Chapter 749: Chapter 101 Old Ancestor Shou Zhe (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_3

Wang Ying Xuan just had her talent tested this year and thanks to her Mid-Rank ‘A’ Level, she is about to reach Heavenly Proud Level. Such innate talents are considered top amongst Wang Shouzhe’s offspring.

As a result, her maternal family’s ‘Old Ancestor’, Fang Youan, pleased as punch, promptly paid a visit.

The present Fang Youan is far from average, his cultivation base has reached the ninth layer of the Heavenly Human Realm. If he pours his efforts into secluded cultivation for a few decades, he has a fair chance of achieving the Purple Abode Realm.

He personally brings along a Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill, a Treasure Pill, and a well-prepared Bridal Clothes Blood Gu King!

He said that he saved these all for Wang Ying Xuan, in the hopes that in the future she could cultivate at the Academic Palace.

And quietly started promoting the benefits of the Academic Palace to Wang Ying Xuan at every turn…

As for Fang Youan’s “tricks and tactics”, Wang Shouzhe had already seen through them.

The previous Fang Youan had been observing and assessing in secrecy, speculating on the possibility that Shouzhe had the ability to suppress the dreadful side effects of the Bridal Clothes Blood Gu King.

Thus he went to great lengths to obtain a Bridal Clothes Blood Gu King early on. Furthermore, he drew on resources from both Fang Family and his own connections to acquire a Treasure Pill.

Under this arrangement, should Wang Shouzhe really have the ability to neutralize the side effects of the Bridal Clothes Blood Gu King, then Wang Ying Xuan could possibly rise to the Great Heavenly Pride Level!

If Wang Ying Xuan attended the Academy, the Fang Family could justifiably allocate a portion of resources to cultivate their granddaughter. And this Great Heavenly Pride granddaughter would, as a result, be considered half of the Fang Family’s, wouldn’t she?

Having such a powerful grand-daughter as their backing, the future development and existence of the Fang family would be much more secure.

This trick is essentially approach similar to Wang Shouzhe’s experience of sweet-talking the Firefox Old Ancestor…

As for why Fang Youan did not cultivate the Great Heavenly Pride within the Fang Family itself?

The reason is simple. Firstly, he feared that Wang Shouzhe might be reluctant to use his full power to neutralize the effect, an operation that couldn’t be made widely known. Secondly, bringing up a Great Heavenly Pride to the Divine Power Territory is not so easily accomplished.

The required resources are as vast as the sea…the current Fang Family can’t afford it.

Let’s not speak of the Fang Family.

Even for the present Wang Family, cultivating a Great Heavenly Pride to the Divine Power Territory is a tough task. What Wang Shouzhe was betting on was that the more powerful the Wang family becomes, the stronger their earning abilities will be in the future, enabling them to fill the huge gap.

With the initial development of the Qing Luo Guard coming to an end, it would not be long before they could turn the tide and enter a beneficial cycle. After freeing up their hands, they could then invest their energy into expanding their territories, adding to the foundation of the Wang family.

Upon this thought,

Wang Shouzhe’s confidence in the future doubled, and he affectionately tousled his little granddaughter Wang Ying Xuan’s hair: “Good, good, good, Grandpa agrees with you. But forget the Longzuo Academy, when you turn eighteen, Grandfather will send you directly to the Sacred Land.’

Although the Fang Family wanted to take a little bit of advantage and hitch a ride on the Great Heavenly Pride. Wang Shouzhe was not opposed to it, after all, they are families related through marriage. And within Ying Xuan’s body, the Fang Family’s bloodline flowed as well.

On the whole, compared to the local academies, the resources and stage of the Sacred Land are much broader. Previously, due to the lack of familial resources, they could only be sent to Longzuo Academy.

But now the Wang Family is not what they used to be. It was time to open up the Sacred Land.

“Great, thank you Grandpa.” Wang Ying Xuan happily gave Wang Shouzhe a kiss.

Off to the side, the now nine-year-old Wang Anye, looked enviously at his aunt Ying Xuan. He also yearned for the academic life.

Unfortunately, being the eldest great-grandson of the Wang Family, he is destined never to truly become a disciple of the academy. He could only dutifully stay at home, waiting to inherit the family business. His life, Wang Anye’s, was doomed to be dull and monotonous, with the end visible…

…

They were in the middle of a conversation.

From the courtyard outside came the respectful voice of Wang Shizhao, “Grandfather, Brother Shihai from the Southern Desert is requesting to meet you.”

“Shihai is here? Let him in directly,” Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, not bothering to get up from his lounge chair. With his current cultivation base and powerful divine mind power, he could easily cover the entire yard, and not even the slightest wind or movement could escape his notice.

Just as his words fell.

Wang Shizhao led Wang Shihai and Wang Mei Tao into the courtyard. Then the two of them saluted and said, “Shihai greets Fourth Grandfather. It’s been many years, how has Fourth Grandfather’s health been?”

“Mei Tao pays her respects to the Old Ancestor.” Wang Mei Tao gave a very sincere nod, her attitude extremely devout.

Technically, Wang Shouzhe was at the same level as her great-grandfather. However, due to the long lifespan of cultivators in the Celestial Realm and the Purple Abode Realm, the generational difference could often be quite significant. Therefore, anyone beyond the level of a great-grandparent was usually referred to as an old ancestor.

“Who is this girl…?” Wang Shouzhe was slightly surprised – Mei Tao – the name sounded somewhat familiar.

Wang Shihai had a embarrassed look on his face, just as he was about to explain.

Wang Mei Tao cheerfully chimed in first, “Old Ancestor, I’m the young girl you met in the main house in the Southern Desert all those years ago. Your Purple Gold Note greatly assisted me.”

“I remember now…” The corner of Wang Shouzhe’s mouth twitched twice and then he looked at Wang Shihai with an unusual gaze.

Wang Shihai coughed awkwardly a couple of times and then hurriedly took out a gift list, “Fourth Grandfather, this is the list of gifts that my father has prepared for the promotion of the Wang family. Please take a look. Due to the large number of gifts and the long distance, they have already set off in advance. They should arrive in Changning soon.”

“Clan Chief Zong Hao is really thoughtful,” Wang Shouzhe received the list and glanced over it, seeing that it was all well-refined iron, along with a large amount of high-quality livestock such as cows, sheep, and horses, amongst which there were spirit kind horses and cows.

It’s clear that the Southern Desert Wang family has taken the promotion gift to Changning Wang Clan very seriously. The gifts given are all basic resources that the Wang family urgently needs. Especially the iron resources, the Wang family has always been short of iron.

“Shizhao, handle this matter,” Wang Shouzhe handed the gift list to Wang Shizhao.

“Yes, Grandfather,” Wang Shizhao took the list and stood aside. He is mature and steady, and this is a trivial matter for him.

The maids served immortal tea and spirit fruit, and Wang Shouzhe personally sat with relatives Wang Shihai and Wang Mei Tao, chatting about family matters.

“Shihai, I heard that Ninth Uncle Dingxin has recently ascended to the Purple Abode Realm, It shouldn’t be long before our Southern Desert Wang Clan hosts a Purple Abode Banquet, right?” Wang Shouzhe asked casually.

“Hehe, Fourth Grandfather you truly have ears and eyes everywhere,” Wang Shihai picked up a spirit fruit and ate it with relish, then said, “Ninth Grand Uncle’s intention is to stabilize his current realm a bit, and then hold the Purple Abode Banquet in three to five years.”

Wang Dingxin is the successor to the Purple Abode that the Southern Desert Wang Clan has cultivated. He is now close to three hundred years old and is at the prime age for those in the Purple Abode Realm. His successful ascension means that the transition of the Southern Desert Wang Clan to the Purple Abode has been very smooth, and their glory can be continued for at least a few hundred more years.

Unfortunately, the first ancestor of the Southern Desert is nearly seven hundred years old and may not live much longer. Therefore, the Southern Desert Wang Clan’s current structure cannot yet be called a dual Purple Abode strong Fifth Grade.

“When the time comes, I’ll personally visit the Southern Desert Wang Clan and congratulate Ninth Uncle Dingxin,” Wang Shouzhe was quite happy about this matter. His kinsman Wang Dingxin achieving the Purple Abode was indeed something to be proud of.

“Shihai will definitely give Fourth Grandfather proper hospitality,” Wang Shihai was overflowing with enthusiasm, but suddenly his expression dimmed as he sighed regretfully, “It’s just that the Fairy of Tianyan Boat, is nowhere to be found now. Otherwise, I could have invited Fourth Grandfather to visit Dong Cha Cha Lake again together. Without the Fairy of Tianyan, Dong Cha Cha Lake has lost its soul~”

“Well, I didn’t expect Wang Shihai you would still remember me?” A cold, quiet voice sounded from behind.

Wang Shihai hurriedly turned around, looking as if he had just been struck by lightning. The woman was wearing an ice-blue long dress and a mysterious veil, and if it wasn’t the Fairy of Tianyan, who could it be?

“How is it possible?” Wang Shihai looked at Tianyan, then looked at Wang Shouzhe, and couldn’t help inhaling sharply, his mind buzzing.

Fourth Grandfather, you, you, you actually… hid the Fairy of Tianyan away?
