Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2528: Chapter 59: Advanced Immortal Spirit Plant! Farming in the Immortal Estate

…

“Shouzhe welcomes the Immortal King.” Wang Shouzhe immediately stood up and greeted loudly.

“Hmph!”

With a discontented snort, a dignified-looking middle-aged man pushed open the door of the flying carriage and stepped out.

Clearly, he was the current Eastern Sea Immortal King.

Without waiting for the flying carriage to land, the Eastern Sea Immortal King flew directly down and landed in front of Wang Shouzhe.

Because it was a private trip, he did not wear the official Immortal King robe today, nor did he wear the Immortal King crown. Yet, even in ordinary attire, his imposing manner was still fierce and dignified, carrying an indescribable nobility that made people involuntarily feel awe.

His expression was extremely unfriendly as he scrutinized Wang Shouzhe, his sharp phoenix eyes sizing him up and down with a gaze that seemed to pierce through him.

Among the Immortal King Mansions of the Sacred Dynasty, the East Sea Immortal King Mansion was one of the strongest, and the personal strength of the Eastern Sea Immortal King could be considered formidable, reportedly having broken through to the Advanced Stage of the True Immortal Realm.

Were it any other young noble, being looked at like this, they would likely be so nervous that their scalp would tingle, and their hair would stand on end.

Unfortunately.

Wang Shouzhe had seen many storms and tempests; just a few days ago, he was chatting and laughing with the Sacred Supreme himself. Facing a True Immortal, he truly felt no sense of awe.

He was not at all intimidated by the overpowering aura of the Eastern Sea Immortal King, even wearing a smile as he politely greeted, “It is a great honor to receive the Immortal King at my humble abode. I apologize for not welcoming you from afar. Mu Xian, quickly serve tea for our honorable guest.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Jiang Mu Xian walked over unhurriedly, laying out various Spirit Fruits on a refined seat by the lake, and brewed a pot of Immortal Tea, then gracefully saluted the Eastern Sea Immortal King, saying, “Honored Immortal King, please be seated.”

Previously, Jiang Mu Xian would have been so intimidated by the Immortal King’s presence that she’d be weak-kneed and trembling. But since following Young Master Shouzhe, she gradually gained more exposure, and her confidence also slowly rose.

After all, the Young Master even dared to command Saints and Saintesses, and jest with the Sacred Supreme; why fear a True Immortal?

“Please.”

Wang Shouzhe invited the Eastern Sea Immortal King to sit, maintaining a composed and courteous demeanor while receiving him.

The Eastern Sea Immortal King took a sip of Immortal Tea, then stared hard at Wang Shouzhe and said, “Boy, what do you have to say about bullying my Qingyang?”

“Immortal King elder,” Wang Shouzhe replied with a smile, “whether I bullied Qingyang or not, others may not know, but surely you do? Qingyang is not without your people by her side.”

The Eastern Sea Immortal King paused, and the fierceness in his eyes subsided a bit.

Though he previously thought, given this boy’s family background, that someone of his social status being let out to train likely wouldn’t be the wastrel the rumors suggested, he never expected the boy to be such a cunning fox as well.

As for what really happened at that time, Aunt Sun, who was by Qingyang’s side, had long conveyed all sorts of information to him, including the fact that this boy had a Sacred Supreme-level protector behind him, and the conflict between Qingyang and this boy. He even knew that Prince Wen Yu had slapped Qingyang across the face.

“I don’t care,” the Eastern Sea Immortal King said obstinately, “Qingyang is the Bright Pearl of my Immortal King Mansion. She has been bullied by you and suffered from various gossips, so much so that she hasn’t been eating well for a while now. I naturally have to seek justice for her.” The Eastern Sea Immortal King placed a magazine on the table, saying, “There are pictures and the truth. What explanation do you have for me?”

Wang Shouzhe stroked his chin and curiously asked, “What kind of explanation does the Immortal King elder want?”

“Since you two have reached this point, and it’s known to everyone in the Sacred City, there’s no turning back,” the Eastern Sea Immortal King said with a stern expression, “Such matters are not up to a junior like you to decide. How about this; send a message back home and have someone of considerable status from your family come over, so both families can sit down and discuss your marriage.”

“…”

Wang Shouzhe looked at him with a complex expression.

“Some things must be said beforehand,” the Eastern Sea Immortal King continued, making an exorbitant demand, “Qingyang is the precious jewel of our house, and at East Sea Immortal King Mansion, we are not short on money, so dowries are not important. But given Qingyang’s talents, marrying into your family as a bride, at least provide her with a Sacred Image…”

“Elder…” Wang Shouzhe finally couldn’t help but interrupt, “A Sacred Image? At the very least, you should get her a Dao Book, right?”

“Dao Book?” The Eastern Sea Immortal King’s face froze, raising an eyebrow, “Boy, are you joking with me?”

“You were the one joking with me first,” Wang Shouzhe replied exasperatedly, “Your Tianrui Saint Dynasty’s princes and princesses throw mud at each other and drag me into it. It’s good enough that I haven’t come to settle accounts with you, don’t try to pin this nonsense on me.”

“Are you planning to walk away after taking advantage?”

The Eastern Sea Immortal King’s face darkened, and a majestic Immortal Aura abruptly rose from him, pressing down on Wang Shouzhe.

His voice also deepened instantly: “Wang Shouzhe, I advise you to speak cautiously. Don’t think that our Immortal King Mansion is easy to bully.”

However, the pressure was just pressure.

Wang Shouzhe remained calmly sipping his Immortal Tea, utterly unruffled, as if the sky had yet to fall, ignoring the nearly tangible True Immortal pressure as if it were nothing.

This Eastern Sea Immortal King was pretending to be ignorant while actually being shrewd; clearly, he came to blackmail for marriage, and it would be a miracle if Wang Shouzhe paid him any heed.
