…

The two girls have gained a lot and have started trading with each other.

On the other hand, the two older boys in the family are still locked in a stalemate with their opponents. Their opponents are only at the second level of the Qi Refining Realm, but they are very skilled at working together.

The brothers have no choice but to join forces to fight. They are evenly matched and the battle is intense.

In addition, the scar-faced bandit leader has not made a move.

Among the group of bandits, he has the highest cultivation level, almost reaching the fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm. It is quite rare for a wandering cultivator to reach such a level at the age of forty.

Unlike the disciples and family members of the clan, who receive generous offerings every year and even additional rewards for doing well, the resources for cultivation for wandering cultivators are often unstable, and most of the resources they obtain come at the cost of their lives.

Some may ask why wandering cultivators, who are so poor, don’t join a prestigious family as family members? This is indeed one way for wandering cultivators, but most prestigious families have strict requirements for recruiting family members, such as having a clean background, clear origins, and good character.

Even so, most prestigious families are not willing to recruit wandering cultivators as family members, preferring to follow the path they have cultivated since childhood.

Even if prestigious families need to use wandering cultivators, they mostly hire them at a high price as cannon fodder or use them for some shady business.

The reason why the scar-faced wandering cultivator has not made a move is because he has been under the watchful eye of Wang Shouzhe.

The young man who looks about eighteen or nineteen years old gives him an unfathomable feeling. It is obvious that the other party’s strength far surpasses his own.

This kind of terrifying sense of oppression can only be felt from experts in the later stage of the Qi Refining Realm.

A young expert in the later stage of the Qi Refining Realm like this is undoubtedly the result of a prestigious family’s exhaustive resources and careful cultivation. They are destined to walk the path of spiritual enlightenment in the future.

And the only one in Ping’an Town who has reached such a level is just a rumor.

He has tried several times to escape, but he knows that as long as he moves, he will be struck by the other party’s thunderous attack.

At this moment, he can no longer hold back and swallows his saliva, saying, “Are you Wang Shouzhe, the Clan Leader of Wang’s Clan in Ping’an Town? I am Scar-Faced Fifth, and since I have fallen into your hands, I surrender.” Of course, the name is not his real name. There are plenty of similar names in the world of wandering cultivators.

“Hehe~” Wang Shouzhe doesn’t answer, but continues to focus on the battle between Wang Shouyong and Wang Shoulian. As for Scar-Faced Fifth, he can’t figure out Wang Shouzhe’s intentions and can only wait obediently.

As for the two male members of the Wang Clan, they were just average before. Under the pressure of their elders, their cultivation was also mediocre. However, because the clan was so poor, most of the resources were invested in Wang Shouzhe.

Therefore, their cultivation only reached a level where they could barely pass, and they never expected to walk the path of spiritual enlightenment.

It was not until Wang Luoqiu, the catfish spirit, stirred things up that they started to desperately cultivate, showing some progress. However, their opponents were also very experienced, and the two sides were evenly matched.

Wang Shouzhe came out this time with a plan to kill two birds with one stone. He wouldn’t let the bandits go, and he could also train his younger siblings, as well as instill in them the right worldview.

But they couldn’t break through.

Wang Luoqiu started her mocking attack again, “Wang Shouyong, Wang Shoulian, are you going to waste any more time? Luo Jing, let’s split them up.” Her eyes were full of excitement, obviously wanting to make a profit and fatten her wallet.

The faces of the two boys turned red, and they gritted their teeth and fought desperately. Finally, after a few risky moves, they managed to defeat the two wandering cultivators. Their performance could only be considered mediocre.

The “Xuan Yuan Jue” of the Wang Clan is a middle-grade cultivation technique, and the various basic body techniques and combat skills in the family are also good. They should have a relative advantage against these wandering cultivators who often don’t even have a complete “Lower Grade Cultivation Technique”.

But unexpectedly, at the same level of cultivation, they had to exchange injuries to barely defeat their opponents.

Their faces naturally turned red, but recently they had been mocked by their younger sister too much, so Wang Shouyong and Wang Shoulian had thickened their skin and quickly learned to collect the spoils.

“Not bad, there is some improvement overall.” Wang Shouzhe somewhat acknowledged and praised, “Shouyong, Shoulian, you fought bravely and made progress. Although you are injured, as men, you need to experience some hardships to see the rainbow. Go and bandage yourselves.”

He had been watching them all along, and if his younger brother was in great danger, he would naturally intervene immediately.

“Yes, Fourth Brother.” The two boys obediently stepped aside to bandage themselves, their faces flushed with excitement, a mix of joy from defeating a strong enemy and the pleasure of being praised by their Fourth Brother.

The rules imposed by the elders on the male members of the clan are much stricter than those imposed on the girls, which makes their personalities generally more stable. In their eyes, the girls are destined to get married sooner or later, so being just average is enough.

And Wang Shouzhe is their most admired and respected older brother. It is a rare occasion to receive his praise, and they are very happy.

“Not bad, you have shown some masculinity. This Miss is starting to look at you differently. It seems that my special training for you has not been in vain.” Even the previously sarcastic Wang Luoqiu, along with Wang Luoqing, had a slightly pale face. They went up to help their two brothers apply medicine and bandage their wounds.

Although they usually mock each other, they are still family members who share the same blood. How can they not feel distressed when someone is injured?

At this moment, Wang Shouzhe finally turned his gaze to the scar-faced wandering cultivator. In a calm tone, he said, “Surrender, you have no chance.”

Scar-Faced Fifth’s face turned pale, and large beads of sweat dripped down his face. “Lord Wang, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have been influenced by the Liu Clan and Zhao Clan and done such despicable things for them. As long as you spare me, I will give you all the evidence and make sure the Liu Clan and Zhao Clan don’t get away with it.”

He also knew that there was a great grudge between the Wang Clan and the Liu Clan and Zhao Clan.

“It sounds tempting.” Wang Shouzhe’s face was cold, “Unfortunately, if I agree, how can I face my own conscience? There is only one way for you, surrender and confess, and I will give you a dignified death afterwards.”

“If you… if you don’t agree, don’t expect to get the evidence.” Scar-Faced Fifth threatened fiercely, “You will miss a great opportunity to deal with the Liu Clan and Zhao Clan.”

“It doesn’t matter. If I can find out the truth, I will. If I can’t, so be it.” Wang Shouzhe said lightly, “Your little bit of evidence is unnecessary. The Liu Clan and Zhao Clan can’t be brought down by it.”

“You!” Scar-Faced Fifth gradually became ferocious, like a trapped beast, “Fine, fine, you forced me, I’ll fight you!” With his only way out blocked by Wang Shouzhe, he resolutely took out a pill and swallowed it.

In an instant.

His face turned red, his eyes filled with a cruel and bloody aura, and his body was surrounded by surging Qi, as if even his body had grown larger.

“Fourth Brother, be careful, that’s the Rampage Pill. It is said that it allows you to fight beyond your level.” Wang Luoqing anxiously took out her bug flute.

Even Wang Luoqiu’s face changed, “How despicable, he actually swallowed the Rampage Pill. Fourth Brother, let’s fight him together.”

“No need. This person is too dangerous, you can’t handle him. Step back.” Wang Shouzhe drew his sword and walked towards the wandering cultivator, casually explaining to them, “Today was originally meant for everyone to train together, so it’s a good opportunity to remember not to underestimate any enemy. They may have some means to save their lives.”

“Yes, Fourth Brother.” “Yes, Fourth Brother.” “Wang, Fourth Brother, be careful.”

Even Wang Luoqiu could see that the person was too dangerous and worried for Wang Shouzhe.

“Roar!”

The scar-faced wandering cultivator’s eyes were filled with a cruel and bloody aura as he swung his large knife towards Wang Shouzhe, his Qi surging and his blade exuding a powerful and sharp aura, as if he wanted to cut down the entire warehouse with one strike.

Wang Shouzhe’s expression remained unchanged as he casually pointed his sword, lightning fast, at the side of the incoming strike.

“Clang!”

The sound of metal clashing echoed as the violent knife technique was completely blocked. The blade couldn’t withstand the force and was forced back, and the scar-faced wandering cultivator, with his swollen body, seemed to have been punched, stumbling back a few steps.

“How is this possible!” The scar-faced wandering cultivator was shocked by the remaining trace of reason. He was confident that even if he couldn’t injure the person, he could at least force him back.

“Sigh!”

Wang Shouzhe sighed lightly, “You underestimated the foundation of our Wang Clan and underestimated me, Wang Shouzhe. With just a Rampage Pill, you want to fight me to the death? Hehe~”

After a light laugh, Wang Shouzhe’s figure floated towards him like smoke, with extremely fast speed and unpredictable movements.

A sword strike.

A heavy white sword light turned into a thunderbolt and slashed towards the scar-faced wandering cultivator’s head.

“Willow Fluff Body Technique.”

“Wang Clan’s Xuan Yuan Sword Technique.”

Wang Luoqing and Wang Luoqiu almost simultaneously exclaimed. These were the ancestral heritage of the Wang Clan, middle-grade body technique and middle-grade sword technique.

They had witnessed Wang Shouzhe’s Willow Fluff Body Technique before, which was elusive and unpredictable, making it impossible to touch even the hem of his clothes. But this was the first time they had seen their Fourth Brother use the ancestral secret technique, the “Xuan Yuan Sword Technique”.

“Clang!”

The scar-faced wandering cultivator barely blocked the attack, but blood spurted from his mouth as he was forced back. But before he could catch his breath, an even more powerful second strike followed.

Block again…

Third strike!

“Clang!” In the sound of the clash of the sword and the bell, the scar-faced wandering cultivator’s knife shattered into two pieces, and the force of the impact sent him flying, spitting blood on the ground and unable to get up.

“Ugh!”

The four younger siblings were stunned to see Wang Shouzhe fighting seriously for the first time, and they were all dumbfounded. Then, one by one, their faces turned red with excitement. Fourth Brother was so strong, indeed!

“This is our Wang Clan’s Xuan Yuan Jue, combined with the power of the Xuan Yuan Sword Technique.” Wang Shouzhe landed gracefully, as if he had done something insignificant, smiling as he explained to them, “The power is ordinary in the early stages, but as the Xuan Yuan Jue becomes more profound, the power becomes more profound as well. You should cultivate the Xuan Yuan Jue well. The more advanced it gets, the more powerful it becomes.”

“Yes, Fourth Brother.”

Even Wang Luoqiu blushed and nodded repeatedly, excitedly admiring Wang Shouzhe.
