Protect Our Clan Leader

“Fourth Grandfather…” Wang Shihai swallowed, “Is your Changning Wang Clan really that powerful?

Why…

why did you not mention this earlier?”

Huangfu Feifei’s bright eyes were constantly darting towards Wang Shouzhe.

This lord Wang was not only handsome and elegant-looking like an exiled immortal, but his cultivation level and prowess were unfathomable for someone his age.

Above all, was he also the young and capable head of a prominent family?

However, the thought of Wang Shouzhe already being a family head made her eyes flash with disappointment.

… Any noble family head would surely have a wife and children.

It was a law essential for the survival of any family: the Clan Leader, the eldest wife, the rightful first son, and the rightful first daughter; these are all fundamental to forming a family.

And each has their own status and responsibilities.

Against the several pairs of intense eyes, Wang Shouzhe was surprisingly calm, lifting up a glass of wine and said: “My visit to the Southern Desert served two purposes, firstly to attend the auction, and secondly to appreciate the local customs here.”

“The Southern Desert Wang family and Huangfu family have been two influential and dominating clans in the Southern Desert for thousands of years.

It’s hard to count the numerous hardships they have conquered over the generations and the heroic deeds passed down.

Now, how can our infinitesimal achievements in the Wang Clan be worth bragging about compared to theirs?”

“That’s true…” A sense of pride flashed across Wang Shihai’s face, “My Southern Desert Wang family has its roots in the Southern Desert, we pioneered this barren land.

Our ancestors sacrificed and contributed a lot.”

“But Fourth Grandfather, considering the achievements of your Changning Wang Clan, they are hardly typical for a 7th-rank Aristocratic Family.

It seems we have been neglecting you during this occasion…” At this point, Wang Shihai’s face turned red, feeling slightly embarrassed.

The interactions between prominent families are often filled with many protocols.

If the Changning Wang Clan were a typical 7th-rank Aristocratic Family, his attendance would have been considered appropriate.

However, given the strength and size of the clan mentioned by Lady Tian Yan, the proper courtesy would have been for his father to have personally attended the entire event.

At the very least, the Young Clan Leader of the Southern Desert Wang Clan should have been present.

“Not at all, not at all.” Wang Shouzhe laughed, “After all, my Wang Clan is merely 7th rank, and Shihai, you are the Bloodline of Sky Pride, destined to be an elder figure in the clan, so do not belittle yourself.

Besides, I quite like you, lad.”

“Hehe, thanks Fourth Grandfather for the compliment.” Wang Shihai was visibly pleased.

Though he wasn’t the Young Clan Leader, he was indeed one of the rare Sky Prides, and his future achievements would certainly be much greater than those of the Young Clan Leader.

“I presume your cultivation, Fourth Grandfather, has reached the advanced stage of the Spiritual Platform Realm?

If my guess is correct, you must also be of the Heavenly Proud Level bloodline, right?”

“And not just any ordinary Heavenly Proud Level bloodline, either.” Huangfu Feifei added, a deep look in her eyes.

“Oh well, it’s more or less the same as yours.” Wang Shouzhe modestly replied, “Let us strive together to attain the Purple Abode Realm as soon as possible.”

Attain the Purple Abode Realm at the earliest?

“Fourth Grandfather, you sure dare to say that?

Is reaching the Purple Abode Realm that easy?

And considering I am just in my twenties…” Wang Shihai rolled his eyes.

Although he did have the Sky Pride bloodline and the journey to the Purple Abode would be possible with sufficient resources, it was still a considerable prospect.

Even for the Sky Pride, it takes eighty to ninety years to ascend to Celestial being, followed by two to three hundred more years of cultivation, perhaps even the chance to break through to the Purple Abode Realm.

The process is too lengthy, and any accident could occur.

Whether it’s a reckless obsession, bad luck, severe injury that affects one’s foundation, and so on, any of these could impede the journey to the Purple Abode Realm.

Hence, despite their high statuses, the Sky Prides are merely Purple Abode seeds.

Not every seed can grow into a towering tree.

Similarly, not every Purple Abode seed can become a Purple Abode Realm Cultivator.

“To the contrary, I think Lord Wang is correct; we Sky Prides should indeed be more ambitious.

The earlier we reach the Purple Abode Realm, the less the family pressure will be.” A gleam of confidence flashed in Huangfu Feifei’s eyes.

“Clap!

Clap!

Clap!”

Several claps echoed, and Lady Tian Yan lamented wistfully: “How I envy you Sky Prides born into prominent families…Ah, poor me…” Her deep sigh was truly pitiful, quite touching to anyone who heard.

Wang Shihai was moved, and was just about to say something when Wang Shouzhe interrupted him: “Lady Tian Yan.

This wine is pleasantly sweet when tasted, with a long-lasting aftertaste.

Not bad, not bad.

Don’t tell me it’s a homebrew?”

“Tian Yan…

senior?” Lady Tian Yan’s eyes, full of deep resentment, were fixed on Wang Shouzhe.

It seemed that resentment was brewing…Why did this man always interrupt her rhythm and plot, leaving her feeling oppressed?

“Senior is a Tianren Realm Cultivator, and even if you are a Sky Pride, you should be at least eighty to ninety years old, right?” Wang Shouzhe’s eyes glinted with an uncanny light, “Is it inappropriate to call you senior?”

“No-th-ing-is-in-ap-pro-pri-ate!” Underneath Tian Yan’s veil, her face twitched uncontrollably, suppressing the urge to beat Wang Shouzhe.

“This wine is called ‘Hundreds of Flowers Drunken’; it is a floral wine brewed using several Spirit Flowers.

If Lord Shouzhe likes it, please drink more.”

“This wine is good, it’s worth savoring a few times,” praised Wang Shouzhe.

“If Lord does not wish to hear about my past, is it because you detest the fact that I come from a humble background?” Lady Tian Yan felt indignation, her tone growing colder and colder.

“Of course not…

We are here to enjoy ourselves.

We should avoid telling sorrowful stories that carry heavy negative energy, lest it dampens the mood for wine.

Besides, among the hundred or so boats on Dong Cha Cha Lake, which maiden does not have a tragic backstory?” Wang Shouzhe took a sip of ‘Hundreds of Flowers Drunken’, and said with a playful tone.
