Chapter 61 - 61 "Old Ancestor Luo Qiu"_i
All the younger brothers and sisters at the scene were stunned.
Especially Wang Licui, her eyes were blinking and she was amazed beyond belief. Is that even possible?
One moment everything was fine, and the next moment they started fighting?
But Wang Shouzhe was impressed with Luo Jing’s strategy. It’s hard for ordinary people to think that it’s the perfect timing to strike immediately after their secret plan has been exposed. The less others expect it, the more successful it can be.
Unfortunately, she underestimated Wang Shouzhe.
“Luo Jing, let big brother teach you a lesson.” Wang Shouzhe said with a grin, “Next time you sneak attack, make sure to control your breathing and calm down. Your performance just now was decent, but your breathing was too tense, your heartbeat was too fast, and the way you threw the centipede was a bit sloppy. However, from a tactical awareness and idea aspect, it was not bad at all, and deserves praise.”
This mysterious magical world is very dangerous. A single battle could often determine life and death, even possibly affecting the rise and fall of a family. Wang Shouzhe did not wish to engage in battles but if a fight was inevitable, he wanted the survivors to be his own.
“Xiao Hong!” Luo Jing suddenly burst into tears, “Sniff sniff, fourth brother you’re too mean. I worked so hard to catch Xiao Hong.”
Um…
It seems he was a bit too heavy-handed this time. It wasn’t easy for Luo Jing to domesticate a poisonous insect like a centipede.
Just as Wang Shouzhe was about to comfort her,
Suddenly, his right arm hurt, and a tingling sensation traveled up his arm, numbing his whole body instantly. He knew in his heart that he had fallen for the trick! With a quick shake of his hand, a thumb-sized colorful spider flew out.
“Luo Jing! You…” Wang Shouzhe gasped in disbelief. He never expected the red-headed centipede to be nothing more than a distraction.
“Fourth brother, let Jing’er teach you a lesson as well.” Wang Luo Jing hopped back, and only after she was about six meters away did she say with a giggling smile, “First lesson, never underestimate any Insect Master. Their tactics can be very strange and unpredictable. Not all insects are bigger and more venomous. Some insects are so small that they can’t even be seen.”
“Second lesson, don’t underestimate any little girl. Their harmless and innocent appearance is just their best protective shell. In the future, when fourth brother is out and about, be careful of everyone, especially those quiet, obedient little girls.”
Upon hearing what Luo Jing had to say, Wang Shouzhe’s face reddened. He drew in a deep breath and said, “I have learned a valuable lesson from you, Jing’er. I will be more cautious in the future. Hey, what kind of spider is this? Its poison is quite potent…quickly give me the antidote.”
Wang Shouzhe sighed. Both Luotong and Shounuo had warned him not to underestimate Luo Jing, and now he has personally experienced how tricky she can be.
Tsk, tsk, when this girl grows up, she will undoubtedly be a handful. No, she’s already a handful right now.
“Antidote? What’s that?” Luo Jing asked innocently.
The look on Wang Shouzhe’s face was frozen, he was very close to spitting out blood. Wang Luo Jing, were you messing with me? You didn’t bring an antidote for a poisonous insect, and you carry it around with you?
Weren’t you afraid of getting bitten?
The most important thing is, you even dared to let it bite your brother…
“Luo Qiu, Fifth Brother, Sixth Brother, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and move! Don’t give Fourth Brother time to force out the poison with his Mysterious Energy.” Luo Jing shouted crisply, “Otherwise, you’ll just have to obediently stay in the clan school for a year.”
Of course, she was aware that this level of poison was not enough to do anything serious to her fourth brother.
“Fourth Brother, the Great Demon King, take my fist.” Her youngest sister, Wang Luo Qiu, who was only eleven, with her eyes shining brightly, stepped forward and used Wang’s Basic Boxing Method to attack Wang Shouzhe. Her boxing stance was impeccable and even better than many men’s.
She was a force to reckon with, her mastery in body movement and the boxing technique surprised Wang Shouzhe. Not only did the fifth sister Luo Jing trick him, but the sixth sister Luo Qiu also showed impressive skills. Also, unlike other girls who only focus on cultivating for higher levels, these two gave importance to body techniques, fighting techniques, swordsmanship, and even archery.
He had seriously underestimated Luo Qi.
At the same time, Wang Shou Yong and Wang Shoulian also rushed towards Wang Shouzhe: “Fourth Brother, forgive us, we were forced to do this. ”
Even Wang Licui screamed and set out to attack Wang Shouzhe, “Overthrow the Great Demon King.” It’s a pity that her movement and boxing skills were way too weak and it was clear that she hadn’t had any real practice.
“Good, good, good, your courage, has surprised me.” Wang Shouzhe started to laugh, “Unfortunately, you underestimated me. Allow me to show you what a true Great Demon King looks like.”
“Boom!”
As Wang Shouzhe was speaking, he turned his hand and the burst of Mysterious Energy sent Wang Shou Yong, who had reached the High Level Two of Qi Refinement Realm, flying.
When it comes down to mastering the basic skills, not even a few individuals from the older generation could compete with him.
Despite being the most gifted son, given tons of resources, and nurtured as a future ancestor-level character, how could he just be an empty shell with a high realm level?
Amidst the onslaught of his brothers and sisters, he moved as if he were a willow catkin in the wind – elusive and free-floating.
“Our family’s mid-level Profound Martial – Willow Catkin Body Method.” Wang Luo Jing, who was watching the fight, was astounded. Her fourth brother had hidden his skills too well, refining this movement technique to such a magnitude.
What astonished her more was Wang Shouzhe’s resistance to poison. Her colourful little spider, though not of the spirit insect level, could render a boar of two hundred and fifty kilograms unconscious with just a bite. Yet it seemed to have no effect on her fourth brother. He was a real monster, as expected of someone at the Great Demon King Level. We are really powerless against him!
We lost!
This bunch of brothers and sisters, plus a niece, were utterly defeated. They slumped to the ground, groaning in agony. The girls were in better shape, at least their faces were not hit.
Wang Shou Yong and Wang Shoulian, being young patriarchs of the family at fourteen and fifteen respectively, naturally got some extra ‘attention’ from Wang Shouzhe and were left battered and bruised.
“Haha, since we had an agreement, let’s gentlemanly accept our loss.” Wang Shouzhe said smugly, with hands on his back. “Do your homework well for the whole year. I believe that the children of our Wang family are all promising and responsible.”
Upon his words, all their faces contorted bitterly. This meant they were going to have a tough life ahead.
“Humph.” Wang Luoqiu, the youngest, was brimming with determination. “I’ll study hard and refine my cultivation this year and take you on again next year.”
“Bravo, I welcome your challenges next year. Luoqiu, I saw that you are the most vigorous. Keep it up and spur everyone on.” Wang Shouzhe gave a relaxed smile, his hands still on his back, and left gracefully.
Once he was gone…
The siblings and a niece staggered to their feet, looking at each other helplessly. Wang Shouzhe, that Great Demon King, was indeed difficult to handle!
“Cheer up, everyone.” Wang Luoqiu began, “No matter how powerful our fourth brother is, he is just one person. We have five. If we each level up once a year, things will be different next year”
Leveling up once was easier said than done. They all rolled their eyes at Wang Luoqiu. Did she think everyone else was a monster like her, being at the second level of Qi Refinement just at eleven?
“Either way, I won’t tolerate it. Whoever lags behind will get beaten up,” threatened Wang Luoqiu. “I will set a goal for everyone. Wang Luojing, you should at least get to the high segment of Level Two next year and become a real first-ranked Insect Master, managing two spirit insects, including the Purple Crystal Spirit Bee. Then your fighting strength will have the upper hand, even against those at Level Four.”
Wang Luojing’s eyes sparkled. It was true. If she really reached that step, even her twenty-year-old brother Wang Shounuo wouldn’t stand a chance against her. She heard that he finally progressed to the Level Four of Qi Refinement a few days ago. It was time for a friendly match.
“Wang Shou Yong, you’re at the high segment of Level Two now and ashamedly at fifteen. Worse, your basics are weak,” Wang Luoqiu criticized. “I don’t ask much. Next year, you should at least reach the Mid-Level Three and work on solidifying your basics. Otherwise, don’t blame me for beating you up every time I see you.”
Doesn’t ask much? Wang Shou Yong nearly broke into tears. It’s was so embarrassing to be lectured by his younger sister. But Luoqiu was indeed intimidating. He already didn’t stand a chance against her now. If he didn’t pull himself up, he might get beaten up daily.
“Wang Shoulian, where is the spirit of our Wang man? Stop sulking!” Wang Luoqiu grabbed him by the collar. “You’re my blood brother. We were born of the same parents. How come you’re only at Level Two at fourteen? Ahh, it’s all my fault as your sister. I didn’t push you enough.”
Wang Shoulian was on the verge of tears. Though being in Level Two at fourteen was a bit slow, it wasn’t that disgraceful, was it? Look at our big cousin, Wang Zongwei. At twenty, he was only at the high segment of Level Two. How did I end up with a monster-like sister! The pressure was enormous.
“I don’t care. That’s your task for next year. If you can’t get to the third level of Qi Refinement by then, just wait and see how I crack down on you!” Wang Luoqiu forcefully assigned him the task. “Also, remember to practice the movement technique and fighting technique with me every day.”
Reaching the third level of Qi Refinement… that’s a lot of pressure! But he didn’t have the option to refuse. He couldn’t lodge a complaint if his sister beat him up.
“What about me? What about me?” Wang Licui asked. “Do I also have to strive for the mid-segment of Level Three next year?”
“You?” Wang Luoqiu examined her from head to toe, then shook her head helplessly. “You eat too much, weak in punches and kicks. Even if you reach the third level of Qi Refinement, it’s useless. Okay then, next year, you just cheer for us and manage the logistic.”
How irritating!
Wang Licui pouted her lips. She was supposed to be the eldest sister!
Hmph, Wang Luoqiu, I won’t forget this! It’s cyclical – some time you’re up, and sometimes you’re down. I’ll seek our old ancestor’s advice to up my game. I will definitely reclaim my position as the elder sister.
At last, Wang Luoqiu, with hands on her back, mimicking Wang Shouzhe’s walking posture, said, “As for me, Wang Luoqiu, a talented young girl who appears only once in a century, bearing the heavy pressure for the rise of our family, I will set a small goal now. By next year, my cultivation base will be at the High Level Three.”
What?
Are you out of your mind, Wang Luoqiu? This is a SMALL goal? Are you aiming to fly to the sky? At twelve, being at the high segment of Level Three, are you planning to compete with our Great Demon King, Fourth Brother?
“Haha, I heard a rumor that the family sequence road is about to open.” Wang Luoqiu, with her hands on her back and innocent face turned towards the sky, said, “I, Wang Luoqiu, a lonely genius girl, shoulder the hope and destiny of our family’s rise. In the future, I am bound to become a goddess like Longyan Old Ancestor. By then, even the Great Demon King Wang Shouzhe will respectfully call me Old Ancestor Luoqiu. Hahaha~ “
