Protect Our Chief-Chapter 516 - 24 Competing Handsomeness with Shouzhe! Mingyu Admits Defeat_2

Only some Purple Mansion Families with a legacy of over a thousand years can gradually accumulate some spirit wood furniture over the passage of time. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

This Yuwen Family’s "Spring Sensing Hall" may seem unassuming, but in truth, it vividly showcases their profound heritage.

Alas~ I wonder when the Changning Wang Family will ever have such grandeur...

Just at that moment of reflection, Wang Shouzhe stepped over the threshold, and upon looking up, saw Lady Bilian in a light purple gauze robe.

Upon learning that Wang Shouzhe was coming, Lady Bilian, of course, waited early inside.

As Wang Shouzhe entered, she immediately greeted him with a radiant smile: "To trouble Patriarch Shouzhe for a small matter of our Yuwen Family, it’s such a toil for you."

"Lady, you’re too kind. It’s just a trifling matter, and besides, you’ve already paid the remuneration."

After a few pleasantries, both sides took their seats, and cups of spirit tea were brought up. Wang Shouzhe and Lady Bilian began discussing the main matters.

...

Meanwhile.

Yuwen Residence, back garden.

The Yuwen Family’s main residence is situated atop a massive spirit vein, where spiritual energy is abundant, ancient trees tower, and countless spirit plants and exotic flowers thrive, a scene of vibrant life. Just being in the midst of it can prolong life and ward off all ailments.

Apart from the exotic blooms, the family has also divided the most spiritually rich spots into spirit plant herb gardens, with dedicated spirit plant farmers taking care and watching over them.

And right at the core of the spirit vein in the back garden, a patch of fire bodhi wood is planted.

These bodhi woods, though only appearing to be several hundred years old, already show nascent spirituality, faintly exhibiting the aura of fire spirit wood.

It must be said, the Yuwen Family, once a Purple Mansion Family, truly has a deep heritage, far incomparable to the just-developing Changning Wang Family.

Within this fire bodhi forest, a luxurious red pavilion is situated.

This small pavilion is entirely constructed from fire spirit wood and fire crystal jade bricks, exuding extreme luxury, with such high surrounding temperatures that it feels like being in a "fireplace."

The plaque of the pavilion bears the words "Celestial Fox Pavilion" in bold, flamboyant script.

A few dozen meters away from the pavilion, a row of houses for the household generals is built. These are specifically tasked with serving the six-tailed fire fox, with each being a Spirit Platform Realm cultivator. Usually, every year, two Spirit Platform Realm generals take turns.

However, with the six-tailed fire fox recently at a crucial phase of ascending to seven-tails, a total of six male and female generals are all present. This also shows the attention and expectation of the Yuwen Family towards the six-tailed fire fox.

As soon as the six-tailed fire fox successfully ascends to seven-tails, the Yuwen Family would have the strength to return to the Purple Mansion.

Apart from the male and female generals, there are several well-dressed, handsome youths, all looking refined and graceful. Judging by their appearance and uniforms, they seem to be young disciples from the Purple Mansion Academy.

Among them, one handsome youth in his thirties slightly frowned and said: "Senior Brother Mingyu has been inside for the time it takes to burn an incense stick. Why is there still no movement?"

This handsome youth is none other than Yuwen Jianye, who joined the Purple Mansion Academy at the same time as Wang Luqiu and Wang Luojing.

Over a decade has passed, and he has shed the greenness and immaturity of the past, becoming a mature and steady Spirit Platform Realm excellent disciple. With a bit more effort, he still has a great chance of becoming a core disciple.

Standing next to him is Chi Junjie, a core disciple from Carefree Peak. Despite being in his fifties, he still maintains the appearance of a calm youth. Back in the day, he was also lured by Lady Bilian and once fed spiritual food to the six-tailed fire fox.

However, the six-tailed fire fox is always fickle, and within just over two years, it had already tired of Chi Junjie’s appearance and temperament.

Fortunately, in those two plus years, Chi Junjie made quite a bit of money, and with Lady Bilian secretly supporting and aiding him, his cultivation entered the fast lane.

This poor disciple from an eighth-grade noble family finally joined the ranks of Master Xuan Yao’s core disciples.

Joining him as a core disciple at the same time was Wang Shouxin of the Longzuo Wang Family.

Having benefitted from Lady Bilian, Chi Junjie often befriend others in the academy to cater to the increasingly picky appetite of the six-tailed fire fox. Now, Chi Junjie and Yuwen Jianye jointly invited Wang Zongsheng from the Profound Ice Hall lineage and Jii Mingyu.

"Jianye Junior Brother, please be patient. Senior Brother Mingyu is among the top in our core disciples. Plus, coming from a sixth-grade noble family, he’s a top choice in talent, temperament, and looks. Now that he’s been inside for a stick of incense and hasn’t been thrown out by the six-tailed fire fox, it seems like there’s a good chance." Chi Junjie, clad in the assembly uniform of a core disciple from Carefree Peak, with a spiritual artifact-level treasure sword hanging at his waist, cut a dashing, handsome and extraordinary figure.

"This six-tailed fire fox has too much attitude. Just after glancing at me twice, it threw me out. It has no judgment. I embody the real masculine charm." Wang Zongsheng, already in his late twenties, awkwardly said.

He too has matured significantly, but his physique has become even more imposing, with muscles bulging all over like a robust giant bear.

He has always enjoyed practicing horizontal training; even after entering the Profound Ice Hall lineage, he hasn’t changed his original intention. Fortunately, the Purple Mansion Academy has a vast array of cultivation techniques, which cater to his needs.

Yuwen Jianye and Chi Junjie both cast him strange looks.
