’t a simple character either. Her inherently hidden gene of madness makes even Wang Shouzhe feel fearful.

This time, whether it’s Lixian or Yingxuan, they will face a greater challenge.

The Struggle for the Saint Son will be even more unpredictable.
