Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 95: Chapter 92: Catching a Big Fish (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Recommendation Tickets)_1

Not only Wang Shouzhe

Even other youngsters in the family, one by one, had sparkling eyes and were mesmerized by the battlefield.

Battles of the Ancestor-level figures in the Spirit Platform Realm were rare to see. Everyone’s understanding of their fighting power and lethality was merely the product of their imagination.

Today, this was a grand feast that positively influenced the young generation who aspired to tread on the path of the Spirit Platform Realm.

Just like Wang Luoqiu, the girl who always bragged about walking the imperial path, was currently full of disbelief and shock on her pretty face. It seemed as if she had received a blow, which made Wang Shouzhe feel a bit sorry for her.

“Lass, it’s okay,” Wang Shouzhe comforted while patting her head, “You are still young. If you wish to walk the imperial, no, the Spirit Platform path, the fourth brother will definitely support you, even though this path is full of hardships and obstacles…”

Unexpectedly.

Wang Luoqiu turned her head and glanced at Wang Shouzhe: “Old, no, Wang Shouzhe, can you stop being so childish? The path of the strong has no shortcuts. I was just feeling a bit sentimental thinking about when I would be able to destroy a mountain with a single punch, which will probably take one to two hundred years.”

Wang Shouzhe was speechless. You’re planning to tear apart cosmic spaceships with your bare hands, aren’t you? He didn’t bother responding to her.

Suddenly!

The battlefield underwent a change again.

Under Ancestor Longyan’s relentless attack, Liu Zhede’s turtle shell was finally blasted away. He was knocked back and cried out in terror, “Lei Yangqiu, do you really want to watch me die?”

As soon as the words were spoken.

Wang Shouzhe’s face immediately turned serious. Here it comes.

Liu Zhede eventually shouted out that name. Wang Shouzhe had already anticipated it, but his face only turned especially grim when it actually happened. The questions he pondered before had started to surface.

With Liu Zhede’s cry for help.

From a distance, a loud shout resounded, “Everybody, stop!” The voice exploded like a thunderbolt, shocking everyone.

At the same time.

A man dressed in martial armor slowly walked into the square from the crowd. He looked quite awe-inspiring and grim, “Esteemed Ancestors, you are free to spar. But please restrain yourselves a bit. If someone ends up dying, don’t blame this Garrison Commander for being merciless.”

Lei Yangqiu, the Garrison Commander of Ping’an Town.

There are two great celestial families in Changning – one of them is the Huangfu Clan. The other, the Lei family.

As expected.

Wang Shouzhe gave a slight groan inwardly but immediately accepted the facts. Because all this was within his expectations.

Many details about the great battle that happened fifty years ago, recorded in the family annals, were ambiguous. The attack of a Level Five Fierce Beast caused a beast disaster, and Ancestor Zhou Xuan had already tried his best to resist.

Changning should have swiftly sent reinforcements, but they arrived too late.

Then, the Ancestral figures of the Liu and Zhao families surprisingly feigned death and allowed two groups of Fierce Beasts to break in, causing Zhou Xuan Ancestor’s defensive line to collapse. Were they really just thinking about a rebellion?

Two vassal families that were not even on par with Rank 9 families, dare to engage in such operations? If it weren’t for strong support from behind, they probably wouldn’t have had the guts.

Among all the families in Changning, who had the power to support them? The family with this manipulation power could be counted on the fingers of one hand.

If one were to deduce who was the puppeteer behind the scenes based on who gained the most benefit, the greatest possibility Wang Shouzhe inferred was the Lei Family of Changning.

The reasons are twofold. One, the Changning Lei Family had the full capability to do so. Second, the Garrison Commander of Ping’an Town was always appointed from the Lei family or a family close to them.

However, Wang Shouzhe couldn’t fully confirm their ultimate motive. There was another doubt: if the Lei family was the hidden culprit back then, why didn’t they act on their own? Or finished them off completely?

Why did they allow the Wang family to cling to life until today?

A lot of questions remained unanswerable, but today, Wang Shouzhe took the opportunity to set up this scene, firstly to severely damage the reputation of Liu and Zhao families and prepare for the next step. Second, naturally, it was to probe the bottom line of the Garrison Commander.

The Garrison Commander is the representative of the Great Qian Land. His interference would stop the battle, and if anyone continued to fight to death, a big hat would inevitably be put on their head.

The four Ancestral figures also stopped on the spot, still confronting each other.

Just at this moment, Wang Shouzhe rushed over, grabbed Wang Longyan’s arm, and said with concern and anxiety, “Ancestor, are you alright? Has your injury recurred?”

At the same time, he gently pinched Ancestor Longyan’s arm, reminding the Ancestor not to forget his prior instructions.

How can he just stand and do nothing?

Ancestor Longyan was pretty good in every aspect except for the fact that he was too forthright.

After a moment of surprise, the ancestor Longyan suddenly remembered Shouzhe’s previous instructions. Without warning, her slender body swayed, and, placing a thin snowy hand on her forehead, she collapsed, no longer able to control the backlash of the “Yin Sha energy” within her body.

“Puff!”

A mouthful of blood spurted onto her veil, dyeing it blood red, the sight was exceedingly gruesome.

Look at this acting, Wang Shouzhe could only give her a seven out of ten. The spitting of blood was too abrupt; there were no signs of it at all. Fortunately, Wang Shouzhe was prepared and immediately called out with a distressed expression. “Ancestor, despite my repeated urging, why didn’t you heed my words? If this continues, what’s going to happen?”

“Ancestor, are you alright?”. “Ancestor!”

The members of the Wang family also rushed over, each of them extremely anxious. The Old Ancestor Longyan was the stabilizing pin of their family. If something were to happen to her, what would they do?

“Luo Jing, Luo Qiu, quickly help the ancestor go rest. I’ll handle things here.” Wang Shouzhe, acting as the Clan Leader, quickly arranged everyone’s tasks.

During this time, both Zhao Bojun and Liu Zhide were shocked. Wang Longyan was full of vigor just a moment ago. How could she suddenly not control her injuries?

Even the Garrison Commander who had just intervened to prevent the fight, for fear that Liu Zhide would be killed by Wang Longyan on the spot, was somewhat at a loss. How did everything take a sudden turn immediately after he made an appearance?

“Wang Shouzhe pays respect to the Garrison Commander.” With gratitude all over his face, Wang Shouzhe bowed to the Garrison Commander Lei Yangqiu, saying, “On behalf of the Wang family, I thank Commander Lei for stepping in and delivering justice, preventing my family from a disastrous outcome.”

Lei Yangqiu’s mouth twitched slightly, he hardly could catch the moment. He then replied seriously: “Clan Leader Wang, how is Old Ancestor Longyan’s injuries?”

“Ah, in response to Commander Lei,” Wang Shouzhe heaved a deep sigh, his face displaying a mixture of grief and anger, “The Ancestor was showing signs of recovery, but unexpectedly, the Liu and Zhao families started a skirmish aiming to suppress my Wang family. With no other choice, the Ancestor had to resort to a secret technique of our sect to temporarily suppress the injury and barely fend off these strong enemies. If not for Commander Lei’s timely arrival to stop the Liu and Zhao families from killing, our Ancestor today might have…””

At this point, Wang Shouzhe shivered as if he was somewhat frightened. He saluted Lei Yangqiu once again, and sincerely added: “Commander Lei, I will never forget your great kindness to the Wang family, and I will definitely repay you in the future.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhide felt wrongfully accused. How could he actually paint a target on his back? It was obvious that Wang Longyan was the one who destroyed his Purple Gold Bowl with her strong energy. How did it turn out that he was the perpetrator?

No, considering his understanding of Wang Longyan’s injuries, even selling the entire Wang family would not be enough to cover the cost of treatment.

Could it be…!

Liu Zhide’s body trembled at the thought. Did Wang Longyan actually use some secret technique from the Purple Abode Academic Palace to temporarily suppress her injuries? Suddenly, an overwhelming sense of regret overcame Liu Zhide.

If that was true, if only he had held on a little longer, wouldn’t Wang Longyan break down on her own? No wonder she kept attacking him relentlessly from the very beginning. She was afraid there wouldn’t be enough time.

What a regret.

Why didn’t he just persist a little longer? In the end, fetching Lei Yangqiu turned out to be counterproductive, saving Wang Longyan instead.

Meanwhile.

Zhao Bojun and Lei Yangqiu also realized this, and they both stared intensely at Liu Zhide. The golden opportunity for Wang Longyan to collapse from her own injuries under the name of a fair fight had been lost.

Nevertheless, Lei Yangqiu was still the Garrison Commander, maintaining his serious expression, he added: “Clan Leaders, Ancestors. Our Daqian law stipulates that private fights between various prominent families are strictly prohibited. If you have that strength, it’s better to go kill some fierce beasts outside and contribute to the human race. Let’s all disperse!”

With his final word, he closed the chapter for today.

As he was leaving, he cast a somewhat annoyed glance at Liu Zhide. Liu had stirred up such a commotion, not only losing both families’ faces, but eventually also letting Wang Longyan get away by luck.

Today was a total defeat.

Liu Zhide and Zhao Bojun, while regretful, also felt somewhat dispirited. They couldn’t stay here any longer, it was better to leave sooner.

Just as they were about to quietly leave.

Wang Shouzhe suddenly called out: “Hold on! The matter today isn’t over yet.”

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on him.

Lei Yangqiu knitted his brows slightly and said displeasedly: “Clan Leader Wang, do you have anything else? The Garrison Commander has already said, all of you disperse, let this matter end.”

“In response to the Garrison Commander,” Wang Shouzhe saluted, speaking calmly, “I have a few cases of atrocious massacres to report. As everyone is here, let’s close these cases once and for all.”

Massacres?

Liu Zhide and Zhao Bojun’s hearts skipped a beat. Today’s circumstances were not right; it felt as if they had been continually falling into traps.

Without waiting for anyone to respond, Wang Shouzhe waved his hand and loudly called out: “Third Uncle, bring up the evidence.”

Wang Shouzhe’s third uncle, Wang Dingzu, was the Deputy Garrison Commander of Ping’an Town. He came forward with a group of soldiers slowly from a distance. With a solemn expression, he saluted: “In response to the Garrison Commander, I have cracked a few cruel cases of massacre. With both human and material evidence present, I ask the Garrison Commander to approve our punishment of beheading the culprits.”

Looking at the expressions of Lei Yangqiu, Liu Zhide, and Zhao Bojun.

Wang Shouzhe sneered internally. Did they think they could come and make a mess in the Wang family, arriving whenever they wanted and leaving as they pleased? He had planned for this, would he let the Liu and Zhao families leave without stripping off a few layers of their skin?
