Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2732: Chapter 4: When Bao Sheng Meets Yin Lingzhu_2

After finishing his speech, Wang Anye gracefully departed, leaving Wang Baosheng alone, staring at the long matchmaking list, unable to calm down for a long time.

”Uncle Baosheng, don’t worry.” Wang Youping poured him a cup of tea. ”This time, to ensure the quality of your matchmaking, I invited many people to help pull strings. Among them are Miss Jiang Mu Xian, Senior Yao Yumei, and even Crown Princess Qingyang, upon hearing the news, voluntarily selected a batch for you. Such treatment might not even be enjoyed by the Sky-blessed Imperial Family’s offspring.”

Despite Wang Baosheng having ten thousand objections in his heart, he could not disobey the Old Ancestor grandfather’s orders, and ultimately, he obediently followed arrangements to go on matchmaking.

Just like always, Wang Baosheng went on one blind date after another, living his days mechanically and numbly.

In the blink of an eye, two months passed. During this time, Wang Baosheng went on thirteen blind dates, each ending in failure.

Meanwhile...

Tianrui Holy City, Lower District.

It has been over six hundred years since Wang Shouzhe left the Sacred Domain, yet this place seems as if it will never change. It remains as mixed as ever with snakes and dragons, as thronged by all phases of society as before, with cultivators coming and going, having already replaced any familiar faces from back in the day.

[Hailong Gang]!

This is an underground syndicate that has risen to fame in the past hundred years, thriving and expanding rapidly.

Of course, this is partly because Wu Hailong, the gang leader, is a powerful Transcendent Void Realm cultivator, but it’s far more complex than that.

Rumor has it that when Wu Hailong was young, he was a fugitive from another Sacred Dynasty, hiding in the offshore regions of Tianrui Sacred Dynasty, mixing in the Turbulent Sea.

With decent strength and luck, he gained a foothold in the Turbulent Sea and made some reputation.

Over a hundred years ago, Wu Hailong was hunted down by enemies and fled madly into the most treacherous area offshore — the [Endless Heavenly Abyss]. It is a perilous place where even the True Immortal Realm would enter with no return, a location avoided by the Saint Emperor. There, the void and sea are shattered and intertwined, space is distorted and chaotic, as though everything is about to be devoured and strangled by endless darkness.

Many pursuers saw this scene and thought Wu Hailong was doomed, so they abandoned the chase and retreated.

Yet, a few years later, he miraculously returned alive, having luckily picked up a small piece of Chaos Spiritual Stone Ore.

He sold the Chaos Spiritual Stone through the Divine Treasure Hall, immediately obtaining over two hundred pieces of Immortal Spirit Stone.

He was also very smart, donating half the Immortal Spirit Stone to the reigning Crown Princess Qingyang seeking redemption and forgiveness for past crimes, and requested protection, while the other half was fully converted into fixed assets like estates and Spirit Fields.

Afterward, he settled in the Tianrui Sacred Dynasty, began proclaiming his ”legendary experience” in the Endless Heavenly Abyss, quickly gaining immense fame. Relying on this fame, he re-established the flag of the Hailong Gang and began engaging in proper maritime ventures.

With accumulated ”reputation” and familiarity with the Turbulent Sea, his maritime cargo ships have a much lower accident rate than other shipping associations, naturally making his business increasingly prosperous, profits generating more profits, gradually becoming a major player.

Nowadays, many Immortal Clan members wishing to transport goods in the Turbulent Sea area, do so with Wu Hailong for the sake of safety, further enhancing his reputation.

And the headquarters of the Hailong Gang is located in the Lower District.

At this moment...

Inside the Hailong Gang headquarters.

Wu Hailong was comfortably lying on a Taishi Chair in the courtyard, leisurely basking in the sun while sipping tea, alongside two beautiful maids serving fruits.

The sunlight warmed his body greatly, making him contentedly squint his eyes. He shook his crossed leg, feeling a sense of comfort and satisfaction.

Having lived most of his life, only the past hundred years felt like living as a human.

What pleased him the most was, after having found dozens of concubines one after another, finally, one concubine bore him a son.

This was incredibly precious~

One must know, the higher a cultivator’s cultivation base and Bloodline, the higher the difficulty of conceiving offspring. At his age and Bloodline level, failure to conceive was entirely normal; successful conception was a low-probability event.

Currently, this son was his precious darling.

He had already planned that, once his son grows up more, he would arrange a marriage from either a Second Class Prominent Family’s Direct Line or a First Grade Prominent Family’s Direct Vessel for him. From then on, his descendants, Wu Hailong’s children, would continue spreading branches and leaves, becoming proper scions of Prominent Families.

Wu Hailong thought more and more, feeling victorious and hopeful for the future.

Suddenly.

A slightly indifferent voice sounded in his ear: ”Wu Hailong?”

Wu Hailong jolted in shock, turning his head to stare, only to see two people standing not far away, unsure of when they arrived.

These two, one elderly and one young. The young one wore white clothes, with a Sword hanging at the waist, a refined young master around turbulent times; the elderly one had white hair and beard, a tall stature, yet stood a half-step back behind that young master, appearing much less in status.

Wu Hailong was, after all, an experienced ”Dragon across the River” with sharp insights. Seeing this stance, cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead.

He hurriedly dismissed the guards preparing to rush in and also sent away the maids, then got up to respectfully salute the two: ”Honored guests have arrived at the Hailong Gang, what is it you’d like me to serve? As long as I can manage it, I promise no second words.”
