Protect Our Clan Leader

As a direct descendant of a celestial being’s prominent family and the future successor of the family, when has he ever been treated with such insolence?

Just when both parties are about to clash.

Wang Shouye steps forward to intervene: “Wait.” He then looks at the elder and Wang Shouyue with questioning eyes. “Are you guests of the Longzuo Wang family?”

The younger generation may not be familiar with the Longzuo Wang family, but they at least know such a family exists.

Just as Wang Shouyue is about to speak, Wang Xiaozheng interrupts him. He personally says to Wang Shouye: “Seventh Prince, you must be aware of our Longzuo Wang family. I kindly request that these soldiers step back to avoid any misunderstandings.”

As he says this, Wang Xiaozheng takes out a family token and hands it to Wang Shouye.

Wang Shouye, however, doesn’t understand.

But he’s smart, so he considers in secret that regardless of whether these two are from Longzuo Wang family, he can bring them back to the main residence.

If they indeed belong, there won’t be any breach of etiquette.

If they don’t, they’re the unfortunate ones; there are powerful people in his family who can deal with them.

And so, Wang Shouye dismisses the soldiers, welcomes them according to etiquette, invites them into the Wang family’s carriage, and heads towards the Wang family’s main residence.

Their own accompanying carriage is driven by the carriage driver to follow suit.

Almost at the same time.

A few hawk-like gray birds fly out flutteringly. Clearly, in no time, the Wang family’s main residence would receive this news and make a judgment accordingly.

The carriage ride remains silent.

After more than an hour, the elegant elder Wang Xiaozheng, barely suppressing his curiosity, asks: “Which one of you two young princes is the direct-line heir of the Wang family?”

Both Wang Shouye and Wang Zongsheng are stunned at the same time.

Uh…

Dear elder, from where did you perceive our nephew and uncle pair to have the qualities of a direct-line?

They shake their heads in tandem: “Neither of us.”

How is that possible?

Both Wang Xiaozheng and Wang Shouyue show confusion on their faces, shocked.

Is this a joke? Such excellent young men are not the direct-line successors of the family?

A short pause later, Wang Shouyue chuckles and says: “Seventh prince, you are likely the direct-line heir, right? One can tell from your demeanor and bearing.”

Wang Shouye who admires his fourth brother the most, quickly shakes his head and says: “How can I, Shouye, be worthy enough to be compared with Fourth Brother?”

Wang Zongsheng also quickly shakes his head, they can’t be compared, can’t be compared.

“Fourth Brother?” Wang Shouyue looks puzzled.

“That’s right. In our Ping’an Wang family, my Fourth Brother is the direct-line heir, the Clan Leader of this generation,” Wang Shouye says honestly. “When you meet my Fourth Brother later, you’ll understand.”

At the same time, his eyes reveal the admiration he holds for his fourth brother, an imposing figure he will look up to for his entire life.

Both Wang Xiaozheng and Wang Shouyue exchange astonished looks. Could it be that the Fourth Brother mentioned is even more outstanding than these two young princes?

Is that even possible?

Especially Wang Shouyue, who can’t help but secretly ponder whether this so-called Fourth Brother is simply someone who carries the direct-line’s bloodline and may not be particularly exceptional.

He has no choice but to think this way.

The two young men in front of him are already remarkable.

If there indeed exists an even stronger Fourth Brother, won’t that mean he, Wang Shouyue, is inferior?

Just as he is engrossed in his thoughts, a flurry of hoofbeats sounds from a fork in the road ahead.

Everyone lifts the curtain of the carriage to see a group of knights galloping from another branch of the fork, behind them pulling a small cart carrying an enormous beast’s corpse. The beast, presumably weighing several hundred pounds, seems to be a Level Two Fierce Beast.

And the beast, its head pierced by a sharp arrow, is obviously killed in one blow.

The leading knight, riding a black steed, is remarkably an elegant-looking young woman.

As the hooves tear through the wind, the lady’s red Profound Martial suit ripples magnificently in the wind. She is truly an impressive figure, almost like a heroine.

The moment the female knight spots the carriage, along with Wang Shouye and Wang Zongsheng peeking out, she immediately rides forward to greet them.

She cracks her whip in the air.

“Pop!”

She jokes in a hearty tone: “Seventh Brother, you didn’t even come home for the New Year. Did the pretty young ladies of Changning’s guards dazzle you so much that you’ve forgotten about your Fourth Sister?”

“Fourth Sister…” Wang Shouye’s face drops, he quickly gets off the carriage, bows respectfully with a bitter smile, “Even you’ve started to tease me?”

Seeing this vibrant woman, Wang Shouyue becomes excited and stunned.

This beautiful and heroic woman seems only about twenty-four or twenty-five, with deep and unfathomable cultivation base, he even can’t see through her.

Moreover, looking at the strong bow and sharp arrows hanging on the side of her steed, it could be inferred that she personally shot that Level Two Fierce Beast.

For a moment, Wang Shouyue’s heart is turmoil; he’s unable to stay calm.

What on earth is going on with this Ping’an Wang family?
