Protect Our Clan Leader Chapter 2276: 266: Immortal Emperor and Demon Emperor Vying

Chapter 2276: Chapter 266: Immortal Emperor and Demon Emperor Vying to Win Over Shou Zhe (Part 3)

In this situation, it is truly surprising that their family still has such profound background.

On the other hand, the current predicant of the Chao Clan is entirely due to the Wang family’s actions. Logically, they should harbor imnse hatred towards the Wang family. Yet, coming to offer such a grand gift — what is their intention?

Visitors are guests, and Wang Shouzhe did not make things difficult for the Chao Clan. Instead, he received the new generation leader of the Chao Clan, Qian Qi, warmly, just as he greeted other prominent families, offering a few words of encouragent as a senior, praising Qian Qi’s achievents on foreign battlefields over recent decades.

Qian Qi, in return, was exceedingly respectful to Wang Shouzhe, without a trace of his usual frivolous deanor.

Ultimately, Wang Shouzhe said, “After all, the Chao Clan is a noble family with tens of thousands of years of history. Despite being implicated by the Demon Lord this ti, they have also rendered significant service to the human race. rit is rit, fault is fault. rit must be rewarded, while fault must be punished.”

“Thank you, Master Shouzhe, for your guidance.” Qian Qi’s expression was suprely solemn, and he gratefully and respectfully bowed to Wang Shouzhe.

With the Demon Lord dead, Qian Qi not only failed to obtain that overquality Dan dicine but was also compelled to shoulder the burden of the family. During this period, what he experienced was far more turbulent and dramatic than the past several centuries combined.

To say he doesn’t harbor resentnt is certainly impossible, but Qian Qi also understands that the reason the Chao Clan still retains so hope and hasn’t been completely eradicated is precisely because Master Shouzhe said, ‘All things shall proceed according to law.’

Qian Qi has always been soone who knows how to seize opportunities. How could he fail to recognize that this Master Shouzhe is already a significant figure capable of influencing the situation of the Immortal-Demon Dynasties?

Holding onto his leg could at least allow the Chao Clan to survive after taking necessary punishnts; if they reform and act prudently, there’s hope for the Chao Clan to rise again.

In truth, not just Qian Qi but most people within the Chao Clan have highly complex feelings toward the Wang family.

It’s natural to say they hate the Wang family; indeed, they feel deep hatred, since it’s Wang Shouzhe who disrupted their forr glory. Many also have elders or descendants who suffered in the recent events. Yet, more than anything, their feelings about the Wang family are of dread.

With the Wang family’s influence and potential, if the Wang family chooses to target them, the overquality noble Chao Clan would inevitably be slowly eroded away, eventually vanishing within the endless stream of history.

Each ti the remaining mbers of the Chao Clan think of this, they are filled with panic.

Additionally, the Demon Emperor handled the Chao Clan quite decisively, not leaving any of the core individuals linked to the Demon Lord unpunished, those who were involved were dealt with accordingly, resulting in a major internal reshuffle within the Chao Clan, leaving mainly those who weren’t deeply involved.

In such circumstances, the voice demanding revenge against the Wang family naturally disappears as well.

With Qian Qi leading the call, this gathering cos to pass.

As for Wang Shouzhe, sparing them is naturally also out of consideration for the overall situation of the human race.

The Chao Clan has deep roots not established overnight. Due to consecutive generations of Demon Lords erging from the Chao Clan, they have expanded to a rather formidable extent. In terms of family heritage, they only slightly fall short compared to the Demon Dynasty Imperial Family.

This point can be discerned from the number of Transcendent Void Realm powerhouses within the Chao Clan.

An average overquality family wouldn’t be able to silently deploy six Transcendent Void Realm mbers to encircle the Wang family — only a clan like the Chao Clan with more than a dozen mbers at that realm and several serving as Demon Kings in the Real Demon Palace could achieve such a feat.

Truly taking drastic asures would certainly cause severe backlash from the Chao Clan, potentially triggering intense unrest in the Immortal-Demon Dynasties, causing more harm than good.

The future landscape is not limited to what’s in front of us.

Without the Demon Lord, the Chao Clan no longer has the audacity to act boldly, and they will naturally conduct themselves with restraint henceforth.

Even if so slight revenge ntality remains within their hearts, as the Wang family continues to grow stronger and more prosperous, all of the Chao Clan’s dread will transform into reverence.

“Shu Yong, entertain Qian Qi and the others, and escort them to the main hall,” Wang Shouzhe solemnly instructed Wang Shou Yong.

“Yes, Fourth Brother.”

Wang Shou Yong, after receiving the order, took over from Wang Shouzhe, warmly welcoming the Chao Clan’s guests.

As waves of guests arrived at the mansion, the atmosphere of the grand banquet gradually heated up until the Demon Emperor and Immortal Emperor’s arrival at the Wang family, bringing the event to its peak.

Wang Shouzhe was honored with the title of Duke, and the original presence of both the Immortal Emperor and Demon Emperor to celebrate was undoubtedly a “grand honor,” causing all local residents and In-Law Families to be extrely excited and feeling privileged.

With increasing interaction, Wang Shouzhe’s daily speech and manner with the Immortal and Demon Emperor have beco rather casual, but this ti, Wang Shouzhe showed great respect to the two True Immortals and True Demons by personally eting them outside Xin An Town to escort them back.

“Master Shouzhe, congratulations, congratulations.” The Red Hell Demon Emperor’s expression was serious, his deanor poised, displaying a courteous attitude.

Today, he was dressed in his rare ceremonial crown, with a grand robe highlighting his imposing aura — a far cry from his usual wretched, disreputable style, now exuding the full majesty of an emperor.

“Master Shouzhe is overwheld with trepidation and humbly thanks Your Majesty, the Demon Emperor.”

“The Red Hell Demon Emperor congratulates Shou Duke on his great joy, offering one thousand catties of Star Gold, a Heart of Red Lotus Karma Fire, one Half-immortal Artifact, three Dao-level Items, one Codex, ten Purgatory Demon Fruits, one Level Twelve Demonic Dragon ingredient, ten thousand catties of Level Twelve Spirit Wood Material, one large Spirit Stone mine, ten thousand acres of Ten Thousand-Year Spirit Wood Forest, one Purgatory Demon Ore Mountain, five various mines, a central mansion in Chi Yu Demon City, three top-tier estates, a million-household fiefdom…”
