Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1212: Chapter 1 The Start of the Waste Stream_2 Chapter 1212: Chapter 1 The Start of the Waste Stream_2 “`

However, Lady Bilian of the Yuwen Clan, who had always been keen-nosed, took the Firefox Old Ancestor with her and pestered Wang Shouzhe day after day. She was like, “If you don’t agree, I’ll just move in and stay with you every day.”

“`

“`

In the end, she successfully sent the legitimated daughter of the Shangguan Clan onto the Wang family’s boat. Of course, this was also because that young lady from the Shangguan Clan was quite extraordinary, able to match Wang Ningxi, which was why Wang Shouzhe had agreed to it.

“`

“`

But fate played tricks on them.

“`

“`

“Young Master.” A servant boy around Wang Ningxi’s age, Wang Ji, pale-faced, pleaded earnestly, “You can’t call off the engagement by yourself. If Old Master finds out, he may beat you to death.”

“`

“`

Wang Ningxi, however, was as calm as ever, “I am now crippled and blocked, my Qi Sea sealed. I cannot even defeat you, a mere Vital Energy Refining Realm Level Four servant. Dragging Miss Shangguan into this with my broken body and ruining her life is simply unprincipled. If my father wants to hit me because of this, then so be it.”

“`

“`

At first, he had still held hope for his “condition” but as both Old Ancestor and Li Xian Great-Grandmother took turns to help, they could not find a way to heal him in two years.

“`

“`

He had come to understand that his problem was very difficult to solve.

“`

“`

“But…” Wang Ji was puzzled, “If you miss out on Miss Shangguan, could you ever marry another distinguished lady from a Prominent Family?”

“`

“`

Wang Ningxi laughed helplessly, “Wang Ji, with this body of mine, marrying any girl would be harming her. Anyway, my parents are still young; they can always have more children.”

“`

“`

“What about you?” Wang Ji looked incredibly disheartened.

“`

“`

“I’ve pretty much learned everything there is from the Clan School. I plan to take the early exams and graduate this year,” Wang Ningxi replied, “The good thing about me is that my God Sense was strong before I tried to assault the Spiritual Platform, and since the Spiritual Platform had already begun to take shape during the challenge, my body remains weak, but my God Sense can still be used.”

“`

“`

“Moreover, since my maternal family is the Gongye Artifact Refining Prominent Family, I’ll go find a job at the Refining Artifact Headquarters and do whatever I’m able to, as a way to make up for the resources the family lost on me. But in the end, I still owe the family.”

“`

“`

Although his Spiritual Platform had already been opened, his body’s constitution had never transformed or evolved; in essence, he was even worse off than an average Qi Refinement Cultivator. To live to seventy or eighty years old would be considered lucky for him, and his contributions to the family in his lifetime would be very limited; hence, he spoke of being indebted.

“`

“`

“You mustn’t say that, Young Master. No one despises you,” Wang Ji consoled him urgently, “The Old Ancestors of our Wang family and those from the Gongye family are still trying to find a way for you. Maybe one day, you’ll be back to normal.”

“`

“`

“I know my own situation best.” As he spoke, Wang Ningxi finished writing a letter, sealed it with wax, and handed it to Wang Ji, “Make sure you send this out as usual, or you won’t need to stay by my side — you can go pioneer new lands abroad. You know my temper; I always mean what I say.”

“`

“`

“Yes, Young Master.” Wang Ji’s heart quivered, and he took the letter obediently.

“`

“`

After all of this, Wang Ningxi turned to the person behind him and said, “Old Ancestor Shouwei, I’d like to take a walk to Xinping Town. Come with me.”

“`

“`

“Yes, Young Master Ningxi.” An inconspicuous “middle-aged man” answered calmly.

“`

“`

This was one of the family’s Artifact Refining guardian puppets, a treasure obtained from the conscription office of the Divine Martial Dynasty. Though it possessed only the strength of the early stages of the Spiritual Platform Realm, its protective capabilities were very strong, and compared to the common Spiritual Platform Realm puppets on the market, it was much smarter and more efficient.

“`

“`

No wonder, products of the Divine Martial Dynasty were never rubbish.

“`

“`

Wang Shouwei had also made many contributions during the Wang family’s rise. However, his strength had long since fallen behind the front runners. Therefore, his current primary duty was to protect the younger generations of the family.

“`

“`

Besides Wang Shouwei, Wang Ningxi also took the Top Grade Spiritual Artifact, the Autumn Water Sword. It was once the saber of his Great-Grandmother Liu Ruolan during her Spiritual Platform Realm days and was later passed down to Wang Liyao, who eventually returned it to the family treasure house.

“`

“`

Passed down through generations, the Autumn Water Sword had now come into the hands of Wang Ningxi.

“`

“`

As the Autumn Water Sword was a Spiritual Artifact and Wang Ningxi’s God Sense was still relatively strong, he could barely protect himself with it.

“`

“`

Later.

“`

“`

Under the escort of Wang Shouwei, Wang Ningxi visited Xinping Town and Xin An Town, touring them for over a month until the Family Head, Wang Shouzhe, sent someone to summon him back.

“`

“`

He then returned to the Main Residence as quickly as possible and went to visit Old Ancestor as ordered.

“`

“`

In the courtyard of Wang Shouzhe.

“`

“`

He was comfortably sipping tea, with a group of children still gathered around his knees, listening to him tell those timeless tales.

“`

“`

And his appearance was still that of a carefree young man in his thirties, his bearing and eyes as deep as the sea, inscrutable to others.

“`

“`

“Ningxi pays his respects to Old Ancestor.” Wang Ningxi bowed gracefully.

“`

“`

Upon seeing Wang Ningxi, all the children also paid their respects: “Greetings to Uncle Forty-Seven/Uncle Forty-Seven/Grandpa Forty-Seven.”

“`

“`

Wang Ningxi greeted the group of little ones with a smile and took out some small toys from his Storage Ring to give to the children, feeling a warm glow in his heart as he thought back to his own childhood spent in joy under Old Ancestor’s care.

“`

“`

“Ningxi is back,” Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, gesturing for the children to go study in the study room, then he drank tea with Wang Ningxi in the pavilion and casually chatted about household trivialities.

“`

“`

When Wang Ningxi was drinking his tea, he seemed a bit uneasy.
