…

Barely past his twenty-third birthday, he had already achieved the seventh level of Vital Energy Refining Realm!

His mastery of all basic skills was solid, and he had achieved a beginner’s success in Liu family’s secret techniques – the Willow Catkin Body Method and the Mysterious Element Swordsmanship.

He was even better than most direct heirs that the Rank 9 families carefully cultivated.

The effort and hard work of Wang Shou Yong were evident.

It was a pity that there were too many prodigies in the family. Wang Shou Yong felt a sense of powerlessness as the gap only widened the harder he tried.

With a mixed feeling of anxiety, he walked into his fourth brother, Wang Shouzhe’s courtyard.

The courtyard was filled with all kinds of flowers and plants, a picture of vivid, thriving life everywhere he looked, with various exotic flowers competing to show their splendor.

Such a spectacle at the beginning of spring was extremely rare indeed.

A young man around twenty-five or twenty-six was lying casually in a Taishi Chair, basking in the sun, seemingly at complete ease as he told stories to the children.

Two children surrounded him.

The older one was a girl, about six or seven years old, exquisitely adorable.

The younger one was a boy, about four years old.

He had placed a stool beside him and was sitting on it, his small body as straight as could be, with eyes wide open and his mouth gaping, completely engrossed in the story.

Seeing that his fourth brother was telling stories to the children, Wang Shou Yong didn’t interrupt and just stood aside patiently.

“Daddy, Zhu Ba Jie is too gluttonous, right? Just like big sister, very good at eating,” the pretty little girl reclined in Wang Shouzhe’s arms and said with a giggle.

“You can’t say that about your sister Lici.” Wang Shouzhe lightly tapped her forehead and smiled, “Otherwise, she won’t share any good stuff with you in the future.”

Speaking of which, Wang Licui was very fond of these two children. Whenever she had any delicacies, she would excitedly present them to her younger siblings.

For the food-loving Wang Licui, this was already quite rare. Even Wang Shouzhe himself didn’t receive such treatment.

However, considering that Wang Licui once nearly choked the children with food, Wang Shouzhe had ordered that before the children could eat anything offered by their elder sister, it must first be approved by either he or their mother.

“I understand, Daddy, I still love sister Lici,” the small girl apologized and then coquettishly said, “Daddy, I want to hear the story of Sister Chang’e. I don’t like Zhu Ba Jie.”

Then, the little boy who had been sitting straight-backed on his stool quickly added, “Daddy, I don’t like Zhu Ba Jie either, I want to hear the story of Sun Wukong.”

Then, Wang Shouzhe lovingly stroked his daughter’s hair and said, “OK, OK, I’ll tell you the story of Sister Chang’e.”

The little boy, used to being overlooked, sighed subtly and decided that he would offer some candies to his sister later and let her ask their father to tell the story of Sun Wukong so that their daddy could tell more stories about Sun Wukong.

Just then,

A glamorous and captivating woman in her twenties, who walked with a natural grace, walked out from the house and reproached Wang Shouzhe, “Wang Shouzhe, what kind of nonsense stories are you telling the kids again?”

“It’s making them neglect their studies, filling their minds with these magical and mysterious things. That’s enough, your fifth brother is waiting to talk to you.”

This beautiful and charming woman was none other than Liu Ruolan, the wife of the current clan leader of the Wang family.

“Ah, the time for joy ends here. Lici honey, go back to your room with mother and read or write something. Daddy will talk with Uncle for a while and then I’ll come back to be with you,” said Wang Shouzhe as he caressed his daughter lovingly.

Then, the daughter and the son got up obediently.

They bowed formally to Wang Shou Yong, “Liyao, Zong’an, greeting fifth uncle.”

Wang Shou Yong greeted his niece and nephew with a wide smile. He then took out some trinkets and said, these are some novelty items that your uncle found in the town and bought for you.

Wang Liyao and Wang Zong’an were delighted and thanked their fifth uncle again.

After that, Wang Shou Yong formally greeted Liu Ruolan, “Shou Yong greets fourth sister-in-law.”

Liu Ruolan returned the greeting, “Greetings, fifth uncle, I’ve told Qiao’er to bring some tea. I need to guide the children in their studies, so I won’t disturb your conversation.”

“Please, sister-in-law,” Wang Shou Yong cupped his hands in salute.

After Liu Ruolan elegantly curtsied, she led the two children away.

Wang Shouzhe entertained Wang Shou Yong in the pavilion in the courtyard.

At this time, Liu QiaoEr had, following her mistress’s instructions, brewed a pot of Spirit Tea.

“This is the new Cloud Mist Spirit Tea your sister-in-law brought back from her recent visit to her maiden home. Taste it, Shou Yong,” Wang Shouzhe said as he took a seat, smiling.

The Cloud Mist Spirit Tea was grown in the Spirit Field in the Liu Family’s Cloud Mist Cave and harvested in winter.

Every time Liu Ruolan returned to her parental home, she would bring back a considerable amount for Wang Shouzhe.

“Thank you, fourth brother.”

The two of them took their seats, sipping tea while they chatted.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Wang Shou Yong awkwardly aired his apology, “Fourth brother, I have encountered an issue…”

Before he could finish, Wang Shouzhe waved his hand and chuckled, “I already know about it.”

A chill ran down Wang Shou Yong’s spine. He knew that his fourth brother had a secret intelligence department under his command. It was said that this intelligence organization had practically the entire Ping’an Town under its surveillance.

Initially, he had thought that it was an exaggeration. Now it seemed that the actual situation was probably even more dramatic than rumored. The incident that had recently occurred at Dingpu Ferry had already reached his fourth brother’s ears.

In fact, Wang Shou Yong had heard rumors that this intelligence organization was constantly expanding its scope. However, he had no idea of its extent.
