CHAPTER 426: CHAPTER 101: SUPPORTING ANCESTOR LONGYAN TO BECOME A STRONGER PERSON

...

Huangfu Jinhuan’s mood today has been a roller coaster. First, he was excited and inflated after defeating the young master, and then he was taken aback by Wang Shouzhe’s praying mantis catching a cicada, with a yellow sparrow behind.

Unexpectedly, thanks to Prince Yin Yuzhe being parasitized by the Marriage Robe Blood Gu Emperor, he gained strength and held back the academy’s direct disciple, causing the situation to change dramatically once more.

Great joy and great sorrow, then great sorrow and great joy, nothing more than this.

"Wang Shouzhe, you didn’t expect this twist, did you?" Huangfu Jinhuan couldn’t help but laugh heartily; immediately, his eyes turned cold with sudden killing intent, "Let’s see how you play the mantis catching the cicada, with the yellow sparrow behind today!"

He could see clearly that the Huangfu Family still had two in the Celestial Human Realm and five in the Spirit Platform Realm.

On Wang Shouzhe’s side, there were also two in the Celestial Human Realm, but Xu Beichen was a newly promoted Celestial Human, certainly far from being a match for Ancestor Hua Ye.

In terms of the Spirit Platform Realm, there were only Wang Longyan, Wang Shouzhe, Liua Ruolan, and a cloaked male in the Spirit Platform Realm.

Even if Wang Longyan was very strong, he was confident that, with five in the Spirit Platform Realm on his side, he could hold off the four from the other side. As long as they held out until Ancestor Hua Ye dealt with Xu Beichen, Wang Shouzhe would no longer be able to rise up!

"Indeed. I’m not a god, how could I foresee such a change with Yin Yuzhe?" Wang Shouzhe raised his eyebrows, his tone still calm and relaxed, "However, it is fine, let’s regard it as fate’s arrangement. Our two families are meant to settle the score here. The enmity that started with the fall of my Ancestor Zhou Xuan should also be resolved today."

"That’s right. The fact that my Huangfu Family has fallen to this state is all thanks to you, Wang Shouzhe." The hate in Huangfu Jinhuan’s eyes was intense, "Today, between my Huangfu Family and your Wang Family, a conclusion will be made here."

Developments had reached a point where there was no longer any room for maneuver, so there was no need for more words.

Wang Shouzhe cupped his hands in salute towards Ancestor Xiangyang: "Ancestor Xiangyang, it’s my miscalculation that caused some crisis in the situation."

Ancestor Xiangyang smiled calmly: "Before making a decision, I will consider it carefully. But the moment I decided to cooperate with you, I let go of all distractions and gave it my all."

In this world, what is perfect and completely satisfactory? Moreover, the Huangfu Family is just slightly advantaged now. Who knows whose hands the deer will fall into?

"As expected of Ancestor Xiangyang, truly insightful." Wang Shouzhe smiled and cupped his hands once more in thanks, "However, the Hundred Islands Zhong Family and the Changning Huangfu Family have had neither past grudges nor present enmity. Ancestor Xiangyang only needs to help hold off Ancestor Yuanwu, the rest can be left to me."

He had long investigated and understood Ancestor Xiangyang’s character, demeanor, and style of doing things before deciding that this person was reliable and found a way to bring him into the fold.

"This is simple enough. Leave it to me then."

Ancestor Xiangyang nodded with a relaxed expression, then looked at Xiao Yuanwu of the An Yuan Xiao Family, and laughed heartily: "Brother Yuanwu, you also heard Shouzhe’s request. We two are old acquaintances, why not go aside for a chat and a tea, and not get involved in others’ family affairs?"

"This... Brother Xiangyang, you have no relationship with the Ping’an Wang Family, why involve yourself in this?" Ancestor Yuanwu’s face looked troubled, after all, the An Yuan Xiao Family had a long-standing marriage alliance with the Changning Huangfu Family.

"It’s just a matter of stance." Ancestor Xiangyang stood with his hands behind his back, speaking candidly, "You know I, Zhong Xiangyang, have traded in the black market for many years and value nothing more than the word ’promise.’ Since I promised my friend Shouzhe, I will naturally give it my all. If Brother Yuanwu is unwilling to drink tea, I wouldn’t mind a contest with you. However, we cannot say what will be the outcome, life or death."

Ancestor Xiangyang’s words were very imposing, clearly confident in his strength.

Ancestor Yuanwu’s face turned a bit dark.

He had already expended a lot after a fierce battle, and now the Hundred Islands Guard Xiangyang Ancestor was a difficult opponent, leaving him with no chance of winning if a fight broke out.

After all, who knows how many trump cards this old fellow Xiangyang, dealing with the black market for so long, had hidden up his sleeve?

"Brother Yuanwu, you can see that the potential of the Ping’an Wang Family is extraordinary, why persist in making them your enemy?" Ancestor Xiangyang clearly understood Ancestor Yuanwu’s mindset and persuaded once more, "Do you also wish for the An Yuan Xiao Family to follow the path of decline just like the Changning Huangfu Family?"

"Ancestor Yuanwu, the An Yuan Xiao Family has a long history and good reputation. If not necessary, our Wang Family does not wish to become enemies with An Yuan Xiao Family." Wang Shouzhe too cupped his hands from afar, "Your previous assistance to the Huangfu Family was out of the moral obligation of your familial ties, and that is understandable. But that the Changning Huangfu Family has come to this day is due to human greed and rashness leading them astray, so why should the An Yuan Xiao Family follow them down the same dark path?"

Wang Shouzhe’s words really hit the mark, shaking Ancestor Yuanwu, who was already hesitantly pondering.

He took a deep breath and said: "I have no grievances with Brother Xiangyang, there’s really no need for a life-or-death struggle. So, we’ll sit and have some tea and discuss the Dao."

"Hahaha~ Alright!"

Ancestor Xiangyang laughed heartily and gestured to the side: "Brother Yuanwu, please."
