Protect Our Chief

Chapter 1007: Chapter 56: The Wang Family’s "Unwholesome Practices" Sweep Across the Upper Capital (Part 3)

Especially Yingxuan and Lilong, those two little grandaunts are definitely not anything good.

Walking around the Imperial City, this den where money vanishes, with huge sums in their pockets, the two of them could float up to the sky. In two days at most they’d probably burn through it all, which would be far too much of a waste of such hard‑earned money.

Wang Yingxuan and Wang Lilong’s faces both drooped, and their tears were practically about to gush out.

Fortunately, Wang Shouzhe casually stuffed a small stack of Gold Notes into each of their hands as well, adding up to over ten thousand Qian Gold, instantly turning their tears into smiles.

As for An Ye, he got nothing. That kid has so much money stored in his Infinite Treasure Ring that even Wang Shouzhe has no idea how much there really is. Giving him ten or twenty thousand Qian Gold would be pure insult.

In their teens, it’s exactly the age when they’re least willing to stay put.

Sure enough, by the very next day, the three little ones couldn’t bear the boredom anymore and went out to wander around the Imperial City.

Regarding this, the Daqian Wang Family naturally took it very seriously. Besides having Wang Anan accompany them, they also arranged for a Purple Mansion Realm Elder to secretly watch over them.

As for Wang Shouzhe, this trip to the Imperial City was not for fun.

On this visit, he had several major matters to take care of, and the first among them was to seek out a True Skill suitable for cultivation for the clan.

The so‑called "True Skill" refers to a Cultivation Technique that points directly to the Divine Power Realm. For example, the "Glazed Bright King True Technique" cultivated by those two girls, Luqiu and Lici, is a True Skill inheritance.

Right now, the Wang Family’s wealth and overall foundation have all grown significantly, and the number of Great Celestial Prides in the clan has even exploded. Ancestor Longyan and Ruolan’s bloodline Talent has both reached the Innate Spirit Body Level.

With such powerful Talent and their current Cultivation, breaking through to the Purple Mansion Realm is only a matter of thirty to forty years.

An Upper Grade Technique can only be cultivated up to the breakthrough to the Purple Mansion Realm. If there is no suitable True Skill, once they advance to the Purple Mansion Realm, they will be unable to continue cultivating.

Even if they keep using their original Cultivation Technique to train, their cultivation speed will become unbearably slow.

Therefore, he must acquire a True Skill inheritance as soon as possible.

However, a True Skill inheritance is something extremely important in any clan or power, and it absolutely would not be passed out lightly. freewēbnoveℓ.com

Wang Shouzhe is merely an Outer Disciple of the Purple Mansion Academy. Being authorized to cultivate an Upper Grade Technique like the "Eternal Spring True Technique" is already the limit. If he wants to cultivate a complete True Skill, he must formally join the Saint Land.

Yet even Lingyun Sacred Land only possesses nine complete True Skills, and the Nine Sacred Veins of the Saint Land arose precisely from this.

Aside from Lingyun Sacred Land, the Daqian Imperial Family is the Noble Family with the most True Skill inheritances, but they only have eight True Skills.

Fortunately, the Daqian Wang Family is also an ancient clan with long‑standing foundations. It is said that the clan possesses two True Skill inheritances.

After mulling it over, Wang Shouzhe felt that obtaining a True Skill inheritance from the Daqian Wang Family was the most convenient path, so he came to try this avenue first.

...

An hour later.

In a vibrant Jade Bamboo Forest, Wang Shouzhe and Patriarch Yuchang sat facing each other, drinking Spirit Tea.

Patriarch Yuchang’s expression was serious, and he looked somewhat troubled. "Shouzhe, you should know that for any of the Upper Third-Grade Noble Families, the inheritance of a True Skill is of paramount importance."

"Although this matter can’t compare to the Imperial Family’s Struggle of the Imperial Sons or Lingyun Sacred Land’s Struggle for the Saint Son, it’s still not something that every clansman who wants to cultivate can just cultivate."

"Patriarch Yuchang." Wang Shouzhe asked with a calm smile, "My Changning Wang Family may only be a branch of the Wang Family, but we still have the blood of our founding Ancestor ’Ancestor Dingxuan’ flowing in our veins. You’re not going to let such an excellent bloodline inheritor of our Ancestor end up without any True Skill to cultivate, are you?"

Although the Saint Land is also a path, it’s impossible for everyone in the clan to walk the Saint Land route, right?

"Naturally that won’t do." Patriarch Yuchang hurriedly shook his head. "It’s just that in the past, there has never been such a precedent regarding this matter, so I don’t dare to make the decision on my own. How about this: let’s wait a few days for our Ancestor to come out of seclusion, and then we’ll discuss it again?"

"When I received Shouzhe’s letter earlier, I already found a way to inform our Ancestor. Judging by the timing, he should be emerging from seclusion in these next few days. At that time, our Ancestor will take you and the others to pay respects to the Wang Family’s forebears."

"Oh right~" At this point, Wang Yuchang suddenly recalled something. "Shouzhe, in your last letter you mentioned that the Seventh Legion Commander during the Divine Martial Dynasty era was called ’Wang Chuanwu’? That he was a Peak of Lingxu big shot? But I went through all of our clan’s historical records, and found that the Wang Family’s recorded history can only be traced back fifteen thousand years at most—everything before that is vague and unclear. The historical material you discovered can be considered as having unearthed our Wang Family’s true origin of inheritance. This is truly a great contribution."

"Once I refine and complete the summary of the inheritance records, I’ll personally make a trip to the Immortal Dynasty to meet with several related Wang clans, and discuss matters such as building an Ancestral Hall for Ancestor Chuanwu."

"This is a momentous affair. If Ancestor Chuanwu’s heroic spirit still exists, he would certainly be gratified by the prosperity and flourishing of his descendants." Wang Shouzhe’s expression was also very solemn as he said earnestly, "I’ll have to trouble you with everything, Patriarch Yuchang."

Patriarch Yuchang laughed. "These are matters concerning our own Ancestor; what’s there to be troubled about?"

Having said that, the two exchanged a look, everything understood without words.

...

Adults go on business trips to handle proper affairs; when children go far from home, their main activity is naturally to have fun.

With Wang Anan, this well‑connected Local Bully, leading the way, Wang An Ye and the others were having a great time, and they weren’t afraid of being bullied either. After all, aside from a limited number of people, among his peers Wang Anan was practically afraid of no one.
