"Third brother, something happened to the eldest brother!"
At noon the next day, Wang Shuang, who had just received the news, came to Taihe Restaurant in a hurry and told him about Wang Gu.
"Yesterday, my eldest brother received a mission to intercept and kill the team of monks in the Soul Palace. However, he has not returned yet. Even the sound-transmitting conch can't contact him. I'm afraid..."
"Second sister, eldest brother Jiren has his own destiny, and nothing will happen to him."
Of course Wang Xu knew what was going on with Wang Gu, but he was not worried because when Elder Fei and the others left last night, Wang Xu ordered Wang Gu to be released.
According to the script, after Wang Gu intercepted and killed the team of monks from the Soul Palace, he was chased by the Soul Palace and escaped after going through a lot of hardships.
Not only is he fine, so is the team of monks he led. As for Elder Fei and the other three, he will completely forget about it.
For ninth-level monks, it couldn't be easier to change the memories of lower-level monks.
If nothing else goes wrong, Wang Gu will be back this afternoon, and will be recognized by the upper echelons of the Wang family for successfully intercepting and killing the Soul Palace monks, and for leading his team back safely and intact under the pursuit of the Soul Palace.
The Wang family is a family system and an elite system. Wang Gu's surname is Wang, and he is a direct bloodline of the branch. The family will not be stingy with rewards for him.
"It would be great if that were the case, but I'm worried..."
"Second sister, there is nothing to worry about. You have to be calm when encountering big things. If your mind is not calm, it is easy to make wrong judgments. You are aware of my elder brother's abilities. You just don't believe what I say. You should trust me, right?"
With Wang Xu's comfort, Wang Shuang finally calmed down a little.
If you think about it carefully, Wang Gu's cultivation is so advanced that it is difficult to find an opponent in the sixth level. The place where he went on the mission is not a dragon's pond or a tiger's den.
Even if something goes wrong in the mission and the master of the bronze-level soul palace is chasing him, there is still a glimmer of hope.
"Second sister, you haven't told your family about the disappearance of your eldest brother, right?"
"No, I came to see you as soon as I received the news. In order not to worry my father, I will not inform my family until I have the exact news from my eldest brother."
"That's good. Let's wait first. Brother may not have had an accident. He may have encountered trouble along the way and was delayed by something."
"I hope so. The two elders of my family have already led a team to check. There should be news back before dark."
Wang Xu and Wang Shuang waited with peace of mind, one as steady as a mountain and the other upset.
Wang Shuang also admired Wang Xu from the bottom of his heart when she saw Wang Xu Taishan collapse without changing his expression. She didn't know that Wang Xu had already seen everything, and he was even the mastermind behind all this.
I only thought that Wang Xu had the demeanor of a general and was naturally calm. At this time, he was still thinking: "If the third brother had not become a waste, I am afraid he would have become a leader-like figure among the younger generation of the Wang family, right? There is no one in my family who is more talented than me.
It's not that there aren't any, but there aren't many people who amaze me, let alone people who are like the bright moon, eclipsing all the stars.
It's a pity that the third brother's cultivation level..."
Wang Shuang thought a lot for a while, and there was regret, pity, care, and a hint of relaxation in her eyes.
Wang Xu back then, before he was abolished, was really brilliant.
Not to mention his peers, even the elites of his family who were thousands of years older than him were suppressed by him, including her, the second sister.
Wang Shuang is hundreds of years older than Wang Xu, but his cultivation level is almost the same.
As long as Wang Xu is given time, with his talent of reaching the fifth level at the age of twenty-two, he may be able to reach the sixth level within the age of fifty.
This talent is very terrifying. You must know that the ancestor of the Wang family, Emperor Wuzhan, was already a hundred years old when he reached the sixth level.
Wang Shuang's talent is only at the ordinary elite level of her family. When she reached the sixth level, she was five hundred years old, and the difference in talent was ten times.
"What are you looking at, second sister?"
Wang Xu felt uncomfortable being looked at and couldn't help but ask.
"You seem more calm than before!"
Wang Shuang stared at him for a long time, but it was not without gain.
Wang Xu was stunned when he heard this, and said with a smile: "People always change. I have been a useless person for three years. Others insulted me, bullied me, and blamed me. I laughed at them all. How come there is no change?"
Of course Wang Xu would not say that he came here by taking away his body, and used his experiences over the years to find an excuse for his changes.
Hearing such an answer, the pity in Wang Shuang's eyes became stronger. Finally, he did not continue to think deeply, but changed the subject and said: "Actually, my family is not that easy to mess with. We are a branch and are naturally weak.
He killed one of our monks.
Fortunately for me, my eldest brother came to my family thousands of years before I did. By the time I came here to practice, my eldest brother had already made a name for himself.
The eldest brother was very miserable back then, and many people looked down upon him and suppressed him everywhere.
The eldest brother never complained about anything. He overcame all the difficulties on his own without even mentioning it to his family.
Today, the eldest brother has become the flagship figure among the younger generation of the Wang family. Although he is not as good as the other geniuses in the family, he is still one of the best among the geniuses and is surrounded by many disciples.
If this development continues, it will be absolutely fine for the eldest brother to take over from his father in ten thousand years. If he doesn't want to go back, he might be able to become an elder.
I also heard that several elders who are optimistic about eldest brother are interested in accepting a son-in-law, but eldest brother is just a piece of wood, and he actually wants to advance to the seventh level before considering the love between his children, which makes my father very angry."
The Wang family is an aristocratic family comparable to a large sect. The position of elder in the family can only be held by seventh-level monks, and the core elders above that cannot be considered except by eighth-level monks.
Wang Shuang talked about this, firstly, to change the topic, and secondly, to give herself confidence.
As he continued speaking sentence by sentence, Wang Gu's figure became more and more rounded and taller.
For a moment, Wang Xu almost believed that Wang Gu could escape by himself.
In this way, from noon to dark, Wang Shuang talked about Wang Gu, and also talked about many trivial things about the two of them in their home.
The main family is not a pure place. According to Wang Shuang, the dispute between the main family and the branches, especially the disputes between the young disciples, has reached a fever pitch.
The direct descendants of the family look down upon the disciples of the branch lineage, thinking that they are where they are today because of the family's credit.
Although the main family and its branches share the same ancestor for several generations, no one can deny that the Wang family only rose to prominence in the hands of Wang Wuzheng.
Of course, because there is a fighting emperor, such disputes will not be made public, and violators will be severely punished.
Secretly, the fight between the two sides has never stopped, and as the generations pass on, the relationship between the main family and the branches becomes more and more distant. Sooner or later, this kind of interest group with family as the link will have something similar to a family separation.
situation.
But for now, on the surface everything is still good and thriving.
"Struggles are always inevitable!" Wang Xu said with emotion.
"Yes, but it's much better now. Except for the two brothers Wang Chenglong and Wang Chenghu, and Wang Zekai from the branch, there are not many people in the younger generation who can beat my eldest brother."
When Wang Gu was mentioned, Wang Shuang's tone was filled with pride.
Wang Gu himself is also very ambitious. He is only 3,000 years old this year and has reached the sixth level of perfect cultivation. He is not far away from the seventh level.
Among the Wang family's children, even if they can't make it into the top five, they still have a place in the top ten.
Once he takes a step further and becomes a seventh-level monk, he will immediately be able to enter the top five. The worst thing in the future is to succeed Wang Zhan and become the next head of the family. Once that is done, it is not impossible to stay in the family and serve as the core elder.
"Second sister, third brother!"
In the evening, Wang and Xu were chatting, and familiar words rang in their ears.
Hearing the excitement and joy in the words, Wang and Xu quickly looked up.
In front of his eyes, Wang Gu, who was injured, was walking over with seven companions.
"Brother?"
Seeing Wang Gu appear, Wang Shuang was overjoyed and ran towards him: "Brother, you are finally back. I thought you..."
Wang Shuang couldn't speak any more, and her voice was choked with sobs.
Wang Gu laughed loudly and said with a smile: "Second sister, don't cry. We monks should fight in the world to seek a prosperous road. A little danger is nothing!"
"Big brother is indeed a big brother. These words are so heroic and desirable!"
Wang Xu also went up to him, pretending not to know anything, and asked: "Brother, are you in trouble during this trip?"
"It's a bit troublesome!"
Wang Gu paused when he heard the sound, nodded and said: "This is a long story to say."
