The two girls have reaped their rewards and in their satisfaction, have started trading with each other.

In contrast, the two older boys at home are still locked in battle with their respective opponents. Their opponents, who were only at the high level two of the Vital Energy Refining Realm, excelled at joining forces and attacking together.

Forced into a corner, the brothers had no choice but to team up. The battle between them was heated, evenly matched.

More importantly, the scar-faced bandit leader had not yet made a move.

Among the bandits, his cultivation base was the highest, nearly reaching the fifth level of the Vital Energy Refining Realm. It wasn’t easy for an independent cultivator like him, to reach this level in his early forties.

They were not like the clan disciples and heads of households who received substantial support each year, and even got extra rewards if they performed well.

The cultivation resources for independent cultivators were often very unstable, the majority of which they had to risk their lives for.

Some might say, since independent cultivators are so poor, why not join the prominent families as heads of households? Such an opportunity was indeed one of the ways out for independent cultivators, but the recruitment standards of every prominent family were stringent, requiring clear backgrounds and good morals as the minimum requirement.

Even so, most prominent families were still reluctant to recruit independent cultivators. They preferred to stick to their own path of cultivating their charges from a young age.

If the prominent family needed the services of independent cultivators, they would usually hire them as disposable pawns or use them to do some dirty deeds.

The scar-faced independent cultivator hadn’t made a move because he was being watched by Wang Shouzhe all the time.

The young man, who looked just eighteen or nineteen, gave him an unfathomable feeling, clearly, his strength was far superior.

This terrifying oppressive feeling was something he had only experienced when facing advanced stage masters in the Vital Energy Refining Realm.

Such a young advanced stage master of the Vital Energy Refining Realm would definitely be a legitimate son, lavishly nurtured by the prominent family and destined to follow the path of the Spiritual Platform.

In Ping’an Town, there was only one individual who had reached such a level in the rumors.

He had tried several times to escape, but he always remained within Wang Shouzhe’s line of sight. He knew that if he made a move, he would be met with a thunderous blow from Wang Shouzhe.

At this point, he couldn’t bear it any longer, swallowing his saliva, he said, “Your Excellency must be Wang Shouzhe, the clan leader of the Ping’an Wang family. Given that I have fallen into your hands, I admit defeat.” His name was, of course, not his real name. In the world of independent cultivators, similar names could be found everywhere.

Hehe- ” Wang Shouzhe didn’t respond, only continuing to watch the battle between Wang Shou Yong and Wang Shoulian. As for Scar Fifth, not knowing Wang Shouzhe’s intentions, he could only sit still and wait.

The two men of the Wang family, who previously had an average work ethic and mediocre cultivation due to pressure from their elders, struggled because most of the family’s resources were tilted towards Wang Shouzhe.

Therefore, their adaptation to cultivation only remained at a subsistence level, never daring to dream about walking the path of the Spiritual Platform.

It wasn’t until Wang Luoqiu stirred things up that it “provoked” their desperate cultivation. They were showing some promise, but their opponents were equally skilled, keeping the scales evenly balanced.

This time they came out to suppress the bandits, Wang Shouzhe was planning to kill two birds with one stone, not to let any bandit get away, to train his brothers and sisters, and to establish a correct worldview for them.

The fight was going on for so long without any results.

Wang Luoqiu started her sarcastic attacks again, “Wang Shou Yong, Wang Shoulian, can you be any more useless? Luo Jing, let’s each pick one and end this.” Her eyes were filled with excitement, clearly eager to make another score to fatten up her purse.

The two men, red in the face and gritting their teeth, started to fight back with force. Finally, after several risky attacks, they managed to take down the two independent cultivators. Their performance was only mediocre at best.

The Wang family’s “Xuan Yuan Technique” is a middle-grade cultivation technique, and all kinds of basic movement techniques and combat skills in the family are good. They should have built a solid foundation. In comparison, the independent cultivators who are usually incomplete in even the “Low-grade cultivation technique” should have the relative advantage.

However, they had to exchange injuries before they barely managed to defeat their opponents on the same cultivation realm.

Their faces were naturally red, but Wang Shou Yong and Wang Shoulian had thickened their skins due to their sister’s frequent ridicule and quickly learned to claim their spoils of war just like the two girls.

“Well done, there seems to be some grinding effect.” Wang Shouzhe somewhat accepted it and praised them, “Shou Yong, Shou Lian, you both fought bravely and have improved a lot. Although you are injured, as men, we must weather some storms to see the rainbow. Go and get your wounds dressed.”

He had been watching them earlier. If his younger brothers were in great danger, he would naturally intervene immediately.

“Yes, Fourth Brother.” The two boys obediently moved aside to dress their wounds, with a flush of triumph on their faces. This came from both the joy of victory and the delight of being praised by their elder brother.

The family elders had stricter rules for the boys than the girls, which generally resulted in more down-to-earth personalities. As for the girls, in their view, they were destined to marry someday and it was enough for them to be decent.

Wang Shouzhe was the brother they admired and revered the most. To be praised by him was a first for them, and they were very pleased.

“Not bad, you guys have shown some manliness, and have surprised me a bit. It seems that my special training for you guys has not been in vain.” Even Wang Luoqiu, who had been sarcastically speaking earlier, alongside Wang Luo Jing, her face slightly pale, helped to apply the medicine for her two brothers and bandage the wounds.

Normally, she may come across as harsh, but in the end, they were siblings with a common bloodline. How could she not feel sorry for them when they were injured?

At this time, Wang Shouzhe finally turned his attention to the scar-faced independent cultivator, calmly speaking, “Surrender, you stand no chance.”

Scar Fifth’s face was ashen, and his beads of perspiration were falling like rain. “Mr. Wang, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have been deceived by the Liu and Zhao clans and helped them commit such atrocious acts. As long as you spare me, I will hand over all the evidence to you, to ensure that the Liu and Zhao clans ’ receive their due punishment.”

He keenly understood the deep grudges between the Wang and Zhao and Liu clans.

“Sounds tempting.” Wang Shouzhe responded with a cold expression, “Sadly, if I agree to this, how could I answer to my conscience? The only path left for you is surrender and confession. Then we can ensure you a dignified death.”

“If… if you don’t agree, you cannot get the evidence.” Scar Fifth threatened ominously, “You will lose a golden opportunity to deal with the Liu and Zhao clans.”

“I don’t care whether you confess or not.” Wang Shouzhe calmly replied, “Your evidence means nothing to me. It wouldn’t be enough to contradict the Liu and Zhao clans.”

“You!” Scar Fifth gradually became ferocious, like a cornered beast. “Alright, you forced me into this. I have no choice but to fight!” His only route to survival had been blocked by Wang Shouzhe, so he resolved to swallow a Dan medicine pill.

In an instant.

His complexion turned crimson, his eyes filled with brutal ferocity, his Mysterious Energy began surging around his body and his form seemed to swell up.

“Brother, be careful. That’s a Frenzy Pill. They say that after consuming one, the user can fight beyond their level.” Wang Luo Jing was greatly worried, pulling out her Worm flute.

Even Wang Luoqiu grew pale: “That’s vile, he actually took a Frenzy Pill.

Brother, let’s work together and take him down.”

“No need. He’s too dangerous for you to handle, stay back.” Wang Shouzhe casually pulled out his sword, striding leisurely towards the Independent Cultivator, “I arranged this day for everyone to gain experience. Remember this moment and never underestimate your enemy. They might be hiding some lifesaving tricks.”

“Yes, Fourth Brother.” “Yes, Four Brother.” “Wang, Fourth Brother, be careful.”

Wang Luoqiu also noticed the man was extremely dangerous, starting to worry for Wang Shouzhe.

“Roar!”

The Independent Cultivator, with his eyes full of cruel bloodlust, gripped his giant knife and slashed frenziedly at Wang Shouzhe. The forceful, domineering aura around the knife seemed to threaten to smash the entire warehouse in two.

Wang Shouzhe’s expression didn’t change. He casually thrust his sword, nimbly lightning-fast, aimed at the side of the knife.

“Clang!”

A metallic noise rang out, as Wang Shouzhe broke through the ferocious knife attack with ease. The blade flew backwards; the muscular Independent Cultivator was knocked back as if struck by a hefty blow and staggered backwards.

“Impossible!” The fragment of logic left in Scar Fifth’s mind induced panic. He was confident that his strike, even if failed to injure, could have forced his opponent to retreat.

“Sigh!”

“You severely underestimated the capabilities of the Wang Family and myself.” Wang Shouzhe lightly sighed, “You, thinking that you could risk your life against me by merely taking a Frenzy Pill. Heh.”

After a soft chuckle, Wang Shouzhe’s figure dashed towards him like smoke, fast, yet elusive.

He struck with his sword.

A thick, white sword glow formed, like a bolt of lightning, it aimed straight for the Independent Cultivator’s head.

“Willow Catkin Body Method,”

“Wang Clan Xuan Yuan Sword Technique.”

Wang Luo Jing and Wang Luoqiu both recognized this method and technique of the Wang family almost at the same time, a Middle Grade Movement Technique and a Middle Grade Sword Technique.

Previously, they had experienced Wang Shouzhe’s Willow Catkin Body Method, which was elusive, unfathomable, and frustrating. He hit them again and again without even letting them touch the corners of his clothes. However, this was the first time they had seen their Fourth Brother use the family’s ultimate technique, the “Xuan Yuan Sword Technique”.

“Clang!”

Scar Fifth blocked just barely, stepping back while spitting blood. But before he could even gasp for breath, an even more powerful second strike closely followed.

Next, he blocked…

The third strike!

“Clang!” Amidst a bell-like metallic sound, Scar Fifth’s sword broke into two halves. The impact knocked him backwards, and he spat blood while falling onto the ground, unable to rise again.

“Hmm!”

The four younger siblings were witnessing Wang Shouzhe’s true skills for the first time. All of them were stunned and excited, thinking: Fourth Brother is truly powerful, extremely powerful!

“This is the power of our Wang Family’s Xuan Yuan Technique combined with

Xuan Yuan Sword Technique.” Wang Shouzhe landed lightly as if he had just done a trivial matter. Smiling, he explained to them, “Its potency is ordinary during the early stages, but as the mastery of Xuan Yuan Technique progresses, the power becomes more profound. You all must diligently cultivate the Xuan ’ Yuan Technique. This method becomes stronger the more you progress.”

“Yes, Fourth Brother.”

Even Wang Luoqiu’s face turned red with excitement, nodding repeatedly, filled with admiration for Wang Shouzhe.
