"Shut up, don’t insult my brother." The Seven-tailed Fire Fox jumped out to loyally defend "brother" and said, "Without Brother Shouzhe, I would have died during my Celestial Tribulation. I did have a Spirit Contract with the ancestor of the Yuwen Family, enjoying their tributes and providing long-term protection. But this doesn’t an my private life needs to be controlled by your Yuwen Family."
Seeing her anger, Lady Bilian instantly backed down, smiling and saying, "Ancestor Fire Fox, that’s not what I ant. It’s just that the ancestor’s nature is simple and straightforward, and I was worried you might be deceived."
As she spoke, she cast a wistful glance at Wang Shouzhe.
Ever since eting this guy, nothing good has co of it. Every ti, she suffered losses at his hands. And this ti, even the Ancestor Fire Fox almost got wooed away by him.
"Bilian, this ancestor has lived longer than you have eaten rice. Who can deceive ?" The Seven-tailed Fire Fox waved her fluffy big tail with an air of age and experience, "Brother Shouzhe is the best person I’ve t in this lifeti."
Lady Bilian was speechless.
Wang Shouzhe’s skill at feeding enchanting soup is truly remarkable.
But now that things have co to this, she had no other options. Fortunately, the Yuwen Family has the Spirit Contract with the Ancestor Fire Fox; otherwise, she really feared the Ancestor Fire Fox would have been seduced by him.
"If Ancestor Fire Fox wants to visit the Wang Family, it’s entirely based on your wish. How could we juniors prohibit it?" Lady Bilian, knowing the temperant of Ancestor Fire Fox, had no choice but to coax and persuade with a smile, "However, now that you’ve just broken through, you need so ti to stabilize your cultivation, and it’s really not suitable to go out. Moreover, your breakthrough to Tier Seven is a grand event, and according to tradition, the clan needs to prepare a grand banquet for you, widely inviting various Noble Families to attend, allowing you to make an appearance."
Within a Noble Family, whenever an ancestor breaks through a realm, they must go through a ceremony.
On the one hand, it’s naturally for celebration; on the other hand, it’s to widely announce the news and intimidate potential opponents.
The Yuwen Family is currently beset by wolves. It was hard to elevate the Fire Fox from six tails to seven tails, so naturally, they must widely announce it. It allows those families coveting the Yuwen Family’s resources to reconsider and will reduce many troubles for the Yuwen Family.
Upon hearing this, the Seven-tailed Fire Fox’s anger dissipated a lot, and she reluctantly nodded: "Alright~ Then I’ll stay temporarily at the Yuwen Family, and after my cultivation stabilizes, I’ll go find Brother Shouzhe to play."
"Wonderful~ Thank you, Ancestor Fire Fox."
Lady Bilian finally breathed a sigh of relief, quietly wiping away the cold sweat from her forehead.
Luckily, despite her whims and fiery temper, this Fire Fox ancestor has a clear understanding of major issues; otherwise, Bilian really wouldn’t know how to persuade her.
At this mont, Jii Mingyu, Yuwen Jianye, and others also walked in from outside the Celestial Fox Pavilion, and a group of people naturally made a lively commotion, but let us temporarily not ntion that.
By this ti, Wang Shouzhe’s mission for this trip was considered complete.
Lady Bilian then instructed soone to present two trays, one containing a pile of Gold Notes, as thick as a thumb, the other holding a small Jade Box.
She gestured for the servant to present the Gold Notes to Wang Shouzhe and said, "Patriarch Shouzhe, these are the promised one hundred thousand Qian Gold, and besides, had it not been for your help, Ancestor Fire Fox wouldn’t have successfully advanced. Our Yuwen Family cannot show no gratitude."
As she spoke, she opened the Jade Box on the other tray and explained, "This Spirit-Storage Jade Box contains so rare and special plant seeds that the Yuwen Family unintentionally collected over the years. So are from the Outer Domain, Lin County, Foreign Countries, and so were found in relics, each with a detailed introduction. Knowing that Patriarch Shouzhe is a disciple of the Changchun Ascendant, perhaps there is sothing you can use."
Although she disliked Wang Shouzhe for wooing the Ancestor Fire Fox, she knew well enough that treating Wang Shouzhe poorly could only lead to a bad relationship. After all, the Wang Family has great potential with strong backing and excellent relations with the Academy. It’s not a family to be easily offended.
Wang Shouzhe’s eyes lit up.
Though the Wang Family’s business has been thriving with substantial profits in recent years, one hundred thousand Qian Gold is still a significant amount, and since money is needed everywhere within the family, it’s hard to save much.
Visiting the Yuwen Family this ti, he easily earned so much, and naturally, his mood was quite good.
And those seeds were a delightful surprise.
For Black Tortoise Cultivators who mainly practice Wood Elent Techniques like them, special plant seeds often an more varied tactical strategies.
Over the years, he has focused on collecting special plants and cultivating them, which resulted in creations like the "Witch Series" and Iron Python Vine, among others.
But with the power of the entire Wang Family, the variety of plants they could find was limited.
The Academy had nearly been depleted of plants they could release, and now the Changchun Ascendant practically avoided him for fear he would ask for prohibited Academy plants.
Truth be told, Wang Shouzhe hadn’t collected new plants for quite so ti.
The seeds Lady Bilian provided were just what he desired.
The Yuwen Family, being a millennium-old Noble Family, would surely have preserved plants of unique value. If there is even one seed he can use, it would enhance his combat strength.
