Protect Our Patriarch

Book 2: Chapter 39: Zhongxuan! Guard your heart! Double spirits dominate



Not only were they shocked, but the disciples from the Xiaoyao Peak and Wandie Valley were also stunned.

These two sisters were already so fierce, yet someone dared to challenge them. Among the disciples under 35 years old in Changchun Valley, who could possibly defeat them?

Wasn't this just asking for trouble!

"This..." Jinshan, who was comforting the new disciples, was also dumbfounded. He hurriedly tried to dissuade Wang Shouzhe, "Kid, don't go up there and seek your own death~ Those two girls are very fierce."

Although he was jealous of Wang Shouzhe's handsome and heroic appearance, Wang Shouzhe was still a disciple of Changchun Valley. How could he bear to watch him walk into danger?

The senior sisters who had received favors from Wang Shouzhe were also anxious: "Junior Brother Shouzhe, don't be reckless! Even Brother Yuzhe couldn't defeat them, how could you, an outsider, do it?"

"Junior Brother Shouzhe, come down quickly, they are too dangerous." Even the little senior sister, Luwei, who had been sulking on the side, was extremely nervous. If something happened to him, where would she buy her skincare products in the future?

Seeing their concern for him, Wang Shouzhe felt comforted.

Although the disciples of Changchun Valley were not strong in combat, at least their hearts were good. It was not in vain that he had stood up for them.

"Hehe."

In the sky, Master Xuan Yao, seeing this scene, couldn't help but chuckle: "This kid is still an outsider, yet he dares to challenge the two prodigies."

"Master Xuan Yao, don't underestimate him." Lady Huandie giggled, "Although his age is unclear, he has already reached the Lingtai realm. He might have a chance to win."

Wang Shouzhe was wearing a high-level concealment pendant, but in front of people at the level of Master, wearing or not wearing the pendant made no difference.

"What's the use of being in the Lingtai realm, he's still just an outsider." Master Xuan Yao shook his head and laughed lightly, "Li Yuzhe was an excellent disciple, the future core, yet he was defeated cleanly."

"What's wrong with being an outsider?" Master Changchun glanced at him faintly, "Who said that outsiders are definitely weaker than core disciples?"

He was also surprised that Wang Shouzhe had stepped up. Speaking of which, he had a good impression of this kid and even had the idea of accepting him as a core disciple. If it weren't for Wang Shouzhe's refusal, he would already be a core disciple now.

The only thing that bothered him was Wang Long Yan.

Wang Long Yan had left a deep impression on him. After all, every three years, he would hear that Wang Long Yan had beaten up some disciple of his. In terms of the damage caused to Changchun Valley, Wang Long Yan was no weaker than the two girls in front of him.

Wait a minute!

Master Changchun suddenly felt something was wrong.

Both of these girls had the surname Wang, and Wang Long Yan and Wang Shouzhe also had the surname Wang. Could there be a connection between them?

There were many people in the world with the surname Wang, and under normal circumstances, he wouldn't think this way. But today's situation was strange, and it was hard to say...

A flash of brilliance appeared in Master Changchun's eyes.

At this time, Wang Luo Jing and Wang Luo Qiu, who were shocked and confused on the stage, finally reacted.

Wang Luo Jing was the first to salute Wang Shouzhe: "Luo Jing greets Fourth Brother."

Wang Luo Qiu also quickly saluted, but then raised her eyebrows, her tone full of confusion: "Fourth Brother, are you really going to stand up for Changchun Valley?"

The two girls calling him "Fourth Brother" didn't seem strange to them, but it stunned everyone else.

How could it be, they were actually a family?!

Especially the disciples of Changchun Valley, they found it unbelievable. An outsider disciple was actually the brother of these two prodigies?

Indeed!

In the sky, Master Changchun's heart skipped a beat, they really were a family!

Next to him, Master Xuan Yao and Lady Huandie also showed surprise.

When they had accepted their disciples, they had also looked at their background information. They were born in a small town in the border city, a family of eighth rank. Their family background was clean, and their ancestors for dozens of generations could be traced.

But such a family, having one prodigy was already a great fortune. Now they had two, it could be said that their ancestors had burned high incense.

This outsider disciple, perhaps he couldn't be... yes, otherwise he wouldn't be.

On the stage, Wang Shouzhe was not affected by their reactions.

"Look at what you're saying." He smiled faintly, "Although I'm an outsider disciple, I'm still part of Changchun Valley. Naturally, I can't stand by and watch you run wild on our turf."

Wang Luo Qiu puffed up her cheeks in anger, feeling a bit wronged: "Fourth Brother, you're bullying us."

"That's right! We rarely have a chance to show off." Wang Luo Jing also had a faint look in her eyes, acting coquettishly as if she was angry but not really, "You're just trying to steal our thunder, aren't you? You're too mean~"

What?

The disciples from Wandie Valley and Xiaoyao Peak were all dumbfounded.

Many of the new disciples had already taken Wang Luo Jing and Wang Luo Qiu as their idols, feeling that they were so domineering and powerful, with an invincible momentum to push their peers!

They were considered role models, but they didn't expect that as soon as their Fourth Brother came up, the two domineering girls started acting coquettishly. This completely overturned their imagination.

"No matter what, I'm also under 35 years old." Wang Shouzhe said with a light laugh, "You can come to Changchun Valley to show off for your own sects. Naturally, I can also stand up for Changchun Valley and let you see. How about this, I won't bully you, you two can come up together."

"Junior Brother Shouzhe is right! That's so domineering!"

As soon as these words came out, many of the senior sisters from Changchun Valley cheered.

Senior Brother Jinshan originally wanted to cheer as well, but when he saw a group of junior sisters looking at Wang Shouzhe with shining eyes, he swallowed his words back.

Sigh~ These junior sisters were just too young, they didn't know that handsome men were unreliable.Back then, ah...

Elder Brother Jinshan shook his head secretly, as if some past events had been stirred up. He seemed to have aged a bit, looking like a man with a story...

However, while the disciples of Changchun Valley were delighted, those from Wandie Valley and Xiaoyao Peak were not pleased.

"Sister Luo Jing, Sister Luo Qiu, don't care about which brother he is to you! This is about the honor of each peak and each lineage. Don't hold back in the fight! Our master is watching from above."

At this point, the disciples from both lineages didn't care about their differences anymore. They all pointed their spears at Wang Shouzhe, shouting out their dissatisfaction.

However, their shouting was of no use.

The two sisters on the stage remained unmoved.

"I don't want to fight with Fourth Brother~ Fourth Brother should go and experience others." Wang Luo Jing glanced at Wang Shouzhe with a deep look in her eyes, then turned around and left the stage without hesitation.

Wang Luo Qiu hesitated slightly, but in the end, she said, "The timing is not right today. I will learn from Fourth Brother's skills another time. Excuse me."

With that, she also turned around and left the stage.

It wasn't that they couldn't fight. After all, she often sparred with Fourth Brother. But if they fought, it would inevitably damage her future image as an empress... because the result would certainly be miserable!

Seeing the two girls leave the stage without a word, everyone was dumbfounded.

The disciples of Wandie Valley fell silent.

The disciples of Xiaoyao Peak also fell silent.

Only the disciples of Changchun Valley were greatly encouraged, feeling that Wang Shouzhe had helped them regain some face. Although they won without a fight, it felt a bit unsatisfactory, but it was better than losing~

"Let it be~" Zhang Xiuping, who was in charge of leading the team, smiled at Wang Luo Qiu, "After all, we are a family. It's normal for you not to want to fight with your brother. Let's give him some face today. Let's go and see the Xuanbing Hall."

Upon hearing the name Xuanbing Hall, the disciples of Xiaoyao Peak were all excited.

Because Xuanbing Hall had always been dominant, most of the time, they were the ones to observe others. This time, having the opportunity to visit Xuanbing Hall was undoubtedly a glorious moment for the Xiaoyao lineage.

Hearing this, the disciples of Wandie Valley didn't want to be left behind and immediately surrounded Wang Luo Jing, saying, "Let's go to Xuanbing Hall too."

The two groups were about to set off together.

Suddenly.

Wang Shouzhe's voice came from the stage.

"Everyone, please hold on."

"This little brother, do you have any advice?"

Zhang Xiuping and Mu Yuanbai looked at each other and simultaneously raised their eyebrows at Wang Shouzhe.

They were only being polite to this Fourth Brother because of Wang Luo Qiu and Wang Luo Jing. Otherwise, as core disciples of the Xiaoyao lineage, they wouldn't need to pay attention to a mere outsider disciple.

"I dare not advise." Wang Shouzhe chuckled lightly, his tone still calm, "Since you have all observed me in Changchun Valley, I naturally have to represent Changchun Valley and observe you."

Zhang Xiuping and Mu Yuanbai both laughed at his words.

"So, Brother Shouzhe, how do you want to observe?" Zhang Xiuping asked, his tone relaxed and casual.

He thought to himself that Wang Shouzhe probably wanted to earn some face for Changchun Valley. Considering Sister Luo Qiu's face, it wouldn't hurt to send a disciple up to cooperate with him.

Unexpectedly, Wang Shouzhe's gaze fell on him and Mu Yuanbai.

"I heard that those over sixty are not allowed to participate in this tradition. I presume Brother Xiuping and Brother Yuanbai are not yet sixty." Wang Shouzhe's expression was calm, as if he was talking about something very ordinary, "I wonder which of you two brothers can come down and teach me?"

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, the disciples of Xiaoyao Peak were all shocked.

Had Luo Qiu's brother gone mad? He actually wanted to challenge the two core disciples!

Zhang Xiuping and Mu Yuanbai were even more angered.

They were both outstanding among the younger generation, proud and arrogant by nature, and had never been used to swallowing their anger. Moreover, the dignity of a core disciple was not to be trampled upon.

Just now, they were being polite to her brother out of respect for Sister Luo Qiu. Since this kid didn't appreciate it, they couldn't be blamed!

Zhang Xiuping and Mu Yuanbai looked at each other and made a decision immediately.

Mu Yuanbai lightly jumped up, his feet stepping on the air as if it were solid ground, and leisurely stepped onto the stage.

Seeing this, the disciples of Changchun Valley under the stage immediately became nervous, and even the female disciples of Wandie Valley couldn't help but stop in their tracks.

Mu Yuanbai's hands were behind his back, his expression serious, and there was a hint of chill in his eyes, "Little brother, if we spar, I will not show mercy."

Wang Shouzhe's expression was as calm as ever, and he bowed his hand in a leisurely manner, "Of course, please teach me, Brother Yuanbai."

"Good!"

Mu Yuanbai suddenly became very serious.

He held one hand behind his back and the other in front of him, and a sword about a foot long appeared in his palm.

This sword was as thin as a cicada's wing, emitting a bright green glow all over. It swam around in his palm, as lively as a live fish.

The sword's edge cut through the air, making a pleasant ringing sound.

"This sword is called 'Cicada's Cry'." He looked down at it in his palm, "It was given to me by my master, Xuan Yao. It's agile and sharp, killing people invisibly. Please be careful, Brother Shouzhe."

Wang Shouzhe's expression was as calm as a still pond. He swiped his storage ring, and a simple and heavy long sword was held in his palm.

This sword was about four feet three inches long, with a heavy bronze color all over. Its spiritual light was restrained, and ancient runes were faintly visible, exuding an extraordinary aura in its low-key appearance.

However, these were not the most eye-catching features.

What attracted the most attention was its thickness, which was at least thirty percent thicker than a regular long sword, and its blade, which was much wider than a regular long sword. This made it less agile but more heavy and imposing.

It didn't look like a sword, but more like a double-edged knife.

Clearly, it was a spiritual sword that could attack and defend, and was adept at chopping and slashing.

No wonder, when Ancestor Zhou Xuan commissioned the master refiner to forge this sword, he must have considered the need to fight fierce beasts in the outer realms. A sword that was too light wouldn't do.

"This sword is called 'Zhou Xuan Sword', it is a mid-grade spiritual weapon passed down in my family. The sword's aura is heavy and domineering, capable of cutting through gold and splitting mountains." Wang Shouzhe held the Zhou Xuan Sword, his eyes gradually becoming more assertive, "Brother Yuan Bai, be careful."

Through the thick body of the Zhou Xuan Sword, he seemed to see the scene of the Ancestor wielding the Zhou Xuan Sword and slaying fierce beasts.

The Zhou Xuan Sword had been enshrined in the Wang's Clan ancestral hall for years, and only Ancestor Xie Han had used it to kill enemies.

As the head of the Wang's Clan, Wang Shouzhe was the true inheritor of the Zhou Xuan Sword. This was not just a symbol of martial power, but also a symbol of the family's prestige, embodying the worship and faith of all family members.

Unconsciously, the mysterious energy within Wang Shouzhe began to circulate, and his momentum grew stronger and stronger.

Seeing the Zhou Xuan Sword, Wang Luoqiu and Wang Luoqing, the two arrogant sisters, also became serious, their eyes filled with a touch of awe.

If it could be said that their fourth brother's prestige in front of them was six or seven points, once he held the Zhou Xuan Sword, this prestige would directly rise to ten points.

At this time, neither of them dared to talk back.

"A mid-grade spiritual weapon?"

Mu Yuanbai couldn't grasp the profound meaning contained in the Zhou Xuan Sword, but his eyes changed instantly, filled with both solemnity and envy.

The value of a mid-grade spiritual weapon, whether in terms of the rarity of the materials or the difficulty of refining, was far greater than that of a low-grade spiritual weapon, and its total value was several times higher.

Sister Luoqiu's brother has both a storage ring and a mid-grade spiritual weapon, his foundation is really solid.

Just as he was about to announce the start of the contest.

Suddenly.

Wang Shouzhe flipped his hand, and a shield appeared in his left hand. The shield was the size of a basin, shaped like an upside-down pot lid, heavy yet light, with runes flowing and spiritual light flickering, clearly not ordinary.

"This shield is called 'Guardian Heart'," Wang Shouzhe introduced, "It is a half-physical, half-energy spiritual shield, with very strong overall defense. Brother Yuan Bai, be careful."

Two spiritual weapons?

Mu Yuanbai's expression froze, his face filled with both solemnity and endless envy.

He was born in an eighth-grade family, which had given him a lot of support, allowing him to become a core disciple at a young age. But asking the family for another spiritual weapon would be too much.

The other disciples were also very envious of Wang Shouzhe, thinking that he must be the direct descendant of a heavenly family, and his wealth was enviable.

"Brother Yuan Bai, please enlighten me."

Wang Shouzhe held the sword and shield, ready to fight.

"In that case, I won't be polite."

As soon as Mu Yuanbai's words fell, the spiritual sword "Cicada Wing" in his palm immediately emitted a sharp sword cry.

"Chirp~~~~!"

In the blink of an eye, it flew to Wang Shouzhe's face and slashed.

Its speed was so fast that it was hard for ordinary people to catch.

However, was Wang Shouzhe an ordinary person?

As the spiritual sword attacked, the spiritual shield "Guardian Heart" slightly lifted, and a shield light suddenly bloomed.

"Clang!"

The shield light rippled like waves on a green lake, easily blocking the attacking spiritual sword.

Are you kidding? The spiritual shield "Guardian Heart" was a high-grade spiritual weapon, how could a low-grade spiritual sword easily break its defense?

Before Mu Yuanbai could react, Wang Shouzhe's figure had already rushed over like lightning, and the Zhou Xuan Sword slashed down.

A sharp sword aura instantly burst out of the sword, killing towards Mu Yuanbai.

Dominant, overbearing, and sharp!

Wherever the sword aura passed, the air was torn apart.

The piercing whistling sound instantly cut through the air, echoing throughout the entire arena.

What a powerful sword aura!

Mu Yuanbai's face changed, and he secretly said that it was not good.

Above the sky, Elder Changchun, Elder Xuan Yao, and Lady Huo Die also couldn't help but cast surprised glances.
