Protect Our Patriarch

Almost at the same time.

Inside the martial arts arena of the Wang's Clan.

Two young men were sparring. The older one, dressed in a basalt-colored outfit, wielded his sword in a seemingly simple manner, yet each move was filled with an ancient and profound strength.

The other, a youth in black, moved as swiftly as the wind, sometimes elusive, his sword techniques were like a violent storm, pouring down on his opponent.

However, no matter how flashy his moves were, he couldn't break through his opponent's defense.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

Their steel swords clashed continuously, producing a ringing sound of metal on metal.

Half an incense stick's time later.

The youth in black could no longer hold back. He used his agility to flash around, creating ghostly images of wind, and with a powerful momentum, he slashed down from above.

His steel sword released a highly condensed colorless energy, transforming into a crescent-shaped sword aura that slashed towards his opponent. This move was as unstoppable as splitting a mountain.

However, the older youth in blue didn't move an inch, showing no signs of retreat. His steel sword simply drew a circle in the air, and a vibrant energy burst forth, instantly forming an energy shield.

"Boom!"

The two energies collided, and the shockwave spread in all directions. The youth in black, who was on the offensive, was instead sent flying backward, only stabilizing his figure after flying several meters in the air, his body floating in mid-air.

He said dejectedly, "I give up, I give up. It's too frustrating to fight with Fourth Uncle. Even my killer move, 'Wind Slash', can be easily defended."

The older youth was none other than Wang Shouzhe, the head of the Wang's Clan. He sheathed his sword and smiled, "Zongchang, don't be discouraged. You've just advanced to the Spirit Platform Realm, your foundation is not yet stable, and you haven't fully exploited your own advantages. Your Wind Bloodline is very interesting, there's still a lot to explore."

The youth in black was Wang Zongchang, Wang Shouzhe's nephew.

Nearly four years ago, he had a stroke of luck in a disaster and activated his Wind Bloodline due to the stimulation of a Blood Gu. He had stepped into the ranks of the young prodigies. Over the years, he had been cultivating in seclusion with the support of Wang Shouzhe.

Not long ago, he, who had cultivated to the peak of the Qi Refining Realm, achieved good results in the trial ground. He obtained a Heavenly Spirit Pill, a bottle of primary Bloodline Enhancement Liquid, and a superior Spirit Artifact.

Unfortunately, after using the primary Bloodline Enhancement Liquid to further awaken his bloodline, he reached the initial stage of the second layer of the Qi Refining Realm with his Wind Bloodline. However, he was still a bit short when fighting against the puppet of the Spirit Platform Realm and failed to pass the final test.

Even so, he was still quite impressive. With the help of the Heavenly Spirit Pill, he easily broke through to the Spirit Platform Realm, activating another layer of bloodline, reaching the initial stage of the third layer of bloodline.

Among the cultivators in the Spirit Platform Realm in the clan, those who reached this level of bloodline were only Wang Shouzhe, Liu Ruolan, Wang Lici, Wang Luoqiu, and Wang Luoqing. Including him, there were only six. Even the Ancestor Long Yan, who had reached the eighth layer of the Spirit Platform Realm, only had a second layer bloodline, still a bit short of the third layer.

"Thank you for your encouragement, Fourth Uncle." Wang Zongchang bowed in thanks.

"Come rest in my courtyard and try my newly brewed Ice Crystal Spirit Wine. Your Fourth Aunt is in seclusion anyway, so keep me company for a chat." Wang Shouzhe said, inviting Wang Zongchang back to his courtyard.

The two sat opposite each other in the lush and colorful courtyard, ordering the cook to prepare some snacks.

Then, a man cloaked in a robe walked over, his voice low, "Master, the Spirit Wine Gourd is here, it's been exactly one month." He handed over a gourd that was glowing with treasure light.

The gourd was simple yet radiant, covered with countless intricate runes. It was clearly not an ordinary item.

"Thank you, Wang Shouwei." Wang Shouzhe greeted with a smile.

"It's not hard to serve the master." He replied in a low voice.

This Wang Shouwei was not an ordinary human, but a Guardian Spirit Weapon produced in the recruitment trial ground of the Shenwu Dynasty.

According to the introduction of the Spirit Artifact, it was a Guardian Spirit Weapon in the early stage of the Spirit Platform Realm. Therefore, Wang Shouzhe and Liu Ruolan didn't choose it at first. It was only two years ago when Wang Luoqing and Wang Luoqiu had cultivated to the peak of the Qi Refining Realm and had polished their skills for a while, they both broke through the fourth barrier in the trial ground.

One of them obtained the Spirit Wine Gourd, and the other obtained the Guardian Spirit Weapon, both of which were given to Wang Shouzhe.

Let's not talk about the wine gourd for now.

This Guardian Spirit Weapon, Wang Shouzhe had underestimated it at first. He originally thought that the so-called early stage of the Spirit Platform Realm was just equivalent to an ordinary Ancestor, but he didn't expect that its actual combat power was quite terrifying, almost equivalent to an early stage Spirit Platform Realm cultivator with a third layer bloodline, and it could still fight a bit.

Among the cultivators in the Spirit Platform Realm in the clan, only Wang Shouzhe and Liu Ruolan could suppress it.

Most importantly, it was made of special materials and was very good at defense and protection. Once it activated its protective mode, even a cultivator in the late stage of the Spirit Platform Realm couldn't break its defense in a short time.Truly worthy of being a product of the Shenwu Dynasty, this early-stage Lingtai realm guardian spirit weapon is of great value and use. The ordinary spirit weapons sold by the Great Qian are far inferior in comparison, and it can be passed down as a family heritage.

Because "it" has some simple spiritual intelligence, Wang Shouzhe decided to name it Wang Shouwei, which means to guard the family.

In contemplation, Wang Shouzhe took the gourd, removed the lid, and a heartwarming aroma of wine spread out. He poured the wine into a glass, the liquid was as clear as water, and a "fairy mist" rose from the slight chill.

"Fourth Uncle, your spirit treasure wine gourd is truly a treasure." Wang Zongchang licked his lips, clearly craving, "Ordinary spirit wine, although beneficial for cultivation, is far inferior to the spirit wine produced by the spirit treasure wine gourd."

Since obtaining the spirit treasure wine gourd, it can produce a hundred jin of spirit wine each month according to different ingredients. After Wang Shouzhe and his clan tasted it, they decided to keep this spirit wine for internal use only.

Not only is it delicious, but it is also quite beneficial for cultivation, and it even has some effect on breaking through bottlenecks. Nowadays, Wang Shouzhe is constantly trying its functions. In recent months, he has put in a hundred jin of ice crystal spirit rice and produced a gourd of ice crystal spirit wine.

The taste of ice crystal spirit wine is the most comfortable, even more refreshing than iced drinks.

Unfortunately, the Wang's Clan does not have a medium-grade ice spirit field and cannot produce ice crystal spirit rice on their own. They can only commission the Qian's Clan to purchase a batch. In addition, Wang Shouzhe also commissioned some connections to purchase some higher-end spirit rice and spirit fruits, and will try them later.

The uncle and nephew drank a few cups, and gradually became tipsy.

Wang Shouzhe sealed the spirit wine and stopped drinking. Although the spirit wine is delicious, drinking too much is not beneficial, and despite its smooth taste, it is very easy to get drunk.

"Zongchang." Wang Shouzhe took out a soft black armor from his storage ring and said, "This armor is called Night Shadow Armor. It is a rare spirit weapon level armor. Once used at night, it can blend with the night and is not easily detected by others. Moreover, its defense is also good."

Wang Zongchang's eyes lit up immediately, and he took it with great interest: "Fourth Uncle, this armor is good, but it's a pity that it's only effective at night." frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

"There's no such thing as perfect in this world." Wang Shouzhe laughed, "You now carry the triple Xun Wind bloodline, and you are only one step away from the Xun Wind spirit body. When practicing the 'Xun Wind Flash' body technique, you are faster than us in learning, and the effect is also stronger than ours. Since you carry such a bloodline, why not fully utilize its strengths? If you act at night, you will come without a trace and go without a trace. When your cultivation level is higher, I'm afraid even the Heavenly Man realm cultivators can't catch you."

"Fourth Uncle..." Wang Zongchang said with a wry smile, "Are you suggesting that I become a thief?" With the upright education he received since childhood, he was a bit hard to accept at this moment.

"This is called a scout!" Wang Shouzhe said, "It can gather intelligence and assassinate important enemies. You are not a child anymore, the struggle between families is often bloody and cruel. Having one more method means having one more trump card and chance of winning."

Wang Zongchang's face became serious, and after a while, he said solemnly: "Since Fourth Uncle and the family need it, then I will be a scout."

"Good." Wang Shouzhe nodded in satisfaction, and served him some dishes, "I have asked Wang Mei to find several loose cultivator teachers for you. Although they are only Qi Refining realm loose cultivators, don't underestimate them. They all have their own strengths, some are good at stealth, some are good at tracking, some are good at lock picking, and some are good at poison techniques. In addition, Wang Mei is also good at disguise, you can learn from her."

With each point he made, Wang Zongchang's face darkened. Fourth Uncle was clearly training him to be a thief. However, since the family and Fourth Uncle needed it, he would give it his all.

Actually, he guessed right.

In his previous life on Earth, Wang Shouzhe also liked to play games like World of Warcraft, and his favorite was playing the rogue with strong wilderness survival skills.

Unfortunately, his bloodline talent destined him to be a healer, so he passed on the great dream of being a rogue to his nephew Zongchang.

"However, I still want to thank Fourth Uncle for giving me the Night Shadow Armor and for your careful cultivation." Wang Zongchang said gratefully.

"This Night Shadow Armor is worth forty thousand Top Gold, and I will calculate it as forty thousand family contribution points for you." Wang Shouzhe said, "The rest of the costs for hiring teachers will also be deducted from your contribution points. But don't worry, with your current strength, you will be able to repay the contribution points soon."

"..." Wang Zongchang's eyes widened, "I'm overwhelmed with gratitude," "Thank you for forcing me, Fourth Uncle."

Poor Wang Zongchang, who originally wanted to follow the free and easy swordsman route, but unexpectedly, Wang Shouzhe set his profession, forced equipment on him, and deducted a wave of DKP.
