Chapter 364: Chapter 76: I Just Want to Quietly Alchemize_2
At that time, Wang Shouye was only about forty years old.
But quite obviously, this was not the achievement that Wang Shouzhe wanted. He didnât need Wang Shouye to make money, he just needed him to spend money to accelerate his growth and to become a level three, or even level four, Alchemist.
âI guess Iâll just refine some level one Dan medicine occasionally to keep up the feel.â Wang Shouye, knowing his fourth brotherâs big ambitions, helplessly spoke, âFortunately, refining more advanced Dan medicine will also enhance my understanding of the lower-level ones.â
âDonât relax in your cultivation either. Train the furnace kids properly and let them watch over the fire in their daily work.â Wang Luotong advised, âYour fourth brother treats you like a Celestial-type cultivator. Itâs not easy to cultivate an alchemist, so itâs natural to let him live as long as possible.â
With that, the pressure on Wang Shouye increased even more.
However, he understood his fourth brotherâs ambitions. He was cultivating him as an alchemist regardless of cost, with a target of at least a level four alchemist, and possibly even a level five alchemist. Therefore, he must walk the path of a Celestial being.
Otherwise, if he became a qualified level four alchemist but hadnât yet contributed to the family before he died of old age, wouldnât that become a big joke?
âI will definitely work hard and will not fail to meet the expectations of the fourth brother.â Wang Shouye said with a serious expression. Then, he shifted the conversation to Wang Luotong, âSister Luotong, what about you? Over the years, havenât you had someone you like?â
âNo.â Wang Luotong simply said. Then, she cast a glance at Wang Shouye and joked, âI canât help it. The men in our family are just too excellent. Whether your fourth brother or you Shouye, you are already at the middle segment of Qi Refinement Level Seven at the age of twenty, a mature level one alchemist, and you look so handsome and elegant.â
âIn the whole of Changning, even among the legitimate children of those prominent families, who can compare with you? How can Fourth Sister settle for less? Alas, having such outstanding brothers is also a heavy burden.â
âErâŠâ Wang Shouye shook his head helplessly, âSo Sister Luotong, you mean to say you donât plan to get married?â
âWeâll see.â Wang Luotong laughed openly, âAnyway, Iâm aiming for the Spirit Platform Realm, or else I wonât be content for the rest of my life. In the worst case, Iâll just recruit a handsome Independent Cultivator. That way, I can also contribute to our family lineage.â
âIndeed, Sister Luotong, you are so outstanding that ordinary heirs probably wonât catch your eye. But I believe that the right person will appear in your life.â Wang Shouye shifted the topic, âLetâs not talk about this. Sister, do you have important business here in Changning? Do you need any assistance from me?â
âYour fourth brother sent me to Qianma Town to take over the fixed assets of the Huangfu Clan. I just stopped by Changning on my way so I thought Iâd cheer you up.â Wang Luotong laughed, âDonât worry, this time the Old Ancestor Xiaohan will be there, and I, Shou Yong, and Zongwei will be assisting.â
Assisting.
That was obviously modest!
In reality, the Old Ancestor Xiaohan, as the elder, would not personally take care of everything. The true management would depend on the younger generation like Wang Luotong, Wang Shou Yong, and Wang Zongwei.
As for the younger generation, Wang Shouzhe doesnât hesitate to cultivate them if they show the willingness to grow. His demands are high and he wants them to get ample experience and be able to stand on their own.
Itâs a necessary evil, isnât it?
The family is growing too fast, and there arenât many members, so Wang Shouzhe has high expectations of the younger generation.
With high standards and strict requirements, the results are gratifying. The current young generation of the Wang family has already proven their worth and can stand on their own.
This time, itâs the test of abilities for Wang Luotong, Wang Shou Yong, and Wang Zongwei.
Just as they were talking.
All of a sudden, there were two girlsâ voices from outside the house: âIs Shouye here?â
âAgainâŠâ
Wang Shouye slapped his forehead, quite speechless.
He just wanted to refine a piece of Dan medicine peacefully. Why was this so hard?
Helplessly, he walked out of the door, gave a bow to the two girls, and prepared to perfunctorily explain something to keep them away.
Suddenly.
A bunch of richly-dressed young people âswarmedâ in from outside the door.
The one leading them was a man in his twenties.
He was dressed in a Profound Martial uniform, wore a jade crown, and had a ceremonious sword hanging from his waist, his demeanor stern.
When he saw Wang Shouye, Lei Yanyun, and Huangfu Qianqian standing together, his face suddenly darkened.
âBrother, why are you here?â Lei Yanyunâs face changed.
The man she called âbrotherâ had a cold face: âLei Yanyun, do you realize that I am your brother? You, as a direct bloodline lady of Lei Family from the Celestial ones in Anyuan, have been shamelessly throwing away your dignity here.â
âBrother, how have I been disgraceful?â Lei Yanyunâs face turned pale, and she retorted pitifully: âWhatâs wrong with me having a man I love? Even our father has not reproached me. â
Wang Shouye recognized this richly-dressed man. He was no other than Lei Bowu, the second son of Lei family, one of the most reputable young masters in Changning.
And Wang Shouye had never had any dealings with him before.
âLei Yanyun, what nonsense are you talking about?â Hearing Lei Yanyun dared to counter him, Lei Bowu was instantly enraged, âLei Family raised you, not to let you act willfully. Donât you know? The Celestial family, Zhang Clan in Anyuan, has proposed a marriage alliance with our family.â
