Chapter 1429: Clan Leader's Bloodline Advancement

“True Monarch, don’t worry, the next time there’s an opportunity to make money, I certainly won’t forget you.” The reason Wang Shouzhe entrusted Emperor Longchang and Saint Master Jiang to invite Yuling True Monarch this time was mainly for two reasons.

One was to prevent any unexpected events, and the other was because he felt Yuling True Monarch was powerful and had immense potential, thus he wanted to establish some connections and strengthen their relationship.

Having tasted sweetness this time, it would be easy to call her over the next time he needed help.

Moreover, Yuling True Monarch’s status, prestige, and connections in the Immortal Palace certainly surpass those of the Emperor and Saint Master. In urgent moments, inviting her to gather allies might even attract a True Immortal…

However, for someone with her potential in the Lingxu Realm, it’s clearly unsuitable to make her do grunt work. It’s not that she’s unwilling, but Wang Shouzhe feels it’s not cost-effective, and it would hinder her cultivation, wouldn’t it? After all, Yuling True Monarch does have some future prospects.

Extracting the Top-Grade Spiritual Vein, since His Majesty and Saint Master Jiang don’t need to seek the next advancement and frequently retreat into seclusion, with abundant time and still robust, they aren’t given the chance to showcase their residual heat.

“Alright, you must remember me.” Yuling True Monarch was slightly disappointed but still looked at Wang Shouzhe eagerly and said, “If that Blood Child Demon Monarch comes looking for trouble, you must remember to call me for help. Rest assured, my price will be very reasonable. However, Blood Child Demon Monarch is an ancient monster-level Lingxu; solely in terms of a duel, I’m not his match. At that time, you need to invite more strong allies. If you don’t know them, I can introduce them to you.”

“Certainly, certainly, True Monarch, please do think more about it at that time and invite several seniors.” Wang Shouzhe expressed his gratitude with satisfaction, having achieved his goal this time. Suddenly, he changed his tone, “True Monarch, my family recently acquired a batch of treasures, but we’re unable to determine what kind they are. With your extensive knowledge, we need to trouble you to identify them.”

“What kind of treasures? Show them to me.” Yuling True Monarch said with interest, “Could it be the treasures we previously dug out from the Blood Venerable relics?”

“It’s not like that. That’s another opportunity for our Wang Family.” While speaking, Wang Shouzhe took out the [Commander’s Care], which was a treasure styled like a Divine Martial Order, seemingly ordinary.

“This…” Yuling True Monarch’s charming eyes widened, “This seems to be the ‘Commander’s Care.’ During the Divine Martial Dynasty, legion commanders were all held by peak-level Lingxu Realm experts. When they are about to run out of lifespan, they use special methods to create such treasures, and once shattered, it could unleash the strength of an ordinary strike from the commander. Don’t underestimate this ordinary strike; each of those commanders was a very powerful existence, even an emperor like Longchang would be injured if he tried to withstand a wave.”

“If caught off guard and ambushed, even if one survives, they would lose a layer of skin.”

“Shouzhe, you actually have such treasures?” Emperor Longchang’s eyes suddenly went green, “How many do you have? When did you get them?”

Their Imperial Family also has a few such treasures… but they were all passed down from ordinary Lingxu Realm, only useful for bullying Divine Power Realm individuals.

“Not many, just a few. We obtained them before meeting Your Majesty.” Wang Shouzhe spoke calmly.

Emperor Longchang’s eyes changed, he gave Wang Shouzhe a wary glance: “You’ve been carrying them with you all along? What’s the intention here! Are you worried I might harm you and prepared to give me a surprise anytime?”

“Your Majesty, we’re allies, we’re on the same side.” Wang Shouzhe said helplessly, “I’ve studied Your Majesty’s behavior logic over these millennia. Though you’re short-tempered, you tend to get overly excited at times, enjoy showing off, and the older you get, the more childish…”

“Get to the point, quickly say but…” Emperor Longchang was feeling annoyed and rolled his eyes.

“This but…” Wang Shouzhe pondered and said, “Seems like there’s no but.”

“Wang Shouzhe you brat, now that you’ve grown, gotten capable, not regarding me…” Emperor Longchang nearly spat blood, and said angrily, “I’m not dead yet, I can still wield a sword!”

“Haha.” Wang Shouzhe laughed, “But in truth, Your Majesty is a benevolent ruler who cares about the people, always adhering to rules and principles, never bullying others casually. For example, the unified guidance pricing for ordinary grain Your Majesty established effectively ensured that unscrupulous Noble Families wouldn’t hoard during disasters, harming common people.”

“You rascal, you do have some vision after all.” Emperor Longchang suddenly became pleased, “To implement this national policy, I’ve offended quite a few Noble Families.”

“However, every national policy has both advantages and disadvantages, Your Majesty, let’s talk about the disadvantages…” Wang Shouzhe was eager to discuss the pros and cons of unified grain pricing in-depth, aiming to comprehensively analyze how to optimize the national policy…

“Hmph!” Emperor Longchang turned his head with a huff, taking a step outside the Blood Venerable relics, “I don’t have time to listen to your nonsense now; for such matters, go discuss with Emperor’s Son An. Now that the matter here is settled, I must go back and calculate Contribution Points with Little Xue’Er. Haven’t played cards in days, and my hands are itching. Old Jiang, let’s go; this round includes you.”

Then, he dragged Jiang Zhencang and dashed away gleefully, being of quite an age, he really didn’t want to listen to Wang Shouzhe’s lectures.

“Hehe~ Longchang has changed quite a bit over the years…” Yuling True Monarch said, stunned, “I find he actually seems a bit afraid of you.”
