Protect Our Chief

Chapter 1265 - 16: Is the Struggle for the Saint Son Just a Test?

Seeing Wang Shouzhe seriously calculating there, Cyan Pine Zhenren suddenly found it hard to keep smiling.

He said nervously, "Elder Hongyu, please don’t be like this. You are the Vein-Suppressing Spirit Plant of Cyan Emperor Valley, how can you casually follow others?"

"Shouzhe is not just anyone; hasn’t he also cultivated the Cyan Emperor True Technique?" Peach Red Jade argued earnestly.

"Although that may be true, Shouzhe is ultimately the Master of the Noble Family, and his finances and loyalties are separate from our Cyan Emperor Valley." Cyan Pine Zhenren said, resignedly.

Earlier, he had already felt that the Eternal Spring Valley from Longzuo Academy was almost becoming Wang Shouzhe’s. Now it seems, the bad situation is even worse than imagined. Is Shouzhe here to empty the bottom of Cyan Emperor Valley’s pockets?

"Young Cyan Pine, you got it wrong." Great Chun sternly criticized, stroking his beard, "We few old folks indeed followed past Valley Masters of Cyan Emperor Valley. Considering the past kindness of our former master and the beneficial environment offered by Cyan Emperor Valley, we stayed here. But that doesn’t mean we’re sold to Cyan Emperor Valley for life."

"Moreover, over the years we have been contributing to Cyan Emperor Valley using Lifebound Great Divine Techniques. Just take my Great Divine Technique ’Spring Blossoms and Autumn Fruits’ which has accelerated the growth of countless Spiritual Medicine, Spirit Valley, and Spirit Fruits for Cyan Emperor Valley. This is a win-win outcome."

"We promised our master back then to protect Cyan Emperor Valley, but realistically we aren’t tied to Cyan Emperor Valley for life. We are inherently free, and leaving can’t be perceived as betrayal, can it?"

"Yes, yes, Elder Chun’s teachings are correct. You certainly have the freedom to leave. However, considering the lineage of Emperor Valley ancestors... you can’t just walk away entirely, right?" Cyan Pine Zhenren was sweating on his forehead, struggling to maintain his carefree demeanor.

If Peach Red Jade leaves, Cyan Emperor Valley would suffer a huge loss at most. But should Great Chun leave, then the foundation of Cyan Emperor Valley would half disappear instantly.

"Don’t worry, young Cyan Pine." Great Chun said, "I know it’s not easy to establish the foundation of Cyan Emperor Valley, so I won’t leave carelessly. But since Miss Xian’Er is born, and fatefully ended up with an unreliable father..."

As he spoke, he couldn’t help but glare at Wang Shouzhe before continuing: "Someone needs to take care of the young lady; otherwise, I won’t be at ease. How about this, my main body stays in Cyan Emperor Valley, and my avatar stays by Miss Xian’Er to protect her growth. That’s decided."

"Elder Chun’s idea isn’t bad." Peach Red Jade also praised, "I’ll leave my avatar with Young Master Shouzhe, no, Miss Xian’Er as well. I specialize in cooking various Spirit Plants and Fierce Beasts, ensuring that they both are well-nourished."

"This... is a good idea after all." Although Cyan Pine Zhenren felt extremely wronged, he realized there was no room for negotiation with the words of these two spirit plant elders.

Oh well~ just losing two avatars is better than losing the entire main bodies.

He forced a smile to show great approval for Elder Chun’s idea. But privately, he shot a resentful look at Wang Shouzhe.

Shouzhe, that kid, is a disaster~~ After emptying Eternal Spring Valley, now he intends to empty Cyan Emperor Valley as well?

Now he only hopes the Struggle for the Saint Son begins soon and ends swiftly, so Shouzhe can leave.

In response to the unexpected development of events, Wang Shouzhe also felt speechless.

Didn’t he do nothing at all? How come suddenly Lixian has gained an "old servant" and a "full-time chef"?

Soon, the tutorial class at Yoongchun Garden transformed into the following scene.

Wang Lixian was "writing vigorously," solving exam papers.

Self-proclaimed "Guardian" Great Chun stood beside her, holding a fan to fan her.

No matter if she felt hot or not, the gestures of dedicatedly serving her reading had to be proper.

Even though he had major opinions on Wang Shouzhe, he felt Miss Xian’Er ought to study well to aspire to be a cultural Immortal Spirit Tree.

Ultimately, accumulating more knowledge lessens the chances of being deceived.

His inheritance memories held some vague recollections from a distant past. Back then, there were some Immortal Spirit Trees who suffered greatly at the hands of humans due to their ignorance and lack of understanding of human knowledge.

And the full-time chef Peach Red Jade, after cooking snacks and mixing juices, was on the side cheering: "Miss Xian’Er, you must strive hard! Let’s aim to graduate from Wang Clan Academy within thirty years."

"As they say, ’Work hard for thirty years, reap benefits for a hundred thousand.’ ’No pain, no gain; the academy is tasteless without hardship. Without effort and struggle, life is meaningless.’ ’Today’s extra sweat brings tomorrow’s extra harvest.’ I believe you can do it."

Peach Red Jade’s speech was smooth, with an endless stream of motivational slogans full of chicken soup for the soul.

Under the service of the two trees, Wang Lixian raced forward, occasionally using root tendrils to roll up snacks, juices, roasted meats, and other supplies beside her; she enjoyed them voraciously, making even the dull routine of exam preparation less painful.

Beside her, Wang Lici and Lan Wan’er stared at her with watering eyes, almost to tears.

Luckily, Wang Lixian was a tree with a sense of loyalty, secretly using branches to toss them some roasted meat delicacies. To bribe the teacher and the teacher’s wife, Wang Ningxi and Shangguan Lingbo also received a share.
