Chapter 227: Chapter 21 Shocking! Direct Lineage Successors Everywhere (Requesting Monthly Tickets)_2
This conversation made Wang Shouyue frown unconsciously.
Father fishing? Has the Ping’an Wang Family fallen to such a degree?
A dignified patriarch of the direct lineage, yet he also needs to go down to the river to fish?
Moreover, targeting a Tier Three Aquatic Ferocious Beast! This boast seems somewhat exaggerated.
A Tier Three Aquatic Ferocious Beast is particularly formidable, even more troublesome than a terrestrial beast of the same level. One mistake could lead to a disaster of boats destroyed and people dead.
Everyone knows that not even two or three Ancestor Spirit Platforms would dare to casually deal with a Tier Three Aquatic Ferocious Beast.
Wang Shouyue pondered in his heart, inevitably thinking less of the Ping’an Wang Family.
Thereafter, no more words were exchanged.
The ferry passed through the river on its way and finally arrived at Dingpu Ferry in Ping’an Town.
"Hmm?"
This Ping’an Wang Family’s ferry dock is evidently far different from Changning Guandu. No, to be precise, they are worlds apart.
Changning Guandu is dilapidated and shabby, perfectly matching Wang Shouyue’s imagination of a rural ferry dock. However, this Dingpu Ferry has completely exceeded his expectations.
All around are tall wooden buildings, both tidy and clean, and they even appear somewhat grand and majestic.
The people who guard the ferry and those disembarking are orderly and distinct, unlike the chaos and crowding at Changning Guandu.
The level of order here is rare even within Longzuo County; there is hardly a hint of rustic charm.
The old man and Wang Shouyue looked at each other, both somewhat confused.
"Uncle Three, have you been here before?" Wang Shouyue asked in a low voice.
"I was here once over twenty years ago." The old man also looked puzzled.
Over twenty years ago, this Dingpu Ferry was so desolate; how has it become so bustling in the blink of an eye?
It’s like a bustling small town.
Unable to grasp the situation, they noticed people gradually disembarking from the ferry and realized that entering Ping’an Town required registration.
Listening to various remarks, they felt like they weren’t entering Ping’an Town but rather the Governor’s Mansion.
Just then, Wang Shouye, carrying the Wang Family descendant’s identity token, first passed through the security checkpoint.
Standing eagerly at the checkpoint was a young man in a vigorous outfit, who upon seeing Wang Shouye, came forward and greeted excitedly, "Uncle Seven, after receiving your letter earlier, I’ve been waiting for you here. How come you’re so late, perhaps entangled by those young ladies who admire you?"
The young man appeared sixteen or seventeen years old, tall and robust, with muscles packed like a young bull calf.
"Zongsheng, you youngster are growing stronger, and even daring to joke with Uncle Seven now." Wang Shouye laughed and gave him a playful punch, "Your Second Brother has entrusted me with some Peiyuan Pills for you, all taken away."
This youngster called Wang Zongsheng is the head of the Ping’an Fish Stall and fishery sales—Wang Shouyi’s eldest son. His maternal clan and Wang Shouye are both from the Golden Sand Xu Family, and the two aren’t far apart in age, having been quite close since childhood.
"Uncle Seven, my apologies." Wang Zongsheng quickly feigned repentance and pleaded, "I rely entirely on my father’s supplements to quickly reach the Seventh Layer of the Qi Refining Realm and catch up to you, Uncle Seven, please don’t take them away."
The two exchanged banter for a while.
Yet this left the nearby old man and Wang Shouyue both shaken, almost in disbelief.
The boy named Zongsheng should indeed be of the ’Zong’ generation within the Ping’an Wang Family, right?
He looks so young but is already planning to reach the Seventh Layer of the Qi Refining Realm?
How could this be possible?
Then focusing his Qi Observation Technique on him, he found the young man truly hadn’t lied; he seemed to have reached the middle stage of the Sixth Layer of Qi Refining Realm.
This is simply unbelievable!
Could it be that this boy is the true heir of the direct lineage?
Especially Wang Shouyue, who was greatly shocked: this boy seems hardly inferior to what he was back then.
This is altogether perplexing.
Subsequently, the old man and Wang Shouyue began to follow others to register, eager to come out and inquire. Which of these two young men is truly the heir of the direct lineage?
Unexpectedly, the registration officer questioned, "You’re called Wang Shouyue? A descendant of the Ping’an Wang Family?"
"I’m named Wang Shouyue, but I’m a direct lineage descendant of Longzuo Wang Family." Wang Shouyue explained earnestly.
Then the officer cautiously asked the old man, "You’re called Wang Xiaozheng, of the Wang Family ’Xiao’ generation?"
"That’s correct." Wang Xiaozheng replied.
The registration officer then shouted, "Chief, chief, come quickly. Someone’s impersonating a descendant of our master’s Wang Family."
Impersonating?
Wang Xiaozheng and Wang Shouyue both froze. When did they impersonate Wang Family descendants?
Before they could speak, a large group of soldiers rushed forward, followed by several Black Tortoise War Generals directing them with solemn expressions.
Impersonating Wang Family descendants is a major taboo; such vile acts haven’t appeared in Ping’an Town for a long time.
Even Wang Shouye and Wang Zongsheng rushed over, ready to act any moment.
The old man Wang Xiaozheng hurriedly shouted, "Don’t misunderstand us, we aren’t impersonating. We are from the Longzuo Wang Family, not the Ping’an Wang Family."
"What Longzuo Wang Family? The Longyou Wang Family?" The leading Black Tortoise War General sternly ordered, "First, surrender, we can talk inside if there’s anything."
Several soldiers surged forward, aiming their long spears and great halberds at them.
