Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 517: Chapter 24 – Comparing Charm with Shouzhe! Mingyu Willingly Admits Defeat_3

This youngster has practiced the Body Cultivation Technique, the “Nine Transformation Body Tempering Technique”, and transformed himself into a distant ancient human bear. And he’s still hoping that the Six-tailed Firefox will like him?

Previously, when Ji Mingyu was invited, Wang Zongsheng insisted on trying himself. He kept saying that maybe the handsome son of the Six-tailed Firefox had seen too many and his tastes had changed, and maybe he, Wang Zongsheng, might appeal to the firefox.

Sadly, his cunning plan to make some quick money failed, and he was promptly thrown out by the Six-tailed Firefox.

“Zongsheng,” Yuwen Jianye patted his shoulder and said, “You should switch to practicing swordsmanship while you’re young, else you might end up a bachelor before you know it.”

“What’s so great about having a wife?” Wang Zongsheng snorted in disdain. “It’s too troublesome. Just look at all my sisters-in-law, they all have such temperaments and are hard to cater to. Instead of wasting time on them, I’d rather practice more.”

“If your Fourth Uncle hears this, I’m sure you’ll be scolded,” Chi Junjie joked, “Your Changning Wang Clan is in a high-speed development period, and what the clan lacks most are descendants.”

… “Don’t worry about that, all my sisters-in-law are very fertile,” Wang Zongsheng answered casually. “Take my Four Uncle’s wife, for instance. They already have four children. According to Luo Jing, despite their age, they are still very romantic, and their cultivation base is high, so they’ll probably have a few more.”

For some long-established families, having four children is nothing as long as the family has abundant cultivation resources. According to rumors, some in the Rank Six and Fifth Grade families who love children will even take common wives or concubines, and end up with dozens of children.

However, within any influential family, the status of offspring from concubines is relatively low unless they are exceptionally talented and can make a mark for themselves.

While everyone was gossiping leisurely.

A scream suddenly echoed from the Tianhu Pavilion.

Immediately afterwards, a familiar figure flew out from within, landing harshly on the ground, and even rolled several times.

This person was none other than Ji Mingyu.

“What a cheeky Six-tailed Firefox, she sure has a temper. She started attacking as soon as I said something!” He dusted himself off, his face turning red with anger.

“Senior Brother Mingyu.” Several people surrounded him, expressing their concern, “Are you okay?”

“I’m fine, I’m fine.” Ji Mingyu waved off their concern with embarrassment. “My plan just fell short, and in the end, I provoked the Six-tailed Firefox. Junior Brother Jianye, no offense, but your Firefox is spoiled. If even I, Ji Mingyu, can’t handle her, then who can make her happy in the whole Purple Abode Academy?”

Saying this, he inwardly regretted his loss. He had just lost his chance at the reward of twenty thousand Qian Gold. At most, he’d only receive a few thousand Qian Gold for his effort. He felt a bit unjust.

“Ah, it’s such a pity that Senior Brother Yu An has been in closed-door cultivation for several years,” said Yuwen Jianye with a sigh. “Otherwise, he could have tried his luck.”

Upon the mention of Senior Brother Yu An, Ji Mingyu didn’t have any disputes, and simply said: “Senior Brother Yu An’s vision is very high. A few tens of thousands of Qian Gold wouldn’t be enough to move him. Furthermore, he’s been closing off the world for cultivation, let’s not involve him.”

Suddenly.

A female head of household from the Yuwen Clan said, “Young Master Jianye, I heard from Lady Bilian that she invested a lot of effort in inviting a contemporary star to our residence, who should be arriving soon.”

“A contemporary star?” Ji Mingyu frowned, “Could it be a disciple of our Purple Abode Academy? That’s impossible. No one in the Purple Abode Academy has better looks than me or is more talented than me. So who could it be?”

The head of household softly said, “I don’t know who it is, specifically. But if Madam says it’s an elite, then it’s an elite.”

“Alright, then we’ll wait at the Yuwen Clan for a few days,” Ji Mingyu spoke with disbelief in his voice. “I, Ji Mingyu, want to see who this amazing person is. Who can actually be more handsome than me?”

The moment his words fell.

a cheerful laughter came from outside, “Senior Brother Mingyu indeed has an exceptional demeanor and a striking appearance, I, Wang Shouzhe, am absolutely no match for you. But, I am here on the Madam’s request to try my luck.”

Following the voice, Wang Shouzhe and Lady Bilian walked in side by side.

“Junior Brother Shouzhe, it’s you!?” Ji Mingyu’s eyes widened, and it took him a few moments to regain his composure. Then, with a sigh, he said, “Alright, alright. If it’s you, I, Ji Mingyu, can accept being bested.”
