Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1967: Chapter 188: Emergence! Divine Martial Military Officer Training Academy (Part 4)

Although the wealthy gentleman came and went in a hurry, only staying briefly before leaving, his visit greatly enhanced the reputation of the Dongfang Clan of Xinping, sparking widespread discussion and keeping people from calming down for a long time.

…

Setting sail from the port of Xinping Town in Changning County, after traveling only about a hundred miles into the open sea, two islands can be seen on the vast ocean.

These two islands are the Sacred Islands, Green Immortal Island, and the earlier Purple Pill Island, which were brought back at great expense by the Wang family.

They are separated by only a few tens of miles, both supported by underwater reefs and reinforced through various means by the Wang family construction team, such as filling and piling, to fix them completely to the seabed.

Along with the continuous construction, the islands were infused with various spirit veins, and a spirit gathering array was set up.

Clearly, the Wang family intends to create a sacred land here, a sacred land complete with a large seaport.

At this moment.

On the vast sea, an ironclad sea ship is riding the wind and waves, speeding towards Purple Pill Island.

On the deck of the sea ship.

Dongfang Yuxi from the Dongfang Family at Tianjin Port is leading the two young generation “star hopefuls” of the family, Dongfang Mingxu and Dongfang Lingrou, looking out at the spirit fog-shrouded island of Purple Pill.

They have just attended the funeral of the Old Ancestor of the Xinping Dongfang Clan and are now ordered to head to Purple Pill Island.

At this moment, the ship is already close to Purple Pill Island. Looking from the bow, the magnificent Purple Pill Island appears like a profound martial giant tortoise lying in the sea, very impressive.

“It’s magnificent.” Dongfang Lingrou stood at the bow, looking at Purple Pill Island, and couldn’t help but exclaim, “I’ve heard that Purple Pill Island was a relic discovered by Shou Ye in Beizhou, and then the Wang family transported it from Beizhou. It’s truly a vast and grand project; if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I could hardly imagine it.”

Years have passed, and the once little girl Dongfang Lingrou has now grown into a bright, twenty-something young woman.

She wore a saffron yellow dress today, her eyes sparkling, and her features were delicate and beautiful, radiating youthful charm, highly eye-catching.

“Address him as Pill King senior.” Hearing her words, although Dongfang Yuxi looked old, his complexion had regained some rosiness, he stared her down and scolded, “Shou Ye nearly became your family’s ancestor’s senior brother.”

As he spoke, a trace of pride emerged between his eyebrows.

It’s quite obvious that Dongfang Yuxi, since joining the Wang Family Pill Refining Department, has gradually gotten rid of the family’s plight. After the Dongfang Family at Tianjin Port recovered their spirit, his mental state significantly improved.

“Old Ancestor Grandpa, but Pill King senior looks too young, like he’s not even thirty.” Dongfang Lingrou blinked her bright eyes, feeling somewhat wronged, “I’ve heard that young talents around two hundred years old like Shou Ye in the Immortal Dynasty are considered young men, and most haven’t gotten married yet.”

“No matter how young he is, it has nothing to do with you.” Dongfang Yuxi admonished her angrily, “This time, bringing you to Changning County for business, firstly, is to let you learn various handling methods of fresh spiritual medicine with me, and earn some income. Secondly, it’s to arrange for you to enter Changning Academy for studies. Although the specifications of Changning Academy are lower than Longzuo’s Purple Abode Academic Palace, its reliance on the Wang family and professional alchemy classes offer more comprehensive and detailed learning than the family, laying a more solid foundation for you. Don’t embarrass our Dongfang Family at Tianjin Port.”

The once youthful and arrogant Dongfang Yuxi has become a mature and old-fashioned elder after life’s trials and epochs.

While Dongfang Yuxi was speaking, the sea ship gradually docked at the port of Purple Pill Island.

Purple Pill Island, arrived.

At the port, Wang’s Alchemy Department staff are always stationed, and seeing Dongfang Yuxi and others arrive, they immediately came to lead them towards the island’s accommodation area.

As the group passed by a herb garden.

They heard a quarrel coming from inside the herb garden.

“Chatter! You old woman of the Immortal Dynasty is too mean.” A seven-tailed fire fox with fiery red fur was perched on the shoulders of a calm young woman, hands on hips, angrily humming, “The spiritual medicine of Purple Pill Island belongs to our Wang family, why should you take them to the Hundred Herb Garden of the Immortal Dynasty?”

Confronting this “person” and the fox was a middle-aged woman dressed very fashionably, with an orchid-like aura in the secluded valley.

Her beautiful eyes widened slightly, her tone somewhat dissatisfied: “I’m negotiating planting matters with the Wang family, what’s it got to do with you, little fox of the Longzuo Yuwen Clan?”

“What did you say?!” The seven-tailed fire fox became furious hearing this, its fiery red fur flaring up like flames, “I’m the future second wife of Senior Brother Shouzhe, so why shouldn’t it concern me?!”

“Firefox Old Ancestor, please calm down first.” The young woman saw it fluffing up and hurriedly soothed its fur, “You haven’t married yet, let’s not make a fuss.”

As she spoke, she caught sight of Dongfang Yuxi, quickly shifting the topic and calling out, “Brother Yuxi, over here.”

Wuwen Nianjing!

Dongfang Yuxi showed a bitter smile, awkwardly walking over.

Back then, he and Wuwen Nianjing failed the exam at the same time; he was youthful and stubborn, unwilling to humble himself, but Wuwen Nianjing thickened her skin and sought to be a Named Disciple.

Years have passed, and Wuwen Nianjing remains that young, beautiful “youthful talent,” while he has grown old and weary.

The gap between them is like heaven and earth.

On countless nights, Dongfang Yuxi regretted his youthful rashness and impulsiveness.

If he hadn’t been so finicky and had thickened his skin to ask Master to take him as a Named Disciple, the Dongfang Family at Tianjin Port wouldn’t be so downfallen today.

Just like the Xinping Dongfang Clan, descended from an Independent Cultivator, simply by holding onto the Wang family’s strong leg, they have become several times stronger than the Dongfang Family at Tianjin Port.

Past matters can no longer be remedied, but the future is still promising.

Dongfang Yuxi has made up his mind that from now on, he will surely cling tightly to the Wang family’s leg.
