Protect Our Chief

Chapter 981 - 50: Birth of the Young Immortal Kun! Yian Family Maiden’s Secret Affection_3

Unexpectedly, the Patriarch Shouzhe of the Wang Family turned out to be so difficult to deal with. Until now, neither of them understood why he turned hostile that day."Ancestor, although the Wang Family is indeed more outstanding than we imagined," Yian Feihong said helplessly, "it’s no solution to keep dragging this out. Perhaps Patriarch Shouzhe looks down on us~ We might use an alternative plan and seek an alliance with the Zuoqiu Family of Qeng’an County instead."

"Sigh~ Let’s wait and see. Firstly, the Zuoqiu Family is enormous, and their internal structure is too complex," Yu Fei Ancestor pondered, "Secondly, the Zuoqiu Family has had confrontations and friction with the Wang and Qiaan Families and was even repelled. If we ally with the Zuoqiu Family, we’ll certainly offend the powerful families from our hometown. The Wang Family is much stronger than I imagined."

"No wonder even the Qiaan Family now subtly takes the Wang Family as a model."

Yu Fei Ancestor sighed and said, "Try to fight for it a bit more~ After all, the Wang Family has a good reputation. Once they agree, they won’t go back on their word, making them more reliable than other noble families."

The reason he sought out the Wang Family was majorly because of this.

The situations within noble families are complex; some families are filled with internal strife. If Shuangshuang were to marry there, she would not only suffer but might not achieve the purpose of continuing the Yian Family, making it a lousy deal.

In comparison, the Wang Family is much better. At the very least, the wives married into the Wang Family live well, which is renowned throughout Longzuo County.

While the two elders of the Yian Family were worrying themselves over family affairs, two Spiritual Bird Flying Chariots descended from the sky, landing directly at the Flying Palace Station beside the Wang Family’s accommodation hotel.

A group of vibrant young people disembarked from the two flying chariots, joyously heading towards the restaurant.

"Brother Shifeng, thank you for taking the time to show us around [Shouzhe Pass]. It was so magnificent and awe-inspiring," Yian Shuangshuang’s pretty face was slightly flushed, partly from excitement and partly from shyness, as she sneakily glanced at Wang Shifeng with a unique girlish affection in her eyes.

Besides Yian Shuangshuang, the other two girls also developed some fondness for the young members of the Wang Family.

They are all second legitimate daughters, not qualified to compete with Yian Shuangshuang and privately feel they aren’t a match for Wang Shifeng. Hence, they focused their attention on the sixteenth Wang Shijing and seventeenth Wang Shilin siblings.

At nineteen and sixteen years old respectively, they are the grandsons of Wang Shouyong and Wang Shou Lian, both promising young talents among the Wang Family’s younger generation. Although slightly inferior to Wang Shifeng, they are considered outstanding among the young elites throughout Longzuo County.

In noble family marriages, typically, it’s the females who marry up.

The three young legitimate males from the Yian Family, after witnessing the brilliance of the Wang Family, found themselves increasingly timid in front of Wang Yinglei, Wang Yinghuan, and Wang Yingmeng, the three direct-lineage ladies of the Wang Family, losing all confidence, with not even the courage to pursue them.

Moreover, the young ladies of the Wang Family differ from those of other families, as their family might suggest alliances with certain families, yet whether they fancy them and choose to marry lies entirely in their own decision.

As for the treatment of the family’s male members, it is completely different. Regarding direct lineage males of suitable age, Wang Shouzhe would undertake various methods to promote marriages.

As for legitimate males, their fate is even sadder, often facing the Patriarch’s coercion into arranged marriages, similar to how Wang Shizhao was promised by words exchanged before birth.

Besides suffering from a severe "fear of insufficient combat power," Wang Shouzhe also harbors a profound "fear of insufficient clan members."

In addition to leading by example, having fathered five children, his methods of pressuring marriages among the Wang Family’s males are endless.

Once the males are married, those who have children quickly and in large numbers receive smiles and red envelope rewards from the Patriarch Shouzhe readily. However, anyone daring to delay childbirth often face pressure tactics from the Patriarch and show no pleasant face at meetings.

As a result, the males of the Wang Family don’t resist interactions with the Yian Family women. After all, they come from a Fifth Grade Noble Family as legitimate daughters or second legitimate daughters, who aren’t that lacking in standing.

Yu Fei Ancestor and Yian Feihong, through a glass window, saw this scene.

The two exchanged a look, both astonished at how quickly the family girls were lost, yet discontent with the timid legitimate male descendants who lacked even the courage to speak more to the Wang Family girls, secretly angry at their lack of ambition.

Simultaneously, a strong sense of crisis surged into the hearts of the two Yian Family elders.

The matter cannot be delayed any longer, or else, the initiative of the Yian Family will be utterly lost, risking losing both members and soldiers.

...

At the same time.

Zhuwei Lake Heart, Water Moon Celestial Pavilion.

Having borne the special memories of Wang Shouzhe for several decades, it has now been temporarily sealed away.

Firstly, he now possesses a Small Personal Grotto Mansion, a High Tier treasure.

Secondly, Wang Shouzhe once entrusted Celestial River Zhenren to employ divine techniques to extract a miniature Upper Grade Water Element Spiritual Vein and transplant it under the Water Moon Celestial Pavilion, arranging a Spirit Gathering Array to concentrate Spiritual Qi within a certain range.

This keeps the Water Moon Celestial Pavilion shrouded in water vapor Spiritual Qi year-round, making it ideal for Liua Ruolan’s daily cultivation. After all, the Water Moon Celestial Pavilion was originally built for Liua Ruolan’s seclusion practice.

But despite the significant cost of arranging the miniature Upper Grade Water Spiritual Vein, it ultimately wasn’t put to much use.
