Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2816: Chapter 24: Wang Shouzhe’s Brute Strength Settles the Situation

...

With Wang Shouzhe’s interruption, Lan Wanghai wasn’t as tense as he was at the beginning.

He took a deep breath, calmed his mood, and explained, ”It’s not those Taoist Masters who are looking for you, but rather two prominent figures from the Ancient Saint Clan Ji and Ancient Saint Jiang Clan—Ji Family’s Ninth Heaven Sacred Supreme and Dan Saint Jiang Lihuo—who are coming to cause trouble for you.”

Lan Wanghai quickly recounted Emperor Tianrui’s words, then lowered his voice again to persuade, ”Master Shouzhe, I know your Shenwu Sacred Alliance is not weak now. But these two Sacred Supremes have immense forces supporting them, and combined, they are not comparable to ordinary Sacred Supremes. Do not suffer this immediate loss. Take my advice, lay low for now, and think of a way to find the Ancient Saint Clan Ying and His Majesty the Cangping God Emperor to intervene.”

The Wang family’s Wang Baosheng once saved Yin Lingzhu, naturally gaining the favor of the Ying Clan, and the Cangping God Emperor also rewarded this matter with praise, thus it’s possible he might intervene to prevent it.

This was already the best solution Emperor Tianrui could think of.

”Thank you Brother Lan for coming to deliver this message, and thank you very much to His Majesty the Emperor for the help.” Wang Shouzhe cupped his hands towards Lan Wanghai, ”As the saying goes, you see a person’s true heart in times of trouble. I, Shouzhe, will surely remember this kindness and will repay it in the future.”

Shouzhe was always one to show gratitude.

In the current situation, where Emperor Tianrui himself is under tremendous pressure, yet still remembers to specifically send someone to warn him, it is already very commendable. How could he possibly ignore it?

”It’s nothing, really~ But His Majesty cannot truly intervene, the Ancient Saint Clan is too powerful,” Lan Wanghai said with an apologetic face.

”Rest assured, Shouzhe has long had a plan for this matter.” Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, ”When you return, report to His Majesty that he only needs to watch and not interfere.”

Feeling the sincerity in his words, Lan Wanghai, though doubtful, had no choice but to take his leave and return to report.

Water Moon Saintess listened to the entire conversation, her face also somewhat solemn at this moment: ”Shouzhe, this matter is not easy to handle, I will send a message to have my master come and preside over justice.”

”No worries.” Wang Shouzhe waved his hand calmly, ”Your master probably cannot withstand the majesty of the Ancient Saint Clan either, do not make things difficult for her.”

”I can reach out to the Hall Master of the Divine Treasure Hall!” Yao Yumei bit her lip and spoke up, ”Perhaps he might be willing to help mediate for us.”

These years, Yao Yumei and the Wang family had grown increasingly close, often acting as an intermediary to purchase treasures from the Divine Treasure Hall for the Wang family, and the Wang family, in turn, entrusted her secretly to sell some valuable items to the Divine Treasure Hall.

For example, Wang Shouzhe once entrusted Yao Yumei to sell a bottle of Immortal Refined Essence Version to the Divine Treasure Hall, a treasure interposed between the Eleventh Grade Enlightenment Pill and the Twelfth Grade Taoist Yuan Pill, which the Divine Treasure Hall cherished greatly.

This treasure is only occasionally unearthed from the Crystal Ancient Tribe Ruins in the Realm of Ruin, exceedingly rare in quantity, with a value far beyond the Enlightenment Pill. In fact, if it were put up for auction, its value wouldn’t be lower than that of the Taoist Yuan Pill.

In the Sacred Domain’s million-year history, at most only a few dozen bottles of this treasure have appeared.

Its effect does not overlap with that of the Enlightenment Pill and the Taoist Yuan Pill. This also makes it able to let those top-notch prodigies of the Human race improve even further at the pinnacle.

It is because of this that Yao Yumei’s status within the Shenbao Hall System has grown over the years.

”The Hall Master of the Divine Treasure Hall is said to be enigmatic,” Wang Shouzhe slightly frowned, ”Each of the God Continents has branches of the Divine Treasure Hall, such a person probably will not casually intervene in internal family disputes of various continents, Yumei, do not waste resources lightly.”

”I’ll go back and talk to the Old Ancestor,” Crown Princess Qingyang also said, ”We, the Tianrui Sacred Dynasty, have reaped tremendous trade benefits from the Shenwu Sacred Alliance for hundreds of years, how could the Old Ancestor compromise and retreat just due to a few threats from the Ancient Saint Clan? Could it be that the Ancient Saint Clan dares to defy the world and launch an attack on our Tianrui Sacred Dynasty?”

Her nature is righteous and naturally dislikes the Ji Family and Jiang’s approach of using power to oppress.

”Qingyang, don’t get agitated and don’t make things difficult for His Majesty.” Wang Shouzhe directly waved his hand to stop her, ”His Majesty has his difficulties. Although they cannot directly send troops to attack Tianrui, they can blockade Tianrui from various aspects and strongly support Tianrui’s adversary forces. Over time, even consuming Tianrui to death is possible!”

What should we do if this doesn’t work and that doesn’t work either?

Liu Ruolan’s few mahjong companions all looked a bit troubled.

They thought they were already quite significant in status, yet in this matter, they found they couldn’t help at all, which made them feel both frustrated and embarrassed as well as annoyed and guilty.

”You all don’t need to worry too much.” Wang Shouzhe’s expression remained very calm, his tone relaxed, ”In fact, our Wang family has long anticipated this matter and already has a countermeasure. I will issue the command now and order our people to implement the plan. You can continue playing mahjong, don’t let it affect your mood.”

Already have a countermeasure? Continue playing mahjong?

Water Moon Saintess and others were all shocked.

So those two Ancient Saint Clans come menacingly to cause trouble for the Wang family, and in your eyes, it’s not even as important as playing mahjong?

Even if you have had a plan for a long time and are confident in your heart, shouldn’t you at least be serious? At least respect the enemy!

”Alright, since my husband said there is a countermeasure, there is indeed a countermeasure.” Liu Ruolan, however, appeared much more composed than them. After listening to Wang Shouzhe, she calmly returned to the game table and started playing again, ”Don’t let these irrelevant people affect your mood, let’s continue playing mahjong.”
