Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1632: Chapter 108 Is the Wang Family Clan Leader Out of His Mind?_2

However, these trivial tasks no longer require his personal oversight. Nowadays, many of the younger generation within the Wang family are fully capable of taking on significant responsibilities. As long as he delegates the tasks, the clan members will naturally handle them meticulously.

“Speaking of which, the lineage of the Profound Pill branch of my Lingyun Holy Ground was also established by that Profound Pill True Monarch. Who would have thought that, after so many twists and turns, the inheritance he left would ultimately fall into the hands of the Wang family?” Jiang Zhencang couldn’t help but feel emotional when recalling this matter. “If the Profound Pill Enlightened One were to know of this, his expression would probably be quite spectacular.”

Wang Shouzhe couldn’t help but chuckle.

When it comes to seniority, it truly becomes hard to define clearly.

On that note, Shou Ye had indeed given him quite a pleasant surprise this time. He initially thought that acquiring the Codex would already be a great accomplishment, yet unexpectedly, he also managed to gain such an enormous medicinal field, along with an island.

This will undoubtedly facilitate his upcoming plans.

Next, he plans to use this island as the core to build an alchemical holy ground, modeled after Wang’s Industrial Park.

Elixirs are essential for the cultivation of Profound Martial cultivators, and their daily consumption is incredibly high.

To achieve universal Qi Refinement, aside from improving aptitude with Enlightenment Pills and Blood Refining Pills, the consumption of daily cultivation elixirs remains an unavoidable issue.

Back when he was promoting universal Qi Refinement among the Southern Six Guards of Longzuo County, he already noticed the shortage of alchemists.

Even though the Wang family has tirelessly devoted itself to nurturing its alchemists over the years, there is still a significant gap in talent in this area.

But with the establishment of such an alchemical holy ground, paired with Shou Ye, an unparalleled heavenly child, as the leader, the number of cultivators choosing to become alchemists will undoubtedly experience explosive growth in the coming years.

It won’t take long before the number of grassroots alchemists, if not higher-level ones, skyrockets.

In this way, the foundation for implementing the “Universal Qi Refinement Plan” throughout the entirety of Da Qian will be firmly established.

As he gazed at the island ahead, Wang Shouzhe’s thoughts raced. It was as if he could already foresee the arrival of an era of universal cultivation.

…

Let’s temporarily set aside the matter of the Wang family acquiring the island. Almost simultaneously—

Inside the Zhou Imperial City, Muxian City.

This is an imperial city even more ancient and grandiose than Da Qian Guilong City.

Nearly twenty thousand years ago, the then-powerful Han Yue Ji Clan dispatched a branch to this desolate land to establish a kingdom. They toiled arduously through countless hardships to lay the foundational framework of the Zhou Empire.

With the strong support of the Han Yue Ji Clan, Da Zhou once basked in tremendous prosperity, successfully initiating the Zhou Golden Era, almost becoming the overlord of the Muzhen Continent.

But prosperity is fleeting. After the mysterious demise of the Ji Clan’s First Old Ancestor in an alien realm, along with the loss of a Codex and a Dao-level Item, the Ji Clan’s fortunes abruptly declined. Over the long course of historical changes, the clan gradually fell into decay.

To this day, the once-renowned Han Yue Ji Clan has receded to the status of a Second Class Prominent Family, unable to maintain even their Void Realm inheritance. Those Ji Clan branches within the Immortal Dynasty are also quite unimpressive, without a single accomplished member among them.

This has led to the ironic situation where the strongest branch of the Ji Clan today happens to be the Zhou royal lineage that split off long ago.

Still, as the saying goes, “Each family has its own difficulties to contend with.” The Muzhen Continent is far from peaceful.

In a bid to seize human territories and power, the Red Moon Demon Dynasty has vigorously supported two demonic nations opposed to the Immortal Dynasty on this continent, directly leading to incessant conflicts. Ultimately, a catastrophic Immortal-Demon War erupted.

Though the war, which lasted over two thousand years, ended six thousand years ago, it left Muzhen Continent fragmented into a tense four-power stalemate that persists, marked by constant skirmishes and frictions.

Yet, due to its profound history and robust national strength, the prominent families of Da Zhou remain collectively far stronger than those of Da Qian. For instance, there are as many as six Second Class Duke families in Da Zhou.

Additionally, Da Zhou boasts a unique feature that Da Qian currently lacks—an alien-surnamed king known as the “Wei King.”

And the Wei King’s mansion, [Wei King’s Mansion], is the only First Grade Prominent Family within Da Zhou aside from the royal family itself. In terms of power, it is only slightly inferior to the Zhou royal family.

Among Da Zhou’s six Duke mansions, [Cheng Duke’s Mansion] is located in the eastern part of Muxian City.

The eastern district is one of the core areas of the imperial city. Situated here, the Cheng Duke’s Mansion spans an expansive area, replete with abundant spiritual energy. Though its architecture carries a historical patina, it exudes overwhelming grandeur and an aura of majesty and dominance.

Evidently, despite the passage of time, this founding meritocratic house has not shown any signs of decline. On the contrary, it has continued to prosper and flourish steadily.

At the southern gate of Cheng Duke’s Mansion—

A luxurious yet understated carriage, drawn by two Level Five Silver-scaled Horned Horses, galloped out from the mansion’s gate at full speed, streaking past like a gust of wind.

“Farewell, Little Duke.”

The door guards barely had time to bow and salute before the carriage vanished at the corner of the street at lightning speed.

The guards exchanged puzzled glances.

The typically refined and graceful Little Duke—what could have caused him to act so impatiently today?

Guard A, who knew some inside information, sighed with a face full of regret, “Ah~ Ever since the Little Duke suffered a narrow defeat at [Qiu Huang Tower] at the hands of [Lonely Sword Saint] Wang Anyuan from the Dongqian Mission, his temper has become noticeably quick and irritable. It seems the blow to his pride was quite severe.”
