Protect Our Patriarch-Chapter 65Book 5: : Rich and noble, An Ye departs for the immortal realm

……

The exam ended quickly this time.

The papers were uniformly graded by the advanced Spirit Artifact, Da Xue'er, capable of processing them in bulk in a very short time. The admission scores for each academy were directly announced on the public screen. Therefore, after finishing the exam, everyone did not leave but patiently waited in the examination hall, ready to receive their results.

After a round of statistics and verification, the results were distributed to each examinee.

Once outside, they could compare the scores of various academies to see if they had graduated or been admitted to any school.

The students who received their results exited in an orderly manner from each passage.

"Lici, Lici, I'm here!" Lan Wan'er jumped up and down, finding Wang Lici after the exam, and grabbed her arm with concern, "Sister, how did you do this time?"

"A total of 431!" Wang Lici said with a face full of frustration, "The college entrance exam questions get harder every year. I scored 460 in the mock exams."

"Let me see the graduation line."

Lan Wan'er tiptoed to look at the public screen, and after a few breaths, she exclaimed excitedly, "Lici, the graduation line this time is 429. Congratulations, you finally graduated!"

"Graduated?" Wang Lici felt dizzy, as if in a daze.

It was so, so difficult!

For so many years, she had been buried in a sea of questions day after day, numbed by the endless practice. Heaven knows how she endured these thirty years.

The most terrifying thing was that, except for the first few years, the college entrance exam got harder every year...

"Woo woo woo! We can finally sweep through the Immortal Dynasty again."

The two silly girls hugged each other in joy and wept with tears of happiness.

These decades had not been easy for Lan Wan'er either. She had also been studying at the Wang's Clan School, barely graduating five years earlier than Wang Lici.

This was a new rule established by the Wang's Clan long ago. Any Wang's Clan descendant had to at least graduate from the Wang's Clan middle school, or else they would continue to stay in the clan school.

Originally, Wang Lici's seniority was high, and this rule didn't apply to her at all. But Wang Shouzhe was so fond of this big niece that he couldn't help but want to keep her for a couple more years.

"Before we go to the Immortal Dynasty, let's visit Guilong City first." Wang Lici said excitedly, licking her lips, "Grandpa Heng has sent many letters, inviting me to White Cloud Tower as a guest, saying he has saved lots of delicious food for me."

"Okay, okay, let's go to White Cloud Tower first."

As soon as the two girls mentioned food, they immediately forgot all their worries.

"Huh? Little green snake, you came out too? How did you do?" At this moment, Lan Wan'er suddenly spotted the Green Dragon Ancestor with her sharp eyes.

It looked dejected and listless, as if it had lost its soul.

"Two hundred and fifty-nine..." The Green Dragon Ancestor gestured a series of numbers with its claws, tears almost falling.

The questions were too difficult. It had never been so miserable in its life.

With this score, let alone getting into a higher academy, it couldn't even pass the graduation line. It seemed it would have to stay in the Wang's Clan School for further study.

Wang Lici and Lan Wan'er looked at it with sympathy.

"Xian'er, how did you do this time?" Liu Ruolan, as a parent, had been waiting outside for a long time. As soon as she saw Wang Lixian come out, she immediately grabbed her precious daughter.

"Mother." The little green sapling happily jumped into Liu Ruolan's arms, so excited that even its branches were trembling, "I scored 435 this time."

"Four hundred and thirty-five? That's above the line." Liu Ruolan was overjoyed, "Good, good, as expected of my precious daughter. This time you finally graduated from the middle clan school. Now, your father's ban can be lifted. Let's go, Mother will take you to eat something delicious."

"Father is still in the exam hall." Wang Lixian held her mother's hand, full of excitement.

How many years had it been, how many years, she finally graduated from the clan school.

Meanwhile.

Inside the exam hall, Wang Shouzhe and Wang Fugui were looking at each other.

"Da Xue'er, how did Fugui do this time?" Wang Shouzhe asked casually, "What rank?"

"Reporting to the Master." Da Xue'er replied, "Young Master Fugui scored 729 points, ranking first overall."

"......"

Wang Shouzhe looked at Wang Fugui speechlessly, and after a long time, he said faintly, "Fugui, do you know about systems?"

"System? I know." Wang Fugui nodded.

"You have a system?" Wang Shouzhe's eyes lit up.

"Does Xue'er count?" Wang Fugui blinked, "I heard she's the family system established by Ancestor Grandfather."

"No, that's my... system." Wang Shouzhe's face twitched, "I'm asking if, after you gained consciousness, did any strange voice appear in your mind? The kind that gives you simple tasks and then casually helps you comprehend various skills and knowledge, quickly leading you to the pinnacle of life."

That's right, he suspected Wang Fugui might be cheating.

"Sounds interesting, no wonder Ancestor Grandfather wants one." Wang Fugui listened with longing, "But the clan school teacher said that to gain something, you must put in effort. I study every subject very hard."

You work hard?

Wang Shouzhe looked at his fifth-generation grandson faintly.

You're only ten years old and already ranked first in the college entrance exam. You say you study hard, how many people do you think would believe that?

"Have you ever recalled memories of a past life?" Wang Shouzhe asked again.

"Ancestor Grandfather thinks I might be a reincarnated True Immortal?" Wang Fugui shook his head, "Miss Yun suspected it before, but she and True Lord Yuling tested me, and I showed no signs of being a reincarnated True Immortal."

"By the way, Ancestor Grandfather, did you also take the exam this time?"

"The Master scored 720 points, ranking thirty-ninth." Da Xue'er quickly answered for Wang Shouzhe.

"That's amazing." Wang Fugui said with a face full of shock, "The clan school teachers said that the exam content is very difficult now, and the knowledge system is completely different from over a hundred years ago. Ancestor Grandfather, you're so busy usually, and you didn't even take any extra classes, yet you can..."

"The Master didn't completely skip extra classes. He recently helped Xian'er with her studies and organized the latest knowledge system." Da Xue'er quickly answered for Wang Shouzhe again.

"Shut up." Wang Shouzhe rarely got angry and said to the advanced Spirit Artifact Da Xue'er, "I'm talking to Fugui, don't interrupt."

"Ancestor Grandfather is actually very impressive." Wang Fugui comforted him, "According to the research data from our Wang's Research Institute, it shows that the older a person gets, the more rigid their thinking becomes, making it difficult to overturn their existing knowledge system and accept and digest new knowledge. Moreover, adults have many distractions, and after staying in their comfort zone for a long time, it's hard to settle down and study."

"For example, His Majesty and Holy Master Jiang are both three to four thousand years old. Give them a hundred years..."

"Alright, alright, I understand these principles. Your Ancestor Grandfather is only two hundred years old, still very young." Wang Shouzhe waved his hand speechlessly, stopping him from continuing.

This was not comforting at all.

How was he old? He was clearly still very young, wasn't he?

Wang Shouzhe quietly ground his teeth, looking at his little adult-like fifth-generation grandson, and suddenly said, "Recently, an ancestor of the Han Yue Wang's Clan has advanced to the Divine Realm. The Daqian Wang's Clan will go to congratulate them. You and Anye will represent the Changning Wang's Clan to offer congratulations."

Anye and Fugui were both direct descendants of the Wang's Clan, and according to the clan laws and regulations, they had the right of inheritance. Moreover, both of them had excellent qualifications and bloodlines, enough to represent the family wherever they went.

"Ancestor Grandfather, I'm still young, and I have to attend the higher clan school..." Wang Fugui said weakly.

"Learning too fast isn't necessarily a good thing, it can lead to an unstable foundation." Wang Shouzhe said, "Besides, you're still young, there's no need to study the higher clan school content too early. It's better to slow down and take a look at other aspects of life."

"Yes, Ancestor Grandfather."

……

Xinping Town.

In recent years, as the grain seeds of the Great Qian became increasingly popular in the Immortal Dynasty, trade between the Immortal Dynasty and the Great Qian became more frequent, with one or two trips each year in recent years.

And here in Xinping Town, as the Wang's Clan's external port and storage center, there was a very mature transportation system and material allocation system. No matter what kind of materials, they could be easily gathered here, and even if temporarily unavailable, it was convenient to transfer them from other places.

Yao's Air Transport's Yun Yao flying boat needed to transport goods to the Immortal Dynasty, and for convenience in loading and unloading, they naturally chose to dock here.

Due to the large size of the flying boat, it often occupied a large area when docking. For convenience, Yao's Clan simply bought a piece of land and built a flying boat landing site.

It was a huge, particularly spacious and flat square. The square was not far from the port, with a row of warehouses built on the side for temporary storage of materials, and beyond that were the transportation channels extending in all directions.

At this moment, there was only half a day left before the next departure, and the Yao's Clan members responsible for loading and unloading were directing their subordinates to load the last batch of goods into the flying boat's cargo hold.

A row of giant cargo boxes was neatly lined up under the flying boat.

With the help of mechanical arms, these cargo boxes were steadily hoisted onto the flying boat one by one, placed on the track, and then slid into the designated positions along the track.

Everyone present was obviously experienced, and the entire transportation process was orderly and seamless.

Under the flying boat, Yao Chengchao, the person in charge of the Yun Yao flying boat, was holding a list, confirming the goods on the list one by one.

Beside him stood several Yao's Clan members and managers, each holding a stack of account books, ready to respond to Yao Chengchao's inquiries and checks at any time.

The goods transported by the Yun Yao flying boat on each trip were massive, involving a considerable variety and quantity, making the verification a very tedious task.

As the person in charge, Yao Chengchao usually did not personally handle the procurement and transportation, instead delegating these tasks to various managers under him, each responsible for a part, while he only handled the final check.

Most of the people around him were already old hands under Yao Chengchao, familiar with his habits, and the cooperation between the two sides was smooth, quickly verifying more than half.

Suddenly.

Yao Chengchao frowned deeply at a string of numbers on the list, "Who is responsible for procuring this 'Wang's No. 108 Wheat Seed'?"

"It's, it's me." A young manager answered cautiously.

"What's with this procurement volume?" Yao Chengchao's tone was unfriendly, "Don't you know that Wang's cold-resistant wheat seed has been selling better and better in recent years, always out of stock? You procured so little, it's not even enough to fill the gaps between teeth."

The young manager was startled by his expression and quickly asked humbly, "Then, according to your instructions, how much more should we add?"

"At least increase the procurement volume by another twenty percent." Yao Chengchao said decisively.

"Twenty percent? That much?" The young manager was stunned, "Where can we get so much wheat seed all of a sudden when we're about to depart?"

"You don't know? Go to the familiar family businesses to borrow, if not enough, directly find Wang's Clan, you can use our... forget it~" He became a bit impatient as he spoke and casually pointed to a manager, giving an instruction.

"You handle this."

After speaking, he glared at the young man, "Stand aside and learn properly."

"Yes."

The clan member shrank his neck and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Heaven knows, he was sweating coldly just now. The aura of Uncle Grandfather was too strong, just standing here felt like a mountain of pressure, and when being reprimanded by Uncle Grandfather, he was so nervous that his heart almost jumped out.

As they were talking, the sky suddenly echoed with the sound of cranes.

A fleet of flying carriages slowly descended from the sky, stopping at the edge of the square where flying carriages were specifically parked.

These flying carriages had similar appearances, uniform specifications, all decorated simply and elegantly, with wooden plaques bearing the Wang's Clan emblem embedded on the carriage, they were the standard flying carriages of the Changning Wang's Clan.

"Alright~ hurry up and get the wheat seed."

Seeing this, Yao Chengchao immediately waved his hand to dismiss the managers, then turned to greet the flying carriages that had just landed.

In the blink of an eye, the carriage was already opened by the coachman respectfully, and one figure after another was getting off.

Leading them was a young gentleman with handsome features, elegant demeanor, and an aura like a banished immortal, it was none other than Wang Anye, the direct descendant of the Wang's Clan.

Seeing him, Yao Chengchao's previously angry face immediately filled with a smile, raising his hand in a salute, "Young Master Anye, long time no see. Your demeanor is more impressive with each passing day~"

"Senior Yao is too kind. On this trip to the Immortal Dynasty, I will have to trouble Senior Yao." Wang Anye returned the salute with a smile, and casually took out a bag of spirit rice from his storage ring and handed it to him, "This is the top-grade spirit rice that Great-Grandfather specifically asked me to bring you. It's not much, just a token of appreciation, please don't mind."

"I don't mind, I don't mind. This is top-grade spirit rice, I usually hesitate to buy it. Please thank Master Wang Shouzhe for me." Yao Chengchao happily accepted the spirit rice.

Both of them were now in the Purple Mansion Realm, and they had interacted many times over the years, so they were already familiar with each other, making their exchange naturally without much formality.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Yao Chengchao called over a few employees of Yao's Air Transport to lead the Wang's Clan members to the pre-arranged rooms on the flying boat.

This was something that had been agreed upon long ago, so it was naturally handled smoothly.

Those taking the Yun Yao flying boat to the Immortal Dynasty this time were mainly divided into three parts: one part was the Daqian Wang's Clan going to the Han Yue Immortal Dynasty to attend the Divine Feast and deliver congratulatory gifts.

This group mainly included several elders of the Daqian Wang's Clan led by Wang Zhouhui, as well as a few outstanding younger clan members. Wang Anye and Wang Fugui were also part of this group, representing the Changning Wang's Clan to deliver gifts.

Of course, besides delivering gifts, Wang Anye had another important task on this trip, which was to inherit the codex.

He was already in the Purple Mansion Realm, and if he didn't inherit the codex soon, his subsequent cultivation would fall behind.

In addition, there were Wang Lici, Lan Wan'er, Jiang Xingyuan, and a few others hitching a ride, each with different destinations.

Lan Wan'er was returning home to inherit the true law inheritance after recently breaking through to the Purple Mansion Realm. Wang Lici accompanied her, intending to find a way to get a chance at the true law inheritance in the sacred land of the Immortal Dynasty.

Additionally, there was Ji Yue'er, a newly recruited mid-Void Realm enshrined by the Wang's Clan.

In this world, every mid-Void Realm individual was a renowned figure, and under normal circumstances, it was impossible for an unknown mid-Void Realm expert to exist. However, Ji Yue'er's original identity was somewhat sensitive, so to avoid suspicion, it was best to have a reasonable new identity.

After careful consideration, Wang Shouzhe decided to give her a fake identity as a strong person from the Immortal Dynasty. He even contacted a Ji family in the Immortal Dynasty, preparing to have Ji Yue'er's name registered under their family, taking the place of a missing ancestor of theirs.

To make her identity appear more credible, he even had Wang Mei's subordinates specially compile a set of "personal information" for Ji Yue'er, detailing the relics she had visited and the experiences she had gone through over the years. Those who didn't know might believe it after reading the information.

Ji Yue'er was going to the Immortal Dynasty mainly to "acknowledge her ancestors and return to her clan," to show her face at the Ji family, meet the Ji family members and those mid-Void Realm bigwigs in the Immortal Dynasty, and solidify her fake identity as the "ancestor of the Ji family who wandered outside," making it official.

Once she returned from the Immortal Dynasty, she would be the "ancestor of the Ji family who wandered outside," and the Wang's Clan could officially hire her as an enshrined.

In comparison, the fake identities of the Red Enchantress Demon Envoy and the Yulian Demon Envoy were much simpler.

Jiang Xingyuan, who came to the Great Qian with Gongyang Ce, was from a first-class family in the Immortal Dynasty.

Wang Shouzhe just greeted him, took out a few immortal rice, and he agreed to help. By then, they would be directly registered under their family, claiming to be direct ancestors of their family.

After all, their family had many Divine Realm members, and occasionally having clan members advance to the Divine Realm, adding two more wouldn't attract much attention.

Additionally, there were some accompanying family guards and clan members purely going to broaden their horizons.

In the next half day, everyone going to the Immortal Dynasty gradually arrived, and the batch of wheat seeds Yao Chengchao requested was also urgently transported by Yao's Clan.

Everything was ready.

By evening, the Yun Yao flying boat slowly ascended, flapping its blue wings towards the Immortal Dynasty.

……

At the same time as Wang Anye and others set off for the Immortal Dynasty.

In the vast and prosperous Han Yue Immortal Capital, there was a grand and ancient Wang Mansion named [Northern Territory Wang Mansion].

This was a mansion passed down through generations in the Immortal Dynasty, said to have been inherited for five generations, an old mansion in the Immortal Dynasty.

The mansion was extremely vast, with mountains, water, and lakes inside, many top-grade spiritual veins sealed underground, and a large Gathering Spirit Array. After years of accumulating spiritual energy, it had long become a top-notch blessed land.

The current Northern Territory King was over three thousand years old.

The "quasi-king competition" within the mansion had already concluded in previous years. Among the best, the new generation Northern Territory King heir was unsurprisingly the famous noble young master of the Immortal Dynasty, [Yun Lixuan].

Yun Lixuan became famous at a young age, one of the outstanding figures among the younger generation of the Northern Territory Wang Mansion, and was married to the little princess of the Liang Kingdom, one of the pillars of the human race, Princess Mingzhu, by the Northern Territory King's personal matchmaking.

However, these were not Yun Lixuan's most famous achievements. What truly made him famous throughout the Immortal Dynasty was the birth of an exceptionally talented daughter thirty years after marrying Princess Jiang Yiyi of the Liang Kingdom.

It was said that when Jiang Yiyi was pregnant with this daughter, she often dreamed of the scene of a mysterious True Immortal breaking through the void and ascending, so she named her daughter "Yun Mengyu."

According to the rules of the Immortal Dynasty, any Yun family bloodline female descendant who, after estimation, has the potential to reach the level of a Peerless Prodigy Class B (Innate Spiritual Body Class B) after inheriting the codex and receiving the baptism, would enter the sequence of the Immortal Emperor's heirs and be conferred as a "Princess" of the Han Yue Immortal Dynasty.

Although Yun Mengyu was currently only a Peerless Prodigy Class D, in the future, during her growth, her bloodline could still be enhanced with a series of treasures and spiritual pills.

Although these methods had limited effects on her bloodline due to her high innate bloodline, theoretically, she could still meet the requirements of an Immortal Emperor heir.

However, Yun Mengyu was born at an inopportune time, making it very difficult for her to surpass the previous "Immortal Dynasty Princess sisters." But even so, she was still a legitimate little princess of the Immortal Dynasty, and even if she couldn't compete for the True Immortal or become the Immortal Emperor, she had a high probability of achieving mid-to-late Void Realm in the future.

If she had enough opportunities, she might even forge her own path to becoming a True Immortal.

Therefore, the entire Northern Territory Wang Mansion's status was elevated by half a level due to Yun Mengyu, and her father Yun Lixuan and mother Jiang Yiyi's status also rose significantly.

Logically, the mansion heir Yun Lixuan and Princess Jiang Yiyi of the Liang Kingdom should have lived a happy life.

However, the reality was quite different.

In the picturesque and vast inner courtyard, Jiang Yiyi and Yun Lixuan, the couple, were fighting. Both had their Dharma Aspect shadows up, wielding Divine Spirit Artifacts, and the energy clashes caused a rumbling vibration.

"Yun Lixuan, you're truly a beast in human clothing. I never expected you to be such a beast, even daring to covet my family's ancestor." Jiang Yiyi, in a fit of rage, even wielded her Divine Spirit Artifact to bombard Yun Lixuan wildly.

"Jiang Yiyi, I warn you not to go crazy! This is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!" Yun Lixuan dodged in embarrassment.

Although he had inherited the mansion's codex, he had only recently done so, and like Jiang Yiyi, he was still in the Purple Mansion Realm.

Moreover, in this situation, he didn't dare to fight back and could only defend himself awkwardly.

While the couple was fighting fiercely.

Three figures floated in the sky, one of them was the stern-faced Northern Territory King, another was the rising star of the Immortal Palace, True Lord Yuling Jiang Yuling.

The last one was a little girl just over ten years old, Yun Mengyu.

At this moment, she was being held by True Lord Yuling, floating beside her, supported by a white glow.

Yun Mengyu's eyes widened in surprise, "I didn't expect father to like Sister Yuling, the age gap is a bit big, the taste..."

"Shut up!" True Lord Yuling glared at her with pretty eyes, "After going to East Qian, what nonsense have you learned from Wang Fugui?" ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

"What do you mean I'm old? I'm only over sixteen hundred years old and already in the mid-Void Realm, so beautiful, so talented, and with the identity of a reincarnated True Immortal, it's normal to have some admirers."

"Does Sister Yuling also like my father? Want to be my little mother?" Yun Mengyu blinked curiously.

"Cough cough!"

Hearing this, the Northern Territory King, who looked a bit old but had an extraordinary aura, twitched his face, almost unable to maintain his expression.

He coughed twice and said, "Mengyu, don't talk nonsense. Also, don't call her sister, call her True Lord Yuling or Ancestor Yuling. She is one of the ancestors of your mother's clan."

"No problem, sister is fine, I'm still young, and I have to strive for True Immortal in the future." True Lord Yuling glanced at Yun Lixuan, who was being beaten and dared not fight back, "Your father's qualifications are too poor, he can barely inherit the Northern Territory King, I don't fancy him."

The Northern Territory King's face turned black.

True Lord Yuling, is it really okay for you to talk like this? I'm still beside you.

"Then what kind of man does Sister Yuling like?" Yun Mengyu blinked, seemingly very interested in this topic.

"At least someone like Fugui? Of course, Fugui is not enough, he can't surpass me in qualifications." True Lord Yuling said.

"Tch, Fugui is fine. Besides, he's still young, his future potential is uncertain, he might surpass you." Yun Mengyu pouted and muttered, "According to your requirements, Sister Yuling, you might be single for life, I've never heard of a man who can surpass you in qualifications."

"So, if I choose a man, he must either have better qualifications than me or..." True Lord Yuling drooled slightly, "be extremely rich, willing to spoil me without limits, willing to spend money on me, regularly give me 'Holy Pills' and 'Immortal Pills,' occasionally a Dao Pill, and preferably have endless top-grade spirit stones and Immortal Spirit Stones... Ah, just thinking about it makes me intoxicated, I, Jiang Yuling, have hope for becoming a True Immortal."

"Sister Yuling, please be realistic, the latter kind of man is even more impossible than the former." Yun Mengyu rolled her eyes.

"Who says? I think Master Wang Shouzhe is quite capable of making money, and he's generous. Although he doesn't have enough money now, with his current development speed, the future is promising." True Lord Yuling's beautiful apricot eyes sparkled with excitement, "If he wants to support me, I have to think carefully, should I agree, or should I agree?"

While the Wang Mansion was in chaos.

In the secret treasury deep underground in the Northern Territory Wang Mansion.

This was the concentration of the Northern Territory Wang Mansion's wealth, filled with countless treasures and precious materials, accumulated over nearly ten thousand years.

And in the depths of the treasure trove, a tree that looked neither gold nor jade, emitting five-colored light all over, was rolling in the pile of treasures, its small roots tentatively reaching towards the surrounding treasures.

After a moment.

Seemingly disappointed, the strange five-colored glazed tree suddenly pushed away the pile of treasures.

Then it carefully took out a small bundle wrapped in a handkerchief from its bosom. Inside were some worthless low-grade spirit stones, immortal crystals, gold coins, and copper coins, as well as a spirit silk scarf embroidered with True Lord Yuling's name.

Compared to the previous pile of treasures, these things were worth far less.

But the tree cherished them greatly, gently caressing them with its roots.

"Yiya yaya." It lay in the pile of "garbage treasures," adjusting to a comfortable position and moaning, "Yiya yaya, yiyi ya."

……
