Chapter 1124: Chapter 82: I Just Want to Farm Quietly and Peacefully_3 Chapter 1124: Chapter 82: I Just Want to Farm Quietly and Peacefully_3 In this small domain, snow blanketed the area all year round.
The Wang family’s Yin Da Old Ancestor, Zhuohui Old Ancestor, along with Wang Shouzhe, and Longyan Old Ancestor were suspended above a small iceberg.
Inside the iceberg, there was a phoenix nest harboring the Mysterious Ice Phoenix.
Yin Da Old Ancestor lanted, “Our Wang family’s main bloodline is indeed the Ice Phoenix Bloodline. It’s just too bad that with each generation, few children awaken this bloodline.”
Since the establishnt of the Ding Duke’s Mansion with Old Ancestor Ding, there have only been thirteen Divine Old Ancestors, and only four have inherited the Divine Skills of the Mysterious Ice Phoenix’s True Law.
According to the Land of True Law Inheritance, about every five hundred years enough energy accumulates to allow for one inheritance, and at most two inheritances could be amassed within a thousand years. Now a thousand years have passed without any Ice Phoenix inheritance.
“Yin Da Old Ancestor, if no one inherited the Ice Phoenix Bloodline a thousand years ago, wouldn’t that have wasted the energy and opportunity?” Wang Shouzhe asked with slight confusion.
“This… it wouldn’t go wasted…” Yin Da Old Ancestor said with a blush, “We transferred the opportunity for inheritance, which brought in six or seven hundred million Qian Gold.”
“Transfer…” Wang Shouzhe was speechless. Transfer, it sounded nice, but it just ant selling.
“Shouzhe, we had no choice. Since Emperor Longchang ascended the throne, he has been making things difficult for our Wang family, and our economy has been declining every day. You may think six or seven hundred million Qian Gold sounds like a lot, but spread out over a year, it’s only about one to two million Qian Gold,” expressed Yin Da Old Ancestor helplessly. “The Wang family has too many people, and our annual expenses aren’t small. Plus, we need to nurture many Purple Abode Seeds and ensure the transmission of Divine ability seeds—ahh.”
A long sigh from Yin Da Old Ancestor revealed just how tightly the Great Qian Wang Clan was squeezed.
“Old Ancestor, we would have suffered if not for Shouzhe. From now on, our family’s situation will only improve,” Zhuohui Old Ancestor said contentedly. “Especially with our cooperation with Shouzhe’s Keep Achieving Comrcial Firm, handling various businesses within Return to Dragon City; it brings in a lot of money each year. From now on, I won’t need to squeeze the cultivation resources of our clan mbers.”
Despite his glorious appearance as a Divine ability species, Zhuohui Old Ancestor’s heart was full of worries. The family was poor, but to maintain the massive expense of a Divine ability species, he necessarily had to squeeze the resources of others.
Thus, the Great Qian Wang Clan was trapped in a vicious cycle.
Yin Da Old Ancestor’s spirit was lifted, his face glowing: “This is all thanks to Shouzhe’s blessing. In my life, I’ve never had such a highlight.” Indeed, Yin Da Old Ancestor had never imagined he would one day have influence in the Pri Minister’s cabinet.
Amid the praises, Wang Shouzhe humbly replied, “Elder Ancestors, you give too much credit. We are from the sa clan and should support each other. Well, it’s getting late. Longyan Old Ancestor, go ahead and receive the inheritance.”
“Yes, yes, I’ll initiate the Inheritance Land now. Longyan, prepare yourself and then enter to receive the inheritance,” Yin Da Old Ancestor said with a grave expression, starting to activate the Divine Skills for the Mysterious Ice Phoenix’s True Law.
“Yes, Yin Da Old Ancestor,” responded Longyan Old Ancestor, her deep, profound eyes revealing a fervent gleam. Once she received the True thod Inheritance, her path as a Divine Skill would be unobstructed.
The Inheritance Land underwent a transformation, the sky filled with a storm of snow, followed by hail pelting down like a furious tempest.
The mont had arrived.
Behind Longyan Old Ancestor, the Ice Phoenix Dharma unfolded, and with a resonant cry of the phoenix, she entered the Inheritance Land.
As ti passed slowly, the snow and hail grew heavier, nearly burying the small iceberg.
Wang Shouzhe felt a wave of gratification. Old Ancestor Longyan could finally stand tall; perhaps, she could beco the first Old Ancestor in the family to reach the Divine Power Territory.
Though he himself did not have a Divine Skill inheritance, he was not worried, confident that the future military academy would provide a solution.
…
The case of Kang Commandery Prince engaging in smuggling and colluding with the enemy was handled swiftly due to the concrete evidence.
Chen Jinglong, ng Yuanbai, and others, fearing delays might complicate matters, conducted interrogations continuously without rest.
It didn’t take long for the interrogation results to erge, and with Zhao Zhikun’s testimony and the account books from the Kang Commandery Prince’s Residence, the chain of evidence was imdiately complete.

Despite the case’s complicated twists in the early stages, with Wang Shouzhe of the An Commandery Prince faction and Kang Commandery Prince’s faction contesting intensely, when it ca ti to decide the outco, it concluded especially swiftly.
Under the stern orders of Emperor Longchang, the Three Talents Section, the Judiciary, the Inspectorate, and the Clan House jointly issued a public decree, asserting a resurgence of the smuggling and collusion case, now confirming Kang Commandery Prince as the mastermind behind the scandal, with undeniable evidence that couldn’t be disputed.
According to the laws of the Great Qian Land, he was stripped of his Quasi Emperor’s Son status, his Commandery Prince title, deprived of his voting rights at the Imperial Household Clan eting, his property was confiscated, and he was assigned to the Cannon Fodder Camp to redeem his cris among other penalties.
With the issuance of the decree, Shangjing City was instantly abuzz.
Even those Prominent Families who were closely watching the intensive strife between the factions of the deposed Kang Commandery Prince and An Commandery Prince were caught off guard, montarily dazed.
This feeling was as if they had been engaged in a world war the day before, and upon waking up from sleep, suddenly found the world peaceful, with tranquil epochs ahead.
