Great Emperor’s Incognito Visit_3 As a result, even those minor families not rated were starting to cultivate “Spiritual Platform seeds,” attempting to break into Rank 9, and Rank 9 families were beginning to cultivate the second or even third Spirit Platform Realm cultivator, planning an assault on Eighth Grade. As for those families that were already at Eighth Grade, they were consumed with plans on how to advance to 7th Rank.

Ultimately, all this was due to the radiance of the Wang Industry Group.

While Zhong Mountain Island was in turmoil, the curtain on the flying carriage fluttered slightly, and a figure in blue robes appeared seamlessly before Master Xiangyang.

It was Wang Shouzhe.

He bowed to Master Xiangyang and his gentle and modest voice followed,”Master Xiangyang, you are indeed a senior, please don’t fold me in your esteem.”

Upon hearing this, Zhong Xiangyang couldn’t help but laugh and supported Wang Shouzhe,”Master Shouzhe’s arrival brings glory to our Zhong family~” Over the years, this oldest elder of the Hundred Islands Zhong Family had grown feeble and was about to be promoted to the esteemed elder plaque of the Zhong Family.

Zhong Xiangyang took a moment to assess Wang Shouzhe and found that he still looked like a handsome young man, even more elegant and grand than before, his eyes deeper and more composed.

However, that wasn’t the point.

What left him speechless was that he could no longer see through Wang Shouzhe’s cultivation base; it was like a bottomlessly deep cold pool.

The gap was immense.

It’s true what they say, comparing people can be fatal, and comparing goods can be disheartening.

After a brief exchange between the two, Wang Shouzhe immediately became serious and addressed the matter at hand,”Master Xiangyang, please lead us to see Brother Zhong for one last time.”

Us? Could it be that he also came?

Zhong Xiangyang glanced at the flying carriage and was shocked. It seemed that he too was a person who cherished old relationships.

He dared not delay any longer and quickly said,”Master Shouzhe, follow me.”

“Thank you, Master Xiangyang.”

Immediately, Zhong Xiangyang and Zhong Wannian, the two Celestial being elders, led the way while the Twin Crane Flying Carriage from the Wang family didn’t even stop at the harbor but went directly deep into the island, landing straight in the Zhong family’s main residence.

Only then did Elder Longyan step down from the flying carriage and exchanged greetings with the two Zhong family elders.

Soon after, under the guidance of the two elders, Wang Shouzhe and Elder Longyan quickly arrived at Zhong Xingwang’s house.

Zhong Xingwang, who had never married in his lifetime, was now being attended to by his nephews outside his door.

Suddenly, Elder Longyan, wearing a veiled mask, stopped in her tracks.

A complex expression shone in her eyes,”Shouzhe, go and check on his condition first, then report to me.”

“Yes, Elder.”

Wang Shouzhe responded.

Led personally by Zhong Xiangyang and Zhong Wannian, he was quickly brought to Zhong Xingwang’s bedside.

By the bed, several of Zhong Xingwang’s nephews were standing guard and promptly stood up to salute upon their arrival,”Greetings, elders.”

Zhong Xiangyang waved his hand, signaling them to step aside and not to block the front of the bed.

At this moment, Zhong Xingwang was lying on the bed, his eyes tightly closed, his breathing faint.

Wang Shouzhe couldn’t afford to greet the younger generations and immediately stepped forward to grasp his wrist, sending a stream of Life Origin Mysterious Energy through his meridians into his body to check on his condition.

Wang Shouzhe furrowed his brows and inwardly cursed, “not good.”

Brother Zhong’s lifespan was completely exhausted, his vitality gone, and even his Life Origin Mysterious Energy couldn’t turn the situation around.

Revitalized slightly by this energy and prompted, Zhong Xingwang weakly lifted his dim eyes to see Wang Shouzhe,”Shouzhe is here.”

“Brother Zhong.”

Wang Shouzhe’s expression turned somber, holding his withered hand, recalling the various help Brother Zhong had offered him when he himself was just a young lad, feeling a wave of sadness envelop him.

“Shouzhe,” Zhong Xingwang’s face flushed as if experiencing a final surge of energy, appearing much more spirited,”Do not be sad, my brother. This life has been worthwhile!”

“It’s good that you’ve repeatedly sought the Life-extending Elixirs from Changchun Valley for me; otherwise, your brother would have left earlier.”

Normally, the maximum lifespan for a Spirit Platform Realm cultivator is two hundred years, but that is the theoretical lifespan; in reality, even those who live past one hundred ninety are rare.

Now, Zhong Xingwang had lived till two hundred and eighteen years.

This was actually due to Wang Shouzhe repeatedly using his Life Origin Mysterious Energy to smooth his meridians and nourish his blood, significantly extending his lifespan.

However, Wang Shouzhe didn’t want to advertise his rare ability to extend life, which could cause unnecessary trouble, so he publicly claimed that he had obtained Longevity Fruit and Life-extending Pill from Changchun Valley.

“Master Shouzhe,” Master Xiangyang also consoled,”Life span is determined by heaven, and Xingwang owes his longevity to your grace.”

Master Xiangyang also wanted to extend his life, but now over three hundred ninety years old and already considered very long-lived among the Heavenly Human Realm elders. Even if he spent a vast fortune to acquire Heaven and Earth Treasures for longevity, he wouldn’t live much longer.

He thought better of it and decided to leave more Qian Gold for his children instead~ “Brother Zhong, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?” Wang Shouzhe inquired.

“My nephews are all quite well taken care of by the Zhong family, and I needn’t worry about them.” Zhong Xingwang shook his head but turned to Wang Shouzhe, a hint of hope flickering in his eyes,”If I really have to mention a wish… It would be for my senior sister to breakthrough to the Purple Abode Realm soon and become a distinguished Purple Abode Master who lives a life free from calamities and full of brilliance.”
