Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

”Brother Zitong, isn’t this the Wang Family’s famous waste? Seeing him today, he truly lives up to his reputation!”

The Wang Family’s Second is named Wang Zitong, and after he finished speaking, before Wang Zilang could respond, a sharp-mouthed, wide-forehead man beside him spoke first, with a tone containing unmistakable mockery.

However, at this moment, neither Wang Zitong nor the speaker took the time to sense Wang Zilang’s Meridian Qi cultivation, because the reputation of the Wang Family’s Third Young Master as a waste was no secret in Yulong City.

”Second Brother, how did you end up with this guy from the Lu Family?”

When Wang Zilang turned his gaze to the speaker, his expression turned somewhat unpleasant, clearly not because of the speaker’s harshness, but because he already knew the person.

”Hmph, I, Wang Zitong, don’t need you, the Wang Family waste, to tell me what to do!”

However, just as Wang Zilang finished speaking, Wang Zitong seemed provoked, glancing around, then snorted coldly.

Despite the Wang Family’s dominance in Yulong City, its past chaos has caused many remarkable families to lie low.

For instance, the so-called Lu Family was once a formidable family in Yulong City, but due to the Wang Family’s dominance, they did not directly confront the Wang Family.

Yet their ambition never wavered, constantly seeking opportunities to pull the Wang Family down, and the current situation was undoubtedly a perfect opportunity for the Lu Family.

As for Wang Zitong, although he had remarkable talent and reached the Peak of Earth Bending Realm, he ranked second among the Wang Family’s younger generation and would never have the chance to become the Wang Family Patriarch.

In the Wang Family’s three brothers in Yulong City, the eldest, Wang Zifu, was thick-skinned with astounding talent, while the youngest was famously a waste, suffering from the Innate Pulse Cutting illness, enduring countless disdain and ridicule from childhood.

And Wang Zitong, due to his remarkable talent, has developed considerable ambition over the years, always wanting to pull down his elder brother Wang Zifu from the future Patriarch seat, leading to today’s situation.

With Wang Zitong’s individual strength, he wouldn’t dare attempt such deeds, but after gaining countless allies, the situation changed dramatically.

One ally was the Second Branch of the Wang Family among the elders, a direct brother of the current Patriarch of the Wang Family, childless and powerful. He promised to pass the Patriarch position to Wang Zitong once he became Wang Family Patriarch.

Regarding this ally, Wang Zitong believed without a doubt, although the Second Branch’s power slightly lagged compared to the current Patriarch, so Wang Zitong found another opportunity to team up with Lu Family, another strong family in Yulong City.

Like the Lu Family genius next to Wang Zitong, named Lu Lianheng, whose cultivation was on par with Wang Zitong, both at the Peak of Earth Bending Realm.

When they met, Wang Zitong hid it from his father and elder brother, initially thinking the third floor of the attic was still not secluded enough, yet unexpectedly encountered Wang Zilang there.

But Wang Zitong didn’t worry much, for he knew the Wang Family had long given up on this waste of a third brother. Although his Patriarch father and elder brother still had some old feelings, someone with Innate Pulse Cutting couldn’t stir any trouble.

”This waste of a third brother, seems like he can’t be left alive!”

As anger is born alongside courage, having his scheme exposed ignited a killing intent in Wang Zitong’s heart; his cold nature had long discarded trivial family ties.

However, with many in the attic’s third floor, Wang Zitong was inconvenient to act personally, so he signaled Lu Lianheng beside him, who instantly understood his intention.

Although the Lu Family’s plan against the Wang Family was already in action, Lu Lianheng, intent on minimizing trouble, also harbored a killing intent towards Wang Zilang at that moment.

But simply killing a waste of a Wang Family young master made Lu Lianheng feel that it was beneath him as a Lu Family genius, so he immediately turned his head.

”Xu Jia, go test this Wang Family waste young master and see if he’s made any progress.”

Thus, in the next moment, Lu Lianheng turned his head and directed a young guard-looking servant beside him, and upon hearing this, Yun Xiao also turned his gaze onto this person.

”Peak of Spirit Vein Realm?”

Upon observing, Yun Xiao, with the Power of Soul, naturally sensed his Meridian Qi cultivation immediately, his eyes shooting a strange gleam.

Knowing that after Yun Xiao cured Wang Zilang’s Innate Pulse Cutting, he infused a strand of Meridian Qi into him, allowing this former Wang Family waste young master to break through to the Peak of Spirit Vein Realm.

This was Meridian Qi transferred by Yun Xiao, its vastness unmatched by cultivators of the same level, coupled with the journey from Five Desolate Village to Yulong City, during which Wang Zilang, guided casually by Yun Xiao, had already grown substantially.

At least Yun Xiao believed that when facing a cultivator at the peak of the Spirit Vein Realm of the same level, Wang Zilang couldn’t possibly lose. And in the unlikely event that he did, wasn’t Yun Xiao there watching from the sidelines?

From the short exchange between the two sides, Yun Xiao had already guessed some things. Since he was repaying a lifesaving grace by helping Wang Zilang return to the family, he wouldn’t abandon it halfway.

Moreover, just by judging Wang Zitong and Lu Lianheng as mere rabble, Yun Xiao saw no reason to back down. Based on this little insight, Yun Xiao could also guess the level of cultivators that the so-called Wang Family possessed.

”Xu Jia, Captain of the Lu Family’s guard team!”

Seeing Lu Family’s Xu Jia step out without a word, Wang Zilang’s heart initially tightened. After all, during his time as the Wang Family’s disgrace, he had personally witnessed Xu Jia beat a cultivator at the Spirit Vein Realm Early Stage to death, making them cough up blood.

However, this brief apprehension in Wang Zilang’s heart flashed away, as he felt the Meridian Qi flowing differently within him this time. It filled him with infinite confidence.

Of course, the biggest source of this confidence was the rough-clothed young man beside him, still sipping wine. He believed with Yun Xiao around, there would be no danger for him whatsoever.

Wang Zilang, newly having possessed Meridian Qi cultivation, was eager to test his combat strength. Before him, Xu Jia, also at the peak of the Spirit Vein Realm, was undoubtedly the best test subject.

Unfortunately, Xu Jia had no idea that Wang Zilang was now completely different from before. He merely thought he was dealing with a famous wastrel from the Wang Family and assumed that the young master had given him, the Guard Team Captain, too much credit by assigning him this task.

For Lu Lianheng’s command, Xu Jia dared not defy it in the slightest. Even if the opponent might not withstand a single move, he was determined to complete the task diligently.

”Speak, how do you wish to die?”

Xu Jia stepped forward a few paces. Seeing Wang Zilang standing unflinchingly not far ahead, a shadow flickered in his eyes. His deep voice caused many to feel a chill in their hearts.

After all, on the third floor of this pavilion, besides the conflicting parties, there were many others present, all automatically assuming the role of spectators, enjoying this thrilling drama that didn’t involve them.

”Second Brother, will you just stand by and watch your younger brother get bullied by others?”

Regarding Xu Jia’s words, Wang Zilang didn’t pay much attention but instead turned his gaze to Wang Zitong. This question also left the latter with a rather awkward expression.

No matter what, Wang Zitong was Wang Zilang’s second brother. In such a public setting, with his brother being bullied and him standing silent, it was unjustifiable.

”Hmph, Wang Zilang, you’ve been unable to cultivate for so many years, long expelled by Father from the family. Now you dare return to Yulong Village without permission. If I don’t personally punish you on the spot, I’ve already been merciful. You should pray for your own good fortune!”

As if catching a glimpse of the onlookers’ expressions, Wang Zitong hardened his heart. His words, though ambiguous, offered no room for refutation.

After all, Wang Zilang’s reputation as a waste was no secret in Dragon City. His relegation to Five Desolate Village was something many Wang Family members personally spread around.

Being the Third Young Master of the Wang Family, yet relegated to the remote Five Desolate Village, what that implied was simple for anyone with any sense to decipher; it meant the Wang Family had already abandoned him.

For some time now, cultivators in Dragon City almost forgot the name Wang Zilang. Who knew that today, upon this pavilion, they would see this wastrel young master again.

However, some sharp-minded individuals thought of deeper layers. After all, though Wang Zitong’s words seemed reasonable, since both had bloodline bonds, there must be something more to such actions.

At this moment, no one stepped forward to defend Wang Zilang. First, it wasn’t their business; second, few dared provoke the joint forces of the Wang and Lu Families.

”Tsk tsk, you’re truly my good Second Brother!”

Wang Zilang’s pure nature didn’t mean he was naïve. After listening to Wang Zitong’s words, he understood some things and let go of the entanglement over blood ties.

”Enough talk, prepare to die!”

Just when Wang Zilang wanted to say more, Xu Jia lost patience. For a wastrel to ignore him was unbearable.

Hearing Xu Jia’s loud shout, a thick Meridian Qi aura started emanating from this peak Spirit Vein Realm cultivator’s hands, and with a swoosh, he charged towards Wang Zilang.

At this moment, everyone’s eyes were on Wang Zilang, truly curious to see how this famously wastrel young master of the Wang Family would handle such a powerful strike.
