Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2459: Chapter 43: The Immortal Clan Surrenders! Hua Rui’s Azure Dragon Corps

The council chamber soon quieted down again.

Princess Hua Rui gestured backward.

An elderly man in a yellow robe, with an ancient appearance, suddenly appeared behind her, raising his hand in salute: “Old Dragon greets Your Highness the Princess.”

Speaking, he flipped his hand and took out a large stack of boxes from his storage ring.

This elder was none other than Da Qian’s National Guardian Beast, Wu Canglong. Originally at the peak of Level Ten, as Da Qian became wealthier, Emperor Zi’an spent considerable money and connections to acquire a trace of Chaos Essence, and provided a large supply of blood energy food to him. This finally allowed Wu Canglong, who had been stuck at a bottleneck for a long time, to break through to Level Eleven, making him a true National Guardian Beast.

At the same time, Emperor Zi’an assigned Wu Canglong to Hua Rui’s side for both protection and assistance.

“Commander Zhixing,” Princess Hua Rui took a box and handed it to Wu Zhixing, saying, “This Wandering Wind Codex was bought for you using the Imperial Private Treasury’s wealth, valued at two Immortal Spirits and eighty-six Extreme Spirits. You should make good use of it.”

It truly is a codex!

Even the always composed Wu Zhixing couldn’t help but tremble with excitement as he accepted the box: “Thank you, Your Highness Hua Rui.”

Now in the advanced stage of the Purple Abode Realm, relying on his own merit points and the subsidies from the Imperial Private Treasury, his bloodline had been elevated over the years to the Heavenly Excellence Grade A, just short of possessing a codex, which would grant him the qualification to aim for the Transcendent Void.

This codex came at the perfect time.

“No need to thank me, this is the Imperial Household’s money.” Hua Rui smiled, “Cultivate well, strive to be ennobled soon.”

The Da Qian Imperial Household possesses numerous high-quality Spirit Fields, and in recent years, they have developed several Grade Five and Six Spirit Fields. They cultivate various grades of Spirit Grain Seeds for the Wang family, which are then centrally purchased and sold worldwide, making a huge profit, and accumulating quite a stash of Immortal Crystal Notes.

This kind of Imperial private property is unrelated to national taxes, and the money earned is naturally spent on nurturing the Imperial talent. Among the current members of the Da Qian Imperial Household, Wu Zhixing stands at the forefront in terms of age, cultivation base, and aptitude. Emperor Zi’an and Hua Rui already have codices, so this codex naturally fell into his hands.

“I will personally visit Emperor Zi’an and the Imperial Family Mansion to express my gratitude. Rest assured, Your Highness, I will diligently cultivate and not disappoint the expectations of my elders.”

Wu Zhixing solemnly held the box, making a silent vow in his heart.

This codex, like timely rain, would bless his bloodline through the baptism of the Heavenly Earth Essence. It was enough to elevate his bloodline to the World’s Best, Class C! Even without further opportunities, he would likely reach the mid Transcendent Void Realm, more than capable of commanding a corps.

By entrusting him with the codex, Emperor Zi’an placed great hopes in his future, expecting him to support Da Qian in the future. He was determined to fulfill that expectation.

“Commander Shihai,” Princess Hua Rui then turned to another leader who appeared to be in his forties and handed him another silk box, saying, “This Heavenly Mysteries Codex contains pure cultivation techniques and was personally sought for you by our Old Ancestor, ’estimated’ at three Immortal Spirit Stones. Our Old Ancestor said he would subsidize one and a half Spirit Stones for you. The remaining Spirit Stones, you must provide yourself from the Southern Desert Wang family.”

“Thank you, Your Highness, and thank you, Great-Grandfather!” Wang Shihai was immensely excited as he bowed towards the direction of the Changning Wang Clan, unable to hold back his flattering words, “From the first moment I met Great-Grandfather, I knew he was an Exiled Immortal, unparalleled in valor. The first time he met me, he gave me a Purple Gold Note as a gift, praising my potential…”

The Southern Desert Wang family had voluntarily requested to jointly support Li Yao with the Changning Wang Clan, and over the years, they had naturally followed the Wang family’s lead. The Wang family had treated them well in return, covering them in lucrative business deals, leading to the Southern Desert Wang family becoming increasingly prosperous, even having two Divine Power Territories.

However, being wealthy and resourced, what the Southern Desert Wang family most desperately needed now was a codex.

Therefore, they had been vigorously cultivating Wang Shihai following the standards for developing Void Realm potential. Now everything was ready, only the codex was missing.

They asked the Wang family for help to procure a codex, believing that even one could grant the Southern Desert Wang family the potential to become a First Grade Prominent Family and achieve a breakthrough in status.

“Enough, enough, less flattery and self-aggrandizing,” Hua Rui interrupted his lengthy praises with resignation, “you’re the Commander of the Sixth Azure Dragon Battalion now; do it well, or I’ll have your skin peeled.”

Among the clan relatives, Shihai was of course her elder, but within the army, Hua Rui was his absolute superior.

“I swear by the ancestors of the Wang family, to follow Your Highness the Princess to achieve meritorious deeds until my last breath,” Wang Shihai solemnly vowed.

He was filled with emotion; encountering Great-Grandfather was indeed a turning point in his life. Who could have imagined that he would have the chance to reach the Void Realm in this lifetime?

It was even more unimaginable that he would one day be led by Princess Hua Rui, who was four generations younger than him.

Princess Hua Rui nodded with satisfaction, then turned her gaze to the commander of the Fourth Battle Group, Wang An Nan: “Commander Annan, my Old Ancestor has also sent you a codex; equally, he’ll subsidize half the cost.”

In the early years when Wang Shouzhe had just taken over the Wang family, the clan relatives had been of significant help to the growth of the Changning Wang Clan. As a result, Wang Shouzhe had also endeavored to reciprocate and support them in return. These codices were either unearthed in the Crystal Ancient Tribe Ruins or procured through collections and auctions.
