Translator: 549690339
“I, Wang Shouyong, am willing to join Fourth Brother in bearing this responsibility.”
“I, Wang Shoulian, am ready to be the backup for Fourth Brother.”
One by one, the young members of the Wang family emerged from the main residence, their faces appearing pale and youthfully unseasoned. Yet, they radiated an unwavering courage, ignorant of danger and death.
Shouyong and Shoulian.
While they might not be as extraordinarily talented as Wang Luoqiu and Wang Luo Jing for now. But they were audacious enough to stand up at such a critical moment, standing shoulder to shoulder with Wang Shouzhe, ready to bear the family’s life-and-death crisis together.
Such courage and sense of responsibility promised a future full of achievements.
But this was not the end.
The members of the family, one after another, bravely stepped forward, including Wang Shounuo and Wang Luotong, who were working by Zhuwei Lake not far away. They also rushed back, ranking beside Wang Shouzhe.
“Shouzhe, I will bear this with you.” Wang Luoyi, Wang Shouzhe’s sister, stood by his side, her eyes filled with unparalleled determination.
“Brother – Miaomiao will help you fight the bad guys.” Wang Luomiao also stood up, wittily saying, “I am Wang Luomiao, eight years old. I will accept anyone under ten. Please advise!”
Although her claim to take on ‘anyone under ten’ lacked impact, it was quite practical. She was still in the stage of nurturing her vitality. It was absurd to ask her to fight genuine Profound Martial Practitioners.
“I am Wang Zongwei. Though I’m useless, I don’t fear death.” A 20-year-old young man with a crutch hobbled out, “Fourth Uncle, let me serve atonement through contribution.”
Wang Shouzhe looked at Wang Zongwei and saw him in a new light.
“I am Wang Shouye, ten years old! You bunch of villains, there will come a day when you will remember my name.” The son of Uncle Dinghai Six was young but imbued with great ambition.
“I’m Wang Zongchang, thirteen years old! I’m at the second level of the qi- refining realm, and I fear no one of my age. Please advise!” The second son of Shouxin, the elder brother. Only thirteen years old, his cultivation was on par with his elder brother Wang Zongwei.
“I am Wang Liwan, nine years old, just started cultivating. I fear no one of my age. Please advise!” The second daughter of Shouxin, the elder brother. This sweet little girl also bravely stood up.
“I’m Wang Zongsheng, seven years old. You all just wait!” He was Shouyi’s son, who had just been assessed to have B-grade aptitude.
At last, a baby girl piped up in a milk-soft voice.
“I’m Wang Luolan, five years old! I won’t let you bully my Fourth Brother.” This was the youngest daughter of Uncle Dinghai Six, the youngest girl in the Luo generation, and she was ranked the eighth. Her aptitude had not even been tested.
Family members, even the toddlers, fearlessly stood up.
After that, the clan’s elders and womenfolk all stood behind Wang Shouzhe one after another. Household servants and slaves appeared one by one; even though they were scared, they stood behind Wang Shouzhe unswervingly.
It was as if there were invisible threads connecting each of them, forming an invisible rope and integrating into a whole.
Ping’an Wang Family!
Our ancestor Zhou Xuan had moved southward with the Expansion Order, slayed demons, expanded territories, and established a foundation for our family.
The glory of our ancestors is remembered by each of us. This is faith.
Why are we able to unite so closely as a prominent family?
Because we have roots!
This is the true foundation of a family, and the depth of its heritage.
The establishment of family, the glory of ancestors, the merging of bloodlines, mutual protection, the inheritance of older generations, all contribute to the solidarity among the clan members.
While warming Wang Shouzhe’s heart with kinship, it also brought a powerful impact and shock to the others present. Could the Wang clansmen be so united and high-spirited at this crucial moment?
What a formidable strength! UppTodat𝒆d fr𝒐m nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m
Especially the members of the Liu and Zhao clans, who were shocked. Compared to the unity within the Wang clan, their family lacked such cohesion, and was filled with internal strife instead, with members scheming against each other.
Why?
Just why?
A silent crowd of onlookers, which had grown to nearly a thousand, felt a strange emotion stirring within them.
“Ah! This is a real Profound Martial prominent family, a truly noble house.” An independent cultivator muttered in a low voice, his eyes filled with infinite adoration.
“If I’m not mistaken, once the Wang Family survives this catastrophe, I fear it will rise swiftly.” An old man with a white beard spoke.
“However, right now, the Liu and Zhao clans seem far more powerful.” Someone said with worry, “After all, the rule of the world ultimately lies with those with the stronger fists.”
Gradually, discussions began to stir.
But this time, nearly all the public opinions supported the Wang clan.
Even those with ulterior motives dared not provoke the crowd at this point for fear of being torn to pieces by the raging crowd.
“Liu Shengye, Zhao Jinxian.” Holding his longsword, Wang Shouzhe declared loudly, “This is what distinguishes our Ping’an Wang Family from traitorous families like yours. You may resort to vile machinations and swagger for a little while, but you’ll never last. If you want to meet Ancestor Longyan, you have to get past me first.”
“No, Fourth Brother, let me deal with this.” Wang Luoqiu stepped in front, blocking the way. “Since when do the commanders fight first?”
“Better leave it to me.” Murderous intent flashed across Wang Luo Jing’s eyes, “Those people bullied Fourth Brother in such an aggressive manner; I will let them pay the price.”
Wang Shouzhe was delighted; the combined threat from the Liu and Zhao families had, instead, brought his clansmen closer together.
“Very well, very well. Seems like Wang Longyan is determined to hide and outlast us. Sending this bunch of kids to dither and defy us openly.” Liu Shengye, an old fox, showed no trace of his previously gentle demeanor, his face full of ruthlessness. “Alright then, let’s knock all of you youngsters down, and see how long Wang Longyan can hold on. Liu Yonghao!”
“Father, here I am.” A 15-or 16-year-old youth in splendid clothes stood out. His appearance was impressive. However, there was something frivolously unsettling about his eyebrows, like that of a careless playboy.
“Those two little girls. Didn’t they say that they won’t refuse anyone below sixteen? Seems like some gifted young ladies from Ping’an Wang Family.” Liu Shengye sneered, “You are not yet sixteen, are you? You ought to learn from them, exchange some knowledge.”
Liu Yonghao glanced over Wang Luoqiu and Wang Luo Jing, and smirked: “As you wish, father.”
Then, the young man swaggered over, scrutinizing the two girls up and down and then scoffed, “Young as you are, you’ve already reached the second level of Qi Refinement. You are indeed exceptional. However, as the young clan leader, I am at the mid-stage of the third level. It’s not too late to back down now before you accuse me of bullying you.”
Upon hearing this, the spectators surrounding them couldn’t keep silent any longer.
“Does the Liu Clan have any shame? A teenage boy from the main branch, actually has the nerve to rise.”
“Those two little girls are only eleven or twelve, right? Even if their Qi Refinement talent is good, their fighting power won’t be strong.”
Especially those peddlers and independent cultivators who wander all over, they stirred up the atmosphere and discussed endlessly. Normally, they would not dare to confront the Liu Clan. But now they were hiding among the crowd, as if there was a natural barrier around them.
“Fight, why not fight!” Wang Luoqiu, who saw someone really stepping up, trembled with excitement. “Wang Luo Jing, this guy is mine, don’t snatch him from me.”
Speaking of the lust for battle, no one in the Wang family, from top to bottom, could outmatch this little overlord Wang Luoqiu.
“No, I usually let you,” Wang Luo Jing also insisted very much, speaking calmly. “But this time, I want to be the vanguard for my fourth brother.” “Okay.” “No!”
“Let’s do rock-paper-scissors.” “Alright.”
Rock, paper, scissors! Tie. Again.
The mocking smile on Liu Yonghao’s face gradually solidified, replaced by exasperation. In his eyes, these two little girls were the kind that could be casually crushed, even if it was a one-to-two situation, he felt at ease.
However, he didn’t expect that the two girls from the Wang family would start arguing about the right to fight with him, and even use rock-paper-scissors to decide who would participate.
The laughter that surrounded them made Liu Yonghao feel like a ridiculed clown, and his face gradually turned fierce.
Suddenly!
An excited childish voice rang out: “Wang Luo Jing, you lost, he’s mine now.” Then, she swaggered, step by step, towards the center of the square.
However, Wang Luo Jing was looking regretful, murmured that she should have not thrown the scissors.
But it was useless to regret it now.
Wang Luoqiu was already standing face-to-face with Liu Yonghao in the square at the doorway, her twinkling eyes unabashedly sizing him up from top to bottom: “Scion of Liu Clan?”
“Humph, exactly right,” Liu Yonghao was filled with fury, “Little girl, if you kneel down and beg for mercy, I might spare you once. Otherwise, I’ll stomp your feet.”
“Idiot!”
Wang Luoqiu pursed her lips and looked disdainful, “You are also worthy to be the main branch? Stop the nonsense, Wang Luo Qiu here, please teach me a lesson.”
In her view, someone of the main branch should be like Wang Shou, no, like her fourth brother.
That being said, she assumed a fighting posture. Her tiny body was in a very formal position.
“Alright, alright, then don’t blame me for not being polite,” Liu Yonghao laughed out of anger as he also assumed a fighting stance. “Liu Yonghao here, please enlighten me.” He barely managed to save some face by not using a weapon.
Both sides began to scrutinize each other, looking for weaknesses. Wang Luoqiu was aggressive, but not stupid, instead she was very smart.
“Fourth Brother, that bad guy is almost sixteen,” said Wang Luolan, who was only five years old and still had some baby fat, blinking her eyes. “Will Sixth Sister win?”
“Oh my, Little Eight, you little ancestor, how did you come out too?” Wang Shouzhe picked her up in his arms indulgently, pinched her round face with a smile, and said, “Don’t worry, just watch your sixth sister beat up people.” As soon as Wang Shouzhe’s words fell,
Wang Luoqiu moved. She stomped her foot, moving as fiercely as a small tyrannosaurus in the foreign wilderness hunting for food, her speed was so fast that it left behind a trail of smoke.
In a breath, she was in front of her opponent, throwing a straightforward punch.
She didn’t move until it was shocking.
“How is this possible!” Liu Yonghao’s face changed drastically, he just managed to defensively react.
“Bang!”
Liu Yonghao felt as if his arms were hit by a hammer, the strong impact forced him to retreat several steps.
Before he could recover, Wang Luoqiu had already closed in on him, fists and kicks, elbows and knees, all straightforwardly surged towards him like a storm.
The esteemed heir of the Liu Family was actually forced on the defensive, constantly retreating.
In the end, he left an open goal.
“Bang!”
Wang Luoqiu advanced, a simple Mountain-shaking Elbow went straight into his chest. Liu Yonghao flew backward as if he had been hit by a carriage, and fell to the ground, vomiting blood and unable to get up.
It was clear that he had a few broken ribs.
At this time, Wang Luoqiu put away the mountain-shaking elbow posture, and imitated Wang Shouzhe with her hands behind her back. Her eyes had a bit of dissatisfaction, and her pretty little face had a questioning look.
“Not a worthy opponent, just a bluff, really boring.”
“Is this the talent that the Liu Clan can cultivate?”
“All, what a disappointment.”
“Can someone come out who is a bit stronger? This young lady has not warmed up yet!”
Her “forthright remarks”, like a knife, pierced mercilessly into the chests of the Liu Clan people.
Some Liu Clan members with thin skin wished they could find a hole to crawl into.
At the same time, they became dissatisfied with Liu Yonghao.
Everyone is from the main branch, why is there such a gap between him and Wang Shouzhe?
“Long live sister Six, sister Six is invincible!” Little Eight, Wang Luolan, screamed excitedly in Wang Shouzhe’s arms.
