Protect Our Patriarch

For a moment, Wang Shouzhe was somewhat amused.

This talent bloodline awakening came and went. He had long anticipated the awakening of his bloodline talent, but in the end, it turned out to be a support role.

Could it be that in the future, he, Wang Shouzhe, would have to rely on his sisters and the Ancestor to fight in the front, while he provided support from the back?

However, upon further thought, this might not necessarily be a bad thing.

As the Clan Leader, he was the foundation of the clan, the central soul. frёewebηovel.cѳm

Whether he fell on the battlefield or under other circumstances, it would be a fatal blow to the clan.

The wood-based bloodline talent might not seem very powerful in combat, but its vitality was absolutely the most tenacious. Even if it couldn't kill you in a short time, it could wear you down.

Moreover, the potential that could be tapped was also extremely huge. Any bloodline talent naturally had its strengths and weaknesses, and the most important thing was how to use it.

In addition, the wood-based bloodline talent also had benefits for lifespan. The limit for the Spirit Platform Realm was two hundred years, but most cultivators in the Spirit Platform Realm did not live to be two hundred years old.

The wood-based bloodline talent was good for body conditioning. As long as there were no accidents along the way, living to the limit was not a problem, and it was quite possible to push past the limit.

Against enemies of the same age and realm, it was very likely that he could outlive them and have the last laugh...

There was also another very important point.

Through the process of promoting several plants, he found that after the awakening of his bloodline, his affinity and understanding of plants were rapidly increasing.

This was also very beneficial for the future development of the clan.

Take the rice variety commonly used by the clan now, for example. The current yield per season was about thirty dan. But in Wang Shouzhe's memory, the yield per mu on Earth was far more than this number.

If he could cultivate better rice and wheat varieties with the wood-based bloodline talent... Even if the yield per mu increased by ten dan, the clan's production capacity would skyrocket.

In addition, there were also spirit plants and so on. freёweɓnovel.com

The plants currently used by the clan for cultivation and production were all common varieties of spirit plants, mainstream products. If he could develop superior varieties with this bloodline ability, wouldn't that be great?

The more Wang Shouzhe thought about it, the more he felt that the subtlety of the bloodline talent he had awakened was due to his limited understanding of bloodline talents. He would have to ask the Ancestor tomorrow, what kind of wood-based bloodline talent was this?

……

Almost at the same time.

Outside Changning Guard City.

In a hidden manor, the moon was full.

A dignified middle-aged man in splendid clothes was watching the spirit fish in the small lake hunting.

From time to time, he would grab a few Ice Spirit Silkworms and throw them down, attracting the good-looking small predatory spirit fish to scramble for them.

Behind him.

The two Ancestors of the Liu and Zhao Clans, Liu Zhide and Zhao Bojun, stood with their hands hanging down, not daring to breathe too heavily, like two attendants ready to be dispatched at any time.

After a long time, the extraordinary middle-aged man finished feeding the fish, turned around and sat down to drink tea: "Liu Zhide, Zhao Bojun. Fifty years ago, we made an agreement, and since then we have not seen each other. Why do you two want to break the agreement today?"

"Senior."

Liu Zhide's cheeks twitched slightly, and he said cautiously, "We have nowhere else to go, so we came to ask for your help."

"The matter of the past has been settled." The middle-aged man drank his tea and said calmly, "You have also obtained the status you should have, and we owe each other nothing."

"Senior." Zhao Bojun said in a deep voice, "But don't forget, if we let the Wang's Clan rise, once they know the truth of the past..."

"Oh?" The middle-aged man said with a smile, "Ancestor Bojun, are you threatening me?"

Zhao Bojun broke out in a cold sweat and quickly bowed, "Bojun dares not, it's just that our two clans are now at a life-and-death juncture, and we ask the senior to lend us a hand."

The middle-aged man drank his tea and half-closed his eyes.

"Senior, the situation is like this." Liu Zhide took a step forward and said cautiously, "The Wang's Clan is now rampant, mainly because of the new Clan Leader, Wang Shouzhe. If we can eliminate him, the rise of the Wang's Clan will definitely be curbed."

Seeing that the middle-aged man did not object.

Liu Zhide added, "But that Wang Shouzhe is very cunning, his actions are unpredictable, and he has many cards in his hand. And recently he has been staying at home, making it impossible for us to find an opportunity."

"Now we have received news that the Wang's Clan will still hold the traditional autumn and winter hunting event this time. This will be the only chance for our Liu and Zhao Clans to turn the tables. As long as we can eliminate Wang Shouzhe, or even Long Yan, and those younger generations... The Wang's Clan will be like a grasshopper after autumn, unable to jump for a few days."

The middle-aged man drank his tea and chuckled slightly, "You two venerable Ancestors, can't even deal with a half-crippled Long Yan?"

Liu Zhide and Zhao Bojun looked at each other awkwardly.

Zhao Bojun said helplessly, "Senior, you don't know, that Wang Shouzhe is young, but he is cunning like a fox and afraid of death. Moreover, he is making a big fuss about going to the autumn and winter hunt, and he may not be trying to lure the snake out of the hole and eliminate us instead."

"As the saying goes, we should be prepared for the enemy. We need to estimate that besides Long Yan, there is at least one, and very likely two Spirit Platform Realm cultivators by his side."

"Therefore, we need a strong ally who can restrain Long Yan." Liu Zhide added, "As long as this is the case, I and Brother Bojun can restrain the two possible Spirit Platform Realm cultivators. And the rest of our two clans' elite clansmen will be enough to kill Wang Shouzhe and all the younger generations.""Two Spirit Platform Realm?" The middle-aged man sneered, "Are you overestimating Wang Shouzhe? Inviting the Ancestor of another clan to participate in a clan battle is a taboo in Daqian. How many Ancestors would risk so much for him?"

"The last time with Gongsun Man, it was already pushing the line. But he didn't initiate the attack, you guys charged at him, he could only defend himself. Besides, the battles in the foreign territories are dangerous, no one dares to risk falling."

"Elder, we understand the principle." Liu Zhide said helplessly, "As the saying goes, 'prepare for the worst', this battle, our Liu and Zhao Clans can't afford to lose."

"Hmph, prepare for the worst, you guys are really prepared." The middle-aged man said coldly, "Our clan has always been a law-abiding family in Daqian, we will never send our people to participate in the disputes of other families without reason."

What?

Liu Zhide and Zhao Bojun looked disappointed and slightly angry. If they couldn't get reinforcements here, where could they get them?

"However," the middle-aged man said indifferently, "I have a friend who is in the middle stage of the Spirit Platform Realm. He is a rogue cultivator with no sect or family. He is a man of great righteousness, always ready to fight injustice. As long as you can afford to pay, he will do anything."

Liu Zhide and Zhao Bojun were overjoyed, as if they had grasped the last straw of life: "Elder, please tell us, no matter how much it costs, we will hire him."

"Wang Long Yan is very powerful, less than ten thousand Top Gold, I'm afraid she won't agree."

"Ten thousand?"

"If you can't afford it, forget it."

"We can! Even if we have to pawn our clan's property, we must pay."

……

Early the next morning.

Wang Shouzhe, who had been exploring alone all night, couldn't wait to arrive at Long Yan's residence and meet Ancestor Long Yan.

Naturally, no one was allowed to enter the boudoir of Ancestor Long Yan.

She received Wang Shouzhe in the pavilion, seeing the joy in his eyes, she said: "Shouzhe, you look happy, you must have successfully awakened your bloodline, congratulations."

She was not sure about the efficacy of the stone marrow, nor could she determine whether that drop of stone marrow could help Shouzhe awaken his bloodline.

Therefore, seeing that Wang Shouzhe had finally succeeded in awakening, she was naturally happy for him.

"Ancestor." Wang Shouzhe saluted, "I have awakened the talent of the wood bloodline, but I'm not sure which kind of wood bloodline it is."

Human bloodline talents are diverse, even within the same series, there are various differences, even fundamental differences.

"Wood bloodline talent?" Ancestor Long Yan frowned slightly, but still praised, "It seems not bad, there is a Changchun in the academy who has the wood bloodline talent, um... his lifespan seems to be very long. I also have a senior who has a double wood bloodline, very capable... of enduring. Shouzhe, show me, don't be discouraged, having a bloodline awakening is always better than not having one."

From the expression of Ancestor Long Yan, it seemed that she didn't think highly of the wood bloodline. The two examples she gave seemed to be reluctant praises.

Wang Shouzhe's heart was a bit cold.

He felt that his wood bloodline talent seemed quite powerful, with a wide range of applications.

Why didn't the Ancestor seem to think highly of it?

Immediately, with a nervous heart, he started from a dead branch in the yard, making it spring again.

Then he made a withered flower bud again, bloom a fresh flower. The whole process took less than ten breaths.

Then, he demonstrated the ability to heal and whiten wounds.

After a series of dazzling operations, he nervously said to Ancestor Long Yan: "I haven't tried healing internal injuries and detoxification yet, but I feel like I should be able to. Ancestor, what kind of wood bloodline talent do I have?"

Unexpectedly, Ancestor Long Yan's body had already stiffened on the spot, looking up and down, left and right at Wang Shouzhe, she said in a low voice: "You call this a wood bloodline talent? Are you trying to make me happy?"

"Uh... Ancestor, is there something wrong?" Wang Shouzhe asked curiously.

"Nothing's wrong, it's just different from the wood bloodline talents I've seen." Ancestor Long Yan said in a low voice.

"Ancestor, what's different?"

"Shouzhe, everything is different."

"......" Wang Shouzhe was confused, he had never seen a wood bloodline talent, he just felt that his talent was a wood bloodline talent. He said helplessly, "Ancestor, what kind of bloodline talent do I have?"

Ancestor Long Yan took some time to digest the shock in her heart, then said: "The ancient bloodlines of the Ancestors are numerous, and with each generation, some mutant bloodline talents are born. I am just a Spirit Platform Realm, my knowledge is inevitably shallow, I can't tell what kind of bloodline talent you have. You might as well consider it as a wood bloodline talent."

What does 'might as well consider' mean?

Wang Shouzhe felt a little uneasy in his heart, a talent that couldn't be determined always felt a bit unreliable. But for now, even Ancestor Long Yan couldn't tell, so he could only consider it as a wood bloodline talent.

Anyway, he wasn't the only one in the family with a similar situation, his great-niece Wang Lici's bloodline talent, the Ancestor also couldn't tell.

But even if she couldn't tell, the healer's position probably wouldn't be lost.

Being a healer was not shameful.

Besides, the sisters and great-nieces in the family were all very fierce. Having his kind of talent would also provide security for them.

"By the way, Ancestor." Wang Shouzhe asked curiously, "How does my talent compare to those wood bloodline talents you just mentioned?"

Ancestor Long Yan said indifferently: "Naturally, your bloodline talent is much more powerful, I have never seen a bloodline talent that can heal so quickly and stimulate plant growth in such a short time.""So it seems that my bloodline talent is quite extraordinary." Wang Shouzhe was a little excited, and immediately asked, "Ancestor, your ice bloodline talent is a special attribute, right? How does it compare to yours? Which is superior and which is inferior?"

Suddenly, Ancestor Long Yan didn't want to talk to him anymore. She coldly glared at him. If she had Wang Shouzhe's peculiar bloodline talent, why would she have been tormented by the Yin Sha Qi for fifty years?

She would have killed the Liu and Zhao clans back and forth twice already.

Seeing that the Ancestor seemed a bit moody, Wang Shouzhe immediately changed the subject: "Ancestor, what about the matter with Elder Zhong? Should you meet him? It's not good for him to always stay at our house."

"No." Ancestor Long Yan said coldly, "If he wants to stay, let him stay. Shouzhe, remember, our family is poor, don't feed him all kinds of good food, as long as he doesn't starve to death."

Wang Shouzhe broke out in a cold sweat. Our Ancestor really is a cold and domineering goddess.

Perhaps because her injuries were gradually healing, the burden on her shoulders was gradually lightening, and the family was thriving. Ancestor Long Yan was no longer as gloomy as she was at the beginning.

She was gradually returning to her original character, becoming more active and relaxed. A few days ago, she even pretended to be her sister Luo Yi and took Qian Xue'an's meeting red envelope...

It's estimated that when Ancestor Long Yan was a young lady, she wasn't an easy target to bully.

Although he felt a little sorry for Zhong Xingwang, his own Ancestor was the most important, and sympathy could only be thrown out of his mind.

Wang Shouzhe was afraid that Zhong Xingwang would be particularly fond of this, the colder the goddess, the more he wanted to stick his hot face to her cold butt. If this was the case, there would really be no hope.

......

After saying goodbye to the Ancestor.

Wang Shouzhe received a report from his Sixth Uncle Wang Dinghai that the young clan leader of the Chen Clan had arrived as promised.

More than an hour later.

On the An River.

Inside an inconspicuous boat, Wang Shouzhe and Chen Fangjie were drinking tea.

After a few words.

Chen Fangjie's face was slightly solemn, and he sighed: "Shouzhe, it's not that I'm shirking this matter. The laws of the Great Qian are very taboo against the ancestors of various families joining hands to participate in the life-and-death struggle between families."

"You know, the Great Qian was founded by noble families. If the Great Qian does not strictly prohibit this, it is very easy to trigger a larger scale of death fights between the interest groups of noble families and the marriage groups. What order would the Great Qian have then?"

"Shouzhe, if you don't mind, I can disguise myself and accompany you through this."

"I understand your concern, Brother Chen." Wang Shouzhe smiled and poured him tea, "But, Brother Chen, you misunderstood my request. I didn't ask the Chen Clan's Ancestor to participate in the family death duel, I just wanted to ask your noble Ancestor to help intercept possible lawbreakers. This can only be considered as upholding justice."

"Do you mean that the Liu and Zhao clans might ask for outside help? And my Ancestor's task is just to restrain the other party's outside help? And not directly participate in the clan fight?" Chen Fangjie was shocked.

"If the task is like this, I will promise on behalf of our Ancestor. Our two clans are close relatives, how can we just watch the enemy clan bully us by asking for outside help? If this is the case, our Chen Clan will also have a justified reason to fight, not to mention restraining, it's not a pity to kill that outside help."

"After the matter is done, one thousand Top Gold." Wang Shouzhe smiled, "But it has to be your noble Ruhong Ancestor, after all, he is at the peak of the mid-stage of the Lingtai Realm."

"Do you really need Ruhong Ancestor to make a move?" Chen Fangjie asked seriously, "Is it necessary to be so cautious?"

"Better safe than sorry, our Wang Clan can't afford to lose." Wang Shouzhe said lightly.

"Honestly, one thousand Top Gold is not a small amount." Chen Fangjie said with a thick face, "But Shouzhe, you've been making a fortune recently, can't you give more to poor people like me?"

"It's just a matter of making a move to restrain, this is already a big favor to me." Wang Shouzhe laughed, "If you don't want to, I can go to the Liu Clan..."

"I'm willing, of course I'm willing." Chen Fangjie hurriedly said, "One thousand is one thousand, don't go to the Liu Clan, they are rich now."

The Ancestor makes a move and earns one thousand, no matter how many times the Ancestor makes a move, he is willing.

Besides, this kind of thing is asked to him, with their marriage relationship, even if there is no money, he has to uphold justice.

Picking up one thousand for nothing, Chen Fangjie was in a good mood.

He also knew that Shouzhe was compensating him for not getting a share of the spoils last time.

However, thinking about Wang Shouzhe making a fortune with two Heavenly Spirit Pills last time, his heart was sour.

Immediately, he thickened his face and said: "Shouzhe, as you said, better safe than sorry. What if the other party asks for two outside helps? Our Ancestor Junyao is also free recently, he is in the early stage of the Lingtai Realm, I'll give you a discount, eight hundred Top Gold!"

"Hehe~" Wang Shouzhe drank his tea and laughed, "I have to give some benefits to my mother's clan, the Yingxiu Lu Clan, right?"

"You also invited the Lu Clan? How wide do you want to be with this better safe than sorry?" Chen Fangjie took a deep breath, "Be honest, is Ancestor Mang going or not?"

"Ancestor Mang has helped our family a lot, how can we not bring him in this good money-making business?" Wang Shouzhe leisurely drank his tea, "Our Wang Clan can't afford to lose, who knows how many outside helps the Liu and Zhao clans can ask for? They have a history, I'm just being cautious."

"......" Chen Fangjie was speechless.

Shouzhe, how afraid of death are you? Better safe than sorry, you're being too cautious. With such a lineup, even if the other party has outside help, the outside help would be scared to death, right?

He had a feeling that if the Liu and Zhao clans dared to jump into this pit, they were probably going to be in big trouble.
