Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1765: Chapter 141 Promotion! Wang family rises to 4th Rank_3

At the same time, the main branch of the Wang family in Longzuo, following the promotion of Old Ancestor Zhou Bo to the Purple Abode Realm, also successfully entered the ranks of Fifth Grade Prominent Families.

With a celebratory banquet for the promotion of the Wang family, the Wang’s in-law families also upgraded their family grades, with the Liu Family, Gongsun Clan, Lu Family, Chen Clan, and even the Lei Family successfully advancing to Fifth Grade.

In an instant, Longzuo County became the county with the highest density of Fourth and Fifth Grade prominent families in the Great Qian Land.

As for Changning Wei area, it was even more densely populated with Fifth Grade families, boasting extraordinary strength. Those unfamiliar with it might even think they’ve entered the Immortal Dynasty.

However, this promotion in family grades was just a minor episode for the Wang family, and after enjoying the banquet, everyone went back to their usual activities.

Every clan member had their own space and position, bustling daily with efforts for the rise of the Wang family.

As the Wang family continued to progress actively.

Red Moon Demon Dynasty.

In the northern part of the Red Moon Demon Dynasty, there is a state named [Tianbao State].

Among the ten states of the Demon Dynasty, Tianbao State is not the most prosperous nor the most famous, yet it has the most leisurely lifestyle.

Here lies the largest freshwater lake on the Red Moon Continent and a series of rare species production. The extraordinary geographical environment allows the families here to easily earn enough wealth, yet it also makes it difficult for them to venture out or expand outward.

Many renowned inns and vacation villas in the Demon Dynasty are located within Tianbao State.

Jade Bamboo Building.

It’s a famous inn located within the capital of Tianbao State.

Its history is very long-standing, relying on its distinctive dishes and unique business philosophy; its development over the years has been quite favorable, having opened over a hundred branches.

At this moment.

Inside Jade Bamboo Building.

Beside a window seat on the second floor, a young man in black is leisurely holding a wine cup, enjoying the wind, sipping wine, and admiring the various scenes of the world through the railing.

As the breeze blows, the strands of hair by his temples sway slightly, and the intricate robe on his body ripples gently, reflecting strands of shimmering light under the sunlight, appearing lazy yet at ease, exuding an indescribable charm.

“Third Prince, no, Third Official, we’ve been out for quite a few years now, when do you plan to return to the capital?” An elderly man, fair-skinned and beardless, clad in dark purple luxurious attire, bows respectfully beside him, inquiring earnestly, “His Majesty has already sent people to urge you. If you don’t return soon, His Majesty might become angry.”

If the Red Hell Demon Emperor were here, he would definitely recognize him at a glance. This young man, unexpectedly, is the Third Prince of the current Red Moon Demon Emperor, Shentu Jingming.

Many systems of the Red Moon Demon Dynasty continued from the Divine Martial Dynasty Era, sharing common roots with the Immortal Dynasty; thus, there are many parallels in many aspects, like the heir system.

Just like the princesses in the Immortal Dynasty, the princes of the Demon Dynasty also possess the bloodline of an Unparalleled Heavenly Child.

As the Third Prince of the Demon Dynasty, despite being under three hundred years old, he has already reached the peak of the Purple Abode Realm, and even within the Shentu Clan, he is already a significant figure of actual power.

“If Old Ancestor wants to get angry, let him. It’s not like I haven’t angered his old self before,” Shentu Jingming sipped his wine indifferently, his expression still relaxed and at ease, “He’s just venting the foul mood he got from over at the Immortal Emperor; he’s looking for someone to lash out at. If I return now, I’ll be walking right into the knife; there’s no escaping a scolding. This matter, let the eldest and second brother handle, after all, their ambitions are much loftier.”

“But this…” The old eunuch’s expression hesitated, his heart filled with inner conflict, “Aren’t we defying an imperial order now?”

“Ah, enough of that, how is this defying an order? Just tell the person sent by Old Ancestor, my travels are to prepare for breaking through to the Divine Power Territory, and I haven’t found the opportunity yet, so I won’t return.” Third Prince Shentu Jingming’s eyes twitched, instantly coming up with an excuse, “Moreover, I haven’t yet explored the recently discovered ruin, which might contain my opportunity. Even if I were to return, it would have to wait until I finish exploring the site.”

As he spoke, a servant in Jade Bamboo Building respectfully delivered a jade-sealed booklet.

The booklet was exquisitely made, with five gilded characters written in ancient script on the cover — [Red Moon Saint and Hero List].

This [Red Moon Saint and Hero List], as the name suggests, is a list of young individuals within the Red Moon Demon Dynasty who can be called “Saints and Heroes”.

There aren’t many on this list, and those who make it are either in the Divine Power Territory or Unparalleled Heavenly Children beneath that.

Note, the prerequisite is [Unparalleled Heavenly Child]. Such individuals, barring unforeseen circumstances, would become either a Great Emperor, a duke of the imperial household, or the future master of a sacred land.

Shentu Jingming naturally is also on the list, merely ranked relatively low due to his current cultivation still being at the Purple Abode Realm. However, in his view, being ranked low was better, as it avoided too much attention and spotlight.

Due to the extremely few individuals, the list rankings seldom change even over decades; hence, there’s nothing much to see. Shentu Jingming merely glanced at it and then diverted his attention back to enjoying the fine wine and food.

Being the Demon Emperor, what’s so good about that?

Aside from living a bit longer, the burden of responsibilities is overwhelming, just thinking about it makes him feel suffocated.
