Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 549: Chapter 35 Yi Wood Essence! The “Invincible” Path of the Young Clan Leader _2

“Enough, enough!”

However, before Wang Zong’an could react, the Longevity Tree changed its mind in self-interest yet again.

“Your father’s bloodline is too superior, I’m afraid he might be like that heartless Green Fern girl. If he encounters a Spirit Plant that matches better with him, he might just toss my dear daughter aside and leave her in the shadows. Your bloodline is far inferior to your father’s, precisely because of this inferiority, the chance of you abandoning her out of interest is rather low.”

The Longevity Tree, although an extraordinary Spirit Plant, is not the only one of its kind. It has been alive for thousands of years and it understands that there are many other Spirit Plants out there, stronger than it.

You are the epitome of fickleness…

Listening to the Longevity Tree, Wang Zong’an couldn’t help but inwardly criticize.

… However, this was a thought he couldn’t voice, given that the Longevity Tree was a Spirit Plant at the peak level eight… If it were angered, it could kill him with a single strike from one of its branches.

“If that’s the case, I entrust my dear little one to you,” the Longevity Tree finally decided, “You have to swear that you will not fail her.”

“Senior, I beg your pardon, but my aptitude is mediocre and my bloodline ordinary. Maybe you should look for someone more suitable.”

Wang Zong’an declined directly.

It was a joke. As the Young Clan Leader of the Wang family, the future inheritor of the great responsibility, how could he accept this after being humiliated time and again?

As for his life-bound Spirit Plant, he was still far away from reaching the Heavenly Human Realm, so there was no rush. Given the speed of growth and development of the Wang family, he might have the opportunity to encounter an exotic Spirit Plant of the same or even higher level in the future.

“Your bloodline is indeed a bit ordinary, but your modest attitude pleases me,” the Longevity Tree said, seemingly oblivious to the indignation of the young clan leader. “It’s time to make a decision. I have lived for so long, continuously absorbing the essence of heaven and earth and I have finally nurtured a drop of Yi Wood Essence, well-suited for your Yi Wood Bloodline. Whether it can elevate you to the level of Great Sky Pride, that will depend on your own fate.”

“This…”

Wang Zong’an was genuinely baffled by the unpredictable behaviour of the Longevity Tree.

He asked, “Can this Yi Wood Essence help my father to enhance his bloodline?”

“It cannot. The Yi Wood Essence only suits those with a Wood Type bloodline, and your father does not possess a true Wood Type bloodline. Even if used, the effect would be incredibly minimal,” the Longevity Tree explained. “Moreover, this Yi Wood Essence is extremely precious; took thousands of years for me to condense just this single drop. Plus, at present you only have a dual bloodline, perfectly fits the bill. If you don’t want it, it’s okay…”

“I want it! I want it!”

Wang Zong’an continually nodded his head.

It’s a joke, this is a heaven and earth treasure that can enhance bloodline potential; it would be foolish not to want it.

Isn’t the reason he is not yet breaking through the Spirit Platform Realm because he feels his bloodline is too weak and making the breakthrough wouldn’t be worth it?

The sense of humiliation he felt just a moment ago disappeared instantly. If he could obtain such a high-level heaven and earth treasure each time he was embarrassed, he would wish for more such embarrassments, and the more intense, the better.

It was already very lucky to get a Longevity Tree Spirit Seed, let alone a drop of Yi Wood Essence which could improve his bloodline!

“I swear that I’ll nurture your darling daughter well. When I ascend to the Heavenly Human Realm in the future, I will definitely refine her as my life-bound Spirit Plant. If I break this oath, you can dispose of me as you see fit.” Wang Zong’an promptly made his vow.

“Good, good!”

Upon receiving Wang Zong’an’s vow, the Longevity Tree was very pleased.

In the next instant.

One of the mature Longevity Fruit Spirit Seeds on its trunk disappeared instantly and appeared in Wang Zong’an’s hand.

Along with the Longevity Fruit Spirit Seed was a drop of liquid, vibrant green and brimming with vitality. Undoubtedly, this drop of liquid was the “Yi Wood Essence” mentioned by the Longevity Tree.

Wang Zong’an was elated. He watched as that drop of liquid silently merged into his body.

Instantly, a warm feeling enveloped him. It felt as if he was immersed in warm spring water, incredibly comfortable, prompting a sense of lethargy to wash over him.

He knew this was the Yi Wood Essence that was transforming his constitution.

This type of bloodline improvement was different from the violent process using the Bridal Clothes Blood Gu, which was aggressive and could lead to death if unsuccessful. It was happening subtly without making a sound. The advantage was that it caused no burden to his body. The downside was that it took longer to take effect.

Digesting this Yi Wood Essence wouldn’t be a quick process.

“Senior, my Senior Brothers are still in the middle of their Spirit Plant contest, vying for the right to nurture the Spirit Seeds,” Wang Zong’an said hesitantly, “Should we tell them that there’s no need to continue?”

“No need, let these brats make a fuss as they wish.” The Longevity Tree replied, “Hmph, these rabbits need not flatter themselves. Just with their abilities, do they fancy wooing my dear girl?”

“Alright then!”

Despite feeling a bit of sympathy for his Senior Brothers and Sisters, in the end, Wang Zong’an resisted mentioning anything.

Whenever he was out and about, his parents had advised him to stay low-key. It’s better to keep your wealth hidden. Even if there are enormous benefits, it’s best to keep it to oneself and enjoy it quietly.

While Wang Zong’an was silently absorbing the Yi Wood Essence, the competition between the Core Disciples was heating up on the other side. The attention of the ordinary disciples was drawn by the various strange Spirit Plants, and no one noticed the abnormal changes taking place with Wang Zong’an.
