Protect Our Patriarch

Since the guest has spoken so.

Wang Shouzhe couldn't refute him, so he had to show a kind smile and say, "Lici, thank you for your Uncle Shouye."

"Thank you, Uncle Shouye, you are such a good person." Wang Lici grinned and then sat down eagerly, waiting for the dishes to be served.

Wang Shouye felt relieved, the way she called him uncle was really sweet.

This simple and naive girl seemed to bring him a lot of positive energy, making his wounded heart feel as if a warm current was flowing through.

Comfortable!

Indeed, being with the weak is stress-free and brings joy.

Wang Xiaozheng, who was sitting next to them, didn't pay special attention to Wang Lici's cultivation level, after all, the girl was wearing a high-level concealment pendant.

As for Wang Shouzhe, he was also wearing a concealment pendant, which made Wang Xiaozheng unable to see his cultivation level, and inadvertently intimidated them.

However, Wang Xiaozheng seemed to be only in the early stage of the Spirit Platform realm, obviously giving up the path of becoming a celestial being.

He probably wasn't a match for Wang Shouzhe.

And Wang Xiaozheng had been pondering since he entered the door, the gift originally given by the Ancestor Zhubo was only worth two thousand Top Gold.

The rest of the seven or eight thousand Top Gold gifts were prepared to make friends with the local heroes, the young masters of Chen's Clan and Dantai's Clan.

But now it seems.

This two thousand Top Gold seems to be a slap in the face.

Biting his teeth.

Wang Xiaozheng took the opportunity to go to the bathroom to modify the gift list, and now he presented it with a smile, "Clan Leader Shouzhe, these are the resources that our Ancestor Zhubo asked me to bring. The quantity is not much, please don't laugh, please don't laugh."

Wang Shouzhe took it with both hands according to the etiquette, and after scanning the list, he said with a smile, "The Wang's Clan from Longzuo is indeed a celestial family, this gift is quite generous. This gift is worth at least five thousand Top Gold, right?"

Five thousand Top Gold?

Wang Shouye, Wang Zongwei, and Wang Luotong, who were brought along as companions, were all slightly stunned. They didn't expect the Wang's Clan from Longzuo to be so generous and brought a gift worth five thousand Top Gold.

This was far beyond their expectations.

Wang Shouye was also stunned, wasn't it supposed to be two thousand? Oh, right, it must be that Grandpa San saw that the situation was wrong and immediately added three thousand.

This three thousand Top Gold was added well and wonderfully. This showed the strength of our Wang's Clan from Longzuo.

His severely frustrated self-esteem suddenly came back to life, as if he was a little proud, and even his spirits were flying.

Look at the expressions of those young boys and girls, they all seem to be shocked.

Immediately.

Wang Shouye bowed to Wang Shouzhe with a smile, "Fourth Brother Shouzhe, our two clans are of the same lineage, we should help each other. This time I came in a hurry, and the resources of five thousand Top Gold are not much."

"Uh... it doesn't seem to be much." Wang Lici muttered truthfully.

In her view, if she were allowed to eat freely and exchange all these five thousand Top Gold for third-order spirit meat, she probably wouldn't be able to eat for a few days.

Coming all the way here to give five thousand Top Gold resources.

With that effort, it would be better to form a team to go to the outer region to hunt a third-order fierce beast.

The smile on Wang Shouye's face suddenly froze......

As soon as Wang Lici's voice fell, she was glared at by Wang Shouzhe, "If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will ban you from eating spirit food for half a year."

"That's right." The 'elder' Wang Shouye also said to Wang Lici earnestly, "Big girl, you are still too young to understand what it means to give a gift with a light but heavy heart."

God damn it, a gift with a light but heavy heart!

The rigid smile on Wang Shouye's face twitched a few times, what kind of reprimanding words are these?

"Enough." As the only "Ancestor" present, Ancestor Xiaohan said with a stern face, "What do you young ones know? Even if it's a celestial family, there's not much money left over in a year. Don't always talk about the rich not knowing the hunger of the poor." freewёbnoνel.com

Uh......

What does it mean by the rich not knowing the hunger of the poor?

As soon as these words came out.

Not to mention Wang Shouye, even Wang Xiaozheng's face turned red with embarrassment.

"Enough, enough." Wang Luotong also couldn't help but laugh and cry, thinking to herself, what kind of emotional intelligence do these clan members have? Immediately, she came out to make peace and said, "Everyone, watch your words, who doesn't have a few poor relatives?"

The two guests from Longzuo almost crawled under the table.

"......" Wang Shouzhe broke out in a cold sweat, he shouldn't have let them accompany this meal. If you let them continue to talk, I guess the guests will lose their appetite.

As the Clan Leader, he could only say, "The joke ends here, serve the dishes."

With Wang Shouzhe's order.

Xiao Si and the maids brought up the prepared spirit food and spirit wine one by one. They used some of the best spirit meat and spirit fish, all produced in An River and the outer region, and treated with ice fresh, they were all very fresh.

The plates and bowls used were all made of fine porcelain. But for drinking glasses and some special dishes, the maids habitually used top-grade glassware.

"This......" Wang Shouye's eyes lit up, he picked up a crystal-clear glass cup and said, "This is a top-grade foreign glass cup, even the top-grade ones are not so crystal-clear, this must be the legendary best foreign glass cup, right? Fourth Brother Shouzhe is really generous."

"If Shouye likes it, I'll give you a set when you leave, and Ancestor Xiaozheng can also take a set." Wang Shouzhe said with a smile that made people feel like they were bathed in spring breeze."Brother Shouzhe is indeed generous. This set would cost at least two to three hundred Top Gold in the Commandery." At this point, Wang Shouzhe didn't want to argue about superiority anymore.

He had realized that the Wang's Clan of Ping'an was truly extravagant, and he was just a poor relative. As long as he could put his pride aside, he found the world suddenly became much brighter.

Then he and Wang Xiaozheng began to eat heartily. The ingredients were all very fresh and delicious, and the spiritual fish and spiritual meat seemed extremely fresh, all at least second-grade, with some third-grade spiritual meat as main dishes.

This made them sigh with emotion. Just this meal alone probably cost two to three hundred Top Gold, right?

The Wang's Clan of Ping'an had indeed become more extravagant than before.

But before they could take a few bites, they suddenly found that the dishes on the table had been finished.

The people of the Wang's Clan were used to this.

With Wang Lici present, the meal would never be peaceful.

Wang Shouzhe, who was prepared, remained calm and waved his hand, "Serve the dishes."

The servants brought up the second wave of dishes, which were even larger in quantity and quality!

This shocked the grandfather and grandson of the Wang's Clan in Longzuo Commandery. Was the previous table of dishes just appetizers?

This hospitality was too extravagant, wasn't it?

In less than half an incense stick's time, Wang Shouzhe expressionlessly said, "Serve the dishes."

Then the servants began to serve the third wave of dishes.

This wave was even larger.

The grandfather and grandson of the Wang's Clan in Longzuo Commandery were so shocked that they couldn't speak. They thought the first wave of dishes was extravagant enough, but there was a second wave, and a third wave.

In the end, there were five waves of dishes.

They ate until their bellies were round. They had never eaten so extravagantly in their lives. It was truly an eye-opening experience.

No wonder.

Wang Lici had muttered earlier that five thousand Top Gold was nothing. According to the Wang's Clan's eating habits, five thousand Top Gold was indeed nothing.

Based on the value of the gifts they brought, they probably couldn't afford two meals.

Especially that girl named Wang Lici, who ate half of the ingredients and still seemed unsatisfied.

This made Wang Shouzhe's heart pound. He originally thought this niece was quite cute, harmless to humans and animals. He even thought about inviting her to the Commandery for a meal.

Fortunately, he held his tongue. Otherwise, even if he spent all his savings for a year, it wouldn't be enough for this girl's one meal.

He wiped a cold sweat and felt extremely relieved.

After the meal.

As the host, Wang Shouzhe naturally invited them for tea and a chat.

A few days later.

...

An River. A medium-sized cargo ship was heading towards the East Sea.

Wang Shouzhe of the Wang's Clan in Longzuo Commandery and Elder Wang Xiaozheng of the Spirit Platform Realm stood at the stern of the ship.

Looking at the increasingly distant Dingpu Ferry, the two looked at each other, their hearts filled with emotion.

This trip to the Wang's Clan of Ping'an, from their confident and condescending departure, to being beaten down, to accepting the gifts from the Wang's Clan...

The process was full of ups and downs, making them overwhelmed.

Even the young masters of the Chen and Dantai Clans, whom they were proud to befriend, had a shallow relationship with the Wang's Clan.

Especially the young master of the Chen Clan, who was actually related to the Wang's Clan by marriage. His wife was Wang Shouzhe's biological sister, Wang Luoyi.

After hearing that they were going to visit the young master of the Chen Clan, Wang Shouzhe personally wrote them a letter of introduction, asking the Chen's Clan in Donggang to take care of them.

This was truly a case of unintended success.

The kindness that the old Ancestor Zhou Bo showed to the Wang's Clan back then was deeply remembered by them. They truly repaid every bit of kindness with a spring of gratitude.

"Shouyue," Wang Xiaozheng said with emotion, "you should learn from your Brother Shouzhe."

"Grandpa, don't worry." Wang Shouyue had no pride at all and said sincerely, "I will definitely hold onto Brother Shouzhe's thigh tightly."

"A promising young man."

...

After sending off the guests from the Wang's Clan in Longzuo Commandery.

Wang Shouzhe began his long-planned trip to the academy.

This trip involved more than a dozen carriages, heading towards Longzuo Commandery in a grand manner.

The carriage traveled at a steady pace on the smooth official road, quite fast.

The journey required passing through Anyuan Guard, Langyou Guard, Dongshan Corridor, Dingbian Pass, Langzuo Guard, Xincheng Guard, and other major city gates and guard cities, passing through many mountains and rivers, with a total distance of over three thousand miles.

Even though Wang Shouzhe's carriage was pulled by sturdy northern heavy horses, they could only travel a maximum of one hundred and fifty miles a day.

And every time he passed a guard city, he would stay for a while, experience the local customs, eat some local delicacies, just like he was on a tour.

Therefore, this trip took a month.

Such a slow pace made the old Ancestor Xuanfu, who was accompanying him, quite dissatisfied and grumbled several times.

Because every time she traveled to and from the academy, she would ride lightly and it would take less than ten days for a single trip.

But he took a month just to reach Longzuo Commandery, and he was buying things all the way, showing off his extravagance.

But who could blame him? This trip was all arranged by Wang Shouzhe, and her complaints were useless.

Instead, she was occasionally pulled by Wang Shouzhe to chat about those top core disciples, personal disciples, and masters in the academy.

Wang Shouzhe mocked, "You've been in the academy for over a hundred years, and you don't even know the preferences of each superior and the leaders of the academy?"

In any case, the caravan arrived safely and without incident, slowly reaching the front of Longzuo Commandery.

Longzuo Commandery.

This was a city name that Wang Shouzhe had heard countless times since he crossed over.

Although he had already imagined what a large city in this fantasy world would look like, he was still deeply shocked when he saw this huge and magnificent city with his own eyes.

It sprawled across the land like an incredibly large beast.

The city wall was probably four to five zhang thick and twenty to thirty zhang high. Even the famous fifth-order fierce beasts would look tiny under the city wall.

The construction of such a city must have its functionality. It seemed that it was not only designed to defend against fifth-order fierce beasts, but also needed to defend against sixth and seventh-order fierce beasts!

No wonder, to the people of the commandery, Changning Guard was just a rural place.

At the entrance of the commandery, there were carriages and various spirit beasts pulling carts. The heavy-duty horses of the North were just decent among the ordinary breeds.

But they were far from comparable to spirit beasts.

For example, Wang Shouzhe's Fire Stepping White Cloud was a famous spirit horse. However, Fire Stepping White Cloud was more suitable for riding, not for pulling carts.

The ones more suitable for pulling carts were a type of spirit horse called Green Scale Heavy Horse, or a type of spirit ox called White Elephant Spirit Ox.

The former was faster in pulling carts and had a good load capacity, while the latter was specifically used for pulling heavy goods.

Each had its own uses.

Of course, these were two common types of spirit livestock, and ordinary clans could afford to keep them.

There were also some strange and exotic beasts, even third or fourth-order spirit beasts, which were not something ordinary families could afford.

Most people had to queue to enter and exit the commandery.

But Wang Shouzhe and his group didn't have to.

Firstly, they were picked up by a celestial clan.

Secondly, even with the core disciple token of Xuanfu Ancestor's academy, they could enter through the VIP channel.

They only had to wait for a moment.

Not far away.

A group of people quickly approached Wang Shouzhe and his group.

The leader was a middle-aged man. He was dressed in a fire silkworm silk robe, wore a purple-gold crown, had a white face with a beard, and had an extraordinary demeanor.

He quickened his pace, walked like a dragon and a tiger, and said with a smile, "Are you the group from Wang's Clan of Ping'an? I am Wang Xiaorui, the current head of the Wang's Clan in Longzuo. I am here to welcome our children home."

His attitude was as good as it could be.

Seeing this, Wang Shouzhe couldn't help but smile. His letter alone couldn't possibly have the Wang's Clan of Longzuo personally come out of the city to welcome them.

At most, they would send a Lingtai realm elder.

The only explanation now was.

The Wang's Clan of Longzuo must have received the report letters from Wang Xiaozheng and Wang Shouyue, and they must know that the Wang's Clan of Ping'an is developing quite well now.

In fact, this was the effect that Wang Shouzhe originally wanted to achieve.

To avoid unnecessary unpleasantness because you look down on me, and I despise you.

After all, the two sides are blood relatives of the same lineage. If there is a chance to help each other and support each other, it is not a bad thing.

This is not like the fantasy world he saw in his previous life, where relatives were always fighting each other, and it was a matter of life and death, and they never got along.

Such a situation is rare in the Great Qian.

Most of the time, relatives will help each other, and it is more common to unite against outsiders.
