If it were an ordinary disciple using the Spirit Flowers from the Purple Abode Academy to gather honey and continuously offer it to the family, they would likely be subject to gossip. But Wang Luo Jing has a formidable reputation among the younger generation of the Purple Abode Academy.
Although she does not provoke others, she holds a grudge against whoever annoys her, usually leaving them at a significant disadvantage.
More importantly, Wang Luo Jing has the eccentric Lady Huandie backing her, so few people dare to cause her problems over this matter. Those who previously did so were "amicably reasoned" with by Wang Luo Jing until they were crying and expressing remorse, after which Wang Luo Jing reluctantly "forgave" them.
Therefore,
Now, the "Enlightennt Pill" has beco a kind of special product of the Wang family.
It’s just that the Enlightennt Pill has a relatively more significant effect on those with "Junk qualifications" and has limited improvent space for those with lower-grade bloodline talents. Wang Shouzhe, for example, had consud one in the past and found its effect minimal.
Thus, most families didn’t have a demand for Enlightennt Pills. They were only utilized by the direct heirs or legitimate heirs who, unfortunately, had a "Junk qualification."
However, for the manpower-deficient Wang family, the Enlightennt Pill was a precious asset. It provided a fast way to gather the head of the household and strengthen the entire family’s foundation.
And those with lower grades, like Class B, C, and D direct family mbers, could also use one or two Enlightennt Pills to improve their qualifications. However, the effect would significantly decrease upon the consumption of the second pill.
Wang Zongcai and Wang Yang engaged in casual conversation: "Brother Wang Yang, I rely took on a delivery task on my way here, to accumulate so small contribution points. Although the experience did allow to observe quite a bit, the families of the Eastern Sea Guard were a little too enthusiastic for to handle."
Wang Yang chuckled: "The Eastern Sea is a fertile area, many prominent families of Rank 8 or 9 own ample farmland. If they had the chance to cultivate crops for our Wang family, we could earn a fair bit of money. Besides, you’re a distinguished sixth son of the Celestial Wang family, could they not be enthusiastic when you’re on their territory?"
"A lot of girls were smitten with you this ti, weren’t they?"
Wang Zongcai blushed at this. It had been more than just a few girls; he felt as if he had barely escaped. Even two legitimate daughters from Rank 9 prominent families made clear their feelings for him.
How did girls beco so enthusiastic these days?
While they were talking, several children of various ages ran out from the main residence. They included the seventh elder of the Zong generation - Wang Zongxu, the eldest of the ninth generation in the Shi lineage - Wang Shin, and the young lady of the Ying generation - Wang Yingxue.
The seventh son, Wang Zongxu, is now nine years old and is the eldest son of Wang Shou Yong. Wang Shin is the eldest son of Zongcai’s elder brother, Wang Zongwei and is now twelve years old. Wang Yingxue is Wang Zongwei’s eldest daughter, just eight years old.
Upon spotting Wang Zongcai, they rushed to surround him.
"Sixth brother/Uncle!" they chattered, "We heard that you went out on a task, did you bring us any presents?"
"Sixth Brother, your hawk is stunning! Did you buy it in the Eastern Sea?"
In the eyes of so elders, Wang Zongcai was still a junior youth. But in the eyes of his siblings and nieces and nephews, he was an elder brother figure.
"Don’t touch my Spirit Hawk, it was a Level One Spirit Bird gifted to by my maternal grandfather when I visited him at the Lu Clan of Yingxiu," Wang Zongcai cautioned. "Of course, I have gifts - they are for everyone in the family under the age of eighteen."
Then he quickly retrieved so special products from the Eastern Sea from his luggage bag on the horse. Even though they weren’t anything of high value, they reflected Wang Zongcai’s good intentions.
The children, content with their gifts, began badgering Wang Zongcai with questions. They were still young, and the family’s Artifact Spirit System didn’t permit them to leave on tasks.
Twelve-year-old Wang Shin was the only one allowed to take considerable tasks; the rest only utilized their spare ti from Clan School to run minor errands within the family.
Just as Wang Zongcai was cheerfully sharing anecdotes with them and making his way ho, an inconspicuous carriage ca by and stopped at the entrance. From it erged an "young man" who exuded maturity, solidity, and an impressive deanor.
On seeing him, the children imdiately composed their faces, their bodies stiffening as they shouted, "Fourth Uncle/Grandpa..."
The "young man" smiled kindly, "All of you are here, co join for a al in my yard. It’s been a while since I’ve seen you; it’s a good ti to check on your studies."
What?
The faces of Wang Zongcai, Wang Zongxu, Wang Shining, Wang Yingxue, and others fell. They were almost in tears...
Life for them was so hard.
"Yes, Fourth Uncle/Grandpa!"
