Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 111: Chapter 100: Promotion! Old Ancestor Xiaohan (4ooo)_2

It let out a meek growl, its body barely bigger than a cat, far from having the mighty roar of a tiger in the woods.

Its roar woke Wang Licui up. She grabbed Little Tiger Huahua’s neck and criticized, “Huahua, how many times have I told you? Don’t make noise when I’m studying. Don’t you know you’re disturbing me?”

With a face full of sullenness, Little Tiger Huahua let out a few whimpers in its defense.

“Oh, you’re grown-up and dare to talk back now. Ha, deducting five, no, ten Qian Gold.” Wang Licui took out a small notebook and wrote it down, “Hmm, Huahua, you now owe me six hundred Qian Gold. Remember, work hard and strive to pay off the debt.”

Little Tiger Huahua looked distressingly at its mistress. How could it owe so much? It couldn’t even count up to such a large number. After all, the important thing was that it owed a lot.

The corner of Wang Shouzhe’s mouth twitched.

Is it really okay to bully a young fierce beast like this?

Tigers are very smart. Once they reach level three maturity, they are very quick-witted, not inferior to ordinary humans. If they are trained by a human beast master, they can even read and write.

It’s said that a level five beast is clever and cunning, and it can communicate with humans in many ways. Some level five beasts can even talk like humans.

Therefore, beasts and spirit beasts in this world are not simple. They are not just wild creatures.

As Wang Shouzhe was mumbling to himself, he noticed someone approaching from the corner of his eye. It was… Fourth Uncle… Was he dreaming?

Upon realizing the situation, she was struck as if by lightning and her face turned pale, “Fourth Uncle, why, why are you here?”

In front of everyone, Wang Shouzhe gave her face and just chuckled, “I came to the farm to handle some business and just took the opportunity to visit you.”

He looked around, curled his eyes and said with a smile, “Nicely done, you’re doing a good job here.”

“Well, well, well…” Wang Licui stuttered, quickly wiped the Taishi chair’s seat, “Fourth Uncle, please sit. I’ll report to you about my recent work and studies.” Wang Shouzhe sat on the Taishi chair. Ah, this chair was comfortable. Its ergonomic design meant it was perfect for a nap. He thought, it might not be a bad idea to get one for his study room, where he could take a nap after reading.

As for enjoying life, no one plays better than Licui.

“What are you staring at? Clan Leader is here, hurriedly bring the roast,” Wang Licui turned back and instructed. “Hey, third brother, get one of my spirit rats, no, two, no, three. Roast them for the Clan Leader to try.”

When she mentioned having to give away three rats, she had gritted her teeth a bit. It showed just how far she was willing to go just to please the Clan Leader.

Wang Shouzhe didn’t refuse. At least she acknowledged to honor elders, so he let her carry on.

He decided to take a nap. Making preparations for Heavenly Spirit Pills had kept him up for two days. Although his strength had already reached the level seven Qi Refinement Stage, he was still a bit tired.

This Taishi chair was indeed comfortable.

He dozed off for about half an hour.

Upon waking up, he felt refreshed, and his nose was greeted by a pleasant fragrance.

“Fourth Uncle, you’re awake? You have been working so hard for the family,” Wang Licui poured flatteries on him, giving him a shoulder rub, acting the part of a considerate youngster perfectly.

Then she presented the Spirit Rat roast. Wang Shouzhe tasted it, the flavor was pretty good. The meat was delicate and tender, accompanied by an aroma of Baiyu ZhiLan Spirit Rice.

After finishing one rat, he desired for more and was about to grab a second. But he noticed that Wang Licui, too, had finished her own rat and was already eating the second one.

Wang Shouzhe was dumbfounded. So he wasn’t the only one meant to eat the three roasted rats? Also, didn’t this girl eat too much of the roast earlier?

With Wang Shouzhe’s stare on her, Wang Licui stopped her hand and blinked her large eyes at Wang Shouzhe, seeming very puzzled. Was one rat not enough for Fourth Uncle?

Then, with a hardened heart, she ripped her rat’s front leg off and gave it to

Wang Shouzhe.

Thankyou!

Wang Shouzhe’s heart was filled with frustration as though a herd of animals was on a stampede inside him.

Inside the secret shelter,

Wang Xiaohan’s attempt to reach the Spirit Platform Realm was at its final stages. His body energy was in full swing. His pores opened, and his body was shrouded in a mist.

After what felt an eternity, the mist began to recede back into his body.

He opened his eyes, and a strong aura erupted from him.

“I did it! I, Wang Xiaohan, did it.”

For a moment, tears gushed out of his eyes. It had been twenty years, a full twenty years.

Ever since he had failed in his costly attempt to ascend to the Spirit Platform Realm, he had felt like a sinner in his family. From then on, he had led a secluded life in the Prosperous Farm, where he cultivated Baiyu ZhiLan Spirit Rice for his family.

A long roar echoed, causing a subtle shake in the cave. He felt a huge transformation within him, felt a strand of wonderful spiritual sense within his spirit platform, a strand filled with a multitude of miraculous functions. Moreover, with spiritual sense, he could now manipulate spiritual artifacts. A Spirit Platform Realm practitioner who has a spiritual artifact is often much stronger than one who doesn’t.

Soon, he curbed his inner jubilance. He took a devout bath, washing off the stains from his advancement.

Afterward, Wang Xiaohan, dressed in coarse hemp clothing, walked out of the hidden storage cave.

At this moment.

Old Ancestor Longyan, Wang Shouzhe, and Wang Licui were already waiting at the entrance of the cave.

As Wang Xiaohan stepped into the sunlight, it was clear that his vigour was completely different. His vitality was overflowing, his complexion rosy like a baby’s, and his eyes sharp as a hawk.

Even Wang Shouzhe, looking at him, felt a sense of reverence and difficulty to match.

It was a success!

Wang Shouzhe also felt overjoyed, his heart elated. The Wang family had been in decline for years, relying on the barely functioning Old Ancestor Longyan to hold on.

The members of the Wang family lived in constant dread like they were treading on thin ice. They dared not offend one side, and on the other, they had to be cautious, carrying on their lives with their tails between their legs every day.

Why?

Because they had no Old Ancestor to fall back on.

Even if others bullied you, there was nothing you could do. You couldn’t expect the severely injured Old Ancestor Longyan to fight back, could you?

The only feeling they had was one of repression!

Not to mention, even the annual autumn and winter hunts were just a roundabout at the edge of the outlands before hurrying back. There was no other choice – what would you use to confront a powerful fierce beast if you encountered one? Your head?

Recently, Chen Fangjie had sent some Iron-backed Wild Pig meat, hunted by the Old Ancestor of the Chen Clan after their clansmen discovered the top- level-two fierce beast.

Such an opportunity, if presented to the Wang family, would have to be surrendered. Without a Spirit Platform Realm Old Ancestor, hunting a top- level-two fierce beast was too dangerous.

But now things were different.

It won’t be long before Old Ancestor Longyan’s entire body will be purified of the evil qi. Once she uses the Creation Pill to gradually repair her body, she will truly return to her peak state.

However, Old Ancestor Longyan will always be the biggest trump card and should not be used at will.

Now that they have Grandfather Wang Xiaohan, a conventional Spirit Platform Realm Old Ancestor, the strategic deployment options for the future will increase. Likewise, the Wang family will thoroughly step into the fast lane of development.

“Congratulations, Grandfather! For advancing to the Spirit Platform Realm!” Both Wang Shouzhe and Wang Licui congratulated him together, their voices full of excitement.

This was a joyous occasion for any Spirit Platform Family.

Even in the deep, starry-eyes of Old Ancestor Longyan, there was a hint of tears welling up. For many years, she had singlehandedly held up the family.

The family had spent a significant amount of resources and effort to cultivate Spirit Platform Realm practitioners, only to experience failures time and again. Old Ancestor Longyan, who had been tormented by the Yin Sha to the point of wishing for death, did not even dare to die. If she died, the Wang family would have no rightful successor to the Spiritual Platform and their doom was certain!

It’s our turn for the Wang family to rise!

Wang Shouzhe’s heart was ablaze with fervor. With Grandfather’s successful advancement, there was a significant increase in their sense of security.

The days of Liu and Zhao families were numbered.
