Protect Our Patriarch-Chapter 57Book 6: : Overnight wealth! Shou Zhe gains unexpected fortune

……

At the same time, within the Returning to Origin Immortal Mansion.

The excited Spirit Artifact of the "Returning to Origin Immortal Spirit Technique," Yuan Yuan, nestled in Jiang Muxian's arms for quite a while before reluctantly remembering the important matter at hand.

Besides itself, there was a whole heap of things in the cave that needed to be inherited~

"Spirit Artifact of the cave, wake up." Yuan Yuan immediately shouted within the courtyard, "Our new master has arrived, and you're still sleeping?"

"Stop shouting~ Yuan Yuan, you know I've shut down a lot of unnecessary formations and Immortal Talisman functions to save energy. Give me a moment, and I'll be fully activated soon."

As soon as Yuan Yuan's voice fell, another young girl's voice came from within the courtyard.

The voice was slow and lazy, as if just waking up, contrasting sharply with the energetic Yuan Yuan.

However, as she spoke, the girl's voice gradually became clear and strong.

Soon, a female Spirit Artifact in a padded skirt appeared above the stone tablet.

She looked very young, with a dignified and elegant demeanor, clearly someone with a serious and stern personality.

Her gaze swept over Jiang Muxian and Wang Shouzhe, then landed on Jiang Muxian, who was already connected to the aura of the "Returning to Origin Immortal Spirit Technique," and she bowed respectfully, "Welcome, young master. I am the housekeeper Spirit Artifact of this cave mansion, [Tutu]."

"Wait a minute." Jiang Muxian quickly retreated behind Wang Shouzhe, solemnly reminding, "I'm not your master; our young master is."

"But... according to the rules of our Returning to Origin Sect, only those who inherit the 'Returning to Origin Immortal Spirit Technique' are the young masters of the cave mansion. Once you achieve True Immortal status, you will automatically become the true master of our cave mansion," explained the housekeeper Spirit Artifact Tutu.

"That's the rule of the Returning to Origin Sect, not my rule," Jiang Muxian firmly and calmly stated, "Since you call me young master, shouldn't you listen to me? From today, I hand over this cave mansion, including everything in it, to this young master Wang Shouzhe."

Inheriting the Immortal Scripture was already a great fortune for Jiang Muxian. She owed everything to the young master, and how could she covet this Immortal's cave mansion?

"Alright." The housekeeper Spirit Artifact Tutu hesitated for a moment, then turned to Wang Shouzhe, bowed, and said solemnly, "From today, the Returning to Origin Immortal Mansion belongs to the young master."

Wang Shouzhe didn't show much emotion, but he nodded silently.

Jiang Muxian and the Jiang Clan were people who knew gratitude, making his efforts to support them worthwhile.

He didn't decline and directly said, "Let's open the treasury and take a look."

"Yes, young master."

Spirit Artifact Tutu responded, then waved her hand, opening a small energy passage, and respectfully said, "Young master, the Immortal Mansion's treasury is located at the deepest part of the small cave, accessible only through the spatial passage."

Wang Shouzhe and Jiang Muxian followed the passage and found themselves inside the treasury.

The treasury wasn't huge, but the chests of spiritual stones were piled high. Wang Shouzhe casually opened one of the chests and found it full of top-grade spiritual stones, numbering in the thousands.

"Young master, the treasury stores two thousand chests of top-grade spiritual stones, totaling two million top-grade spiritual stones," Spirit Artifact Tutu reported.

"..." Wang Shouzhe couldn't help but smile. This was an astronomical amount of spiritual stones, roughly equivalent to two hundred Immortal Spirit Stones, or about two Chaos Spirit Stones.

Who would have thought that the Returning to Origin Immortal Mansion would be so wealthy? And this was just the stock of top-grade spiritual stones; there were still top-grade spiritual stones, Immortal Spirit Stones, and more!

"Tutu, why is there such a wealth of resources in the treasury?" Wang Shouzhe asked, slightly puzzled.

"Although our Returning to Origin Sect isn't a top-tier sect, it's still a prestigious one within the Lingxiao Star Sea, with a Great Golden Immortal overseeing it. However, during the World-Ending War, our Golden Immortal Ancestor unfortunately fell, and many True Immortal elders perished. To prevent the sect from being completely destroyed, the young sect master had no choice but to order the remaining True Immortal elders to urgently gather some resources and then bring them to this Returning to Origin Sect's Courtyard in the wilderness star sea, sealing them all here, hoping that future generations could inherit the Returning to Origin legacy and rebuild the sect," explained Spirit Artifact Tutu.

Wang Shouzhe suddenly understood.

It turned out that this was a legacy left by an ancient sect, intended for successors to rise again, which explained the vast resources stored here.

Moreover, only an ancient sect would refer to a "Da Luo Holy Sovereign" as a "Great Golden Immortal."

As for the Lingxiao Star Sea...

When he first arrived in the Holy Domain, he might not have known what it referred to, but now he knew that the Lingxiao Star Sea was what is now called the Domain of Destruction.

Clearly, the World-Ending War mentioned by Spirit Artifact Tutu was the reason the Domain of Destruction became what it is today.

However, Wang Shouzhe didn't delve into the past at this moment but continued to inspect the storeroom, asking, "How many top-grade spiritual stones are in stock?"

"Reporting to the young master, we have eighteen chests of top-grade spiritual stones, totaling eighteen thousand pieces. Additionally, there are one hundred and ninety-eight Immortal Spirit Stones and two Chaos Spirit Stones."

The more Wang Shouzhe heard, the more satisfied he became, nodding, "This is indeed a considerable fortune."

Just the spiritual stones alone were worth about eight Chaos Spirit Stones, slightly less.

However, he wasn't overly excited, as this amount of Chaos Spirit Stones was still far from enough to purchase [Lu Xiaoyi].

"What about Chaos Essence and Chaos Origin?" Wang Shouzhe asked again.

"We have a large jar of Chaos Essence, but Chaos Origin is too rare and was heavily consumed before the decisive battle, leaving only a wisp," Spirit Artifact Tutu reported honestly.

A wisp?

Wang Shouzhe immediately checked the ancient jade bottle containing the Chaos Origin. The wisp of dark golden Chaos Origin aura inside was about the thickness of a chopstick, enough to be divided into ten to twenty strands.

As for the large jar of Chaos Essence, it was quite substantial.

Wang Shouzhe roughly estimated that it could be divided into five large bottles or fifty small bottles.

This was another significant fortune, and a very practical one at that.

Chaos Essence wasn't just for enhancing the bloodline potential of spirit plants and spiritual beasts. The Holy Emperor of Shenwu had once diluted Chaos Essence and mixed it with various treasures to create different grades of [Bloodline Qualification Improvement Liquid].

It was thanks to these Bloodline Qualification Improvement Liquids that the Shenwu Royal Dynasty was able to cultivate a large number of talents in a short time, turning the tide in what seemed like a desperate situation and achieving many miraculous feats that seemed impossible today.

Unfortunately, in the end, it was all for naught.

And the Wang Clan, along the way, had also greatly benefited from the Bloodline Qualification Improvement Liquid. Therefore, the Wang Clan's research institute had been diligently studying the "Bloodline Qualification Improvement Liquid," trying to recreate its technology.

However, as they delved into historical records and conducted thorough investigations, supplementing with additional information, the researchers discovered that the technology for the Bloodline Qualification Improvement Liquid wasn't entirely invented by the Holy Emperor of Shenwu. Instead, it was something he excavated and restored from relics.

And all the clues pointed to the "Crystal Ancient Clan" that had attacked the Lingxiao Star Sea.

The Holy Emperor of Shenwu had obtained some relics of the Crystal Ancient Clan while exploring the Domain of Destruction and excavating relics, which allowed the Shenwu Royal Dynasty to rise rapidly.

If it weren't for the subsequent invasion of the Demon Realm, causing a severe civilization break, the Shenwu World might have been far more advanced than the Tianrui Holy Dynasty today.

"Spirit Artifact Tutu, are there any seeds of spiritual rice and spirit plants stored in the treasury?" Wang Shouzhe asked about a crucial need.

"There are some sixth-grade spiritual grain seeds and two types of seventh-grade spiritual grain seeds," Spirit Artifact Tutu pointed Wang Shouzhe to a location and introduced, "These two types of seventh-grade spiritual grains are called [Linglong Hundred Fragrance Rice] and [Yuliang Spring Rice], both highly popular spiritual rice. Linglong Hundred Fragrance Rice, when cooked, is crystal clear, fragrant, and has an excellent taste. Yuliang Spring Rice, although not as tasty as Linglong Hundred Fragrance Rice, is very suitable for brewing Immortal brew and is highly popular within the sect."

Following Spirit Artifact Tutu's instructions, Wang Shouzhe found a jade box wrapped in layers of inscriptions. He opened the jade box and took out two jade caskets from the pile inside.

These jade caskets were different from the ones used for storing spiritual herbs; they seemed much more high-end. Even the inscriptions on the jade caskets were intricate and complex, making each jade casket look quite valuable.

He casually opened the jade casket labeled [Linglong Hundred Fragrance Rice] and found it half-filled with rice grains the size of fingernails. There weren't many, but each grain was plump, and through the rough husk, one could feel the abundant spiritual energy and vitality within.

Clearly, these rice seeds were well-preserved. He gently sniffed them and could even detect a sweet fragrance, like a blend of various floral and fruity scents, fresh and elegant, refreshing the mind.

This fragrance was indeed memorable, no wonder it was called "Hundred Fragrance" Rice.

Wang Shouzhe keenly noticed a jade slip inside the jade casket.

Jade slips were typically used for recording information. He picked it up and glanced at it, discovering that it contained detailed information on the cultivation techniques, breeding techniques, and pest control methods for Linglong Hundred Fragrance Rice. It even included seed sterilization techniques, providing comprehensive instructions for direct planting.

The ancestors of the Returning to Origin Sect had truly thought of everything.

Wang Shouzhe then opened the other jade casket labeled [Yuliang Spring Rice], which also contained half a casket of spiritual seeds, the only difference being the appearance of the seeds.

Unlike the long oval shape of Linglong Hundred Fragrance Rice, Yuliang Spring Rice was round, with a slightly reddish husk and a surface that was slightly uneven, resembling the colors of spring clouds.

The jade casket also contained a matching jade slip with detailed records of the cultivation techniques for Yuliang Spring Rice.

After carefully storing the two jade caskets, Wang Shouzhe was very satisfied.

Currently, the Shenwu World was most lacking in seventh-grade spiritual grain seeds, and the two newly acquired seventh-grade spiritual grain seeds were just as valuable as the Tianrui Holy Dynasty's seventh-grade spiritual rice, [Heavenly Fat Fragrance].

Next, he just needed to cultivate these seventh-grade spiritual rice varieties, and the Wang Clan would have two more flagship products in the future.

Don't underestimate these spiritual seeds. For a family to truly develop long-term stability, it needs a continuous and steady stream of long-term income, rather than relying on sudden windfalls.

And in that jade box, besides the two types of seventh-grade spiritual rice, there were also some sixth-grade and fifth-grade spiritual rice seeds.

All the spiritual seeds, regardless of grade, were meticulously preserved in dedicated jade caskets to ensure that even after tens of thousands or millions of years, they would still be viable for planting. To facilitate differentiation, each jade casket was labeled accordingly.

With a casual glance, Wang Shouzhe felt as if he were looking at a seed gene bank.

The ancestors of the Returning to Origin Sect had truly put in a lot of effort.

"In addition to spiritual rice seeds, there are also some spiritual herb seeds, with fifteen types of spiritual herbs below the tenth grade, three types of tenth-grade spiritual herb seeds, and one type of eleventh-grade spiritual herb seed," the Spirit Artifact began introducing the spiritual herb seeds.

The spiritual herbs below the tenth grade were not worth mentioning, but the seeds of the three tenth-grade spiritual herbs, [Qingxia Immortal Ginseng], [Silver Leaf Immortal Orchid], and [Red Gold Immortal Spirit Fruit Tree], were extremely rare and greatly enriched the Wang Clan's collection of high-grade spiritual herbs.

Although the family already had two types of tenth-grade spiritual herbs, who wouldn't want more?

In addition, the eleventh-grade spiritual plant seed, [Five-Colored Spirit Tree], was an unexpected delight for Wang Shouzhe.

This [Five-Colored Spirit Tree] produced spiritual fruits known as [Five-Colored Spirit Fruits], which were the main ingredient for refining the eleventh-grade [Manifestation Pill], extremely precious and rare. Due to the difficulty in cultivation, besides the Dao Palace, only some of the more powerful cave heavens and Holy Clan families in the Dongxia Divine Continent had the means to cultivate it.

Of course, cultivation difficulties were for others. With Wang Shouzhe's life origin power and the Life Tree as his life-bound celestial plant, no spiritual plant was too difficult for him to cultivate.

He had long wanted to get a Five-Colored Spirit Tree to plant.

However, for any family, a spiritual plant of this grade was a significant foundation, not something he could buy even with money. Despite spending so much time in the Holy Domain, he hadn't found a single opportunity.

He never expected that such a spiritual plant seed would be preserved in this Immortal's cave mansion!

This was truly an unexpected joy!

With this, Wang Shouzhe was thoroughly satisfied.

"Young master, our treasury also contains a section of [Taiyi Golden Thunder Bamboo] Immortal Spirit Bamboo Rhizome." Tutu once again invited Wang Shouzhe to another jade casket, "This Taiyi Golden Thunder Bamboo is an innate variant with the potential to become a fourteenth-grade celestial plant. In the past, our Returning to Origin Sect had a bamboo grove of Taiyi Golden Thunder Bamboo, and even a Great Golden Immortal trapped in the grove would find it difficult to escape without shedding a layer of skin."

"Fourteenth-grade celestial plant?" Wang Shouzhe's eyes lit up, and he immediately reached out to open the jade casket.

Inside the jade casket was a small section of azure-gold bamboo rhizome. The rhizome was only as thick as a thumb, with a faint metallic sheen on its surface, and occasionally, blue-purple electric light would flow over it, looking quite mystical.

The bamboo rhizome was clearly well-preserved, and despite the passage of countless years, it still exuded a vigorous aura, with a faint immortal spirit energy emanating from it.

This Taiyi Golden Thunder Bamboo not only had strong potential but was also a rare thunder attribute. Once cultivated and grown, its attack power would be formidable, and it could serve as a formation eye like Li Xian, guarding the family and protecting future generations.

With it, the Wang Clan could be said to have gained another powerful foundation.

But this wasn't the end of their gains.

In addition to these spiritual seeds, the treasury also contained about several hundred high-quality Divine Spirit Artifacts, thirty-six Dao Artifacts and Semi-Immortal Artifacts, and two Immortal Artifacts.

The two Immortal Artifacts were the [Returning to Origin Immortal Shield] and the [Jade Immortal Sword].

Naturally, Wang Shouzhe gave the Jade Immortal Sword to Jiang Muxian, earning her heartfelt gratitude. As for the Returning to Origin Immortal Shield, Jiang Muxian refused to take it, insisting on giving it to Wang Shouzhe.

After some thought, Wang Shouzhe didn't decline further and readily accepted the Returning to Origin Immortal Shield.

Currently, among the three shields he commonly used, two were Semi-Immortal Artifacts, and the other, the [Heaven-Shaking Shield], was a Dao Artifact, which was starting to fall behind.

He was now playing the role of a top-tier noble young master from a mysterious family, and it would be unreasonable not to have an Immortal Shield by his side.

After taking stock, the gains could only be described as enormous, and even with Wang Shouzhe's wealth, he felt quite satisfied with the harvest.

At the same time, Wang Shouzhe was grateful that he hadn't stood by idly but had chosen to "invest and support" the maid Jiang Muxian in competing for this "Immortal's Cave Mansion Relic."

Even the two Holy Clans thought this Immortal's cave mansion was just an ordinary Immortal Mansion, with the most they could covet being an Immortal Scripture and one or two Immortal Artifacts.

If they had known the details, this matter would not have been resolved so easily.

Fortunately, Wang Shouzhe, as a precaution, had habitually left a backup plan to keep Yunpeng Holy Sovereign outside, otherwise, it might have aroused Yunpeng Holy Sovereign's envy and caused unnecessary trouble.

After organizing the gains, Wang Shouzhe chatted with the Spirit Artifact about history for a while before leaving the [Returning to Origin Immortal Mansion] with Jiang Muxian.

As soon as they exited, Yunpeng Holy Sovereign eagerly approached, looking unsatisfied, and said, "Shouzhe, Shouzhe, what did you find in the Immortal Mansion? Did you get the Immortal Scripture and Immortal Artifacts?"

Not being part of the treasure hunt process had left Yunpeng Holy Sovereign quite frustrated. Qingyuan Holy Son and Years Saintess also approached with curious expressions.

"Senior, do you know what 'not flaunting wealth' means?" Wang Shouzhe said irritably, "How about you let me inventory the assets of [Heavenly Peng Sacred Island]?"

"Sure~ If you're willing to visit Heavenly Peng Sacred Island, I'll open the treasury for you to play with~~" Yunpeng Holy Sovereign said cheerfully, "As long as you're willing to be my disciple, the entire Heavenly Peng Sacred Island will be yours in the future."

Wang Shouzhe's expression froze. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Why aren't you playing by the rules? Do you have to be so generous?

He immediately waved his hand, "Forget it, I'm not interested. Even if I inherit Heavenly Peng Sacred Island, I'll still have to pass it on to the next generation of disciples after working for the Primordial Dao Palace for a lifetime, won't I?"

"Shouzhe, you can't say it like that." Yunpeng Holy Sovereign "criticized," "As a noble young master from a family, your awareness is a bit low. Each Sacred Island of our Primordial Dao Palace carries the great responsibility of protecting the safety of the human race, which is an honorable mission."

Wang Shouzhe's expression turned solemn, and he cupped his hands, "Senior is noble, it's my lack of perspective."

"No worries, you're still young." Yunpeng Holy Sovereign waved his hand nonchalantly and smiled, "Some things you'll understand when you grow up. For now, the safety of the human race doesn't need to be borne by a child like you. Just enjoy being a carefree playboy for now, at least until you reach the True Immortal Realm before considering these things."

"……"

Wang Shouzhe was speechless.

He had lived for over four hundred years and was already a patriarch in the Shenwu World, bearing a lot of responsibility. But in the Holy Domain, he was always treated as a "child," which was indeed a peculiar experience.

However, it made sense. To a Holy Sovereign who could live for thirty-six thousand years, a few hundred years was still just a child~

"Yunpeng Senior, I have another important matter to trouble you with," Wang Shouzhe remembered something crucial and said, "This Immortal's cave mansion isn't safe in the outer chaotic sea. I need to trouble you to use your major divine abilities to move it back to Tianrui Holy City."

"……"

Yunpeng Holy Sovereign glared at Wang Shouzhe.

"Brat, do you think I'm a Holy Sovereign with nothing better to do? Moving such an Immortal's cave mansion to the Holy City would take me at least one or two months and a lot of effort."

"Doesn't the Jiang Clan have an Immortal Lord Haoran? He listens to you, let him move it slowly. It might take ten or eight years, but he'll get it back. I, a dignified Holy Sovereign, won't do such laborious work; it's too degrading."

Ten or eight years?

Wang Shouzhe rolled his eyes inwardly.

Do you think my time is worthless?

Once he completed this wave, it would be about time to end his Holy Domain journey and return to his family.

"Saintess of Shuiyue," Wang Shouzhe turned and said, "I'll offer ten Immortal Spirit Stones. Would you trouble your master to lend a hand?"

"Ten Immortal Spirit Stones?"

Both Qingyuan Holy Son and Yunpeng Holy Sovereign were taken aback.

Saintess of Shuiyue's eyes lit up, and she swallowed, "There's no need to trouble my master for that, I'll handle it. I'll risk my life to get it back in two or three years."

"Wait!" Yunpeng Holy Sovereign immediately stopped her, "Two or three years is too long; Shouzhe can't wait that long. Since I have such a good rapport with Shouzhe, I can help with this little favor."

"Yunpeng Senior..." Wang Shouzhe was taken aback, "Didn't you say you wouldn't do such laborious work? That it was degrading?"

"You didn't mention giving ten Immortal Spirit Stones," Yunpeng Holy Sovereign rolled his eyes, not feeling ashamed at all, "It's just a month or two of work; I'll definitely help with this favor."

"Nine, just nine Immortal Spirit Stones, and I'll immediately call my master," Saintess of Shuiyue quickly offered to undercut.

She had already calculated that once the task was completed, she would keep four of the Immortal Spirit Stones and give five to her master! Her master would surely be pleased.

Qingyuan Holy Son, on the other hand, wanted to take on this job, but his master wasn't in the cave, so he wasn't qualified to take the job.

"Saintess of Shuiyue, you're not being fair," Yunpeng Holy Sovereign was displeased, "This job was given to me by Shouzhe, how can you undercut?"

"Senior, you refused because you thought it was degrading, so Shouzhe came to me," Saintess of Shuiyue blinked innocently.

"Shouzhe, considering our friendship, I'll take eight! Eight Immortal Spirit Stones, and I'll do it!"

"Seven, just seven Immortal Spirit Stones..." Saintess of Shuiyue said, and then she simply crushed a communication jade talisman, "Shouzhe, wait a moment, I've already called my master."

"Is it really necessary..." Wang Shouzhe slapped his forehead, "It's just a few Immortal Spirit Stones, why fight over them?"

A few Immortal Spirit Stones? Just?

Yunpeng Holy Sovereign glared at Wang Shouzhe, "You rich kids really don't know the value of money. Do you know how many Immortal Spirit Stones I personally own? Not counting the public assets of Heavenly Peng Sacred Island, my entire personal wealth is less than nine Chaos Spirit Stones. Do you know how many years I've saved for this little bit of private wealth? Many Holy Sovereigns, let alone saving money, are still struggling to make ends meet at my age!"

"Six, six Immortal Spirit Stones, and I'll do it!"

The cost of cultivation was enormous, especially at the level of a Da Luo Holy Sovereign. Just maintaining one's cultivation each year required an astronomical amount, making it truly difficult to save money.

"Exactly, exactly, spending a month or two to earn ten Immortal Spirit Stones, wouldn't the annual income be close to a Chaos Spirit Stone?" Saintess of Shuiyue also retorted, "Let alone a Holy Sovereign, even a Dao Master doesn't make money this quickly. Just wait a few days, my master will arrive soon, and we'll only need five Immortal Spirit Stones."

She decided to keep two for herself and leave three for her master...

"Alright, alright, you two stop arguing." Wang Shouzhe waved his hand impatiently, "You're making me feel embarrassed. How about this, ten Immortal Spirit Stones each, both of you work together, and try to get the Returning to Origin Immortal Mansion back in half a month."

"Boss is generous!"

Saintess of Shuiyue and Yunpeng Holy Sovereign were overjoyed, praising Shouzhe's generosity.

Wang Shouzhe wasn't foolish; once something was done once, it could be done again. With this work experience, if he ever needed Yunpeng Holy Sovereign and Saintess of Shuiyue to do something in the future, they would surely come running.

Moreover, this was a way to "hold onto a big thigh." With two Holy Sovereigns accompanying him to the Holy City, his status would be elevated, and once the news spread, this invisible power would deter many "ill-intentioned" individuals.

However, while Saintess of Shuiyue and Yunpeng Holy Sovereign were happy, Qingyuan Holy Son's expression was one of silent lament.

Poor him, with his master not at home, he could only watch helplessly, unable to share in the spoils.

If his master found out about this, he would probably regret it to death.

"Your Highness the Holy Son, please lend a hand as well." Wang Shouzhe generously offered five Immortal Spirit Stones.

"……" Qingyuan Holy Son's gloom instantly lifted, and he was overjoyed, "Boss is generous."

With the matter settled, Wang Shouzhe boarded the Heavenly Void Cloud Boat and headed straight for Tianrui Holy City.

In just over twenty days.

Wang Shouzhe's Heavenly Void Cloud Boat arrived at the Jiang Clan's Immortal Mansion in the Holy City.

Since it wouldn't be long before the "moving company" led by Yunpeng Holy Sovereign delivered the Returning to Origin Immortal Mansion, he needed to determine its placement before it arrived.

Unexpectedly.

As soon as Wang Shouzhe disembarked from the Heavenly Void Cloud Boat.

Jiang Clan's head, Jiang Jianmu, rushed over anxiously, holding a beautifully crafted magazine in his hand, "Young Master Shouzhe, something terrible has happened. Your affair with Princess Qingyang has been completely exposed."

"What? What affair?"

Wang Shouzhe was utterly baffled.

When did he have an affair with Princess Qingyang? Wait, Qingyang has been elevated to princess status? That was fast!

"Young master, we're all on the same side, no need to hide it anymore." Jiang Jianmu was both anxious and full of admiration, "Your methods are truly extraordinary, to have won over Princess Qingyang so quickly... However, this matter has now spread throughout Tianrui Holy City, and even the Holy Emperor is reportedly furious, with the East Sea Immortal King threatening to come to the Holy City to beat you up."

"Perhaps you should lay low for a while? Oh, and here's the magazine, with pictures and evidence."

Magazine?

Wang Shouzhe's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately took the magazine for a look.

On the cover of the magazine was a large photo of Wang Shouzhe standing tall, seemingly "bullying" Princess Qingyang, who appeared aggrieved and tearful.

The angle was perfect!

Anyone who saw it would think Wang Shouzhe was bullying Princess Qingyang.

The photo was accompanied by a caption: "How the Overbearing Young Master Conquered the Naive Princess? Read 'The Untold Secrets of Tianrui's Big Shots' for a detailed serial explanation~~"

This familiar photo style, this familiar phrasing...

"……"

The veins on Wang Shouzhe's forehead began to throb.

"Where is that scoundrel Wang Baoguang? Bring him to see me!"
