Protect Our Chief-Chapter 684 - 83: The Increasingly Prosperous Wang Family_3

"Given this situation, it’s just as well. I’m finished discussing things with Shou Lian. Sister-in-law, you needn’t act personally. Simply ask the cook to prepare a new table. I haven’t seen several of the children in a while, and it’s a good opportunity to reacquaint with them and test them a bit," said Wang Shouzhe, suddenly energized.

In recent years, he had been focused on the final stages of breaking into the Celestial Human Realm, neglecting to supervise the children. Every child in the family is the future of the Wang Family, and as the head of the family, Wang Shouzhe naturally has the responsibility to urge them to advance.

"Fourth Brother... still as caring about the children as ever." Wang Shou Lian’s mustached mouth twitched slightly, a difficult-to-release shadow flashing in his eyes, consisting of both Fourth Brother’s tests and the "prodding" from his sister Wang Luqiu.

Zhou Qing Ning responded with a soft "Yes," covered her mouth laughingly, and went to prepare a new table. Fourth Uncle’s tests are indeed the "motivation" for the children’s growth. The children might not fear her, the kind mother, nor the strict father who is often away, but they certainly fear their clan leader, Fourth Uncle.

Before long.

In the side hall stood three young men and women. Each stood with their hands down, heads drooped, hardly daring to breathe deeply. Especially Wang Lixuan and Wang Zongping, who were already nearby doing tasks and stopped by to visit their father.

Little did they expect to bump straight into Fourth Uncle, certainly a case of venturing out without calculating good or bad luck. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

As for the youngest, Wang Zongtai, his little face was pale, eyes full of innocence at being implicated by his siblings.

"Bang!"

Wang Shou Lian slammed the table and barked angrily, "What’s with the expressions on your faces? Has your mother spoiled you all?"

"Shou Lian, don’t be fierce. You all needn’t be nervous," Wang Shouzhe chuckled and said, "Lixuan, you’ve grown to be a mature and sensible young lady, different from these two boys. You may sit first."

"Thank you, Fourth Uncle." Already in her twenties, Wang Lixuan had blossomed into a beauty, smiling sweetly at Wang Shouzhe, then sitting aside, turning her face away in a gesture of distinguishing herself from her two brothers.

The mere ten-year-old Wang Zongtai was stunned by his sister’s betrayal. Previously, his sister always treated him like a treasure. How come before Fourth Uncle, she immediately defected?

Still, Wang Zongping comprehended the situation quite well. Regardless of the sister’s betrayal, in Fourth Uncle’s presence, given an opportunity, he, Old Jiu, would betray too.

"Zongping, you’re sixteen this year, right?" Wang Shouzhe satisfactorily sized up Old Jiu from the "Zong" generation. This child certainly bore the classic fine appearance of the Wang Family, his sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes exuding vitality.

Furthermore, observing his stable and grounded walking, his body was filled with profound and solid Qi.

With Wang Shouzhe’s current Celestial Human Realm cultivation, he could tell at a glance that he had already broken through to the Seventh Layer of the Qi Refining Realm, indicating he paid great attention to fundamentals.

The descendants of the family were becoming increasingly Xingwang, with the male members of the Zong generation ranked up to the fifteenth, and the Li generation up to the thirteenth. Likewise, the Shi generation and Ying generation had all reached the Seventh.

It can be imagined, the future Zong generation will surely exceed the Shou generation in numbers, while the Shi generation will surpass the Zong generation. With each generation prospering over the last, this is the true foundation of the Wang Family’s future rise.

"Zongping is doing well, with very solid fundamental skills. Recently, follow the older family members or brothers to train good and hard," Wang Shouzhe praised.

Wang Zongping let out a sigh of relief and cupped his hands, saying, "Fourth Uncle, Zongping will certainly strive hard."

Then Wang Shouzhe looked at Wang Zongtai. Hmm, his fundamentals were quite decent, already stable at a high stage of the First Layer of the Qi Refining Realm. He then tested him academically...

The young ten-year-old Wang Zongtai, upon being scrutinized, shivered and quickly and cleverly shifted the topic, saying, "Fourth Uncle, I heard from Big Brother that he has someone he fancies—a very pretty loose cultivator sister."

What?

Wang Zongping’s face instantly darkened. This little rascal, to avoid being tested academically, instantly sold him out? Damn it, where’s the brotherly affection?

Wang Shouzhe had yet to speak.

To the side, Wang Shou Lian roared angrily, his hair standing on end, "Disobedient son, how dare you!" He had always served in the Patrol Camp, capturing countless loose cultivator criminals in his life. To him, most loose cultivators were lawless rogues.
