Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1395: Chapter 49: The Great Emperor’s Freeloading! Shou Zhe’s Set_3 Chapter 1395: Chapter 49: The Great Emperor’s Freeloading! Shou Zhe’s Set_3 “These Magical Treasures, Divine Spiritual Treasures, and the Dao Weapon Legion Flag, they are all from the Wang family, aren’t they? Why is there still a rental fee?”

Wang Shouzhe said, as if it were the most natural thing in the world, “Those are the private property of our Wang family, and they’re not cheap to rent out… Since it is everybody’s battalion, where is the rationale for contributing to the military without compensation?”

“Shouzhe, I understand now,” Liu Yuanhui said with a look of grievance, “I see that you are just trying to get everyone to share the expenses because you know you can’t afford to support this militia troop. You deliberately laid out the bait, luring us into your trap.”

“Big brother~ Protecting the common interests of Changning and the Prominent Families is not just a matter for my Wang family alone,” Wang Shouzhe said cheerfully, “Moreover, although this battalion requires a large investment, once it is formed, the returns in the later stage will be immense. If you, big brother, want to represent the Liu Family and withdraw, I have no objections. Our Wang family can take over your shares of the Liu Family.”

“Don’t you wish!” Liu Yuanhui gritted his teeth bitterly, “If our Liu Family were to miss out on such a grand plan, I, Liu Yuanhui, would become the sinner of the Liu Family. Is it not just an investment? Our Liu Family can still squeeze out the funds if we grit our teeth.”

Building a military troop always involves significant expenses.

Moreover, the militia troop established by Wang Shouzhe is the crème de la crème type that even Emperor Longchang only dares to dream about. Once it is fully established, it will sweep across battlefields, and even a lone True Immortal Realm might have to make way.

For this reason, even though the cost is so high it makes the wealthy In-laws Alliance wail, no one is withdrawing.

Upon hearing all this, Wang Gui was left speechless and dared not allow Wang Shouzhe any more special treatment, deciding instead to quickly take his great-grandson to join the assessment.

Wang Shouzhe did not let them come for nothing; he prepared some Spirit Beast meat, Spirit Stones, and some low-grade Dan medicine for Wang Gui as a form of indirect support.

And so it went.

The militia troop’s assessment was underway with great vigor, screening for talents through various challenges.

While Wang Shouzhe entered his usual leisurely state, spending his days cultivating, tending to flowers, and fiddling with plant seeds.

In recent days.

Having just taken on a master, Wang Ningxi, along with others from the Sacred Land and the lineage of True Fire Enlightened One, was often discussing cultivation technique issues in Wang Shouzhe’s courtyard.

Since Wang Ningxi’s cultivation technique involved both water and fire components, Tianhe Enlightened One, Tianlang Enlightened One, and the current vice-chairman of the Academic Palace of Longzuo, Primordial Water Master, were all invited to provide guidance to Wang Ningxi.

Wang Shouzhe, meanwhile, continued to research his new grain species in his Map of Rivers and Mountains.

“Ningxi, my beloved disciple,” the cheerful True Fire Enlightened One couldn’t stop smiling in these days.

Originally, he was feeling down from his unsuccessful involvement in the contest for the title of Saint and came to the Wang family to unwind and also to earn some money to make up for his losses.

Unexpectedly, he encountered a genius like Wang Ningxi.

After his efforts, he finally took the disciple he admired under his wing. To his delight, he discovered that not only was Wang Ningxi’s Bloodline Talent exceptional, his Wisdom was extraordinarily unique.

“Master,” Wang Ningxi was drawing a complex diagram of meridians, “My idea is to gradually merge the water and fire Mysterious Energy through these two meridians and acupoint nodes…”

Moments later.

Tianlang Enlightened One, Tianhe Enlightened One, and others looked at Wang Ningxi with unusual eyes, impressed by the young man’s inferential ability. Yet, it was only someone with durable meridians and a vast Qi Sea like him who could cultivate the Cold Flame Jue. Others, even with the same bloodline, would find it difficult.

This child Ningxi has boundless potential.

True Fire Enlightened One, that lucky fellow, has found himself a true treasure.

“My disciple Ningxi has the makings of a Great Emperor,” True Fire Enlightened One was increasingly pleased with Wang Ningxi, exclaiming with excitement. Glancing at his former “beloved disciple” Zhen Shicong by the side, he now found him less pleasing to the eye.

“The next step for the Cold Flame Jue is to resolve the transition from Spirit Platform Realm to Heavenly Human Realm,” Wang Ningxi started to list the problems encountered.

The present experts were indeed not to be underestimated; all were well-experienced and began to help solve various issues.

Soon, the difficult questions troubling Wang Ningxi were being resolved one by one.

Until the last major issue, everyone was lost in thought, unable to find a solution.

At that moment.

Liu Ruolan arrived with several maids, each carrying a tray of snacks she had personally made. These were made using a flour from a Sacred Grade Spirit Grain called Purple Jade Sacred Spirit Wheat, combined with various dried Spirit Melon fruits and Ruolan’s secret sauces.

As the head lady of the Wang family, Liu Ruolan provided the esteemed guests with a gracious culinary welcome, “Esteemed predecessors from the Sacred Lands, these are my husband Shouzhe’s favorite Purple Jade Layered Cakes, please take a break in the middle of our session, as these cultivation techniques cannot be rushed.”

The crowd’s faces changed immediately, and they chuckled awkwardly, “Ruolan, why bother yourself with such tasks? Just let the cooks handle this sort of work.”

“How could I?” Liu Ruolan replied earnestly, “As the head lady of the Wang family, it is only respectful for me to cook personally for the honored guests.”

Then.

The group of big shots ate the high-quality Purple Jade Layered Cakes, feeling a mix of laughter and tears—laughter because the ingredients were so rare and precious, yet tears because the taste was really… beyond description.

It’s said that Wang Shouzhe loved to eat it too; one can’t help but wonder how unique his taste is.
