Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2997: Chapter 70: ”Outwardly Gold and Jade” Wang Shouzhe_4

”Alright, alright, Master, you were quite the handsome man in your youth.” Jiang Yuling said helplessly, trying to appease him.

”That’s more like it. Now that the two of us, master and disciple, have made it through, in the future, as long as we focus on working to repay our debts and advancing in cultivation, once your cultivation base successfully ascends to the Great Luo Realm, we can rebuild our Heavenly Abode of Seven Clouds.” Cai Youdao’s eyes shone with a hopeful light.

”Sigh~ It’s all because I didn’t use tough methods to capture Master Shouzhe earlier.” Speaking of this, Jiang Yuling couldn’t help but sigh with emotion, ”Otherwise, we wouldn’t have had to owe such a huge debt just to rush into becoming a Sacred Supreme of the Great Luo.”

”My dear disciple, you must stay away from Wang Shouzhe, that brat.” Cai Youdao grew nervous again, ”That boy, despite his young age, is more insidious and cunning than a monster that has lived for tens of thousands of years. Don’t let him take advantage of you and then deny everything.”

”Master, Family Head Shouzhe is such a charming man, please don’t slander him groundlessly.” Jiang Yuling raised an eyebrow, showing slight discontent.

”Charming my foot! He’s just an old, crafty fox.” Cai Youdao immediately got anxious, ”I’ve lived for nearly thirty thousand years, and I’ve never seen an older fox more cunning than him. Back then, he almost schemed me out of my underpants.”

As soon as he finished speaking.

A voice suddenly chimed in with approval from the side: ”Well said! I also think Wang Shouzhe is all show and no substance, constantly scheming and plotting, not a good person at all.”

The master and disciple pair were taken aback and turned to look in the direction of the voice, only to find that it came from a middle-aged man of average appearance at a nearby table, who was drinking wine.

He seemed to have quite a bit of resentment towards Wang Shouzhe, and when he spoke in agreement, his face was filled with visible anger and displeasure, as if Wang Shouzhe owed him hundreds of Chaos Spirit Stones.

Beside him sat an elderly man with a somewhat sinister appearance, sitting only halfway on his chair, looking like an attendant or butler who treated the middle-aged man as his master.

”This brother here knows Wang Shouzhe too?” Cai Youdao, accustomed to daily grumbling about his boss, was somewhat surprised.

”Never met him, but I’ve heard of this kid’s various behaviors—just one word, black-hearted and filthy!” Naturally, this seemingly ordinary middle-aged man was none other than the Cangping God Emperor, who was eagerly laying low here, ready to watch the trouble unfold.

Originally, he intended to observe quietly, munching on popcorn, not planning to be noticed, but Cai Youdao’s earlier words really struck a chord with him, prompting him to jump in and agree.

”Brother, a kindred spirit~” Cai Youdao’s eyes lit up, immediately showing a look of meeting an old friend in a foreign land, and he excitedly continued to grumble about his boss, ”My boss, tsk tsk, aside from being handsome, smart, having a high bloodline, and a bit of money, what else does he have?”

”Exactly, what’s the big deal about having a bit of money? Is he not just skilled at scheming? Big deal~!” Cangping God Emperor also seemed to hold a significant grudge against Wang Shouzhe and found Cai Youdao increasingly pleasing to the eye.

With his stance, it was as if he was saying, ”Anyone who joins me in cursing Wang Shouzhe is my good brother.”

The more they cursed, the more naturally they merged into one table, starting to drink and criticize Wang Shouzhe from various angles.

Such a pair of wretched old men seemed to find each other increasingly agreeable.

The sight made Old Tan, the eunuch beside them, watch with a twitching expression, speechless and choking up.

Even Jiang Yuling’s eyelids couldn’t stop twitching, and she couldn’t help but start to suspect whether her master took in seven female disciples in his past life because he was inherently wretched himself?

Just as Luoshui Platform was getting livelier, a clear phoenix cry suddenly came from high in the sky.

Luoshui Platform fell silent for a moment, and many people instinctively looked up.

In the blink of an eye, a massive colorful phoenix tore through the clouds and descended from the sky.

Under the night sky, its huge wings spread across the heavens, and its magnificent tail feathers emitted brilliant colorful light, interwoven with the dazzling Tianhe above—a mesmerizing sight indeed, leaving people in awe.

Just as the colorful phoenix appeared.

The hearty laughter of a young man also came from afar on the phoenix’s back.

”Old Ancestor Minghao, I heard our sister Fei Fei’s husband came to Luojing? Why wasn’t I informed, Xuanyuan Haozhe here would like to see what kind of sacred figure this sister’s husband is~~”

The tone was full of arrogance, clearly showing that the visitor had less than friendly intentions.

With these words, the Immortal Welcoming Building suddenly fell silent.

However, the Cangping God Emperor’s eyes lit up with joy, immediately showing an expression prepared to watch a good show.

It seemed Xuanyuan Haozhe, that brat, was finally making a move, making his long wait worthwhile.
