Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 191: Chapter 7: Great Opportunity! The Legacy of the Wang Family’s Old Ancestor_1

…

This time, the expedition to the outer region included quite a significant number of people.

From the younger generation,

there was Chen Fangjie, Liu Yuanhui, Gongsun Yan, Lu Xiaoxiao, Wang Luoyi, and Liu Ruolei.

There were also Wang Shouyong, Wang Shoulian, Wang Luotong, Wang Shounuo.

Let alone the Wang family’s little Sky Prides: Wang Luoqiu, Wang Licui, and Wang Luo Jing.

Basically, an entire household seemed to have made the journey.

Many clan elders also came along, including the venerable Ruhong, Mingsheng, Mang, Longyan, Xuanfu – a total of five Realm Cultivators from the Spiritual Platform.

Such a extravagantly assembled team made Venerable Xuanfu’s eyelids twitch. She intentionally dropped to the back and said to Venerable Longyan, “Cousin, what’s going on? We had clearly agreed that this relic site was to be shared between our two families, so why are there so many people here?”

Venerable Longyan casually responded, “Indeed, that’s what I said.”

“But all the big and small matters within the family are now presided over by Shouzhe. Why don’t you ask him?”

Venerable Xuanfu grimaced, “Cousin, you can’t just cross the river and tear down the bridge like this. For this relic, I even married Ruolan off to your family.”

The Gongsun Clan, Chen Clan of Donggang, and Lu Clan of Yingxiu. They didn’t have to pay any price to join this feast.

Venerable Longyan had no choice but to call down Wang Shouzhe to clarify things with Venerable Xuanfu.

“Venerable Xuanfu, we are all family. Shouldn’t we all share the good things? Why bother brooding over it?” Wang Shouzhe calmly stated.

What does he mean by ‘why bother brooding’?

Venerable Xuanfu felt utterly short-changed, muttering in discontent, “Why didn’t you share the good things years ago? You had to wait until Ruolan was married off before you started sharing.”

“Perhaps it’s because Ruolan and I were meant to be in a previous life,” said Wang Shouzhe.

Sheesh- meant to be in a previous life my foot!

The corner of Venerable Xuanfu’s mouth twitched uncontrollably. He truly wanted to smack the young man who now had two children with Ruolan.

Unfortunately, there’s no use regretting it now. Besides, she had heard that the Liu family and Wang family had collaborated, and made quite a bit of money.

Even her own brother and nephew, both venerable ancestors, did nothing but praise Wang Shouzhe.

Well, it’s useless to dwell on it anymore. It only serves to distress.

In resignation, Venerable Xuanfu waved her hand dismissively at Wang Shouzhe, indicating for him to stay away — seeing him just made her want to punch something.

With that, Wang Shouzhe returned to the coach, continuing to lovey-dovey with his wife disregarding others.

It wasn’t until Wang Luoyi, who was likewise in the coach, could bear it no more and kicked Wang Shouzhe out.

Only then did the group continue their journey in peace.

Wang Shouzhe had already studied the map of the thousand miles intensely, cross-referencing it with the maps established by the Wang family in the outer region over the past eight years. He had found the safest and most straightforward route to take.

The group traveled light and fast.

They covered vastly more ground each day than a hunting party would and only had to stop four nights for the journey of more than a thousand miles.

However, the coach could only carry two people – Wang Luoyi and Liu Ruolan. Despite Wang Licui’s longing to ride, she had to traverse the journey on foot.

Even for a delicate cousin like Lu Xiaoxiao, Wang Shouzhe was rather strict.

Luckily, Wang Shouzhe accompanied everyone on foot, preventing the sisters from rebelling.

Typically, the Xuanwu elite families would not venture so far out for hunting. Thus, for the first two nights, they had campsites, but eventually, they had to break their own ground in unchartered wilderness.

Due to the well-planned route and a touch of luck,

they didn’t encounter any danger along the way, not even a fifth-level Fierce Beast, let alone a fourth-level one.

At most, they ran into a third-level pig-type Fierce Beast.

Poor third-level Fierce Beast.

A host of venerable ancestors swarmed it, no doubt they achieved victory, and accumulated plenty of Spirit Meat for everyone.

All of those present were Xuanwu elites, and the ancestors were all big eaters. If they were to eat freely, this third-level Fierce Beast would supply enough food for seven or eight days.

But the calmer things are, the better. Wang Shouzhe had merely prepared for the worst. Not encountering a fifth-level Fierce Beast is normal. Meeting one would be strange. But, if one is unprepared and something unforeseen occurs, Wang Shouzhe would not be able to bear the consequences.

They managed to arrive at their destination without much fuss. This place was ordinary and very well concealed.

If not for Venerable Longyan, who had visited this place nearly a hundred years ago,

nobody would find it. Because one has to traverse through a narrow canyon fissure, zigzagging in and out, twisting and turning before finally arriving at the inconspicuous canyon.

Back in the day, Venerable Zhou Xuan had accidentally stumbled upon this place while being chased by a third-level Fierce Beast.

Such is destiny.

If this place were easy to find, how would it be Venerable Zhou Xuan’s lot?

Unfortunately, Venerable Zhou Xuan did not manage to ascend to the Heavenly Human Realm, despite having this opportunity.

All the hard work put into planning only benefited future generations.

This is the principle of one generation planting trees for the next generation to enjoy the shade.

Moreover, this relic site did not appear directly in the canyon but was buried in the cliffs alongside the canyon. You needed to crawl through a hidden natural crevice to get inside.

As they say, times change, and so does the landscape.

Over a hundred thousand years, everything has changed.

Most of this relic site had collapsed. Many of the buildings had merged with the mountains, leaving only a space akin to a gladiatorial arena in the center.
