Protect Our Chief-Chapter 620 - 59 Tragedy! Wang Shihai

...

Although Wang Shihai was a trouble-making young scion, when it concerned ancestral traditions and the family’s reputation, he didn’t dare to overstep the boundaries.

Nevertheless, following the rules is one thing, but he called this "Fourth Uncle" with great reluctance, feeling utterly aggrieved.

"Shihai," Wang Shouzhe looked at him with "affectionate" eyes, patted his shoulder, and said, "You’re not very old, but your cultivation foundation is quite solid, and your future holds limitless possibilities~~~ However, no matter how good your talent is, you must calm your mind and cultivate diligently."

Wang Shouzhe, at forty years old, had long stepped into the Sixth Layer of the Spirit Platform Realm, steadily progressing toward the late stage of the Spirit Platform Realm. Especially after his recent surge in bloodline power, it had awakened to the Triple Peak level, just a step away from a Spirit Body.

As a result, aside from having a mature demeanor, his appearance didn’t differ much from someone in their twenties, completely resembling Wang Shihai’s peer.

This bizarre scenario made Wang Shihai feel his blood boiling, with a strong urge to punch Wang Shouzhe.

However, a senior from the same clan is still a senior.

I endure!

Wang Shihai’s mouth twitched, forcing a strained smile: "Thank you, ’Fourth Uncle,’ for your praise and guidance. Shihai will remember it."

"Since it’s our first meeting, your Fourth Uncle didn’t bring anything good," Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, and after some thought, he touched the storage ring, took out a red envelope, and placed it in Wang Shihai’s hand. "Let’s just go with the cliché; buy something you like to eat."

Rumble!

Wang Shihai was thunderstruck, seething inside: Does this young master look like he lacks money? Do I look like someone short of cash?

However, with his father watching from the side, he didn’t dare act out no matter how bold he felt. All he could do was blush, accept the red envelope, and pretend to be pleased: "Thank you, Fourth Uncle, for your generosity."

He had already learned that the Changning Wang Family had only recently risen to the status of a Seventh-Grade Noble Family. It was a poor little family, with an annual income of at most a couple of hundred thousand, leaving only a few Qian Gold after deducting family expenses.

This thin gold note was probably worth at most a hundred Qian Gold. As the legitimate young master of the Southern Desert Wang Family, a family prodigy, and a beloved child of the ancestors, did he lack this hundred Qian Gold?

On the side, Patriarch Wang Zonghao, seeing his youngest son’s blushing, aggrieved look, was not unhappy; rather, he was quite gratified.

This boy had always been unruly, but today he managed to control his temper... such improvement~~~

Wang Shouzhe originally just wanted to tease the young celestial pride of the family, not seeking trouble intentionally. Seeing the level achieved, he shifted to formally engaging in conversation with the Southern Desert Wang Family’s Patriarch Wang Zonghao.

At the same time, he introduced Ancestor Longyan and Qiaan Xuehan, as well as the two elders of the Qiaan Family.

After a lively round of introductions. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Wang Zonghao seriously cupped his hands, "Patriarch Shouzhe and Ancestor Longyan are our Southern Desert Wang Family’s clan relatives. Since you have come to Southern Desert County, there’s no reason not to stay at our home. I have already arranged a top-notch residence for you to stay in. Please don’t decline, Fourth Uncle."

He had a valid point.

This was also rightful etiquette among relatives, otherwise, it would easily lead to gossip.

To this, Wang Shouzhe found it hard to decline, "In that case, I’ll trouble Patriarch Zonghao."

Wang Zonghao had specifically come to prevent Wang Shihai from causing trouble, and now that everything that needed handling was settled, he made a simple exchange of pleasantries and then took leave, entrusting Wang Shouzhe to Wang Shihai, instructing him to be sure to invite Wang Shouzhe and the others to stay at the Southern Desert Wang Family’s main residence after the banquet and to arrange a welcoming feast for the next day.

Poor Wang Shihai was thus left at Wang Shouzhe’s side.

After finally making it through the torturous meal, he hastily made arrangements and respectfully escorted Wang Shouzhe and his companions back to the main residence.

The next day.

At noon, the Southern Desert Wang Family hosted a welcoming feast. However, participating in this feast were only Patriarch Wang Zonghao, a Celestial Human Realm elder of the "Shou" generation, a Celestial Human Realm elder of the "Ding" generation, and the patriarch’s legitimate youngest son, Wang Shihai, four people in total.

It wasn’t until he met the elder of the "Shou" generation that Wang Shouzhe understood why the Southern Desert Wang Family’s generational order was so low. The "Shou" generation of the Southern Desert Wang Family were generally between one hundred and three hundred years old now.

Even the "Zong" generation was no longer young, the "Shih" generation also had "elders" over two hundred years old, then there were the "An," "Ning," "Fu," "Bao" generations, and more... Those generational titles not yet used by the Changning Wang Family were already all in use by the Southern Desert Wang Family.

Even their youngest generation had reached the "Yi" generation!

In such circumstances, any member of the Changning Wang Family who visited would automatically hold an ancestor-level generation in the Southern Desert Wang Family.

However, this situation was actually quite normal, as the Southern Desert Wang Family’s lineage stretched far back, creating more and more generational gaps between branches. Evidently, Wang Shihai’s generational rank within the Southern Desert Wang Family wasn’t low!

After going through a round of welcoming according to noble family etiquette, Wang Zonghao invited Wang Shouzhe to stay in the Southern Desert for a period to appreciate its scenery, with his legitimate son Wang Shihai as the host throughout the visit.
