Chapter 301: Chapter 52: The Direct Disciple of Xue Palace! Arriving at Changning Guard_2

“Brother Wang Hu, be careful with that large box.” Wang Zongchang reminded a house servant who was lifting a box onto the ship, “Those are all sea-flavored snacks and small dried fish. Please put them all in my guest room later, I’m afraid the rats on the ship might steal them.”

For this trip to the Hundred Islands Guard, he of course paid out of his own pocket for so snacks, planning to give them to his younger siblings and so of the younger elders when he returned. The rest left, he would find an opportunity to send them to the Purple Abode Academic Palace to satisfy his sister Wang Licui’s craving.

Although his sister Wang Licui was a foodie, she still had the deanor of an elder sister and was very kind to the younger siblings.

“Second young master, don’t worry.” Wang Hu, a house servant in his mid-twenties, responded with a smile, “I followed your instructions and packed everything tightly, so it won’t get damp or stolen. Moreover, I will also keep an eye on Little Bao and prevent him from sneaking any.”

This Wang Fu was the son of the old house servant Wang Zhong. He had been nurtured by the family since he was young, and had started working for the family when he was sixteen. He had been serving for nine years and could be considered a direct servant of the Wang family, holding a high status within the family hierarchy.

With the increasing resources of the family, his father Wang Zhong also received allowances, and at his young age, he was already at Level Six of the Qi Refinent Realm, much stronger than his father was in his youth.

He was even more powerful than Liu Yongzhou, a direct descendant of the Liu family, who was considered a promising figure.

“Brother,” voiced Wang Bao, who had just joined the rank of house servants at the age of sixteen or seventeen. His face turned dark as he retorted, “The second young master has already shared plenty with . Where would I have the gall to steal any?”

This young man was very energetic and was the second son of house servant Wang Zhong. Because of his superior talent since childhood, and the opening of the family cultivation path, he received the best cultivation from an early age. Now, he is already at Level Five of the Qi Refinent Realm, surpassing his father at the age of thirty-five, and has imasurable potential for the future.

Now that the Wang family was wealthy, they spared no efforts to cultivate these direct house servants.

At this ti, the Wang family servants were busy loading the cargo onto the ship.

An old carriage arrived at the dock, and a few people dressed as travelling rchants got out. They were experienced peddlers, carrying plenty of goods and needing the help of dock workers to load their goods onto the ship.

There was a young peddler who seed sowhat nervous, with slightly flickering eyes.

An older, bald peddler patted him on the shoulder and said in a low voice, “Zheng, stay calm. With Elder’s injury this ti, this crucial escort mission falls on us. But this is a great opportunity. As long as we complete the mission, the young master will definitely reward us.”

“Brother Li,” the young peddler whispered, “I heard that thing can actually…”

The bald man’s expression tightened at the words, imdiately chastising in a low voice, “Be careful with words! There are too many mouths around, the matter is important, we can’t make any mistakes.”

He then reassured Zheng in a low voice, “You can rest assured, there will definitely be no problems this ti. Soone will et us as soon as we arrive at Donggang.”

He had full confidence etched on his face.

He had taken this route to many tis, and had connections everywhere.

As they spoke, all of their goods were loaded onto the ship.

Wang Zongchang also noticed this group of peddlers but didn’t pay them much attention.

Comrcial ships of the Chen Clan of Donggang offered transportation services for peddlers, and at quite a high charge. Peddler groups like this were commonplace on the dock, cropping up one after another like carp crossing a river.

Within half a day, this cargo ship was fully loaded and set sail for Donggang.

…

anwhile.

At the east gate of Changning Guard.

The city guards had cleared the area early in the morning. At this mont, apart from the soldiers holding long swords and a group of noble family heads outside the gate, there was no idle person to be seen.

The continuous rain had gathered a lot of water in the low-lying areas outside the city. If you carelessly stepped into it, you would imdiately splash muddy water.

Luckily, all the heads of prominent families present had their bodies protected by Mysterious Energy, otherwise, they might be covered in mud, losing all decorum.

However, their attention was hardly on these small matters at the mont.

They were clustered around the City Lord Xiahou Hongde, eagerly peering into the distance as if they were waiting for soone.

Gongsun Yan, the new family head of the Gongsun Clan from Shanyang, had grown up listening to the grand deeds of Wang Shouzhe and was very close to him.

He seed a bit nervous as he stood almost directly behind Wang Shouzhe. Unable to contain his curiosity, he asked, “Cousin Shouzhe, I’ve heard that the direct disciples of the Academy are all cultivators in the Heavenly Human Realm. They’re all very young and promising, far exceeding the families in these remote areas.”

“Not all of them are Heavenly Realm cultivators, but the potential and prospect of direct disciples are indeed great.” Wang Shouzhe explained, “Yet, they walk a different path from ours. The more they receive, the more they will have to give in the future.”

He hadn’t been idly staying in the Academy in the past days.

Naturally, he knew that the disciples of the Academy, especially the outstanding ones, not only receive high-quality cultivation resources from the Academy but also bear heavy responsibilities.

After all, the academy does not cultivate disciples to let them dominate in the civil society.

Just think, Master Binglan had three direct disciples, but only the youngest, Fang Youan, was at his side.

So where did the other two go?
