Chapter 182: Chapter 2 The Wife is a Hidden Boss_2

“Fourth Brother, this matter was handled improperly by me. I was too careless and nearly let a disaster occur because of that thief. I am ashamed for not living up to the years of cultivation you’ve given me, please punish me.” Wang Shou Yong said remorsefully.

Wang Shouzhe didn’t give a direct reply but said, “By the way, your wedding to your fiancée from the Chen Clan of Donggang is drawing near, right?”

Wang Shou Yong’s face turned slightly red as he replied, “Yes, the marriage is set for May.”

“Good, I will prepare a grand gift for you when the time comes,” Wang Shouzhe said with a smile.

Wang Shou Yong immediately thanked him, “Thank you, Fourth Brother.”

Afterwards, Wang Shouzhe casually said, “Our family has always executed a system of merit in these past years. When a mistake is made, punishment follows, when achievements are made, reward follows.”

“Here I have two pieces of information about some spies from families with ill intentions. Handle them, and consider it as making amends for your previous error.”

“Thank you, Fourth Brother.” Wang Shou Yong gratefully took the information. This was his fourth brother looking out for him, not only giving him the chance to redeem himself for his mistakes but also to improve himself.

With his fourth brother’s methods, he could easily deal with spies that had already been discovered without making a sound.

“Shou Yong, you have to do well, you are the future backbone of our Wang family,” Wang Shouzhe encouraged.

At the mention of ‘backbone’,

Wang Shou Yong let out a sigh and said, “Fourth brother, setting aside the gap between you and me, even compared to sisters Luo Qiu and Luo Jing, I fall far short. They are the future pillars of our family.” He wasn’t very confident when he mentioned this.

“Shou Yong, don’t belittle yourself. I have seen the hard work you and Shu Lian have put in over the years,” Wang Shouzhe personally poured him a cup of tea and smiled, “As for Luo Qiu and the others, they are undoubtedly the cream of the crop. But do you think our small Ping’an Town can really raise a true phoenix?”

“Fourth brother, you mean…” Wang Shou Yong asked with a serious face.

“This world is vast, and our small Ping’an Town is just an insignificant corner,” Wang Shouzhe said calmly, “Can we tie their wings with ropes and lock them up in cages? No matter where they may soar in the future, we, as their brothers, will always support and protect them.”

Wang Shou Yong took a deep breath, his expression solemn, “Fourth brother, I understand. I will strive hard to help you protect our home.”

That’s right, since a pioneering figure has appeared in the family, there must also be those who play the role of a preserver. Shou Yong and Shu Lian, with their good natures, must take up the responsibility towards the family.

After the two brothers chatted for a while, Wang Shou Yong left with his mind full of confidence. Now that he understood his position, he would no longer feel lost.

After Shou Yong left, Wang Shouzhe sat alone in the courtyard, slowly sipping his tea, his emotions waxing and waning.

Eight years had passed in a blink of an eye since he arrived in this world.

Leading a small, crisis-ridden family, step by step out of danger and into prosperity today was a challenging task indeed.

Despite the rough journey, he harvested great rewards.

Not only did the family thrive, and Ping’an Town, under his management, became more and more solid, almost like a privately owned land. He also gained a gentle, virtuous, and powerful wife, as well as a pair of precious children.

Besides, his greatest achievement was the advancement in his cultivation base. After awakening his bloodline once, his bloodline talent jumped a level, improving not only his fighting strength but also the speed of his cultivation.

The twenty-year cultivation plan set by the family was completed by him in just eight years.

His cultivation has now reached the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm, just shy of touching the Spirit Platform Realm.

With just two or three more months to go, it would be perfect.

However, there is a big issue in front of him.

That is, whether to take the Heavenly Spirit Pill to advance to the Spirit Platform Realm directly or further refine his bloodline before trying to reach the Spirit Platform Realm.

Having awakened his bloodline once, if he directly ascends to the Spirit Platform Realm, he could awaken his bloodline for the second time.

This situation and the results are similar to those of the old ancestor Longyan.

But this situation is quite different from that of Lici.

Wang Licui is already at the second awakening. Once advanced to Spirit Platform Realm, it would be the third bloodline awakening.

The future is truly boundless.

Of course, Wang Shouzhe can’t help but feel envious of this.

Therefore, over the years, he has been continually amassing wealth and consistently probing for heavenly treasures that could possibly awaken his bloodline for a second time.

Unfortunately, despite consuming countless heavenly treasures and spirit pills over the years that could enhance the talent of his bloodline,

He felt like there was some improvement.

However, the second awakening of his bloodline still seemed far off in the future.

Could it be that he could only enter the Spirit Platform Realm first and then find a way to slowly awaken for the third time? But if so, the difficulty would be even greater.

As the saying goes, once you fall behind, you are always behind.

Whilst in the midst of his slight frown, Liu Ruolan brought over some snacks and said, “My lord, are you still wavering about the second awakening of your bloodline?”

“Let it be, we can only do our best and accept our fate. If it is not in my destiny, there is no point in forcing it,” Wang Shouzhe said in a carefree manner. “Besides, even if I’m not strong enough in the future, I still have you, my wife, to protect me.”

Protection!

Yes, that’s right.

When he married Liu Ruolan, Wang Shouzhe always thought that she was just an ordinary legitimate daughter.

But, what he consistently overlooked was the fact that he had never truly seen through her cultivation base; he just vaguely felt that his delicate wife Liu Ruolan seemed to be carrying a small spiritual treasure that concealed her energy.

Such an oversight was only normal.

Because Wang Shouzhe never could’ve imagined that the Liu Family would willingly marry off a legitimate daughter with such high bloodline awakening level to him.

Forget about marrying him; even if it was the Tianren Family who came to propose, they wouldn’t marry off such a highly talented legitimate daughter.

“Ruolan, I still cannot understand why the Liu family agreed to your marriage to me, especially since you, with your bloodline talent, should have been studying at the Academic Palace and competing against the world’s best. Could it be that you secretly fell in love with me early on and insisted on marrying me?”

Wang Shouzhe asked this question for the umpteenth time.

“Hehe, my lord, don’t overthink it. It was the Old Ancestor’s idea to betroth me to you. Of course, it also has something to do with my reluctance to go to the Academic Palace. If I didn’t want to marry, the Old Ancestor wouldn’t force me.” Liu Ruolan had also answered this way several times before, only followed by a frown, saying, “Perhaps it was out of consideration for the Old Ancestor Longyan. But it’s quite good this way since the pressure and competition in the Academy Palace is quite large.”

Wang Shouzhe shook his head in denial, “That’s impossible. You’ve said yourself that the Old Ancestor incidentally obtained an Innate Taoist Embryo spirit seed years ago, which was priceless and she dared not announce it. She used it on your mother, which resulted in your exceptional talent.”

Wang Shouzhe knew that the Old Ancestor, who had already reached the advanced stage of the Spirit Platform Realm, had been lucky to find a Innate Taoist Embryo spirit seed during an explorative trip to some ancient ruins with her Master.

“The Old Ancestor must have high hopes for you, so how could she marry you off for just a bit of face?” Wang Shouzhe had pondered this for a while, but couldn’t figure it out. Perhaps Old Ancestor Longyan had some secret deal with the Old Ancestor?

He had asked the Old Ancestor Longyan, but the latter merely said that the time was not ripe.

“I don’t know about this either. However, the Old Ancestor said she would come over soon, so why don’t you ask her yourself when the time comes?” Liu Ruolan said in a casual manner.

“Ruolan, why did you initially hide it from me?”

Upon thinking of this, Wang Shouzhe couldn’t help but feel a wave of emotions.

Just after their happy honeymoon period following their wedding.

Wang Shouzhe had a bit of an emotional clash with his wife over a certain “rare” “position” issue.

In a burst of male chauvinistic mentality, someone was somewhat forceful.

As a result, he almost fell victim to a tragic scene of domestic violence. Only after Old Ancestor Longyan was alarmed did he narrowly avoid the tragedy of turning his young wife into a widow.

It was then that he suddenly realized that his wife was actually a hidden powerful figure.

And only then did he understand why Ruolei, Yuanrui, and those younger brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law were all so frightened of Liu Ruolan.

From then on.

Wang Shouzhe and Liu Ruolan began to live a harmonious and respectful married life, never “arguing” again!
