Protect Our Chief-Chapter 597 - 51: Wang Shouzhe! This is my family’s Ancestor!_4

This group of five beauties turned out to be the elite of the Wang Family and the Liua Family in the Academy.

Especially the Floating Ancestor at the forefront, whose pair of beautiful eyes exuded a sharp aura, and a sense of pressure enveloped the surroundings, making Wang Zongyao feel a chill as if he had encountered a fierce beast that was impossible to match.

He was quite perceptive and realized it immediately, his face lighting up as he greeted, "Zongyao congratulates Ancestor Xuanfu on achieving Great Success in her Profound Skill, attaining the realm of the Celestial Human."

"So it was Zongyao," Liua Xuanfu said with a hint of a smile in her eyes, hidden beneath a veil, "In the blink of an eye, this little brat has grown into a handsome young man. Is there someone you fancy? Why not choose from the Liua Family girls?"

Wang Zongyao forced a smile and replied, "Thank you, Ancestor Xuanfu, for your affection, but I need to focus on learning the Artifact Refining Skill and am not considering this for the time being."

"I’ve also heard about your artifact refining in the Academy," Wang Luqiu said, eyeing her fourth nephew with great interest, "How’s it going? Are you able to craft Upper Grade Spiritual Artifacts yet? Your sixth aunt happens to be lacking a pair of gloves."

Up, Upper Grade Spiritual Artifacts?

Wang Zongyao almost fainted, his face filled with an awkward smile, "Sixth Aunt, I’ve only been learning for less than a year..."

"Sixth Aunt, don’t tease Brother Zongyao," Wang Liyao interceded, "Refining Spiritual Artifacts is already tough, not to mention Upper Grade ones. I guess Brother Zongyao is now at the stage where he’s crafting weapons for household servants and household generals~~~"

"Uh..." Wang Zongyao was so embarrassed he wanted to find a hole to crawl into. Could he explain that he’s currently at the stage of crafting farming tools? Thank you for helping me out, Sister Liyao~

This topic was truly too embarrassing, so he quickly changed the subject, "Sister Liyao, why have you all returned together?"

"Zongyao, you don’t know?" ’Fifth Aunt’ said with a hint of surprise, "Our Wang Family and Marriage Alliance are likely to have a conflict with the Jiaolong Gang, and we’ve rushed back to support. Zong’an, Zongsheng, and several other males from the families took another flying chariot back."

Now that the various families in the Marriage Alliance have gradually strengthened, the young ones in the families receive resources far surpassing those from twenty years ago. Being nurtured under ample resources, a large batch of outstanding young people has emerged.

They also follow the Wang Family’s example, sending some outstanding family members to the Academy. Although most are only Ordinary Disciples currently, it’s still a start, and a future in the Spirit Platform Realm is within reach.

With this crisis in the Marriage Alliance, naturally, everyone is finding a way to return to the family over the holidays to face the difficulty together.

Of course, they’re all returning quietly under the guise of requesting leave. Within a few months at most, they must report back to the Academy. Official Disciples in the Academy are not allowed to reside long-term with their families.

Moreover, during official confrontations, they must find a way to conceal their identities to avoid unnecessary trouble.

As the Wang Clan Members were returning one after another.

In Wang Shouzhe’s courtyard. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Lady Bilian, dressed like a noblewoman, sat opposite Wang Shouzhe with an unfriendly expression, "Patriarch Shouzhe, at such a critical moment, inviting our family’s Ancestor Fire Fox as a guest is somewhat excessive. Do you want to drag our Yuwen Family into your grievances with the Jiaolong Gang?"

The Jiaolong Gang has been a large force for several centuries.

Many families have had some dealings, more or less, with the Jiaolong Gang, and the Yuwen Family is no exception. Thus, even though the Yuwen Family has deep project cooperation with the Wang Family, they can’t join the Wang Clan in a conflict with the Jiaolong Gang.

"My Lady, whatever are you saying?" Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, holding a Fire Fox the size of a small dog, "Our conflict with the Jiaolong Gang is just minor friction. A bit of negotiation will solve it, nothing major. I’ve just missed my Fire Fox sister and thought about visiting her..."

"Chirp chirp~~ Brother Shouzhe, I’ve missed you too." The Seven-tailed Fire Fox said happily, rolling around in Wang Shouzhe’s arms, acting cute and coquettish, "Lun Family has wanted to visit Brother Shouzhe for a long time."

Seeing the intimate gestures between the man and the fox, Lady Bilian felt an overwhelming surge of jealousy in her heart, almost causing her to roar, "Wang Shouzhe, that is my family’s Ancestor!"
