Protect Our Clan Leader

As these words were spoken, many female disciples of the Changchun Valley lineage began to cheer.

Senior Brother Jinshan was looking forward to joining in the cheering, but seeing the sparkle in the eyes of his junior sisters as they looked at Wang Shouzhe, he swallowed his words.

Ah, these junior sisters are just too young. They still don’t know that good-looking men can’t be trusted.

Remembering the past, he…

Senior Brother Jinshan shook his head silently, appearing to recall something from the past. He suddenly seemed a bit more world-weary, looking as though he was burdened with an intriguing story…

While the disciples of Changchun Valley cheered, those from the Valley of Ten Thousand Butterflies and Leisure Peak felt disgruntled.

“Junior Sister Luo Jing, Junior Sister Luo Qiu, don’t care if he is your older brother! This is about the honor of each peak and lineage. Don’t hold back when it’s time to fight! Our Master is watching from above.”

Despite their prevailing conflicts, the disciples of both these sects unanimously pointed their spears at Wang Shouzhe, voicing their discontent loudly.

However, their shouts were of no use.

The two sisters on the stage remained unmoved.

“I don’t want to fight Fourth Brother~ You should go and test your skills with the others.” Wang Luo Jing glanced at Wang Shouzhe with a profound glance before she turned around and walked off the stage without a moment’s hesitation.

Wang Luoqiu hesitated slightly, but finally said, “Today is not the right time. Sister will learn from Fourth Brother’s techniques another time. Excuse me.”

With that, she turned and left the stage too.

It’s not that they couldn’t fight. After all, she often practiced with her fourth brother. It’s just that if they did fight, it would definitely damage her future Empress image… because the outcome would definitely be disastrous!

Seeing both girls walk off the stage without a second word, everyone was left stunned.

The Valley of Ten Thousand Butterflies fell silent.

So did Leisure Peak.

Only Changchun Valley had their spirits lifted. They felt that Wang Shouzhe had redeemed some of their honor. Although they had won without even a fight, it felt somewhat anticlimactic, but it was still better than losing.

“Let it be~” The team leader Zhang Xiuping smiled at Wang Luoqiu, “After all, you’re family, so it’s normal that you wouldn’t want to fight your brother. Today we will give him that much. Let’s go to the Mysterious Ice Palace and see for ourselves.”

Mentioning the Mysterious Ice Palace, all disciples from the Leisure Peak lineage got visibly excited.

Since the Mysterious Ice Palace has always been dominant, they often learn from others. There’s no doubt that it would be a glorious moment for Xuanyao Lineage to take a look.

Hearing this, neither did the Valley of Ten Thousand Butterflies want to be left behind. They immediately huddled around Wang Luo Jing and said, “Let’s go to the Mysterious Ice Palace as well.”

Right as the two groups were about to embark,

Suddenly,

The voice of Wang Shouzhe came from the stage.

“Gentlemen, please wait.”

“May I ask, is there anything else you would like to advise us on?”

Zhang Xiuping and Apprentice Muyuanbai looked at each other, raising their eyebrows in unison to look at Wang Shouzhe.

They were being patient towards Shouzhe mainly because of the respect they held for Luo Qiu and Luo Jing. Otherwise, as Core Disciple of Xuanyao Lineage, they wouldn’t bother themselves with an insignificant outer disciple.

“I wouldn’t dare advise you.” Wang Shouzhe gave a soft chuckle, remaining calm, “Since you have had the chance to observe our Changchun Valley, I naturally have to represent Changchun Valley to observe yours.”

Zhang Xiuping and Muyuanbai both laughed on hearing this.

“So, Junior Brother Shouzhe, how do you plan on observing?” Zhang Xiuping asked, his tone casual and relaxed.

He suspected that Wang Shouzhe was probably trying to save face for Changchun Valley. Considering Luo Qiu’s reputation, he wouldn’t mind sending a disciple to help him achieve this.

Unexpectedly, Wang Shouzhe’s gaze fell on him and Muyuanbai.

“I heard that those above the age of sixty can’t participate in our tradition, so I assume Senior Brother Xiuping and Brother Muyuanbai are still under sixty?” Wang Shouzhe appeared calm, as if discussing an ordinary matter, “May I ask which of the senior brothers can come down to the stage to enlighten me?”

“What?!”

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

Had Luo Qiu’s brother lost his mind? He dared to challenge two Core Disciples!

Zhang Xiuping and Muyuanbai were less than pleased.

Both were leading figures among their generation and proud individuals who had never learned to swallow their pride. Surely, the dignity of the Core Disciple wouldn’t tolerate any disrespect!

They were only courteous to Luo Qiu’s brother because of Luo Qiu. If this kid doesn’t appreciate that, he can’t blame them for what comes next!

Zhang Xiuping and Muyuanbai exchanged a glance and immediately decided.

Muyuanbai lightly jumped, walking in the air as if it was solid ground and casually ascended the stage.

Seeing this, the Changchun Valley disciples immediately tensed up while the female disciples of the Valley of Ten Thousand Butterflies couldn’t resist stopping in their tracks.

Muyuanbai had his hands clasped behind his back, wearing a solemn expression. A cold air lingered between his brows, “Brother, if we duel, I will not show mercy.”

Wang Shouzhe remained calm and composed, bowed slightly, “Naturally, please do give your guidance, Brother Muyuanbai.”

“Alright!”

Muyuanbai suddenly became earnest.

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

The sword, thin as cicada’s wings, was bathed in a shimmering green light. In his palm, it darted restlessly around like a live fish.
